The four handsome swordsmen continued to sit on the ground and chat.
Didn't spawn monsters.
Because all the monsters from this angle were taken away by Xia Zhi and others...
Under the thick fog, a few small figures could be vaguely seen fighting with the herd of beasts in the forest.
The arrogant wild wolf sighed with emotion: "I always thought that we had fought hard enough, but I didn't expect that there would be more fights."
The dashing swordsman was serious for a rare moment, and his tone was uncharacteristically lonely.
"Many people envy eldest brother's friends and students. In fact... eldest brother's friends and students are not that easy to be. eldest brother is too dazzling, that's why he is eldest brother. Even... calling him eldest brother is too high."
The higher the level, the fewer the number of card makers.
By the sixth level, basically every good card maker will be surrounded by many equally good card makers.
They are a team.
The relationship between them may be friends, lovers, or something else.
Just like Lu Beibei always has a Lu Maomao by his side.
There are many kinds of relationships, but one thing remains the same.
The strengths of both parties must be equal.
Need to be at least on the same level.
Otherwise, we are not even worthy of being friends.
Zhiyuan: "But I feel like eldest brother doesn't dislike us?"
Taoist Black Cat also nodded and said: "Brother has no airs and often opens the back door for us."
The lonely wild wolf: "Which back door?"
Zhiyuan: "?"
"We're talking about business, don't drive!"
The lonely wild wolf: "Oh."
Zhiyuan continued: "I guess that eldest brother will definitely arrange things for us to do in the future, but isn't that what we should do? After all, we are also greedy for eldest brother's legendary star card... Putting aside this matter, eldest brother is also very good to us.
Well, if someone else asks Big Brother to make a card, they have to wait in line for a year."
The dashing swordsman sighed: "You still don't understand."
This is not a question of whether the eldest brother considers them friends or not.
It's a matter of whether they deserve the word "friend".
The arrogant wild wolf patted the handsome swordsman on the shoulder: "I believe a word now."
Dashing Swordsman: "Huh?"
The Lonely Wild Wolf: "The more interesting a person is, the more miserable he becomes when he is sad."
The dashing swordsman: "..."
The arrogant wild wolf grinned: "Why think so much? Just work hard and you'll be done!"
Zhiyuan also smiled: "Yes, life should be positive, although I don't know why it should be positive."
Taoist Black Cat looked at the students in the forest: "When you say that, I seem to know why they are working so hard."
…
"Xia Zhi, be careful!"
Xu Tuantuan roared.
A person has only two hands and one pair of eyes.
The field of vision is limited and the attack range is also limited.
When surrounded, it's difficult to look in every direction.
Xia Zhi heard Xu Tuantuan's reminder and reacted immediately.
But the long period of high-intensity fighting had made her body a little tired and sluggish.
After killing the monster queen who looked like a rhinoceros with a sword.
It's too late to look back.
Four faint blue diagonal lines streaked through the air.
"Chi!"
The huge bear claw tore open the shield and slapped the girl hard on the back.
It brought up a cloud of blood and dyed the dense fog in the forest red.
Xia Zhi was sent flying out, hit a tree trunk, and fell heavily to the ground.
The girl is already petite.
It was even more vulnerable in front of the three-meter-tall black bear.
When this claw went down, it left more than just blood marks.
The girl's entire back was torn and bloody.
Xu Tuantuan's eyelids jumped when he saw it.
He wanted to go over and help, but he couldn't get away.
He is also facing the siege of the beast tide.
Not to mention him, even Fukada Yongxin and Su Xiaoyan were also caught in a fierce battle at this time and had too much time to take care of themselves.
They didn't attract as many monsters as Xia Zhi.
"it hurts……"
Xia Zhi bit her lips, put her hands on the ground, and her body was trembling slightly.
The black bear is approaching, and other fast monsters are about to pounce in front of it.
She only has time for one bottle of medicine or one healing card.
You must stand up immediately and continue fighting.
Otherwise, once completely surrounded by a herd of beasts, the situation will become even more dangerous.
Xia Zhi still has half of the star power left in her body, which is enough for the time being.
You can recover from your injuries first, retreat while fighting, and find opportunities to adjust your condition.
But it takes time to adjust.
Xia Zhi felt there was no need to waste this time.
