"Do you know what kind of person little Ladar is?" Naga smiled faintly. His smile was as innocent as a child's, but in Ye Ci's ears, it sounded like an Asura that had crawled out from the depths of hell. She did not turn around, but took a deep breath. She kept telling herself to calm down, to stay calm. She must not let this super BOSS mess with her mind. Even if she had no chance of winning, Ye Ci's habit was to lose as little as possible. It would be best if she could reap some benefits before she lost. That way, she would not let herself down.
Naga did not show any dissatisfaction towards Ye Ci's indifference. He continued, "Ladar has a good appetite. It likes to eat when it's not hungry. Now that it has been released after so many years, it must have a big meal." Naga rubbed his chin and sighed innocently, "Aiya, the way Ladar eats is the cutest. I haven't seen it in so many years. I didn't expect to see it today. Elf, look at how lucky you are. Let's watch it together. I'm sure you'll like it, just like how I like it. "
Ye Ci slowly turned her head and looked at Naga with a cold gaze. Then, she slowly turned her head back and continued to watch the huge scorpion named Ladar running amok in the midst of the players. It used its legs that were covered in shiny black carapace to run across the open field. It was aimless, knocking the players around it into the air. Occasionally, a player would fly in front of it and be caught by its pincers and stuffed into its mouth.
Although she could not hear the sounds of the battle, she could already imagine the devastation of the battlefield just by looking at the scene.
"Oh right, Elf, do you know what Ladar's favorite food is?" Naga seemed to have thought of something and asked Ye Ci with a smile.
Was it a player? The so-called cannibalism? This was the most direct result, but was it really so? Sometimes, the most untrustworthy thing was one's own eyes. Since the Naga could ask such a question, Ye Ci believed that Ladar's food was not as simple as the corpses of players. She turned half of her face, her gaze as cold as the stars in the night sky. She asked calmly, "If you want to say it, then say it all at once. Do you have to find someone to talk to before you can continue?"
Naga rubbed his nose awkwardly. However, he did not look angry at all. It seemed like Naga's mood was not affected by Ye Ci's rejection. He shook his head and sighed, "Ai, ai ai, I suddenly feel that Dau 'er is still the cutest. At least he would reply when I talk to him. Even if it's an argument, even if it's anger, at least he would respond. Why have all the elves become like you after so many years? It's so boring. "
Ye Ci wanted to roll her eyes. Is this guy really the Demon King Naga that all players and NPCs fear? Why do I feel that this guy is as shameless as Fleeting Time? He's just a scoundrel. How annoying. She had always been a time-saver. One was one, two was two. If there was something she wanted to say, she could just say it directly. Beating around the bush like this was really annoying.
Naga noticed that Ye Ci's face was twitching, and he spoke with an even more annoying tone, "Ladar does not eat humans. It loves to drain a person's strength. Oh right, I'm sure you don't understand. Let me put it another way. Ladar's favorite thing is the experience that you adventurers call the most delicious thing in the world."
Ye Ci felt a chill run down her spine when she heard Naga's words. She had seen this type of monster before. In Fate, most monsters had different attack types, such as Whirlpool, Trap, and Lightning. But these types of monsters were nothing as they were just attacking methods. But there was one type of monster that was the most terrifying. It had the ability to absorb experience. This type of monster was not very strong, but players would lose a large amount of experience points if they were killed by it. The amount of experience points lost was far more than the amount of experience points lost to other monsters.
Since Ladar was also a monster with such attributes, then according to its level and strength, the Experience Points it could absorb would be much higher than other monsters of the same type. Ladar was unstoppable against the players who were unable to penetrate its defense. It did not even care if the players were attacking it. It simply used its pincers to pick up players and stuff them into its mouth. This was a true one-sided massacre.
Ye Ci looked further into the distance. She wanted to know who was controlling this gigantic monster. She wanted to know if there was a chance that the monster would betray them. But after a while, her heart sank. Ladar was not only charging forward bravely, it also showed no signs of turning back. It was clear that the main Summoner was a powerful player. His bravery and experience were also plentiful. If Ladar had not betrayed them, Up Everyday, the Tang dynasty, Werewolves and World Conqueror would have been the ones to die.
It wouldn't be a big deal if they only lost a level and a piece of equipment. However, Ladar was a monster that absorbed EXP. Even though the EXP it absorbed was random, it would definitely be worse than losing a level. If it encountered a low-level player, it could easily cause the player to lose more than 10 levels in one bite. Moreover, Ladar was slaughtering players at an alarming rate. If it was allowed to continue its rampage, the guild rankings of the Eastern Continent would be rewritten after this battle.
The hope that Up Everyday had brought back with great difficulty would be completely shattered. And Up Everyday would be utterly crushed. There would be no chance for them to make a comeback. Even though she would only lose a level if she holed herself up here, it was still incomparable to the destruction of Up Everyday's entire guild.
The strength of a single person was nothing. Only the strength of an entire team was the true strength of a single player.
In an instant, Ye Ci recalled the last night of her past life. The [Glory] staff member who spoke to her humbly with a mocking smile, "I'm sorry, Miss Ye. We don't accept players without a team."
