"Thanks for letting me know, I'll go to the island now."
After realizing that he did not need to have any conflict with this powerful aura Many-Eyed Whale, Wang Zhifan restrained some of his fighting spirit and quickly walked across the sea towards Forbidden Fruit Island not far away.
He originally thought he was going to have a final battle with this guy, but he didn't expect that the other party turned out to be a friendly unit, so he didn't have to waste his energy. After all, this copy couldn't produce treasures even if he killed monsters.
In just a few minutes, Wang Zhifan rushed to the vicinity of Forbidden Fruit Island through the water that kept freezing under his feet. This beautiful island was dozens of meters above the sea. If other people came nearby, they would definitely have to go around the island to find a suitable entrance, but for him there was no need.
He directly froze the surrounding seawater to form solid ice, and then controlled the ice cubes to gather and rise, connecting the sea surface to Forbidden Fruit Island like a bridge, and arrived at the island in a few seconds.
Entering the island, Wang Zhifan fell into a green forest, which was full of vitality with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, but he did not see anything that could be called fruit. However, he did not feel impatient. His strong perception had already made him discover something, and he immediately quickened his pace and ran through the woods towards the central area of the island.
At the same time, in the center of Forbidden Fruit Island, the situation is the same as what Many-Eyed Giant Whale said outside. The first batch of players to land on the island are encountering considerable difficulties.
The only one standing among them was a man with long, messy hair and an unkempt beard. He seemed to be in a bad situation. His clothes were torn and there were several wounds on his face. He was looking solemnly at a tall fruit tree about 20 meters in front of him. The other two people had fallen to the ground. The wounds all over their bodies and the cold body temperature indicated that they were already dead.
Around the tall fruit tree, two five-meter-tall Water Element Guardian and Wind Element Guardian, one blue and one white, were guarding it tightly, preventing anyone from getting close to picking the fruits from the tree. The injuries on these people were the result of forced fruit picking not long ago.
Suddenly, the white Wind Element Guardian, which was floating quietly on the side of the fruit tree just a moment ago, moved. Its body composed of multiple violent airflows suddenly branched out into a storm vortex, and quickly swept through a seemingly normal open space next to the tall fruit tree.
Immediately, a scream sounded, and the figure of a certain man emerged from the air. He was mercilessly thrown out by the storm and fell not far from the long-haired and bearded man.
"Boss... I was very careful just now... but it still found me..."
The man then reluctantly got up from the ground and looked at the long-haired and bearded man who was approaching.
"Well... these two monsters are too perceptive. Your professional invisibility ability can't fool them. Let's think of other ways."
The long-haired and bearded man first confirmed that his companion on the ground was not seriously injured, and then turned his gaze again to stare at the fruit tree in front and the two guards next to the fruit tree, with a look of anxiety and weakness in his eyes.
Because they have been stuck in this final step for several days. It is obvious that they can pass the level by picking any fruit from the tree, but they have tried so many times and failed, and even lost two companions.
You know, in the first two months, he still had a Top Gun mentality, thinking that he was very strong and that as long as he worked hard, he could successfully lead the team to pass the level. However, after such a long time, he did lead these teammates to the last step, but he ushered in such a bad situation.
"If you turn into a bird and fly over, you will be blocked by the wind element. If you turn into an animal, you will be beaten back by the water element. If you fly over directly, you will be easily beaten by a mixed double... These two guards are strong and quick to respond. We only have two people now. It is difficult to get past them and get close to the fruit tree... The difficulty of this level is really too much."
The long-haired and bearded man was feeling a little frustrated now. He had given full play to his abilities here, turning into birds, pythons, tigers, gorillas, elephants and even pangolins to get close to the fruit trees in front, but every time he was beaten back by the two tough guys. The only good news was that these two guards usually wouldn't kill them all, otherwise they might all die.
"How about I try to turn into a fly and slip by again? This is the minimum limit of my change."
After pondering for a while, he felt that he had to continue working hard, so he ignored his companion who was sitting on the ground drinking medicine to heal his injuries, and quickly retreated into a forest outside.
As soon as he hid in this place with blocked vision and was sure that the two elemental guards could not detect him, he activated his powerful ability and turned into an inconspicuous fly. He flapped his small wings and made a detour, quietly approaching the fruit tree from another direction.
This time, he quickly felt that his progress seemed to be a bit smooth. He had been close to the big tree in his fly form until he was within five meters of the tree. The wind and water elements that were some distance away had no reaction.
"Very good! There is hope!"
This situation made him see the possibility of ending the dungeon, so he quickly accelerated his speed and flew high towards the middle of the tall fruit tree, intending to rush to a fruit and transform into a monkey to pick the fruit and then into an eagle to fly away with the fruit.
However, the plan was good, and changes would break all illusions. When the fly he turned into was about two meters away from the fruit tree, the originally relatively quiet wind element discovered his movements again, and instantly released a whirlwind that swept towards him.
As we all know, Fly's body is very fragile, and he was also in this transformed state, so he was so frightened that he returned to his human form in an instant to avoid being directly killed by the incoming whirlwind.
After hurriedly transforming back into human form, he did not give up on his goal. He rushed towards the tall fruit tree that was very close to him at a burst of speed, preparing to pick a fruit. He might have completed the task even though he was injured.
But just when his outstretched hand was about to touch a fruit, many light blue arms made of water flow came from nearby, and grabbed him firmly, forcibly pulling him back from a distance within reach, and then flung him high and fell heavily to the ground.
"This dungeon is targeting me! Why are these two guards so strong! Even I can't clear the level! Does anyone else have any hope of clearing it?! Rubbish! Rubbish dungeon! Rubbish game!"