A few minutes were enough for her to kill dozens more monsters.
So she chose to fill up her star power.
Fighting the severe pain in his back, Xia Zhi quickly took out a tube of star power potion, roughly broke off the cap of the glass bottle, and poured it into his mouth.
The palm of my hand was scratched and bleeding without even realizing it.
Then he picked up the giant sword and charged forward again.
…
This wave of beasts still only lasted about half an hour.
After killing the last monster, Xia Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.
The feeling of exhaustion suddenly came over her, making her whole body weak.
Xia Zhi put away her giant sword and let her body fall backwards.
She wanted to lie down and rest for a while.
But as soon as his back touched the ground, he felt an indescribable severe pain.
"Ahhh! It hurts!"
The wound rubbed against the ground covered with gravel and weeds. Xia Zhi felt dizzy and almost fainted from the pain.
The delicate facial features on the little face became distorted.
He quickly turned over and lay on the ground.
"Xia Zhi, are you okay?"
Su Xiaoyan rushed over and saw the girl's bloody back, her heart tightened.
There was also a dull pain in my back.
"Why don't you heal your wounds first?"
Su Xiaoyan felt distressed and angry: "You don't want to die, don't you?"
"Stop scolding, stop scolding..." Xia Zhi looked at Su Xiaoyan pitifully: "Xiaozhi, please help me with the Holy Light Technique first, or you will leave scars if you drag it on..."
Su Xiaoyan: "Even if you risk your life, you still want to be beautiful?"
Xia Zhi said aggrievedly: "I am also a girl. How can a girl not love beauty..."
Su Xiaoyan glared at Xia Zhi and took out the card to heal Xia Zhi's injuries.
One after another, the holy light shines.
The wound on the girl's back healed quickly.
The blood covering the entire back also formed scabs.
Fukada Naganobu and the little fat man came running out of breath.
Before she could approach and ask about the situation, Su Xiaoyan drove her away: "You go and clean the battlefield first."
"Oh." If you say that, it should be fine. Fukada Yongxin and Xu Tuantuan immediately turned around.
Su Xiaoyan then walked up to Xia Zhi, squatted down, and helped the girl clean the blood marks and stains on her back.
"Thank you for your hard work, Xiaoyan." Xia Zhi said gratefully.
"If you continue to be so reckless, be careful as I snitch on Coach Gu." Su Xiaoyan said.
"No, no, no!" Xia Zhi quickly promised, "I will pay attention next time!"
Su Xiaoyan snorted and said no more.
Soon, Xia Zhi's originally shocking back became smooth again.
The delicate and smooth skin is like mutton fat and beautiful jade, with no blemishes to be found.
The girl's back was very beautiful, but Su Xiaoyan suddenly thought of something.
"Where's your soft armor?"
They privately called the [Silva's Guardian] given by Coach Gu the soft armor.
Although it actually looks more like a halter top.
Very thin and very close fitting.
However, clothing equipment cards are generally called "X-A" to make it easier to distinguish them from ordinary clothing.
Calling the card by its name is too difficult to pronounce, so it’s more customary to call it Soft Armor.
Xia Zhi blinked: "I didn't wear it on purpose, so it would be faster to reduce the damage and stack it up."
After the fourth level is upgraded to the fifth level, the physical fitness can be improved again.
Su Xiaoyan gave Xia Zhi a crazy look, and then said: "Then I won't wear them either."
After saying that, he took off his cotton-padded clothes to block Xia Zhi from the light.
"Let's go back and change clothes."
"Uh-huh."
…
The tide of beasts comes every hour.
Half an hour to spawn monsters and half an hour to rest.
The first night in the Neverwinter Forest.
It passed in this repeated battle and rest.
And the next day.
Sixteen other students also joined in.
Lei Meng led by example and followed the students to fight in the beast tide.
No extra rest time.
Eat, take a bath, sleep...
They can only be completed within thirty minutes between each wave of beasts.
Hell-level training is no joke.
But even so, Xia Zhi would still find time to find opportunities to cook for Gu Ci.
The sister of a time management master also learned to manage her own time.
However, Xia Zhi’s management projects are relatively simple.
Except for Brother Gu Ci, it’s just training.
Gu Ci, who didn't have to fight monsters, didn't have an easy time at the beginning.
