Chapter 10: Day 1
It was approaching evening.
Hede and his party had been in the reserve camp behind the third line of defense for several hours. Although it is a temporary camp for reserve troops and volunteers, it is still quite logistically secure, especially the hunters' spontaneous squads can also receive rich supplies.
Eating slowly with the broth at the right temperature, Hade noticed that the silver-haired female apprentice who had been silently in charge of cooking just now was a little depressed, and kept lowering her head to bite the dry food in her hand, and she didn't even notice that the wooden bowl containing the broth in her other hand was pouring out the broth, and she looked very absent-minded.
"Des?"
"Sister Desi?" The purple-haired girl Sima also noticed that Des was very wrong, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she was pulled away by Uncle Majik with an excuse, and it seemed that Uncle seemed to know a little bit about the inside story.
The silver-haired girl came to her senses, put down the wooden bowl in embarrassment, looked around, and saw that only Hade was beside her.
"Look at your expression, it seems to recall some unhappy past......", Hade looked at Des's face, it was the first time he saw her show such a lost expression, you must know that even when she lost her ability due to alienation more than half a year ago, she did not show such a low mood.
Des hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "My parents, in fact, they ...... because they encountered the tide of darkness that formed in the early stage when they were out hunting."
I see, Hade sighed slightly, and looked at the silver-haired female apprentice who fell silent again after saying this, Hade wanted to say something comforting, but he couldn't think of a suitable word for a while.
After a long time, Hade spoke, "Des, do you believe that there is a place for people to return after they die?"
The silver-haired girl was slightly stunned, raised her head to look at Hade, and shook her head slightly.
"I don't know who said it, it is said that after a person dies, he will go to a place called Heaven to continue his life, and it is said that Heaven is a good place to be peaceful forever without fighting," Hade said slowly, "and after the death of the monster, it will reach a place called Hell, which is a place that is countless times worse than the environment of the Black Stone Forest, and those who enter Hell can only suffer in it forever." ”
"Paradise...... , hell ......" Des silently reflected on these two unfamiliar words.
"That's probably it," Blade thought to himself if the changed version of Soul Destiny was convincing, and continued, "I think you'll do your best to send more monsters to Hell in your lifetime, and you'll be doing your best for your parents." ”
The silver-haired girl was silent for a long time, but did not respond.
Tsk, I always felt that these words had no effect, and Hade was a little depressed about his clumsy eloquence, and stood up awkwardly to add a spoonful of broth, but heard Des say something softly.
“xiexie。 ”
Looking down, Hade found that the gloomy look on the face of the silver-haired girl sitting on the rock had faded, and although it was still the usual very cold expression, it was obviously much better than the mood just now.
Apparently having regained his composure, Head nodded slightly, looking up at the vicinity of the first line of defense, where a defensive campfire had been erected in front of him.
At the beginning of the lamp, everyone was still quite concerned about the various small groups of demonic beasts that escaped from a distance from time to time, but they got tired of watching too much.
Every time the tide of darkness in the various monsters, monsters, and insects, they are particularly ferocious and cruel. Unlike the usual wild monsters, which instinctively choose to flee in the face of a large number of human soldiers or hunters, they will be extremely bloodthirsty and rush to launch a furious attack on the humans in their field of vision.
What exactly caused this anomaly in Warcraft, and how the Tide of Darkness actually formed its scale, these questions are still inconclusive.
This time the tide of darkness is far beyond usual, I don't know what the Elf Elph Empire has done, even if it is a small number of monster clusters that have fled, most of the monsters will suicidally attack the human army that is strictly guarding the defensive line, strictly speaking, they can only be regarded as suppressed and have to retreat, not exactly a rout.
On the first line of defense, the human troops are not under much pressure in the face of these small numbers of monsters, and they will often deliberately introduce some monsters that are not lightly injured and the threat is greatly weakened into the rear defense line, so that the soldiers in the second line of defense can also warm up slightly, take the opportunity to train the inexperienced soldiers, and boost morale with actual killing results.
And the hunter volunteers behind the third line of defense who have been gearing up have also made gains from time to time, and the demonic beasts that can "break through" the two lines of defense to reach this area, even if they were originally fifth-order and sixth-order powerful monsters, they are already scarred and dying.
Experienced hunters, of course, will not let go of this opportunity, and under the leadership of some of the more famous hunters, they laughed at these "gifts" in batches. After all, although they are volunteers, these hunters are still people who care more about money. Listening to what the guards who led the way for Hade and the others said, volunteer army-type troops, the crystal nuclei obtained during this kind of war, and other useful parts of the Warcraft do not need to be handed in.
"The generals of Roland City are very good, although these small details may seem unimportant, they are very useful. Even though he wasn't a master of military strategy, he could see that these subtle treatments were very beneficial to the army.
After wandering around casually, returning to the simple tent erected by his group, Hade took out the crystal nucleus needed for his cultivation inheritance from the leather bag he carried around his waist and prepared to eat.
Generally, after reaching the fifth order, especially the specialized cultivation inheritance, the absorption efficiency of the crystal nucleus is much greater, because the source power in the cultivator's body at this stage is already pure enough, and it is easier to accept the external source force and it is easier to fuse the source power in the crystal nucleus, simply put, the digestion is more thorough.
Moreover, above the fifth order, you can consider the method of adjusting the crystal nucleus consumption formula to get more other characteristics, such as most people choose a composite crystal nucleus with elemental attributes, and take the path of magic and martial arts.
The crystal nucleus formulas taken at different strength stages are very different, and in addition, it is necessary to absorb the source power according to the inheritance direction of the cultivation, and it is possible to take various special auxiliary formulas. Therefore, it is pointless to obtain the crystal nucleus formula by peeking at the high-level crystal nucleus types taken by high-level powerhouses, not to mention that there is no corresponding cultivation inheritance, and the body of a person who cultivates other inheritances cannot adapt to it at all. It's like throwing a chick off a cliff to force it to fly before it has even grown feathers on its wings.
Recently, in order to diversify the means of attack and add more beneficial hole cards in many sudden situations, Hade has increased the proportion of high-level poison slime crystal nuclei to be consumed, so that he can produce the source power of the poison attribute.
Although there are some restrictions on dealing with enemies, elemental monsters are completely immune to poison attacks. However, it is very effective against most bio-type Warcraft, as well as humans and elves. In particular, the source of poison power attack consumption is relatively low, and although it is relatively weak in terms of direct destructive power, it is a useful means in many ways.
"The power of infinite erosion is indeed huge, but the consumption of source power is too exaggerated. Hade was thinking about the problem of cultivation, slowly taking the turquoise crystal nucleus one by one, but found that there was a line of sight staring at him next to him.
Looking sideways, it was indeed the one of the Insecter family who gave Hide a bit of a headache.
This child who still can't tell the gender of Hade is also eating a crystal nucleus with a pitch-black color, and Hade can roughly determine that it must be a magic insect crystal nucleus above LV80 at a glance.
"The crystal nucleus you are taking is very special. Less than five meters away from Dead, Eudreda said crisply.
"Well, you too. ”
The little nobleman with purple curly hair smiled slightly: "I'm really looking forward to your demeanor when you fight." ”
"......," Hide replied a little helplessly, still lukewarmly, "I'm also looking forward to seeing His Excellency Eutririda in battle. ”
"There's a chance. After saying this, Eudri Tririda turned her head to look southwest, "It seems that the mainstream of the Dark Tide has begun to approach. ”
