Chapter 181 Return to the Mine, Treasure Chest and Cowhide Backpack
The obstacle that hinders Zong Shen from exploring the mine is those spider web monsters.
The two areas leading to the depths of the mine are blocked by a rune gate on one side and occupied by a group of spider web monsters on the other. If you want to continue exploring, you must kill those spider web monsters.
Zong Shen's strength was not enough to destroy them all before.
But things are different now. Zong Shen not only has enough troops, but also obtained many targeted weapons from goblin merchants.
He has already prepared all the useful props in the storage compartment.
Start mobilizing troops and generals, and decide on the lineup for this expedition.
"Colby, lead the first team of Wolf Riders to follow me, the second team will patrol the territory, and the rest will go to the front line to make up for the defense."
"Four dragon-shaped spear and shield warriors and two goblin tearers also followed me, forming a melee formation with the wolf cavalry."
"Luna, Milani, Tasia, Aysia, Farvid, Madeleine, and Marpel, you will act with the team as the medium and long-range output force."
Zong Shen brought a lineup of twenty-five people this time, which can be said to be a strong force, both near and far.
"Carlos, Pierce, you drive the Ripper to the back cabin of the Bearer. We will drive the Bearer over this time."
Zong Shen ordered the two goblin pilots, giving each of them dozens of primary magic energy crystals, and then took out two loader mechas in the open space.
The two goblin pilots took the order and first controlled the tall Ripper mecha onto the large cargo compartment of the load bearer, then nimbly jumped off the mecha and rolled into the cab of the load bearer.
All the soldiers except Wolf Cavalry and Luna sat in the cargo compartment of the Heavy Bearer.
Although the Burden Mecha is classified as a type of magic mecha, it actually looks like a tracked armed truck.
Generally speaking, it is much more convenient than riding a horse, but the speed is also much slower than that of a prairie horse.
However, the speed of thirty kilometers per hour was enough for them to avoid those cave monsters.
The key point is that it is very convenient. With so many people, only two loaders can handle it all!
Even Zong Shen himself doesn't plan to ride Bajie, as the mine is not suitable for Bajie's performance.
With such a complete combination of soldiers and those props, it is more than enough to deal with the spider web monster.
But before setting off, Zong Shen still had something to deal with.
That is to add some points to yourself!
He is already level 18 and has 3 attribute points and skill points at his disposal.
He added all three attribute points to strength, making his strength value 41 points.
One more point and you can use that dragon-slaying heavy sword!
The skill points are also simple and crude, just add 3 points of [Strong Attack] to upgrade it to level 9!
If holding a guard sword and a silver shield, Zong Shen's slashing damage can reach 92 points.
If the sword and shield are put away and a broad-bladed sword is held in both hands, the slashing damage can reach 109 points.
The powerful attack power is not inferior to that of ordinary leader-level monsters.
Putting aside the soldiers under his command, Zong Shen himself can be considered a very powerful combat force.
After he finished adding points to himself, he lightly jumped up and jumped into the cargo compartment of the loader mecha behind him.
Because Asia and the others are all in the same car...
"Colby, your Wolf Cavalry team is clearing the way ahead to guide the direction for the loader mecha!"
"Let's go now!"
"At the speed of the loader mecha, it will probably take about two hours to arrive!"
Zong Shen issued the order to set off.
The two loader mechas were activated, and the magic energy core transmitted the surging power to the track wheels, and began to move forward slowly.
Colby led a group of wolf riders in front, maintaining a constant speed and leading the way from behind.
Luna, the Huntress of the Night, followed behind on a large black panther.
The two load-bearing mechas carried everyone and continued to speed up, gradually accelerating to its top speed.
The thick tracks allow it to pass smoothly despite the ups and downs of the terrain, but the load-bearer is, after all, a transport-type auxiliary magic mecha, not a manned mecha, so there is no chance of it sitting in its cargo compartment.
How comfortable.
Along the way, whenever they encountered a group of monsters less than a hundred in size, they would choose to rush directly into them.
First, the wolf cavalry charged and strangled, and then Luna wandered aside and threw the moon blade.
Finally, two loader mechas savagely crushed them, basically killing the monsters without even stopping.
Facing the collision and crushing of the weight-bearing mecha, those zombies and worms were completely unable to resist.
It took them about two and a half hours to reach the outside of the mine ruins.
There are only a few cave monsters wandering around here in the periphery, and it seems that no big changes have happened after two days.
The crawler chassis of the loader mecha has excellent passability, and even the grassland horses are not suitable for entering the ruins, but it can climb up and drive all the way to the entrance of the mine.
Wolf Cavalry and Luna arrived at the cave entrance earlier.
