I'm Not Targeting Anyone in Particular
Inside the cold cabin.
Everyone remained silent.
As the gyroplane slowly rose, a tremendous noise erupted.
Before long, it stopped at another location, and a large number of people poured in from outside.
The cabin was even more crowded.
Roger instinctively moved a little further inside.
As a result, I bumped into a soft, muscular body from behind.
"Captain, I'm sorry..."
Roger himself was startled.
Fortunately, Eve kindly patted him on the shoulder:
"It's okay, it's normal for newcomers to be nervous the first time."
"Don't worry, I'm here."
"This isn't the first time those Jackalmen down there have caused trouble..."
Her voice was soft.
But the sound could be heard throughout the entire cabin.
Among the group that had just surged in, a burly man interrupted rudely, saying, "This time the situation is different!"
"I heard that the evil spirits have evolved again. Maybe this time they've possessed the Jackalmen?"
These words were spoken.
The atmosphere in the cabin became slightly uneasy.
Eve glared at him with displeasure.
The burly man snorted coldly and said nothing more.
that's all.
The gyroplane took off and landed three times, until the cabin was completely filled, before slowly descending into the deep pit.
Roger leaned against the cabin wall.
His body was almost pressed tightly against Eve's.
The latter was wearing a uniform.
However, his complexion looked somewhat strange.
But Roger's mind wasn't on how to get information out of the sorceress.
The information scrolling through the data bar made him feel preoccupied.
"This way of explaining..."
"The system must have detected something that I wasn't aware of."
"Either there are a lot of traitors in Drovas's camp..."
"Either... there's a major problem with this faction itself!"
He recalled the woman who was killed at the edge of the deep pit and the request from the Sea Serpent Queen.
Roger had a vague feeling that beneath Drovas's glamorous exterior lay...
It may be hiding something disgusting.
This thought came to mind.
He decisively chose the "Third Party"!...
"Hint: Congratulations on joining the Third Party faction. In this battle, almost everyone is your enemy. Be careful not to expose your identity."
"Third Party: You have obtained the Third Party privilege ' Universal Malicious Targeting '"
"Universal Malicious Targeting: When you kill any unit belonging to ' Drovas ' or ' Underground Jackal People ', it will have the same effect as a ' Malicious Targeting Ticket '."
See here.
Roger was overjoyed!
"This is too ruthless! Not only did it save me Milestone Points, but it's also a full-scale AOE attack..."
"Is this what they call 'I'm not targeting anyone in particular'?"
"Yes, targeting everything is essentially the same as not targeting anything..."
In a short time.
Roger's thoughts were racing.
The data bar continued to display changes.
As Third Party in the campaign mission.
In addition to his "privileges," Roger was also given a "flaw."
"Weakness: If your Third Party identity is discovered, the campaign mission will automatically terminate and all rewards for this Campaign Mode will be forfeited."
There was no punishment.
But canceling the benefits is painful enough in itself.
This means that Roger must not be discovered by anyone.
otherwise...
"The only option is to kill everyone who finds them..."
Roger thought to himself:
"Although we are prepared to Slaughter Ascension, we must retain some humanity unless absolutely necessary..."
The existence of the "flaw" makes this campaign mission different from the past.
Roger had to be careful with every move.
He suddenly felt a thrill, like he had played Werewolf in a past life.
Looking at the gentle and charming married female sorceress beside him.
Roger forcibly restrained his desires...
He really wanted to know what attributes this strike would grant.
But he knew.
I can't do that! "Perhaps..."
"This is a test of my humanity."
That's what he thought.
Immediately afterwards.
The task panel now displays selectable tasks unique to Third Party.
Optional Task 1: Balance of Power
"Requirement: Maintain a balance of power between the two factions throughout the war."
Note: After accepting the mission, you will be able to see the Combat Power Ratio of both factions.
"Optional Mission Two: Ceasefire"
"Requirement: During the duration of the war, reduce the number of participants on both sides to a level insufficient to launch even a small-scale battle."
Note: A small-scale battle is defined as one in which the total number of participants on both sides is between 1,000 and 10,000.
Optional Mission Three: Decapitation
"Requirement: During the war, kill the leaders of both factions."
Note: The leader of the Underground Jackal People is ' King Big Ding '; the leader of Drovas is ' Sentry King Mobolei '.
The rewards for all three optional missions are "unknown".
But in the style of the system.
The things they give out shouldn't be too bad.
The choice has already been made.
How could I not do the tasks?
It doesn't matter if we fail, there's no punishment anyway.
With that in mind.
Roger accepted all three missions at once.
After doing all this.
He let out a long sigh of relief.
It just so happens at this time.
The gyroplane came to a stop, and a cold voice came from the front cabin. "We've reached the 20th platform!"
"Members of the Iris Club... you only have 30 seconds!"
The group of people involuntarily pushed their way out.
In this process.
People from other clubs didn't seem very willing to cooperate.
They got stuck outside, causing a lot of trouble for the people of the Iris.
Before Eve could have an attack.
Roger charged forward like a bull! Under his Extraordinary Strength of 22 points without armor.
These seemingly mighty and strong men were actually as weak as a flock of little lambs!
