"A village! It's a village! "
Seeing the scenery at the end of the road, the players were all excited. Even their footsteps became lighter.
In an instant, they ran faster than Eve and led the way to the village.
The mission given by the goddess had the best rewards. Whoever completed the exploration mission first would get a bigger reward than the others.
Although they were all big shots in the game, this was the first time they were working with the goddess. They all wanted to leave a good impression on her.
So … Once they saw the opportunity to complete the mission, even the lazy Li Mu couldn't help but move faster.
Looking at the village in her vision, Eve's gaze softened.
The sealing power of this world was very strange. Even her divine soul's senses were suppressed by more than half.
In this situation, Eve couldn't use her divine soul's senses to explore more than five kilometers away.
The senses of the true god's avatar were suppressed. She was prepared to lead the players to explore for a few days.
But now, seeing the activity of the inhabitants of this dimension so quickly was undoubtedly a good sign.
However, Eve's gaze didn't soften for long.
After taking a few more steps forward, she suddenly frowned slightly. Her gaze towards the distance had a hint of seriousness.
The players didn't notice the expression of the goddess.
They couldn't wait to enter the village and talk to the NPCs.
However, after running for a few steps, Cyber suddenly stopped.
He sniffed the air slightly and looked at the others.
"Hey, do you guys smell blood?"
"Blood?"
The other players were slightly stunned.
Demacia sniffed hard and scratched his head.
"No …"
However, even if they didn't smell the blood that Cyber was talking about, everyone became alert.
Cyber's profession was a hunter. He was quite sensitive to the smell of things.
Especially after he gained the ability of a blood elf.
Soon, the player at the front of the pack suddenly stopped.
He squatted down and checked the wheat by the side of the road.
Seeing his actions, the players all looked over and noticed that he was stroking a broken wheat straw with a serious expression.
"Lunch box, is there a problem?"
Salty Meow asked cautiously as he tightened his grip on his magic staff.
Bento Box nodded.
"It seems to have been cut by a sharp weapon."
Then, he looked to the side of the road and pointed at a messy wheat bush that might be missed if one didn't look carefully.
"There are signs of a fight."
Fighting …
When everyone heard this, they subconsciously turned to look at the goddess, only to find that the smile on her face had disappeared.
It was replaced by a solemn expression.
Looking at the Goddess's expression, the gamers' expressions turned solemn.
If there was anyone who had authority in the team, it would definitely be the Goddess.
The change in the Goddess' expression undoubtedly meant that there was something wrong with the village ahead.
Everyone's expression turned serious as they entered a state of preparation for battle.
The bento box continued to move forward.
The players looked at each other and followed his footsteps.
The group continued forward.
After a few hundred steps, even Demacia, who had the weakest perception, smelled the rusty smell of blood.
At this moment, the lunchbox suddenly stopped.
He walked to the wheat field at the side and used the short knife in his hand to pry open the wheat bush.
In the wheat bush, a human dressed as a villager was lying on the ground with farming tools in his hand.
He was dead, and there were hideous wounds on his body that seemed to be caused by a sharp weapon. His blood had turned black and dyed the ground dark red …
"He should be a villager in the village. This is a human village."
The optimist said in a deep voice.
Everyone nodded.
"He's been dead for a long time. I'm afraid it's been more than a day."
Cyber checked the corpse and said.
More than a day …
The gamers' expressions turned solemn.
The corpse was in the wheat bush beside the dirt road.
If the corpse hadn't been discovered after more than a day, then …
The village ahead …
For a moment, everyone looked at the Goddess in the team.
Seeing the gazes of the gamers, Eve sighed and said softly, "Don't worry.
"Prepare for battle."
This sentence confirmed that there was danger in the village ahead.
"Melee fighters in front, Mages at the back. Pay attention to your surroundings."
Li Mu ordered calmly.
Following his order, the gamers immediately took action and changed their formation according to the ten-man team formation commonly used in "Elven Nation".
