Chapter 32: The Discoverer (12)
With two successive victories as the foundation, and a strong man like Luo Ling presiding over the overall situation, everyone is really determined this time. Under Luo Ling's guidance, the adventurers used a few hours to open up the caves that had been hastily excavated, and built several outer bunkers and inner concave ramparts, and also rearranged the fire points.
Luo Ling is not idle, he now wants materials and materials, energy and energy, and there are 5 crystal puppets in the space wrist wheel, which are made from local materials, Luo Ling has prepared a batch of very bulky but interesting quality weapons in the puzzled eyes of everyone.
The creepers lived up to their expectations and went back and forth, this time with an exaggerated number, roughly estimated at more than 50,000. Compared to the monster component of the previous two attacks, this time it was a complete hodgepodge, not only with demon corpses, but also with mad soul puppets who were not good at climbing.
Faced with this situation, Xuanyuan Yanshui and Yun Zhiyuan were a little weak-hearted, not to mention the other team members. But at the same time, the admiration in the eyes of people looking at Luo Ling was a little stronger, without him, the quality weapon prepared by Luo Ling was simply specially prepared for this occasion.
To put it simply, this weapon is a stone that is long, 50cm wide, and 50cm thick, after a simple crystal, a long and 20cm wide blade is added to its front end, and at both ends of this stone, Luo Ling has added a relative gravity magic array, which can form a symmetrical virtual track, so that a super guillotine can be regarded as a coming out.
It was not a complicated job, and with the assistance of crystal puppets, Luo Ling made a total of more than 30 simple guillotines at an average speed of one simple guillotine knife every ten minutes.
Based on the principle of inertia, once the simple guillotine knife passes the initial velocity stage, the speed and strength complement each other, and the power will be increased to a very considerable strength, and at this time, even if Luo Ling personally strikes, it will not be easy to block. Therefore, Luo Ling released all the simple guillotines in the form of three or five in one go.
Three knives are connected, the width is up to 15 meters, and there is a special magic array to ensure the balance of the guillotine and walk against the wall, and the monsters that have been attacked are numerous, the team is dense, and the bottom can only see the back and hips above, the vision is not very good, and there are a large number of demon corpses that are not very good at climbing, and when they find that the razor is approaching, it is often too late to hide, so the situation is formed as if the razor is used to scrape the frost flower on the glass surface, and it is the effect of a shovel to the end, and the monsters are like frost, snow and ice slag out of the stone wall, They were cut off limbs and plunged into the darkness, killing and wounding countless people.
The sudden guillotine attack caused the monsters to suffer heavy losses, but they still had an absolute advantage in numbers, and the fierce battle still did not happen without any suspense after more than ten minutes. Luo Ling asked the team members to shoot the demon corpse first, this kind of monster has no obvious advantage on the stone wall, it is not much different from the target, and once it enters the grotto plane, the trouble level will be multiplied.
Luo Ling is still with Xuanyuan Yanshui and Yun Zhiyuan, and he acts as a long-range, mainly to eliminate creepers, on the stone wall, these guys are like coverers, and it is precisely because of their existence that the overall combat ability of the monsters on the stone wall has risen to a level, once it is eliminated, ordinary demon corpses will just be autumn vegetables waiting to be harvested.
Shoot a creeper every 0.5 seconds, non-stop, non-stop, such a frequency makes Luo Ling's trio the most threatening existence, the monsters get this firepower point, but except for the creepers, ordinary demon corpses are unable to catch up with the three people who change positions from time to time, after losing more than two thousand creepers in vain, the monsters' large encirclement finally closed, Luo Ling switched to 'reincarnation' in this case, and together with Xuanyuan Yanshui and Yun Zhiyuan, broke through to the side and killed a line of death.
The three fifth-order, even if they use the most basic slashing and stabbing slash, the power is still very amazing, and more importantly, they cooperate with each other and watch each other, and the monsters have no possibility of breaking this iron triangle, which has the foundation of being invincible.
