With a loud bang, the monster's head was blasted into pieces.
A wave of hot air with a fishy smell rushed towards Cyber, causing him to cough uncontrollably.
However, compared to the turbid air, his attention was completely attracted by the scene on the other side.
The monster that was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws a moment ago had its upper body completely disappeared.
It fell to the ground, twitching as dark green blood flowed all over the ground …
After a while, it stopped moving.
So … so strong!
Cyber opened his mouth wide.
To kill a silver-ranked monster in one hit, one had to be at least an upper silver-ranked to do so!
This was the experience Cyber had when he was doing missions with high-level NPCs …
What made him even more alarmed was that he didn't sense any other presence until the monster was shot.
As a Hunter player whose five senses were much sharper than other professions and had activated [Detection] and [Blood Elf Transformation], this meant that the attacker's ability to conceal his presence was extremely strong.
Cyber gripped the dagger in his hand tightly and looked towards the direction where the arrow came from. He saw a skinny figure standing on a hill not far away.
He was wearing a tattered armor and slowly put down the longbow in his hand.
When Cyber saw the other party's appearance, he became even more alarmed.
"What kind of monster is this?!"
His heart skipped a beat.
The person who shot the arrow was ugly. The hair on his head was sparse, the ears on both sides had already festered, and his face was filled with pustules and sarcomas.
His eyes were squeezed into a slit by the bulging flesh, and a pair of turbid pupils could be vaguely seen.
His gaze shifted from the monster to Cyber, and he opened his mouth slightly.
Saliva was still dripping from his cracked mouth, and crooked yellow teeth could be seen.
This appearance was uglier than the ugliest monster Cyber had ever seen. It reminded him of the half-orcs in a Bluestar movie, "The Lord of the Rings".
It wasn't the half-orcs in the Segers world. The half-orcs in the Segers world were much more pleasing to the eye than he was. At least those green-skinned monsters wouldn't have nightmares after seeing them.
However, the monster in front of him was different. It could definitely scare children to tears.
Sensing that he was locked on by an aura, Cyber instantly became nervous.
"At least upper silver-ranked …"
His eyes narrowed.
Just as Cyber stared at the intruder cautiously, a dozen more figures appeared on the hill.
They were dressed similarly to the humanoid monsters, wearing tattered armor. Their appearances were like mutants who had been exposed to nuclear radiation. They were hideous and terrifying.
However, although their appearances were ferocious, each of their auras was stronger than the other. Cyber's scalp went numb as he realized that the humanoid monster that killed the giant worm had the weakest aura.
More than ten auras locked onto Cyber. The humanoid monsters raised the longbows in their hands and aimed at Cyber.
At this moment, Cyber finally realized that the arrows in their hands were actually thin bone feathers.
"Phantom … Shadow Fiend …"
The humanoid monster at the front looked at Cyber and said with a hoarse voice.
Phantom Demon?
Cyber was stunned.
When he heard that term, he instantly thought of a cunning Great Demon that could transform into other creatures. They often appeared in the Demon God's Maze and were known as the most troublesome Elite Monsters by the players who cleared the dungeon.
This thought only flashed through his mind.
Cyber understood that the other party was treating him as a demon.
Being able to speak meant that they could communicate.
Cyber suppressed the nervousness in his heart and raised his hands.
"Wait a minute! I'm not a demon! "
After saying that, he suddenly remembered that he had changed the default language to Elven after returning from the Maple Moon Territory. The other party might not understand him.
As for him being able to understand the other party's words …
That was because the name of the demon was transliterated from the Elven language in all the different languages in the continent. Therefore, it was similar.
Of course, when he heard it, he would activate the "Automatic Translation" and translate it into Chinese.
However, just as Cyber was about to change the Elven language in the half-paralyzed system settings to the common language, the humanoid monster spoke again.
"Elven language?"
The hoarse voice had a hint of surprise.
"Elven language?"
After hearing the monster's words, Cyber subconsciously stopped changing the settings.
When conversing with an NPC, the original text of the conversation would be displayed at the bottom of the screen.
