[Collecting beetles to hatch, estimated time: 380 seconds]

In the desert, where the ground is full of traces of the aftermath of the battle, Windfall stands next to the corpse of the three-meter-tall leader of the desert stone lizard, waiting for the new beetle to hatch. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although the gains in this battle were very expensive, the losses were also very heavy.

Not long after it was formed, the "army" of beetles that had not yet been fully formed was directly damaged, and in addition to one mutated scout beetle, there were only four blade beetles and two jet beetles left.

Therefore, in the face of the body of the commander-level desert stone lizard leader beside him, it was naturally impossible for Fengluo to waste it.

As for what beetles to hatch?

Blade beetle, jet beetle, or one of his steel beetles that has never hatched, but whose defense is even stronger than this desert stone lizard...... Undoubtedly, all three types of combat beetles are very good choices.

However, Fengluo's final decision seemed very unexpected, and he chose to use the corpse of this very rare commander-level desert stone lizard to hatch a gathering beetle.

Collecting beetles is undoubtedly the beetle with the lowest combat effectiveness among the seven species of beetles.

To be precise, it has little combat effectiveness!

In addition to gathering resources, its own pair of seemingly powerful pincers has actually very weak attack power, and a level 30 gathering beetle may not be the opponent of a level 15 ordinary monster in battle.

However, collecting beetles has the same irreplaceable role as other beetles, just like scout beetles.

In particular, this desert stone lizard is a level 38 leader monster, and using its corpse to hatch will have a certain chance of directly hatching a commander level gathering beetle!

Although the Commander-level gathering beetle also does not have much attack power, it has a special ability and skill compared to ordinary beetles, and it also has a very high HP.

Even if you don't hatch a commander-level gathering beetle, just hatch an elite-level gathering beetle, you won't suffer much.

Because the elite-level gathering beetle has the ability to fly for a short time, it is much stronger than the ordinary gathering beetle!

Actually, all seven beetle classes.

Both the Elite and Commander tiers are more powerful than the normal tier, and they also have additional abilities or skills!

But......

In that case, wouldn't it be better to hatch a combat "blade beetle" or "jet beetle" from the corpse of this desert lizard?

Actually, it's not that Fengluo doesn't want to hatch battle beetles.

Mainly because of a cliché problem, the total amount of ghost energy of 24K is not enough!

Although, on the system panel, the amount of ghost energy required to hatch a blade beetle is "50 points", but when the beetle is actually hatched for the first time, Fengluo discovers that there is actually a "trap" in the description of the system.

Because, in addition to the [Basic Ghost Energy] required for the beetle to hatch itself, the process of absorbing the "nutrients" of the monster's body during the hatching process also requires the consumption of [Additional Ghost Energy].

Moreover, this additional ghost energy is still determined by the type of beetle that hatches, as well as the level, size, combat power, and grade (normal, elite, and commandery) of the monster before death...... and other factors.

For only 50 points of basic ghost energy, it is indeed possible to hatch a blade beetle, but the blade beetle hatched in this way is only level 1, and the HP is only 50 points, so there is almost no combat power!

Only by spending extra spectral energy can the eggs absorb the nutrients in the monster's body during the hatching process, and directly obtain a higher level after birth.

For example, in the Wind Fall test, if a blade beetle hatches on the corpse of a level 40 ordinary wind wolf, it will cost a total of 90 (50+40) ghost energy, and it will hatch directly (level 20 normal)!

And if you hatch on the body of a level 40 elite swamp piranha, it will cost 150 (50+100) ghost energy points, and it will be hatched directly (level 30, normal), and there is even a certain chance that it will be directly (level 20, elite)!

If you hatch on the corpse of this desert lizard leader, it will cost a full 550 points (50+500) of ghost energy, which directly exceeds the current limit of 24K ghost energy.

24K is now level 29, and the total amount of ghost energy is only 490 points (10*29+100+100).

Because it only adds 10 spectral energy each time it levels up, but at level 10 and level 20, it adds an additional 100 points each.

According to this trend, to use this level 38 desert stone lizard to dominate and hatch the blade beetle, you need to wait at least until 24K is upgraded to level 30!