Seeing through the intention of Luo Ling and the three to break through the encirclement, the monsters were very active in their movements, trying to trap the three of them in a cage all the time. But the demon corpse was not strong enough on the stone wall, and it couldn't block the impact of the three of them at all, and it seemed that only the creeper could barely do it. So, the crawlers in the monster army stepped on the bodies of other monsters, 'over the mountains and mountains', and from time to time there were several frog-like short verticals, concentrating on Luo Ling's side, because of the large number, the effect was like a jumping fish in the tide, the scene was strange and spectacular.
Being able to attract creepers to attack is exactly what Luo Ling wants.
In fact, it is not only the creepers that are attracted to it, but also the aliens in the creepers and the spellcasters in the demon corpses, they are all long-range energy attack units, although their spell-like power is average, but the frequency is high, and the other is that they have a special damage effect.
Lumps of nuclear waste-like material were spewed out, and the stone walls became extremely greasy and slippery, and continued to volatilize and form colorful poisonous smoke. The monsters were not affected at all, the material of the stone wall was special, and it was completely immune to it, but it was a continuous damage to Luo Ling and the three of them, so Luo Ling changed to a charging gun again, responsible for shooting the two monsters on the outer layer of the encirclement.
Luo Ling and the three of them attracted powerful units among the monsters, which reduced the pressure on the team members a lot, but as time went by, the monsters were still inevitably pasted up, and the battle entered a white-hot stage, from occupying the terrain advantage to being blocked in the cave corridor, a large number of monsters were killed, but the consumption of the team members was not small, especially the armor soldiers and paladins, they were otherwise. Pushing corpses, but with a large number of corpses accumulated in the passage, they will have to resist all the pressure and push the corpses out of the passage, opening up combat space for long-range attacks. It's certainly a dangerous job, but melee combat is a veneer dance with death, and someone has to do it, and they have to do it.
What annoys the team members are the creepers and spellcasters among the monsters. Although their number has been greatly weakened by the existence of Luo Ling's trio, the threat is the greatest, not to mention the poisonous smoke corrosion, the fever and plague of the creepers, once contaminated, will be based on the consumption of magic energy, forming a high-temperature layer on the surface of the armor, about 100 degrees Celsius, and the people inside the armor are all burned on an iron plate.
Even with the simple purification technique that Professor Luo Ling gave to the two paladins, so that the consumption of the spell was only one-third of that of the ordinary purification technique, the frequent effect of removing the plague still tired the two paladins like dogs.
In order to reduce energy consumption, the burns of the team members all used Fang Yanan's medicine to alleviate the pain, and some soldiers simply endured the battle, and waited for the injuries to accumulate unbearable before going to Fang Yanan. At this time, it is often already a multi-partial, second-degree burn.
The skin is an important organ in the human body, but it is very troublesome to treat. At this time, the little preparations that Luo Ling usually made once again reflected its use value. According to Luo Ling's request, Fang Yanan used the time he was waiting for the passage to open and hoarded a large amount of holy water. Not only did he exercise his skills, but he also prepared enough medicine to treat injuries.
This kind of holy water produced by the combination of medicine and holy light is divided into three grades: low, medium and high, the formula is obtained by Luo Ling from Xingani, and then improved twice by him, Mingyue and Murong combined with the technology of the Kanid people, it can be said that it is very exclusive, and the effect is also extremely significant, with its existence, coupled with the nimble hands and feet, Fang Yanan, the medical officer, is a bit of a super-level taste, and he successfully took on the treatment task of the whole team alone.
This battle lasted for more than four hours, and the monsters began to retreat after losing 8% of their combat strength, but Luo Ling and the three of them were ruthless, chasing and killing with victory, until they could no longer find a monster to kill.
When it comes, it is judged by 10,000, and when it goes, it is less than 1,000. At this moment, the monsters were seriously injured, and they did not reappear for 30 hours.
