The Age of Machines

Chapter 975 Demonized State

Monsters will appear in the inner area of ​​​​the orc tribe?
Before their camp was closer to the city gate, Wei Shengmo would only catch a monster.And this place is in the depths of the orc tribe, how did this monster get in?
Yi Lianna shook her head in Hong Lian's embrace, and replied with a trembling voice: "I... I don't know. I was going to find Brother Baal, and then a monster suddenly jumped out from there, grabbed my hair and attacked me. "

Elena pointed somewhere behind the table.

Beixi walked across the table to the corner of the thatched cottage and found a hole.Beixi squatted down and took a closer look. This hole appeared to be dug by the same monster as the previous room where the monster was held.Because there are black hairs on the edges of the two holes, Beixi had noticed it before, but he didn't say it specifically.After all, everyone knew that it was the hair left by monsters.

So the monster hasn't left yet?
In this way, it is not surprising that monsters appear here.The monsters that dig holes can move underground, so it is impossible for anyone to find them.Their mechanic's detection of mechanical beasts has no effect now, and Beixi is still somewhat worried that there are many such monsters under the place where they are standing now.If they penetrate many passages and lead directly to the central city of the monster, then the army of the monster can also pass through the underground passage and be caught off guard.

But now that he thought about it carefully, Beixi felt something was wrong.If there are many such monsters among the monsters, they should have already started making plans when the orc prophet's protective shield was broken.

The monsters are very smart, and Beixi doesn't think they can't think of this way.As long as the outside army is suppressed, and then the ground is opened up, a road is opened, and the central city is attacked, and the orc tribe is wiped out.

why?
Strange to say.

The prophet predicted that today is the end, which means that the orc tribe will disappear today.However, people from the management of the game came out to intervene and gave Liu Xin the task, just to prevent the orc tribe from being wiped out.

Beixi stared at the burrow.

Is the process too rushed?
Beixi felt that it was only for this reason that [GM] would come out and arrange tasks.

Indeed, if the orc tribe is wiped out, things will be troublesome later on.If they are all wiped out and the monsters lead them, there will be no competitive competitions in the future, and the dragon will not come.

"Beixi, did you find anything?"

Beixi looked at the two of them, "The monster dug a tunnel underground."

The expressions of the two changed upon hearing this.

Elena's face was full of panic, "How could it be? There is such a monster? Isn't it even the inner area is not safe anymore?"

Guren also frowned.

"We have to hurry up and tell other people to be careful."

"Ah."

Honglian helped Elena up, and the two held hands and were about to leave, but Beixi had no choice but to stop her.

NPCs are very active, acting with their own will, as if they are alive.The two of them don't care about Beixi, and they don't care about the task. If Beixi doesn't mention it, it is estimated that this task will have to be put on hold, or even forgotten.

"Wait a mininute!"

Beixi speeded up, and soon stopped in front of the two of them, with his arms outstretched.

The two were forced to stop and looked at Beixi full of doubts.

"Listen to me."

The favorability between Honglian and her is still at the level where you can listen to her words, and the favorability between Yi Lianna and Beixi is now at 120.This is because Beixi came in and saved her life just now.

The two showed no refusal or impatience.

Seeing this, Bei Xi felt relieved, put down his hands and said, "Now the orc tribe is full of panic. The soldiers outside are still fighting with blood, while the people in the safe area are still worried about whether monsters will break in and kill them." Death. If you say it casually, it will only cause more panic. And this monster can make holes. It can easily enter the orc tribe, which makes the people lose confidence in the orc warriors fighting outside."

After all, a group of people are desperately resisting monsters outside, but there are still monsters who can freely come and go in the orc tribe.Once this disappearance spreads out, it will definitely cause internal chaos and lower the morale of the orcs.Things will get worse.

Honglian was slightly stunned, "I... I didn't think of it. Then what should we do?"

Beixi looked at Elena, she was trembling slightly now, and her face was not good.It doesn't look like she's afraid of anything, the monster attacked her just now, did it cause a wound?
"Elena doesn't look well."

As soon as Beixi's words came out, Hong Lian quickly looked at Yi Lianna, staring at her for a few seconds, "Yi Lianna, you are not afraid, but injured, right?"

With her pale face and trembling body, Guren thought she hadn't come out of the haze of being attacked by monsters.Never thought of anything more serious.