Cyber noticed from the corner of his eyes that the other party was speaking … Elven language!
Are they … Are they Elves?!
Once again, Cyber looked at the dozen humanoid monsters with a stunned expression.
Though the Elven language in the world of Segers was one of the three major Mana Languages, only the Elves and some races with Elven bloodline used it as a communication language.
Cyber was suspicious of the monsters' identities.
Thinking of this, he looked at the side of these monsters' faces. Sure enough, on the side of the monsters' faces that were not badly festered, he saw elf-like pointy ears.
Are they really Elves?!
Cyber's heart skipped a beat.
At this moment, he recalled the mysterious disappearance of the Elves in Milovia …
Suddenly, Cyber had a bold guess in his heart.
However, looking at their hideous appearance, he couldn't relate them to the beautiful Elves.
Especially when they got closer, their intense murderous aura was even more exaggerated than the most perverted gamers that Cyber had ever seen. Who knew how many massacres they had to go through?
Sharp ears … weren't unique to the Elves.
Half-Orcs, Orcs, Halflings, Gnomes, Gnomes, and even Goblins all had sharp ears.
While Cyber's imagination was running wild, an old and deep voice was heard among the humanoid monsters.
"Dolly, put down your bow. I don't smell the stench of a Devil on him. He's not a Devil …"
It was still in the Elven language.
Hearing this voice, the humanoid monsters put down their bows and opened up a path.
A humanoid monster with a walking stick appeared in Cyber's vision.
He was as ugly as the other monsters, and his face was full of warts. However, he didn't wear tattered armor. Instead, he wore a grayish-black tattered robe.
His yellowish hair was draped behind him, and a pair of turbid green eyes could be seen on his wrinkled warts.
He leaned on his walking stick and looked at Cyber with a deep gaze.
Just by standing there, he gave Cyber an unprecedented sense of oppression. He reminded Cyber of the feeling he had when he faced Big Sister.
This person … is powerful! He's probably an Advanced professional!
This thought arose in Cyber's mind.
The other party sized up Cyber from head to toe and cast a meaningful glance at the magnificent armor on his body. In the end, his gaze paused on the blood elf bat wings on his back and the bulging veins on both sides of his eyes after he transformed into a blood elf. He asked in a low voice, "What about you?
He asked in a deep voice, "Which tribe are you from?"
Which tribe?
Cyber was taken aback.
He was about to reply when he had a thought, and he kept his prepared words.
He revealed a bewildered expression and said, "I don't know.
"I … I don't know. I only remember feeling dizzy for a moment, and then I appeared here."
Hearing his words, the humanoid monsters exchanged glances.
The leader glanced at the weakest monster who had killed the large worm.
"Dolly."
The monster called Dorei glanced at Cyber coldly.
"He's … speaking the truth."
Could it be used to detect lies?!
Cyber's heart skipped a beat. He was glad that he didn't fabricate lies. Instead, he used words that couldn't be detected.
The elder humanoid monster nodded. He glanced at the sky where the frequency of lightning was getting lower and lower. Then, he looked at the bewildered Cyber and said, "The Black Tide is coming.
"The Black Tide … is coming. Come … with us."
He waved his hand at the others.
"Deal with the corpse quickly."
Following his command, the dozen or so humanoid monsters nodded and walked up to the half of the insect-like monster that had fallen.
They knelt in front of the worm monster and drew a crooked symbol on their chest. Then, they closed their eyes and prayed.
Looking at their actions, Cyber frowned slightly.
He had a feeling that he had seen the symbol before. It was a little familiar.
The humanoid monsters looked ferocious. However, when they were praying, Cyber saw sincerity and serenity in their eyes.
This strong contrast made him take a few more glances.
At this moment, Cyber noticed that the minimap in his vision flashed.
Hmm? The network is restored?
He was delighted.
However, when Cyber checked it, he found that the minimap was still broken. It was as if it was just an illusion.
Cyber was a little disappointed.
At this moment, the humanoid monsters had finished praying. They opened their eyes and took out their rusty daggers. They cut off the muscles of the worm monster and kept them in their bags.
