Liu Yifei now finally has a clear understanding of how difficult the S-level expedition mission is to connect the continent. The opponents encountered on the first and third floors of the mine are enough to make Liu Yifei very anxious. This goes deeper.
After entering the "underground cave" on the first floor, Liu Yifei suddenly felt like "there is no way out despite the mountains and rivers, and there is a village with dark flowers and bright flowers"!
There is a huge contrast between hell and heaven. Even the top demon may not be able to adapt as quickly as Liu Yifei...
"Kao~ Minotaur! The biological troops on this floor are all Minotaurs! I kao~~~I kao~~~Who can stop me this time! Hahahaha~~~" The ability to accept is strong enough
, but my nerves have become somewhat abnormal...
We have said before that the Minotaur-type creatures at the fifth level of the dungeon are very powerful ground warfare creatures. They have large yields, strong attributes, and have very impressive fast breakthrough capabilities. They can often use unexpected morale explosion opportunities to instantly break the enemy.
The battle layout that has been painstakingly laid out for a long time has opened up a breakthrough for one's own side from the entire situation.
And compared to the high-level vampires of the ghost tribe, the minotaur-type creatures have attribute suppression effects like innate natural enemies, and are not opponents that ghost lord players are willing to fight against.
However, all the above are based on the fact that both sides of the battle are in a fair environment.
First, the Minotaurs Liu Yifei encountered before were definitely not ordinary. They were fifth-level and eighth-level Minotaurs with double-edged axes! The top-level existence among Minotaurs is the main attack and the strong attack type of the killing branch.
combat creatures, plus there is a level 12 n
PC hero leader, although the other party cannot provide any lord magic reinforcement or help for the Minotaur, at least the existence of this NPC can really improve the Minotaur's combat AI by at least two levels, and will not let them commit some very low-level mistakes.
mistake.
For example, Liu Yifei sent a team of thousands of skeletons to attract firepower. Yes, as long as you don't feel bad, there is no reason for the Minotaur not to eat it! But if you only send one or a few small skeletons, then unless
It is a rookie minotaur that is a wild monster and does not have an advanced leader. Otherwise, it will end up being ignored...
Second, although low-level Minotaurs give slightly less experience than higher-level ones, the number Liu Yifei can see right now is too huge! If he pushes them over quickly, the income will definitely not be as high as what he encountered before.
The team that arrived was comparable.
Third, long-range firepower, Liu Yifei's long-range firepower, the Minotaur will definitely not be able to throw out the thing he uses to eat and hit people. In that case, the Minotaur without the ax will probably be similar to a tiger without teeth.
So what I’m talking about here refers to Liu Yifei’s subordinates.
It should be noted that when the war started, Liu Yifei only had all the fifth-level troops equipped with 500 well-equipped skeleton shooters. At this moment, although Liu Yifei had lost a lot of elite troops in the previous third-level mine, he still had at least 1500.
It's no problem to have a skeleton shooter, and all the suits are available.
With such a formation, facing countless "cowards" in front of him, Liu Yifei felt as if he had already seen a large amount of lord experience, and mercenary experience was waving to him warmly~
What Liu Yifei didn't see was that because the combat intensity had always been very high, and low-level creatures would get extra experience discounts for destroying mid- and high-level creatures, the distance of his 1500 first- and fourth-level skeleton shooters was now upgraded to
The fifth-level Skeleton Hunters are not far away, and to be honest, it won't take much time for them to upgrade to the second-level Corrupted Sacrifice for that group of 80 fifth-level and first-level dark mages.
In great excitement, Liu Yifei immediately led all his troops and pulled the nearest group of fifth-order and first-level Minotaurs into the fighting space. These groups of Minotaurs were divided into two teams, each with a number of 119.
, from the outside it looks like there are actually two teams of "large groups" of Minotaurs, but Liu Yifei has a rough understanding of the system's troop deployment after the hard battle in the previous three levels of mines~
First of all, generally speaking, there are definitely more creatures in the upper cave layer than in the lower layer. After all, the monsters going down are higher-level and more powerful. If there is an explosion in number, then there is definitely no need to fight and just pack up.
It's most convenient to go home.
Secondly, in a single layer, the biological troops near the entrance are more numerous than the troops inside, but generally the opponents are first- and second-level low-level beings, and the high-level opponents are those in the cave layer.
, not many, but the overall strength is very strong, but Liu Yifei needs to be careful.
