After the explosive friendly competition between the history department and the mecha department, Xiao Zhi's life has not changed much. Except that he has a lot of friends who can't tell who is who, and there are always people who ask him for missions or dungeons. outside.

The Hesse side has been going very smoothly recently, and the number of new documents is also very small. If it hadn't been accumulated for hundreds of years, the job of a clerk would actually be very idle.

Xiao Zhi promoted Milton so that he could hand over some documents to him naturally.

I have to say, Milton is really a talent. Not only is he rich in political experience and smooth in dealing with things, but because he is already a lich, he does not need to rest and will not die. What is 996? It is not a problem for him to be 007 every day.

It can be said that Milton is the kind of employee who works for his dreams and is the ideal employee template in the boss's mind.

If Milton had not been interested in the position of secretary at all, and Asen, as a lord, did not care who was more suitable to be secretary, Xiao Zhi felt that there was a high probability that his position would not be guaranteed.

Thanks to Hessen's casual corporate culture.

During this time, Asen was still not in Hesse, and no one knew why he was there.

Xiao Zhi felt that if Brace knew about this, he would be extremely happy and would be ready to launch an attack every minute. But unfortunately, their second and fifth boys had been eliminated by Xiao Zhi in advance.

Life was so comfortable that Xiao Zhi couldn't help but ignite the small flame of restlessness in his heart.

I really want to find something to do.

He thought about his Soul Chaser. Although the Soul Chaser was relatively easy to use at the moment, it was only a level 140 weapon after all. As his level continued to increase, it would definitely become more and more incompetent.

Xiao Zhi asked Da Zhuangzhuang: "How many more materials are needed to upgrade the Soul Chaser?"

Da Zhuangzhuang picked his chin: "Now we already have Absa Flame Crystal and Soul Fire Crystal. If we find the Resentment of the Dead again, I will It's time to start improving to the intermediate level."

Xiao Zhi: "Intermediate level?"

Da Zhuangzhuang nodded his furry head: "Boss, the Soul Chaser in your hand has only completed the elementary level. After it is upgraded to the intermediate level, its strength will be about It will double, and it will double again when it reaches a high level. If you smelt some rare materials, it may be even better."

Xiao Zhi thought about this doubling and then doubling, feeling like a little kitten in his heart. It's like scratching him gently with furry little paws, which makes people unable to control themselves.

Xiao Zhi couldn't hide his excitement and opened his address book, wanting to see if any players would take advantage of this thing. Anyway, he was a rich man now and had no shortage of money.

Unfortunately, no, there are quite a few people wanting to buy it.

There are countless experiences of being deceived, and more than half of them are feats committed by the Xiyue Clan. These posts eventually turned into a competition among victims of the Xiyue Clan.

Xiao Zhi could only continue to ask Da Zhuangzhuang: "Where can I find the resentment of the dead?"

Da Zhuangzhuang thought while picking his feet: "It will be easier to appear in a place where a person dies with resentment, the more people die. , the stronger the resentment before death, the easier it is to appear."

Xiao Zhi searched the forum based on such clues, and after a while, he locked on a location - Borderlands.

As a chaotic area on the continent of Dazemenya that borders all the forces, it is unknown how many lives have been buried here. Many famous kings and strong men ended up here with hatred. Some of them were assassinated, some were betrayed, and some were beheaded by their sworn enemies.

There are also many unknown people who come here to take risks. Some are looking forward to getting rich, and some are looking forward to finding a strong inheritance to start a new life. However, they end up dying from accidents, companions, competitors or various black forces. hand.

There are countless people in Borderlands who have died with resentment.

The Borderlands is a large area, comparable to a country, and there are many swamps in it. It is definitely not a good idea to rush over and search for it.

Xiao Zhi continued to search for information and finally focused on the bone burial ground of Nafa.

This is the place where Nafa, the last monarch of the Todli dynasty, and his men finally died in battle.

Nafa was a cruel king. Under his rule, the people of the Todri Dynasty were living in hell on earth. Finally, the unbearable people broke out, and they resisted regardless of the cost, and finally drove Nafa to the land of no one.

After a brutal and difficult battle, Nafa was finally killed by the then rebel leader.

His bloody-handed subordinates were all executed by the angry rebels, and their bodies were discarded where they were, leaving them exposed in the wilderness to be eaten by swamp creatures and scavengers.

The resentment that Nafa and the soldiers had before their death lingered for a long time, and fermented here, gradually spreading into a realm of death.

Many years later, the wraith of Nafa woke up. He took his gloomy army of undead to occupy a piece of land, continued to be his king, and would try to devour all creatures that came near here.

This piece of land occupied by them is called the Nafa Boneyard. The system does not prohibit players from entering and exploring it, but exploration is very dangerous and the consequences are at your own risk.

Xiao Zhi closed the address book: "This is it."

