Sakurazuka Tsukasa continued to pick through the fallen leaves as he spoke to Unsworn Sword, "If it's an expert, the traps won't be so simple. The ones hidden under the leaves might just be to attract our attention. Perhaps there are more powerful traps hidden deeper in the forest. "
"More powerful traps? What are they?" Unsworn Sword asked nervously.
"Hunting traps that have a longer duration," Sakurazuka Tsukasa replied. Unsworn Sword really wanted to slap this guy to death.
"Everyone, watch your step!" Unsworn Sword turned around to remind everyone. Needless to say, from the moment the first person stepped into the trap and screamed, everyone had already started to pay attention to their feet.
"Can we still move forward?" Unsworn Sword asked Sakurazuka Tsukasa.
"The trap itself is harmless," Sakurazuka Tsukasa replied. "Its purpose is to restrict movement. As you can see, it can last for more than a minute. After that, the ranged classes will attack. This is the main strategy used in conjunction with traps. If we advance without understanding the situation, no matter how many people there are, we will only be devoured. "
"Can't we find all the traps?" Unsworn Sword looked at the wooden stick in Sakurazuka Tsukasa's hand.
"Theoretically, yes. But don't forget, the traps are dead, but the people are alive. A real trap expert won't just lay a trap and wait for the rabbit. When you step into it, the trap is a restriction; when you don't, it's a kind of restriction. When you're trying so hard to find the trap, you've already fallen into their trap. They naturally have a way to deal with it. "
"I know …" Unsworn Sword took a deep breath. Sakurazuka Tsukasa was too long-winded. Even if he didn't understand traps, he could still figure out the logic behind them.
"So, the key isn't how many traps there are, but how many people are controlling them! How many people are waiting for us to step into their traps! "Sakurazuka Tsukasa's voice became lower as he spoke. After he finished speaking, he looked around with a deep gaze. There was only a slight rustling of leaves in the forest. Coupled with Sakurazuka Tsukasa's tone, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill. They looked around, searching for the profound question of "how many people are there?"
"Let's stop advancing. Call the leaders over and discuss our strategy," Unsworn Sword announced.
At the end of the line, all the players were waiting for news from the front. Suddenly, Gu Fei turned around and shouted, "There's someone!"
"Who is it?" It wasn't just the members of Gongzi's Elite Group. Even Unsworn Sword, who was at the front of Team Dalian, heard Gu Fei's voice.
Gu Fei looked at the forest behind them warily. "Someone was there just now."
"Is it a human or an NPC?" Brother You said.
"It's a human. NPCs don't have killing intent." Gu Fei said.
Murderous aura … Everyone looked at Gu Fei strangely.
"I'll go take a look!" Gu Fei unsheathed his sword and carefully walked in the direction where he felt the killing intent. The feeling just now was fleeting. Judging from experience, the other party must have noticed Gu Fei for a split second. Gu Fei couldn't point out the exact direction, but he was sure that someone was there!
"I'll go with you." Sword Ghost also unsheathed his dagger and entered stealth. He carefully followed Gu Fei's lead. Behind them, everyone was watching. Not long after, Unsworn Sword and the others, who were at the very front of the group, arrived and asked, "What's going on?"
A player pointed at Gu Fei's figure in the forest. "He said there's someone behind him."
"Who is it? Is it a player or an NPC? "Reflection Years blurted out.
Everyone had a strange expression. Mr. Han sighed. "Damn it, can't you be a little more creative with your questions?"
Reflection Years looked unhappy. Mr. Han quickly smiled at him. "I'm sorry, I'm not targeting you." Reflection Time's expression softened slightly, but Young Master Han added, "It's directed at everyone, including you." Everyone, including Reflection Time, was so angry that their noses were crooked.
"Be careful!" Gu Fei, who was searching, suddenly shouted. Then everyone saw Gu Fei's body lean back and jump. At the same time, the Night Streamer in his right hand slashed down. With a ding, there seemed to be a flash of light at Gu Fei's feet. Gu Fei landed steadily and said in a low voice, "There's a trap."
Sakurazuka Tsukasa hurried over and saw that there was an activated trap in front of Gu Fei's feet. It was even more exquisite than the one at the front of the group. There was even a faint flash of metal. Two teeth that would normally clamp a person's feet were tightly locked together. It was chilling to see.
The Sword Ghoul retreated from stealth. Gu Fei's "be careful" was, of course, meant for him. Gu Fei was still fearful. "This trap is really sick. It can even chase and bounce."