There are no traces of fighting anywhere, and it seems that the Goblin tribe has not gathered people to find a place in the mine. Last time, the Goblin tribe lost two teams in the mine. According to the rules of those little green-skinned enemies, they must take revenge.
Logically speaking, his personality would not let go of the spider web monster so easily.
No matter what, more Goblin warriors should be sent to restore the situation, but now the mine seems to be still peaceful, and there are no traces of fighting inside or outside the mine.
But that's fine, Zong Shen can concentrate on killing all those spider web monsters!
Returning to the mine again, Zong Shen's strength this time is completely different from the last time!
Everyone got out of the loader's cargo compartment, and Zong Shen put the two loader mechas into the storage compartments with one move.
Then he took out three magic energy flashlights, put 3 primary magic energy crystals into each one, and charged 300 points of magic energy.
The appearance of the magic flashlight is similar to that of an ordinary portable flashlight.
At the front is a round piece of glass, and there are crystal slices in the inner light frame that reflect light.
The luminous source is a magic energy crystal piece, which will emit light after being filled with magic energy.
Zong Shen turned on the brightness, and an aperture the size of a washbasin shone into the dark mine.
This brightness is comparable to that of a homemade torch.
He adjusted the brightness to the second level, doubling the brightness and range again.
Now the brightness was more suitable. Zong Shen handed the two magic flashlights to the two wolf cavalry in the front row.
The remaining one was given to the dragonborn ranger Madeline, and the two sisters were at the back of the team.
Three beams of light shine into the mine, making the sight much clearer than the last time I used torch lighting.
The twelve wolf cavalry led the way at the front of the mine, lining up in a row and advancing slowly towards the interior of the mine.
Behind them were four dragon-turned-gun-and-shield warriors, holding spears in one hand and huge square shields in the other, slowly advancing like a shield wall.
Luna rode a black panther and stood next to Zong Shen. They were located in the middle of the team, which was also the core and safest command position!
Behind them are four mages and two ranger sisters, who are at the end of the team, and two goblin tearers guarding the back.
The mine was exceptionally quiet this time.
All the way to the mine hall, after setting fire to the cave last time, the cobwebs in the hall were almost burned, and only a part of the cobwebs remained in the passage on the right.
Neither spider web monsters nor kobolds were seen in the mine.
There are still cobwebs on the ground and on the rock walls that have not been burned out, and black ashes are everywhere, making it look very desolate and desolate.
There is a black iron treasure chest quietly placed in the corner on the right side of the mine, covered with the residue of burned cobwebs.
Nearby there are two tattered leather backpacks with traces of fire burns, everything is as mentioned in the previous guide.
"Enter the mine and start to be on alert."
Zong Shen gave an order, and the wolf cavalry and the gun and shield warriors entered the mine first.
They were divided into two groups, one guarding the left passage and the other guarding the right passage. Everyone entered the mine hall and began to be on guard.
Zong Shen walked straight towards the black iron treasure chest and the two tattered leather backpacks.
【Black Iron Treasure Chest】
[An unknown black iron treasure chest, no one knows what can be found]
(There is no problem with the treasure chest, you can open it with confidence)
[Damaged cowhide backpack x2]
[Quality: Ordinary (Damaged)]
[Capacity: 4/12 grids]
[Capacity: 3/12 grids]
[Durability: 16]
[A badly damaged cowhide backpack, it looks like it has been abandoned here for many years]
(Most of the contents of the two backpacks that Baron Bezos abandoned here in a hurry have decayed, but there are also a few meaningful items)
Zong Shen chose to open the treasure chest first.
After the rule adjustment at the end of the novice period, only treasure chests and ruins can have a relatively high probability of obtaining recruitment scrolls, and the recruitment scroll exploding rate for killing monsters has been reduced by almost 99%.
[Opened the black iron treasure chest successfully]
[First-level training ground construction drawing x1]
[Second-level light crossbow camp construction drawings x1]
[Second-level crossbowman training book x3]
[Avalon Light Crossbowmen Recruitment Volume x2]
[Book of Elementary Power x1]
[Craft highland wine x6]
There are six items in total, two are construction blueprints, and the other is a training book necessary for recruitment.
Zong Shen only had the Recruitment Scroll and the Book of Power left in his hands, and the others were put into the storage compartment first.
He used the [Book of Elementary Power] first.
Strength increased by 2 points to 43 points. This attribute should be enough to use the Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword.
This increased Zong Shen's strength a lot. Then, he raised his hand and activated the two recruitment scrolls at the same time.
Two magic circles emerged, and two Avalon light-armored crossbowmen appeared from them.
Now, Zong Shen already has four lightly armed crossbowmen.
Wearing the same standard equipment, they came to Zong Shen and saluted respectfully.
"Come at your call!"
"The warriors of Avalon will be victorious!"
"Avalon Crossbowman Jennings/Vivian reporting to you!"
