Chapter 25: Battle Mode

"Lu Yao, Lu Yao?"

Sister Peng reminded: "Give me a copy of this month's report, and I'm urging it." ”

"Ah, right now."

Lu Yao passed the report over, pinched the bridge of his nose, and felt a little tired.

"You look tired lately." Sister Peng quipped while printing materials: "What's wrong? Doing a side hustle after work? Or went outside at night to get high? ”

Lu Yao could only vaguely say that he hadn't slept well.

……

Recently is a critical period for the development of the garlic tribe, and Lu Yao has been staring at the screen, not daring to relax.

Taking the initiative to destroy the passage in the mountains and cut off trade with the Yanchi tribe, the garlic tribe needs another passage to contact with the outside world.

Theoretically, there are three paths.

Head north through the forest and into the northern world.

Cross the East River to the east and enter the East China Sea.

Head south into the desert and reopen the oasis.

Of the three routes, the Forest Road is the most treacherous. That's what Isabel said.

"My lord, there are forest elemental creatures in the depths of the forest, their number is unknown, and some of them are very aggressive. Even if you can open up a path, there may be elemental creatures harassing you at any time, and there will be hidden dangers. ”

Furthering east to trade and sail on the water required the development of better shipbuilding, and canoes could be used for fishing and water movement, but could not support long-distance navigation. It takes time to build bigger and stronger ships.

Comparatively speaking, the desert is the best option.

The Bedu tribe has lived in the desert for many years and knows the environment well. The dangers in the desert lie in sandstorms and harsh climates, as well as desert monsters and bandits.

Among the many dangers, the desert monsters are the biggest threat.

The so-called desert monster is a giant bug called a "sandworm".

It lives underground in the desert and is as large as a giant earthworm, with a rough, tough, yellowish-brown skin that cannot be harmed by stones and wood. The sandworms, which hunt camels and devour and digest all kinds of hard stones, are the giants of the desert and an irresistible scourge for the Bedu tribes.

The most important thing is what Isabel said to Lu Yao.

"When I was looking for the Bedu tribe, I slaughtered a bug."

Lu Yao was suddenly alert.

- Can you deal with those bugs?

"My lord, do you want to kill them all?"

As soon as Lu Yao heard it, he realized that there was a play.

- Hunting sandworms is secondary, and the primary purpose is to recapture the oasis and open up the passage from the desert to the outside world. Of course, it is best to minimize the number of sandworms.

"Yes, sir."

- Do you need support?

"My lord, the treasure you have given me is enough. These bugs are not difficult to deal with. ”

- Okay, let's go.

……

When he got home from work, Lu Yao sat in front of the computer in a hurry and locked his perspective in the desert area.

The desert had expanded into vast new areas, and Isabel had found the oasis that had been occupied. Around her was a pile of long, yellow-brown insect corpses, only the upper half of which was exposed to the desert, looking like the fingers of giants poking out of the ground.

Isabel has a "In Battle" display above her head.

Lu Yao clicked on the Apostle continuously, and a detailed battle screen immediately popped up, and the originally relaxed electronic music also turned into a fast-paced and passionate style.

Isabel in black confronts a group of brown bugs, but only two of them are still alive. Both sides have their own health bars on top of their heads.

[Isabel LV15] VS [Sandworm LV10] [Sandworm LV11].

Battles take on a real-time auto-chess pattern.

Isabel wields a green lightsaber and stabs two sandworms. Balls of green light flew out of the lightsaber, and they bombarded the sandworms in a tracking style.

Lu Yao thought of the description of the Forest Sword's ability.

Forest Sword Lv1: [Isabel's Exclusive Ability] Isabel summons the Holy Sword, which comprehensively amplifies combat attributes, and the duration and amplification depend on the ability level and mana.

This green lightsaber should be the Holy Sword.

It was the first time Lu Yao had seen Isabel turn on the serious battle mode. In the past, against the barbarian heroes, Isabel was able to blast and kill with only a steel pipe, and it was completely impossible to use her abilities.

It can be seen that sandworms are stronger than barbarian heroes.

