Chapter 232: Frontline Inspection, Horned Eagles Flying Together (12,000 on that day)
After all, there are three level 1 arrow towers and one level 2 arrow tower guarding the front line.
The arrangement of these defensive buildings has greatly enhanced the defensive capabilities and pressure resistance of frontline positions.
Coupled with the collective output of many long-range soldiers, even gargoyles can be easily killed.
If there are no new changes in the crypt in the next few days, then the place will be as stable as Mount Tai and can be safely defended until the end of the crypt challenge.
However, Zong Shen feels that there will definitely be some new tricks in the crypt challenge.
According to the rules, more powerful new monsters are likely to be spawned in the crypts in the next few days, but the number of these monsters spawned should not be too large.
However, there is still a risk of affecting the front line. Ultimately, this is because the front line positions do not have the same pressure resistance capabilities as the territories, nor do they have sufficient defensive buildings.
On the first day of the crypt challenge, only zombies and fanged worms were refreshed in the crypt. Among them, fanged worms were green elite-level monsters, accounting for about 20% of the number that were refreshed each time.
Later, blue captain-level monsters began to appear in the crypt, which were gargoyles with the ability to fly and more powerful attributes.
The number of these gargoyles spawned is much smaller than that of fanged worms, accounting for only about 5% of the total number of spawns in the crypt. However, when the gargoyles first appeared, they still caused a lot of trouble for the frontline positions.
Even Vereesa chose to take the initiative to use the communication crystal to ask for help from Zong Shen. At that time, he had just finished dealing with the spider web monster lord, and quickly dispatched several warriors from the mines back to the territory to provide support.
This is enough to show that the frontline positions are extremely sensitive to the strengthening and changes in the types of monsters in the crypt.
Therefore, we do not rule out the possibility that purple commander-level monsters will be spawned in the crypt in the future, but even if commander-level monsters are spawned, the corresponding number ratio will inevitably be further reduced.
The so-called leader level is the level that leads a party. Both in terms of attributes and skills, they are much more powerful than captain level monsters.
It is definitely a killer weapon. There are monsters of this level mixed in the crypt monster group. Even if the number is not large, they are still terrifying and can make the crypt monsters even more difficult to deal with.
At that time, the whiteboard monsters and elite monsters, which account for the highest proportion of the total number of monsters, will serve as cannon fodder, while the relatively small number of captain-level monsters and commander-level monsters will serve as the main force. At that time, the difficulty of eradication will also rise sharply.
In addition, the daily increase in the strength of the monster swarm is also a variable factor that cannot be ignored. As the strengthening level increases, the difficulty will inevitably increase. These factors will make the monster swarm more difficult to deal with.
Therefore, Zong Shen still needs to give more attention and combat support to the frontline positions.
Zong Shen is also well aware of this. Every night as long as he takes the initiative to go out hunting, he will come to the front line of the cave to inspect to see if the situation here is normal and whether additional support is needed.
Because once any emergencies arise in the Crypt Challenge, this place will be the first line to bear the pressure.
In fact, Zong Shen decided to establish a frontline position and clear this crypt alone, not only to gain more points, but also to share the pressure on the territory.
This crypt and the one to the west of the territory are the two closest crypts to the territory, and they are also the two crypts that pose the greatest threat to the territory.
Zong Shen chose to clear one of the crypts alone and completely sealed off the crypt, which indeed greatly relieved the pressure on the territory.
In addition, the defense in the territory is relatively strong, and the quantity and quality of the warriors are very high, so Zong Shen has always been able to face the crypt challenge with ease.
At this moment, Vereesa has not rested yet. Her level has been raised to lv20. In the past two days, she has changed into two rare pieces of equipment: [Horned Eagle War Bow] and [Shadow Orb], as well as a large number of other equipment.
Arrows of good quality have greatly enhanced her strength.
After this series of costume changes, her overall output ability has improved to a higher level.
From her hands, arrows were being shot out one after another, and the sound of the bowstring's rebounding was endless.