Stepping

out of the teleportation array, Xiao Zhi saw the unique gray sky of Borderlands.

The sky is always covered with thick dark clouds, as if a heavy rain is brewing at any time, making the entire Borderlands look depressing and dull.

Everyone within sight is wearing a dark or light gray or black cloak. There is no color, because no one here wants to be special and attract others' attention.

Too much attention equals danger, this is one of the unspoken rules of walking in the Borderlands.

There are various dilapidated tents around, some sell suspicious materials, some sell medicines, and some just have a crack inside, which is dark inside. Visitors need to explore by themselves, but without knowing the inside story, It's better not to enter easily.

This area belongs to the commercial street of Borderlands. It is almost all tents and there are only a few stone houses, which looks very sloppy.

This is also a characteristic of Borderlands, where it is difficult to see fixed buildings. Because a fixed building is like a target, not only eye-catching but also immovable. Unless it is a particularly powerful force, no one will dare to build a building here.

Since the Borderlands is a chaotic zone, dangers are definitely inevitable. The dangers from the natural environment may not be higher than those in Hesse, but the greatest danger actually comes from people. Everyone who enters the Borderlands with their own intentions.

Naturally, Xiao Zhi had already put on his cloak. He lowered his head slightly, letting the cloak cover his face, and then quietly looked around.

There were many people around him looking at him, and each line of sight seemed to have a different meaning, but no one took the initiative to step forward, and no one spoke. The atmosphere was tense and silent.

Xiao Zhi said nothing and walked forward naturally, out of everyone's sight.

Seeing that he had a leisurely posture and showed no signs of panic, it seemed that he was not a fat sheep coming here for the first time. People who had originally looked at him withdrew their gaze and continued to do their own things.

Xiao Zhi moved all the way towards the location of the burial ground. Borderland was a bit like Heisen. The public teleportation array could only reach the periphery.

But the difference is that there are internal teleportation arrays and transportation methods here, but most of them are in the hands of the black forces here. Using these teleportation arrays rashly may be more dangerous than walking.

In the Borderlands, traveling in a cloak is the safest way of transportation, and it's best not to show off your mount.

Along the way, there were many monsters attacking Xiao Zhi, including swamp trolls, ice hydralisks, stone puppets, awakened corpses... Even plants that were originally peaceful on the roadside might suddenly open their mouths and launch a surprise attack.

A half-rotten corpse of an orc suddenly emerged from the swamp and attacked Xiao Zhi.

Xiao Zhi casually threw out a string of fireballs to kill it.

This is probably a former adventurer who died here. Affected by the environment, the corpse begins to move again, but it is not considered undead, because the awakened corpse has no consciousness, only the desire to attack and the instinct to kill.

Da Zhuangzhuang stepped forward to check and reported back: "Reporting to the boss, nothing gained."

Xing Zhi was really poor, so Xiao Zhi could only move on with regret.

After walking for a while, Xiao Zhi passed a silent lake. It is said to be a lake, but in fact it may be more appropriate to say that it is a pool of stagnant water. The water is dark green, covered with gray-black algae, and exudes an unpleasant smell at all.

Xiao Zhi glanced at the calm water, turned around and planned to move on.

Suddenly, there was the sound of water splashing behind him.

Xiao Zhi was attracted by the sound and turned around to look, and saw a pair of hands suddenly stretched out from the edge of the lake. Those hands were struggling hard, but vines kept stretching out from the water, trying to drag him back into the water.

After struggling for a while, the owner of the hand finally showed his head. He breathed heavily and gained a brief life.

The man's eyes swept across the shore and found Xiao Zhi who was looking at him. His eyes burst out with hope and he quickly shouted at Xiao Zhi: "Help! Help!!!"

His The voice was sharp, shouting at the top of his lungs, almost breaking his voice.

At this moment, the vines under the water entangled him again, dragging his barely exposed head down.

The man was anxious and stretched out his hand desperately towards Xiao Zhi: "Save, save...ahem...life..."

Xiao Zhi was unmoved. The second unspoken rule of Borderland - put away your useless of compassion.

In Borderlands, everything that moves may attack you, and everything that speaks may lie to you. Whether it is injury, life or death, or even death, there is a high probability that there is a carefully planned plot behind it. scam.

Xiao Zhi's tone was as calm as if he was rejecting a flyer on the road: "Sorry, I can't swim. You'd better wait for the next one. You're dead anyway, so it doesn't matter if you wait a little longer."

"Goodbye." Xiao Zhi finished. He left leisurely.

The thing in the water: "..."

Is there anyone who chats with people like this? What does "you're dead anyway" mean? Do you know that it's better to expose someone than to expose someone's shortcomings? !

Oh, living people.

Da Zhuangzhuang quietly praised Xiao Zhi: "Boss, your back is so cold, like a big pig's hoof that refuses to save you!"

