Chapter 0006: Indeed, one should not casually set a flag

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

At that moment, a strange sound suddenly emerged from the dense forest in the distance. It resembled the cries of a woman, yet also sounded like the retching of a drunken person. Upon hearing this sound, the expressions of Ramford and the sister of the Holy Order changed instantly

[Scene Task Trigger: Guardian II]

Well done

Completion of Scene Task "Guardian" Progress 2

Corpse Mother

After once again cutting down a zombie, Fang Zheng also let out a sigh of relief. He looked up and surveyed his surroundings, only to see that apart from the flames at the entrance of Tristam Town, everything else was shrouded in darkness. The only sounds he could hear were the low growls of the zombies and the occasional flicker of light.

User gains dimensional points + 1

The gap between the Nephilim and ordinary people was instantly revealed in this moment. Captain Ramford needed several strikes to injure the undead, but under the onslaught of this holy warrior girl with her meteor hammer, they didn't even last a single round. Fang Zheng merely watched as she raised the meteor hammer and swung it forward, and those undead were sent flying as if swept away by an autumn breeze, it was simply effortless!

Bang

Drink!

The holy light erupted instantaneously. In Fangzheng's eyes, he watched as the head of the corpse mother began to crack. Fissures appeared on the skin of the corpse mother, and then a dazzling, sacred radiance shot out from the gaps, growing ever brighter. Following a loud "bang," the body of the corpse mother suddenly exploded, and then turned to ashes in the white, divine flames

Upon witnessing this scene, Fang Zheng's eyes lit up. He glanced to the side, where the holy army was currently entangled by the undead, unable to free themselves for the moment. As long as he could catch up, that head would surely be his!

I can't believe it

At the same time, a system notification sound once again echoed in Fang Zheng's ear, followed by lines of information appearing before his eyes

It was only at this moment that Fang Zheng felt a trace of fear. While playing the game, his only feeling was that the constant grinding was utterly annoying. The most he could express was a bit of confusion, wondering why humanity was so unfortunate in the dark world. But now, Fang Zheng finally understood that the game and reality were not the same.

Rely on it

Seeing this sudden scene, Fang Zheng was also taken aback. He instinctively raised Frostmourne and thrust it down with force. The sharp blade "swished" through the body of the undead, and then he saw wisps of soul mist rising from the undead's body, which were subsequently absorbed into the blade of Frostmourne. Following that, the trembling remains of the undead fell silent as if they had lost their source of energy.

The reason why humanity in the dark world was driven to the brink of extinction is also due to certain factors

Even if Fang Zheng defeats these undead, it is entirely reliant on the power of the Holy Light struck by the Crusaders. However, Nephthys completely relies on her own strength; with a single blow, those unfortunate undead are nearly reduced to nothing but bones, while those with better luck are directly sent flying. Fang Zheng watched in amazement, and at this moment, he finally gained a direct understanding of Nephthys's power.

The corpse mother must be killed

Indeed, one should not casually set a flag

Boom!!

Upon witnessing this scene, Fang Zheng was immediately taken aback. Without hesitation, he canceled his skill and rolled to the side. Accompanied by a soft "pop," the pile of filth landed on the ground not far from Fang Zheng. With the faint light, he could even see the dark green, constantly swelling bubbles on top, and the surrounding ground began to emit white smoke and slowly sink downwards. One could imagine that if he were hit by this thing, there would be absolutely no good outcome.

Indeed ... ...

Crusade Strike

Glancing at the soul power value displayed by the system in front of him, Fang Zheng took a breath. Although this continuous grinding was not what he desired, it seemed that, in any case, the task of Frostmourne absorbing souls now appeared to have a chance of completion. In the dark world, there was no shortage of monsters, and Fang Zheng believed that Frostmourne must also have a great fondness for these evil souls

However, it is fortunate that this task is relatively simple; it only involved killing a corpse mother, which resulted in a small amount of dimensional points being credited. If future tasks are all this simple, then it would be even more...

Frostmourne is still hungry!

Ugh---!!

Is this truly the real dark world

Haah... Haah... This damn... Isn't it a bit too much

Upon hearing Captain Ramford's voice, Fang Zheng responded without turning his head, and then he gripped the Frostmourne tightly and charged into the dense forest

A great opportunity

Holding the Frostmourne in his hand and staring at the undead staggering out of the darkness, Fang Zheng could not help but gasp for breath. He could not remember how many undead he had slain; he only remembered that for every one he cut down, two more would emerge from the side. After taking down two, four more would appear. It was as if they were endless, seemingly impossible to kill them all.

He picked up Frostmourne and looked again at the corpse mother before him. The corpse mother glared at him fiercely, and as Fangzheng turned to look, she opened her mouth, as if to scream.

As he watched the Holy Knights once again sweep away the undead before him, Fang Zheng was momentarily taken aback, suddenly recalling that he had not come here merely to observe the spectacle

Crusade Strike

The Crusader Strike has been upgraded to an area skill

I wonder why these damned things cannot be killed no matter how many times I try

However, before Fang Zheng could finish his reflection, the system notification sound once again echoed in his ears, followed by another line of information appearing before him.

This is the shameless face that mobile games have always shown, yet Fangzheng never expected to become a victim himself. Indeed, is it true that those who travel extensively will eventually encounter ghosts?

Seeing the Holy Army being intercepted, Fang Zheng also let out a sigh of relief. If the Holy Army had smashed the corpse mother’s head with a meteor hammer, then his scene task would have naturally failed. However, now that the Holy Army has been stopped, although it is only a little bit of time, it is enough for Fang Zheng!