In an instant.
Roger led the twenty-odd burly men outside the gyroplane! "What the hell are you doing?"
Some people, angered by Roger's collision, seemed to be looking for trouble.
"It's about to leave."
Roger pointed to the gyroplane and said.
The man grumbled and cursed as he quickly reboarded the plane.
But most people looked at Roger with more caution.
This included more than 30 members of the Iris Flower group who successfully followed them out.
Before.
Some people secretly mocked the profession of "Quickdraw Gunslinger".
But after this action...
No one dared to underestimate Roger's strength.
Many of his companions were secretly observing this newcomer.
Eve, however, didn't seem too surprised.
She rallied the group and led them into the cave inside the platform—
The Deep Pit Mine consists of layers of construction platforms and countless intricate underground tunnels.
Interference from some mysterious force.
Gyrocopters and large sentry planes can only reach areas around the 25th floor at most.
Continue down.
Only ordinary sentries or club members can be effective.
This is the "monster uprising".
Eve's mission is to protect the workers on floors 20 to 24.
Regarding this kind of thing.
Drovas has a very comprehensive set of countermeasures. As soon as the underground alarm sounds, the trained workers drop everything and run to the corresponding mine Safe Zone.
There.
They can at least hold off the monsters for a while.
Once the Monster Cleanup team arrives, the trouble will be easily resolved.
And now.
The group from the Iris Club were headed for the Safe Zone located on the 20th floor!
In the dark cave.
Two wanderers had already broken away from the main group and rushed ahead towards the Safe Zone.
The rest of the people continued moving at a steady pace.
The 20-story underground mine tunnels are actually a very long distance from the surface.
Apart from the glowing moss.
There is no light here.
The Cowas People traditionally use expensive light Elemental Bottle for lighting.
However, in smaller battlegrounds like the Iris, the "Wizard Torch," popular in Quinan, remains the most practical weapon.
The light emitted by this spell is soft, and the chances of startling monsters in the dark are lower.
now.
The six Wizard Torch in the procession illuminated everything inside the cave.
Everyone was quiet.
They all maintained a high degree of vigilance on their faces.
The slightest breeze or rustling sound can attract their attention.
These details demonstrate that this team possesses a high level of combat prowess.
"If I were on Drovas's side, then Iris would indeed be a trustworthy team."
"It's just a pity..."
"The mole was myself..."
Just as Roger was considering how to escape from the group...
In the dark tunnel.
A dense chorus of footsteps sounded.
"They're Jackalmen!"
A skilled swordsman with keen senses alerted the situation.
Eve's response was decisive. "Kill them all!"
The next second.
Multicolored lights illuminated the darkness.
The spellcasters prepared their spells.
The others also raised their standard-issue crossbows.
But he knocked down the first Jackalmen.
But it was the gunshot that echoed for a long time in the cave!
Bang! Bang! Bang! In the blink of an eye.
Roger fired 12 shots! Every shot drew blood!
On the data panel.
"You killed 1 Jackal People Minion your total number of Jackal People Minion kills to 9."
"Notice: ' Universal Malicious Targeting ' is in effect."
"You have obtained 8 Strength Shard (In Third Party factions, every 1000 attribute shards can be exchanged for 1 attribute point)."
"Why is it power again?"
Roger complained, a little greedily.
The next second.
Ten armored Jackalmen howled and charged out of the cave.
Behind them.
It was hundreds of "Jackal People Minion"!...
"Hint: You have encountered ' Jackal People Elite '"
Roger's heart skipped a beat.
While the two sides were still quite far apart.
He quickly removed the "Emerald Zephyr" from his back.
Then, feign a draw of the bow.
It shot out suddenly!
Whoosh! A Zephyr Arrow mercilessly pierced the forehead of the Jackal People Elite.
The next moment.
Under a barrage of colorful spells and crossbow bolts.
The two sides clashed.
Roger glanced at the data panel when he had a moment.
"You have killed one Jackal People Elite."
You have obtained 1 Agility Shard.
See here.
Roger couldn't help but beam with joy! "Finally, Agile has arrived?"
"I almost forgot that agility is my second attribute!"
The next moment.
Roger quickly drew his bow and arrow.
They aimed at a Jackal People Elite who was fighting his comrades!
But before he could even make a move...
A dazzling magical light illuminated the entire cave, and a rainbow-like ray instantly pierced through the chest of the Jackal People Elite!
That was Eve's "Seven-Colored Spray"! Roger quickly marked it with a Hunter's Mark and detonated it.
The next moment.
The bodies of the Jackal People Elite were assimilated into a seven-colored, glazed hue.
With a muffled thud, the Jackalmen, as beautiful as seven-colored glass, shattered into pieces.
On the data panel.
There was no notification.
Roger sighed deeply.
At this point...
He suddenly realized what "Third Party" meant! "I can't piggyback on their attributes anymore..."
"Then I can only... make sure no one steals my monsters!"
I adjusted my emotions.
Roger began frantically drawing his bow and shooting arrows!
Inside the cave.
A series of popping sounds came from inside.
That was the high-frequency sound of Zephyr Arrow.