Xiao Zhi: "..."

Shut up.

·

Xiao Zhi and Da Zhuangzhuang continued to advance in the Borderless Land and gradually approached the burial ground.

The closer you get, the colder the surroundings feel. The trees here look half-dead, and there is a faint green mist lingering in the air. This is a sign that death and resentment have polluted the environment.

If a living person stays in such mist for a long time, the body will be eroded and gradually weaken. It manifests itself as a negative state of "haunted by death" on the player. Each layer of "haunted by death" will weaken the player's defense by 1%. When the number of layers is high, the player will start to lose blood, which needs to be dispelled with special potions.

Fortunately, Xiao Zhi currently only has one level of buff, so he doesn't need to drink medicine yet.

There was a dead silence in the burial ground, filled with a heart-stopping sense of danger. Xiao Zhi's boots made a slight sound when he stepped on the dead branches and leaves on the ground. He tried to keep the sound of his footsteps to a minimum and moved forward carefully.

Suddenly, there was a burst of sound in the air, which was very obvious in the silent environment, as if something was approaching at high speed.

Xiao Zhi looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a mutilated head flying past him. The head was half rotten, and its mouth was still wide open, looking extremely ferocious.

It's the head of the corpse.

The incision on the head was flat and should have been cut off by a sharp blade. This was an awakened corpse of the rhinoceros tribe. The bones were much harder than humans. The guy who could cut it off in one go probably had a very strong attack power.

Xiao Zhi looked towards the direction where the head flew. Is there anyone fighting with the awakened corpse?

At this time, the sound of footsteps gradually came from the dead forest in the distance, as well as the sound of sharp blades piercing the air, and the howls of common monsters in the Borderlands such as waking corpses and swamp trolls.

Every sound that broke through the air was accompanied by a monster's wail, as if these things could not hinder his progress at all.

The man was approaching Xiao Zhi at a very fast speed.

Borderlands does not have the traditional virtue of greeting passers-by in a friendly manner. On the one hand, when two people meet, they either compete with each other and plot against each other, or they avoid each other tacitly to avoid conflicts. No one wants to have a peer friendship, because it is no different from luring a wolf into the house.

Xiao Zhi came here to find materials, and naturally he didn't want to waste time on fighting with others. Anyway, he had nothing to gain now, so it wouldn't be good to retreat.

He simply stepped back and hid in another forest to avoid the intruder.

Xiao Zhi had just hid, and figures gradually appeared in the dark woods. First, a foot wrapped in black combat boots stepped out, then slender legs, a body wearing black light armor, and - a head of platinum silver hair.

Xiao Zhi felt his heart skip a beat. Damn it, why is it Asen? !

Asen did not wear the black armor today, but replaced it with light armor that was easier to move. This made his movements more agile. When he slashed with the sword... the victim also seemed to be in more pain.

Xiao Zhi pressed his little heart. Fortunately, fortunately, he hid in advance. It would be so exciting if the Hessian lord was caught off guard and found out that his secretary was an Athanasi.

He didn't know whether Asen felt it was exciting. Anyway, Xiao Zhi was quite exciting.

Xiao Zhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Asen's progress suddenly stopped. He happened to be standing near where Xiao Zhi was standing just now. His platinum-gold eyes swept around, and suddenly looked straight towards Xiao Zhi's hiding place!

Then, he frowned, held a sword in one hand, and walked towards this side with his legs raised.

At the same time, those platinum-gold eyes glowed with cold light and locked onto the area where Xiao Zhi was, like a predator eyeing its prey.

Xiao Zhi is going crazy.

How did Asen discover him? Well, Ah Sen is a super boss, so it's normal to have stronger fighting instincts. Moreover, Xiao Zhi originally thought that he was an adventurer, so he just made a retreat gesture to show that he didn't want to have a conflict. He didn't hide too far, and it was useless. Use camouflage.

But now it's too late to use camouflage in this posture.

Before Xiao Zhi's spellcasting was completed, Asen would definitely be able to walk in front of him, and the camouflage spell had no damage reduction effect. If Asen wanted to stab him with a sword, he would still be injured, and then show up and wait for death.

Many thoughts were spinning rapidly in Xiao Zhi's mind.

How about changing to a face that Asen has never seen before and pretending to be an innocent passerby? But in this case, according to tradition, Asen may send him back to the resurrection point with a sword. Xiao Zhi is here to find materials. After death, he will be weak and can do nothing.

Or teleport? He finally got here, does he have to start all over again?

Seeing Asen getting closer and closer, Xiao Zhixin made a choice.

Might as well take a gamble.

He signaled Da Zhuangzhuang to go back to sleep in the hammer, then quickly took off his cloak, put on Hesse's secretary uniform, and then activated the Dead Soul Crystal.

Now, he is just a Hessian civil servant who comes out to fish during working hours.

