Chapter Forty-Eight: Encounter with an Ogre

The hard Shi'an Plain, endless, gray, so simple that there is not even a single wrinkle.

The blue sky is so quiet, but the ground is bustling.

Strings of caravans walked along this dangerous trade route, and blood and fire would be intertwined at any moment.

"Brother Hao, where did you get the escort task from, the employer is generous enough." Makoto Fat asked.

This time, instead of the previous 3 silver coins, the reward for the runner mission is 10 silver coins per person.

This is what Isabella called not being bad, Yang Hao thought to himself.

"Hey, Haicheng, don't you like collecting data? How is the game currency collected now? Yang Hao believes that he can use the money earned from selling videos to make some investments.

"Brother Hao, I advise you to dispel the idea of acquiring game currency as soon as possible." Cheng Fat Man poured cold water.

"Why? Is it because the price is too high? ”

"It's not about the money, it's about the fact that there are too few people selling." Cheng Fat Man analyzed:

"You know, now that we live 16 hours a day in reality and 72 hours in games, Wizarding World has become a second world for humans. Brother Hao, let me ask you, what are you asking for money in reality? ”

"Needless to say, of course, it's to enjoy life and buy what you want." Yang Hao replied as a matter of course.

"By the same token, the player doesn't need money to live in the game. In reality, at least we don't have to worry about eating and drinking, but we are all poor and white to come into the game, eating, drinking, repairing equipment, training, etc. This is still the basic cost, and it is even more expensive to practice witchcraft.

To put it simply, the vast majority of people now want to buy game currency and use RMB to help their poor self in the game. ”

Yang Hao: "...", too, the money for repairing equipment every day is more than one silver. The money in the hands of ordinary players is just enough, and perhaps elite players will have a little spare money. The 100 gold supported by the old man of the Xiaoxue family at one time is estimated to be most of their funds, so they really trust me.

In fact, Yang Hao didn't know that the most expensive place for players to spend every day was on eating. He has delicious food prepared by Yang's mother every day, and other players don't have such a good treatment, and the cheapest rough steamed bun also costs 3 copper each, not to mention that the taste is not good, and he is not hungry.

This is simply unbearable for players who are used to eating food, so players who learn cooking skills have made a lot of money.

Yang Hao was sighing that "Wizarding World" was different from previous games, but the wind on the side suddenly said:

"Brother Hao, there is a situation, the corn tells me that there is an enemy coming."

Corn is the name that Gale gave to his eagle.

"How many came?" Yang Hao asked.

"There is not much corn, less than 10." The corn in the sky chirped a few times to indicate a strong wind.

"Less than 10? How is it so little? Yang Hao said suspiciously.

"Brother Hao, isn't it good to come less? Maybe we're lucky. Hunter Feng said with a smile.

"Everyone's stopped, fenced off the trucks." Yang Hao said with a solemn face.

"Brother Hao, is it necessary to be so nervous?" Hunter Feng asked puzzled, he was the first player to participate in the running business, and he had already known this kind of task.

Although everyone didn't understand Yang Hao's intentions, they all obediently did so.

"Be careful, everyone, we may have run into ogres."

Yang Hao's words stirred up a thousand waves, and everyone talked about it.

"Brother Hao, no, it's so easy to meet an ogre." Fury Wind Road.

"Yes, no one has ever encountered it, and it is not certain whether there is such a monster or not." Hunting Wind Tunnel.

"It's... Brother Hao, could you be mistaken? "Gale uncertain tunnels.

….

"Don't panic, everyone, the game will definitely not give us a free lunch, if it is a jackal or kobold, there must be more than 10 of them, so the chance of being an ogre is very high. I also hope that I was too nervous and mistaken, but I had to guard against it. Yang Hao explained.

"Don't guess, they'll be in sight soon." Gale shouted.

In the distance, the sand and dust were billowing, and everyone couldn't see the faces of the comers, but judging from the size, Yang Hao's guess was correct, and it should indeed be an ogre.

