Chapter 266: Gathering Monsters
"Wolf Soul Wood."
Ji Xinghuo stood on a mountain beam, looking at the forest in front of him.
There are dozens of monsters lurking in the seemingly calm woods, their appearance is like that of wolves, their bodies more than two meters long are made of wood, their skin is rough like tree bark, and the green branches and leaves grow on their shoulders and backs, which blend with the grass and shrubs where they are hiding, and it is difficult for the eyes to spot.
However, in electromagnetic induction, it is too obvious.
Like the Sawtooth Mantis, the Wolf Soul Wood is a normal monster that is common in the Tier 1 area, but they are much better at lurking, waiting for the target to enter the encirclement before attacking.
"You need to kill 24 wolf soul trees to get 1 point of Eternal Day Merit."
Ji Xinghuo snorted.
There are only more than forty monsters in this group in total, and killing them can get 2 merit.
He pretended not to notice it, came up from the mountain beam, and went into the forest. Electromagnetic induction scans the surroundings at all times to make sure there are no other monsters.
Soon, Ji Xinghuo stepped into the encirclement of the wolf soul wood.
In the surrounding forest, dozens of monsters remained motionless, seemingly waiting for the perfect moment.
Shout!
Ji Xinghuo took the lead and pulled the crystal light gun, shooting out a high-speed beam that blew the nearest wolf soul wood and exploded the sawdust branches and leaves. In this scream, the lurking wolf soul trees were all alarmed and surrounded from all directions.
Large fields of trees and shrubs were shaking, covering the green shadows that were coming.
Wolf Soul Wood is good at attacking with the help of dense vegetation.
But in Ji Xinghuo's eyes, these tricks were useless, he stood still, the crystal light gun shot continuously, and at the same time, the muzzle of the gun turned, maintaining a high-frequency rhythm.
The direction of each high-temperature beam is different, but it can always accurately penetrate the layers of branches and leaves and shrubs, and shoot at the wolf soul wood behind.
From time to time, Ji Xinghuo turned around.
Like a long eye behind him, the crystal light gun shot out a beam of light, blasting the wolf soul wood that was only a few meters away.
The intense gunfire continued for half a minute, then subsided.
On the ground around Ji Xinghuo, more than forty wolf soul trees were shot into pieces, rushing to the nearest wolf soul wood, and the corpse was also more than five meters away from him, and he was unharmed.
"Easy!"
"That's the fight I want."
Ji Xinghuo smiled calmly, glanced at the interface of the Vientiane Star Pupil, and the spiritual source energy increased by 45 points. Open the Eternal Day Badge again, and the merit will increase by 2 points, which should be the addition of the Jagged Mantis killed yesterday to make up the required merit, otherwise it will only be 1 point.
"7 points of merit."
He turned off the light curtain of the badge, looked at the corpse of the wolf soul wood on the ground, and walked over to inspect it. Yesterday those spore bats blew themselves up, and the sawtooth mantis was also blasted into scum by laser cannonballs, and the corpses could not be found at all, and they did not know what alien species they had.
The dead wolf soul wood is like a piece of wood.
Reaching out and touching it, a message popped up in front of me.
[Monster: Wolf Soul Wood]
[Grade: Normal]
[Xenomorph: None]
"There are no xenomorphs!" Ji Xinghuo was stunned, this was the first time he had encountered such a situation, and he couldn't help but have doubts.
Don't look at the ease of shooting wolf soul wood, but their strength should not be underestimated, they are a little stronger than ordinary monsters, and ordinary monsters in the astral realm have at least one or two xenospecies. It stands to reason that it has at least a corresponding xenomorph, which is certainly not normal.
Ji Xinghuo continuously inspected the corpses of several wolf soul woods and found that there were no xenomorphs.
"Let's see."
After inspecting more than twenty corpses in a row, there was finally a wolf soul wood that was different.
[Monster: Wolf Soul Wood]
[Grade: Normal]
[Xenogene: solid wood cortex]
Solid wood cortex is just a high-quality xenomorph and is not worth much.
Next, Ji Xinghuo found another xenomorph on the other wolf soul wood, "biting", it was just a basic xenomorph, and no one wanted it for nothing.
"The monsters of the Earth Abyss Star are too evil." Ji Xinghuo collected the xenomorphs of the solid wood leather, put them into the dimensional stomach pouch, and frowned as he looked at the monster corpses everywhere.
From yesterday to now, the three monsters killed, no matter what the difference in strength is, each monster only gives 1 point of spiritual source energy, which is fixed.
Their xenospecies are also pitifully rare.
However, the strength of these monsters is not weak at all, and even faintly stronger than monsters of the same level.
The strength of the monster does not match its own gain at all.
Ji Xinghuo thought of the information published on the website of the Eternal Day Guardian, and he had guessed before that the Earth Abyss Star had been manipulated, and the plants of the entire planet were alien species. Now it seems that behind these monsters and plants, there are deeper secrets.
"In the first-level area, it should be impossible to get a large number of xenospecies and high-grade xenospecies."
"It's also difficult for spiritual energy to explode."
He thought about it, there is an advantage in the Earth Abyss Star, that is, there is no shortage of monsters, and it can absorb spiritual source energy very steadily.
If the quality is insufficient, then make up for it with quantity.
Besides, not all monsters have to be killed by their own hands.
Ji Xinghuo looked up at the sky, although his eyesight was superb, he couldn't see the space-based weapon system in orbit, but it didn't affect his mind.
With the help of the Crystal Elite laser cannon, it can also greatly improve the efficiency of obtaining spiritual energy.