However, Fang Zheng's speed was fast, and the speed of the Holy Army was not slow either. Just as Fang Zheng stepped into the dense forest, he saw a flash of golden light on the Holy Army not far from him, and then Fang Zheng was astonished to see the other party charging into the depths of the forest like a cannonball.

I know

The proficiency of Crusader Strike skill has been upgraded to level C

Upon seeing this line of task prompt, Fang Zheng was utterly speechless, and he now had only one thought in his mind

The unfortunate corpse mother was immediately struck and sent flying in a spinning motion, but the Holy Army was unable to capitalize on this advantage. At that moment, several undead figures appeared unsteadily before her, blocking the path of the Holy Army.

A great opportunity

235

The reason Fang Zheng is working so hard is not merely to address the threat, but because at the moment Captain Ramford spoke, Fang Zheng also received a prompt from the system

You have detected the source of evil and traced its path, and what remains to be done is to use the blade in your hand to put an end to it (eliminate the Corpse Mother, Dimension Points + 1)

As he watched the staggering undead lurching towards him, Fang Zheng tightened his grip on Frostmourne and roared as he swung forward. Accompanied by a flash of holy light, the undead was instantly cleaved in two at the waist, collapsing to the ground. However, what Fang Zheng did not expect was that at the moment the undead fell, its upper body suddenly sprang up, and then its two hands swiftly crawled across the ground, reaching out towards him.

Ding

Obtain 70 points of soul power

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng also rushed forward without hesitation. He did not possess the powerful charging skills of the Holy Church's army, but fortunately, the corpse mother was knocked away into a clearing in the dense forest. Therefore, Fang Zheng did not spend much time breaking through the thicket, and then he raised Frostmourne high in his hand and swung it down forcefully at the corpse mother

At this moment, Fang Zheng also realized that the Corpse Mother was a monster transformed from the queen's maid. The most notable characteristic of this monster is that it can create more living dead. ... Fang Zheng could not understand the exact principle behind it, but he knew that the process by which the Corpse Mother produced the living dead was through vomiting, and then those living dead would crawl out from that puddle ... . ... Ugh, just thinking about it is enough to make one feel nauseous. He could not grasp the underlying principle, but he was aware that the Corpse Mother produced the living dead by vomiting, and those living dead would emerge from that puddle ... . ... Ugh, merely thinking about it is enough to induce a feeling of disgust.

Wait... what am I doing here watching a show? I still have tasks to complete!

This Fangzheng is also filled with rage. You, a corpse mother who was nearly beaten to death by the Holy Church, actually want to scheme against me? Do you think I am easier to bully?

This situation is not right

Looking at the corpse before you, you deeply realize that the darkness in front of you is not as easily overcome as you had imagined. You feel the inexorable wheel of fate rolling towards you, and all you can do is exert your utmost effort to change it all (alter the predetermined fate, complete the task to randomly receive rewards, dimensional points + 3, failure to complete the task will result in the task world being forcibly locked, countdown 48:00)

Upon seeing this line of information, Fang Zheng rolled his eyes and then opened his skill bar again. As expected, he noticed that one-fifth of the progress bar under the skill "Crusader Strike" had turned orange. At this moment, Fang Zheng was also at a loss for words. He had previously encountered a system where, with the increase in proficiency, the skills themselves would gradually enhance. This was naturally designed to attract both newcomers and veterans, encouraging them to spend money. At this moment, Fang Zheng was also at a loss for words. He had previously encountered a system where, with the increase in proficiency, the skills themselves would gradually enhance. This was naturally designed to attract both newcomers and veterans, encouraging them to spend money. After all, dimensional points could either be accumulated or purchased. Although it is said that the power would increase after the skill proficiency improved... for the average person, dimensional points would definitely be insufficient, while for the wealthy spenders... it would just come down to the issue of buying, buying, buying.

Compared to the "tutorial levels" in the game, the number of undead encountered by Fang Zheng and others is evidently greater. In addition to the first wave of undead that crawled out from underground, several more waves of undead attacks followed one after another. Their numbers increased to the point where even Fang Zheng and the Crusader girl found it difficult to hold them off. The situation was even more dire for the militia, suffering heavy casualties; apart from Captain Ramford, who was still trying to hold on, the other militia members were either dead or injured, and it was clear they would not last much longer.

However, this time, before she could utter a sound, Fang Zheng pierced her mouth with a sword.

[Scene Task Trigger: Guardian III]

The shining Holy Army resembled a meteor streaking through the darkness, crushing everything in its path with its immense force. Immediately after, Fang Zheng saw a figure appear before the Holy Army, which then unhesitatingly raised its shield and forcefully struck the opponent's face.

At the very moment when Fang Zheng swung down his long sword, the corpse mother, who had been lying on the ground, suddenly raised her head. She looked at Fang Zheng and opened her mouth, and then with a sound of "uh," in the next moment, Fang Zheng saw a large mass of filth mixed with a foul odor rushing towards him!

If it were before, seeing the same scene as in the game, Fang Zheng would merely have curled his lips and not taken it too seriously. However, after personally experiencing the troublesome nature of these undead, Fang Zheng finally gained a slight intuitive understanding of the perverse existence of Nephilim

Do you still want to deceive me

Upon thinking of this, Fang Zheng also did not hesitate, gripping the weapon in his hand and charging forward

Silently giving a thumbs up to the corpse mother in his heart, Fang Zheng held onto the Frostmourne and ran along the path opened by the Holy Church's army into the depths of the dense forest. Soon, he saw the unfortunate corpse mother. At that moment, she was crawling on the ground, seemingly unable to even stand up.