It takes a lot of brainpower to understand the rules.
At the same time, we must find ways to obtain materials for the witch-robed people.
After being stolen a lot.
Although the man in the witch robe did not shout loudly to catch the thief.
But he was much more cautious.
I always brought the sack with me when collecting materials.
Gu Ci took advantage of them to fight monsters.
He sneaked into the tent invisibly and touched up all the materials they had painted before.
When the witch-robed man came back, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
But still there was no word.
He just took this loss as a dumb loss and suffered it.
Very high tolerance.
Gu Ci even doubted whether the deputy positions of these guys were Ninja Turtles.
It is both shrinkable and tolerable.
the third time.
The witch-robed man specially left one person to guard the tent.
Gu Ci used [Melatonism] and took away the materials again.
the fourth time.
The witch-robed man left two people to guard the tent.
Attention height hits.
A man was sitting in a corner, his face full of vigilance.
Gu Ci simply snatched it away.
It's time to test the bottom line of these guys.
He waited until the witch-robed man outside collected the materials and prepared to return to the camp.
Just knock him out with a sap.
Grab it and run!
Star Dance is numb.
She never thought about it.
One day he would actually be associated with a robber.
And he also fell in love with this robber...
I'm going to die, oh oh oh.
After all, Gu Ci never found out the limit of the witch-robed man's endurance.
Only the three of them were targeted in the entire camp.
It made the witch-robed man feel like he was being watched.
——Not the material, but the identity.
The other party seemed to be deliberately irritating them.
The more this happens, the less angry you can be!
Tolerate!
You can't bear it anymore, you have to endure it again!
For two days in a row, they spent time angry, frustrated and worried.
On the third day, Gu Ci completed his understanding of the second rule.
Finally I stopped torturing them.
The witch-robed man brought the materials back to the tent smoothly.
And it wasn't stolen.
For a moment I cried with joy.
The devil finally let them go...
Day four.
Three witch-robed men spent the night brushing up materials.
No one dared to fill the sack.
Taking advantage of the break in the beast tide, he left the Neverwinter Forest.
Now the camp is full of our own people.
The tide of beasts continues.
It lasts longer than Lei Meng imagined.
Five days have passed and there is still no end to the trend.
Students' sleep time is seriously insufficient.
After finishing the wave, several people couldn't stand it anymore and fainted directly outside the wall.
They spawned monsters and did not rush into the forest like Xia Zhi did.
Everyone is together and can take care of each other.
Even if you faint in the middle of the fight, there won't be any safety issues.
But consider the overall status of the students.
The Iron Man girl Xia Zhi was a little dizzy.
Lei Meng temporarily increased the rest time to one and a half hours.
There will be one wave every two waves of beasts.
Compared with the previous 30 minutes, one and a half hours is much more time.
Added up intermittently, I can sleep more than 10 hours a day.
Suddenly liberated from the tremendous pressure, the students' mental outlook quickly recovered.
Then Lei Meng changed the rest time back to half an hour...
During this period.
There is a new star card master team coming to Neverwinter Forest.
There is also a team of star card masters who have become exhausted and left.
In and out.
The number of people always remains around 600.
Gu Ci has been sorting and digesting the insights gained from the black mist of the witch-robed man.
The rule similar to the "Destruction" rule is called "Corrosion"
Both of these rules can directly cause damage to star power.
The only difference is that one destroys it all at once and the other takes effect slowly.
Just like spell card burst and dot.
In terms of the power of the rules themselves, "destruction" is stronger than "corrosion".
At least that's what Gu Ci thinks.
It also hits people.
"Destruction" can directly cause the star card master to be seriously injured, lose his level, and lose his combat effectiveness.
"Corrosion" takes a certain amount of time to accumulate this effect.
Its upper limit is higher than "Destruction".
Theoretically, if left unchecked, "corrosion" can even cause a great star card master to fall down to an ordinary person, and then die.
But in fact, only fools will not care about their own injuries.
During the process of the "corrosion" rule taking effect, once something is found to be wrong, we will definitely find a way to treat it as soon as possible.
You may be able to continue fighting during treatment.
Practicality is low.
Therefore, in Gu Ci's eyes, "corrosion" is not as good as "destruction".
He prefers something simple and rough.
