Chapter 611: Create a Squad Assessment Mission
On the second day after confirming the team configuration with his teammates, Hu Siming officially submitted an application to the college to form a team.
Without the Academy's approval, the cadets can only form temporary squads at most. Not only do you have to report in advance every time, but you can't enjoy many of the benefits of the official squad. For example, there is a certain range of vision sharing, a free squad channel that is nearly twice the range of a normal communication channel, and a public space where you can share some consumables......
Because of this, Hu Siming has had an idea from a long time ago.
However, in line with the principle of competition, the academy will not casually issue the authorization of the squad. After each squad submits an application, it must go through an assessment before it can be formed. The assessment is placed in a battlefield similar to the compulsory one, and even if you die, you will not lose anything. Although the specific arrangements are varied, the general pattern remains the same. The four applied squads competed in the same field, and only the two best squads in the table were awarded a place to create.
If you don't, you can only wait a week to apply again.
This regulation has been criticized by students on the forums of Battle.net, and many people feel that the academy is too lenient. However, the academy is also quite helpless. After all, many teams are not formed reasonably, such as melee teams that place extreme emphasis on control zhì, or five-kitchen knives, and then they are all crispy mages...... It's nothing like this in the compulsory course, you can play any lineup, but the situation in the new world is too complicated, and a lineup that is too extreme may be fine most of the time, but sooner or later it will suffer.
It is precisely for this reason that the academy will set up such an assessment and screening, so that some of them can be forcibly eliminated in the team formation stage.
Hu Siming's team, whether it is the future configuration or the current strength, is quite comprehensive, and it doesn't matter about this regulation. After paying a symbolic registration fee of 100 universal points, Hu Siming got the time arranged by the college, two days later, at noon.
Because they have cooperated many times on weekdays, Hu Siming and his teammates have not done too much running-in temporarily. After a little preparation, I arrived at the designated public classroom at the requested time. Before they came in, a team had already arrived here, but they were separated from each other by an enchantment, and they could only see a vague shadow, and there was no way to communicate in advance.
Hu Siming was confident in the strength of his team, and he didn't think about connecting in advance or anything, but waited calmly. In just a minute or two, two more teams entered one after another. Then, the silver teleportation light lit up, and all the students who participated in the squad creation assessment received the prompts given by the battlefield.
"Enter the preset battlefield [Lost Ruins]. ”
"Kill certain elite monsters to earn a Relic Stamp, which drops when you die. At the end of the three-hour countdown, the two squads with the largest number of stamps will be eligible to form a full-fledged squad. ”
"Dying in the battlefield does not lose longevity and drops, and kills do not gain experience. ”
Simple and clear rules!
Unlike the unified examination, which may have several main lines and branches, the test of creating a squad seems to be completely summed up in one sentence: don't be cowardly, just do it!
As their feet stepped on the ground, the light of the teleportation disappeared completely, and the five appeared on a lush plateau. The surroundings are full of plants common to the New World, and between the cracks in the trees, you can faintly see the ruins of huge rocks in the distance. Judging from the map provided by the battlefield, they should be in the southwest corner of the entire battlefield at the moment.
"Looking at this posture, could it be that the initial position of the four teams is in the four corners of the map?"
Yan Shaoou pushed his glasses and made the most conceivable and reasonable inference.
"That's how it should be. ”
Hu Siming pondered for a few seconds and made a decision: "First take a turn around the neighborhood to see the average difficulty of the battlefield, and then consider rushing to the middle." If you can come across a weaker squad, eat them directly. ”
Although the test battlefield for creating a squad will also be divided according to combat power, it is better to take the unified examination after all. In addition, there is no loss from failure, at most a week later, Hu Siming's decision is relatively bold. As for the loss of the registration fee, the 100 general points have long been out of his eyes.
This little money is at your fingertips for pseudo-hero students, let alone him!
After making a decision, the five quickly got into action. Under normal circumstances, it should be Xu Guang, the meat shield, who is on the front line, ready to take damage at any time. After taking Hu Siming's crown of king, this guy's attributes have soared, and his blood volume is close to Hu Siming's record back then, but who called Lao Hu to succeed in the graduate school entrance examination now. After equipping the Ancestral War Drums, Hu Siming's HP was as high as 1627 points. If you count the hero armor, he alone is worth three or four Xu Guang's meat.
With such strength, it is natural to be in the first row of danger.
I have to say that there is a hero and a strong man leading the way, and Xu Guang, who is walking behind, has expressed a sense of security. Ordinary traps and stealth skills can't hide the hero's perception at all. Because of this, Xu Guang and Lao Yan reassuredly exchanged preparations for the postgraduate entrance examination; Yu Gaowu was also secretly thinking about his own affairs; only Shi Niu, who had always been calm, could still pay attention to maintaining his position and be ready to counteract at any time.