There were no deaths or serious injuries on Luo Ling's side, but the consumption was still very large, and according to statistics, after this battle, most of the materials had been used up one-third of the total, and a few of them had consumed more than half.
"If we fight like these two more, we'll just turn around and go back to Earth." Yun Zhiyuan belongs to the typical type of complaining when something goes wrong.
Not to mention Luo Ling, even other people don't bother to pay attention to him now, people's attention is focused on Luo Ling, everyone believes that since Luo Ling has put forward the idea of steady and steady, it is impossible not to consider it all, and he should have estimated this situation.
Luo Ling did estimate that energy is life. The energy he has in his hands now is still very abundant, and he has crystal technology, so it is not too difficult to convert it into ammunition or combat power, the key is to open sources and reduce expenditure, and balance the balance of revenues and expenditures. Still as usual, Luo Ling only gave specific orders, how to do it, what to do, and nothing else.
Luo Ling told the team members that as executors, what they have to consider is how to improve the implementation work, tend to perfection, and plan things without them having to worry about it.
The monsters were unwilling to lose, and in the 40th hour after the last battle, they gathered tens of thousands of members again and launched an offensive against Luo Ling and his party. This time, they learned to be obedient, not from the bottom up, but in a big circle, from the top down, attacking the cave where Luo Ling and his party were.
However, Luo Ling had already expected that the monsters would come to this move, so he ordered Li Wei to arrange 'eyes' that extended 4 kilometers around him in advance, and after discovering the monster's attempt, Luo Ling, Xuanyuan Yanshui and Yun Zhiyuan launched a rush battle, which was still the same kind of simple guillotine, but this time the amount was twice as much as the last time.
These monsters should also be unlucky, due to the serious shortage of creepers, the monsters failed to find Luo Ling and the three in time, and during the march, their team did not expand, which provided enough conditions for the extraordinary play of the simple guillotine, and as a result, the monsters that were shaved down the abyss by the simple guillotine alone exceeded forty percent of the total number, which was comparable to lining up for Luo Ling to kill, and completely disrupted the monster's array at once.
Luo Ling and the three of them would not miss such an opportunity, rushing in to slash and kill, and slaughtering special beings such as spellcasters among the monsters, but it is a pity that these monsters who show off their might on the flat ground and are invincible, in this case, they can't even exert one-fifth of their strength, and some even have time to see the target clearly, so they die unexpectedly, and they are as aggrieved as they want.
In this battle, Xuanyuan Yanshui and Yun Zhiyuan discovered a terrifying ability from Luling, Death Spot. This embodiment of darkness is one of the best executors of the will to destroy, sweeping everything in the form of wind and sand, reducing it to dust without any energy.
In fact, the death spot is the blood spot, which is the most important part of the fierce skeleton ability, and it is a kind of alien life cultivated by using one-third of its own essence blood as a guide. The sacrificial essence blood cannot be replenished through the death spot, but as long as it is used properly, it is equivalent to one more way to obtain energy and release it - blood energy.
In order to avoid suspicion, Luo Ling did a lot of work before using Death Spot. So much so that Xuanyuan Yanshui and Yun Zhiyuan both thought that this product was a way to use the power of the dark realm that Luo Ling, who controlled both light and darkness, and the holy sand in the holy sand realm.
If you are here, you only need to look at it for 30 seconds to see that there are too many similarities between the dead spots and the blood spots in terms of operation. Fortunately, there were very few survivors of the Battle of the Crater Illusion back then, and both Xuanyuan Yanshui and Yun Zhiyuan were amazed by the terrifying power of the Death Spot and ignored its essence, and they even wishfully regarded the proliferating Death Spot as the result of the complete opening of Luo Ling's realm.
