Chapter 421: The Attacking Wolf Tide

As the commander of the camp, Adam will not be involved in the drop distribution. As long as they can hold the camp in the end, the academy will naturally not be stingy with rewards. Therefore, he generously gave up the distribution and gave up the drop of the golden lord to the four people.

This generous act naturally attracted the favor of the four people.

But then again, there was a reason why Adam made this decision. First of all, this lord was discovered by Hu Siming, and they also made great efforts when they killed it. If there is to be a distribution, the four of them will inevitably take the majority. A golden lord will drop two or three valuable things when he reaches the sky. Even if he wanted it, it would be difficult to get a good deal, and it would cause dissatisfaction among the four of them. Rather than this, it is better to be smart and take the initiative to let go and gain a good reputation.

After receiving the four's thanks, Adam knew he had got what he wanted. He personally stood on the floating island in the southwest corner of the camp, glanced at the four people who were falling with a faint smile, and then his expression turned grim again, and looked up into the dim distance.

It is said that the Dire Darktide in the New World has a cycle. Although it is not excluded that there is an exception for a certain year, it is roughly a 10-year cycle. In the first few years of each round, the Dire Darktide is relatively small in size and destructive power, and gradually increases in size in the final years. In recent years, the Dire Darktide has reached the second half of the current cycle. It is said that this year is the eighth year of this cycle, and I am afraid that the scale of the Dire Darktide will be extraordinary......

Before leaving, the words of the former senior and now the Stormwind City Lord, who maintained a cooperative relationship with the Academy, echoed in his ears, making Adam's heart feel a little uneasy.

But soon, his cold and tenacious nerves forcibly suppressed this uneasiness. The camp has been set up and garrisoned, and now suspicion and regret will only shake one's heart, and will not help the victory.

I just hope that I can hold on until tomorrow morning!

.........

The Great War is imminent, and every piece of equipment or consumables can increase their combat power. Because of this, the four of them were very concerned about the drop of this lv17 Golden Name Lord, and touched it to open it with great anticipation.

Only two rays of light emerged.

The first seems to be a special material, round and with a faint fishy smell.

【Stinging Snake's Corrupted Poison Sac】

Intermediate grade material.

It can be used to enchant trinkets, add special abilities, and sell them to the Academy to gain 250 Universal Points.

In many cases, the effect of the enchantment is closely related to the monster ability of the dropped material. Coupled with the name of the material, the four of them thought of the effects that might appear with the enchantment, such as the added toxin damage, or the corrosive armor reduction effect similar to the strong corrupt liquid.

Although the situation is not suitable now, and there is no way to immediately transform it into combat power, its value is unquestionable.

If you want to add toxin damage to jewelry, it seems that anyone can ask for this. But in case of nail reduction effect, there is only one person who is most suitable for it. Seeing Yan Shaoou, Xu Guang and Shi Niu looking at him together, Hu Siming was not hypocritical, and reached out to put away the materials. If you can really lose your armor, it will be perfect when combined with your talent.

You must know that the special effect of the hero's equipment [Annihilation] is only -7 armor.

In addition to the materials, the second item is a dissected stone rune with a lifelike image of the Corrupt Serpent Lord on the middle section.

【Corrupted Serpent Lord's Spirit Mark】

Consume items at once.

After use, summon a lv15 Corrupt Stinger Elite (green name) to help in the battle. The Corrupt Stinger Elite has three abilities: Drill (a blow that breaks this state has a stun effect), Strong Corrupt Liquid, and Strong Strike Aura.

The Corrupt Stinger Elite saves 180 seconds.

"It turned out to be a summoning item......

Although I think it's a pity, but after thinking about it, this is not necessarily the worst. If it's equipment, the four of them will definitely not be enough, and the summoning props will be nothing, maybe they will be used directly later, and it will be the same for whoever they put there. Of course, they inevitably have to complain, obviously it was the lord of lv17 who fell, and as a result, the spirit summoned shrank as always.

"Team Hu, what's going on, so happy?"

Wang Sihan, who was also defending the stone wall on the west side, secretly paid attention to this side, and when he saw that the four of them were divided, he paced over slowly, probably wanting to take advantage of the last gap to pull the relationship.

There is no need to tell him what exactly has been dropped, but there is nothing to hide about killing the lord, Hu Siming smiled and roughly said the matter of the corrupted stinging snake lord. When he learned that Adam personally brought people to reinforcements, Wang Sihan couldn't help but be a little surprised and a little annoyed.

"We also met a lord, why didn't you expect it at the time......"

Wang Sihan thumped his chest, obviously regretting that he had missed the lord, but no matter how you look at it, there is a bit of exaggeration. It is estimated that he also knew that if it weren't for the fact that the Corrupt Stinger Snake Lord was more special and too threatening, Adam would not have taken it lightly.