But even if he did, Shi Niu was just out of habit, and he didn't think he would encounter any trouble in his heart.
What's more, they're just leaving from the starting point now.
In the first few minutes, the five of them did not encounter any anomalies. Because they enjoyed the aura of the Sacred Destruction Horn and the Hu Siming Ancestor War Drum at the same time, Yan Shaoou and the four of them moved a lot faster. Soon, the team descended from the high ground where they had entered the battlefield and officially entered the Lost Ruins. In addition to the broken, mossy stone slabs on the ground, the remnants of half-collapsed arches and tall stone pillars can be seen everywhere.
Here, they were attacked by the first Demonic Beasts.
Perhaps in order to take care of all the teams involved, the strength of Warcraft is far weaker than Hu Siming imagined, and the average level is only a little more than LV20. Even if Hu Siming didn't make a move, the four Yan Shaoou, who had taken over a lot of equipment from him, could easily solve them. The only thing that can be said to be tricky is a LV24 green-name elite, the Elder of the Relic Savages.
But it's just a little tricky.
In last year's unified examination, Hu Siming's team was already able to kill the LV25 amusement park security captain. Although Hu Siming didn't make a move at the moment, Yan Shaoou's strength has greatly improved, and it is not difficult to deal with it. Xu Guang was in front of him, and the talent rubbing cut a hardened skin that he had just stolen, and the flesh was outrageous at the elite level; Yan Shaoou summoned the water element, and the demon puppet summoned after the warlock bone jade scepter was killed; Yu Gaowu stood relatively forward, and used the bloody mark of the talent as usual.
Once the 30% damage amplification appears, it is an immediate improvement for the team.
Shi Niu outputs unhurriedly, adding a barbarian shaman's protection from time to time, and is ready to interrupt at any time.
If this rhythm continues, this relic savage elder will not be able to bargain for anything, and will soon be killed. It's just that, considering that they still have a battle to fight next, there is no need for Hu Siming to stand on the sidelines. Seeing that his teammates were in full swing, he grabbed the Sword of Flame Proverbs from the storage slot and activated the third layer of talent.
The cyan flames burned silently, quickly spreading across the Great Sword.
The matter of the third layer of talent, Lao Yan already knew about it, but Yu Gaowu hadn't seen the effect with his own eyes, so he couldn't help but be a little surprised. As for the besieged Ruins Savage Elders, sensing Hu Siming's might as a hero, his attention immediately shifted. It could feel that the threat of this person in front of it was higher than the other four people who were fighting it combined!
In the trembling of the demonic beast, the cyan sword flashed away.
With just a casual sword, Hu Siming hit 150+ actual damage. The armor of the Elder of the Ruins Savage instantly melted 7 points under the cyan flames!
Nail reduction effect comparable to desolation!
The elite monster with rough skin and thick flesh instantly turned into a small crispy skin that was easy to push down, making Yan Shaoou's output skyrocket again. First there is a 30% damage amplification, and then there is the Annihilation Orb, even if you are an elite student, you can play a hero-level output on it. After only a few rounds of skill, this LV24 elite was hit hard.
If it were a normal team, the kind that didn't have talented students, I'm afraid it was just the beginning.
With the end of a general attack, the Death Lord Crown inherited by Yan Shaoou from Hu Siming was powerful, and 120 points of damage were instantly struck, completing the kill!
As the battlefield suggests, this elite monster doesn't provide any experience energy, and drops only a description of the relic seal. Open the statistics list of the battlefield, you can see that among the four squads, Hu Siming's team ranks first in Ming Huanghuang, with the number "1" behind it.
However, just as Hu Siming was about to close the statistics list, another team to be created rushed up, and the relics seal hunted also became 1.
It's only a few seconds slower than them!
This speed made Hu Siming stunned, and it also stimulated Yan Shaoou and them. I thought that this test to create a team would be a relatively relaxed activity with Lao Hu in charge. I didn't expect that there was really a team that could be matched, which immediately cheered up a few people.
Perhaps to prove that this exam room was not simple, just a few minutes later, they were in real trouble.
It's still an LV24 elite-level monster, but this elite monster is much more difficult to deal with than the Elder of the Ruins Savages. It's not that its attacks are terrifying or how high its HP is, but it has a special prefix attribute: Physical Damage Reduction Enhancement!
The blue-name monsters that strengthen physical defense, Hu Siming has seen a lot in the new world, which is nothing more than higher armor, or has a percentage of damage reduction ability. It's a bit trickier, but with a little more time, you can deal with it. But the ancient ghost lord in front of him is not so much a physical damage reduction enhancement, but a physical damage immunity at all.
Needless to say, the basic attack of several teammates, even Hu Siming's hero attack power of up to 140 points only has twenty or thirty points of damage on it!
