Chapter 282: A Black Hole in the Depths of the Swamp

Generally speaking, killing monsters should be inexperienced.

It's the same as killing critters.

Because although the monsters have powers comparable to those of the transcendent, they do not actually have a clear transcendent rank. Their level in the game is only the level of "what kind of transcendent is their power equivalent to".

Although Ivus doesn't remember the setting of "experience" very clearly, he also knows that "free experience" is actually related to the power of the path that naturally escapes when killing and expelling opponents in the heat of battle. Because the power of the path will naturally flow from a higher place to a lower place, and the system only plays a role in opening up the receiving channel.

But basically, experience can only be gained by killing someone who is stronger than you, or at least one level of transcendence.

Therefore, it is also essentially a ritual of "transcendence".

This is very much in line with the player's "son of the snake father" premise - to gain power by transcendence.

Therefore, the experience given by killing the transcendent is usually not as good as dispelling the illusion of the same level. Once the illusion is dispelled, the power in the body will disintegrate; However, it is also possible for the Transcendent to be transformed into an undead when they die, and if they are dispersed, they will usually gain less Path Power.

And these monsters are all special creatures with no consciousness and no sanity. They are inexperienced.

They resemble some kind of illusion, but are not actually born in the dream world, but are native creatures to the material world.

Just like the transcendent of the first level, he may not be able to beat the wolf; Most of the transcendents of the second level can't defeat fierce beasts such as lions and bears; Even if it is a third-level transcendent, it is very dangerous to fight an adult giant elephant with bare hands.

It is not until from the fourth energy level that the transcendent can have a sufficiently obvious individual advantage.

Monsters are a little more special - they are indeed born with the power of the path, but they do not have enough intelligence to rely on instinct to use them.

Because of this, they can't strengthen their power through means such as dreaming or occult skills, and they are still beasts in nature.

It's just that in addition to the dimensions of "teeth", "muscles", and "weight", the power of "Path Power" is additionally obtained.

In this world, whether or not you can dream directly determines whether it is possible to become stronger—all creatures that can't dream mean that they can't connect to the dream world, and they can't get stronger path power.

If the beast master was still around, the situation would be different. But now that the beast master has left his position, and the controller of the path of love is the moon god Heng I, these beasts have lost the possibility of going further.

Therefore, even if the level is one energy level higher than theirs, the monsters can still be hunted safely.

Transcendents, as well as transcendent creatures such as griffons and demons, will consciously make up for their weaknesses. But the monsters are different.

Monsters, while very strong in one direction, can also be weak in others.

Like the collision of a mud tortoise, it is equivalent to the equivalent of a lead-hearted villa rushing at a speed of about one hundred and twenty miles; Or the equivalent of a four-hundred-ton dump truck charge.

It basically only takes one hit to kill anyone but Whina on the spot.

This is undoubtedly the power that the transcendents of the fourth level can exert.

However, it can be easily killed if it can directly damage its inner core - through the crust on its back, or if it can bury a trap on the ground to attack upwards from its relatively fragile abdomen, or if it can shoot through the "flesh" part like Sherlock.

The hunters of Black Hawk make a living from it. A well-trained and well-equipped hunter can even kill monsters over two or even three energy levels. And the materials on the monster's body can be sold for a lot of money - biological materials with natural path characteristics, whether it is alchemy or rituals, they are useful.

Bullying these beasts is undoubtedly not a transcendent move. Therefore, even if you skip the level, you won't get any experience - you can increase the level of the hunter's mystical skills.

Iwass didn't know if he was able to gain experience from monsters because the monsters here were special, or because times had changed, and he could indeed gain experience from monsters.

In order to test the idea in his heart, Ivus has already launched a hunt-

Hunting monsters is a simple matter as long as you have enough intelligence. Mud turtles feed on skeletal animals, undead spirits, and silt. They usually disguise themselves as swamps, half-asleep with their mouths open, motionless and waiting for the unconscious spirits or animals to come and fall on their own.

The earth elemental mana condensed into a vortex will make the surrounding swamp extremely viscous, and it will be difficult to get out if you fall into it.

- In this sense, Sherlock disturbed a mud turtle because his spell was tantamount to pulling its tongue out.

There are about four or five mud turtles in a litter. They live in groups because they need each other's strength to form a swampy area that is large enough.