Elena gritted her teeth, "I'm fine."

Guren didn't believe it, she pulled Elena to prevent her from running away, looked up and down, but found no damage to the clothes.There were no signs of injury to other parts.

"Elena, what's wrong with you?"

"I'm fine. Honglian, hurry up and tell the elders, let them be on guard."

"But..." Honglian didn't give up, and then looked to Beixi for help.

Bei Xi stepped forward, "Give it to me, Yi Lianna. Although this matter cannot be disclosed to the public or spread, the elders and His Highness Leizi must know that they should handle it correctly. It is important, you first Take the news back. Elena gives it to me."

Honglian looked at Elena, and she also smiled, "Beixi is right, you go and come back quickly."

"it is good!"

"Wait a minute." Beixi called Honglian.

Honglian paused and looked back at Beixi.

"Can you go to the camp and find a priest named Wan Shan? I need her to help."

"Priest?" Honglian seemed to understand something, with a firm expression on her face. "I'll be back soon, wait for me Elena."

Watching Honglian disappear.

Beixi looked back, at this moment Yi Lianna seemed to be unable to hold on any longer, and she was about to fall down as soon as her body softened.Beixi helped her up in time so that she didn't fall down completely. She leaned on Beixi's shoulder and said softly, "I'm sorry."

Beixi's gaze fell on her right hand, and she stretched out her hand to slightly open the sleeve. Under the wide sleeve, there was indeed a scratch that was bright red and pitch black.

magic.

The dark magic energy, if absorbed too much, can turn people into monsters, and it can directly enter the body through the wound, and start to infiltrate the body.Until the fresh life completely becomes a member of darkness.

"I didn't expect a monster to appear."

Yi Lianna was completely taken aback and forgot to resist for a moment. When she came back to her senses, there was already a wound on her wrist.The monster seemed very interested in her blood.

By the time they resisted, Beixi and the others had already arrived.

"Will I be demonized? Become an ugly dark creature like a monster?"

"The resistance of the orcs is much stronger than that of us humans."

Elena smiled lightly, she didn't seem to be very worried about her own life or death. "My body is actually very weak. I am not a pure cat bloodline. My mother is human..."

Beixi was taken aback.

Mixed-race orcs don't seem to have a high status in the orc clan.

"When I was born, I was half a head smaller than other orc babies. My mother also passed away because of me. I inherited my mother's frailty and sickness... If it wasn't for Red Lotus and the Prophet, I wouldn't have lived that long .”

For a moment, Beixi didn't know what to say to comfort her.

Elena looked at it very openly, "My body probably won't be able to resist the dark power for a long time. If I become demonized, please kill me."

She sat halfway, holding Beixi's hand with both hands, and said very sincerely.

"I don't want to become a monster, and I don't want to hurt other people."

"You will not."

It was only then that Beixi remembered that she still had holy water with her.

Quickly took it out, "I don't know how much this will work."

But thinking about the wounds caused by junior monsters, it seems that there is no need to pull the fan over.

Bei Xi handed it to Elena, "Drink it."

"This is?"

"The spring water of the holy spring can purify the darkness."

Elena took it and looked at Beixi gratefully. "Thank you." He raised his head and drank.

A few seconds later, Beixi asked her, "How do you feel?"

"Well, it's much better." Elena smiled brightly, her slightly pale face made her look so weak.

Bei Xi pulled back her sleeves, her eyes touched the unhealed wound, and her eyes began to become weird.

"No effect?"

Elena smiled: "I feel better than before."

Of course she didn't understand.

Holy water purifies the darkness, and can dispel the devilish energy carried by ordinary primary monsters directly.That's not a very high-level monster, why doesn't this wound even have a tendency to heal?
Bei Xi could only comfort him: "It's good that you feel better. I'll help you to rest in the house. When my friend comes, the wound will heal completely."

"it is good."

Bring Elena into the house.

Beixi asked her to rest for a while, and began to scout around to make sure there were no other monsters.

After returning to Elena's bed after 2 minutes, Beixi was startled when she saw black light emanating from her wrist, and opened her sleeve, the wound became more and more devilish.

"strangeness?!"

Beixi hurriedly took out the holy water and dripped a few drops on his wrist. When the holy water touched the magic energy, it was swallowed up in an instant.Beixi poured down a bottle directly.

