Last Building on Earth

Chapter 116: 5 Major Forces

“Task Name: Treasure of Snake Clan, Difficulty: ★★★★”

He looked at another piece of parchment opened by Zhao Lei next to him, which also had a line of words written on it.

“Task Name: Centipede Hunter, Difficulty: ★★★★★”

The two pieces of parchment represented two tasks. Wang Xuan took a look at the rewards. “The Treasure of the Snake Clan” was rewarded with a rust treasure chest. The five-star difficulty “Centipede Hunter” rewarded a bronze treasure box.

“This woman didn’t even complete the task of having two pieces of parchment, or has it been completed, but the parchment hasn’t been lost?” Zhao Lei took a look at the parchment and was a little curious.

Wang Xuan glanced at it and said, “Neither of these two tasks have been done yet.”

Zhang Haofei said, “Why, Wang Xuan, how do you know?”

Wang Xuandao: “You can see the content of this task. I have discovered a pattern now. The content of the task on this parchment will change. Now the content of the task displayed on these two pieces of paper is the first step. Obviously, neither of these two tasks has been done yet, and if it is completed, the content of the tasks above will become the last step.”

This is a small detail that he noticed when he went to complete the Goblin Redemption quest before. As long as you carefully look at the content of the quest, you can understand whether these quests have been completed.

Zhao Lei smiled and said, “So that’s the case. This woman got two parchments, but she didn’t do it for some reason. It’s cheaper for us.”

Wang Xuan stood up and said, “Maybe it’s not too late to do it. Since this is the area of the Snake Territory in the east of Zhen, it happens that the address of the ‘Treasure of the Snake Clan’ is in the Snake Territory. Let’s complete this task first.”

As he spoke, he raised his head, only to feel the darkness around him, and only to see a large number of rock piles undulating in the distance. It is estimated that it should be after four in the morning, but they were resting before they came up to the second floor. No one is tired now.

I’m only here now, and it will take a few days to get used to it if I want to reverse the biological clock.

“Wang Xuan, what should I do with this woman and Wu Yi’s corpse, they will be discarded here. If Duan Chen’s people see it, will they suspect that we are here.”

Wang Xuan carefully looked at the two corpses, and gradually found that there were signs of melting under them. Although it was very slow, it also represented that the ground here had the same self-purification function as the first floor. The two corpses were placed here, the most In half a day, it will definitely be completely swallowed up by the earth and disappeared.

“Don’t worry, the two corpses will slowly melt away.” Wang Xuan said while unfolding the parchment in his hand.

Zhao Lei also gave him the parchment with the words “Centipede Hunter” written on it.

This time, I also got two junior storage belts. Zhao Lei took one by himself, and Zhang Haofei took the other.

Gu Manyao didn’t care about this belt. She thought that she would always stay by Wang Xuan’s side anyway. With Wang Xuan there, there was no need for an additional storage belt.

“The difficulty of this snake clan’s treasure is only four stars, so it shouldn’t be too difficult, but we are here for the first time, everyone should be careful.” Wang Xuan held the parchment in his left hand, and released a metal tentacle in his right hand. Ahead, one rises above his head, just in case.

Zhao Lei followed closely behind him, showing the marks of the Holy Spirit, and kept looking around, and couldn’t help sighing: “It’s all to blame for Wu Yi, otherwise we can take a good tour in Worm Town now, I look at the map It shows that there are many good places in this worm town. The names are different from the previous lobby on the first floor. For example, there are exchange areas, recycling areas, task lines, and the most attractive tavern. Now we can’t go there. .”

Zhang Haofei said bitterly: “It’s not a pity for this guy to die a hundred times. Damn, we can only live in the wilderness now, and we don’t know whether Huichong Town is safe or not.”

Wang Xuan also smiled bitterly and said, “Don’t think about this for now, at least until you all reach adulthood, don’t think about Huichong Town, fortunately we have a lot of nutrient solution now, and we haven’t carried it for a month or two. question.”

Zhao Lei said with a smile: “In a month or two, why don’t we just become an adult, I’m afraid we can grow to a higher form, yes, I don’t know what form is above this adult, Wang Xuan, you just killed that one. Wu Yi is also an adult, you have obtained his energy, will you break through again soon?”

Gu Manyao also showed concern. If Wang Xuan made another breakthrough, why should he be afraid of Duan Chen, Yao Tiande and others?

Wang Xuan shook his head and said: “It feels too early. After reaching the adult body, the white light in the right hand seems to have turned into a Wangtan. No amount of energy is filled in without much response. According to the current situation, this adult body wants to break through again. , it’s just a long way off.”

Zhang Haofei said in surprise: “It won’t reach the top after reaching an adult body, will it? Can it no longer evolve?”