Although the goddess was right behind them, everyone was still on high alert.
When the mission plot was triggered, the background of the mission had already described the Goddess's current state. The gamers knew that the Goddess's strength was suppressed in this world.
The Goddess had to conserve energy for her avatar, so she wouldn't take action unless it was a critical moment.
Therefore, as a mission player, they couldn't be careless at all times.
Of course, to Eve, saving energy was just an excuse.
The main reason was that since the gamers were around, the leeks would naturally do the dirty work. As long as it didn't affect the efficiency, she didn't have to act like a nanny.
After realizing that there was something wrong with the village, the group moved more cautiously.
As they gradually approached the village, there were more traces of fighting in the surroundings.
The ground was stained with blood, and new corpses could be seen occasionally. Judging by their attire, they were all villagers.
The way they died was almost the same. They were all injured by sharp weapons. It looked like a weapon, but some of them also had claw marks on their bodies like that of wild beasts.
Many of them had fear on their faces before they died, as if they had seen something terrifying.
The gamers looked around as they moved forward and resisted the urge to turn over the corpses …
Even among these corpses, there were occasionally humans dressed as soldiers. Their equipment looked good, and they even had a faint elven style.
It couldn't be helped. The Goddess was right behind them, and the gamers still wanted to save face.
Entering the village, what greeted their eyes was a mess as if it had been ransacked by bandits.
On the ground, there were more corpses. Not only were they ordinary villagers, but there were also elderly and children. Each one was more miserable than the other, as if they had been tortured to death.
Like the villagers in the wheat field, they had died a day ago.
This tragic situation made the gamers frown. The two female gamers' faces were even faintly pale, and they only recovered when they adjusted the mosaic mode.
Even though they had experienced war after war, the gamers still felt extremely uncomfortable when they saw such a bloody scene in "Elven Nation."
"Should we split up and check if there are any survivors?"
Demacia frowned and asked.
Li Mu pondered for a while and looked at Eve subconsciously. He noticed that her gaze was fixed in the distance.
Li Mu's heart skipped a beat. He followed the Goddess' gaze and saw the elf-style church in the village.
His heart skipped a beat, and he said to the other gamers,
"No, let's go to the church first."
Noticing Li Mu's obscure gaze, the other gamers nodded and followed.
At the same time, they also noticed that the Goddess was following them like an NPC in the game.
Everyone secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Although the Goddess didn't say anything, her actions had indirectly indicated that everyone's choice of route should be correct.
The church in the village wasn't far.
In less than five minutes, the gamers arrived at the door of the church courtyard.
However, when they approached, Boxed Lunchbox, who was at the front, suddenly looked serious and raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.
The gamers held their breaths. Then, they heard a faint conversation coming from the church courtyard.
It was a language that they didn't understand, and the voice was a little shrill.
When the gamers approached carefully and looked into the courtyard, they finally saw what was talking about.
There were seven or eight humanoid monsters with fish scales on their bodies. Their heads were like fish, and they were tall and strong. Their strength was around the lower to upper Silver level.
Beside the humanoid monsters, there were some metal weapons. The shape of the weapons made the gamers unable to help but compare them with the wounds on the villagers' bodies.
In an instant, the gamers realized that the village was massacred by something.
The monsters were sitting around the bonfire and roasting something.
When Feng Lin saw clearly what was roasting on the bonfire, he suddenly felt nauseous.
That … was a baby still connected to the umbilical cord!
On the ground not far away, a priest-like figure was lying on the ground. She had half-pointed ears and a pale face.
She was a half-elf.
There was a bloody hole in her abdomen, and the blood had long been drained. Obviously, she had been dead for a long time.
Blood stained her priestly robe. The style of the robe was 90% similar to that of the Life Church before the reformation.
It was a nature priestess …
Such a thought surfaced in the minds of the players.
Then, they looked at the fish-headed monsters with a cold gaze.
"Demon God believers, Storm Fishmen."