"ZizzZZZZ"

The two forces counteracted, and the holy water gradually absorbed the magic energy and temporarily suppressed it.Beixi was worried and woke up Elena.

Her consciousness was a little fuzzy, and with the help of Beixi, she drank another bottle of holy water, and then fell into a deep sleep.

If it wasn't for being able to feel her breath, Bei Xi thought she would die and become a monster...

However, the current situation is not equivalent to demonization.

Beixi was also helpless, she just came to do the mission to gain the command, but she didn't expect that Yi Lianna was attacked.Coincidence? Or accident?
There is no mission, it seems like it was just an accident?
Waited seven, eight minutes.

During this process, Beixi used ten bottles of holy water to maintain Elena's condition, and Fan Fan came here.

Along with Guren, there was also a stern-faced Rez.

Into the hut.

Bei Xi leaned against the stone bed and sat cross-legged on the ground, with a pile of empty bottles beside her.The two of Honglian didn't know what it was for, and only Wan Shan knew that it was a bottle of holy water.

Rez's eyes touched Elena on the bed, his face changed, and he walked quickly, Bei Xi consciously stepped aside.

There is no blood on the face, and the breath is weak, as if it will disappear in the next second.Rez looked at the dark demonic energy on her right hand that was starting to act again, and looked at Beixi, with panic and anxiety in his dignified expression. "Can it be dispelled?"

When she came, Guren had already explained the situation.

Rez was already mentally prepared, but he didn't expect the situation to be worse than he thought.

Beixi pointed at the fan, "Let her see it."

The fan kicked away the bottles that were in the way, and walked to the bed. "Move to another place, I am the only one here who can help her purify the dark devilish energy."

Rez clenched his fists and backed away.

Hong Lian tugged at the corner of Beixi's clothes. Beixi looked at her, and she asked in a low voice: "Is something going to happen?"

Beixi is not sure.

This is the first time I see this situation.The holy water couldn't suppress the dark demonic energy, but the strange thing was that the attacking monster was only a rudimentary one.

This cannot be explained.

Beixi is also confused now.Just now, the power of the demon energy increased greatly, and she was so frightened that she quickly poured holy water, but with so much holy water, the demon energy became stronger every time.

"I don't know either." Beixi couldn't make a promise. "If she can't help it, then there's really nothing she can do."

She pointed to the fan.

The fan gave a purification.

The evil energy of the wound dissipated, and the room was filled with a pleasant and fresh air in an instant.And the demon energy in the wound on Yi Lianna's wrist was dissipated in an instant, and disappeared.

Honglian was overjoyed.

Rez's expression also softened.

However, at this moment of the mutation, a wisp of dark devilish energy suddenly shot out from the wound, rushing directly towards the fan.

Beixi reacted the fastest, pulling the fan back, and greeted her with fists.The magic energy collided with the mechanical gloves, and there was a crisp sound.

Fan Fan frowned.

The magic energy gradually dissipated after the impact.And Yi Lianna's wound began to linger with a strong devilish energy.

"What's going on?" Honglian was shocked.

They don't know either.

Bei Xi looked back at the fan, and the fan spread out his hands. "Are you sure it was the primary monster that hurt her?"

Beixi touched the gun and said thoughtfully: "I was sure it was a beginner before, but now I'm not sure."

Rez's tone was a little anxious. "Brave, what's going on?"

"As you can see."

"The holy water all over the ground can't suppress the devilish energy on her body, and the priest's purification has no effect either."

"What do you mean, Elena will be demonized?" Honglian asked anxiously.

"No, it's already being demonized." Wan Shan said.

As soon as these words came out, Rez and Guren turned pale with fright.

"However, this state can be returned to zero."

If demonization has a process, then every time their holy water and purification can bring this process to the original value.However, they couldn't completely dispel this demonic energy, which the two of them didn't understand.

"Let Tangtang come over, she has relatively high skills, and she also has the [Judgment] badge, which should be more effective than me."

"[Trial] is only for people with status."

"How do you know if you don't try?"

"Okay. Then you tell her."

The two talked like no one else.

After the fan walked aside, Hong Lian asked, "Is there any other way?"

Beixi nodded.

"Well, we'll try our best."