Tie Jundao: “Listening to the name, adult body should mean adulthood. There is a possibility.”

Wang Xuandao: “It’s hard to say right now, if it’s just Duan Chen and Yao Tiande, we don’t need to be afraid even if they are both adults, it’s mainly the Rakshasa that Wu Yi said, we need to find out exactly what this Rakshasa is, is it? An individual is still an organization. If it is an organization, what kind of strength does it have, what position does Duan Chen and Yao Tiande have in this organization, and how much energy can they mobilize? In short, everything is unknown now, and we need to find a way to find out. ”

Zhao Lei said: “Yes, by knowing ourselves and our enemies, we can know what to do.”

While chatting in a low voice, the eight people walked along the piles of rocks under the darkness of the night and walked into the distance.

The parchment in Wang Xuan’s left hand is exactly the map of the Snake Territory. According to the map, they need to walk out of the east gate of Insect Town and go all the way east.

At the end of this eastern snake field, there is a giant rock pile nearly 100 meters high, and this “treasure of the snake family” is hidden there.

It’s just that the night is too dark now, and everyone looks at the darkness in the distance. They can’t see the huge pile of rocks that is 100 meters high. They can only follow the prompts and walk towards the east.

Yu Shanshan’s injuries were not minor before, but fortunately, her “light mirror” played a huge self-healing effect. Although she has not fully recovered, she has no problem walking with everyone. During the walk, her injuries are still continuing. In recovery, it will take a long time to fully recover.

Soon everyone walked two or three hundred meters ahead. Except for rock piles of different sizes and weeds everywhere, they didn’t see half a snake and were not in danger.

“This snake domain name doesn’t match the truth. Is it because these snakes are sleeping at night?” Zhang Haofei felt a little itchy in his nostrils.

He is now looking forward to the emergence of a group of snakes, so that he can kill a lot and gain enough energy to advance to adulthood.

The unknown Rakshasa brought him great pressure. Although he was in the Snake Territory, no one could guarantee that he would never meet Duan Chen and Yao Tiande in the wild. Come up, it’s dangerous.

As soon as he said this, Wang Xuan, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped, followed by a pile of rocks not far ahead, and two heads suddenly appeared, followed by two figures standing up. Two pairs of vigilant eyes appeared in the night, staring at them.

Suddenly seeing two people here, all eight were slightly startled.

Wang Xuan looked at the pile of rocks behind the two people, the figures flickered one after another, and soon there were four more people, and a total of six people gathered together.

The six people were a little nervous at first, but when they saw Wang Xuan and eight people, they seemed to be relieved after looking at them carefully.

Wang Xuan saw that these six people were basically wearing Tier 2 equipment, both ordinary quality purchased with crystal scales and fine quality obtained by hunting monsters, but they did not have a piece of Tier 3 equipment. Wearing a red belt, at least it should not be in the same group as Duan Chen and Yao Tiande.

Thinking of being worried that he could not find anyone to inquire about Rakshasa, seeing these six people suddenly in front of him was an opportunity.

Wang Xuan had a similar idea and was about to speak, but he didn’t want one of the six women to suddenly take the initiative to say, “You don’t have to be nervous, you are newcomers to Bug Town, right?”

Wang Xuan was slightly startled, and couldn’t help but ask curiously, “How do you all know that we are newcomers?”

Thinking about the equipment, the equipment of the six people in front of him is not better than them. He also has a third-order alloy boots on his body. In addition, he is wearing a Xumi belt. Zhao Lei and Zhang Haofei also have storage belts around their waists. This equipment, no matter how you look at it, doesn’t look like a new talent.

This woman is about twenty-three or four years old. Although she looks average, her smile looks very friendly. She smiled and said: “One is because you have no signs, and second, most of the people who can come to this snake domain are all It’s a newcomer, plus this time point, if I guess correctly, you should be the newcomers who came tonight, and then bought a map, and came here according to the map, but I remember that the four doors of Bug Town will be closed at night. , most of you came out over the wall.”

Wang Xuan thought that although she was not completely accurate, she was able to guess these things very well. She nodded with admiration and said, “You guessed right, my name is Wang Xuan, I don’t know what you call them, yes, you say What does the sign mean?”

As he spoke, he brought seven people up, came a few meters away, and stopped.

The two sides maintain a certain safety distance, which is good for both sides. After all, it is the first time to meet each other, and they are still a little wary of each other.

The woman said: “Actually, we are also newcomers who have only been here for a day. My name is Li Haitang, this is Wu Yunyue, this is Zhang Zhao…”

Both parties introduced their names to each other and nodded to each other. It was considered that they knew each other. Perhaps because they were both newcomers, the six of them were very friendly to Wang Xuan and eight of them, so Li Haitang explained the sign.

