Tsubasa Sakuratsuka continued to pick through the fallen leaves as he said to Unsworn Sword, "If it's an expert, the traps wouldn't be so simple. The ones hidden under the leaves might just be to attract our attention. Perhaps there's an even more powerful trap hidden deeper in the ground. "
"An even more powerful trap? What is that?" Unsworn Sword asked anxiously.
"A hunting trap that lasts longer," Tsubasa Sakuratsuka replied. Unsworn Sword really wanted to slap this guy to death.
"Everyone, watch your step!" Unsworn Sword turned around to remind everyone. However, this didn't need to be said. Ever since the first person stepped into the trap and screamed, everyone had long since started paying attention to their feet.
"Can we still move forward?" Unsworn Sword asked Tsubasa Sakuratsuka.
"The trap itself isn't harmful," Tsubasa Sakuratsuka replied. Sakura Tsutomo 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 currently the main strategy used in conjunction with traps. If we recklessly move forward without understanding the situation, no matter how many people there are, we will only be eaten away. "
"Can't we find all the traps?" Unsworn Sword looked at the wooden stick in Tsubasa Sakuratsuka's hand.
"In theory, yes. But don't forget, traps are dead, but people are alive. A true trap expert won't just lay down traps and wait for the rabbit to come. When you step into a trap, the trap will be restricting you; when you don't, it will be a kind of restraint. While you're bitterly searching for 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. Tsubasa Sakuratsuka was really too long-winded. Even if he didn't really understand traps, he was still able to understand the principles behind them.
"That's why I said that 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 out of their trap? "Tsubasa Sakuratsuka's voice became deeper as he spoke. After he finished speaking, he looked around with a profound gaze. There was only a slight rustling of leaves in the forest. Coupled with Tsubasa Sakuratsuka's tone, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill. They looked around, searching for the profound question of how many people there were.
"Let's stop advancing for now. Call the Guild Leaders over and discuss our countermeasures," Unsworn Sword announced.
At this moment, at the end of the line, all the players were waiting for news from the front, chatting in twos and threes. Suddenly, Gu Fei turned around and shouted, "Someone's here!"
"Who is it?" It wasn't just the Childe Elite Group. Gu Fei's voice had also been heard by Unsworn Sword, who was at the forefront of the Dalian team.
Gu Fei looked at the forest behind them warily. "Someone was there just now."
"Is it a person, or an NPC?" Brother You said.
"It's a person. An NPC wouldn't have a murderous aura," Gu Fei said.
Murderous aura … Everyone looked at Gu Fei with a strange expression.
"I'll go take a look!" Gu Fei pulled out his sword and carefully walked in the direction of the murderous aura. The feeling just now was fleeting. Based on his experience, the other party should have noticed Gu Fei in that instant. Gu Fei couldn't point out the specific direction, but he was sure that there was someone there!
"I'll go with you." Sword Demon also pulled out his dagger and entered Stealth. He followed beside Gu Fei and carefully walked in that direction. Behind them, everyone was watching. Not long after, Unsworn Sword and the others, who were at the front of the line, came over 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 a player or an NPC? "Reflection of Years asked.
Everyone's expression was strange. The Han Clan's young master sighed and said, "Damn it, can't the question be more creative?"
Reflection of Years' expression was unhappy. Han Family Young Master hurriedly smiled at him. "Sorry, I'm not targeting you." Reflection of Years' expression softened, but Han Family Young Master added, "It's targeting everyone, including you." Everyone, including Reflection of Years, 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 quickly jump. At the same time, the Dark Streak Sword in his right hand slashed down. With a ding, there seemed to be a flash of light at Gu Fei's feet. Then they saw Gu Fei land steadily and say in a low voice, "There's a trap."
Tsubasa Sakuratsuka hurriedly ran over and saw that there was an activated trap at Gu Fei's feet. It was even more exquisite than what they had seen at the front of the line. There was even a faint flash of metal. Under normal circumstances, two teeth that would normally clamp a person's feet were tightly clenched together, making people shudder.
