Chapter 20 How to fight bosses on expert difficulty
The next development was just as predicted: within a few days of returning to his hometown, he was urged by the village chief to go to the royal capital, arrived in the royal capital to meet the king and deliver ancient books, and was specially hired as a consultant for learning ancient scripts, and his daily work was to teach ancient scripts and study ancient books.
The specific process is skipped, just like the traditional magic setting, the village chief is an old man who puts the responsibility on the young man without a brain, the king is a fat man who marries a princess with a prologue to the gold coin ending, and the ordinary scholars are a group of waste wood left behind by geniuses, and there are no surprises in their performances.
- Of course, social status and power are there, and the action to save the world must still be inseparable from them.
"Mr. Lyle, what are your plans if you were to arrange the preparations for the coming war?" The pot-bellied king asks Lyle for advice.
The population of the Kingdom of Terraria is dominated by humans, and the king originally didn't want the elves to dictate him, and Lyle has always been only an advisor in the academic field, not in the state field. It's a pity that the world is changing too fast, and anthropologists are learning too slowly, and when someone the king trusts can read any ancient book on his own, it is estimated that the country will have perished, so he can only reluctantly summon Lyle.
Lyle was not unable to guess the king's thoughts, racism is an estrangement that is difficult to break, so he kept to himself, quietly studied ancient books and experimented, and stayed up until this day before expressing his personal opinion: "Your Majesty, before answering this question, please allow me to sort out the information so far. ”
"Please." The king and his confidants nodded, and they would still show some respect and patience in the face of Lyle, who was evaluated as a 'super genius' by domestic scholars.
"According to records, the great enemies of the ancient Terrans are The Twins, The Destroyer, Skeletron Prime, Plantera, Duke Pigshark, and Cthulhu." With a wave of his hand, Lyle used magic to generate an enemy image based on the text description in the ancient book and combined with his own brain, "Plantera and Duke Pigshark have been sleeping, and they will not take the initiative to leave the jungle underground and the ocean after awakening, so they can be put aside for the time being; The Three Immacha have been defeated by the ancients, but it is likely that they will be remade; Cthulhu should be the latest to fully awaken. ”
Two of the magic images were removed, and the remaining four were also in order.
"The Destroyer is an enhanced version of the Devourer of Worlds, whose shape is destined to take a huge hit." Lyle snapped his fingers and fired a small fireball that blew up the Destroyer's magical image, "I hope Your Majesty can order the vigorous production of explosives, one for each new territory of the royal capital, and set up two dense bomb trap battlefields to lure the Destroyer into it and detonate it." ”
The minister couldn't help but ask, "Why two?" ”
"Because it's impossible to determine whether the Destroyer will 'strike the center of the kingdom as the highest priority' or 'kill the strongest warriors as the highest priority.'" It may be a bit ruthless to say this, if the Destroyer is completely unintelligent and simply slaughters the Terrans randomly, then the people in other regions will basically have to wait for death.
But this is also a helpless thing, first, the production of explosives is not so easy to increase, and second, it also requires experienced fighters to lure the enemy into the trap.
“…… Explosives? It is indeed the simplest means of violence. The king approved the decree.
Lyle continued, "Although the Twins and Skeletron Prime have increased their ranged attack capabilities, the ancient records say that they are not very accurate. Combined with the Eye of Cthulhu's mode of action, I hope that Your Majesty will send an army to explore the underground and dig for cobalt blue, mythril, and titanium in infinite quantities to create a new tri-mine track with deep roots, solid structure, and no easy destruction. ”
"New Three Mine Tracks?" The top of the kingdom looked dazed.
"Of course, the track is just a platform, and the real combat core is a minecart that circles around the track at high speed." Lyle magically generates a combat model, and the figure of a minecart loops around the track at high speed, with The Twins and Skeletron Prime chasing after it but not being able to do it.
Although he didn't think it was reliable, it was better than others who couldn't come up with any solutions, and the king asked expectantly, "What about Cthulhu?" ”
“…… I'm sorry, but there are too few records about the combat power of Cthulhu's ontology that I can't make a plan. Lyle was very honest and gave an answer that disappointed everyone, but fortunately, no one on the scene was cowardly enough to give the theology of "we can't win Cthulhu anyway, so what are we fighting against?" ”
In fact, the first two sets of operations are inseparable from the four of Ah Jin, Ah Yuan, Ah Mo, and Ah Zhao, luring the Destroyer into a trap and sitting in a high-speed minecart to shoot the mechanical MONOCULUS and the mechanical skeleton prime, which ordinary soldiers can't do.
"Yes...... "The king, who had a grudge against the other four pioneers because of Ah Tou's mistakes, had to reactivate them.
"Finally, I also ask the king to order a complete ban on the Lunatic Cult, and kill every Lunatic Cultist if he finds one, their existence is too dangerous, maybe they still have information in my hands that I don't know." Lyle hadn't forgotten the religious fanatics.
Incidentally, these religious fanatics are currently working to break the Sealed Altar and make the land more suitable for the return of their god Cthulhu.

After the meeting, before the high-ranking members of the kingdom could react to the question of whether this elf's magical attainments were a bit too high, Lyle had already left the palace and returned to the former noble mansion provided by the royal family to give him this key talent...... Don't expect too much, the living conditions in the world of Terraria are difficult, even the king's palace is a poorly maintained castle, and this so-called 'former aristocratic mansion' is only a little better than staying in a hotel.
But there is one thing that makes Lyle very satisfied-
"Maid ladies, I'm back~~!" Yes, two maids were delivered with the mansion.
"I'm sorry, I'm not Miss Maid." It's a pity that it's not the gentle and considerate maid girl who is standing at the door to greet him today.,It's a childhood sweetheart with an unhappy face with her hands on her chest.。
Oh, now it's a girlfriend, and after a long absence, the two sides fell in love with each other in the days when Lyle returned to the village. Considering that the safety factor of the royal capital is passable, this time Lyle did not leave her in her hometown, and has been living together until now, and even a certain line has been crossed.
"Uh...... Fili, aren't you going shopping today? Caught in appearance, Lyle tried to change the subject.
"Shopping every day, I'm tired of it, okay?" Fili has been doing nothing since she arrived in the royal capital, and now this momentum is not suitable for going out to find a job and experience life, "This morning the neighbor complained to me that you persuaded her maid to change jobs. ”
"That's nothing, her family treats maids too coldly......" Lyle pouted, disapproving.
"After all, it's not that you like maids! The place where we live is so big, do we need a maid? Fili pointed to her boyfriend, who would sooner or later become her husband, and scolded, "Then again, you are obviously an elf, where did you learn this interest!" ”
"Like maids regardless of race, you racist!" Lyle didn't back down.
So, he was beaten.
