Chapter 38: The Great Hunt
These three scouts are Goku Xiaobu and Flying Shadow, who are not only very fast, but also have strong sensing abilities. Wukong and Xiaobu's innate intuition is very perverted, even now they have not upgraded, but they are still very powerful in nature, they can judge the strength of the other party completely by intuition.
As for the flying shadow, he is an evil eye, needless to say, the observation ability, this flying shadow embodied by the system, is still a little different from his prototype, this flying shadow's evil eye is there as soon as it is manifested, not the kind of organ that is transplanted the day after tomorrow.
So with these three guys exploring the path ahead, the level strength of those demonic beasts can be said to be clear at a glance. If a few of them encounter a sixth-level demonic beast, they will be killed directly, and if they encounter a seventh-level demonic beast, they will be killed if they can beat it, and if they can't beat it, they will lead those generals with relatively strong individual combat effectiveness, and then kill them together. The remaining demonic beasts below level five and those ordinary animals were handed over to the military formation of those small soldiers to be cleared.
If an eighth-level demonic beast is found, these scouts will return to the team behind them and tell them where they can't go where they are dangerous, and those eighth-level demonic beasts are not an even existence that the current team can place.
When the monster reaches level seven or above, it has wisdom and can think like a human. Human thinking ability does not refer to the level of arithmetic of puppies, and that level of intelligence can only be regarded as a more complex conditioned reflex of memory.
Therefore, generally Warcraft below level six often can't win against humans of the same level, because their various reactions can be speculated. And the Warcraft above the seventh level can think like humans, and their behavior is difficult to speculate, so it is more difficult for the seventh-level human to win against the Warcraft of the same level.
Level 8 Warcraft are even more intelligent, they will even think about beasts like humans think about life, and they will also study the laws of nature. In the face of the eighth-level demonic beasts, the human race has no advantage in terms of intelligence, and the only thing left is to see who has the stronger ability to grasp the power.
Now Zheng Feng doesn't have an eighth-level master here, and it is quite troublesome to deal with such a powerful demonic beast, so once he finds such a demonic beast, draw their location and avoid them for the time being to continue to act.
Because as soon as the new heroes of the war group were manifested every day, they set off directly with the soldiers, so here in the mountain city, only Han Xin and the two butlers were left behind. Han Xin stayed here to lead the troops, the soldier immortal can already command 200,000 troops when he reaches the seventh level, and the number of troops he leads alone is as much as the number of generals in a group combined, and he can basically control the soldiers here in the mountain city.
However, because all military units could not produce until the debt was repaid, there were fewer and fewer soldiers in the mountain castle, and in the end, only a group of sappers were stationed here. This restriction in production is also one of the reasons why Zheng Feng does not dare to borrow too much, in case he can't get enough gold and silver resources, the longer it drags on, the more interest will be, and the more difficult it will be, then the whole force will stagnate, no new combat units will be produced, and the current soldiers will not consume all the light sooner or later.
After the new two sets of heroes were revealed, Zheng Feng had nothing to do, but at this time, it was also the depths of winter, which belonged to the coldest time period. In this way, in the later time, Zheng Feng's main life content is his private life and listening to stories with his children.
Naturally, the two lobbyists told the story, and they originally went out to inquire about the good and evil in those bandits, but the work of suppressing the bandits was much faster than planned, so their task was changed to inquire about news and trade. And now it's winter, not the time to do business, so they're back to the cat winter.
This time, Su Zhang and the others have found a good audience, and dozens of children, plus the families of those leaders, have become fans of these two guys. Even the stories they made up were recorded by the families of some of the leaders, and then they were rumored to have gone to the cottage of the Blood Eagle.
In addition to listening to stories and boudoir fun, Zheng Feng also learned some fighting skills and intermediate and low-level martial arts during this period of time, as well as the use of some musical instruments. Originally, he was not interested in these things, his subordinates were more and more, and they were all higher than his rank, there were so many people to protect him, Zheng Feng felt that he had no need to learn these.
But now he mingled with the maids every day, and often watched them play musical instruments and dance, and naturally he learned to play musical instruments as he came and went. Now that he has learned the musical instrument, those maids who are good at dancing naturally hope that he will also learn to dance, although these maids are not yet jealous of each other, but a little envy or something, it will definitely be there.
