Chapter 4: Strategies (Asking for Recommendations and Collections)

"But even if there is a second wave, with that perverted hunting speed, we can be cleaned up soon, won't we work for nothing then?" Xiuping asked suspiciously.

"Stone demons aren't that easy to deal with, especially when there are more than 100 of them. What's more, even if they are killed, how much physical strength do you think they will have left by then? Charles asked with interest.

"But here's the problem, can we beat that pervert?" Xiuping asked weakly.

"What, scared? Afraid of a tired man who has just experienced a big war? A strange smile appeared at the corner of Charles's mouth, and his red eyes were glowing with terrifying blood.

He looked at Xiuping, and the blood light rushed into Xiuping's mind, and Xiuping's pupils gradually became dull.

"Boss, you—" Edward pointed at Charles in horror.

"Oh, don't worry, so are you." After Charles finished speaking, a bloody light entered Edward's mind, and Edward's pupils became the same as Xiuping's.

"Now, your only mission is to kill that contractor, you need to fight to the death for me, and if you kill him and he is still alive, you need to kill yourself immediately to show your loyalty to me." Charles smiled and spoke slowly.

"Yes, my master." Edward and Shuhei replied, their tones hollow.

Looking at the two departing, Charles chuckled: "What a group of cute ants, there are twenty contractors in this world, and now there should be 12 left, oh, soon there will only be ten." The contractor over there should be very strong, hehe, the big fish should be saved for the last kill, so that it will be fun. ”

After saying this, he turned around and left directly, as if his purpose was not to kill Shen Xu at all, nor was it to kill the Goblin Slayer.

.........

In just a short time, Shen Xu had successfully killed more than 20 stone people, and each stone man provided him with 100 merit points.

These stone men are all small soldiers, and the merit value is not very high, if you can kill the stone man who has just given the command, the merit value will be much higher.

Due to the rough skin and thick flesh of the stone people, except for the fairy archers, even if the rest of the people hit the stone people, they may not be able to kill them.

And this is cheaper Shen Xu, he made up for the stone man who could still squirm on the ground, and the merit points did not decrease, it was still 100 points.

Soon this wave of stone men was killed by them. And Shen Xu's merit value also reached 3900 points, which is equivalent to killing 39 stone people.

Unfortunately, the stone man who led the team was shot dead by the fairy archers, and he didn't get any gains.

However, the battle was not over, and although the first wave of stonemen was killed, the lizardmen's faces became even more ugly.

He lay on the ground and listened carefully, and after a moment, he said with a solemn expression: "The second wave of stone men will come soon, and the conservative estimate will exceed a hundred. ”

"100? That's all there are stone people in this area, right? The elf archer's eyes widened in disbelief.

Shen Xu's eyes narrowed slightly, the contractor who calculated all this was a little ruthless, just this wave of attacks had consumed a lot of their physical strength, the elf archer's arrows were almost exhausted, and the lizardman's spells were only two left.

And they still have to face hundreds of stone demons in this state, this is not the worst, after hundreds of stone demons, they may also have to face the contractor who planned all this!

"Can we still run away now? With so many stone people, we are no match at all. The old man asked in a deep voice.

"It's useless, they've surrounded us, it's still two circles inside and out." The lizardmen stood up and took a battle stance.

"In addition to what you said earlier, do the stone demons have any particularly obvious weaknesses?" Shen Xu asked as he looked at the fairy archer while wiping the cyan blood of the stone man from the Hurricane Sword with the weeds.

"Yes, there is, but it's useless, the stone people are very afraid of light, and they don't move much during the day. If exposed to bright light, their stamina and movement speed will drop by at least 50%. ”

"And the stone people have night vision, or their eyes are born to adapt to the night, so once there is a strong light, they are equivalent to blind. This is the fundamental reason why they are reluctant to move during the day. ”

"Why didn't you say such important information earlier?" Shen Xu almost wanted to scold his stupid pig teammates.

"What are you murdering, isn't it night? The stone people are afraid of strong light, and the most we can do now is to light torches, or ask the goddess to use holy light spells. The light of the torches is very weak, the stone demons are not afraid at all, and the effect of the holy light is very good, but the goddess official only uses spells three times a day. The fairy archer looked aggrieved.

"I'll leave that to me." If Shen Xu hadn't known that now was not the time to quarrel, he would have really wanted to cut down the goblin archers, and maybe there would be treasure chests.

He took out several flashlights in his storage space, these were the usual items he bought in the Dream Space, just in case, but he didn't expect to use them so quickly.

"When these stone people enter our 100-meter range, you can directly turn on the strong light, it can emit a strong light similar to the day." Shen Xu instructed.

"How is that possible? Why haven't I seen it, oh, you're not an adventurer in this border town! The elf archer exclaimed.

Shen Xu didn't explain, because the camouflage mechanism of the Dream Space had already explained it for him, which would make everyone think that Shen Xu was not from the border town.

In short, Dream Space will fill in the loopholes that make sense.

Hundreds of stone men kept coming around Shen Xu and them, and Shen Xu saw that the stone men had stepped within a hundred meters, and immediately ordered to turn on the bright light.

The moment the strong light was turned on, a fierce strong light shone out, and the stone men covered their eyes one by one, retracted their heads into the stone armor, and the marching speed immediately slowed down.

Shen Xu didn't think about it, he immediately rushed forward, he wouldn't waste such a good opportunity in vain!

As the main force, he and the Goblin Slayer are the only two, the elven archers release their bows and arrows in the rear, and the old miner, the lizardman, and the goddess officer are responsible for the lighting.

With the cooperation of several people, the number of stone people is decreasing at a rate that is visible to the naked eye.

Shen Xu benefited from the passive bonus of the swordsmanship foundation and the attack power of the Hurricane Sword, and quickly killed the stone people one by one.

Of course, this speed also comes at a price, and he directly sacrifices part of his defense to attack.

He originally planned to grind slowly, but this time there were too many stone demons,

Ants can still bite elephants if they accumulate a certain amount, not to mention that these stone demons are not ants.

Under Shen Xu's frantic offensive, after only 10 minutes, the damage of the stone people reached seventy percent, and only more than 30 stone people were left who finally couldn't bear the pressure and fled.
