Seeing the Forgotten Forest, Chu Rui's heart was touched. A place that could be classified as a dangerous area by the system was definitely not a simple place. This was a treasure trove. The key was whether you had the ability to dig out the treasures here.
Holding two daggers, Chu Rui took the lead and walked into the Forgotten Forest.
Seeing the excited Chu Rui, Yezekael and the others looked at each other helplessly and quickly followed. When they first came here, who wasn't careful, afraid that a boss would jump out and kill them? But Chu Rui didn't care at all and went straight in. Fortunately, although the atmosphere here was strange, it was still the periphery. There wasn't much danger, just some wild beasts. Although they were stronger than normal beasts, they wouldn't be able to kill them. Not to mention, the one in front was a super monster!
After walking for about ten minutes in the Forgotten Forest, they only met a monster after five hundred meters. It was so far away, no wonder they didn't hear anything outside.
This was a forest. Even if it was a bit strange, it was still a forest. The system wouldn't create any water monsters. Most of the beasts that appeared were leopards, tigers, lions, and other forest beasts. With Chu Rui, these fierce beasts were all like lambs, waiting to be slaughtered.
Under the guidance of Yezekael and the others, Chu Rui cut through all obstacles. The terrifying fighting power he showed made the three women in the team very surprised. Damn, this thief was going against the natural order.
After walking for about half an hour, Chu Rui and the others finally arrived at the territory of the Feng Hawks. It wasn't exactly a territory. There were no more than a hundred Feng Hawks here, but as flying monsters, they occupied a good place. Looking at the Feng Hawks flying in the sky, Chu Rui was speechless. Damn, it was lucky that this was an Archer profession change mission. If it was him, it would be a pain in the ass. Did he have to use Life-Risking Strike to shoot them down one by one?
Having been here several times, Yezekael and the others were familiar with the place. They started to climb a huge tree. That's right, he went up the tree. He walked straight up. That tree definitely had a diameter of more than ten meters, and it looked very strange. Its branches were low and coiled around the surrounding trees, allowing a warrior with low Agility to climb up easily.
Although the Feng Eagle was a flying monster, the system's settings were not that disgusting. Chu Rui estimated that their maximum flying altitude was only about ten meters, definitely not more than twenty meters. Perhaps the trees here were their habitat. After Chu Rui and the others climbed up the tree, they began to attack. The attack range was about seven meters. As long as he walked carefully and took one step at a time, he wouldn't attract too many Feng Hawks. It was enough to keep him alive. Chu Rui didn't know what kind of monster was under the so-called tree hole, but according to the current situation, it seemed that only close combat professions could survive. At this moment, the Feng Hawks were like gliders. They were so fast that it would be difficult for a Mage to aim at them. In this kind of terrain, there was no way to get around them. They were basically sitting ducks. The deadly chanting time might only be a short one to two seconds, but in this short period of time, it was very likely that they would be killed by the Feng Hawks' high critical hit.
If the terrain and other factors were considered, this was the most suitable place for warriors. Good defense, they could easily block the attacks of the Feng Hawks. Good attack, they weren't like knights who could only helplessly take a beating without being able to fight back. This place was a disaster for thieves like Chu Rui who relied on positioning to make a living. However, he was not an ordinary thief. His defense and health were comparable to knights, and his attack was naturally not to be underestimated. At this moment, his combat power made Yezekael blush with shame.
Walking on the thick trunk, jumping from tree to tree, this rugged tree path took Chu Rui and the others almost an hour to finish.
"Sly Hand Bro, it's here!"
After killing Feng Ying, Yezekael walked a few steps forward and pointed to a hidden hole that he could already see.
Looking at the hole in the thick trunk, Chu Rui was speechless. Who the hell did this? What a genius. If you said you made a hole in the trunk of a big tree, that would be fine. The key was that you made a hole in the thick trunk dozens of meters above the ground. Yezekael and the others were lucky to find such a place.
"Wait, you haven't been there before?"
Just as Yezekael and the others were about to enter the tree hole, Chu Rui pointed to the thick trunk that extended to the end of the cliff. With his eyesight, he saw a very large Feng Eagle guarding there. As expected, it should be the Boss.