Those arrows were like streaks of black light flying out, sometimes shooting at the gargoyles in the sky with a very alarming frequency, and sometimes shooting at the monsters that had just appeared outside the entrance of the cave. Vereesa simply transformed into a killer.
The machine continuously shoots sharp arrows representing death.
The long-range soldiers in the frontline combat team were also shooting hard. Zong Shen had previously transferred most of the long-range soldiers into the combat team.
About half of the soldiers are resting now. The remaining half of the soldiers are also terrifying in conjunction with Vereesa's output. All kinds of arrows, crossbow bolts, magic, and spikes are flying towards the cave entrance like a sudden storm.
The few poor monsters outside rushed away, beating them into snake skins in minutes.
This wave of crypt monsters had almost just walked out of the cave entrance, and it only took forty or fifty seconds at most before they were completely wiped out. Before the next wave of monsters appeared, the warriors even had a minute or two of fragmented time to carry out a brief battle.
Make adjustments to deal with the appearance of the next wave of monsters.
Vereesa also took advantage of this short gap to jump off the roof of the thatched shed and walked towards Zong Shen.
Zong Shen has sent her warmth several times these days, and with the recent running-in and getting along with her, her loyalty to Zong Shen has reached 95 points, with only 5 points left to reach the loyalty Max.
This level of loyalty is already quite high now, and the contrast is huge compared to when he was first recruited, especially in Vereesa's attitude towards Zong Shen.
She was holding the [Horned Eagle War Bow] in her hand, and she came to Zong Shen with agile steps. The light green hooded robe behind her danced as she walked, and the green patterned armor on her upper body became more
It perfectly sets off her peach-like curves.
His light green eyes looked directly into Zong Shen's eyes, with a faint smile on his face.
He put one hand on his chest and saluted Zong Shen respectfully.
"Sir, the situation on the front line today is normal."
"The battle bow you gave me is very convenient. It brings back the feeling I had before."
"My sharp arrows will pierce all enemies who attempt to invade my territory!"
Zong Shen looked her over and over, and nodded with a smile when he heard what she said.
Now Vereesa has truly begun to integrate into the territory.
I have been able to put myself in the territory's shoes and consider it. This is the creation of a sense of belonging. Among them, the loyalty setting of the lord system and the two rare-level equipment that Zong Shen spent a lot of money on have played the biggest role.
Of course, the role of the former must be greater. Otherwise, according to Vereesa's character and past background, it would be impossible for her to surrender to a small lord like Zong Shen, let alone be bribed by two rare pieces of equipment.
.
Back then, Vereesa was the founder of the Silver Covenant, a high elven mage corps. She was a commander, and an ancient hero with outstanding abilities. How could she have such high regard for two rare pieces of equipment?
The only explanation is that the lord system has been affected or changed.
But no matter what, the past is just the past. Now Vereesa is a general in the territory and is Zong Shen's indispensable right-hand man.
"Very well Vereesa, thank you for your hard work!"
"Go back to the territory tonight and have a good rest."
"I will send additional manpower to the front line to fill your position."
Zong Shen decided to let Vereesa have a good night's rest.
After all, several days of high-intensity combat, even if one can take turns to take intermittent rests, is still a severe challenge to the body and mind.
Vereesa, who is as strong as the ancient hero, will inevitably feel tired from persisting and fighting day after day, but as an outstanding warrior, she will persevere until she gets Zong Shen's permission.
Until the end of the crypt challenge.
Now that she heard that Zong Shen took the initiative to ask her to rest, her heart couldn't help but feel warm. No matter how strong a woman was, she would be touched by just the right amount of care.
"Sir...it doesn't matter, I can still persist..."
"With me stationed on the front line, the efficiency of dealing with those monsters can be increased by more than 50%."
"If I return to the territory to rest all night, the pressure on the front line will be great..."
Before Vereesa finished speaking, Zong Shen stretched out a finger to make a silent gesture.
He signaled her to stop talking and just listen to his arrangements.
"Don't worry, I will make proper arrangements."
"We are only halfway through the Crypt Challenge so far. You need to have a good rest to be in the best condition to face the upcoming battle."
