"Maybe we're closer to the core area, and the monsters are getting stronger, right?"
Lin Linling also noticed that from the beginning, the garbage monsters shattered when they touched the Holy Light Shield, and now they can step into the Holy Light Mask for two or three steps, and it only took more than half an hour.
Moreover, the constant "whoosh" cracking sound from the edge of the Holy Light Mask also told them that it seemed that the number of garbage monsters outside the Holy Light Mask was getting denser and denser, so dense that it was as if those monsters had pounced on the Holy Light Mask to "commit suicide", and the Wutong who walked along the road also noticed that the ground under their feet had changed from the original rust-colored grass to powder-like bone residue!!
Sensing this, Sycamore, who began to feel a little uncomfortable, began to call the players back and stop in place to check the situation, and as a result, a dense rustle surrounded them, and the edge of the Holy Light Mask continued to pour in a large number of stumbling zombies and skeletons.
These skeletons and zombies, under the shroud of the Holy Light, can hold on to the depth of the distance is getting bigger and bigger, one foot, two feet five feet! And the soul energy points that burst out after they were eroded by the holy light are also increasing, from the initial 1 and 2 points, to the current 5 points, what does this mean?
It means that the strength of these garbage skeletons is improving!
"Speed up!"
Sycamore decisively gave the order, and the players, who also sensed that something was wrong, did not ask why, and ran wildly, feeling deeper [Wailing Wilderness] and then stopped again, but the skeletons did not speed up their strength because they moved their positions, and they continued to improve their strength slowly but steadily, as before.
"I don't think we've gone much further [into the weeping wilderness]!"
Infinite said with a serious face: "We seem to be drawing circles in place!" Otherwise, it would have been long overdue to get out of the 'skeleton circle'! ”
According to the information explored by the guild that entered the [Wailing Wilderness], the danger level here is like other dangerous maps, the danger level is from the outside in, the outer area, the lower the danger of monsters, and monsters, whether "dead" or "alive", usually have a fixed territory, and do not dare to easily set foot in the territory of higher-level monsters.
And they have been walking for half a day since they entered the [Weeping Wilderness], and if they had walked in a straight line, they would have theoretically passed through the territory of [Rotten Skeletons] and [[***] Zombies], but they are still circling the territory of these garbage monsters, which shows that they have always been circling in circles in the gray mist.
They don't know what the reason for this is, but according to infinite information, that guild didn't plan to go deep into the [Weeping Wilderness] in order to hunt down the ghouls who invaded Goth Village, but just on the periphery, that is, the so-called "Skeleton Circle" area of the players, they pounced more than a dozen times, it doesn't make sense that their more than 2,000 guild elites died at the hands of these [Rotten Skeletons] and [[***] Zombies] who are worse than flies, right?
He didn't believe it, a huge guild, what kind of professional configuration is not? Can't even have a priest player who knows the basic magic of [Holy Light], right?
Take 10,000 steps back and say, with these garbage monsters alone, more than 2,000 elite players, it is enough to kill horizontally and vertically in the skeleton circle with their eyes closed, there is no reason why it is better than their small team of less than 100 people, right? They had been wandering around here for a long time with just one [Holy Light Technique], and there were no casualties.
"These garbage monsters will come back to life? And the more you die, the stronger you get? Wutong was a little surprised, indeed, if they were drawing circles in place, theoretically they would have killed all the skeletons on the route a long time ago, and they couldn't keep touching the sea of skeletons, and the more they died, the more they died!
Infinite nodded: "The members of that guild were also smooth sailing at the beginning, but as the danger of the garbage monster increased, it began to show losses, and it was not easy to find the ghoul in the vast sea of monsters, and used the sea of people tactics to kill it."
Looking at the players around him who were carefully guarded, Wutong wondered, "Could it be that we have to wait for the strength of these garbage monsters to improve and kill their bosses before we can break through the fog and enter the depths?" ”
"It's possible!" Lin Linling also nodded approvingly.
