Cataclysm King - #87 - Chapter 87: clean up

  Chapter 87 Clearance

  The plot of “Greedy Mine” is not complicated.

   It’s just that some information was concealed and misled by the NPC, which made people feel a little confused.

  At this moment, Ji Xun’s thoughts are roughly clear.

  Currently there are clues:

  A year ago, something happened in the depths of the buried mountain mine. Blacksmith Sanji was the only survivor, but somehow he became a werewolf.

   Many people died in Townsend half a year ago, and it is said that it was a plague.

   There used to be an investigation team sent by the lord, and there were witches and knights who were good at curing plagues, but they all disappeared.

  The fact is that the plague never happened.

in conclusion:

   There has never been any plague. Many people died in Townsend Town, and they were killed by werewolves from beginning to end.

   Just not the werewolf in the mine now.

   Instead Sanji the Blacksmith and Baan the Mayor, or maybe there are others.

  The population reduction cannot be concealed, and then the false report becomes a plague.

  The lord sent someone to investigate.

  They killed the lord investigation team, infected more werewolves.

  Everything is to hide the secrets deep in the mine.

   Blacksmith Sanji was injured, and his magic power was out of control, which may have been caused by the battle with the investigation team.

   As for why the witcher was recruited, it may be because covering up a lie requires another lie.

   Or something else.

   Like food.

  Ji Xun felt that he might have to see what was on the fourth floor of the mine before he could reveal the final answer.

   What they have to do now is to kill the B-level disaster that was drawn out by the black wolf group.

  The mine is like a deep well, and the sound of battle echoes in it for a long time.

   Not long after, Ji Xun led the three of them to a guillotine mine.

   This used to be a warehouse where miners stored tools. The thick wooden brackets supported a mine with a diameter of three to four meters.

  The inside is not deep, only tens of meters.

  The mine has only one mouth, that is to say, they don’t have to worry about monsters coming out from all directions like they did in the suspended mine before.

  If the werewolves want to attack, they can only attack from the front.

   If you really want to choose a place to fight monsters in the mine, there is no better output environment than this.

  As soon as he walked over, Mo Feng looked at the mine and sighed: “This mine is indeed a good place.”

  A Yao also agreed: “In this way, I can export with peace of mind.”

  The black knight is blocking the door, and the ranger gunner is behind to output, which is safe and efficient.

  Nan Jing also nodded in satisfaction: “Well, this way my psychic can also work.”

   Don’t look at this lady with a ball head who was running all the way just now, and she didn’t have any particularly impressive performance.

  But actual psychics are not good at chasing battles.

  She is better at this kind of positional warfare.

   When the four of them came to the mine, a werewolf also jumped down from the rock wall above the cave entrance and wanted to sneak attack.

  Mo Feng was keenly aware, charged with his shield, and hit the werewolf against the wall with a “boom”.

   Another sword slashed, and the werewolf’s neck was cut open.

  The werewolf spurted blood from its neck, struggling to escape, but the black knight’s strength made it completely unable to move.

  Mo Feng seemed dissatisfied with the power of his sword, and muttered: “Hey, it’s time to get serious.”

  Since I decided to kill all the monsters in this mine, there is no need to hide it now.

   As he said, he put away the one-handed sword, then took out a card with a red long sword pattern from the card slot, and said lightly: “Solution!”

  Looking again, a two-handed sword with piercing red light suddenly appeared in his hand.

   As soon as the sword was drawn out, the entire mine was glowing red with flames, and the temperature suddenly rose several degrees.

  With the great scarlet red sword in his hand, Mo Feng’s momentum suddenly rose a lot, and he snorted coldly.

   I have to say, with this cold snort, the stinky farts that young people should have are fully displayed.

   There is still a little comparison between the man.

   Just now, an apprentice made a big show in front of his two companions, and he, the black knight, will win the game no matter what.

  Mo Feng drew his sword and slashed horizontally. The werewolf body whose muscles were still as hard as iron just now was cut in half by the flaming sword.

  The wound on the corpse was burnt, and there was still a smell of burnt meat in the air.

  Mo Feng stood where he was, and the invincible aura of the black knight instantly enveloped the audience.

  Nanjing and Ayao were originally companions. I have seen this scene countless times, and I am not surprised.

