Xu Tian pointed to the teaching building under his feet and the playground outside, and continued to explain.
"Once we clear out all the monsters in the surrounding area, specifically in the area we are in now, which means eliminating every single monster within the school's boundaries, we will naturally receive the reward once the area's exploration progress and monster elimination rate reach 100%."
After listening, Feng Xue nodded slightly, but there was a hint of confusion in her clear and beautiful eyes. She looked around at the empty corridor and the playground outside, and then spoke.
“I understand the logic, but where are we going to find monsters to kill now? This area is eerily quiet. We haven’t seen any monsters along the way.”
As soon as Feng Xue finished speaking, a sense of vigilance rose in everyone's hearts.
In games, what's most terrifying is often not the overwhelming sea of monsters, but the deathly silence before the storm.
"Wait a minute..."
Xu Tian immediately raised his hand, interrupting everyone's thoughts.
Xu Tian said in a deep voice.
"Now that we can't find our target, let's look around here first. Everyone, remember to stay together, maintain formation, and don't get too scattered."
"The worst thing to do on this kind of unknown map is to fight alone. If we are picked off one by one by the monsters, even if we are well equipped, we will die on the spot."
Then, Xu Tian turned around, his gaze sweeping across the corridor to the dilapidated staircase leading up and down.
The stair railings are rusty.
Fengxue walked to the top of the stairs, peeked down at the bottomless staircase, looked up at the direction leading to the rooftop, and then asked.
"Brother Tian, should we go down or up now?"
Xu Tian hesitated for only half a second before making a decisive decision.
"Let's go up and take a look. The terrain down here is too narrow and the light is too dim. It's easy for monsters to ambush us."
"Let's go to the rooftop. The view from there is better, and we can get a better perspective on the layout of the entire school, which will help us formulate our next clearing plan."
Everyone had complete faith in Xu Tian's judgment and nodded in unison in agreement.
Then, the four of them formed a tight formation again. Xu Tian took the lead, gripping his sword, and began to walk up the dusty and rubble-covered stairs step by step.
The journey continued surprisingly smoothly, with no monsters appearing to stop them.
Soon, the four of them pushed open the heavy iron door and made their way to the rooftop of the teaching building.
It's very windy on the rooftop.
At this moment, Xu Tian took a deep breath, strode to the edge of the rooftop, placed his hands on the concrete railing, and began to look out over the vast surrounding area.
Standing tall allows you to see far.
Looking down from here, Xu Tian discovered that this was indeed a school ruin covering a very large area.
Besides the main teaching building beneath their feet, there are also a library, a laboratory building, an indoor gymnasium, and a large dormitory area in the distance.
Without exception, all of these buildings were dilapidated, with eerie black vines climbing all over their walls.
However, before Xu Tian could finish examining the entire copy, just then...
The wind and snow that had been following closely behind suddenly lit up in his eyes.
She pointed towards a huge library rooftop far from their rooftop, her voice tinged with surprise and excitement.
"Brother Tian, look! What's that over there?"
Everyone turned their gaze in the direction Feng Xue was pointing.
Through the dim smog, they could clearly see a terrifying monster, as large as a small car, covered in hard black scales, with several barbs on its back and even a pair of blood-red fangs.
What's even more surprising is that opposite this monster, there was another monster of the same size and appearance, only with slightly darker reddish scales.
These two monsters, who should have been of the same kind, not only did not cooperate in their battle, but instead seemed to have a deep-seated hatred for each other, and started tearing and fighting wildly on the roof of the library.
The sounds of flesh colliding and the deafening, ferocious roars, even from this distance, were still clearly audible to the four people.
Xu Tian was slightly taken aback by what he saw, then a smile of interest appeared on his lips as he spoke calmly.
"Oh? That's interesting. The monsters here actually fight amongst themselves for territory or food? If we make good use of that, the difficulty of clearing this dungeon will probably be much lower."
Then, everyone's attention was drawn to the battle between the two giant monsters in the distance.
They all began to formulate plans in their minds for the snipe and the clam to fight and the fisherman to benefit, and even began to relax their vigilance and take a closer look.
Sudden.
An unexpected and sudden change occurred.
Standing on the edge of the rooftop, dutifully holding a shield to defend against the winter behind me, I suddenly felt a chill run down my spine.
Immediately afterwards, a terrifying force, as if he were being hit head-on by a high-speed jet, slammed into his lower back.
"boom!"
With a dull thud, Dongtian was like a kite with a broken string, directly knocked off the rooftop dozens of meters high by that mysterious force, and plummeted straight down to the hard concrete ground below.
This sudden change happened far too quickly.
Winter was falling rapidly through the air, the wind howled in my ears, and a sense of weightlessness surged forth.
Fortunately, thanks to the muscle memory honed through countless battles, he quickly reacted in mid-air.
