Chapter 234 - 234 Black Mages
“Who is it?”
Chu Bai asked casually.
Playboy said, “I told you before. He’s a member of our Heaven Alliance. He’s an expert. I’ve cleared monsters with him many times, and he’s especially powerful. I wanted to ask him to help with the three pet dungeons, but he wasn’t online for a day. Look, he just came online. I said that I’m doing a mission with you and he wanted to come with me. I scolded him.”
“Okay, we’ll talk about it later. Let’s go and complete this mission first.” Chu Bai nodded.
“Hehe, alright.”
Then, they continued speeding toward Ten-Mile Slope.
Soon, they arrived at Ten-Mile Slope.
Ten-Mile Slope was just like its name.
There was a slope ten miles ahead.
The slope was not very steep, but with the naked eye, one could see that it was going straight up.
It was said that the top of Ten-Mile Slope was close to 2,000 meters above sea level.
There were slopes in all directions. Therefore, Ten-Mile Slope was actually a relatively not-so-steep mountain, but it was a gentle mountain that kept rising.
The reason why there was no human habitation here was not only because it was dangerous, but also because the nearby land was not fertile.
Chu Bai and Playboy were already quite far away from this place, so they rarely saw flowers and trees.
“Stop here.”
Chu Bai dismounted.
It would not be easy for the horses to walk farther ahead.
“Alright.”
Chu Bai looked up.
This place was not completely barren. As they walked forward, they could still see many withered trees. Occasionally, they could see green, but because it was night, they could not see very clearly!
There were not many twists, but the ground was uneven, making it difficult to walk.
Moreover, there were many monsters around.
Chu Bai glanced at them.
Level 40 monsters were basically all bronze monsters.
However, it was obvious that this was basically a farming spot for level 40 monsters. If there were bronze monsters, there would definitely be silver and gold monsters.
This was because most players were now level 20, and the powerful ones had reached level 30!
This was a level 40 monster spawn map, so it might take some time for it to become a map with more players.
“Let’s not farm these monsters. Let’s go straight up. The most important thing is to complete the mission.”
Chu Bai said to Playboy.
“Understood!”
Then, they walked up.
The demon grave might be at the top of Ten-Mile Slope.
They walked up.
During this period, they encountered many monsters. They avoided those that they could avoid and easily killed those that they could not avoid.
After all, they were not bosses. With Chu Bai’s attributes, killing them was very easy.
“Whoa!”
When they arrived at the top of Ten-Mile Slope, the scene in front of them shocked Playboy.
It was not anything particularly attractive. It was just that at the top, someone had built something that looked like an altar.
Other than that, what was even more eye-catching was that there seemed to be a cave in front of them. It was a cave, and there was a red light emitting from the cave.
“I think it’s inside.”
Playboy said.
“Let’s go in and take a look. Our mission is to destroy the demon grave. I reckon that we might not encounter monsters but people from the demon race. In theory, even if their strength is not very strong, they should be more difficult to deal with than monsters.”
Monsters were animals, but NPCs were at least humans, right? No matter what race they were from, they at least had human combat skills and intelligence.
Unless it was a very high-grade monster, then it was no different from a human.
Then, the two of them walked over.
“Big Brother, aren’t you going in?”
Playboy stood in front of the cave and looked at Chu Bai curiously.
Chu Bai looked at the altar in front of him with the God Slaying Claamity in his hand.
The altar was very simple. It was just a table. On the table, there were some strange-looking things. There were talismans, incense, and wine.
The table looked like it was carrying out some kind of ritual.
Chu Bai had the destructive effect.
He then raised the God Slaying Calamity in his hand.
“Stop!”
...
At this moment, a furious roar was heard.
Following that, Chu Bai and Playboy looked over.
Not far away, there were a few black-robed men holding crystal balls that emitted black light.
[Black Mage. Grade: Gold. Level:40. HP: 150,000. There’s a force called the Black Magic Guild on this continent. The members of the Black Magic Guild practice a kind of evil black magic and master ancient magic mysteries. It’s also rumored that the Black Magic Guild has a large number of forbidden spells. They’ve abandoned their staffs for the more convenient and powerful black magic crystal balls. Their melee ability is poor, and they use the crystal balls in their hands as their method of attack.
[Skills—Dark Thunderbolt: Condenses the dark power of the crystal ball and releases a powerful dark thunderbolt. Every hit will cause great damage and have a 10% chance of reducing all attributes by 50% (excluding HP) for ten seconds. Cooldown time: ten seconds.]
[Darkness Protection: Envelops the entire body with the powerful dark energy of the crystal ball or protects the body for ten seconds. In this state, this energy will isolate all attacks. Cooldown time: two minutes.]
[Stygian Night Whisper: The crystal ball releases powerful power and a very evil voice. The chant is continuous, and the Stygian Night Whisper is continuous. The sound wave can be controlled to cause damage and a two-second stun effect to any target. Cooldown time: ten minutes.]
“The Black Magic Guild.”
Therefore, they were not demons but the Black Magic Guild, an evil organization that belonged to the NPCs on the continent.
Chu Bai did not know what they were doing here.
“Two for me and one for you.”
...
Chu Bai said to Playboy.
“Hehe, they’re just mages. I’ll hammer them to death in close combat! Big Brother, I’ll take two and you take one.”
“That works too.”
Whoosh!
Chu Bai rushed over.
“You’re courting death! Dark Thunderbolt!”
A black mage rubbed the crystal ball in his hand twice. In an instant, a powerful black lightning bolt shot toward Chu Bai at an extremely fast speed.
The speed and the range were so fast that he could not dodge everything.
On the other side, Playboy’s muscles exploded as he leaped forward.
“You’re courting death!”
The dark thunderbolt also struck Playboy.
Playboy reached out his hand. His hands were invincible. When the dark thunderbolt touched his hands, he grabbed it forcefully. Then, Playboy grabbed the black thunderbolt and jumped in front of the two black mages, stuffing it into their mouths.
Playboy’s fists landed on their flesh, smashing them in the face.
As for Chu Bai, he could not dodge the attack.
-1,199!
+600!
The damage was actually quite high, but to Chu Bai, he did not care at all.
“Flash of Judgment!”
-13,440!
3,360 attack power with a double critical hit. At the same time, in the dark, Chu Bai’s damage was doubled. Any random attack would deal 13,000 damage.