  Mo Feng didn’t show it to them either, but from the corner of his helmet he glanced at the only outsider in the team.

  He originally thought that he would see his previous shocked expressions on Ji Xun’s face.

  But he didn’t think about it. In the eyes leaking out of the gas mask on the half face, he only saw a calm wave.

  Although Ji Xun has the same expression, he also agrees in his heart that this sword is powerful and has a strong appreciation.

  But because it was expected that this guy had a hole card, it is not too surprising.

  Compared to this time, Ji Xun looked more curiously at the big red sword.

  【Relic Salamander Sword】

  Detailed explanation: Level I ancient relic; the two-handed sword of the ancient fire demon swordsman, which contains rich power of fire law; fire damage +155%, sharpness +5. Infused with mana, slash with burning and holy damage, causing an additional 30% holy damage to dark creatures.

   “It’s actually a relic-level sword”

  Ji Xun looked at the fire sword and sighed in his heart.

   This sword is the two-handed sword with the most exaggerated attributes he has ever seen, much better than those of the Frost Knight.

   This kind of relic, even the upper-class nobles, rarely can be used as weapons.

   I don’t have any background information, so I can’t get it out at all.

   On the other side, A Yao also took out a crossbow arrow box like a drum, and installed it on her hand crossbow.

  The crossbow is a mechanical compound crossbow, except for a little more precision, there is nothing special about it.

  But the arrow has a way.

  【Holy Light Destroyer Arrow】

  Detailed Explanation: Penetration +2; holy light spell arrows, increase 50% holy damage to dark creatures;

   “They are all good things.”

  Ji Xun raised his brows, and these two guys finally came up with the ability to press boxes.

   Specializing in restraining dark creatures, naturally, they have done their homework and prepared.

  A black knight, a ranger, a psychic and a doctor.

   There are shields, milk, and output.

   This combination is perfect.

  Strength is the confidence for the three of them to dare to challenge the B-level difficulty.

   And it can be seen that many things about them are very old.

   This made it not difficult for Ji Xun to guess that behind Nan Jing and the others was an organization with a long history and a strong foundation.

  Ji Xun also thought it was pretty good.

  With strong teammates, his own risk will be much smaller.

  The werewolf’s intelligence is not low, and its sense of crisis is higher.

  As soon as Mo Feng took out the relic-level great sword, his aura shook, and the ordinary werewolves who had just been staring at the rock wall did not dare to come up alone.

  The four of them had a rare leisure time.

  Ji Xun didn’t feel embarrassed at all, and just hid in the hole.

  Both he and Ayao belong to crispy output, so they should hide behind the black knight.

  Mo Feng blocked the door, and Ayao was arranging her equipment.

  Nan Jing also took out her psychic card.

   After activating the card, four iron zombies, a slimy green slime monster, and a few skeletons with knives and axes appeared.

   Counting psychic objects, this is the strength of a psychic.

  The main focus is to win by quantity.

  Ji Xun also saw the light in his eyes. These psychic enlightenment shows that most of them are the combat power of Katu in the later stage, but they can’t stand the large number.

  Look at the card slot of Nanjing, so there are still many psychic cards.

  Especially that [slime monster], enlightenment shows that it is a first-order D-level disaster.

  Although the movement speed is slow, the dial indicator is immune to physical attacks and also has corrosion damage.

  This attribute should not be too restrained for a werewolf who purely attacks physically.

  The black knight Mo Feng and a few psychic monsters blocked the door, like several shield walls, and the entrance of the huge mine was almost blocked.

  The three crispy skins stayed together in the mine.

   Before the four of them had a rest, more and more werewolves gathered around them.

   The monsters dare not approach for the time being, but Ji Xun and A Yao are two long-distance professions that are not idle either. One uses a gun and the other uses a crossbow, and they can kill one from time to time.

  Ji Xun looked at the werewolf corpses, turned his thoughts, and asked, “Miss Nan Jing, can you let the psychic pull the werewolf corpses into the hole?”

  The previous werewolf corpse hadn’t had time to deal with it. Now that he has free time, he will try to swallow it first.

   And there are too many corpses blocking the entrance of the cave, which will hinder the battle for a while.

“OK.”

