Necromancer chopping down trees

Chapter 62 Interception Mission
"It seems that the direction of things has exceeded my expectations..."

Wang Yue started running again, and once again started running from the depths of the jungle, but the sun in the sky turned into the moon, and the [Dark Demon] chasing behind him turned into a group of [Demon Dogs].

The story begins 5 minutes ago.

Wang Yue was happily picking mushrooms deep in the jungle, oh no, collecting spoils from the [Dark Demon].

Then he heard a vibration coming from under his feet. When he looked back, he saw a stone door rising from the altar, and a powerful creature of unknown level walked out of the stone door.

[Demon Hunter: Demon Hunter with a sickle can summon demon dogs to help hunt]

【grade:??】

The humanoid demon holding a giant sickle swung forward, and countless demon dogs jumped out of the stone gate. They were not chasing Wang Yue, but invading as if to seize territory.

All creatures in the jungle will be attacked by the demon dogs. Those whippers who have returned to normal are naturally unable to resist the invasion of level 10 monsters and are all bitten to death in two or three bites.

"One dog is trouble enough, but there are so many of them. Retreat, retreat."

Wang Yue has collected 20 pieces of leather and got 3 pieces of green equipment. He has earned enough and it is time to run away.

Without players, he could safely summon weak cannon fodder skeletons to attract the monsters' hatred. At the same time, relying on his higher physical strength, he easily got rid of the swarming hellhounds and ran to the beach.

Here, he saw the four surviving NPCs again.

When Wang Yue was calling for help, these four guys with strange movements had disappeared and only appeared now.

"They are obviously villains, bad guys who are here to cause trouble."

Apart from their shabby clothes, their demeanor and accessories do not look like those of ordinary people. They must be big shots of some force.

"Hey, you don't want to explain?"

Wang Yue directly interrupted the conversation between the four people and carefully observed everyone's expression.

Paulie is dead, and Curly Roger, who spoke in front of the players, looked alert.

The other three did not interact with the player. The tall man who raised his chin to speak looked at Wang Yue with his lower eyelids, and the thin man wearing a hat leaned on a stone and listened with his head down.

The woman with a pointed nose, who was making strange gestures with her hands, completely ignored Wang Yue who had intruded, and spoke in a harsh voice.

"Next up is the trial of the Ice Fortress. Who's willing to go this time?"

The woman observed her companion along the direction of her eyelashes, with a very strange smile on her face.

"Hat, will you go?"

"I can't, miss. I can't do anything right."

The thin man waved his hand to refuse and lowered the brim of his hat again.

"waste."

The woman clicked her tongue and looked at Roger.

"Rogge, I remember that you were originally just a commoner, and later you worked as a servant and slowly rose to the title of noble. You, can't refuse, right?"

The woman covered her mouth, and laughter escaped through her skinny fingers.

"That's not what you said at the beginning!"

Rogge was very angry and picked up a stone and smashed it hard into the pool beside him.

The sea water splashed on everyone, but it did not change their expressions.

"How about you tell me what you are planning to do?"

Wang Yue realized that he had intruded into an important plot, but he was now completely confused and had no idea what they were talking about.

"Nothing to do with you."

The woman rolled her eyes at Wang Yue. Although she rejected him verbally, no one here kicked him out.

"It's your turn, Roger. Look, everyone agrees."

The woman shook off her wet skirt and licked the sea water off her fingers with her tongue.

"I won't do it! Why don't you go?"

Rogge gritted his teeth and pulled out the dagger. The flesh on his face was trembling with anger, but this fierce look was still useless.

The other three have reached a consensus that Rogge will take part in the next trial.

"If he doesn't go, I will. Leave this task to me."

Wang Yue raised her hand and waved it in front of everyone.

"You want to go?"

"Yes, it's me."

Unlike NPCs, Wang Yue is fearless. As long as he can complete the mission and gain experience, he doesn't mind summoning another [Demon Hunter].

Everyone's eyes were focused on Wang Yue, and even Rogge, who had always been hostile to him, showed an expression of gratitude.

"Well then, I'll leave the trial to you. Good luck."

The four NPCs reached a consensus through eye contact, and finally Rogge personally sent the task to Wang Yue.

[Mission Objective: Pass the Trial of the Ice Fortress]

[Quest Reward: Snow Monster Mount]

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Seeing the mount as a reward, Wang Yue immediately became excited.

Movement speed is the most useful attribute in the game. Time is money, so the practicality of mounts is self-evident.

"If he fails, Roger, then you will have to take the field yourself."

After the matter was settled, the woman left very satisfied.

The other two also started moving along the coast, leaving only Rogge standing there to express his gratitude to Wang Yue.

"Listen, although I don't know why you accepted it, in order to succeed in your trial, I need to give you some advice."

Rogge motioned Wang Yue to come closer and listen attentively.

"I heard that it's very cold there. No one can pass the trial without warm clothes."

The man pointed at Wang Yue's orange peel coat. This piece of clothing made of inferior demon skin was obviously not thick enough. It could only block the wind but not the cold.

"Oh, cold is a magical attack, so why don't I get some equipment that increases resistance to ice?"

After giving the advice, Roger turned to face the sea and began to daydream.

He needs to wait until the next day for the internal test to unlock the new plot. Now he is just a wooden man who cannot move.

"Then let me see what I have gained today."

Wang Yue opened the package and checked the three green items of clothing he had touched.

[Ceremony Sword: A heavy two-handed sword that you can think of as a hammer]

[Effect: Attack Power +5]

[Effect: Strength +2]

The bronze sword was not a weapon that Wang Yue could use, so he could only consider giving it to the players.

[Lesser Demon Gauntlets: Black industrial-style hand armor, suitable for forging]

[Effect: Defense +2]

[Effect: Agility +2]

This armor can be used by both Wang Yue and Fat Cat. He can use it himself first and then give it to his friends.

[Dark Lesser Demon Earrings: Even the earrings are stained with dark energy, be careful]

[Effect: Darkness resistance +1%]

Unlike ordinary Lemur Earrings, Dark Lemur Earrings are black and do not have the property of increasing mana.

Wang Yue still has more than a dozen white-quality [Inferior Demon Earrings] in her bag, which can be packed up as mission rewards.

"Okay, now I just need to have a good sleep and wait for the sun to wake me up."

Wang Yue used the remaining wood to make a bark tent and built a temporary residence on the beach.

He lay on the wooden board, looking at the stars on the sea, and fell asleep while counting them.