If you catch a fish, you won't be beaten to death, right?

Frost was already close to Xiao Zhi's hiding spot and heard the slight movement from behind the woods. His voice was cold: "Come out."

Then he was slightly stunned. Unexpectedly, what floated out from the woods was his new boss. Clerk.

When I was skipping work, I ran into a subordinate who was skipping work. Hessen's corporate culture is so exciting.

Xiao Zhi saluted him: "Lord."

Frost was very calm when facing his subordinates who skipped work. After all, he was the one who took the lead in skipping work and had been doing so for hundreds of years.

He asked: "What are you doing here?"

Xiao Zhi replied calmly: "Exploration... I want to find some materials."

Frost: "Are you the only one?"

Xiao Zhi nodded.

There was no expression on Frost's face. He glanced at Xiao Zhi and said, "Follow me."

After saying that, he turned around and left. His silver hair drew a beautiful arc in the air and fluttered slightly with his movements. .

Xiao Zhi did not expect that the incident of skipping work would be resolved so easily, and that A Sen might not even mind that his subordinate skipped work. But... what does Asen mean? Why bring a secretary? Write him a daily note?

Seeing that the clerk did not follow him, Frost looked back and said nothing.

Xiao Zhi hurriedly followed up. Although A Sen's face was expressionless, it seemed that he was trying to show off his experience!

Are Hesse's welfare so good?

·

On ​​the way, Frost reluctantly asked his subordinates: "What are you looking for?"

Xiao Zhi: "I am going to go to the burial ground to look for the resentment of the dead."

Frost's tone remained unchanged: "Just Are you the only one?"

Xiao Zhi somehow sensed a hint of disgust, what's wrong with him? If you ask the Athanasi people, who doesn't know the reputation of the black robe fire magic? People queuing up to call him daddy can circle the whole continent of Zemenya together.

And he also "backstabbed" the Hessian Lord!

...Forget it, it's better not to let Asen know.

But in an instant, Xiao Zhi remembered his identity at the moment - secretary, the only civil servant in the palace of terror, who looked particularly fragile in comparison with the boss-level knight captain colleagues.

If it were placed in Xiao Zhi's era, it would probably be as ridiculous as the boss finding out that his secretary, who sat in the office all day reading documents and playing with his dog, suddenly went to a war-torn area to work as a mercenary one day, right?

Thinking about it this way, Ah Sen was really good at restraining himself from ridiculing him...

Xiao Zhi swore that this was definitely not the fault of his friend's filter.

Frost did not laugh at his secretary's overestimation. He continued to move forward: "Just in time, I also want to find that method."

Xiao Zhi thought that the two of you still had friendship, so he asked casually: "What do you have? Is it something?"

Frost: "It's okay. I just want to kill him and steal his sword soul."

Xiao Zhi: "..."

What about the fateful friendship? Boss, you are really awesome...

Frost led the way all the way.

Due to his civil servant persona, Xiao Zhi could only be a lonely melon-eater, watching his boss slash a child, as if he was cutting cabbage instead of dangerous monsters in Borderlands.

As he walked, Xiao Zhi's experience steadily increased.

Xiao Zhi never expected that he had always enveloped others, but now he would actually experience the joy of being a trumpet. Don't mention it, it feels good to gain experience. No wonder so many people shout "Auntie, I don't want to struggle anymore" all day long.

Because being the boss was so awesome, Xiao Zhi, the younger brother, had nothing to do. He looked at Asen's back in front of him, his thoughts gradually drifting away.

Sometimes it was about things in the past, sometimes it was about players' discussions about the Hessian Lord, and then somehow, his thoughts took a big turn and drifted towards the "backstab" in Dana's tomb... ...

Xiao Zhi's eyes couldn't help but move down with his thoughts, and he felt a little complicated for a moment.

In front of him, Frost paused slightly in his sword swing. Of course he felt the sight from behind him as sharply as he could. What on earth was going on with this scribe? He is really courageous.

Xiao Zhi suddenly felt a chill on his body, and at the same time a murderous aura came from the front. It was so cold, as if the door of the Athanasian Realm was slightly open to welcome him.

He slowly raised his head and saw the cold platinum eyes in front of him.

Oops... I was too focused on staring at someone's buttocks and got caught.

Life and death seem to happen in an instant.

With the psychological quality that he has been fighting in the world for many years, Xiao Zhi quickly calmed down. In this situation, whoever gives in first will be embarrassed, so he decided to take a preemptive strike shamelessly.

Xiao Zhi nodded gently with a polite smile: "What can I do for you?"

His attitude was gentle and his tone was gentle, as if nothing happened just now, which makes people shameless and invincible.

Frost suddenly didn't know what to say: "..."

What could he say? Could it be that the sight of his new subordinate was about to burn through his pants?

How about giving him a sword...