"By the way Vereesa, I remember that your [Horned Eagle Battle Bow] can summon the Horned Eagle."
"I want to fly up in the sky on a hippogryph and take a look."
Zong Shen suddenly said with a whim. The last time he took off was on a goblin airship, this time he planned to take a ride on the hippogryph and take advantage of the night to take off again to take a look at the surrounding situation. At night, there are always
The bright areas should be the territories of other lords.
In addition, it is the crypt challenge period recently, and all lords will be harassed by crypt monsters to some extent. It is impossible to hide the territory in the dark, and there will be some light.
In this dark night, it is the time when we can most intuitively observe the surrounding lords.
Because Zong Shen will expand his territory early tomorrow morning and form his own legion, so he might as well check it out in advance now so that he can have an idea.
After hearing Zong Shen's words, Vereesa nodded without thinking.
"Yes, sir, the Hippogriff War Bow can indeed summon a Hippogriff War Beast."
"The Hippogriff is a large beast with a ferocious personality and belongs to the category of raptors."
"Its back can accommodate up to two people for riding. If you want to fly to the sky on a hippogryph, I can accompany you and control the hippogryph for you."
Vereesa took the initiative to ask for permission and actually wanted to accompany Zong Shen on a double flight.
This is different when loyalty is high. Not only is the attitude much more respectful, but even the consideration of problems begins to become considerate and considerate.
Thinking about the aloof Vereesa back then, and then looking at Vereesa now, this contrast made Zong Shen feel secretly happy.
Zong Shen didn't think much and nodded and agreed to Vereesa's proposal.
Luna on the side had a strange expression on her face, but she didn't say much. She was quietly bathing in the silvery white moonlight, her whole body exuding halo and moonlight echoing each other.
The exploration team and the wolf riding team all consciously started to kill the wandering cave monsters.
Especially Favid, since he put on this [Killing Staff of Theseus], his enthusiasm for fighting has increased a lot, his fighting spirit is also very high, and he is full of energy.
In order to accumulate 1,000 killing points as quickly as possible, he wanted to kill the whole world alone.
On this side, Vereesa gently raised her bow and activated the skill of summoning the horned eagle.
After a loud eagle scream, a group of dark green light appeared, and then quickly converged to reveal a strange winged giant beast. It actually had a pair of antlers on its head, but it had an eagle beak and sharp eagle eyes like a raptor.
.
Its body is equally strange, resembling both a raptor and a stag, with a broad back and a pair of powerful, huge wings.
They can fly freely in the sky and attack any flying enemies they encounter.
The huge eagle's beak can cut through the enemy's flesh and blood like a giant chisel, leaving terrifying large blood holes for the enemy.
Thousands of years ago in the ancient times, hippogryphs and night elves formed an alliance, uniting in the name of protecting nature.
The famous hippogryph knights at that time were a combination of the two. Powerful elven archers rode ferocious hippogryphs soaring into the sky, allowing their sharp arrows to be shot from various directions in the sky.
For a powerful aerial ranger.
The Hippogryph itself is also very powerful in combat, no less powerful than griffins, harpies, and even flying monsters such as subspecies flying dragons.
When the summoned hippogryph fell, Vereesa rode up first, hugged the hippogryph's feather-covered neck with one hand, and waved at Zong Shen with the other hand.
There was just a vacant spot behind her, allowing Zong Shen to ride on it.
Because the hippogryph summoned by the skill has a time limit, Zong Shen didn't waste much time and flexibly climbed up on the hippogryph's back and sat behind Vereesa.
There was only a slight gap between the two of them, and the tip of Zong Shen's nose could even touch her head.
The thighs on both sides can also touch some elastic places.
Before it had time to feel it carefully, the hippogryph opened its huge wings and began to flap back and forth.
A fierce wind blew up out of thin air, which shows how powerful its wings are.
Its wings flapped a few more times, and its huge body began to lift off with Vereesa and Zong Shen. Its wings still flapped at a stable frequency.
After the hippogryph's body stabilized, it flapped its wings slightly and flew out quickly!