But it was obvious that everyone looked at Gu Fei as if they were looking at a sick person. In that instant, it was clear that Gu Fei had stepped on the trap and immediately retracted his feet to dodge. However, this trap could actually jump from the ground and follow him for a short period of time. Thus, Gu Fei's longsword slashed down and cut down the trap. It was obvious who was the sick one!
"Brother Zui, you're too ridiculous. You can even dodge that …" Even Sakurazuka Tsukasa didn't have the mood to study his favorite trap.
Gu Fei didn't answer him. He continued to look into the depths of the forest. "I'm afraid there are more."
At this time, Sworn Sword and the others had already come over. Sakurazuka Tsukasa's first words were, "Have you timed it?"
"What time?"
"Nonsense, the trap time!" Sakurazuka Tsukasa said.
"Didn't it miss?"
"It still activated even if it missed! After activation, the trap will only disappear after the time limit is up. It can still be timed. You guys should really learn more about traps! "Sakurazuka Tsukasa said with a pained expression.
The Guild Leader of Reigning the Four Seas, Sworn Sword, was speechless. However, he also realized a problem. This time, everyone had arrived at the same time and saw the trap activate. Why was this guy blaming them instead of timing it? Wasn't he just using it as an excuse? How despicable. Unsworn Sword thought to himself.
"This trap is even stronger than the one before." Sakurazuka Tsukasa said, "And according to Brother Zui, it can bounce. This should be the effect of a higher level of mastery. This means that its bounce is even more terrifying."
"What about your trap? What's the speed of your trap?" Sworn Sword suddenly asked.
Sakurazuka Tsukasa smiled bitterly. "Mine isn't even as good as the one before. I dropped a level when I was 40." Below Level 40, a player would learn a new skill every 6 levels. For example, Level 12, Level 18, etc. Adding on to Level 40, these few levels were known as skill levels. Usually, when a player died and dropped a level, the most terrifying thing was to drop below the skill level. This was because skills below the skill level would disappear. When you leveled up, you would have to learn the skill again and practice it again. "Dropping skill levels" was a more terrifying threat to the players than dropping a level.
"Looks like we've been surrounded." Sakurazuka Tsukasa squatted down and looked at the trap, then stood up and said.
This was a conclusion that anyone with a brain would have already reached.
The place that Gu Fei had gone to was the place that the thousand of them had just passed. Obviously, this trap was only set up after they passed. Perhaps the moment Gu Fei noticed it, it was the moment when the other party secretly set up the trap and left. There was no doubt that this trap was definitely targeted at them.
"Is it a player or an NPC? Is it a player or an NPC?" Shadow Years was still struggling with this question.
"It's a player." Gu Fei replied with certainty.
"How do you know?" Someone had told him, but he still wanted more accurate evidence, especially since the person who spoke was Gu Fei.
Gu Fei shrugged. "I saw it." It was better not to mention the murderous aura. If he did, these players would act like the students in his school and treat Gu Fei, who claimed to know martial arts, as a problem …
"You saw it? You can tell at a glance whether it's a player or an NPC? There are so many NPCs in the city, which one of them looks any different from a player … Hey, where are you going? I'm not done yet … "Shadow Years continued to ramble on, and Gu Fei teleported away.
"What do we do?" The three core members of The Four Seas gathered again, along with the leaders of the various mercenary groups.
"The ones we sent to search have also found the trap. We are now surrounded by a large trap." Sakurazuka Tsukasa explained the situation. His mercenary group had always been in charge of the investigation of the traps. Unsworn Sword was very pleased to have hired this mercenary group, which was widely known to the outside world as a wretched mercenary group.
"Can't we remove all the traps?" Someone asked.
"No!" Unsworn Sword stopped Sakurazuka Tsukasa in time and started his long "Trap Theory".
"Why?" In the end, the person who asked this question wanted to get to the bottom of it, so Sakurazuka Tsukasa proudly gave a long speech.
Unsworn Sword forced himself to hold back. His eyes swept across the crowd, and he wanted to say a few words to emphasize the seriousness of the situation. But after looking around, he suddenly had a little doubt. After looking again, he could confirm his doubt. He looked at Shadow Years and asked, "Where's Silvermoon?"
At this time, it was a meeting between The Four Seas' core members and the mercenary group leaders. All the leaders had arrived, but Silvermoon was nowhere to be seen.
Shadow Years had only called out to the group leaders once, and only now did he realize that someone had not arrived. He had to admit that Silvermoon's concealment of his existence was quite successful. Only at this special moment did people realize that he had been gone for a long time.
"Where is he!" Unsworn Sword muttered, and prepared to privately contact Silvermoon.
"He left," someone suddenly said.
