Chapter 171 Defect of the Exorcism Scroll

Shi Feng didn’t plan on telling Xue Ya about the defects of the Exorcism Scroll.

They were just collaborators, each taking what they needed. They weren’t friends, and there was no relationship between them.

Whether Dark Crow could defend against the accumulating monsters was not his concern. After all, he had only charged a small price to allow Dark Crow to survive the most difficult initial period. Besides, people like Dark Crow, who had plenty of magic crystals, should be taken advantage of.

The Teleportation Hall in White River City was in desperate need of magic crystals. With enough magic crystals, he could turn them into gold coins in minutes, ensuring the security of Zero Wing’s first city.

With the constraint of the Main God System after signing the contract, both parties were at ease.

Shi Feng had originally wanted to leave using a Return Scroll, but Xue Ya suddenly stopped him.

"Wait!" Xue Ya stopped Shi Feng and said with a smile, "I have another piece of information here that I think might be useful to your Zero Wing Guild."

As Xue Ya spoke, he took out a black sealed letter and handed it directly to Shi Feng.

Shi Feng raised an eyebrow when he saw the black envelope.

The black envelope seemed ordinary, but it contained specially encrypted information. Only designated players could see it, and no other player could. Moreover, it would be automatically destroyed after being read, even if the player wanted to record it.

"Video information?" After opening the envelope, Shi Feng saw that the information displayed was a video file. He immediately clicked to open the file.

What he didn't know before, shocked him greatly when he saw it.

In the video, many players were besieging a black-robed, unicorn humanoid creature that was more than three meters tall. The humanoid creature had many scarlet runes on its body, like flames, and emitted rolling black mist from its whole body. Its scarlet eyes made people shudder.

In the video, everything about the monster was unknown except for its level and health points, which was very strange.

Although its level was not high, only Level 40, and its health was only a little over one million, roughly judged as a leader-level monster, hundreds of elite players were killed by this humanoid unicorn monster.

The deaths of these hundreds of elite players above Level 35 were not the key point, but the means of killing them were extraordinary.

The humanoid unicorn monster's fighting style was just like that of a real player.

Moreover, every time the monster killed a player, not only did its health recover, but its attributes also gradually increased. Most unbelievably, Shi Feng saw something familiar.

Magic patterns that absorbed immortal souls!

Before, in order to complete a quest, Xia Lian had left magic patterns that absorbed immortal souls on the back of his hand. These magic patterns would only emit a faint silver-gray light when absorbing immortal souls.

At this time, the magic patterns that absorbed immortal souls were engraved on the humanoid unicorn monster's chest. Every time a player was killed, the magic patterns in its chest would emit a faint silver-gray light, looking like the monster's heart, beating rhythmically.

The player who recorded the video was a passing expert assassin. Because he had been staying far away and was in stealth, it was difficult to detect him, so the video was recorded until the end of the battle.

After the humanoid unicorn monster killed all the players, an incredible thing happened.

The weapons and equipment dropped by the players were useless to the monster, unless they were specific quest items. However, this humanoid unicorn monster actually collected all the dropped items from the players.

Just as the monster was leaving, several other figures appeared in the video. Several of these figures were the same as that monster, tall and with a horn, but among these monsters, there was even a player. However, this player was wearing a black cloak and a mask. It was too far away to tell whether it was male or female.

The reason it was definitely a player was because of the green diamond mark, which was a unique mark only players had.

The expert assassin who recorded the video originally wanted to catch up, but was discovered halfway through. Even though the Level 38 expert assassin tried to escape with all his might, he ultimately could not escape the humanoid unicorn monster's pursuit.

"How could there be such a monster?" Shi Feng looked at the expert assassin killed by the humanoid unicorn monster, and felt a chill in his heart.

From the perspective of combat skills alone, this expert assassin had reached the level of the sixth floor of the Trial Tower. He could be considered a good expert player even in a first-rate guild. After all, passing the fourth floor of the Trial Tower was already considered an expert by most players, not to mention reaching the sixth floor.

However, the combat level of the unicorn monster that killed this expert assassin was even higher. According to the combat scene Shi Feng could see, it was at least at the level of the seventh floor of the Trial Tower.

Because there were too few combat scenes, and it was a flat video, not a holographic simulation, it was not clear. Even Shi Feng could not accurately judge the true level of these unicorn monsters. However, according to Shi Feng's estimation, these monsters were at least at the half-step Insight Realm level…

Shi Feng was not surprised that NPCs in God's Domain could reach this level, because he had encountered those with combat skills dozens of times stronger. However, if monsters in God's Domain wanted to reach this level, their intelligence must be very high, so high that even monsters at the Grand Lord level could not reach it.

"The assassin who recorded the video is a red-named player, and also has some reputation. It has been two days since he was killed, but he still cannot log into God's Domain," Xue Ya said slowly. "Not many people know about this matter yet. According to him, these monsters are very powerful. Before those monsters dealt with the elite team, they were killing wild Bosses, but the elite team happened to encounter them. In the end, that elite team was also slaughtered by the monster. The monster's attributes will also increase by killing monsters and players, and its intelligence is very high."

"The assassin said that when facing the unicorn monster, he felt like he was not facing a monster, but an expert player. Its intelligence was so high that it could easily see through his every move and make corresponding attacks in advance."

"What does this have to do with our Zero Wing?" Shi Feng couldn't help but ask curiously.

Although he also felt that these monsters were not simple, there were too many bizarre things in God's Domain. Maybe it was some God's Domain event. He was too busy making money right now to care about these trivial matters.

"To say there is a relationship, there is a little. To say there is no relationship, it can also be said that there isn't," Xue Ya said with a smile. "The recording location of this video is in the Star-Moon Kingdom, and it is not far from Stone Forest Town. Although the levels of these monsters are nothing to the current Stone Forest Town protected by NPC guards, I think the safety of Stone Forest Town will be a problem after the protection disappears. After all, no one can guarantee how far those monsters can grow."