“Because you came at night, you may not have met people from the five major forces. This worm town is ruled by the five major forces. All newcomers who come in must join one of these five forces and get the badges granted by them. They sheltered, otherwise they would not be able to get along.”

Wang Xuan frowned slightly and said, “The five major forces, which five major forces are they?”

Li Haitang said, “Phoenix, Rakshasa, Xuan Gang, Dynasty, and one called Justice League.”

Hearing this, Wang Xuan took a deep breath. It seemed that his guess was accurate. This Rakshasa was really the name of an organization, and it was also one of the five major forces that ruled this worm town.

Wang Xuan was relatively calm, Zhang Haofei and Li Haotian all changed their faces when they heard this, and understood who they were provoking.

Li Haitang couldn’t help laughing when she saw their faces changed: “You don’t have to be afraid, it’s nothing in reality. To put it bluntly, they are just trying to extort newcomers. The so-called joining them is a bit like paying a protection fee. It has to be handed in when you first come here. According to the regulations, each newcomer needs to hand them two crystal scales every day, and they will be handed in for one month at a time, that is, 60 crystal scales, which means that the newcomer has obtained their shelter during this month. , after one month, it depends on the situation, the sub-body is still two crystal scales a day, and then hand in one month, the adult body is halved, one a day, only 30 pieces a month.”

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other in dismay. Each newcomer had to hand in 60 pieces, and the eight of them would have to hand over 480 crystal scales at one time.

“Do these five forces have the same rules? Everyone must pay them? What if they don’t? Or what if they don’t have so many crystal scales?” Zhao Lei couldn’t help but ask.

Li Haitang said: “No matter which faction you choose to join, the rules are the same. When you come here, who else would dare not pay? If there is really no crystal scales, they won’t make it difficult for you, they will let you come anyway. The Snake Domain tried to earn crystal scales, and next time they get it together and then hand it in. They are more humane in this regard. Just like us, we don’t have crystal scales, so we dare not go back tonight, we can only gather what we need. of the crystal scales before returning to Insect Town.”

Wang Xuan was a little confused, he pondered slightly, and then said: “If this is the case, it is not that everyone in this worm town belongs to a certain faction? Everyone has backers behind their backs, so this kind of protection you said has What’s the point?”

Zhang Zhao next to Li Haitang laughed and said, “Yes, that’s why Sister Haitang just said that joining the five major forces is a pretext. To put it bluntly, except for some of their core members, everyone else’s so-called joining is just hanging. It’s just a name, and the bottom line is to force all of us to pay protection fees. These core members can make a lot of money without saying anything. It is said that as long as you need enough crystal scales, you can buy anything here. , especially some private transactions, all kinds of special treasures can be bought, of course, we also heard from a few people who came two days earlier than us.”

When Wu Yunyue heard this, he coughed lightly and said, “Forget it, everyone, pay attention to what you say, it’s not good to spread these words out.”

He looked at Wang Xuan and the others with some vigilance. Li Haitang and Zhang Zhao said that there was dissatisfaction and resentment against the five major forces. If Wang Xuan and the others spy, it would be dangerous for them.

With Wu Yunyue’s reminder, both Li Haitang and Zhang Zhao showed unnatural expressions on their faces.

Knowing what they were worried about, Wang Xuan immediately murmured: “I can’t imagine that the so-called five major forces are like this. Isn’t that the five cancers in this insect town? Does anyone want to resist them?”

Hearing Wang Xuan say this, and he said it more boldly than them, they were relieved and a little surprised. Although they had some resentment against the five major forces, they were not so bold to say this.

Li Haitang immediately said in a low voice: “Wang Xuan, it’s okay to talk about it here, don’t talk about it in front of other people, especially when you return to Bug Town, you don’t even know who is the core of these five forces. Members, a little carelessness will lead to a catastrophe.”

Wang Xuan snorted, thinking of the fear of Duan Chen and Duan Chen. Could it be that Duan Chen, Yao Tiande, and the slain woman are the core members of the Rakshasa?

“Thank you, Sister Haitang, for your concern.” Wang Xuan smiled and called her Sister Haitang along with Zhang Zhao and the others. He further improved the relationship between the two parties. He could see that Li Haitang was very kind to him, and he should have a good impression of himself. Then he said: “Then what are the symbols of these five major forces, such as the symbol of the Rakshasa? What is the symbol of the phoenix.”

When he mentioned Phoenix, he suddenly remembered that he had just entered Worm Town. Among the rows of single-family buildings, he saw a five-story building with a flag on the roof. There is a picture of a phoenix. Could it be the “Phoenix”, one of the five major forces?

