Lord God: Times have changed

Chapter 146 Branch Lines and Branch Lines

"Linley, what's going on here?"

Seeing the three reincarnations rushing in front of him, Zhou Ming glanced back at the Spartan team and said, "Obviously, I brought back the support from Sparta."

"Huh? You are the one who went to Sparta to ask for help? But, shouldn't the person who asked for help go out long ago?"

It seemed that they, like Zhou Ming, thought that Heles had sent someone to Sparta for help.

Zhou Mingdao: "Don't mention it, the village head of Heles is a scumbag. When we arrived, he didn't send anyone to ask for help at all. If I didn't ask the village head a few more times, I knew about it. It is estimated that if we wait here until we die, Sparta’s support will not come.”

The three of them were taken aback: "This village chief is too stupid!"

Immediately, the three of them, together with Zhou Ming, led the team to the village and met the village chief.

"Okay, warrior, you brought Sparta's support back so quickly. That's great. We, Heles, can rest easy now!" Out.

[The side mission is completed, the reward will be issued immediately]

After receiving the message, Zhou Mingxi smiled and said, "Village Chief, this is what I should do!"

The village chief asked the people in the village to prepare a welcome banquet, which was also a thank-you banquet for Zhou Ming. However, this banquet only started at dinner time. Before that, the monsters would attack two or three times.

So it is better to arrange defense first.

Hei Di and She Ri also got the news at this time and came to the village to thank Zhou Ming a lot.

They didn't know about the side quests, they only knew that because of Zhou Ming, their advanced main quest was completed ahead of schedule.

It only takes three days of defense to successfully complete the main line.

And this defense, with the assistance of the Spartans, will be a piece of cake!

Anyway, it doesn't cost money to say thank you, so naturally thank you a lot.

After some excitement, Zhou Ming took a chance to leave to check the rewards of the previous mission this time.

The attribute points and skill points have already been credited, but in the reincarnation world, they cannot be strengthened. They must go back to the main god's space and use the big light ball in the exclusive space to strengthen.

But the special reward 'Teleportation Stone' has already arrived!
This is an irregular transparent stone, the size of a fist.

【Teleportation Stone】

Grade: eight layers·red

Space Coordinate: Consume [-] points of energy to form a space coordinate at the current location, after which it will occupy the upper limit of [-] points of energy, and keep the existence of the space coordinate. After canceling, this restriction will be lifted.Up to two spatial coordinates can be set
Portal: Infuse one hundred points of energy into the teleportation stone, and after five seconds, the teleportation stone will open a portal to the space coordinates.The portal exists for three seconds

Evaluation: From then on, there is no need to run back and forth again!
"Try it?"

Zhou Ming set a spatial coordinate at his current location, then ran to the depths of the valley behind the village, and saw the revived Master Sati.

After swiping the skill on him, he ran out of the hatred range and set a space coordinate.

One hundred points of energy was poured in, and when Zhou Ming held the transmission tightly, five seconds later, the space in front of him suddenly rippled, forming a white light gate with a width of one meter and a height of two meters.

After Zhou Ming walked in, he returned to the village as expected.

"This thing is very useful, but it may not be suitable for use in battle. Time is a big drawback."

After infusing energy, it takes five seconds for the teleportation stone to open the portal, and he must hold the teleportation stone tightly during these five seconds.

The opened portal also lasts for three seconds, during which time he can walk in by himself, but enemies can follow him in as well.

These five seconds and three seconds are all flaws of the teleportation stone, so it is of course nothing to use it normally.But if it is in the middle of a battle and wants to escape from the battle through the teleportation stone, these two points are fatal flaws.

"However, if this effect is used well, sometimes it may be able to exert a miraculous effect."

Zhou Ming thought silently in his heart.

After that, every 10 minutes, he used the teleportation stone to attract the hatred of Mage Sati and refresh his skills.

At the same time, he also formally joined Heles' defensive team and participated in the defensive work.

It's a bit funny to say, since he's been here for nearly two days, he hasn't participated in a single defense. Although he has completed the advanced main and side quests, the progress of the main quests is still zero.

According to Hei Di, these monsters would attack 24 times in 24 hours a day.The reincarnation does not need to be there every time, it only needs to participate in 12 defenses, and it is considered a day.Less than 12 times does not count as a day.

As for the remaining 12 times, it doesn't matter whether you participate or not.

However, even if you participate in 24 defenses in one day, it will not count as two days, it is still one day!
And their five reincarnations basically participated in every battle, not for anything else, but for the gold coins that exploded from those monsters.

After all, according to their original thinking, this may be a defensive game. Those gold coins are important resources and cannot be wasted.

In addition, since it was four or five o'clock in the afternoon when Zhou Ming came back, even if he participated in every subsequent defense, he still couldn't make up twelve times.

