Astral Apostle Chapter 34: Revenge Mechanism

Hearing that, everyone had no objection, they just told Zhou Jing not to go too far, but no one was worried about what would happen to Zhou Jing if he acted alone.

Zhou Jing left the team, walked in the forest for a while, stopped in a seemingly deserted forest, glanced around, and said: "Come out."

As soon as the words fell, a figure quietly turned out from behind the tree. It was Rose, walking silently.

Zhou Jing went up to hold his shoulder, read the experience log of his followers, and quickly received a lot of images.

After these three months, Ross finally practiced some combat skills, mastered the skills of several weapons such as daggers and short knives, and also learned the skill of blacksmithing.

Although they are all at the beginner level, but with the strengthened physical fitness, they can already come in handy, which is more or less considered combat strength.

However, Zhou Jing hasn't told others about Rose's enhancement of different blood, and usually doesn't show it. In the eyes of others, Rose is still a little transparent.

Because Rose's strengthening direction is good at stealth, and he moves quietly in the forest, Zhou Jing let Rose move around the crusade team, secretly searching for the target without telling everyone, and it was rewarding at this time.

According to the images of his entourage, Ross spotted the bone man raiders running through the forest, but the other party didn't notice him, so he retreated quietly and came back to report.

Zhou Jing looked at Rose speechlessly.

"You have already found their raiding team, why didn't you follow them to find the location of the lair? Come back and report now, and when we find it, their raiding team has already left that location, okay?"

Ross: (o_O)

"... well, blame me, I didn't make it clear to you."

Zhou Jing helped his forehead.

Although he has some combat power, this follower is still stupid. If the order is a little more complicated, he will not be able to handle it, let alone adapt to the situation, highlighting a rigidity.

Zhou Jing shook his head and gave a new instruction:

"Now go and squat where the bone man was, try not to be seen, wait for me to find it."

With the positioning in his mind, Rose is very suitable as a marker eye position for pathfinding. It is precisely because of this ability that he thinks that Rose can be used as a scout or guide, and bring them together to fight against the bone man.

Hearing this, Rose turned away without saying a word, and quickly disappeared into the forest.

Zhou Jing turned around before returning to the team.

"What did you find?" Baron looked over.

"Not yet." Zhou Jing shook his head.

Everyone didn't take it seriously, and after checking around, they continued on the road.

Although Zhou Jing didn't say it directly, he led the way secretly, suggesting that the team change the direction many times, and secretly marched towards Ross's location.

Regarding Zhou Jing's proposal, everyone had no opinion. Anyway, there are no clues at the moment, and they are going in any direction.

It didn't take long for everyone to arrive near where Ross was positioned, and finally found the traces left by the bone man raiding team in the forest, and they were overjoyed.

There is a mess of footprints in front of you, and it can be seen that there are a lot of people, extending into the deep forest.

Baron squatted down, rubbed a pinch of dirt on the footprints with his fingers, and said in surprise:

"The footprints are relatively new. It seems that the bone man raiding team passed here not long ago."

Weiss cheered up: "How should we say, should we follow behind, or go up to catch a few alive and use it to lead the way?"

Baron pondered for a while, then turned to look at Zhou Jing: "What do you think?"

"Go straight up and catch people."

Zhou Jing did not hesitate.

There are a lot of them, and they don't have Rose's reinforcements, so they are easy to be spotted if they follow behind.

And I have limited investment time, so save as much as you can.

Hearing this, Baron didn't object, he beckoned and led the team to catch up along the trail.

……

Everyone ran forward all the way, and the footprints left by the skeleton man in front became more and more new.

Soon, the figures of the Earth Bone Man appeared in the forest ahead, and there were about dozens of them.

At this moment, the bone man raider also heard the movement behind him, issued an urgent whistle, looked back, and when he saw the crusade team, he yelled loudly, and shot without saying a word.

A rain of arrows is coming!

"Kill!"

Enemies were extremely jealous when they met each other, Baron roared, raised his battle ax to block in front of him, and rushed out like a bull.

The arrows clanged and hit the face of the axe, causing them to scatter in all directions.