Of course, being able to do so is inseparable from Luo Ling's deliberate inducement. He manipulated the gray-white blood spots to always attack them in the form of wind and sand, in several fixed forms, neither letting them out of range nor allowing them to act arbitrarily, through such restrictions, the blood spots looked like a manifestation of energy similar to the ashes of death, and concealed the essence of their lives, thus successfully blinding Xuanyuan Yanshui and Yun Zhiyuan.
In the eyes of the two of them, Luo Ling suddenly went berserk, and at the expense of his own essence and blood (the loss of the origin, the strong can perceive it through the judgment of breath and other aspects), strengthened the ability of the fully open domain, thus creating a dark storm. The essence of the dark energy is to destroy all other 'abilities', so even this strange immortality cannot escape the harsh judgment, and when swept away by the storm, it quickly turns to ashes and is completely obliterated......
The original blood spot is not a real big stomach king, it lives by devouring life energy. And Luo Ling gathered all the prison seals, comprehended the holy light, and finally held the power of the six elements in his hands, which made the blood spots metamorphose, and the energy that could be digested went to the source to a higher level, becoming an existence that could devour elemental energy. And due to Luo Ling's different degrees of control over elemental power, the blood spots are currently the best at devouring and absorbing the three energies of fire, light, and darkness. The manifestation of this is that in the case of the outbreak of spells, if it is fire, light, and darkness, most of them will not only not be able to kill the blood spots, but will increase their value, and the effect of the other three types of elemental spells will be worse, or even have diametrically opposite results.
The monsters of Asura City use the essence of the energy they use is magical energy, but it is self-contained, similar to the power of immortals who absorb magical energy and turn it into immortal spirits. In such a situation, the blood spots can swallow those untransformed magical energy and the three types of fire, light, and darkness in the alien form, and the others have not yet reached the devouring conditions. Unless Luo Ling uses one of the three major finishing moves of the Fierce Skeleton, 'Blood Devouring'. In that case, the monsters will not die like they do now, and the debris will be scattered. But as the price of forcibly devouring, the blood spots will also strangle themselves to death.
Luo Ling doesn't need to do that, 'farming' can achieve the goal, and there is no need to crush it at the cost of consuming himself. One-third of the essence and blood in the body will take at least a month to recover, considering the cost accounting, if you can't make back several times the profit, this is a loss-making business, and doing a loss-making business is not Luo Ling's style.
As a spoiler, they killed them in a targeted manner, and then the three of them chose to retreat.
The monsters couldn't beat it, and they couldn't surround it, so they had to helplessly watch it break through, just integrate the team, and as a result, several engineering magic spells laid by Luo Ling before hit at the right time, so it was chaos again, the casualties were not counted, stepping on the beat, Luo Ling and the three of them killed back again, and left for the second time after ten minutes.
There is no third time, and special units such as spellcasters have already been killed, a single melee monster, and the threat to Luo Ling and his party is extremely low.
The monsters still chose to fight. Luo Ling couldn't figure out whether a certain mechanism was working, or if the commander thought that after the consumption of such a few major battles, Luo Ling's side had also reached the point of running out of oil. In general, until the current position, except for the battle of the Soul Bridge, the rest of the battles in Asura City are more like a killing game, or actual combat exercises, even if they destroy monsters in a system, Luo Ling does not have the slightest sense of achievement.
Again, the heyday came, only to return with a handful of remnants. When the monsters retreated, Luo Ling clearly saw more confidence and composure in the eyes of the team members. This fierce battle, which lasted nearly five hours, Luo Ling's personal harvest was a huge number of dead spots, and the team members determined the value of crystal substitutes through the test of actual combat, and the weapons and ammunition made by crystal technology were better than the equipment they originally used, and because of Luo Ling's guidance, some more humane details were applied to all links, and the individual increase was not much, but it was summed up in a lot.