This day is nothing.

After learning about this, Zhou Ming resolutely gave up the day's defense, left the village, and ran towards Sparta. A few hours later, he returned to the valley where the centaur tribe was located, and set another space coordinate outside the valley. .

In this way, he can repeatedly teleport between Master Sati and Nessus, constantly improving his skill level, and at the same time, he will not miss Heles' defense.

During this process, Zhou Ming suddenly discovered that the interval between Master Sati's rebirth was not one day, but eight hours.

This means that Master Sati is not actually a leader-level monster, but an elite monster among wild monsters.

Among the existing maps, only Nessus is the real boss and the target of the challenge mission.

In the blink of an eye, another three days passed.

Zhou Ming easily completed the main task. At the same time, within three days, he raised the skills of the three mages to the full level.

However, after obtaining two skills from Nessas, there is little hope of upgrading to the full level.

The initial level of the holy silver crossbow is level ten, and the highest level is thirty. If you want to upgrade to the full level, you need to cross the entire twenty-level obstacle in the middle.

But the corresponding skill user is no one else except Nessas.

It's too difficult.

And the other skill summons the arrow tower, and the level is not low.

【Summon Arrow Tower】

Rating: 16/24
Summon Arrow Tower: Consume 320 energy points to summon an Arrow Tower within your spell attack range.The arrow tower will disappear when its defense value reaches zero, but before that, unless you actively cancel it, the arrow tower will exist forever

Arrow Tower: The Arrow Tower is five meters high. When attacked, it will release a protective cover. The protective cover has a defense value of the summoner's will attribute × 100

Elf archers: There are four elf archers inside the arrow tower, and they will shoot arrows with a damage value of 80 to the enemy at the speed of two arrows per second.The health value of the elf archer is bound to the arrow tower. If the arrow tower does not disappear, the archer will never die

Elven Mage: Add an Elf Mage to the Arrow Tower. This mage will not perform any attack skills, but can only release recovery skills on the Arrow Tower every five seconds, recovering 200+ summoner's spiritual attribute defense value

Enchanting (open at level 20): Elven mages can enchant the arrows of elf archers to cause 40 points of magic damage

Double Arrow Tower (open at level 24): Add a new shooting position, where there are also four elf archers and one elf mage

Evaluation: I will - defend a city alone!
The initial level of the Summoning Arrow Tower was only level eight, but now it has been upgraded to level sixteen, thanks to those ordinary centaurs.

As early as two days ago, the other five reincarnations had completed the main mission, so they left Heles voluntarily to find the target of the challenge mission.

Now they have found Nessus, but so far there is no way to kill him.

Zhou Ming will also face a choice right now.

One is to continue to hold on to Heles, and there are still five days left. If he continues, until the end of the ten-day time limit, his main quest should be overfulfilled. Adding that side quest, there is a high probability of getting To S-level evaluation.

The second is to leave, of course not to Sparta, but to the Megara that the businessman said before.

But in this way, Zhou Ming had to revoke a space coordinate.

If Heles is revoked, the main story cannot be overfulfilled.If you cancel the centaur tribe, you can't continue to upgrade your skills.After all, it is impossible for him to come back to upgrade his skills after leaving Sparta.

In addition, the road to Megara has exceeded the main god's plan for these reincarnations, and it is very likely to encounter super-level monsters, which is naturally more dangerous.

Taking out a gold coin, Zhou Ming thought about it, and suddenly threw it high into the sky, as if he wanted to determine his choice based on the result of the coin toss.

However, before the gold coin fell, he reached out and grabbed it.

"Sure enough, I have already made a decision in my heart!"

Zhou Ming put away the gold coins, took out the teleportation stone, canceled the space coordinates of Heles, then opened the teleportation gate, and stepped outside the centaur tribe.

From this moment on, if he wanted to return to Heles, he had to spend a few hours running back by himself.

However, at this moment, he has made up his mind and is not going to return to Heles.

"If you can't get the S-level evaluation, you can't get it. It's just five or six attribute points and four or five skill points. And I just need to keep moving forward and face more monsters, so I can get more skills !"

Going west from the centaur tribe for a certain distance, you can see a road leading to a new map.

When Zhou Ming came here, a panel suddenly appeared in front of him.

[The road ahead does not belong to the scope of the eighth floor map. If you continue to move forward, you will encounter monsters beyond the eighth floor. Please consider carefully]

"I've already thought about it."

Zhou Ming had already seen this hint a few days ago when he was exploring the map.

At that time, his main task had not been completed, so he did not move forward.But at this moment, he stepped forward directly.

The prompt in front of him also disappeared.

Withered and yellow roads, large trees scattered in disorder.

The environment in front of him was similar to the part behind him, but it gave Zhou Ming the feeling of seeing a new world.