Of course, due to getting a rare ghost energy crystal today, although the current "evolution" of 24K has not been completely completed for the time being, Fengluo feels that once the evolution is completed, the total amount of ghost energy should increase to a certain extent.

However, he was not going to wait here, because although the corpses of the Commander Monster were few, it was not impossible to encounter them in the future.

And a gathering beetle that has the potential to reach the commander level, he is still quite looking forward to it!

……

Since it took more than six minutes to collect the beetles to hatch, Fengluo put away all the other beetles, leaving only 24K and a scout beetle outside, standing next to the corpse of the desert stone lizard leader.

At the same time, he shifted his perspective to the map forum of the Withered Desert.

Players can go to the forums, watch movies, or browse in the game without fighting or special missions.

However, he is not really on the forum for leisure, but for the next task.

The last two quest items in Lynn's quest, the fifth "Desert Lizard's Saliva Crystal", are in hand.

But the real trouble is actually the sixth - "desert fire ant eggs".

In the desert map, the most dangerous thing is not the lone monster like the desert stone lizard, but some small group monsters that seem to be of low level, but are extremely large in number.

The desert fire ant is a social monster, and it is a monster that is incredibly numerous.

Although the level is only 30, under normal circumstances, a nest contains thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of desert fire ants.

Even though most of them are worker ants that are not strong in combat and are similar to collecting beetles, under the threat of ants biting elephants, a small number of players will never dare to provoke them.

However, because there are enough large group monsters like this, although the experience and explosion rate of individual individuals are not very high.

However, with the accumulation of numbers, hitting a large desert fire ant nest is not even much worse than fighting a quasi-boss, or even the reward you get from the boss, so the attraction to players will not be low.

Therefore, some Scout players will specifically find the nest of this kind of group monster in the large map, and then set its address as a paid post for other players to pay to view and make money.

It's also a kind of gameplay.

And at this time, the wind is going to the forum to find this kind of post, and it is best to have a new post today.

"Huh?"

To Windfall's surprise, when he turned on the floating virtual screen of the Blighted Desert Regional Map Forum, he hadn't searched for the latest posts related to the Desert Fire Ants.

But I saw that the popularity was topped to the front row, and there was a free post just a few minutes ago.

[Provide the address of the desert fire ant nest for free, and people nearby will come quickly, and the fight will start soon!] 】

"Coordinates (2873,4887) location, found a medium-sized desert fire ant nest, because of the mission, the address is provided for free, everyone hurry up, first come, first served......"

"Directly announced for mission reasons? So generous! ”

Fengluo was a little puzzled in his heart, but, at least judging from the content of this poster, it doesn't look like a fake.

Because in the reply below, there are already players who have arrived at the address, beckoning people to go with them, and there are hundreds of replies in the post.

Although the Blighted Desert is not a popular leveling point, it can't stop the number of players in Stormwind City, a full fifteen million players, even if only one in 10,000 come here to level up, there are more than 10,000 people.

It's just because the Blighted Desert is so big that it's hard for players to meet each other.

"Well, perhaps, you can check it out! With so many people, even if the desert fire ant eggs are not hit, there should be others who can get them. ”

Fengluo thought about it, closed the forum under the sitting mark, and entered it in the terminal, and found that the target point displayed on the three-dimensional map was about fifty miles away from him.

"Not too far, huh?"

However, at this time, the reconnaissance beetle lying on the nearby sand dune suddenly passed through 24K and sent a warning signal to him with a "spirit link".

Fengluo looked up and saw that an energy off-road vehicle was driving out from behind a tall sand dune not far away, rolling up the yellow sand in the already darkened sky.

The most important thing is that the style of the car is very familiar to him.

The top-of-the-line C-10 energy off-road vehicle with a price of 200,000 credits is not easy to encounter a second vehicle in a leveling area like the Blighted Desert, where there are few people!

Six boys and girls, sitting in an energy buggy with a temperature-regulating function, almost as soon as Fengluo saw them, they also noticed Fengluo, who was standing alone next to the corpse of the bullet-riddled desert stone lizard leader. (To be continued.) )
