Everyone walked through the narrow path between the swamps and headed south. The surrounding environment became darker. It was evening, there were no players coming, and the road seemed a bit deserted.
A few minutes later, Nie Yan and others entered the entrance of a swamp. There were two towering watchtowers beside the road, and two NPC hunters with bows and arrows were guarding the place.
"The area ahead is where manticores roam. Passage is prohibited. You should go back quickly." An NPC hunter stopped Nie Yan and said.
"We are adventurers heading to Ogmat. We are going to find the eyes of the Scorpion Lion King and treat the injuries of Village Chief Munda." Nie Yan said according to the mission language.
"So that's it. Dear brave man, manticores are dangerous creatures. Please bring the medicine to relieve paralysis. I wish you a safe journey." The two hunters stepped aside and said.
Nie Yan stepped forward into the copy.
The temperature dropped suddenly, the cold air was filled with the smell of blood and putrefaction, and animal bones could often be seen scattered around.
The long, gray swamp is filled with the smell of rotting corpses.
A manticore nest appeared in front of Nie Yan and others. Manticores are social creatures. They often gather together in dozens or even dozens to hunt together and raise the next generation. There is often only one manticore in a manticore nest.
There are only alpha male manticores, and the rest are ordinary female manticores. Manticores are creatures with brown fur all over their bodies and sharp claws. They are very similar to lions. Their tails have scorpion barbs.
It is full of poison. If you are hit by the manticore's tail, you will lose a certain amount of blood every second and have a certain probability of being paralyzed. If you don't bring an anti-paralysis potion, the manticore will probably paralyze you to death.
Under normal circumstances, if the shields in the team pay attention to the use of anti-paralysis potions, there will be no problems.
"How many manticores are there over there?"
"I did some reconnaissance, and there were about fifteen or six of them." Nie Yan said, wandering in front of the team and responsible for some reconnaissance work.
"Fifteen or six, oh my God."
"On easy and normal difficulty, we encountered at most five or six of them together."
All the team members looked at each other. Manticores have a lot of health, especially those of leader level and above. In the past, they were attacked by five or six manticores. They were often in danger, and they would attack in groups if they were not careful.
There are fifteen or sixteen manticores in the manticore lair in front of them! Even if their attributes are increased by 10%, they cannot deal with so many manticores at once.
Nie Yan used his super insight to look at the Manticore leader and the attributes of ordinary Manticores.
Male Manticore Leader: Level 3 leader, HP 1830/1830.
Female Manticore: Level 3, HP 620/620.
Because it is an expert-level dungeon, even the ordinary monsters in it have a lot more HP and defense. If fifteen or six manticores rush in together, they will definitely destroy the group.
"It seems that the manticores all move together, do you have any good ideas?" The half-awakened fox looked at Nie Yan and said, he admitted that Nie Yan was indeed very good at attracting monsters by shooting three arrows with a crossbow, but that one
Move, it seems useless against these manticores.
The acuity of the Manticore is definitely not comparable to that of the Dryad.
"If it were left to you, how would you deal with these manticores?" Nie Yan looked at the half-awakened fox and asked.
The half-awake fox frowned. He refused to show weakness in front of Nie Yan. He thought for a while and said, "I have an idea."
How can a half-awake fox deal with so many manticores acting together? I just looked down upon him a little bit.
"Oh? How do you clean them up? I'll let you take command first. You can let me do whatever you want." Nie Yan said, stepping aside. He had to find a way to establish his own prestige in this team, otherwise the team would
If someone dissatisfied with him, he would not be able to command him smoothly, let alone face the Scorpion Lion King.
If the half-awake fox has no idea how to clean out the manticore's den, and Nie Yan takes action and speaks with facts, the people in these teams will naturally be convinced. Since the half-awake fox has a way to clear out the manticore's den, Nie Yan will be happy and free.
"Okay." The half-awakened fox thought for a moment and began to mobilize the players and arrange the formation. After all, there were fifteen or sixteen manticores. He was also a little uneasy. He looked at Nie Yan and said, "None of my people can compare with you.
Please go and lure the manticore over."
Nie Yan took a look at the formation laid out by the half-awake fox. He used nearby stones and growing shrubs as obstacles to block melee combatants. The mages occupied high positions, and the priests were relatively hidden and stood in several safer positions.
Yes, the Paladin can support you at any time.
The half-awake fox is really good at arranging formations, and can make the team exert great lethality.
"Are you sure you can handle it?" Nie Yan asked worriedly. If they faced the enemy head-on, they would only have to destroy the group. Unless the half-awakened fox had any support, he would dare to deal with so many manticores at the same time. He also wanted to see
, after all, it is an elite group of the Holy Roman Empire, how could it not have some special means?
The half-awake fox nodded seriously.
"Okay, then I'll lure the monsters." Nie Yan responded, running towards the manticores, holding the crossbow in his hand, finding a suitable attack position, and shot out a few arrows, two
The arrow hit a bush in the distance, and the last arrow hit the nearest female manticore.
The three manticores discovered Nie Yan first and rushed towards him. The other manticores were attracted by the two arrows shot by Nie Yan before. Suddenly they realized that they had been deceived and followed him.
The three manticores in front and the large number of manticores behind kept a long distance apart. This was the best Nie Yan could do.
"Not bad." The half-awake fox did not hesitate to praise Nie Yan. Nie Yan moved very fast, had sharp reactions, and some of his special skills were even more amazing.
He secretly considered whether, if he extended an olive branch, he could take Nie Yan under his wing and become his subordinate, and then give Nie Yan a position in the Holy Roman Empire. However, at the same time, after contacting Nie Yan, he also vaguely felt that
When I came out, Nie Yan didn't seem like the kind of person who would be willing to live under someone else's roof.
Nie Yan ran back, and three manticores followed him and pounced on him.
"Kangtao, block them!" The half-awake fox gave the order. Kuangtao Manjuan was the chief shield warrior of the Holy Roman Empire and the main MT of the team. In his previous life, he was also a famous shield warrior, but their brilliance
, mostly covered up by the half-awakened fox. The half-awakened fox got the Medal of Courage in the early stage, and at its peak, he even wore the Granry Divine Armor. At that time, few people in the entire server could be the opponent of the half-awakened fox.
Therefore, some players ignore the elite team behind Half-Awakened Fox. But without a superb team, how can there be such a powerful Half-awakened Fox?
