Chapter 757 The first battle of the underground world
The underground world of Toril, except for the war started by the dark elves, has probably never been so lively.
The roar of people was mixed with loud laughter and the neighing of various mounts.
Of course, the undead can ride horses on a passage that allows an ancient dragon to pass easily... So they will not be dissatisfied because the road is too long. After all, most people can take advantage of this opportunity to do other things... such as
Play mahjong and chess on their tablets.
The reporters were happily counting the little games everyone was playing. Hill was not interested in this spring outing-like atmosphere, but the goblins were watching intently and regretted that they were not among the team.
However, they also knew that there was no place for goblins in the underground world. If something went wrong and left them behind when the undead were fighting, it would be useless for them to cry.
So they were just chattering about what kind of traps were suitable for this road, and even Pickle, who was best at making people get lost, couldn't help but join in the conversation.
Hill picked up an unread book and started reading it slowly. Although the books sent by the Hubbell family were all popular products produced by Candlekeep, it happened that the great library of Candlekeep was temporarily cut off from the mainland of Faerûn.
Hill suspected that this was also related to the various ghost guards hidden underneath them.
When the mage master has the absolute upper hand, the undead have always been very useful...but once the mage's ability declines, undead rebellion is the norm.
Candlekeep has been able to stand on the continent of Faerûn for so many years because the scroll mages will hand over control to the next archmage in time when their magic power slowly declines... But now, no one can accept this situation.
class.
Candlekeep is now focusing all its energy on suppressing its subordinates, and of course it has no plans to open its doors to welcome guests. The only good thing is that the next door neighbor has turned into an elf.
Otherwise, they may have to receive a visit from pirates on the Moon Shadow Islands.
This period of time is indeed like a nightmare for a pure magic net mage...reexploring the characteristics of the magic net again is not only difficult but also dangerous.
I don't know if I did something wrong, and I might be hit directly in the head by the burst of primitive power.
Hill decided to read these books carefully before copying them with copying techniques... He didn't want Fran to find out that after reading the tens of thousands of books in his study, Hill still didn't know the contents... The dissatisfied Alchemist
The master might ask Hill to copy all the books.
According to the tradition of the undead...the twenty families with the highest merits took turns to be the driver. When Hill looked up occasionally, he also saw the bald lolita with black roses...he liked to wear a black dress.
In order to be a qualified driver, I wore a bright red tutu this time.
Knowing that there was a bald man underneath the cute little girl, Hill immediately lowered his head and continued reading.
White dragons are not very patient creatures, so the underground passages that make Alausato willing to go down and rob are not so long that the undead cannot bear it... Even if someone is leading the way, those who follow are still
I can endure it for so many hours.
"Ah! I saw the enemy!" The little goblins shouted in surprise, which made Hill raise his head again.
The first wave of enemies in the underground world that the undead come into contact with are ground stinging insects.
There may have been some underground races here that were good at digging holes in the past, but due to the appearance of the white dragon, they had to move. These long and complicated tunnels were eventually occupied by ground-spurring insects that could not see the edges... Hill knew for the first time
, hissing and chirping, two originally low-pitched sounds, can actually be so noisy that it is unbearable... This shows how many these bugs there are.
The undead were quite happy, even a few bugs were better than nothing, so they quickly blew the loud horn to wake up those guys who were addicted to small games.
Hill suspected that this trumpet team was created by the young master... Most people would not come up with so many kinds of brass trumpets, and even the suona was just one of them.
He must have considered the issue of the echo in the underground world before forming this team... At least even the stinging insects were too scared to scream... Until the undead in the front row put away their horses and took out their big shields and stood up, they
Only then did they gather to charge again.
Although the undead's defense measures were quite sound, at least the first batch of poisonous stingers were blocked by their defense knights... But they ignored that this bug was very good at attacking underground.
So a roar quickly came from the team behind: "There are bugs underground!"
"Open your shield! Shadiao!"
"Where does this idiot come from to launch a group attack in a crowd?"
Although the chaos was quickly calmed down by the team commander in the crowd, a group of undead were still sent back to the hidden town, and they had to climb the mountain again... Although the ground stinging insects rushed into the crowd, their
The damage really doesn't necessarily kill anyone. These poor guys are all sent back by those who use group attack spells.