During the fall, Winter's brain was racing, her eyes fixed on the exterior wall of the teaching building that was rushing past her.
"Hurry up, move!"
He roared inwardly, his finger sweeping across his inventory in the air, instantly switching his main weapon to a set of cobblestone blocks.
Chapter 277 Large-scale ground cleaning
Just when he was less than ten meters from the ground, and was about to be smashed into a pulp.
In winter, he held a round stone in both hands, aimed it at the uneven wall in front of him, and slammed it down.
Without hesitation, he placed the block under his feet.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Three crisp sounds of blocks being placed rang out in succession, and three hard round stones instantly condensed in mid-air, forming a foothold.
In winter, I stepped on those newly laid square blocks.
Even with the cushioning effect of the armor, my health still dropped a little bit instantly.
However, he successfully used this maneuver to wed himself between the wall and the cobblestone, thus stopping his descent.
Then, winter continued without pause, as I looked up at the unreachable edge of the rooftop.
He continued to take out cobblestones from his backpack, and then began frantically stepping on the blocks on the almost vertical wall, like building blocks, and continued to build up on it.
On the rooftop, upon hearing the commotion of Dongtian being thrown into the air, Xu Tian and the others felt their hair stand on end and suddenly realized what had happened.
Summer, who had been silent until now, exclaimed in surprise and immediately raised her weapon.
Feng Xue and Xu Tian turned around instantly, gripping their weapons, and placed their backs against each other, exchanging their entire backs.
Then, their gazes turned toward the direction in which the object had been thrown into the air during the winter.
However, it was empty.
The place where the attackers should have been was completely empty, except for a wisp of dust kicked up by the impact.
There were no monsters, no shadows.
Upon seeing this, Feng Xue frowned, a serious expression appearing on her face. She immediately lowered her voice and spoke urgently.
"Brother Tian, what happened? The force of that impact just now was definitely caused by a high-level monster, but there's nothing in front of us. Could it be that there are invisible special monsters in this dungeon?"
At this moment, Xu Tian, as a top-tier player who had experienced countless battles, was equally shocked, but his brain was working at lightning speed, and he naturally reacted immediately.
In this otherworldly instance where anything is possible, there exists something that can cause physical damage yet remains invisible.
It can launch such a swift attack right under everyone's noses and when no one can see it, and it can even perfectly conceal its presence.
The only explanation is that the monsters here have advanced stealth abilities.
To deal with this kind of invisible assassin, you can't rely on sight; you must use wide-range, indiscriminate AOE skills to force them out.
"Xiaoxue, use a wide-area skill to clear the area."
Xu Tian shouted.
Before he finished speaking, Xu Tian immediately reached for his waist and used the red and white glowing Poké Ball with fluid movements. With a flick of his wrist, he instantly summoned his top-tier flying Pokémon, the Ice Shadow Hawk, which had been at its peak and had just been fed to level 40.
With a blinding flash of icy blue light, the massive Ice Shadow Eagle, exuding a terrifying aura, suddenly appeared above the rooftop.
"Chirp!"
A cry of an eagle rang out, causing the surrounding air to tremble slightly.
Without the slightest hesitation, Xu Tian immediately ordered the Ice Shadow Eagle to unleash its newly acquired level 40 skill, "Frost Tide Domain".
Suddenly, the Ice Shadow Eagle hovering in mid-air spread its wings and let out an even higher-pitched cry.
A terrifyingly cold energy, visible to the naked eye, erupted from its body like a sudden category 12 blizzard.
This Frost Wave Domain truly lives up to its reputation as a level 40 divine skill; instantly, countless icy blue wisps of cold air began to emanate from around the Ice Shadow Eagle's body.
The chilling air, biting cold, surged and swept across the vast rooftop space with overwhelming force.
Upon seeing this, Fengxue, who reacted just as quickly, immediately took a deep breath and prepared for battle.
She also generously waved her hand, summoning her slightly smaller level 30 Ice Shadow Eagle, ready to cooperate with Xu Tian for a second wave of crowd control.
Meanwhile, on the other side, after confirming that Winter was coming up on the safety mat block, Summer also took a deep breath and put her weapon down.
He held the exquisite longsword, which radiated a fiery red light, tightly in his hand.
Then, her eyes were fixed on the area where Xu Tian's terrifying cold wave domain was frantically encroaching.
With the full power of this level 40 Ice Shadow Eagle, the moisture in the air instantly condensed into countless tiny ice crystals under the terrifying absolute zero temperature.
Instantly, countless wisps of cold air, like an enormous frost fishing net, covered every inch of the rooftop without leaving any blind spots.
As the extreme cold air swept through, the anomaly finally occurred.
On the seemingly safe, empty ground, strange white mist suddenly began to rise.
Immediately afterwards, the previously flawless camouflage could no longer be maintained in the extremely low and pervasive temperature.