As soon as Zhou Jing kicked his legs, he rushed out like a cheetah, and suddenly drew out the two knives around his waist. His eyes moved quickly to lock on to the arrows that threatened him, and he easily chopped them all down in mid-air without any arrows on his body. .

Today's physical fitness and sword skills are enough to match his fighting instincts and block all arrows.

Dangdang——

The light of the dancing knife is like a barrier, and the rain and arrows cannot enter.

He rushed forward, and the distance was shortened rapidly, and the frightened expression of the earth bone man was enlarged in his sight.

Zhou Jing dragged his two sabers and plunged headlong into the crowd of bone figures.

Swipe, swipe——

The light of the knife is like a tornado.

Instantly rolled up the sky full of stumps and broken arms!

Zhou Jing moved swiftly, moving through the crowd like a phantom. The hasty attack of the earth bone man did not pose any threat to him. In his eyes, it was as slow as a snail.

The two knives are precise and sharp, almost no need to block, and they are directly in front of the bone man, and cut open the opponent's neck, arm or waist when the opponent just makes an attack posture.

Swipe, swipe——

Wherever the light of the knife passed, the bone man fell down like mowing grass.

Occasionally, the weapons collided, and Zhou Jing's powerful double swords directly smashed the weapons of the bone man.

Three months later, the hunter workshop finally finished making the equipment. The double knives Zhou Jing used at this time were made of metal fusion after special treatment of the split-claw bear's claws. Tough, not to mention the shoddy equipment made by the earth bone people.

The bearskin battle armor with a fur collar on its body inherited the characteristics of the split-claw bear. It is difficult to penetrate with ordinary chopping and stabbing, providing superior defensive performance.

Zhou Jing whipped up a storm in the crowd of earth bones and fought smoothly, disrupting the opponent's formation.

He casually cut the throat of one of the bone men, and at this moment, the panel suddenly flickered.

[The culprit of the death of "Will Wood" (Apostle No. 001) has been executed]

[Complete revenge]

[The evaluation of the star apostle's career is slightly improved this time]

[A certain ability of "Will Wood" can be inherited for free... The test results show that there is no uninherited ability]

[Trigger the achievement [Revenge]! ]

[Milestone [Avengers] Progress: 1/5]

"Huh?" Zhou Jing was slightly taken aback.

Avengers must be revenged? I can't find this item in the achievement list, it seems to be a hidden achievement, and this is the first time I triggered it.

That is to say, the bone man who was slaughtered just now was the direct murderer of "Will Wood".

It seems that there is a special reward for revenge for the last star apostle...

Huh!

At this time, a bone spear stabbed head-on.

Zhou Jing quickly regained his senses, cut off the enemy's spear-holding arm with a slash of the left knife, and then stabbed forward with the right knife, piercing the enemy's eye socket and straight through the back of the head.

He picked up the enemy's body, threw it to the side vigorously, and knocked over a bone man who came up next to him.

Zhou Jing settled down, did not continue to distract himself from checking the panel, and focused on dealing with the enemy in front of him, while Baron and others also rushed in at this time.

With Zhou Jing alone, the bone man raiding team couldn't stop it. At this moment, Baron, Weiss and others joined the battlefield, and instantly crushed the bone man raiding team to the ground.

Ten soldiers from Baiyuan City formed a simple battle formation, and their advances and retreats were well-founded. Although they were not as crushing as the three beast hunters, they fought steadily, killing all the bone men who approached like a meat grinder.

After only a few minutes, the battle was over, and dozens of bone man marauders lay on the ground.

There were only a few earth bone figures left intact, who were tied together by everyone, screaming and screaming with horror on their faces.

Looking at the corpses all over the floor, Baron felt a bad breath. He turned to Griff and said, "Go and interrogate these survivors and let them take us to the lair."

Griff nodded and complied. Although they didn't understand the language, they had dealt with the Earth Bone Man before, and sign language was enough to communicate. Moreover, they used a knife to speak, so they didn't have to worry about the Earth Bone Man not being able to understand the meaning.

The hunters of Shuangmu Village will not be merciful to the bones of the earth, how can they be worthy of their dead companions.