Li Haitang said: “We don’t know this very well. We came here a day earlier than you, and we don’t know much. Let me think about it. By the way, the symbol of Rakshasa is a red belt. As long as you pay sixty With a crystal scale, you can get a special red belt, which can be worn for a month, and after a month, you need to pay again.”

Zhang Zhao said with some disdain: “What kind of red belt, to put it bluntly, it’s just a red cloth belt, it’s worthless, they just used it to make money.”

Zhao Lei’s heart moved, thinking that the red belts around Duan Chen and Yao Tiande’s waists are really ordinary, they are indeed ordinary red cloth belts. Some belts, I couldn’t help but wonder: “Then if we make some red cloth belts as belts, will we get away with it?”

Li Haitang smiled and said, “We haven’t thought about this, and I guess no one dares. If they are caught, it would be incredible. Besides, they must have their own way of distinguishing. How can people get over it so easily.”

Wang Xuan nodded slightly, Li Haitang and the other six were only a day earlier than them, and they didn’t know much information. Originally, he wanted to ask the core members of the five major forces in detail, how strong they are, so as to know the details of the Rakshasa, but unfortunately Li Haitang six people knew nothing about it.

Everyone chatted for a while, and when they could not ask any more clues, Wang Xuan left.

The six Li Haitang watched them leave, and the other five sat down along the pile of rocks, only Li Haitang was still standing.

The six of them are newcomers who only came yesterday. If they can’t pay the crystal scales, they can only come to the Snake Domain. They must collect the crystal scales that the six people need to pay before they can return to the insect town again. Rest outdoors.

“Wang Xuan, can you see the strength of these six people? I feel that Li Haitang seems to be interested in you. Before we leave, she is still a little reluctant to part.” Zhao Lei secretly glanced back and said softly: ” Look back, Li Haitang is still standing there watching you.”

Wang Xuan turned around curiously and found that the other five were sitting down to rest, only Li Haitang was still standing there, his eyes seemed to glow faintly in the night, he didn’t know if it was an illusion, as if he was really looking at him.

It seemed that she also saw Wang Xuan looking back at her, so she smiled, then raised her hand and waved goodbye to him.

Wang Xuan smiled embarrassedly, turned his head back in a hurry, and whispered to Zhao Lei: “Don’t talk nonsense, people are just enthusiastic, maybe she looks at you.” Thought this Li Haitang is not ugly, but It’s not pretty either, and it’s really unremarkable in terms of looks, but it’s quite friendly, and it’s easy to make people feel good when they see it, at least it’s not annoying.

Hearing the whispers of the two men, Gu Manyao hummed slightly, and said with a stern face: “I really have you, and sure enough, no matter when the man is lustful, we are all anxious not to know what to do with the Rakshasa thing, you guys. It’s good, we can also discuss which one of you girls likes.”

Wang Xuan said: “Gu Manyao, don’t talk nonsense, what is **** heart immortality…”

As soon as he said this, he suddenly closed his mouth again, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes landed on the edge of a rock pile dozens of meters ahead.

Just now, he heard a movement from there.

Gu Manyao wanted to say more, but suddenly saw Wang Xuan’s words and stopped halfway through. She knew Wang Xuan better, and immediately understood that he must have found out. As soon as her right hand tightened, the Yaochi Knife appeared.

“There is movement there. Let’s take a look at it slowly. Everyone spreads out a little distance from each other, so as to avoid unexpected situations and can’t use their hands and feet. Of course, the maximum distance should not exceed five meters.” Wang Xuanfang In a low voice, he pointed at the stone pile dozens of meters away, while reminding everyone.

The people behind him heard his words, and they all spread out slowly, keeping a little distance from each other, even if there is an emergency, they have room to adapt and move.

In the shop that sold supplies before, just because Zhao Lei and Gu Manyao were close to Wang Xuan, Wu Yi suddenly rushed between Bai Yan and Yu Shanshan. Although Wang Xuan reacted, he wanted to intercept Wu Yi, even if he used it. The metal tentacles must bypass Zhao Lei and Gu Manyao in front of them, pass Zhang Haofei and Tie Jun, and make a big circle before they can intercept Wu Yi.

As for Wu Yi, he was a strong man, his speed was almost no slower than Wang Xuan, and he was simply too late.

If he could have rushed into the space between Bai Yan and Yu Shanshan to intercept him at that time, then there would be no such thing.

They have come here all the way, and have experienced countless times of teaming up to hunt monsters, and they have a tacit understanding of each other, but there has never been a problem because of the distance between everyone’s standing. The ability to take care of everyone, the slight difference between the distance and the distance, has no effect on him.

But as his current strength is getting stronger and stronger, especially his metal tentacles have grown to five meters long, and he can attack from the air at a distance of five or six meters, he began to gradually realize that the distance between everyone The distance of the space began to affect his performance.
