Fallen Sorcerer
After walking several dozen ters, Chen Zixuan once again controlled the Darkwing Demon Bat high in the sky, having it emit ultrasonic waves to relocate the mastermind's current position.
Fortunately, he was still lingering in the sa spot, not far from where Chen Zixuan was now—probably only six to seven hundred ters away.
As long as he could kill the mastermind, this event might be brought to an early conclusion.
Chen Zixuan used his mind to recall the Darkwing Demon Bat that had served as a scout, severing their connection and returning it to his pet backpack.
With the cutting of this intangible link, the silver-haired girl's crimson left pupil gradually faded to the sa clear blue as her right eye.
Although the [Scout] skill was very useful, a Lv. 1 Darkwing Demon Bat was simply too weak and provided no real help in battle.
Moreover, the price of reviving it after death was steep—far beyond what Chen Zixuan could stomach at this point.
After walking several more hundred ters, Chen Zixuan finally spotted a black figure standing motionlessly, as if it were a lifeless statue.
Stepping closer, Chen Zixuan finally saw the figure's face.
He was clad in a tattered black robe. Withered hands, like twigs, gripped a magic staff inlaid with a skull. His left hand was hidden inside his robe, concealing whatever he might be holding.
What surprised Chen Zixuan most was that the mysterious figure's na floated above him in glaring scarlet.
['Fallen Sorcerer' Sindigo]
A red-nad player? No, a red-nad NPC!
The silver-haired girl was stunned—this was the first ti he had seen an NPC with a red na in this ga.
Chen Zixuan only knew that after a player killed another player, their na would appear red overhead. He never expected that by simply participating in an event, he would encounter a red-nad NPC.
Normally, when encountering an enemy, both parties would be unable to communicate and would transition into battle mode imdiately. Yet, battle music did not trigger this ti—could they still converse?
At that mont, the Fallen Sorcerer Sindigo also sensed soone approaching. He paused, raised his head to look at the silver-haired girl, and sounded a chilling, hoarse laugh: "What a fine day—soone actually ca to offer themselves up?"
His face was shrouded by his hood, rendering his expression unreadable, but Chen Zixuan could tell he was definitely pleased.
"The taste of two-legged sheep... Ah, how I miss it. It's been so long since I've last feasted on human blood..."
Sindigo smacked his lips, still savoring the thought as he tilted his head back with his gray and tangled beard exposed.
Judging by his tone, it seed a fight was imminent...
The silver-haired girl beca exceedingly vigilant, her right hand slowly reaching for the dagger at her waist.
But then, after taking a deep breath, Sindigo suddenly trembled beneath his black robe, raised his staff, and pointed at the silver-haired girl in utter astonishnt.
"No! You're not human. That sweet aroma... You are a Vampire! Yes, you are a newly born Vampire!"
"Vampire...?"
Confusion appeared on Chen Zixuan's face.
Imdiately, he recalled the race entry on his character panel, which indeed read "Vampire" instead of "Human," like other players.
"Hohohoho..."
Sindigo suddenly started laughing with delight, his voice as jarring as a screeching night owl.
Then, he spoke in a deep voice, "That's right! Newly born Vampire, co join and let us join forces. Lowly creatures like humans are only fit to be our food. You drink their blood, I'll eat their flesh! Let us slaughter every human—I shall grant you a reward you cannot refuse!"
As Sindigo finished speaking, in Chen Zixuan's field of vision, the red na above Sindigo's head shifted to a normal color.
Is this... asking to choose a faction? Chen Zixuan bowed his head in thought.
If he joined Sindigo's faction, with the two of them plus all the monsters present, they could easily wipe out all the players participating in this event.
Gu Yanxi included.
This was sothing Chen Zixuan could never agree to. No matter how great the rewards Sindigo promised afterward, he could not bear to raise his hand against Gu Yanxi.
So, the silver-haired girl decisively shook her head, drew her dagger, and coldly refused, "Sorry, but I think killing you will be easier."
As soon as the words left her lips, a burst of red light exploded before Chen Zixuan's eyes!
"Foolish Vampire, how dare you defy Lord Uriel's will?! Go to hell with the humans you wish to protect!"
Sindigo flew into a rage, lifting his staff as black lightning writhed like serpents.
Simultaneously, an epic and stirring battle the resounded in Chen Zixuan's ears!
Sindigo's information slowly appeared before him.
['Fallen Sorcerer' Sindigo]
Race: Human
Level: 18
HP: 4500
Attack: 60
Magic: 175
Physical Defense: 38
Magic Defense: 41
Agility: 130
Skills: [Soul Manipulation], [Death Coil], [Dark Lightning], [Night Raven's Shadow]
......
Judging by the information, the Fallen Sorcerer was most likely a mage-type humanoid monster. In a battle with this kind of enemy, close combat was the best solution.
Thus, the silver-haired girl reversed her grip on her dagger and dashed toward the black-robed sorcerer.
With 380 points in Agility, she was like a leaf caught in a violent gust, and in an instant, she arrived before Sindigo.
At that mont, Sindigo had already finished casting his skill. The skull at the tip of his staff suddenly lit up, and countless arcs of black lightning struck downward from above the silver-haired girl's head!
A level-18 monster's attack would surely hurt. In haste, Chen Zixuan used [Night Raid], instantly teleporting behind Sindigo and slashing at the center of his back.
-412!
Though she dodged the densest area of the falling lightning, the skill's area damage still caused -78, -64, -69... in magic damage to float above the silver-haired girl's head.
With her body tingling and stinging as if pricked by needles, Chen Zixuan's HP dropped by more than half in an instant.
Fortunately, Cecilia's magic defense was exceptionally high—over 80 points—otherwise, this single skill could have led to Chen Zixuan's imdiate demise.
There was no helping it; level 18 versus level 7—it was a massive gap.
The situation was urgent, with no ti for hesitation. The silver-haired girl slashed thrice in quick succession, applying her weapon's Armor Break effect to Sindigo and restoring her own HP by over 60 points.
Just then, Sindigo suddenly swept his staff, summoning a flock of jet-dark magic ravens that flapped their wings nacingly at the silver-haired girl.
Danger!
A giant blood-red character flashed in Chen Zixuan's mind. He quickly leaped to the side to dodge and opened up distance, causing Sindigo's strike to miss.
The two sides beca embroiled in a difficult tug-of-war.