Fate was a strange thing. It would always place the most difficult choice in front of you to test your wits. Last time, she had unfortunately made the wrong choice. This time, she was lucky enough to have another chance. So, she would not make the wrong choice. No matter what price she had to pay, she would not make the wrong choice this time.
Ye Ci took a deep breath and turned around to look at Naga. Her eyes were bright, and her expression was resolute. She spoke to Naga with a firm smile, "Naga, tell me, what do you need my help with?"
Naga's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. A brilliant smile blossomed on his face, like the most beautiful flower in the world. Just by looking at his face, who would be able to associate him with the number one Demon King of Fate? He smiled and said, "Hm? You seem to be certain that I'll ask for your help. "
"Naga, I don't have that much time. I have companions that I need to save, and I have more important things to do." She took a deep breath and expressed her thoughts clearly, "I believe that you brought me here because I can be of some use to you. So, please help me stop Ladar and make sure that the victory of this battle belongs to me. And I will definitely do what you need me to do."
"How interesting." Naga tilted his head and looked at Ye Ci. In the blink of an eye, he floated away. A chair appeared behind him and he sat down. He looked at Ye Ci and smiled, "It seems that Dau 'er is an anomaly. He's not as interesting as you." He chuckled, "So, you're willing to be used by me?"
"Yes." Ye Ci nodded.
"That's strange. I always thought that no one would be willing to be used by others."
"If a person has no value, then what's the point of using them?" Ye Ci snorted. Even though she looked calm on the surface, her heart was burning with anxiety. She did not even dare to turn around to watch the battle. Naga was an overly intelligent NPC. I believe that this demon king would not want others to order it around. Therefore, I can only urge it once. I can't urge it a second time.
"Hmm. That's interesting." Naga nodded and squinted his eyes. His golden hair was suddenly blown by the wind. It was as soft as a willow branch in the spring breeze. He was still smiling as if he had become a beautiful painting. At this moment, a ray of light seemed to pass through his eyes. It was dazzling to the eyes. His eyes were still calm. There was nothing left in them, "Very well. Since you've put it that way, I'll be sorry if I don't help you." He waved his hand and a basin of black water appeared in front of Ye Ci. "Wash your hands."
Ye Ci looked at Naga suspiciously. However, Naga was still smiling. She could not tell what it was trying to do. Ye Ci had no choice but to withdraw her thoughts, and dipped her hands into the pitch-black water, which made her skin look even paler. After a moment, she pulled her hands out of the water. There was not a single drop of water on her fingers. She raised her hands and looked at them. Suddenly, her gaze sharpened. He only saw that the unremarkable mysterious ring on his right middle finger had actually changed its appearance.
It had completely lost its form and turned into a ring of incorporeal substance, circling around her finger. As long as she moved her finger, the ring would instantly disappear like mist being blown away. However, when her hand stopped moving, the black mist would once again circle around her finger.
Ye Ci began to feel uneasy. She looked at the ring and checked its attributes without hesitation. Although she already knew that the ring's attributes would change in the long run, when she saw the ring's attributes, she couldn't help but tremble a little.
Naga's Ring:
Divine Artifact
All Attributes + 300
Additional "Invisibility" skill. Duration: 1 minute. Cooldown: 3 minutes.
Additional "Feather Drop" skill.
Additional "Dark Summoning" skill. Duration: 1 hour. Cooldown: 24 hours. Requires 10,000 souls.
Additional "Soul Absorption" passive skill.
Additional "Devil's Agent" passive skill.
There were only a few simple words on the ring. Ye Ci understood only the Invisibility and Feather Drop skills. She did not understand the other three skills at all. Actually, from the looks of it, it was a bit of an exaggeration to call this ring a Divine Artifact. Although it was very overbearing to add 300 to all attributes, it didn't have any other combat attributes other than attribute points. It only had some unclear skills.
However, this item was a divine artifact and it was called Naga's Ring. It seemed like it had a lot to do with Naga. Then, these things would definitely have unexpected uses. Ye Ci did not have much time to think about these questions. The battle outside was still raging. She could not wait to go out and help.
Naga smiled at Ye Ci, "I know you're anxious. Go. We'll meet again when you win this battle. I'll tell you what I need you to do then." Ye Ci's vision cleared up as soon as the words left his mouth. There was still a dialog box in front of her, asking her to choose the method of resurrection. Ye Ci did not hesitate and chose to resurrect a Priest. She immediately got up from the ground and almost bumped into him.
Fleeting Time was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief after seeing her resurrection. But what happened just now? Ye Ci pulled him back just as he was about to ask, "I know what you're going to ask, but there's no time to explain. Golden Era has already summoned their summoned creature. We have to think of a way to deal with it."
Fleeting Time let out a sigh of relief. It was apparent that he was aware of the matter. "Alright. What do you have in mind? It sounds like a terrible battle. I wonder how many casualties there are."
Ye Ci lowered her head and stared at the ring on her finger, "I don't know either." If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