Zhou Jing did not participate in the interrogation, but wiped the long knife aside, shaking his head secretly.

The Earth Bone Man, who used to be quite difficult, is now easy to solve. Maybe he can do it by himself. It's a complete crush.

Although the abuse of food was quite enjoyable, it was just that there was no disturbance in Zhou Jing's heart.

Although he is getting used to killing now, he doesn't have too much interest in it. What he likes is fighting with back and forth, and intense and exciting fights with powerful enemies, which will make him excited.

"It's no fun to abuse food... It seems that I have a bit of the gene of a berserker."

Zhou Jing smacked his lips, opened the panel and thought carefully about what was triggered just now.

After groping for a while, he confirmed that there is a "revenge mechanism" in the apostles of the star world.

When a star apostle dies artificially, and I use the follow-up star apostle to avenge him and kill the murderer, this mechanism will be triggered and special rewards will be obtained.

One is that it can improve the career settlement evaluation of the current star apostle, including death settlement and clearance settlement.

The second is that you can get a new "free inheritance slot" like death settlement, and get a certain ability of the death star apostle.

Because the ability of "Will Wood" was inherited by the current "Jason Wood", it didn't take effect this time.

The third one is to trigger a special achievement, [Wind for Vengeance] is a repetitive achievement, every time you complete revenge for a certain star world apostle, it can be triggered once.

The rewards are uncertain, and different amounts of rewards will be given according to the strength of the apostle of the Death Star Realm and the strength of the murderer.

And the [Revenge] that was triggered this time only gave 500 star points, not many, probably because "Will Wood" is not extraordinary, and the enemy is just an ordinary bone man.

In addition, every time you complete [Revenge], you will accumulate the progress of the [Avenger] milestone, and you can trigger this milestone by completing a total of five times.

It was also the first time for Zhou Jing to trigger a milestone. This thing is a special kind of achievement, and it needs to complete related actions many times before it can be truly triggered. The rewards are generally richer than ordinary achievements.

"In this way, if every star apostle dies unexpectedly, then this achievement can be triggered very quickly..."

Zhou Jing pondered for a while, then shook his head and laughed.

Thinking about it, he didn't intend to die deliberately, and felt that the cost of time was not worth it.

He is not humble either, he always feels that he will have a lot of opportunities to burp in the future.

"Don't force it, just accumulate slowly."

Zhou Jing shook his head.

At this time, everyone's interrogation of the bone man was over, and two more people were killed, and finally the remaining bone man who was afraid of death learned to cooperate.

"Let's go." Baron greeted Zhou Jing.

Hearing the words ~IndoMTL.com~ Zhou Jing put away the long knife and followed.

……

Following the bone man who led the way, the group cautiously groped forward.

Everyone will not fully trust the enemy, and keep an eye out for fear of being led into some trap.

After walking until the sky was full of red clouds, the crusade team finally arrived at the entrance of the bone man's lair.

This is a burrow hidden behind trees and vines, which is very confusing. If you don't look carefully, it is easy to ignore it.

Everyone hid in the forest not far away, concealed their figures, and looked at the cave in the distance with their probes.

They have already searched the surrounding area, and quietly eliminated several bone man guard posts near the entrance of the lair.

Baron retracted his head, stroked his beard and pondered: "There are countless people and traps in the bone man's lair. If we rush in rashly, we may encounter danger."

"It makes sense." Weiss nodded: "Then you take the lead."

Everyone silently turned their heads to look at him.

"What are you looking at? I'm just here to help, you guys won't let me rush in first?"

On the other side, Griff thought for a while and suggested, "How about we light a fire and force the bone man out?"

"That's fine." Baron nodded.

Everyone quickly prepared a large pile of dry firewood and started to set fire to the cave.

Zhou Jing also has no objection, and does not intend to give everyone a sense of science, protecting the environment and preventing wildfires.

There was a fire in the cave, and there were bursts of commotion inside.

Soon, a large group of earth-bone men rushed out. At a glance, there were no less than a hundred people, tall, short, fat and thin, all of whom were holding weapons.

The people hiding around are preparing to make a move.

"Roar!"

At this moment, there was a roar of a strange beast in the cave.