It’s just that there are other rules in the ancient star card of the witch-robed man.
An additional attribute of "irreversible" is added to the damage caused by "corrosion".
That's when it became difficult to deal with.
Gu Ci still doesn't know what rules "irreversible" consists of.
The second rule he understood is called "Darkness".
The mist on the Witch Robe Ancient Star Card is integrated into the "dark" rules.
It can almost completely block the enemy's visual senses, which is terrifying.
Ordinary light can't come in either.
The mental power of star card masters is usually not very high - compared with the wizard robe people.
As long as you are affected by the "dark" rules, you are equivalent to becoming a blind man.
Don't know anything.
I can only identify the location by listening to the sound.
Fight with weak senses and a sense of danger.
This rule is not physically lethal.
But contrary to "corrosion", it has extremely high versatility.
For example, when you rush into the Star Dancing card, you will be black...
Star Dancer: "Are you thinking of something bad again?"
Gu Ci: "No, I just think this rule is very good."
Star Dancer: "Really?"
Gu Ci nodded: "Yes."
A must-have for home and travel, a panacea for getting things done.
Used in conjunction with the duel field, it should also have miraculous effects.
Xingwu looked at Gu Ci's serious look, snorted slightly, and then asked: "When will we go back?"
She misses the sofa and bed at home.
Gu Ci: "Let's wait until the beast tide ends."
Star Dance: "Okay."
Although neither of them knew when the beast tide would end.
From the moment they entered the central camp until now, this beast wave has lasted for thirteen days.
Counting the three days before arriving, it has been more than half a month.
The star card masters in the camp went from having a great time doing it to getting tired of doing it.
very tired.
But the improvement is quite obvious.
Many people have exceeded the level they came from.
The talented card masters sent by the Lu Beibei family to participate in the World Cup have all entered the sixth level.
The four dashing swordsmen also completed their goals for this trip to the Star Palace two days ago.
Torture is real torture.
It's worth it and it's really worth it.
This beast tide truly explains what pain and happiness are.
Come to the first floor.
Jiang Qianye is sitting by the window watching "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
The eldest lady of the association has never left the airship since she boarded it.
I was told that I would try new weapon cards, but I didn’t try them either.
It can be seen that she really doesn't like fighting.
Gu Ci poured himself a glass of water, drank it and walked over: "Where did you see it?"
Jiang Qianye: "I won't tell you."
Gu Ci: "Don't worry, I promise not to spoil anything this time."
Jiang Qianye was expressionless: "You said the same thing last time."
In the past half month, most of the time there were only two of them on the airship.
When Gu Ci has nothing to do, he will come down and take a walk to watch the students train.
Chat with her from time to time.
Most of the content we talked about was novels.
There is nothing wrong with this in itself.
Jiang Qianye also likes reading, but she can't help but Gu Ci always makes insinuations and spoilers.
It made her feel a little bored.
Now I see Gu Ci coming over.
Just close the book and change the topic.
Changed to a question that she had always been more concerned about.
Jiang Qianye: "Don't you find that this beast wave is a bit strange?"
She had spoken to the Dashing Swordsman and the others before.
But the handsome swordsman and others didn't seem to care about this.
They only see weirdness in their eyes.
And Gu Ci seems to be a smart person.
He should be able to get his point.
Gu Ci indeed discovered this: "Do you think it lasts too long?"
Jiang Qianye nodded: "The number of monsters in the beast tide has already exceeded the capacity of Neverwinter Forest."
Gu Ci: "Isn't this good?"
Jiang Qianye: "..."
Gu Ci: "I hope it lasts until school starts, in that case..."
Jiang Qianye: "Can all your students advance to level six and then participate in the World Cup with you?"
Can you guess this?
Gu Ci raised his eyebrows: "It's not good for girls to be too smart."
Jiang Qianye: "You can treat me as a man, I don't mind."
Gu Ci: "Okay, Mr. Jiang."
Jiang Qianye continued: "Are you not worried at all that something will go wrong if this continues?"
Human energy is limited.
There is a wave of beasts every hour, and no one can withstand it if it lasts for a long time.
The consequence of being unable to withstand it is that the central camp will be directly destroyed by the beast tide.
Gu Ci: "I have an empty boat."
Jiang Qianye: "..."
Can't refute.
At this time.