Some of them broke open the worm's shell and collected the dark green blood of the worm. Then, they kept it in their tattered water bags.
A foul stench came from the monster's body. Cyber almost fainted from the stench. He looked at these mysterious existences carefully collecting the flesh of the worm monster. He was impressed by their patience towards the stench.
Then, a ridiculous thought appeared in his mind.
Wait a minute …
They didn't collect these things to eat, right?
He glanced at the stinky worm corpse and felt his scalp tingle.
It shouldn't be … right?
Cyber swallowed a mouthful of saliva and goosebumps appeared all over his body.
The humanoid monsters moved quickly. Soon, only the shell of the worm was left.
However, they didn't even leave the shell behind. Instead, they took it apart and carried it on their backs.
"Let's go."
Seeing that the corpse was dealt with, the humanoid monster with a walking stick said.
After that, he stepped forward and walked in a certain direction.
The other monsters slowly followed.
Cyber was a little hesitant.
The monster named Doray stopped and looked at him coldly.
Cyber was speechless.
He squeezed out a friendly smile and followed.
…
Following the humanoid monsters, Cyber walked in a direction he didn't know.
The monsters were very fast. They were getting faster and faster. They seemed to be in a hurry.
The surroundings were very quiet. The whole world seemed to have died. Even the lightning in the sky was getting lesser and lesser.
Without lightning to illuminate the world, the group could only rely on the illumination magic in their hands. A faint mist began to appear around them.
Cyber noticed that the monsters seemed to be getting more and more nervous.
At this moment, he was no longer nervous.
At most, he would die and return to the city.
On the contrary, these mysterious humanoid monsters made him more and more curious. He felt that he had encountered an incredible plot and not a new map.
Or perhaps, it was a plot that the officials hadn't prepared yet?
Otherwise, why would the system be half-paralyzed? Most of the functions were disabled and he couldn't even connect to the internet?
However, he was sure of one thing.
These monsters didn't have any killing intent towards him.
And the words of the old monster leader just now also made his imagination run wild …
'Which tribe are you from?'
This kind of question … In the world of Segers, only intelligent creatures of the same race would ask when they met.
The seal under the ruins of the Titan …
Elven language …
Humanoid monsters that could use magic and shoot arrows …
Familiar sharp ears …
Could it be … they were really elves?
But, how did they become like this?
Where was this place?
Cyber was full of doubts.
Cyber wanted to ask a question, but the oppressive atmosphere in the group and the strange silence made it difficult for him to speak.
"Tsk … tsk …"
Cyber seemed to see the minimap flash again.
Hmm?
His heart skipped a beat.
Looking at the upper right corner of his vision, Cyber found that the minimap that had been disconnected was slowly recovering. A light dot representing him appeared on it.
It was connected?!
Cyber was overjoyed.
However, when he excitedly clicked on the minimap and the system interface, he found that the connection was still disconnected.
However, part of the minimap's function had recovered. It could record his route and the path he saw.
It was like an offline version.
At this moment, the whole group suddenly slowed down.
"We're almost home."
Cyber heard the humanoid monster with the walking stick heave a sigh of relief.
The other monsters also relaxed, and their expressions were much more relaxed.
Cyber raised his head and looked at the front of the group. He saw a faint light flickering behind the hills.
It was a faint halo that lit up the sky. He could see the thick clouds in the sky.
After relaxing for a while, the group continued forward.
They quickly went around the hills.
An open basin appeared in Cyber's vision.
In an instant, Cyber widened his eyes. His expression was filled with surprise.
In front of him was a dilapidated city. It was like an ancient lost town in the apocalyptic movies.
However, although the city was dilapidated, the iconic roof and decorative stone pillars made Cyber feel very familiar.
That … was a typical elven style!
The color of the entire city was no different from the earth. It seemed to be made of earth and stone. There were also tall walls built around it.
A faint golden barrier covered the entire city. It emitted a faint halo. It was the source of the light that Cyber saw just now.
He was very familiar with this light.
It was the Divine Barrier.