"Of course we have!" Following Chu Rui's finger, Yezekael's face immediately showed a helpless expression. He said with some hesitation, "That's the Feng Hawk boss, it's very disgusting. Last time we took half of its health with great difficulty, but this thing was too wretched. It just stopped fighting and flew out of our attack range, releasing wind and calling for its underlings. It's very disgusting. I don't know if it's because of the attack range or something else, but it seems that it can only reach a maximum of ten meters away from the tree hole. Fortunately, that's the case. Otherwise, we would have been wiped out before we even entered the tree hole. "
Hearing Yezekael's words, Chu Rui's eyes narrowed slightly. He estimated that he was only about 30 meters away from where the BOSS was. This Feng Hawk was a level 16 monster, and even if the boss was only level 16, the warning range (the range that the boss will attack when you enter the area) may only be ten meters, but the attack range (the range that the monster can attack when you enter the battle state) should be at least thirty meters! But Yezekael said that it stopped ten meters away from the tree hole, which was a bit strange.
"You guys wait here, I'll go take a look!" Chu Rui, who couldn't hold back his curiosity, said to Yezekael and the others. Without waiting for them to speak, he used Stealth and disappeared in front of them.
Walking on the bare tree trunk, although it was thick enough to form a small path, it really felt like walking on a steel rope under a high cliff when it was tens of meters above the ground.
Thirty meters, Chu Rui's speed decreased by 80% after entering Stealth. He should be able to walk there.
Twenty meters!
Fifteen meters!
Ten meters!
Twenty seconds of the 30 seconds of Stealth had passed, and Chu Rui was still ten meters away from the Feng Hawk boss. In this area, there were no longer any branches or leaves to cover the area. Chu Rui was surrounded by Feng Hawks flying all around him, and he had already entered their nest. If he wasn't in Stealth, he would have been directly dismembered by this group of monsters.
Looking at his situation, Chu Rui gritted his teeth and continued forward. When there were still five seconds left in Stealth, he finally got within five meters of the giant Feng Eagle Boss. He could clearly see the blade-like feathers on its body, emitting a faint glow. Its huge beak was like an incomparably sharp scimitar, glinting coldly under the sunlight.
Looking at this mighty Feng Hawk boss, Chu Rui swallowed his saliva and prepared to turn back. If he had killed his way here, he might have been able to kill it. But right now, he was alone in the enemy's formation, surrounded by at least fifty to sixty Feng Hawks, plus a Feng Hawk boss. Even if he had three heads and six arms, he would still be defeated on the spot.
Just as Chu Rui was about to leave, the Feng Hawk boss suddenly flapped its wings and flew up. He was so scared that he thought he had been discovered, and wanted to run for his life. Who knew that the Feng Hawk boss might have been tired from squatting, and directly flew up to loosen its muscles.
Chu Rui, who had just recovered from his shock, determined that there was no danger and prepared to turn back. But when he turned to the side, he suddenly saw something. Under the sunlight, it emitted an incomparably bright light!
A treasure chest?
Chu Rui's eyes couldn't help but widen. His eyes released bursts of ecstasy.
In the world of Kismet, not only did various hidden quests and hidden maps exist, but there were also treasure chests in some special places. If it was a treasure chest, it was one grade lower than a treasure map. Not only was it easy to distinguish between a treasure chest and a treasure trove, but it was also very easy to distinguish which was more important. However, there were also many treasure maps that had a treasure chest as their destination. According to the information on the official website, treasure chests were usually hidden in very hidden locations, and were not easy to find. Moreover, the majority of treasure chests were guarded by powerful monsters. The stronger the monster, the more dangerous the terrain, and the more valuable the item in the treasure chest.
As for the items in the treasure chest, the official website did not have a specific description. It could be weapons, armor, jewelry, skill books, recipes, scrolls, quest items, blueprints, gold coins, or treasure maps … anything was possible. A treasure chest that could be opened by anything greatly aroused the enthusiasm of the players. On the official website, there was no lack of players complaining about how they had gone to so many places, narrowly escaping death, and yet they had not even seen a shadow of a treasure chest. After playing the game for a few days, so many players had not seen a treasure chest. It was clear how hidden this thing was.
Chu Rui completely did not think that he would actually encounter a legendary treasure chest here. This was not surprising. Ten meters in the air, there was a tree trunk that looked like a wooden bridge, surrounded by dozens of Feng Hawks, and a boss that was eyeing covetously. The chest on the stone platform on the cliff could not be taken even by a f * cking army. After all, the tree trunk was only so big, and it was on a straight branch. Any mistake would cause one to fall from above. The surroundings were filled with terrifying flying monsters. Unless one had absolute strength, it would be impossible to break through and pry open the treasure chest.