Sword Demon, who was on the side, came out of Stealth. Gu Fei's "be careful" was, of course, for him to hear. At this time, Gu Fei also had lingering fears. "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. Just now, it was clear that Gu Fei had stepped into the trap and immediately retracted his feet to dodge it. However, this trap could actually jump from the ground and chase after him for a short period of time. So, Gu Fei's longsword instantly slashed down and cut down the trap that had jumped up. It was obvious who was the sick one here!
"Brother Zui, you're too ridiculous. You can even dodge that …" Even Tsubasa Sakuratsuka was not in the mood to study his favorite trap for a moment.
Gu Fei didn't answer him. He continued to look into the depths of the forest and said, "I'm afraid there are more."
At this time, Unsworn Sword and the others had already come over. The first thing Tsubasa Sakuratsuka said was, "Have you started the timer?"
"What timer?"
"Duh, the trap time!" Tsubasa Sakuratsuka said.
"Didn't you miss?"
"Even if you missed, you still activated it! Once activated, the trap will only disappear after the time limit is up. You can still use the timer. You guys should really study up on your trap knowledge! "Tsubasa Sakuratsuka's face was full of resentment.
The Guild Leader of Reigning The Four Seas, Unsworn Sword, was speechless. However, he also noticed a problem. This time, everyone had clearly arrived at the same time and saw the trap being activated. Why did this brat still blame them when he didn't know the timer? Wasn't he just using it as a pretext? How despicable. Unsworn Sword thought to himself.
"This trap is even stronger than the one before." Tsubasa Sakuratsuka said, "And according to Brother Zui, it can even bounce up. This should be the effect of the higher the mastery of the skill. This means that its bounce is even more terrifying."
"What about your trap? What's the speed of your trap?" Unsworn Sword suddenly asked.
Tsubasa Sakuratsuka smiled bitterly, "Mine isn't even as good as the one before. I dropped a level when I was Level 40." Below Level 40, a player would learn a new skill every six levels. For example, Level 12, Level 18, and so on. With the addition of Level 40, these levels were known as skill levels. Normally, 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 a player reached the skill level, they would have to learn the skill again and practice it again. "Dropping skill level" was a more terrifying threat to the players than dropping a level.
"It seems that we've been surrounded." Tsubasa Sakuratsuka crouched down and looked at the trap for a while, 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 walked past. It was obvious that the trap had only been placed after they had walked past it. Perhaps the moment that Gu Fei noticed it, it was also the moment that the other party had secretly placed 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?" Reflection of Years was still struggling with this question.
"It's a player." Gu Fei answered him with certainty.
"How do you know?" Someone had told him, but he still needed more accurate evidence, especially when the person who spoke was Gu Fei.
Gu Fei shrugged. "I saw it." It was better not to mention the murderous aura. If he said too much, these players would act like the students in his school and treat Gu Fei, who claimed to know martial arts, as a problem …
"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 … "While Reflection of Years was talking, Gu Fei teleported and disappeared.
"What do we do?" The three core members of Reigning the Four Seas gathered together again, along with the leaders of the various mercenary groups.
"The ones that were sent to search around have also found the trap. We are now surrounded by a large trap formation." Tsubasa Sakuratsuka explained the situation. His mercenary group had always been in charge of the trap exploration work. Sworn Sword was very pleased that they had hired this mercenary group that was widely known to be very wretched. It was finally of great use.
"Can't we get rid of all the traps?" someone asked.
"No!" Sworn Sword stopped Tsubasa Sakuratsuka in time and started his long 'trap theory'.
"Why?" But the person who asked this question wanted to get to the bottom of it, so Tsubasa Sakuratsuka went on with another long speech.
Sword of No Oath forced himself to hold back. His eyes swept across the crowd, wanting to say a few words to emphasize the seriousness of the current situation. But after looking around, he suddenly had a little doubt. After looking around again, he could confirm his doubt. He looked at Reflection of Years and asked, "Where's Silvermoon?"
This was a meeting between the core members of Reigning the Four Seas and the mercenary group leaders. All the leaders had arrived, but Silvermoon was nowhere to be seen.
Reflection of Years had only called out to the group leader once, and it was only now that he realized 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!" Sworn Sword muttered, preparing to privately contact Silvermoon.
"He left," someone suddenly said.
