#2071 - Challenge
Lindro understood clearly.
Under normal circumstances, their team of five would have about a 60% success rate challenging an S-level trial.
This time, they encountered an accident; one member couldn't make it.
Originally, missing one person would mean their chances of succeeding in an S-level challenge were almost zero.
Randomly adding someone they don't know, whose strength is unclear, and with whom they have no coordination, would also make it difficult to guarantee success.
It's better to play it safe and choose an A-level trial.
Even if they misjudged and picked a lousy teammate, they would still have about a 60% success rate on their own.
"Okay, happy to cooperate."
Fang Heng just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.
He wanted to use the team's strength to enter the so-called trial and then see if there was any way to leave after entering!
Even if he couldn't leave midway through the trial, he should be able to leave the temple area after completing one trial.
At least he could have more room to maneuver.
"Hahaha, you're a straightforward brother. Come on, let me introduce you to our teammates."
Lindro enthusiastically led Fang Heng to join the team.
Including Fang Heng, Lindro's team had a total of five people.
One was a magic-based healer and scouting specialist, one was a defense-oriented paladin specialist, and the other two were flex players who were mostly responsible for output but could fill in during emergencies.
In fact, the higher the level of the game world, the closer the players in the team are to being all-rounders.
The division of labor in the team is often not that clear.
There are indeed specialists, but every player can switch and fill in at any time.
The healing specialist can also go up and fight and output, just not as proficiently.
So, the first time he saw Fang Heng, Lindro didn't even ask which position Fang Heng was good at.
【Prompt: Player Lindro invites you to join the team】.
【Prompt: Player has joined a normal team, current permissions: Member】.
"Let's go, we'll go to the instructor to receive the mission first."
"I won't go."
It affects the NPC's initial favorability towards you and the subsequent increase in favorability.
From the players' years of exploration, each player's initial charm value fluctuates between -3 and 3.
About 90% of players have an initial charm value of 0.
Being deducted 5 points is obviously a huge loss.
With this as the price, the other attributes of the equipment must not be too bad.
"Okay, we'll go over to receive the mission. Brother Fang Heng, wait here for a while, we'll be back soon."
"Okay."
Fang Heng watched Lindro lead the team towards a paladin instructor in the center of the hall.
Lindro spoke with the instructor for a moment.
Soon, a line of game prompts appeared on Fang Heng's retina.
【Prompt: Player team has received a random Holy Army Trial Mission - Level: A】.
【Prompt: This mission is highly dangerous, please be careful】.
"It's settled."
Lindro and the others walked towards Fang Heng, nodding, "The mission has been received. I chatted with the instructor for a few words, no big problem, let's go."
Fang Heng followed behind Lindro, and the team stepped into the teleportation channel area on the right side of the hall.
Whoosh, whoosh whoosh…
Holy light enveloped Fang Heng and the others.
Suddenly, everyone disappeared into the teleportation channel at the same time.
…
After an unknown amount of time, Fang Heng opened his eyes again.
In the dim morning light, the entrance to a snow-covered mountain appeared before him.
The road in front of him was almost covered with thick snow, and he could only vaguely see a path leading up the mountain.
Snowflakes falling from the top of the mountain gently landed on his shoulders.
Game prompts appeared.
【Prompt: Player has entered an unknown game world, players need to obtain more information to find the world coordinate points】.
【Prompt: Player's current Holy Army Trial Mark continues to take effect. Under the mark's state, all of the player's trial actions will be recorded. Actions that violate the Holy Army's teachings will additionally deduct Holy Army experience points and points. In case of special circumstances, you will be forcibly teleported back to the Eternal Holy City】.
【Prompt: Player team has currently triggered the trial mission - Strangulation of the Three-Eyed Serpent】.
Mission Name: Strangulation of the Three-Eyed Serpent.
Mission Description: The Three-Eyed Serpent, sleeping in the snow mountain, has been awakened by some accidental stimuli. The Three-Eyed Serpent occupies the entire snow mountain range and has even invaded the towns below the mountain more than once, destroying the Holy Court churches in the towns. The Holy Court believers piously pray, begging for divine revelation to descend and诛杀 the Three-Eyed Serpent.
Mission Requirements: Kill the Three-Eyed Serpent.
Time Limit: 3 hours (if the time expires, the player will default to failing the mission and will automatically be reversed and teleported back to the Eternal Holy City).
A boss-killing mission?
Fang Heng observed the mission prompts and analyzed in his heart.
He couldn't judge the boss's strength based solely on the mission description, and it was also difficult to figure out what kind of game world this was.
Moreover, the mission time limit was only a short 3 hours.
After 3 hours, he would be forced to fail and teleport back to the Eternal Holy City.
Also, the Holy Army's trial mark continued to take effect.
His every move was being monitored.
It was best not to use necromantic or vampire skills.
A little troublesome.
Lacking the vampire form, the distance that could be moved within three hours was actually very limited for the entire game world.
Fang Heng thought to himself that it would be difficult to find the teleportation channel and leave this world before the countdown ended.
【Prompt: Player has crossed world boundaries, the tracking team sent by the Divine Realm will re-attempt to lock your position in 9+15 (additionally increased due to artifact skill effects) hours】.
Eh?
Fang Heng was thinking about how to leave when he saw the sudden game prompt and couldn't help but be stunned.
There's such a good thing!?
That's right.
Performing trial missions through the Holy Court's teleportation channel also defaults to entering a new world boundary, so the pursuers from the Divine Realm would suddenly need to re-lock his position.
That's good news.
"It's a leader kill mission, everyone be careful."
Fang Heng raised his head and looked at Lindro, who was issuing a reminder from the side.
The expressions of the players on the team couldn't help but become a little serious when they saw the triggered mission prompts.
Among all the missions, leader battles are one of the more difficult ones.
The risks are high, and the consumption is also high.
Moreover, this time there was only a 3-hour mission time limit.
This meant that it was rare for players to find a different way to complete the mission during the battle.
In most cases, they relied on brute force!
Fang Heng raised his head and looked, and a red channel indicator appeared on his retina, pointing to the location of the Three-Eyed Serpent on the mountaintop.
"Let's go."
Lindro said, taking the lead and leading everyone up the mountain.
