My players are grinding in the apocalypse

Outside Zhenhun City.

The twisted ethereal energy expanded, and the 12 humans possessed by ethereal spirits no longer pretended to be, revealing their true colors. Each of them was entangled with a looming ethereal spirit body.

They themselves showed pained expressions and seemed to have been greatly tortured.

Xigou sighed: "They are not dead yet. Send them away, don't suffer."

"It's you who deserve to die! Feel the fear from your soul!"

The 12 ethereal spirits entwined with cyan virtual energy have expanded to a huge size, and wisps of cyan smoke are wandering in the air, as if forming some kind of realm-like aura.

[You are affected by the 'Horror Distortion' debuff, with a virtual resistance of -25%, 100 virtual damage per second, defense ability of -60, attack ability of -60, and blurred vision. 】

All players have received a prompt. They have all received this range of skills and cannot avoid it at all.

"This debuff skill is quite powerful. It reduces resistance, sustains damage, and reduces basic attributes."

[Attack ability] represents your own dynamic vision and capture ability, and is related to the hit rate and critical hit rate of your moves.

[Defense ability] is your sixth sense reaction ability, which is related to whether you can sense danger and avoid it in time.

If both are weakened at the same time, for players, the overall response will become slower, and the field of vision will be blurred, which will still have a great impact on players.

Demon Fox: "Open the buff!"

Lao Bai: "[Battle Flag]! [War Call] and [Squad Tactics]!"

He opened 2 halos at the same time,

The golden battle flag and the same shining golden command power directly covered all the players and summons, shrouded in three layers of golden aura, and the intensity of the aura directly increased!

The full-level [Battle Flag] increases [Attack Ability] by 95 and [Life Recovery Rate per Second] by 50 points, directly eliminating half of the debuff effect.

[War Call] and the expanded skill [Squad Tactics] are the signature skills of soldiers, and are required skills for all army leaders, and their effects are even more outstanding!

At full level, it increases [Attack Ability] and [Defense Ability] by 86, strengthens its own armor, and strengthens its [All Damage] by 85% and [All Speed] by 14%.

UI!

Any profession can enjoy the bonus of these two god-level buffs of soldiers!

Lao Bai's aura directly blocked the entirety of Void Spirit's [Twisted Terror] debuff, leaving only some virtual damage, which was nothing to worry about.

And then, more buffs were instantly activated by players.

Lintang: "[Fire Possessed]!"

The power of fire envelopes all players and summons, and everyone has high fire base damage and bonuses.

Boring person, Wei Kunchen: "Sacrifice!"

The two of them were standing closest to the front and the fleshiest. After turning on the skills, layers of flame waves formed around their bodies, burning everything around them!

With the full level [Fire Possession] up to 100% fire damage bonus, the damage of the two people's [Sacrifice] skill is directly doubled!

"rush!"

The two of them dived directly into the pile of ethereal spirits to prevent the sacrifice's indiscriminate attacks from inadvertently injuring their teammates.

Anyway, they are very tough, and Xu Ling will not be able to kill them for a while.

Huhuhu~

The rolling flames grilled the ethereal spirits, and black smoke erupted from their bodies. The illusory energy in the surrounding air was also burned and thinned.

Bored person: "Huh? It seems that the fire attribute is more restrained against ethereal spirits?"

The thin dog looked at the flames igniting on the weapon and smiled.

"That would be great! Eat my acid-fire mixed-injury knife technique!"

"Blast!"

This is a single-target buff skill, very powerful!

The speed and attack of the thin dog are greatly increased.

He was not afraid of the damage from the sacrifice, and charged directly towards the leader of the group, Gao Shouben, the virtual spirit.

As the two swords were waved, the ghost child in Gao Shou's body screamed frequently.

Polar Bear: "Tsk, hurry up! The thin dog is too hasty! Look at my aura - [Death Armor]!"

Lao Ao: "Xi Gou Ju, pick me up a [Rock Armor]!"

A ray of green light shot into Xigou's body, and the stones under his feet seemed to be given life. They scrambled to climb up Xigou's feet, forming a hard stone armor. Although the effect of resisting aberration attacks was poor, [Rock Armor]'s extended skill [Phantom Stone Shield] can form an energy shield to protect his hand.

As the auras of the peak team are opened one by one, the overall combat effectiveness is greatly improved!

If their combat power is 10 before opening, then after multiple people are stacked, the combat power can be increased to more than 30!

Directly triple the combat power!

Ethereal originally thought that the players' strength was only as strong as what they sensed, but after the halo was turned on, their combat power skyrocketed to a level that they couldn't understand at all!

boom!