  Nan Jing nodded, and said: “Although the skeletons are a bit clumsy, they are still very useful for moving things. I usually let them do heavy work.”

   As she spoke, she cast some mysterious spell, and the skeleton started to move, and walked out of the mine with a click, ready to drag the werewolf corpse.

   Suddenly, a werewolf pounced down.

  The skeleton was smashed to pieces by the werewolf just after leaving the cave, but in a blink of an eye, the skeleton with a broken rib stood up again.

   This kind of low-level summoning is originally a consumable.

   Attracting firepower is just right.

  A Yao took the opportunity to nail the outcropping werewolf to the ground with an arrow.

   In a blink of an eye, the little skull dragged the two werewolf corpses back into the cave.

  Ji Xun took out a knife and peeled off some white material on the werewolf corpse, which was worthless.

   But he looked at the power of darkness overflowing from the corpse, and used [Devil’s Feast].

   This try, it really works.

  「You have used Feast Devour, your constitution +0.0002」

  「You used Feast Devour, Strength +0.00013」

  「You used Feast Devour, Dark Affinity +0.05」

  「.”

   “Sure enough, it can be swallowed.”

  Ji Xun was the first time to use a feast to devour a non-human corpse. Looking at the enlightenment prompt, his eyes narrowed slightly.

   The absorption efficiency is very low, but this is not the cause of the corpse.

   It is because its own attributes have reached the upper limit of the current rank.

  What he wants to test is whether the corpses of monsters in different dimensions can be swallowed like human corpses.

   Now confirmed.

Can.

  Ji Xun was still a little worried before, the work of the corpse collector has gradually been unable to meet his needs for corpse attributes.

   After all, most of the corpses collected are low-level corpses.

  It’s okay during the Katu period.

  But after advanced, the need for attribute growth will become greater and greater, and this kind of devouring efficiency is not ideal.

  Before he had guessed, since they were all corpses, whether they could absorb the extraordinary characteristics of monster corpses.

   But I have never been out of the city of innocence before, and I have never encountered a monster.

   And the Necropolis maze is full of skeleton monsters, and he didn’t have a chance to try it.

   Trying this now, the effect exceeded expectations.

   And one more thing, there are more monsters than people!

  Since monster corpses can be absorbed, isn’t it better to go to some monster-killing different-dimensional spaces than being a corpse collector?

  For a while, Ji Xun has seen the source of his attribute growth after advanced.

  He seemed to see another smooth road waving towards him.

  Ji Xun and the others didn’t run around in the mine to seek hatred, but they attracted fewer monsters.

   But wait a long time, the surviving hunters behind also rushed up from the second floor of the mine.

   Just now, Ji Xun and the others opened the way, clearing many obstacles and giving convenience to these hunters.

   But as soon as they came to the first floor of the mine, looking at the collapsed and suspended mine tunnel, all the hunters had only despair and curses on their faces.

   “Damn it, those guys from the Black Wolf Group must have corroded the mine tunnel. Scarface, what should we do now?”

   “What else can I do, climb the wall quickly! Escape as many as you can. That B-level disaster is almost catching up, don’t dawdle, or you will all die”

   “Damn it, when I get out, I must expose these despicable deeds of the Black Wolf Group!”

  “.”

  Anyone’s first choice is naturally to climb the wall and escape from the mine first.

   These hunters are no exception.

   Nearly fifty people came in this time, and there were also seven or eight first-level people.

   Those who are still alive are almost all masters of some means.

  These people gather together, and the fighting power of the group is not weak.

  As soon as they came, most of the werewolves on Ji Xun’s side were also attracted.

  The hunters took out all kinds of tools and wanted to climb up the mine wall, but as expected, they were all chased by werewolves and fled in embarrassment on the mine road, and they had no advantage on the rock wall.

   There were endless screams and falling sounds.

  The four of them also watched the battle from a distance, seeing the light sources on the rock wall falling down from time to time, which was completely expected.

  In fact, even if they climb out of the mine, it is unlikely that they will escape back to Townsend alive.

  The werewolf’s running speed is faster than that of an assassin-type spell card master of the same level, and he has a supernatural sense of smell, so he has nowhere to hide.

   Can only be chased all the way to death.

   Originally, the four of Ji Xun were just having fun, but disaster fell from heaven.