He put on full equipment, holding the Fiery Rod in one hand, and the Taiping Dao Sword in the other, and then started to move forward.

The monsters I encountered at first were orcs, wild beasts, mixed with a few centaurs.But after walking not far away, Zhou Ming saw a creature that looked like an elf.

They looked like women and attacked with bows and arrows, but they didn't show any strange skills.

Zhou Ming's fully armed defensive power could completely ignore the bows and arrows of these creatures, and he would continue to move forward after finishing them off.

Going forward, after destroying an orc gathering point, Zhou Ming found a ruin.

I don't know how many years ago the building was, but it was already dilapidated, only a layer of stone bricks remained, and a few broken pillars were only half left, so that people could know that there was a building in this place.

Among the ruins lay dozens of bones, still wearing equipment.

Zhou Ming wanted to take a closer look, but the bones creaked, and then he stood up directly, holding a staff, longbow, spear and other weapons in his hands.

It was only then that Zhou Ming realized that these skeletons should be a kind of wild monsters, and they looked rather novel.

It's a pity that they don't know any new skills, even those mages are playing back and forth with ice hockey, electric ball and fireball.

"Is the designer of this game a little lazy? There are so many different types of wild monsters, but they use the same tricks?"

Zhou Ming complained in his heart, and after he dealt with the group of wild monsters casually, he turned and left.

A few hours later, Zhou Ming came to a village. This village was much larger than Heles, but it was also affected by wild monsters. Especially in the west of the village, a large group of spider-like monsters were attacking frantically, trying to destroy the village. into the village.

However, there are quite a few young and middle-aged people in this village, who overcame the attack of those spiders and eliminated them all.

Zhou Ming saw an acquaintance in the village, who was the businessman he met earlier.

The businessman's memory is pretty good, and when he saw Zhou Ming, he thought of him: "Warrior, it's you, you also came to Taiji!"

So this is Taiji?

Zhou Ming said, "Well, I'm going to Megara."

"Oh, Megara is not far ahead. After you walk through a mountain, you can see the sea. If you go along the coast, the first city you see is Megara."

Zhou Ming didn't expect the businessman to be so enthusiastic, and quickly thanked him for showing him the direction.

The businessman said: "Warrior, you are so strong, can you help Taiji solve that big trouble?"

"Huh? What's the trouble?"

"Taiji's drinking water is usually taken from the river west of the village, but recently the river has become extremely turbid and undrinkable for some reason, and the villagers can only drink spare drinking water. But these spare drinking water are also running out recently. If things go on like this, people will suffer from severe water shortages, and will have no strength to fight, and those spiders will definitely attack the village."

【Trigger side mission】

[Sub-quest: Poisonous spring water]

Explanation: The drinking water near Taiji Village has become turbid recently, please investigate the cause and solve it
Reward: three attribute points, one skill point, one thousand points

Zhou Ming's eyes lit up immediately.

Abandoning Heles' defense, in fact, he has already prepared in his heart that he will not be able to get an S-level evaluation after the end of the world.

Unexpectedly, here, I encountered another side mission.

You know, completing side missions can also improve your evaluation.

Maybe, with these side quests, Zhou Ming can still get an S-level evaluation!
Have your cake and eat it too!

"So that's it. I just want to go to the west to have a look. If I can investigate clearly, I will help you solve it."

Zhou Ming agreed immediately.

He actually wanted to see those spider monsters in the west, and see if there were any new skills that could trigger his bug.Now that the side mission is triggered, it's even more important to go!

Leaving from the village entrance on the west side of the village, there is a dense forest in front of you. Spiders are running around on the ground. These spiders are all huge in size, the smallest is more than one meter long, and the largest is probably more than two meters long.

If someone with arachnophobia came here, they would be scared to death on the spot.

Zhou Ming walked into the hatred range of these spiders, and all the spiders attacked him together.One of them opened its mouth and spat out a huge spider web, trying to catch him.

The other spiders sprayed green poisonous water respectively.

'Times have changed' no response.

The spider web is a skill to trap the enemy, and it has no lethality, and the poisonous water is also immune to Zhou Ming's Hundred Poisons Battle Body.

Although this map is over level eight, these mobs are ordinary mobs, and the poisonous water they emit is naturally not level eight, so they can't affect Zhou Ming at all.

Zhou Ming threw out a Thunderbolt Talisman to kill all the spiders.

"It seems that you can't get skills from ordinary little spiders, let's investigate the river first."

Zhou Ming gave up entanglement with these spiders, came to the river, walked up the river, and after walking for a while, he saw a cave with a woman who looked like an elf standing at the entrance.

"Creeps?"

Zhou Ming approached, but the elf did not attack, but asked with a glimmer of hope: "Human, are you here to investigate the river water problem?"