The cyan energy wrapped around Gao Shouben's hands suddenly surged, forming two huge ghost claws, and slapped the thin dog away.

The thin dog broke two trees in the air before stopping. Stones fell to the ground, but his body was not seriously injured, and even the [Death Armor] was not broken.

But Xigou felt his head explode with a buzzing sound, and a large number of chaotic and illogical pictures passed before his eyes.

"Touch of life!"

Lao Ao, who was always paying attention to the battlefield, took action, and a burst of green energy came to help Xigou recover, and formed a green energy shield, forcing a cloud of cyan smoke out of his body.

"Xigou, wake up!"

Xigou stood up suddenly, touched his body and found no injuries, but his vigilance was immediately heightened!

"I just fell into an illusion! Be careful of their attacks, they will cause mental harm!"

At the same time, Boring Man and Wei Kunchen, who had the most damage resistance, had already put on pain masks, sometimes awake and sometimes lost, barely operating.

These ethereal spirits are completely different from the monsters they usually encounter!

The attack damage will not take effect immediately, but it will make people continue to enter the illusion, which is very uncomfortable!

When you are completely lost, it means you are dead, or you have become a puppet of the ethereal spirit.

Lao Bai: "Let me come! As long as I spin fast enough, no one can touch me!"

He took out three small axes from his back and pressed the fiery red beads inlaid on them.

"[Magic Fire Stone] turns on! Burn my weapon!"

The three weapons ignited waves of fire at the same time, and then he threw them towards the virtual spirit.

"[Swivel Weapon]!"

He has a sword in one hand and a shield in the other, and opens his arms.

"[Sacrifice]!"

"【Whirlwind】!"

He turned into a whirlwind and rushed into the virtual spirits. The 3-meter flaming wind blew the bodies of the virtual spirits with a sizzling sound, and a large amount of black smoke came out!

The virtual spirit wanted to attack it, but the energy was burned into smoke by the high-frequency flame whirlwind as soon as it got close!

The three weapons rotated together with Lao Bai, beating the virtual spirits until they were all on fire. They were severely suppressed and their health volume dropped rapidly!

The blind-angle attack and extremely high fire damage made it impossible for Void Spirit's aura to get close to Lao Bai!

Lao Bai's human blade storm ran rampant among the 12 ethereal spirits, just like the unparalleled God of War!

Boring Man and Wei Kunchen, who were also fighting hand to hand next to Xu Ling, were slapped twice by Lao Bai when they passed by.

The crows in the sky looked for opportunities to project electric balls one after another, causing the virtual spirits to twitch and distort their faces.

The battlefield that was originally full of aetherial energy was suddenly filled with all kinds of light. The 12 ethereal spirits continued to release aetherial attacks, but the pinnacle team resisted with all their might!

In less than 3 minutes, 12 ethereal spirits were killed one after another, and the green ethereal spirit was beaten to pieces.

[Work together to kill the ‘possessed ghost’, experience +5000! 】*12

Lao Ao, who was taking a sip of milk from behind, took out a new glass bottle again.

"Collection Technique!"

A gust of breeze blew out of his palm, collecting all the red powder falling in the air into the bottle.

"Done, a total of 6 copies of [Red Spirit Powder] have been collected, with an average of 2 virtual spirits exploding one portion."

The battle ends here, and the players are fighting easily.

After all, all 10 of them are level 49, and they are still a peak team with extremely good equipment. 12 third-level ethereal spirits are no match for them.

Lintang curled his lips and put down his two guns: "That's it? They all fell down before I even exerted my strength?"

Demon Fox: "Well, Xu Ling's team combat ability is very average. He doesn't have decent combination skills. He is much worse than us. It's normal to take it easy."

Lintang was so bored that he said: "Okay, I thought we could have a tough battle, but I looked forward to it in vain, old Bai! Can you please stop swinging from side to side when you turn around in the future? I can't even shoot."

Lao Bai, who had just stopped spinning, touched his head and said, "Isn't this because he wants to get even the rain and dew?"

At this time, Xigou squatted in the center of the battlefield, looking at the 12 people lying on the ground, with fatal wounds all over their bodies, and green blood flowing out of their bodies.

The thin dog shouted: "Old Ao, try to save him!"

"good!"

"[Dregg's Blood]!"

A ball of green light was inspired from Lao Ao's staff, covering the 12 dying soldiers like water waves, but only a very small amount of health was restored.

Moreover, the restored health value is rapidly declining.

But this bit of treatment allowed 12 people to have a brief period of wakefulness. At this moment, their bodies once again exploded with unimaginable power, and their consciousness returned to its original position.