   Probably Mo Feng’s flaming long sword had too big a target?

   Or those spell card masters with enhanced vision among the hunters?

   Someone found them anyway.

  Suddenly someone shouted violently: “There are a few people over there! Lead the monster over there!”

  The four of them rolled their eyes together when they heard the unexpected disaster.

   One of the most important rules of survival for hunters in the wild is that dead teammates will not kill themselves.

   Selling teammates when in danger is commonplace.

   Especially this wild team.

   After the shout, there was the sound of swishing cards breaking through the air.

   Mo Feng at the front saw something clearly, and said, “Be careful, it’s a dirty bullet card!”

   Those cards exploded in front of the cave, and a mass of flesh and blood and the smell of special minced meat filled the air.

  Ji Xun is not surprised, 407 has seen it once before.

  The effect of diverting disaster to the east is also very good.

  Werewolves are like sharks, very sensitive to the smell of flesh and blood.

   There were bursts of howling wolves, and most of the werewolves who were besieging the hunters on the rock wall before were attracted to the mine.

  The four of Ji Xun didn’t think there was any worse influence except for a little sneer at this despicable behavior.

   Anyway, sooner or later, you will have to face these werewolves head-on, and it doesn’t make much difference if you are attracted here now.

   As for those hunters.

   If they are still alive later, they will die sooner or later.

  After the werewolves gathered together, they became much more courageous.

  Did not dare to attack just now, but now, led by two or three elite werewolves of D-level calamity, there was a charging wolf howl, and countless black shadows charged in menacingly.

  Mo Feng stood at the front fearlessly, his heavy armor was fearless to bite, and his two-handed flaming sword swished like a whistling wind.

   In the chasing battle, the werewolf has the advantage of the terrain, but there is no more suitable occupation than the black knight for the output.

  Although the werewolf’s combat power is not bad, but Mo Feng is a Tier 1 spell card master, and his physical fitness is also comparable to a C-level calamity. He is also blessed with heavy armor and relics.

  Slashing horizontally and vertically with the big sword can always take away a few werewolves.

   Those werewolves pounced on him and bit him, trying to submerge him with wolf pack tactics and restrict his movements.

  However, in the mine, Ayao’s crossbow arrows and Ji Xun’s bullets would always give the werewolf a fatal blow to those monsters accurately.

   And Nan Jing’s psychic is also in great use at this moment.

  Although the individual combat power of those iron zombies is similar to that of werewolves, they are very resistant to beatings.

  Zombies are different from human fragile bodies. They are not afraid of pain, fear, bleeding and a series of negative states.

   And corpse poison!

  Although the bite force of the werewolf is amazing, the taste of corrupt zombies with corpse poison is obviously not good.

  After biting, the werewolves spat out foul-smelling saliva and refused to bite again.

   Zombies can persist for a long time without being bitten.

  The green slime monster was even more eye-catching.

   It was stuck there, completely immune to physical attacks, and its fur would sizzle when the werewolf touched it.

   Can’t talk about killing a werewolf, but monsters can’t kill it either.

   With such a few meat shields in front, it also shared a lot of firepower pressure for Mo Feng, the main tank.

   However, werewolves are bloodthirsty, the more they kill, the redder their eyes become.

  The number is also increasing.

  In a short while, the first floor of the huge mine fell into a fierce battle.

   Fortunately, the favorable terrain was selected in advance.

   Although the four of Ji Xun seemed to be facing dozens of times more monsters, they were calm.

  Relying on their strength and equipment, they harvested werewolves in an orderly manner.

  Even if a few monsters run into the mine once in a while, it won’t affect much.

  Although the three of Ji Xun are cloth armor professions, their physical strength is not weak, and they are always in danger.

  While harvesting, Nan Jing also controlled the little skeleton to go out and drag the corpse into the mine.

  Ji Xun was sitting in the pile of corpses, devouring the overflowing extraordinary attributes, while shooting with a gun.

   This battle looked extremely intense, but for him, it was just the cost of pulling the trigger.

  He is recharging his energy.

  Because the real battle is yet to come.

  He knew very well that no matter whether the other hunters were killed or escaped, the B-level disaster would definitely find them.

  As Ji Xun expected, the number of werewolves is limited.