"So what do we do? Just waiting? Wutong looked at the skeletons that had stepped into the Holy Light Shield for ten feet, and the broken and rotten bones on their bodies had begun to become smooth and strong, and their color had changed from gray to white from the beginning.
"It shouldn't be long!" Infinity judged that the speed at which the skeletons were breaking through the Holy Light Shield was getting faster and faster, indicating that the speed at which they were resurrected after death had increased.
The crowd had no choice but to gather together and stay where they were, waiting for the skeletons and zombies that were constantly turning into powder under the effect of the Holy Light Mask to become stronger, so that the boss could be born and then kill it.
Sure enough, another half an hour has passed, and the skeletons can already carry the holy light to invade the player, but they are basically hammered to death by the warrior players, but slowly, they can reach the front of the warrior player's shield wall, and there are more and more skeletons and zombies that can attack the player, and there are more broken weapons on the claws, and there are even more tattered leather armor and armor on the body, and the name has changed from [Rotten Skeleton] and [[***] Zombie] to ordinary [Skeleton] and [Zombie].
When the garbage monsters become ordinary monsters, the pressure on the players begins to be huge, because although the ordinary monsters have passed through the 200-foot holy light area and come to the players, they are basically already barely breathing, and the players can kill them in a short time in one or two moves.
However, ordinary monsters are ordinary monsters, not those [Corrupted Skeletons] and [[***] Zombies] who are slow to attack, the most important thing is that there are too many of them! There are so many warriors who need to act as a human wall and meat shield to block the approach of skeleton zombies, and players give up their defenses and go all out to barely stop them from crossing the line.
The mages, on the other hand, could no longer hide comfortably in the crowd, half of them released and half of them [meditated] to restore their energy alternately [Acid Splash], but all of them took super-quality potions, and frantically vented their spell output at the fastest speed.
Infinite smashed a skeleton holding a tattered wooden shield with his backhand, jumped back into the human wall formed by the warriors, gasped and threw a [trace amount of stamina recovery potion] into his mouth, and observed the barbarians who were happily rushing around in the sea of skulls and zombies like bulldozers, and felt a little depressed to vomit blood.
This Nima gap is too big, right? These barbarians haven't transformed, they've gone berserk, they're not violent, they can ignore the attacks of skeletons and zombies, how do you think their shiny thick skin grows? The innate defense is also a little too high!
After dealing with the injuries suffered because the monsters were too dense and flashed, Infinite suddenly found that the most monster mage in the team actually stood in the crowd with the staff and looked back and forth, without the slightest intention of moving.
"Why don't you kill monsters?" Infinity asked depressedly, although you are the leader of the team, but this stroke is too obvious, right?
Wutong glanced back at him, shrugged his shoulders, and didn't explain, but said, "Did you notice?" The number of monsters seems to be decreasing? ”
"Less? How do I not think? ”
Infinite stunned turned his head to look at the dense group of monsters under the shroud of holy light, did your eye see a gap between monsters and monsters?
"No, I mean, the total number of them has decreased!"
Wutong thought for a moment, a little unsure of how to express himself, and pointed to the edge of the Holy Light Mask: "Look there! Noticed? When the 78 of us were 200 feet apart, we were surrounded by a circle of skeletons and zombies, which means that these skeletons and zombies that were alarmed by us were actually all over the five kilometers in a straight line! ”
Infinite thought about it, sweated, really! If skeletons and zombies could surround them within a five-kilometer radius, how many of them would there be?
"Later, we shrunk into a ball, the skeletons and zombies around the Holy Light Mask still surrounded a circle, and the [Holy Light Technique] released by the Lingyue Frost and Snow illuminated the range, up to a circle of 250 feet in diameter, that is to say, the circumference is more than 260 meters, we calculated according to one monster per meter, an average of 260 monsters per second, more than 15,000 monsters in a minute, and nearly a million monsters in an hour."