"Huh? It's not a wild monster, is it an NPC?"

Zhou Ming nodded and said, "Yes. I was entrusted by the villagers of Taiji Village to investigate the cause of the pollution of the river."

"Fortunately, I am the water fairy who is in charge of the source of the river. The reason why this river has become so muddy and undrinkable is because a large group of spider monsters appeared at the source of the river."

The water fairy explained slowly.

"Most of these spider monsters do not have the power to affect the river water, but there are three exceptionally powerful ones. The toxin they release can affect the entire water source, and then affect the river. If you want to make the river clear , we must get rid of those three powerful spider monsters."

It seems that this should be part of a side mission.

Zhou Ming hurriedly said: "So that's it. Well, for the sake of all the villagers in Taiji Village, I will go to the source of the river and wipe out those monsters!"

"Really? Warrior, are you actually willing to destroy those monsters?"

"Yes!"

The water fairy said happily: "Thank you, warrior, the source of the spring water is in the depths of this cave, and those monsters are also there. I am here waiting for your triumph!"

[Submission information change]

Explanation: The duty of the water fairy is to protect the source of the spring water, and it is her dereliction of duty that the river water is polluted now.If you can solve this problem, the water fairy will give you a 'pure fountain of life' as a thank you.

Added rewards: pure spring of life, after drinking, it can permanently increase 140 points of extra vitality
Zhou Ming's spirit was shaken, he smiled, and said, "Don't worry! I will take care of those spiders."

With that said, he walked directly into the cave.

The cave was dark, Zhou Ming was wearing tights, and the gold-touching ghost candle took effect immediately, releasing light that only he could see, illuminating the surroundings.

Inside the cave, there are spiders all over the place, and they look bigger than the ones outside. They look really scary.

In addition, there are several large and small pools, which seem to be the water source of the river outside.

Zhou Ming threw out a water blade group killing talisman, mobilized the water in the surrounding pools, turned it into five water blades, and slashed at the five spider monsters.

One of them was directly dismembered by the water blade and died on the spot. The remaining four were not such a coincidence. The position of the water blade slash was not right.

These few spiders struggled and rushed towards Zhou Ming frantically, which also drove other spiders to rush towards him together.

Zhou Ming couldn't help frowning.

Of course it wasn't because of the attacks of these spiders, but because of the spider that was cut by the water blade.

Under such a serious injury, he could still attack wildly.

The vitality is really tenacious!

If it was an orc, he might die on the spot.

This may be related to the switch of the map. Taiji should be a map belonging to the ninth floor category, and these spiders are also stronger than ordinary wild monsters.

Water Shield Talisman!
Zhou Ming threw out another talisman, and a large pool of water turned into a shield to block Zhou Ming. He took out the lightning-falling talisman to activate it, and suddenly the lightning flashed, killing a group of spiders.

This cave is the source of the river, filled with water vapor, the power of the Thunderbolt Talisman seems to have increased a little.

Holding the water shield in this way, Zhou Ming slowly entered the depths of the cave.

There is only one water pool deep in the cave, but its area is several times that of other water pools, and the spring water in the pool is rushing.

On the other side of the pool, you can see three huge spiders that are more than three meters long and nearly four meters tall.Half of their bodies were submerged in the pool, and they spit out dark green turbid liquid from their mouths, which mixed with the pool water, turning the clear pool water into poisonous water.

With the light of the ghost candle, Zhou Ming also saw dozens of smaller spiders behind the three giant spiders.

Of course, this small size is also relative to the three giant spiders.

To be cautious, Zhou Ming threw an exploration technique first, but the result he got made him gasp.

These three spiders should be elite monsters, but their attributes are almost the same as those of Nessus.

Coupled with the dozens of spider monsters, it can be said that they are a group that is more troublesome than the centaur tribe.

Zhou Ming thought for a while, and directly consumed 320 energy points to summon an arrow tower.

The five-meter-high arrow tower is a circle with a diameter of three meters. It is completely made of stones, and there is no road leading to the top.

Four elf archers and an elf mage stood at the top of the arrow tower.

Zhou Ming stepped on the arrow tower, jumped on it, and said in a low voice, "Let's attack."

"Yes."

The five elves responded in a low voice.

I don't know what's going on, but the five elves attached to the summoning arrow tower are all women, and the elves have always been known for their beauty.The four elf archers were tall and graceful, wearing light armor, revealing large areas of fair skin.The elf mage was wearing a white gold-rimmed robe, showing only a small face, but his facial features were delicate and endearing.

The voices of their responses were also like jewels touching each other, very pleasant to hear.

Zhou Ming felt that just by relying on these five elves, the skill of summoning the arrow tower could be sold for millions in the main god space!
Believe in the power of sp!