It was precisely because of his quick grasp of the rules that Liu Yifei just saw that these first-level Minotaurs were divided into two "large groups", and immediately classified them into the ranks of "paper tigers"! According to the system's habits, if there are really
If there are so many "niu niu" words, they will be divided into
The upper limit is five teams! After all, this way there are fewer targets for opponents to use magic to restrict, and the chance of breakthrough is greater, which is in line with npcom (no heroes, no officer-led wild monster biological troops are the same as the most junior player lords, the highest is only
Can be divided into five teams)
The result of the battle was just as Liu Yifei expected. After focusing all his long-range firepower on a group of Minotaurs, Liu Yifei could beat his opponent to a semi-disabled or even severely disabled state in just two rounds. He would be unable to take care of himself for the rest of his life.
Then the Vampire Viscounts, who had been watching eagerly for a long time, pounced on him and bit him, directly killing the opponent.
And the Minotaur team that had not been hit by long-range attacks before did not necessarily have an easy life.
Since Liu Yifei did not need to directly suffocate the targets of the first team that were hit by long-range attacks in the middle of the road, he could quickly withdraw his long-range firepower and instead target the team of Minotaurs that had almost just crossed the center line in the third round.
, at this time, what the enemy has to suffer is the baptism of unadulterated full-kill long-range attacks~ The Minotaurs' attrition rate is simply unbelievable, and they often fall to the side of the road collectively before they can run any further.
Of course, Liu Yifei was not completely unprepared for all possible emergencies.
The most unpredictable thing about Minotaur-type creatures is that they don't know when they will suddenly explode in morale, and then come back from the brink of death to give you a death blow. Even if they can't kill you, they will tear you apart.
A piece of meat is always something they are happy to see.
To be honest, Liu Yifei really didn't have any solution for such trouble.
In the stand-alone version of Heroes of Might and Magic 3, the Minotaur's morale special effects are very annoying. Even with the ghost clan's strategic secret treasure - "Suppression Elf", it is impossible to say that it can 100% guarantee that the Minotaurs will not explode in morale. At this time, Liu Yifei
There are no means at hand to restrict others.
Liu Yifei's solution is to install "insurance" for himself. Since he is unable to limit the cause, he can only seek to minimize the losses caused by an accident and control it within the range he can bear, so that he can still have enough power to
Keep killing monsters.
Compared with the first-level skeleton shooter and the fifth-level dark mage, the dark mage is naturally countless times more precious! Especially for Liu Yifei, who does not have a mausoleum now, the hundreds of fifth-level long-range creatures under his command are almost
It’s out of print and will definitely be a rare treasure in the short term~
Therefore, Liu Yifei adjusted the Blood Viscount to be next to the dark mage. The target of long-range firepower attack priority is also the minotaur opposite the dark mage. This can ensure that even if the minotaur opposite the dark mage has a morale explosion, there will be no chance to rush over.
He was maimed and then targeted by the Vampire Viscount. Under such circumstances, the fifth-level creature had no chance of surviving.
And even if the Minotaur on top was full of morale and rushed over, the only ones killed by it were some skeleton shooters. Liu Yifei's loss was purely some gold coins used in the production of skeleton shooter sets. The other losses were really nothing heartbreaking.
But Liu Yifei would be very unwilling to simply give the other party the opportunity to touch him!
So he transferred a good number of first-level skeletons to the skeleton shooters, and asked them to charge decisively after the war started. After blocking the opponent's path, the Minotaurs would either stop and give priority to destroying this group of daredevils.
The little skeletons that block their way forward can either take a detour in a small semicircle and then kill them. However, this will just delay the minotaurs for another round of action opportunities, and they will be attacked by the skeleton shooters and dark mages who are all killed.
It is also a very happy thing once!
As for the situation where the opponent is divided into more teams, it will be easier to handle!
Don’t forget that Liu Yifei’s intermediate tactics have a formation time after each battle begins. If the enemy dares to use multiple soldiers in one wave, Liu Yifei won’t mind being a bit clumsy and fighting back with a turtle style!
All the troops are huddled in the lower left corner of the map. After guarding the long-range troops in the middle, they can use the speed of the fourth-level Vampire Viscount to harass and attack the enemy troops. Anyway, the total amount is about this level. The more groups there are, the more powerful the bullheads will be in a single group.
The fewer monsters there are, the better it will be for the Vampire Viscount!
Therefore, although the opponent is absolutely powerful, and compared to the Medusa on the previous level, the total combat effectiveness of the Evil Eye hybrid long-range troops has increased a lot, Liu Yifei is actually much more comfortable on this level than on the previous level!
Not only did he dare to continue sweeping all the way through the mine like the second level, but the intensity of each battle was much less. Liu Yifei also had the life-saving "Add" and "Slow" magic in his hands. Once there was any change, he could immediately
As an adjustment and remedy, this place can almost be said to have become a hotbed for him to accumulate strength!