Especially considering their position, those who did such things must be members of their own family, so these guys could only curse and set off again.
The people at the front, although facing a more dangerous battle, are also more organized. They are analyzing what skills these giant beetles have.
Acid splash and sting attacks are by far the most common... These bugs also have powerful claws and are known to attack in small groups.
The undead soon discovered that once the biggest ones were killed, the smaller ones would die, but their power would be much reduced, so they started roaring to kill the big ones first.
At least without the strength bonus, these small beetles can basically be killed by the shield's reflected attack... The knights who don't trust the aiming of most mages would prefer them to hit the target with a bigger target.
This was a fierce encounter... Hill even spotted the figure of the king of the ground stinging insect swarm. This huge and ferocious beetle would definitely give Alausa a headache even if he came down from it.
And as long as the king of the swarm still stands there, the ground stinging insects will fight to the death... Hill closed the book in his hand and looked at the battle situation carefully.
What the sting bugs are most afraid of is a large number of corpses of the same kind... Once the number of deaths exceeds their tolerance, they will quickly retreat and move.
But the King of the Swarm, who was watching the battle in front of him, had neither the intention to join the battle nor the desire to retreat... In just a short time, the undead had killed at least tens of thousands of bugs.
And the undead are still trying to push forward to the wider crypt, so that those behind can also have a chance to join the battle... This kind of bug is a mixture of mortal, reptile and hell bloodlines by tiefling wizards.
The creatures are not completely devoid of intelligence. It is impossible for them not to be able to observe the group of undead behind them.
So at least according to the estimation of the King of the Swarm, it has a chance to consume so much meat... Even if tens of millions of bugs die, as long as all the corpses of these elves can be left behind, they will definitely be able to breed more.
More and more powerful bugs.
Hill feels that the undead may have to face the first swarm with over 100 million evolved insects. According to Hill's observation, the king of the swarm is at least level 18... You need to know the initial level of this thing.
Generally only level 10.
The undead team was still pushing forward steadily, and Hill nervously held his hand, feeling a little uneasy.
Even if they knew that the result of their death would be to just run the same route for a few hours again, or to give up the reward of the battle and wait for the establishment of the first underground camp... But this kind of large group war is easy to get excited.
The little fairies also watched with bated breath, not even daring to say anything.
After the undead killed tens of thousands more bugs, and the first three rows of defensive knights had even occupied the middle of the cave, the king of the swarm couldn't bear it any longer. He raised his head and chirped twice loudly,
He jumped up high and hit the knights.
The defensive knight desperately raised his shield: "@#! So powerful!"
"Quick fix! Quick fix!"
"I can't squat, I can't squat! Where's the dwarf! Get to the bottom and get to the top!"
The chaos in the front distracted the long-range professionals in the rear. They were trying to target the huge bug, but they were also worried that they would become enemies, so they were all squeezing forward.
The ground beneath their feet suddenly exploded at this moment, and twisted and weird figures suddenly sprang out and rushed towards the chaotic crowd.
"Ahhhh! A monster has entered the crowd!"
"I@!toxic!"
"Detoxify! Water method! Detoxify quickly with wood method!"
"Priest! Increase the blood!"
"Shit! No wonder the priest has no hands!"
"Hurry up and fight! What nonsense!"
"It's so fast!"
Hill sighed softly and leaned on the sofa.
Ground stinging insects have always only killed living creatures, so where they appear, there is rarely life...but there may be undead creatures.
Hill originally suspected that such a huge swarm of insects might be controlled by some intelligent undead. Although the method of controlling ground stinging insects disappeared with the demise of the tiefling empire... it was not completely immune to being controlled by the undead.
Discovered again.
No wonder the king of the swarm stood motionless at the end even after so many insects died... In its eyes, the undead's struggle was more like dying, so it stood firmly at the end.
But if their trump card is the zombie, there is nothing to worry about... Any humanoid creature killed by the zombie will turn into another zombie after 5 minutes. This derivative has no abilities in life, but will
Controlled by the wight that created it until destroyed.
Such a sudden attack would be a disaster for any Toril army, but the undead... they are not flesh and blood.
The only thing that will be affected is that the negative effects created by the zombies are relatively large, which is the current bleeding state of the undead... But the undead have a large number of detoxification professions... It doesn't matter even if these crooks target the wrong person, there will always be