But Zheng Feng really didn't want to learn any dance, he felt that a big man was squirming around there very awkwardly, he even felt uncomfortable and awkward to watch men dance, of course he wouldn't learn it himself. However, he also had to fulfill the little wishes of the maids, so he learned some martial arts from them. These maids who are good at dancing are all masters of martial arts, especially the female official Xinyue, who only talks about heads-up, she can now be ranked in the top five among all heroes.
This kind of leisurely and warm day has been two months in a flash. In the previous month, as expected, the advance of resources and interest was finally repaid. However, in the harvest of hunting monsters, there is more grain harvest, and the metals converted by the monsters are used to pay off debts, even with nearly 10 million tons of metals mined by the people. And there were already 20 million tons of grain left over than metal, and now there are more than 30 million tons more.
In this way, the 45 million tons of grain and 4.5 million grams of rare minerals needed to upgrade Xiaobu were enough, so Zheng Feng asked Xiaobu to come back to upgrade at that time. And after Xiaobu was upgraded to level eight, he immediately ran to find an eighth-level demonic beast to play heads-up, these days Xiaobu always wants to avoid them, and he has long been impatient.
However, the eighth-level demonic beast is powerful after all, and although Xiaobu's battle is considered a victory, he has not been able to kill the other party, because his victory method is also relatively good. No matter how Xiao Bu's immortal body is beaten by others, he is immortal, and the eighth-level demonic beast that he singled out was so scared that he ran away.
Xiaobu originally wanted to chase after him until he grinded the other party down to death, he was a child, and he completely regarded this as a game. However, Zheng Feng only gave him half a day, if this thing continued to play like this, who would hand over the reconnaissance work of the hunting area he was responsible for.
After another ten days or so, the 90 million tons of grain that Xiang Yu and Wukong needed to upgrade, and 90 million tons of metal plus 200,000 taels of gold were enough, so these two were also called back to upgrade. After they upgraded, the eighth-level demonic beast that had been entangled by Xiao Bu before was unlucky, and Xiaobu and Wukong went to find it together, making this eighth-level demonic beast the first king-level demonic beast to be killed by Zheng Feng's forces.
The king-level demonic beast is valuable, not only contributing 100 million tons of grain and 80 million tons of metal, but also leaving two horns. These two horns are somewhat like cow horns, but they are densely covered with fine lines, and there is a faint emission of energy fluctuations. Zheng Feng felt that if this thing was taken outside, it should be possible to buy it at a good price.
With this unexpected harvest, only two days later, the heroes of the fourth-level battle group needed a total of 133 million tons of food, 93 million tons of metals, and 7.4 million grams of rare minerals were also gathered. So Zheng Feng didn't hesitate, and directly let the system manifest them.
As soon as the heroes of the fourth-level combat group came out, the hunting speed of those middle and high-level demonic beasts also increased significantly, and a total of twelve of them were all seventh-level, specifically looking for trouble with those sixth- and seventh-level demonic beasts.
After that, it was another half a month, and the hunting of demonic beasts plus millions of grams of rare minerals mined by the people, even the 150 million tons of food, 130 million tons of metals and 12 million grams of rare minerals needed by the heroes of the fifth-level battle group were all gathered. Zheng Feng also did not hesitate, and let the system manifest the heroes of this group.
After the heroes of this group came out, they also joined the hunting activities of the middle and high-level Warcraft. In this way, the hunting speed of these sixth- and seventh-level demonic beasts was far faster than that of the large army hunting medium- and low-level demonic beasts. On the second day after the heroes of the fifth-level battle group were manifested, there were almost no sixth- or seventh-level demonic beasts in the millions of square kilometers surrounded by cliffs.
And the hero who was finally manifested was just running out to participate in this grand hunting event with great interest, but it turned out to be a wave of seniors who had finished their work.
The main body of this Warcraft hunting activity is basically over here, and the remaining mid-level and low-level Warcraft are not as valuable as these mid-to-high-level Warcraft. So after spending another five days encircling and suppressing the eight eighth-level demonic beasts in this range, Zheng Feng took some of the heroes out of the mountain.
Although these eighth-level demonic beasts are very strong, Zheng Feng now has three eighth-level masters on his side, plus a few heroes in the battle group who are relatively close to the eighth-level strength, there is no problem in encircling and suppressing these high-level demonic beasts.
And in this mountainous area, which Zheng Feng regarded as the rear of his forces, there was only one high-level demonic beast left. However, because Wukong and they all judged that this might be a ninth-level demonic beast, the heroes all avoided the place where it lived, and Zheng Feng also divided the huge lake of nearly 10,000 square kilometers where this suspected ninth-level demonic beast lived into a forbidden area.