In this half-asleep state, they do not take the initiative to attack. This is enough for Ivus to arrange a complex curse ritual on their faces, and to use the curse to kill them in their sleep without disturbing them.

……

Really experienced?

Ivus raised an eyebrow.

Can monsters that don't enter the battle give experience?

Generally speaking, if the transcendents are killed before they enter the battle, they will not provide experience to Eivus. For example, Lawyer York, who was assassinated by Ivace, or President Tommy.

But these monsters not only provide experience, but they provide exactly the same experience. That's not right...... Even if it is an extraordinary person of the same energy level, or even the same level, the experience given is random within a range.

- Only minions give a fixed experience.

That's kind of interesting.

Ivus tentatively used the Purifying Fire to disperse several passing headless skeletons. As a result, no experience was gained.

As they stayed in the swamp, the fog around them began to get heavier and heavier. I don't know how long it has been, but the white mist has completely obscured the surroundings, and some undead have begun to appear in the swamp that only appear at night.

Take the Night Knight Rider, for example.

Cautiously making sure that there were no other knights around, Ivas quietly summoned the Flame Butterfly, and used the Purifying Fire to easily disperse a lone Night Knight Knight.

[Expelling the Night Knight and gaining Free XP 64]

This experience is normal. That shouldn't be a problem with this place.

It wasn't until Ivus killed a third-level "swamp ghost" that he finally discovered the anomaly-

【Expelling the Demons in the Swamp and Gaining Freedom XP 84】

The Swamp Oni are the spirits of those killed by the swamp, their swollen bodies covered in toxic sludge and capable of spewing disgusting putrid mud like vomit.

This is a very ordinary undead spirit, and it doesn't have much combat power. However, it gives a lot more experience than the night knight of the same level, who is a warrior......

"You say there's something wrong with the swamp?"

Sherlock frowned, "It's not because there's that in there...... Mud tortoise? You've already cleared the inside, haven't you? ”

After seeing Ivus kill all the mud turtles, Sherlock wanted to leave. Because it is unpleasant to move around in the swamp, not to mention the white fog around you that makes you feel sick and nauseous.

But Ivus still dragged him and let him accompany him to kill three more in and three out. Killed all the undead you could see several times.

Now hearing Ivus's words, Sherlock only felt outrageous: "Do you still want to chase into the swamp and kill?" Is this a red-eyed killing? ”

"It's called a bug reproduction."

Ivas said confidently: "If we can reproduce it, it means that we have caught the problem." You're going to grab an elemental creature from the swamp and see? If we've killed all the mud turtles, you wouldn't feel resistance anymore, would you? ”

"Lines, Lines, Lines......"

Sherlock couldn't resist Ivus, so he could only respond helplessly: "Hurry up and leave, I already feel like something is on my face......"

He reached out again, pointed his fingers at the largest swamp, closed his eyes and prepared to summon the mud eagle again.

But soon Sherlock's face changed. His hand flicked off as if it had been electrocuted, and an earthy yellow bolt of lightning crackled on Sherlock's right arm, causing him to tremble violently.

- Failed to cast a spell.

But in an instant, the surrounding fog dissipated.

I saw that the swamp suddenly moved—like a flushing toilet, and suddenly flowed towards the depression in the middle. Along with the white mist around them, they were all sucked in.

At that moment, the air became fresher, and the vision seemed to light up suddenly. Sherlock gulped in the fresh air, even feeling a little moved.

Soon, these swamps were completely "ebbed".

Only a large black circular hole in the middle remains.

The hole was about ten meters in diameter and very smooth at the edges. Even the intersection of the ground and the hole is a sharp right angle.

The hole was lower than the terrain on which Ivus was located, and was surrounded by a smooth plane that sloped downward like a funnel.

Lily asked Ivus for advice, "Shall I take a look?" ”

She has "lies" that can pull her body, so she is not afraid of stumbling and falling in.

"No, let's leave."

Ivus cautiously rejected Lily's words, "This is not where we should be now. ”

Because he already recognized what it was......

At first, they guessed that Eagle Cape Village was a fairy forest, so they couldn't see it from the outside; Later, it was discovered that it was a mysterious lock formed by some special twilight force here, which disturbed the timing of Eagle Cape Village.

— but now, the possibility of the first guess has returned.

Because this funnel-shaped black hole that suddenly appears in the swamps, the bottom of the lake, and the depths of the snow is called the Fairy Cave - it is the portal to the Fairy Kingdom!