Eve's emotionless voice echoed in the minds of the gamers.
When she saw these monsters, Eve naturally knew their name with the ability of a true god — Storm Fishmen.
These monsters looked exactly like the sea monsters that fought against the elves in the memories of the dead elves provided by Hella.
They … were Leviathan's believers.
Demon God believers …
The gamers' gazes gradually turned dangerous.
At this moment, in their eyes, these fishmen were no different from dead people.
"I'll control them first, then everyone will attack together and destroy them."
Li Mu gestured to the others.
The gamers nodded and prepared to attack.
Li Mu waved his staff and chanted softly. Then, eight vines as thick as a bowl broke out of the ground and entangled the Storm Fishmen.
The Storm Fishmen were caught off guard and were all controlled by the vines summoned by Li Mu.
Then, the gamers roared and rushed forward, brandishing their weapons and using their skills to slash at the fishmen.
This was a battle without any suspense.
The ten summoned gamers were the top players among the millions of gamers. They were all at the pinnacle of the middle Silver-level.
Even if there was one Silver-level existence among the seven or eight Storm Fishmen, it did not react in time to the ambush of the gamers and was quickly chopped into minced meat by the swarm of gamers.
However, just before it was chopped to death by the gamers, the strongest Storm Fishman struggled to raise its head and let out a long roar.
"Sh * t … it's calling for its comrades!"
Li Mu, who had activated [Nature's Whispers], had a slight change in expression.
In the next second, a commotion was heard from outside the church. Soon, more than three hundred Storm Fishmen ran out from all over the village, waving their sharp and ferocious weapons and surrounding the gamers.
Most of them were at the Silver-level, and one of them gave the gamers a terrifying aura.
That was the aura of a Gold-level professional.
Being surrounded by more than a hundred Silver-level professionals and a Gold-level professional, even if the gamers were powerful, they all became serious.
We can't win …
Such a thought flashed through their minds.
However, even so, their expressions were neither panicked nor fearful.
The gamers looked at each other and then flocked to Eve's side.
"My Goddess, there are too many enemies …"
"My Goddess, there's a Gold-level professional among these fishmen!"
"My Goddess, what should we do?"
They all said worriedly.
Their intention to ride on her coattails was obvious.
Eve was speechless.
She glanced at the gamers and then looked at the Storm Fishmen who were charging at them. Her gaze instantly sharpened.
At that moment, all the fishmen who were charging at the gamers stopped.
They realized that they could not move.
At the same time, an indescribable fear suddenly appeared in the hearts of the Storm Fishmen. That feeling … It was as if they were being stared at by some indescribable existence.
Then, Eve glanced at them indifferently. Her gaze seemed to be filled with some kind of power of the law.
Being glanced at, the Storm Fishmen froze slightly.
In the next second, under the shocked gazes of the gamers, these fishmen trembled slightly. Their bodies shattered, turning into pieces of scattered photons and slowly dissipating.
It was as if they had never appeared.
Seeing this scene, the Gold-level Storm Fishman was horrified.
It was a beautiful scene, but the hidden murderous intent, as well as the power he could not understand, made him feel terrified …
He threw down his weapon and turned to flee.
But under Eve's gaze, he only managed to escape a single step before he followed in the footsteps of the other fishmen. His body collapsed and turned into ashes …
"Damn … So … so strong … She killed him with just a glare."
"As expected of the Goddess …"
"What skill was that just now? Can we learn it? "
The gamers were envious.
Eve did not explain.
This was just some kind of application of the power of the law.
Although this avatar of hers could only exert the power of the Gold-level, with the power of the law, she could crush anyone below the Legend level.
It just took a little energy. After eliminating these fishmen, even Eve felt a little tired.
The power of a suppressed avatar was still too limited.
But no matter what, in front of the gamers, it was much more cool than attacking directly.
Sigh … This damn idol burden.
After that, Eve reached out her hand and summoned the soul of the Gold rank murloc leader. She began to read his memories ….
