Chapter 59: The Bull-Headed Prince
In the face of such a terrifying maze, the vast majority of players can't pass normally, basically waiting until five hours later, after the NPC hero cultivator has passed the maze, there will be a line to guide players to the rendezvous, so many players even open the forum directly to read the post to play when doing tasks.
However, according to everyone's analysis, the results of passing the maze account for 6o% of the task completion, and if you want to achieve more than 8o% completion and get a good prize, you must pass the maze within three hours.
Of course, Liu Ren went for the battle axe, although he already had the Sword of Glory himself, but there were not too many good things, and it was cool to sell them for money or give them to family members. To this end, Liu Ren made full preparations, he transferred the five NPC heroes plus Wu Mu, the guardian spirit of the country, to the leveling mode, and he himself collected and purchased various colors of light stones, these stones, he is ready to sprinkle all the way on the ground to mark, however, the things that the player throws on the ground, can only be saved for 5 minutes, in the maze journey that may take more than three hours, it has little effect, I hope this little help, plus enough luck, can help yourself over 9o% completion.
The Cultivator disappears as soon as he steps into the labyrinth, giving the player no chance to follow him at all. There are three roads in front of him, Liu Ren commands six heroes to walk towards a passage, and he himself follows behind, every time he reaches a fork in the road, he scatters the heroes to explore the way, and stops in place, the reason is very simple, staying in place, it is better than taking the wrong road and returning, and Liu Ren is taking turns to command the six heroes at the same time, he also has to draw with pen and paper, and he has no energy to explore the road himself, and the maze needs not a fast operation, but a calm mind.
The player's NPC heroes can only receive some simple commands. More often than not, it is intelligently controlled by the computer, and even if it accepts these simple commands, it is required to be within the player's line of sight, and after the line of sight, it only has functions such as automatic combat or recall, and if you want to carry out complex operations, you must switch perspectives.
Liu Rendi has the advantage of having reconnaissance ability and long line of sight, so for some short forks, Liu Ren can command the heroes to go to the end, but if the passage is longer and needs to be changed, Liu Ren will switch the perspective to that hero to operate. However, such a switch will make Liu Ren temporarily lose the right to operate other heroes and himself, but fortunately, there are not many times when he needs to switch like this.
Six heroes were drowned in an endless fork in the road, and five minutes later, an NPC hero had already been teleported to an unknown place, and Liu Ren could only temporarily give up command of him. Another advantage of having more subordinates is here, someone can help Liu Ren touch the trap.
It's not that no one is like Liu Ren, using multiple NPCs to explore the way, but there are very few players who can command heroes as efficiently as Liu Ren, and Liu Ren has hardly wasted a little time and has not taken an extra unjust road.
But Liu Ren still began to feel nervous, he had never done this task himself, and today he only knew the horror of this labyrinth, even he was about to lose confidence, because twenty minutes later, an NPC hero touched a trap and led out more than a dozen level 27 monsters, and before other heroes rushed to the rescue, that hero almost died, it was more than twenty gold coins!
And Liu Ren is already a little dizzy now, such a complex labyrinth is more grinding than a battle.
Liu Ren stopped commanding, he looked up, the maze was not completely dark, because there were faintly fluorescent glowstones on the wall, which was Liu Ren's good friend who practiced the quarryman's skills at the beginning.
Liu Ren suddenly sighed, he walked to the wall, and began to use the "stone quarrying technique", and the very evil thing is that he actually succeeded......
Looking at the glowstone in his hand, Liu Ren shook his head again and again, what a group of evil programmers, even the game scene can be moved, I don't know if there are painters and engravers, will they be allowed to create on the wall. (I know the relationship between programmers and game planning, I also bought a lot of game planning and programming books, and I have many friends around me who do this.) In fact, in the early games, there was no division of labor at all, or there was no professional planning at all, and now, there are many programmers who will make suggestions to add content to the game, so in the huge task system, it is not unusual for programmers to design some small tasks out of interest, as long as they are uniformly detected in the end.
Liu Ren tried to mine the boulder from the wall, but this time he was prompted to be ineffective, so Liu Ren took out the pre-prepared ground stone from his bosom and put it on the shelf where the glowstone was originally placed, and then he succeeded again......
I hope that such a "replacement" will not be refreshed by the system, Liu Ren smiled, and then he continued to operate the hero, only this time he was several times more confident than before.
When Liu Ren explored nearly one-fifth of the area and then ran back to the starting point, it only took him half an hour, but there was only one hero left around him, and the others were scattered in the unknown area.
Walking into another fork in the road, ten minutes later, the only hero was passed away, and another ten minutes, Liu Ren also encountered a teleportation trap. However, Liu Ren did not panic, and replaced the glowstone on the wall with stones of different colors along the way, and the combination of these stones was all marked by him, and he would know his location when he was teleported here next time.