"Brother Hao, it's bad this time, the ogre is also a level 5 monster to say the least, and we are more than lucky this time." Although Fury had never encountered ogres, he had heard from the caravan leaders that many caravans had encountered ogres and had been afraid of these monsters for a long time.

"I'm afraid it's even worse, ogres are generally level 6 monsters, with infinite strength and thick skin, but don't be afraid, although this battle is dangerous, we still have a chance." Yang Hao didn't deliberately hide the strength of the ogre, he already had a preliminary strategy.

"Damn, who's afraid! See who eats whom! The gale roared.

"Yes, watch me hack them to death!" Axe Brother Road.

….

It didn't take long for the ogre to approach Yang Hao and his team, and everyone finally saw the demons in the mouths of these merchants.

There are a total of 9 ogres, and they are generally more than two meters tall, with large shoulders and round waists, and terrifying sizes.

Their complexion ranges from dark yellow to dark brown, and they have been heard of a rare sickly purple color, while the raised nodules on their bodies are of a different color, or at least darker than their outer skin.

They have thick necks with crusty skins and long hair, often unkempt and greasy. It has a broad, flat nose and purple eyes with white pupils on the left and right. The teeth and claws are orange or black. They are dressed only in simple tanned hides.

Yang Hao: They could smell their natural stench from a distance.

The first passive skill alone is equivalent to the elite level of ordinary creatures, and there is also a kill line.

"Brother Hao is up, how do you fight?" Furious Wind stared at the ogre road running wildly not far away.

Yang Hao pointed to the three cannon fodder mercenaries and said, "You take this and run to the enemy team, and then press the switch." ”

He handed each of the three cannon fodder mercenaries a round metal object, which could be seen clearly by light snow and strong wind, which was clearly a "suicide bomber".

"Brother Hao, are you going to carry out a suicide attack? That's a great idea. Gale said suddenly

"Raging Wind, Hunting Wind!" Yang Hao didn't have time to pay attention to the gale, and continued to command: "After hearing the explosion, you take turns to cast the whirlwind technique to make the situation as chaotic as possible, and then the two of you will deal with an ogre." ”

"Understood!" Fury Wind and Hunter Wind responded.

"Haicheng, Brother Axe and Lao Wei, I need you to deal with one by one, Sister Haiqing looks at their blood volume."

"Okay, I've learned to call the tide and make sure they don't die."

"Very good, I will send the remaining 8 mercenaries to drag down 3 ogres, and I will deal with one with Xiaoxue."

"Brother Hao, what about me?" Gale asked eagerly.

"Gale, your task is the heaviest, you have to do your best to hold off the ogre warrior, Xiaoxue and I will solve the battle as soon as possible to help you."

"Haha, wrap it around me!" Gale said proudly, he had enough confidence in his agility.

In the last 100 meters, the ogre warriors had already sung ugly war songs, and the ogre bandits on the left and right rushed over as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, a little faster.

With a wave of Yang Hao's hand, 3 human bombs rushed out, and after they ran 50 meters, Yang Hao followed closely behind.

Soon, the cannon fodder trio rushed into the ogre's ranks, followed by three violent explosions.

Because there is no centralized placement, the ogre also has magic resistance, so the damage caused by the explosion is not high, but it disrupts the ogre's formation.

When Fury heard the explosion, he immediately stopped casting, and the whirlwind gradually rose, enveloping the smoke and dust from the explosion, obscuring the ogre's vision.

Yang Hao and the others rushed into the dust without hesitation, and found their respective opponents under the command of Fury Feng (Fufeng can sense the general location of the enemy in his own sorcery).

Volibell rushed in front of Yang Hao and Xiao Xue, found an ogre robber who had just gotten up from the ground, and roared and pounced on it and tore it.

However, it was inferior in strength and size to its opponents, and was quickly overwhelmed to the ground.

The ogre robber raised his large wooden stick and was about to blast Volibel's head when a green shadow cut through the dust curtain and whipped him on his thick face.