Hu Siming naturally saw this, knew that the other party was deliberately enlivening the atmosphere, and didn't care, chatting with him without saying a word, and paying more attention to the deployment of the camp.

The defense line on the north and south sides is left alone, that is what other students need to worry about, let's just talk about the west defense line. Less than 100 steps away, there are a total of seven defense towers, of which three arrow towers, three catapult towers and one frozen tower, which is the most defense towers among several defense lines. In addition, a total of twenty treant soldiers and druid mages also stood on the stone wall, waiting for them.

In addition to these forces, ten druid mages were also placed on the floating island not far from above. Their range covered the entire southwest corner of the camp and could provide fire support about half the width of the defensive line.

Obviously, when the camp was originally selected, the surrounding beast tide and the purpose of this floating island had been taken into account.

Reasonable planning, coupled with layers of strength, has made the camp now have a strong defense. The monsters that came sporadically under the Dire Dark Tide could barely even touch the edge of the stone wall, and were killed by the three-dimensional blow and fire.

The last half hour!

The sky was getting darker and darker, and it wasn't much different from the usual dark sky. Prepared for this, Adam ordered the Treants to light a large number of braziers and torches in the camp and forward defenses, with special fuel that would keep them burning all night and be extremely difficult to extinguish, in addition to dispelling the fog of war. This ensures that even at night, the students' vision will not be affected in any way.

The crackling and beating flames faintly emitted an aroma similar to rosin, which made the students strangely gradually calm down.

"Woooooo

In the distance, a group of wild wolves howled, and their voices were full of poignancy and bloodlust.

During the day in the Corruption Lair, Hu Siming had heard it more than once, and it was clear that they were Lv11's corrupt jackals. When moving on the desert, he is almost never alone, and he hunts other monsters in groups. And at this moment, listening to the wolf howls one after another, there are dozens or even hundreds.

Such a voice inevitably brought pressure to the students.

Adam, who was standing on a floating island overlooking the camp, had a grim face like water. A few dozen corrupt jackals were nothing in his eyes. Having experienced several major wars, he knew very well that these jackals who came and went like the wind were nothing more than the vanguard of the real beast tide, and they were the appetizers before the feast was served.

"All on alert!"

Watching the waves in the distance begin to rush towards the camp, he finally spoke in a cold tone in the team's communication channel. The hint that was explained before also popped up again.

"The Dire Tide is coming, the public space is open, all loot is automatically handed in, and students are absolutely forbidden to attack each other (including any suspected framing)!"

With this prompt, dozens of wolves arrived on the outskirts of the camp. With the help of the blazing brazier, the eleven students on the stone wall on the west side could clearly see the corrupted jackals. They have brownish-green eyes, and they stop outside the boundaries of the pits, magic traps, and they don't move forward. Being stared at by so many monsters with infiltrating eyes, some students couldn't hold their breath, and their eyes were a little more erratic and flustered.

"At least sixty or seventy!"

Xu Guang's nerves were very large, and he touched his forehead and counted the number of wolves. However, it can be seen that his body is also a little nervous and trembling, after all, it is the first time to experience such a big scene as the Dire Dark Tide.

"Ahhh

"Lots of sludge golems!"

Around the same time, there were also inhalations and exclamations from the stone wall to the south. Obviously, in these two main defensive directions, a large number of monsters have appeared as the vanguard of the beast tide.

"It's coming!"

I don't know who shouted, and the sky suddenly darkened at that moment. The twin moons that shone on the whole of the New World completely disappeared from the night sky on this night, and the fog of war spread silently from all corners. The corrupted wolves seemed to sense something, and they all became agitated, letting out a long howl that seemed to spread all the way to the end of the horizon.

A strong sense of uneasiness came like a tidal wave, and everyone knew that the Dire Darktide was really coming!

It was bound to be the longest night they had ever been at school.

Countdown to dawn: 11 hours and 59 minutes.

A minute after dark, there is no more force that can stop the corrupted wolves. They circled and retreated, trotting and accelerating, until finally they became a brownish-gray wolf tide and screamed and pounced on the stone wall on the west side of the camp.

Roughly sixty percent of the students who were assigned here were actually experiencing the Dire Dark Tide for the first time. Until then, the battles they had experienced had been small scenes, and it was already difficult to have a dozen monsters lunging at them. This time, in the face of sixty or seventy corrupt jackals who were not afraid of death, although they knew that it would be impossible for them to break through the defense line, many students were still nervous, and a lot of fine beads of sweat oozed from their palms.

What's more, what makes them even more disturbing is that the magic traps that were supposed to be laid out are not triggered when these wolves cross by.

What's going on?
