Dimensional Manifestation

The 22nd floor of Aincrad.

Here, it is a layer that has been eroded by wind and sand all year round. It is basically yellow and misty during the day, and there are no stars and moons at night. Only the dim light revealed in the room can illuminate a small area.

Few players are willing to come to this floor full of Gobi and desert to practice. The "Grim Reaper" lurking in the sand, carrying highly poisonous creatures, has even brought an indelible shadow to many players' hearts.

And somewhere on the 22nd floor, on the deserted Gobi where the wind blows, there is a slender figure in a black robe with a veil covering his mouth and nose, walking forward alone and with difficulty.

After an unknown amount of time, the black-robed player raised his head and looked forward, finally at the end of his field of vision, he vaguely saw some slender black shadows. This made the player heave a sigh of relief, muster up his energy again, and keep moving forward.

As the oncoming wind became more and more violent, the black-robed player had to lower his body a little more to ensure that he would not be blown down by the wind.

go and go... go and go...

The slender black shadow in the distance turned into a thick stone pillar in front of him, and the player in black robe finally arrived at the destination of his trip - the Gobi Stone Forest.

The Gobi Stone Forest on the 22nd floor is also named Death Stone Forest by the players. It is a place where everyone talks about it. Even though the front-line players have already conquered the 25th floor of the maze, and their levels and equipment have improved a lot compared to before, few people still dare to come to this place.

As we all know, the entire 22nd floor is shrouded in violent wind and sand all the year round, and when the strong wind blows to the Gobi Stone Forest, the wind speed between the stone pillars will be further accelerated because of the obstruction of the stone pillars, and it can even blow people up. Degree.

In addition, on the stone pillars in the stone forest, there is also a highly poisonous rock spider. This kind of giant spider, which looks no different from a rock, usually clings to the stone pillar and remains motionless, making it difficult for people to distinguish. And when there is a prey approaching, they will slam down, relying on the thrust of the strong wind, quickly pounce on the prey, and inject their own poison into the prey.

If placed in other environments, the highly poisonous rock spider is actually not that difficult to deal with. After all, apart from being extremely poisonous, this kind of spider's data is not excellent in other aspects. As long as the players keep a good distance, it is not difficult to kill them.

However, the highly poisonous rock spiders that live in the Gobi Stone Forest and know how to use camouflage and wind power to hunt are among the top three monsters that players do not want to face. It can be said that countless players are frightened by the news .

If possible, the black-robed players would actually not want to come here, but there is no way, who called the president of their guild, he is a very worry-free guy.

Swiping down in front of his face with his fingers, he took out the heavy armor he had prepared in advance from his backpack and put it on, and then took out the anti-poison potion and took it. Then the black-robed player walked towards the inside of the stone forest with the unfamiliar shield and dagger in hand. go.

Her most commonly used weapon is actually a long whip, like a shield and a short sword, which she only touched a few times when she was just trapped in the game a few months ago.

The terrifying reputation of the highly poisonous rock spider, coupled with the weapon he was not good at, made the black-robed player feel very uneasy, and at the same time, he was even more dissatisfied with his own president.

‘So why does the president have to go to such a ghost place to practice leveling? And no reply to emails! '

"President~! Where are you, President~! Yes, ah bah bah bah!"

After pouring a mouthful of sand, the black-robed player gave up shouting. The main reason is that the wind here is too strong, and the sound will be blown away by the strong wind as soon as it is made, and it cannot be transmitted very far.

In desperation, the black-robed player had no choice but to carefully go deep into the stone forest step by step. Every time she moved a certain distance, she would stop and look up at the top of the stone pillar carefully. She would explore again only after she didn't find the figure that made her teeth itch.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, the black-robed player knew that he should be very close to his goal. Because from just now, she has not been attacked by the poisonous rock spider again.

In this case, it could only be that someone cleaned up the nearby spiders not long ago.

While speeding up his pace, the black-robed players did not relax their vigilance at all. After carefully searching one stone pillar after another, finally, the hard work paid off, and she finally found the figure of her worry-free president at the top of a thin and tall stone pillar.

"President~! Hey~! President~!"

The black-robed player stood under the stone pillar, shouting hoarsely toward the top. However, she shouted until her voice broke, and the figure at the top of the stone pillar still sat motionless, completely ignoring her intentions.

"Really, I'm so mad!"

Gritting his teeth, the black-robed player hesitated for a moment, then took out a fist-sized white crystal ball from his backpack and threw it into the air.

‘Om——! '

The crystal ball exploded, releasing harsh buzzing sounds and dazzling glare from it, even in the howling wind, it still spread far away.

"Ah~!"

Lin Tianya, who was meditating with his eyes closed and trying to become one with nature, was startled by the sharp sound that suddenly squeezed into his ears, and then his body lost his balance, and was blown by the strong wind and fell headlong.

'Boom! '

Lin Tianya plunged into the ground with his head down and his feet up. Just looking at it gave him a headache.

"President!? Are you okay!"

The black-robed player screamed and ran over. She didn't expect that her actions would cause such a big accident. At this moment, she felt so regretful that she wanted to die, she wished she could travel back to a few seconds ago and give herself a slap in the face.

'Swipe~! '

The cold light suddenly appeared, and the spear that Lin Tianya had been holding tightly in his hand suddenly flew towards the black-robed player at high speed, and then wiped the opponent's helmet, nailing a highly poisonous rock spider that swooped in from the air. On the stone pillar next to it.

Obviously, the crystal explosion just now not only knocked Lin Tianya down, but also attracted the attention of the highly poisonous rock spiders lurking nearby.

"Yuri? Why did you come here?"

After struggling to pull his head out of the ground, Lin Tianya grinned and moved his neck, while looking curiously at his vice president.

Speaking of which, although he fell off the stone pillars a lot during this period of time, it really didn't happen a few times that he fell headfirst so hard like today.

"...President, have you forgotten? Today is the day of the 25th floor maze boss strategy meeting. I sent you an email yesterday to remind you, but you didn't see it?"

After carefully checking up and down (in fact, you only need to look at the health bar), and found that Lin Tianya was indeed fine, Yulier was relieved, and then said helplessly.

She couldn't remember how many times similar situations had happened. For this, besides being tired, she is still tired...