Not long after the battle, Liu Yifei received several upgrades of his troops one after another, which greatly helped Liu Yifei's strength increase, and also allowed him to avoid a lot of obstacles in the process of brushing the fifth-level Minotaurs in the underground cave.
combat attrition.
First, Liu Yifei's subordinates had been reduced to the last 1300 first-level and fourth-level skeleton shooters. After a battle, a system prompt suddenly sounded in Liu Yifei's ears, clearly telling him that these 1300 subordinates had been upgraded to first-level and fifth-level skeleton shooters at the same time.
Super skeleton hunter!
Because Liu Yifei possesses a lord stunt and a lord skill that complement each other, the number of skeletons he can summon is always very large! In addition, this kid has brought home countless skeletons from large-scale battle missions, and his territory is simply
It is almost filled with small skeletons of skeletons! There are no less than 300 first-level skeletons accumulated in almost every castle.
Brandt's efforts over the past month are obvious to all. Although his work was relatively idle at the beginning, as Liu Yifei handled the internal affairs more and more in an orderly manner, the development of the entire territory flew forward like a rocket.
, which also makes Brandt's workload heavier and heavier, and he has to brush n number of wild monsters every day.
His soul-calling effect is naturally incomparable to Liu Yifei~
However, it is more complicated to train a first-level skeleton into a fourth-level skeleton shooter. Therefore, in more than a month, Brandt not only trained thousands of skeleton shooters for Liu Yifei to take to the battlefield to fight for more territory.
In addition to its development advantages, it has also added a lot to the backlog of skeletons in the territory!
However, the workload of upgrading Skeleton Hunters is obviously much greater! And since the number has not been accumulated, the Hunters will not only be used as the main force by Liu Yifei in the early stage to grab speed, but also in the later stage, they will expand territory and attack cities and seize levels.
Most of the time, Liu Yifei was used as a target to attract the firepower of the turret.
Therefore, the training rate of the skeleton hunters is far from keeping up with the consumption rate. If Liu Yifei had not completed the territory expansion early and arranged the "firewall" lord, his territory could be in a relatively safe and stable environment.
Recuperate and recuperate, then
During the "melee period", he will definitely face the embarrassing situation of having a strong backbone and missing the vanguard. He will not be able to seize the advantage. No matter how strong he is, he will always suffer losses. If this goes on for a long time, a strong man will lose his bones and a macho man will lose his strength.
It is not impossible to become a scholar.
It was precisely out of the desire to relieve the consumption pressure of skeleton hunters and give the ghost tribe some time to gather a group of skeleton hunters in the local territory to prepare for emergencies that Liu Yifei chose skeleton shooters from the beginning this time.
Unexpectedly, by unintentionally teasing Liu Liu Chengyin, he would suddenly have 1,300 more skeleton hunters.
1 point of maximum damage and 1 point of increase in degree attributes are still very effective, especially with a foundation of over a thousand, Liu Yifei now feels more confident when facing these "cute cows"!
But the speed of training 1300 Skeleton Hunters in one day is too terrifying!
At present, the vast majority of lord players have entered the Connected Continent, and most of them are still at the stage where their expenses exceed their income, and they need to constantly consume their gold coins to purchase troops from system cities or transfer troops from their own territories.
To develop within a clan, you still need to constantly conquer levels and defend against sneak attacks by others. The consumption is greater than the battles on the homeland of each clan. There are not many people like Liu Yifei who can make obvious profits, not to mention, Liu Yifei has made far more money.
That's not all...
4 minutes after the Skeleton Archer is upgraded, he goes out with the army (actually he got it for free from Soul Recalling. Liu Yifei filled up the reserve force column and was reluctant to lose it, so he simply put it in the attack force column. There is not much mercenary experience anyway.
)'s more than 1,000 first-level skeletons have all been upgraded to second-level strong skeletons, and the mercenary experience accumulation is still very fast!
11 minutes after the Skeleton Shooter was upgraded, 80 fifth-level and first-level dark mages who had accompanied Liu Yifei in the battle for a long time were also upgraded to second-level fallen sacrificers. The 5 HP bonus is still a very good upgrade reward!
It took nearly an hour and a half again before Liu Yifei managed to clear out all the Minotaur troops in this underground cave. This was based on Liu Yifei's strong troop strength and fast advancement. If it were another person,
Even if his military power can be continuously replenished, he may not be able to capture the entire cave in less than two and a half hours. Of course, he must be able to endure the darkness, loneliness and the boringness of repeated operations...
"Huh~ It's finally done. There's so much oil and water in this cave! If I had the opportunity to do this once a day, wouldn't I be able to gather 355 top-level fourth-level vampires and a lot of money very quickly?