"You are full of charm, I see that everyone's eyes are full of admiration and admiration when they look at you." It was the fourth night since the downward advance, and Xuanyuan Yanshui, who was on duty the night after, woke up and found that Luo Ling still hadn't rested. Since the operation, Luo Ling has only had an hour of rest every day, and the team members privately call it 'Perpetual Motion'.
Luo Ling, who was enriched, glanced at Xuanyuan Yanshui, who was sitting next to him, did not speak, and continued to concentrate on studying the magic array.
Xuanyuan Yanshui knew that Luo Ling could multitask, so he was still babbling to himself, from worrying that his party had been delayed here for too long, to later going off topic to the parents, and the mother-in-law said a lot, even if Luo Ling only hummed and replied, he was still interested, and finally leaned on Luo Ling's back and took a nap for a while.
For a while, Xuanyuan felt sweeter than the previous sleep. If the gloomy Asura City is a wilderness, Luo Ling is a solid rock in this wilderness, relying on him, Xuanyuan Yanshui feels very stable and steady.
As we entered the morning of the fifth day, there was still eternal darkness and coldness all around. After breakfast, Luo Ling ordered the camp to be pulled out and continued down.
This time, there was no large-scale monster horde, and this afternoon, the team officially bottomed out, and special data instruments showed that it was about 150 kilometers away from the top, and it took a total of 120 hours.
The ground was filled with the corpses of monsters that had died in the fierce battles for days, and a very strange humanoid creature fed on these corpses, and the arrival of Luo Ling and his party alarmed them, burrowing into all corners, watching in the darkness with a green gaze.
Pressing down the gun in the hand of a sniper, Luo Ling ordered, "Don't take the initiative to attack this creature." ”
"Why?" Yun Zhiyuan pouted. These thin monsters have obscene figures, hateful faces, and gloomy eyes, and being stared at by them makes people feel unpleasant to step on stool, and Yun Zhiyuan wants to kill them all with a stick.
"Because I'm the captain." Luo Ling rarely did not explain the reason, but asked everyone to carry out this almost arrogant rhetoric.
"What?!" Yun Zhiyuan muttered quietly. As the time spent together grew, the fear of Luo Ling in his heart could be said to be increasing day by day. "You never know what deadly abilities he has to hide, tuck in, and wait for the moment when he reveals his hideousness." This is Yun Zhiyuan's evaluation of Luo Ling behind his back. Although it was used to convince Xuanyuan Yanshui that Luo Ling was not so reliable, it also reflected his truest feelings about Luo Ling.
According to Luo Ling's instructions, after the team descended the corpse mountain, they followed the stone wall all the way to the north.
The terrain here is typical of wasteland, relatively flat, but there is nothing but gravel and hard-erected land.
There was a very complete darkness all around, as if it was a night before dawn, and you couldn't see your fingers. Luo Ling knew the direction, and under his leadership, after more than four hours of trekking, the team found a very special garbage dump - Rusty Metal Mountain.
The civilization of the Baihe people is also based on stone, and they also mine metal ores, but the purpose is to refine a special element in it, add this element to the stone, and then after special treatment, you can get extremely high-quality gold stone, like the stone wall that Luo Ling climbed down with his party, which is a kind of final gold stone, and the soul bridge belongs to the secondary gold stone.
The team set up camp at the foot of the metal mountain and immediately put into the production and manufacturing of materials. Luo Ling's spatial wrist chakra already had some crystal instruments that were originally made in Amela, and when he was waiting for the door of the passage to open, he made some as needed, and now he can quickly put them into use when he unfolds them directly.
Smelting oven, profile production line, annular crystallization pit, assembly workshop...... When these units begin to operate under the operation of the crystal golems, a steady stream of accessories is produced; When more than a dozen collapsible satellite communication pot-like collapsible magic energy absorbers are all in operation; Only then did everyone understand what it meant to be steady.
"I kind of understand, Mu Xuan's purpose is to continue the farming stream to the end, treasure digging and exploration is not his purpose, it is his wish to clean up Asura City into a pure land."