Sandworms are somewhat like gophers, and can dive into the sand and emerge from unexpected directions. They attack by spitting out a black venom that can be sprayed from a distance.

It's just that Isabel moves and attacks too fast, and in front of her, the sandworm attack falls on her to show a long list of misses. And Isabel's holy sword slash and green light bombardment, the sandworm can't dodge at all.

The health bar on the top of the sandworm's head is rapidly decreasing, and the one with the lower level has emptied its health bar, and the symbol of [Death] is displayed on the top of the head.

Lu Yao moved the mouse over the living sandworm.

……

【Sandworm LV11】

Health: 101/220

Mana: 16/44

Damage: 8

Defense: 8

Speed: 5

[Evade Lv5]

Can dodge damage from some attacks. This probability is higher than that of one's own weak life.

【Poison LV5】

Attacks cause enemies to be poisoned, dealing damage over time.

……

It turned out that there were also detailed combat data.

Lu Yao moved the mouse back to the top of Isabel's head.

……

Apostle Lv15: Sword of the Forest: Isabel

Health: 220/224

Mana: 271/385

Damage: 27

Defense: 25

Speed: 15

【Wisdom Lv.15】

Wisdom was the key to the apostles' listening to the will of God. The higher the level of wisdom, the easier it is to improve and comprehend various abilities.

Dying Prayer Lv. 5 (15 Mana)

Pray to the Sea of Dying to temporarily awaken the sleeping dead and thus gain help from the dead. The type of dead depends on ability level and mana.

Forest Sword Lv1 (100 Mana)

【Isabel's Exclusive Ability】Isabel summons the Holy Sword, which comprehensively amplifies combat attributes, and the duration and amplification depend on the ability level and mana. After the battle, Isabel will create a number of Forest Elemental creatures, the number and variety of which depend on the level of ability and the strength of the target fighter.

……

Lu Yao observed for a while, and generally understood the combat mechanism of the simulator.

The simulator simplifies combat and turns it into a way to visualize stats and abilities.

Isabel is three times faster than the Sandworm, which is why the Sandworm's attack has the effect of not being able to hit. But under Isabel's attack, the number -19 keeps popping up on the sandworm.

Lu Yao calculated, Isabel's damage was 27, and the sandworm's defense was 8, and the subtraction of the two was exactly 19 points. If you don't have special abilities and equipment, as long as the attack can hit, the direct damage dealt is the difference between damage and defense.

In actual combat, the gap between the basic values of the two warring sides is too large, and there is no ability to restrain them, and the battle scene is one-sided.

It's like a sandworm facing Isabel.

Even if the sandworm attack hits, it can't break through the defense, and the result is already doomed.

As the last sandworm's health bar clears, a hint of [Battle Over] appears on the screen.

At this time, Isabel plunged the holy sword into the ground.

Rays of green light emerged from the corpses of the many sandworms, and these green lights burrowed into the holy sword, gradually distorting, forming two furry reddish-brown creatures, all of the same rank and species.

……

【Zebrabra Lynx LV10】【Isabel Creation】

Health: 182/182

Mana: 55/55

Damage: 9

Defense: 4

Speed: 9

【Quick Strike】

Can attack more often.

【Stealth】

If undetected while sneaking, the first attack on a creature will inevitably have a [Bleeding] effect, and [Bleeding] will continue to reduce the opponent's health.

【Forest Elemental LV1】

Forest elemental organisms are beneficial to the rapid growth of forests, and all attributes in the forest have increased. The effect depends on ability level and health.

……

Lu Yao was excited when he saw it.

The Sword of the Forest has finally been successfully launched!

In terms of abilities and attributes, the brindled lynx is clearly an assassin who is good at ambushing and sneak attacks, and has a fast speed of damage. The grade is not bad, either.

"My lord, I have a request."

Isabel said, "They are too weak to follow me for any purpose, but they can protect the humans of the garlic tribe in the forest." ”

"Can you send all the weak elemental creatures you create back to the forest first, so that they can continue to grow? Wait for the number to accumulate a little more, and wait for them to grow before they can come in handy. ”

Lu Yao thinks it's feasible.

Gathering troops in a wave is also a classic tactic.