I’m a level 5 skeleton hunter? Hahahahaha~~~ The system shouldn’t smash such a big piece of pie over my head, right? It’s better to take advantage of the opportunity to eat more~ lest I pass this village without this.
I regretted it when I went to the store! Wow hahahaha~~~”
After eliminating three teams of fifth-level and eighth-level (top-level) tauren ancestor soul servants blocking the way, Liu Yifei once again saw the familiar underground passage leading to a deeper level.
This time there was nothing to hesitate about. Liu Yifei could think of what he would encounter below just by using his toenails. Although that thing was powerful, it was not a big trouble for him. In essence, in fact
It is not much different from the Minotaur, and it also lacks the extremely annoying and uncertain biological special effects of morale explosion, which allows me to better grasp the battle situation.
After entering the passage, the system prompted Liu Yifei this time, saying that he had entered the "deep cave below" and discovered the existence of the source of evil darkness. The signs of activity of the "high-end existence" had been identified, and he could return to Ghost Clan Lieutenant General Sura.
I have received the mission reward from Mr. Meese, and the follow-up plot of the S-class adventure mission is waiting to be touched ~
"This system is so shady~ It's clear that it just wants people to run in both directions to exercise or something? It seems that if I had accepted the task and ran directly back to Sulamis to report the situation, he would still have asked me to take further steps.
Exploring this mine, I won’t complete the mission until I reach the deep cave below and go back to collect the reward. Humph~ No one would do this. It would take me a few hours to run back and forth. Fortunately~ Fortunately, I just went straight to it.
Coming down..."
While muttering, Liu Yifei began to observe the entire cave layer that he could clearly see.
Perhaps because of entering the deep cave, the fluorescent plants living here are getting rarer and rarer. There are always two or three sparsely gathered together, and the little bits of fluorescence emitted can probably illuminate the surrounding half-meter-wide space. Liu Yifei's exploration
The terrain's help was very limited, and what he relied on was his own infrared vision ability.
"It's strange. The small map clearly shows that there are two red dots moving not far away. How do you see it..." Liu Yifei suddenly thought that he was wrong! Then he compared what he saw in front of him with his own
The characteristics of the creature he guessed were connected in series. Liu Yifei looked up in surprise and saw at the edge of his sight, in the boundless darkness, there were two huge shadows slowly flapping a pair of large wings on both sides of the body in the air.
Circle in!
To be honest, the area of this deep cave may not be as vast as the underground cave on the upper level, but it is even higher in height. Liu Yifei estimates that it must be twice as high as the upper level.
Just looking at the thick and almost irreversible darkness makes people feel uncontrollably sad...
Although the Harpy monsters on the second floor of the underground mine were flying units, their short wings were not enough to support their bodies to stay in the air for a long time, so most of the time they were just among the stone pillars and on the cave walls.
Jumping up and down is not really flying.
But this time Liu Yifei really saw a real flying unit! Even when he was patrolling on the big map, he was flying in mid-air, which was awesome!
Although his vision was blocked by the thick darkness, Liu Yifei could still see many things from the blurry shadow.
The body is as huge and majestic as a lion, the tail is raised high like a mutated poisonous sting like a scorpion's tail stinger, and the sound of wings beating the air when flying!
Due to the high requirements of Longsheng Group, the entire Heroes of Might and Magic OL game is made extremely realistic, even the color of each item and the difference between the different timbres of each sound are done very well!
When Liu Yifei pricked up his ears, he knew that what was flapping was definitely not some kind of wings, but real membrane wings similar to those of a bat!
Perhaps to other players, the sound of flapping wings does not sound much different. Even if there is a difference, it is very vague. The difference seems to be larger, but the precise reason cannot be explained.
But for Liu Yifei, this is completely different!
On the world map, he has as many as two kinds of summoned creatures with similar wings! Due to layer problems, the vampires are not very big when they turn into bats, so it is difficult to compare, but the corrupted flying dragon is
It's completely different. Liu Yifei has been riding this thing all over the map almost every day for a long time, and he is very familiar with the sound of the membrane wings beating the air that always rings in his ears!
Therefore, who else is flying slowly in mid-air in front of me besides the powerful creature of level six in the dungeon, the manticore?
"Haha~ Sixth-level creatures! So, it's impossible for this number to appear in large groups, right? Since it has entered the ranks of high-level creatures, the number must be strictly limited by the system! Counting the suits of skeleton hunters, there are 3-
5 kills, minus two points of overall kills
Just enough to cause damage! Haha~ It seems that this time the system can't even give a big gift~ Maybe, I can directly train a group of skeleton shooters~" Liu Yifei looked at his team of thousands of
The skeleton soldier who had been upgraded to level three smiled and said...