Wutong glanced at Infinity: "How come it has been an hour or two since we alarmed these skeletons and zombies, how much do you think the powder has piled up after one or two million monsters have turned into powder?" I don't dare to say it, it's definitely enough to bury us alive, right? But it didn't, and there wasn't much bone meal on the ground, so what does that mean? What powders are they coming back from! And I speculate that as they become stronger after the resurrection, the total number of them decreases."
Infinite was shocked for a moment, and carefully observed the surroundings of the Holy Light Shield, indeed, the skeletons and zombies that kept squeezing in from outside the Holy Light Shield, although the density was still very large, but it was not like at the beginning, you squeezed me and I squeezed you side by side, it did seem a lot sparse!
"Let's assume that at the beginning, a [Corrupted Skeleton] only had 1 soul energy point, then assuming that their total number is 1 million, every time they hang up, they will be resurrected, and their strength will be doubled, becoming 2 soul energy points, but the number is only 500,000."
Wutong analyzed: "By analogy, when they hang up 11 times, their strength is equivalent to more than two thousand times that of [Corrupt Skeleton], and at the same time they have evolved into ordinary [Skeleton], which is equivalent to the strength of ordinary skeletons with 1800 soul energy points at level 0 and level 20 that we encountered on Trial Island, at this time, I guess the number of them will not exceed 500 in total!" ”
"What do you mean?"
Infinite understood: "Actually, we are not fighting against a group of monsters, but against one!" Two monsters at most desperate? A skeleton and a zombie? ”
Sycamore shrugged: "I'm just guessing, if that's the case, as long as we kill the last two monsters, maybe we'll be able to get out!" As he spoke, he stroked the wide sleeves of [the blazing robe] on his body.
"Nearly five hundred monsters, we can't bear it, if their number is further reduced, but their strength is doubling, in the end, will they become skeleton kings and zombie kings, right? We haven't fought much, have we? ”
Infinite was a little worried at first, but he saw Wutong, who had been lazy in paddling for a long time and hadn't started to fight monsters, rolling up his sleeves, and couldn't help but ask strangely: "What do you want to do?" ”
"Let's try to guess right!"
Sycamore grinned, "Didn't you ask me why I didn't recruit more Divine players?" Look ahead! ”
He groped around on his body and checked the equipment on his body, first threw a pill into his mouth, and then spit out a secret spell, and on his empty left hand, he suddenly "Bang!" A blazing flame ignited, and the warrior players who were desperately trying to block the turbulent sea of skulls shouted: "Brothers, let go!" ”
The desperate warrior players glanced back in their busy schedules and shouted in shock: "Damn! Lie down! ”
The human wall in front of the sycamore fell down with a "bang", and a roaring fire dragon erupted from the top of their heads, engulfing a large number of skeletons and zombies in the conical direction of the front into the sea of fire!
[Burning Hand]!
Whether it was the warriors lying on the ground, or the mages standing beside Wutong, they all looked at the large area that exploded in the flames, and they didn't know if it was illuminated by the flames, or the "negative value floating blood" value that was scarlet like blood:
[-3408~]
[-3376~]
[-3408~]
Infinite "Gollum" swallowed, and he understood why Sycamore said that he didn't need to recruit a group of Divine players, because there was no need!
Instant kill! All the skeletons and zombies in the fan-shaped area within 15 feet of each other were instantly reduced to nothing! And the mage, who had a layer of flame light and shadow all over his body, was still moving his arm to move the sprayed fire dragon sideways!
A large number of skeletons and zombies rushed in, like moths to a fire, a steady stream of fire dragons under the continuous strafing of the fire dragon, like the most flammable fluff, collectively burned, just now they were desperately tired to death, like soap bubbles as vulnerable to the scattered ashes!
After Wutong turned around in place, the fire dragon in his hand turned into a line of fire, and after the stars disappeared little by little, there was a short blank period around them, and there was not a single monster!