He immediately thought of the game he had played before.
"Attract monsters, gather monsters."
"Make some big moves and attract more monsters."
"Try it in a safer Tier 1 area first, and only during the day."
Ji Xinghuo acted immediately.
Soon after, he found another group of wolf soul trees, about sixty of them. He still pretended not to know, and after getting close to a few hundred meters, the crystal light gun suddenly fired, and the high-temperature beam shot a few wolf soul trees from afar, and the wolf soul trees lurking around were all alarmed, howling and rushing over.
This time, Ji Xinghuo deliberately didn't shoot again, but turned around and ran.
The speed of the wolf soul wood is very fast.
However, Ji Xinghuo is faster than them, but he keeps a certain distance, and electromagnetic induction grasps the surrounding terrain and environment without throwing them off.
Between escaping and chasing, the wolf soul wood saw that he couldn't catch up, so he wanted to give up.
Ji Xinghuo suddenly turned around and shot again, shooting one or two wolf soul woods, and his speed slowed down a little, and he immediately angered these monsters again and continued to chase after them.
"That's ......"
While running, Ji Xinghuo paid attention to his physical fitness and star power.
With the current physical fitness, without turning on the rotating magnetic field to increase the explosive power, running only on two legs, will gradually be caught up by the wolf soul wood, but as long as the burst speed can be pulled away, and then stop the outbreak, maintain the rhythm, and the consumed star power will gradually recover.
There is no problem with physical fitness, I will not feel tired after running for several days in a row, and I only need to replenish a little food and water occasionally.
Glancing back at the wolf soul wood group.
They are still tireless and relentless.
The monsters on the Abyss Star all have the characteristics of plants, and photosynthesis gives them super stamina, much stronger than the average evolutionary. Many Eternal Day Guardians were dragged by the monsters of the Abyss Star until their physical strength was exhausted, and then they were killed.
Another group of monsters was found in the electromagnetic induction, which was a dozen thorny vine balls.
As the name suggests, the shape of the vine ball is a wooden ball about two meters in diameter, like a huge sea urchin, with dozens of vines growing on the surface, this vine can be soft or hard, and the end is a sharp wooden thorn, equivalent to the hands and feet of the vine ball, waving and moving at high speed.
The Thorn Vine Ball is much more dangerous than the Sawtooth Mantis and Wolf Soul Wood, and you only need to kill 12 of them to get 1 point of Eternal Daylight Merit.
They hide underground, and some of them also wrap around giant trees.
Ji Xinghuo changed direction and ran towards them.
In the distance, he raised his crystal light gun and fired a shot at one of the thorn vine balls, and the high-temperature beam shot through its core, and the other thorn vine balls were immediately alarmed, waving tentacle-like vines and rolling quickly.
Changed the direction of running again.
Soon, the Thorn Vine Ball was also left behind, joining the pursuit team of the Wolf Soul Wood.
Ji Xinghuo sped up slightly, and in the next hour or so, he found several groups of monsters in a row, wolf soul wood, sawtooth mantis, thorn pit viper, etc., and there were more and more monsters chasing behind him, which was mighty, like a train, causing great movement.
Even the monsters, which were more than a dozen kilometers away, were alarmed.
And then it all came together.
Ji Xinghuo had long discovered that there was some kind of connection hidden behind the monsters of the Earth Abyss Star. Even different monsters seem to be subject to the same will.
Sure enough, a group of sawtooth mantis and two other groups of wolf soul trees appeared from the front at the same time, and the electromagnetic induction sensed that they formed an encirclement and blocked all their paths.
Looking into the distance, beyond the range of electromagnetic induction, there are more monsters coming.
Ji Xinghuo continuously changes direction.
The monsters that surrounded it were immediately adjusted.
"Who's directing them?" Ji Xinghuo's heart was slightly cold, this is a phenomenon that is difficult for ordinary people to find, and no one mentioned this situation on the forum of the Eternal Day Guardian.
But now is not the time to dig deeper.
More and more monsters are gathering, and in the electromagnetic induction, the number of monsters within a radius of a few kilometers has exceeded 5,000!
The encirclement of the monster group is getting smaller and smaller, compressing Ji Xinghuo's escape space.
Spore bats also appeared in the sky in the distance, not as many as yesterday, but there were also two or three thousand, whistling and flying. Unless they explode at full speed, no matter how much they run, they will be caught up by the spore bats, and once they rush to the side and blow themselves up, it will be troublesome.
"It's time to harvest!"
Ji Xinghuo slowed down, adjusted his bearing, and fled into a large clearing in the forest.
This is the place he has chosen before.
At the same time, a large group of sawtooth praying mantis rushed from the front and blocked the way, but Ji Xinghuo had no intention of continuing to escape.
His gaze froze, and he started to think about overclocking.
Psionic unleashed!
The spirit sword bracelet on his left wrist snapped off, turning into four half-meter-long handleless swords, blue, red, purple and silver, and the blue ice sword chill exploded, and eight identical ice swords condensed next to it, making the number of flying swords reach twelve.
Ji Xinghuo was multitasking, and the twelve flying swords burst out with various sword lights, flying towards the two or three hundred sawtooth mantis that rushed up first.
The flying sword shot like twelve colored threads flashing.
And Ji Xinghuo himself also raised the crystal light gun, aimed at the monster and fired, and the high-temperature beam and the killing of the sword light burst out almost at the same time.
Kavin was really in pain, bang, bang, kowtowing to everyone to apologize.