Gao Shouben opened his eyes, his face flushed, and he let out a breath.

"Huh~ Is this a mysterious inheritance? I feel much better."

Xigou pulled him up: "How are you? Can you hold on? I'll take you back to Zhenhun City for treatment. The Three Witches Temple should be able to save your lives."

Gao Shouben sat up on his own, as if the hideous wounds all over his body didn't exist. He glanced at his body and shook his head.

"It's too late. The virtual spirit has been in the body for too long, and the blood has been contaminated. The adrenaline that the body can mobilize has reached its limit. I still have about 30 seconds."

Lao Ao: "[Touch of Life]!"

Another green light fell on Gao Shouben, but it barely recovered.

"It's no longer possible. His upper limit of health is rapidly declining and will be cleared to zero soon. No amount of treatment can save him."

The upper limit of life is gone, and no treatment skills will work.

This means they have reached the end.

Gao Shouben stood up as if nothing had happened. His body was in pieces, but he still stood upright.

"While I was possessed by a virtual spirit, I actually had consciousness all the time. This kind of possessed spirit could not let me die if it wanted to mobilize my memory. I am very happy that it taught you two of my unique skills. Although I don't know why you You learn so quickly. But it’s good if you can leave it to humans.”

He spoke quickly, afraid that he wouldn't be able to finish the sentence.

The thin dog sighed.

"Thank you for your skills. Tell me your last wish and we will find a way to fulfill it."

At this time, 12 people stood up one after another, looked at each other's broken bodies, and suddenly laughed.

"Haha, Lao Liu, I usually tell you that you are heartless every day, how come you are really lost?"

"Brother Tao, your bones are really suffering from old sins. They are all broken into spider webs."

"Tch, stop pulling. Your neck is just flesh and skin. Die quickly, or I will be scared to death by you first!"

"Oh, I planned to confess my love to my sister in the infirmary when I get the reward after this mission is over. It's a pity. She will suffer a big loss if I die!"

After teasing each other for a few words, they fell silent collectively and looked in the direction of the Human Center City.

"Bury our ashes in human cities"

"Then...live!"

They closed their eyes with reluctance.

Bang bang bang~

12 bodies fell.

The players were silent for a moment, feeling as if there was sand in their eyes.

Lintang: "This game just likes to mess with you suddenly. Can't you just play it like a brush game? You have to be careless! Planning should be damned!"

Lao Ao: "Maybe this is the sense of reality and immersion that the planner is pursuing."

Xigou stood up with a firm gaze: "We must conquer the Eastern battlefield! Kill the Void Spirit! Even in the game, humans should not be played by such monsters!"

The polar bear directed the skeleton to carry 12 broken corpses onto the summoned object.

"Take them back, let the fallen leaves return to their roots."

The pinnacle team ended their day's exploration and returned to Soul Town City.

Today they got a lot of information, the most important of which is that the situation on the Eastern battlefield is very tense!

Against special creatures like the Void Spirit, humans can only defend passively and have poor ability to take the initiative, because once the Void Spirit catches a flaw, teammates will become untrustworthy.

You can be killed by the person you trust most at any time.

And the death was miserable!

You will even watch your body being played with by the virtual spirit and killing the comrades you care about most one by one. This is a great torture.

It would be better to be eaten directly to death by insects.

After the pinnacle team cremated 12 people, they gathered in front of the only blacksmith shop in Zhenhun City, but the blacksmith had already closed the shop to pray.

It's already dark, and the power of the virtual spirit has strengthened.

Xigou glanced at the fire-gold protective shield covering the Soul Soul City, which was being attacked by various ethereal spirits.

"I can only wait until it goes online tomorrow to make ghost-killing weapons."

"We can't do anything now. Let's go to the Temple of the Three Witches and log off if we don't have any tasks."

The demon fox said thoughtfully: "Well, it just so happens that I also have a few questions to ask Nangong Divine Envoy."

The players went to the Temple of the Three Witches and met the Nangong Divine Envoy who had just finished praying.

"Nangong Divine Envoy, I have discovered many problems today. Can I talk to you about them?"

"Well, you say."

The demon fox pointed at the large Eastern battlefield map of the Three Witches Temple and asked: "We humans can only defend in these cities. If we go out, we will encounter great threats, right?"

"That's right, even I can't guarantee that I can come back every time I go out."

The demon fox pointed at the gaps between the various strongholds on the Eastern battlefield and said, "Then why don't the virtual spirits just bypass our cities and go straight to our human hinterland?"