After another half an hour, after two teleportations in a row, he finally landed in an area that had been stepped on, and he didn't need to re-explore, and went directly to the unexplored area, along the way, he found his heroes many times, but scattered many times, however, due to the increasing number of marked areas, Liu Ren only needed to temporarily switch to the NPC hero perspective to know the location of some people.
Although the maze is complicated, it is actually not huge, and most people's time is consumed in constant repetitive pathfinding, and Liu Ren, who has made the mark, at least takes twice as much time as others!
Coupled with a little luck, Liu Ren finally broke through the maze, and the system prompted him to pass in two hours and 21 minutes, which is the sixty-third good result in history, according to this result, Liu Ren can already get 6o% of the completion.
Why is it only sixty-three, it's not that there must be someone stronger than Liu Ren's physical strength and maze walking skills (wandering around the maze for a few hours requires too much physical and mental strength...... It's just that there are always some lucky people in the world.,Maybe someone.,The first teleportation trap.,It's at the exit of the maze.,Of course, this is just an example.,The randomness of teleportation.,It will definitely be limited to avoid this level of luck.,But you can pick up a certain cheap person.,There must be.。
But no matter how lucky people are, it is impossible to pass on their heroes together, so they have to wait for helpers, and if they are single players, they can only wait for the arrival of the protagonist cultivator, and this wait is also full of pain.
Of course, Liu Ren didn't dare to go to the minotaur Miluo by himself, he switched to Wu Mu's perspective, operated him through the maze and then attacked, Liu Ren added auxiliary spells while operating Jin Ming, anyway, most of the maze has been drawn by Liu Ren now, as long as he doesn't fall into the teleportation trap, he can walk from the entrance to the exit in ten minutes.
Miro is a 3o level boss, and the 1o level difference makes the battle between him and Wu Mu a one-sided situation, and when Jin Ming joins, the advantage is even more obvious.
Liu Ren didn't operate other sub-heroes, if he accidentally touched a powerful trap and died, it would be a loss of gold coins, besides, the combat level of these sub-heroes was only more than twenty, and Liu Ren was not willing to match each of them with a set of combat clothes, and it wouldn't play much role when they came, so it was better to let Lao Liu save his energy and do it himself.
Yes, Liu Ren swung his lightsaber and pounced, Liu Ren's own attack was not high, even if he added motivation and luck, he could only hit a few points of damage, which could not be compared with the fifty points of damage of Wu Mu's ordinary attack, not to mention the occasional explosion of a special move and hundreds of damage.
However, Liu Ren is not useless, the "light ball attack" with a 3% chance of appearing, under the reinforcement of the intermediate light system ability, the revelation necklace, the crown and the magnifying glass, etc., it can hit about 6o points at a time, and the minotaur who has lived underground for a long time, as soon as he sees the light ball, he will also appear o. For the first time, I felt that I was very strong, like a real warrior, in fact, I don't know if it was because of Liu Ren's equipment or Liu Ren's profession, the chance of him appearing in a light ball attack should be 3%.
It took less than two hours for the Minotaur's HP to finally reach the bottom, and the Positive Horn NPC had not yet arrived, when the system prompted: "You have touched the hidden condition, Minotaur Miro asked to be your slave, do you accept?" ”
Hidden conditions? Is it to defeat the Minotaur before the monk arrives? Finish! Liu Renha laughed wildly and pressed accept!
"Miro, Minotaur Prince, Tier 7 Special Mercenary Unit, Battle Level 3O, Attribute ......"
Cool, it's nothing just a special mercenary unit, that is, a mercenary like a "leader" and "king", this kind of mercenary can't lead troops alone like a hero, but can lead a unit to improve its morale and even attributes, and can use some spells.
However, special mercenaries with names are different, in addition to having twice as much HP as ordinary "kings", they can also appear in leveling mode.
Miro's 3o-level combat level is far from Wu Mubi, but he carries the best equipment bound to himself, and his combat effectiveness is more than that of Minotaur players of the same level, and he is a good hand at leveling up and fighting bosses, and he definitely has a future for training.
Two-legged walking special mercenaries, can get mounts through quests and fuse, having a suitable mount, will be a huge boost to strength, but Liu Ren certainly will not fuse the Bull Head Prince and the Frog Prince into the Bullfrog Prince, that is a joke made by a player during the open beta.
Mounts, of course, the best are dragons, winds, unicorns, etc., and in Liu Ren's mind, it is still the coolest bull, of course, the tasks of these good mounts are difficult to encounter, and most players end up just letting the special mercenaries ride a horse.
Liu Ren, who likes to practice Bull Knight the most, has a secret in the open beta is how to get a special mercenary to get a Bull Mount, and as far as Liu Ren knows, no other player has appeared in that mission.