The long-haired and bearded man who suffered another failure felt a little bit broken at the moment. He was thrown to the ground by the guard and was lying on his back while cursing at the sky. His mood was quite unstable.
He cursed mainly because he felt that he was being targeted. This feeling became more and more obvious after he got a powerful ability to transform into various creatures due to a sudden burst of luck in a game. This time, he had reason to guess that the dungeon was deliberately trying to embarrass him and kill him. Otherwise, a player as good as him shouldn't have been so uncomfortable playing such a dungeon that meets the level. He couldn't get through it after being tormented by two difficult guards for several days.
"Boss... it was us who dragged you down..."
The male player next to him who was recovering from his injuries felt a little sad when he saw that his thigh was in abnormal condition. He thought that with this powerful player leading the team, he would be able to pass the level even if there were twists and turns along the way. Who knew that this dungeon was so tricky and stuck him at the last step, as well as the powerful thigh player, which made him feel that the hope of clearing this dungeon was very slim.
After all, this place is too difficult to find, and other players may take a long time to find it. Even if they find it, who can be stronger than this thigh? Even the thighs dare not confront those two guards, let alone other players.
Moreover, the two of them had spent so many days on this island, and the supplies they carried were almost exhausted. Not only would it be problematic to treat their injuries any longer, they would also not be able to replenish their physical strength. I am afraid they would have to go to the island to eat leaves and bark.
Just when these two players, who had been defeated repeatedly, felt a little discouraged, a sound of slightly faster footsteps came from the surrounding woods, attracting their attention.
The two reluctantly stood up from the ground and looked at the source of the sound. They found that it was a tall figure wearing a bamboo hat, walking quickly towards the central fruit tree. His appearance and behavioral intentions directly showed that he was also a player.
"Hey! You're here just in time! Draw the attention of the two guards with me! Let the boss find a chance to pick the fruit!"
The male player who was about to finish healing saw someone coming and immediately shouted to him. His idea was that the newcomer and he would attract the attention of a guard respectively, and then rely on the powerful long-haired and bearded man to pick the fruit with explosive speed. This was a relatively promising strategy.
But soon, he discovered that the new player looked a little indifferent. The other player, whose face could not be seen clearly in a bamboo hat, did not respond to his words. He did not even look at the two players who were already stuck in this level, and ran straight to the tall fruit tree guarded by two elemental guards in front.
"Haha... it's better to let this guy suffer a little loss first... otherwise he won't cooperate honestly."
Upon seeing this, the male player's face flashed a bit of a theatrical expression. He knew very well how difficult the two elemental guards in front were, and it couldn't be solved by just a strange guy wearing a hat.
Also holding the same mentality of watching the show is the long-haired and bearded player not far away. This player with good strength actually has a deeper feeling for the strength of the water element and the wind element in front of him. He has tried to fight these two things hard in the past few days, but the result was quite tragic. It took him a bottle of the most precious Healing Potion to recover, and two companions were injured and died. He was a little curious about whether this player who rushed up without saying a word as soon as he appeared was tortured and had enough medicine for treatment.
In the eyes of the two people watching the show, Wang Zhifan, who had just arrived here, had already rushed to Water Element Guardian and Wind Element Guardian. It was not that he had not heard the words of the player just now, but he had his own judgment. The high perception that other players could not imagine had already made him clear about the approximate strength of the first two elemental guards. Then he judged that there was no need to cooperate with others to solve an opponent of this level, and he could just use his own efforts.
Soon enough, when the two onlookers on the outside thought that Wang Zhifan was about to be caught and thrown back by the two guards, something unexpected happened to them. That is, they saw that the player wearing a bamboo hat did not rush directly to the tall fruit tree in front to try to pick fruits, but actively approached the two guards and launched an attack on them.
"Haha... a guy who overestimates his abilities..."
The long-haired and bearded player who originally expected Wang Zhifan to be thrown back by the guard suddenly wanted to laugh. He felt that this new player was a bit similar to him at first. He thought that he was very strong and could challenge the guard, but he didn't know that the attack on the guard would be much more severe than stealing fruit, and he couldn't bear it.
boom! At this time, the battle finally started.
I saw Wang Zhifan. The blue guard who stretched out his water arm in front of him and was about to attack him was frozen into a big ice block without warning. Then with a flash of the knife in his hand, the huge ice block was cut in half by him before it started falling downwards. The cross section revealed some kind of core that was also frozen, and then the guard's body quickly began to disintegrate.
After finishing an enemy with one blow, Wang Zhifan didn't pause at all. He then turned slightly and rushed towards Wind Element Guardian on the other side at an extremely fast speed. The opponent was sending out several violent whirlwinds to surround him, but he chose to rush over without dodging.
However, he charged straight up and seemed not to be affected by the whirlwind in front of him. He was neither hindered nor injured. He passed through the whirlwind issued by the enemy and approached him in the blink of an eye like a phantom.
Then suddenly a second identical figure appeared behind Wind Element Guardian. This figure slashed open Wind Element Guardian's body made of strong wind with a sharp knife. The light of the knife broke through the core of a certain Invisibility surrounded by hurricanes. At the same time, a large amount of thunder exploded from the blade, completely destroying this Wind Element Guardian.
"My day!"
"Fuck me!"
Two unbelievable screams sounded almost at the same time as the guards were wiped out. At this moment, both the Assassin player and the long-haired, bearded and thighy player were shocked. They couldn't believe that the two guards who had been stuck with them for several days and tortured them so much were so devastated by someone's sword every second.
When the two people were in shock and couldn't say anything except swear words, Wang Zhifan himself didn't feel anything special. In his opinion, he just dealt with two enemies who might hinder him a little more seriously. Then he quickly sheathed his sword and walked towards the tall fruit tree to take a close look at the sea-blue fruits on it.