Instructor Lei, covered in mud and with a dirty face, climbed up.
"There's something wrong with this beast tide." Lei Meng said.
Something is really wrong.
Durability is one aspect.
On the other hand, the frequency of tonight's beast tide is gradually accelerating.
Everything was fine in the afternoon.
Standard one wave per hour.
But later on, the intervals between waves of beasts attacking the camp became shorter and shorter.
Each wave is 1 minute less.
It has been reduced from 60 minutes to 54 minutes now.
No one noticed it at first.
After all, the physical sensation in 1 minute is not obvious.
But within 5 minutes, someone noticed something was wrong.
What you could do twice now can only be done once.
This is a big problem, okay?
Especially card makers.
I obviously feel that time is tight.
Because people who are waiting to use the card keep urging...
I was annoyed and impatient.
"Bang!"
The card exploded.
Efficiency has become even lower.
Time is naturally running out.
Lei Meng said: "Some people are already using their main decks to farm monsters. If the time continues to shorten, we will soon have no cards available."
Gu Ci: "Then let's treat long-range as close combat."
Lei Meng: "..."
Jiang Qianye: "..."
Among all types of star cards, weapon cards have the lowest consumption.
You can defeat the entire wave of beasts with one use, and one card can resist it for a whole day.
No matter how slow the card printing speed is and how low the success rate is, ten cards a day will always be no problem, right?
After all, the cards will pile up more and more.
There is nothing wrong with Gu Ci's proposal, it is logical and well-founded.
However, not every long-range player can dance with a gun.
Letting a long-range combat card master who has never fought in close combat face the beast horde is no different than sending him to death.
Gu Ci: "I mean to let our distance students fight as close combatants."
Lei Meng: "We have treated them as close combat."
At this moment, Xu Tuantuan raised the sledgehammer again.
Zheng Fanfan also took out his nunchucks.
The two of them hummed and haha, which made the other battle card masters nearby look dumbfounded for a while.
Good boy.
Intense long-range firepower.
Not bad for close combat either.
Is Coach Gu going to train a group of multi-functional infantry?
"Brother is really foresighted."
The dashing swordsman and others couldn't help but sigh.
After they reached level six, they didn't spawn monsters much.
I've been watching a show on the side.
I can help you in case of any emergencies.
But I didn't want to be too busy to help, but I was surprised by a group of little guys.
He worshiped Gu Ci even more in his heart.
...Actually, Gu Ci didn't expect things to turn out like this.
He is not a prophet, so how could he know that he would encounter a tide of beasts?
There is still a problem with the beast tide.
Letting remote students practice close combat is purely to prepare for the World Cup.
This is an indispensable part of the tactics he designed.
Unexpectedly, by mistake, it would come in handy in the tide of beasts.
Lei Meng said: "I'm not worried about the students. I'm afraid that others won't be able to hold on."
He had the confidence to lead twenty students to secure a corner of the camp.
Not a single monster will be missed.
Even if the wave of beasts is shortened to 30 minutes, it will be the same.
But the problem is, there is more than one corner of the camp.
There are nearly 200 tents surrounded by a huge ring of walls.
If any place is not defended, it will cause a huge impact on the camp.
Gu Ci asked: "Did you ask for help from other camps?"
Lei Meng nodded: "A notice has been sent, but it will take time."
The team of star card masters who are unaware of the situation outside will definitely rush here when they hear about the beast tide.
So even if no notice is given, basically everyone who can make it can make it.
The remaining star card masters did not know the news about the beast tide, which proved that they were far away from the Neverwinter Forest.
Even if we traveled day and night, it would probably take a day or two.
Gu Ci looked at Jiang Qianye: "Aren't you going to help?"
Jiang Qianye tilted his head: "Master Gu won't go, so what's the point of me going?"
Gu Ci: "Of course it works. You can support a group by yourself, okay?"
Jiang Qianye: "You have so much confidence in me?"
Gu Ci: "No, I know what you are good at, but I trust my card."
Jiang Qianye: "..."
He's quite handsome, but it's a pity that he has a long mouth.
Jiang Qianye stood up: "I'm going."
Gu Ci: "Come on!"
Jiang Qianye: "...you won't come with us?"
Gu Ci pointed to the floor: "I have a cannon, a big cannon."