  He had inquired in the town before that there were only about three hundred workers in the mine. Including the knights who disappeared before, the total number of passing merchant guards definitely did not exceed five hundred.

   And not all people will be contaminated into werewolves after being bitten, and some will be eaten directly.

  So he estimates that there are at most two or three hundred werewolves in the entire mine.

   Four people killed three to five or eight in one wave, and the efficiency of clearing monsters was not low.

  After the first few waves of the most violent offensive have been withstood, the numerical threat will become smaller and smaller.

  Even if it is a D-level or C-level disaster, Mo Feng and Ayao Nanjing are enough to kill them.

  The tacit cooperation of the three directly increases the combat effectiveness at this moment.

   Mutual trust, familiar abilities, and excellent equipment, this 1+1+1 combat power is at least equal to 5.

  This is their confidence to challenge the B-level difficulty plot.

  The three of them withstood more than 90% of werewolves.

  Ji Xun also enjoyed leisure.

  Mo Feng killed the werewolf at the entrance of the cave, the flames and swords danced wildly, and the flames flickered in and out of the mine.

  Ji Xun’s gaze has also been observing the pile of monsters.

  Those D-level and C-level disasters, these werewolves are obviously bigger in size and have more vigorous hair.

   And the pants they wear are obviously more advanced than the miners.

   No need to guess, this is the mutation of the knights in the investigation team of the dead lords.

  And after wearing the clown mask, cognitive blessing, those elite werewolves still have names on their heads.

   At this moment, Ji Xun’s eyes suddenly shrank.

  He saw a black shadow more than three meters high flashing past among the wolves.

  【Werewolf Commander Queson】

  Detailed explanation: Tier 1 B-level calamity; it used to be the knight captain of Baron Ross, and became a werewolf after being polluted; it is proficient in various knight combat skills, and also has the strong physique of a werewolf abyssal undead;

coming!

   Seeing the biggest threat in the B-level plot, Ji Xun yelled: “Be careful, that B-level disaster has appeared!”

  Hearing this, the three of Nan Jing immediately took precautions.

   As soon as the voice fell, the black figure rushed out of the darkness like lightning.

  The timing was very ingenious. The moment Mo Feng swung his flame sword and had no time to return to defense, the wolf bumped into him head-on.

  The terrifying force was like being hit by a shell. Even if the heavy knight had a steady foot, he was knocked back several meters in an instant by the impact.

   Fortunately, Mo Feng was also on guard. He stepped back to stabilize his body, and at the same time he slashed out with a sword.

  Defensive counterattack, this is the most basic slashing training for the black knight.

  The sword’s edge cut across the air, murderous intent hidden.

  However, unexpectedly, the leader of the werewolf pulled back sensitively and leaned back, skillfully avoiding the range of the sword’s attack.

   This sword failed, obviously Mo Feng was also very surprised.

  An ordinary werewolf would have been chopped in half long ago.

  Ji Xun found something, looked at the series of phantoms that had just disappeared, and felt a little surprised: “The sprint was using a martial skill?”

  It was able to knock the heavily armored black knight into the air, leaving afterimages along the way. This is definitely not an ordinary brute force collision.

   is the charge skill.

  As Enlightenment showed, the werewolf retained the martial arts it mastered as the captain of the knights.

   Now watching the werewolf commander avoid the sword skillfully, Ji Xun sighed in his heart: “What a strong fighting instinct!”

   This monster is really tricky.

  Now that he has seen it with his own eyes, he can already be sure that this level of B-level disaster is definitely not something that ordinary hunter groups can kill by numbers.

   Without top-notch equipment and strong strength, ordinary black knights would suffer greatly from the collision just now.

  The front row couldn’t hold back the hatred, and the card masters in the back row were as fragile as paper under the fangs of this monster.

   No wonder those guys from the Black Wolf Group charge tickets for a day without using such good silver materials.

   As for this werewolf who can use martial arts, if the Black Wolf Group wants to kill it by force, they will probably get several elite teams.

  And the outcome is bound to be heavy casualties.

  Empty occupied “Greedy Mine” such an excellent output different-dimensional space, but can’t eat it, no wonder the executives of the Black Wolf Group are thinking about doing something crooked all day long.
