Chapter 6: Skeleton Xiaobai
By the river, as the sun set, Akai and I filled all our bowls with clear water and walked together to the cave. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoOn the other side of the river, I saw a relatively large flat land, which was not very steep on all sides, and with a little rest, I could get a large flat piece of land.
Back in the cave, I picked up the flint and steel in my hand and lit a second bonfire. Because the bowl cannot be burned in the stove, it can only be placed on top of the bonfire with sticks, so the water can be boiled much faster by two campfires than the single one. Set up the second campfire on the other side so that it can be warm enough, the cave is cold at night.
The sheep that provided us with food left only a little wool, and Akai and I slept with a cushion on the back of our heads to block the hard floor.
"Well, should we go out and explore tonight, we can still beat one or two mobs." Treat the zombie skeletons in our minds as if it were a game, and we're not too scared anymore, but we still keep a certain safe distance. And these monsters still look very cute.,Once you accept this setting.。
"Then we're going to have to make more weapons tonight, especially long-range ones." Akai removed a bowl of boiling water, set it aside to cool, and said to me.
"Well, we don't seem to have any long-range things, except for stone spears. But the stone spear is more suitable for melee combat, because the length is long enough, so you don't have to worry about being too close to the zombies, and besides, I have a hunch that when we upgrade to level 1, there will be major discoveries. I pushed my glasses.
"Soga, then let's hurry up and prepare, tonight we will sweep away the monsters around the cave."
"Okay, I'll go make some more stone swords." I got up and walked over to the workbench.
"It's a stone sword for Mao again, I don't want to throw the sword out!!" Holding his head in his hands, Akai shook wildly.
"Pick it up when you're done haha." replied with a smile.
Since there are not too many things for the time being, I don't make boxes to put things under our back packaging.
In this way, we waited for the night to come, and the only thing we could believe was our teammates except the weapons in our hands.
When the sun was finally completely silent below the horizon and the moon rose from the other end, I noticed that the moon seemed to be a little fuller today than it was yesterday, and if it continued like this, it would be a full moon in a short time, and I didn't know what would happen to the full moon in this world, but I already had some speculation in my mind.
I told Akai what I was thinking about, and we agreed that there was a good chance that something like a monster might be enhanced.
In other words, before the full moon, we were going to build a home with enough fortifications, and I think I could solve this with a moat, and I could also put a stone fence around the house to keep most of the zombies out.
Finally, the moon hung high and the sky was full of stars, and we took up our weapons, got up and walked out of the cave.
Outside, there were already several zombies wandering around the grassland, but at this moment, these zombies were all walking in the same direction.
"Hey, isn't there anything strange about this situation, the zombies are so strange."
"It's weird, no, look over there!" I exclaimed, gesturing to a figure not far to the left.
The snow-white figure stood on the grassland, and its silent roar attracted the surrounding zombies to surround it, as if to protect it like the stars of the zombies. The bone-covered hand held a wooden bow and arrow, which was worn out, but judging from the tightness of the bowstring, the arrow from this bow could penetrate a small tree twenty meters away. On the back of the back is a simple quiver, not to mention more than forty arrows in it.
While we were hesitating, several zombies scattered around had surrounded and protected the skeleton archers.
"Although this is very unscientific, it is not without a solution." I crouched in the grass and chatted with Akai, who was also squatting.
"What's the solution? Even if we can kill those 4 zombies now, our weapons are pretty much the same, and I don't have the confidence to be able to block the arrows, it's not human! Akai looked depressed.
"Do you remember what kind of attributes the skeleton Xiaobai in our game is, if we stand in front of the zombies, and behind the zombies is the skeleton archers, then the skeleton archers will not bypass the zombies and shoot arrows at us, but will shoot directly at the zombies." I said something that touched me deeply. "And the most important point is that if there are two skeleton whites, as long as you find a way to make one of them accidentally injure the other, then the two skeleton archers will fight!"
Pushing my glasses, I said the fact that such an undead creature is an intelligent chicken.
"Okay, what do we do now?" Lifting the sword, Akai was ready to attack.
"We just need to keep an eye on the movement and keep the zombies in front of the skeleton archers." "Okay."
So, Akai and I crouched cautiously forward, forty meters, thirty meters, and when we reached the throwing range, I gave instructions to Akai: "There are four zombies and one skeleton archer, let's make two zombies fall to the ground first, and then move so that the skeleton archer remains behind the zombies, and then slowly solve them." "Understood!" Akai agreed, ready to throw.
"One, two, three! Above! With a low shout, we threw the sword out at the same time, hitting the two zombies standing on the side of it, that is, the zombies on the left and right. Because these four zombies surrounded the skeleton archers, one was in front of the skeleton archers and one was behind, and we couldn't hit them.
In an instant, the skeleton archer reacted and shot an arrow in our direction, but unfortunately because of the IQ problem, it hit the zombie who helped it block the knife in front of it, and the zombie screamed and spun around to see what was hitting it, but ignored the skeleton archer. Maybe in the simple consciousness of the zombies, the skeleton archer is of the same kind and will not harm it.
So, Akai and I watched speechlessly as the zombie with an arrow stuck in its head jumped around in place.
"It seems that there is no need for us to be so cautious, the IQ gap is too big, and the tactics are not good." The corners of my mouth twitched slightly.
"On the top floor."
There's nothing more to say about the rest, and after watching the skeleton archer kill the zombies in its way with one arrow at a time, half of the arrows in its quiver are gone. Because the skeleton archer is a skeleton of bones, it is impossible to draw the bow to the fullest, so shooting twenty meters is already counting the distance of the parabola. We were out of range, holding stone swords and playing throwing games with it. Due to the distance, the arrows fired by the skeleton archer are only very easy to dodge, and it does not fire very fast, taking about 5 seconds to shoot an arrow.
After 5 minutes, when the quiver behind the skeleton archer has been completely emptied, it is also the so-called feng shui turn.
"Hehe, sample, no arrows." Akai patted the two stone swords in his left and right hands, and smiled cheaply.
"Well, it's really sleepy to send pillows, these arrows and this bow are just right for you to use as your ranged professional." I quipped, "But these arrows only seem to be hard enough, but the arrows are made of stone, so they don't seem to be very lethal, and if you don't take care of them, they may break when you shoot them." I picked up an arrow, held it in front of me, and carefully molded it.
Packing things up, four zombies and a skeleton archer have contributed a lot of money, and Akai and I have both been upgraded to level 1 and captured a wooden bow and some arrows, which is really gratifying. I picked up a few bones left behind by the skeletal archer's death and disappeared to the ground, white bones, full of texture to the touch, and made a crisp sound when struck on the stone.
Due to the limited energy, we have no intention of continuing, because we are very tired just collecting resources during the day, especially in the battle just now, and we have almost used up our energy. Actually, the battle just now didn't last long, and after clearing the four zombies, it only took about 10 minutes to dodge the arrows fired by the skeleton archers.
One zombie was killed by a skeleton archer, and the remaining three, we can do it by throwing stone swords, and then wait for them to get up from the ground, continue to throw and knock down, and repeat it a few times.
After cleaning up the loot, we returned to the cave and began to count the resources in our hands.
