Chapter 289: Challenging the status quo, bad things spread thousands of miles
Zong Shen released demons back and forth among the monsters to intimidate him, as if he was in an uninhabited land.
The wolf cavalry also moved back and forth in accordance with his request.
The soldiers in the back row were calmly waiting for the opportunity to take action, and everything was just right.
It was as if what they were facing was not a group of cave monsters, but an uncarved stone that was being carefully cut and polished by them.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is an art of hunting.
As the saying goes, practice makes perfect, and killing can be turned into a streamlined and efficient operation. On the one hand, it is because of the strong strength of Zong Shen and his soldiers, and on the other hand, it is because of the accumulation of killing experience.
After all, the Crypt Challenge has been open for almost 6 days. There are as many as 50,000 to 60,000 monsters in Zong Shen's hands directly or indirectly these days. If he hadn't been distracted and explored several times during this period, this number would have been
It can be much higher.
Zong Shen and the soldiers have accumulated sufficient experience in dealing with crypt monsters.
In fact, the lords who have survived to this day more or less have their own survival experience.
But there are probably only a few people like Zong Shen who can deal with a huge group of cave monsters as calmly as eating and drinking.
Zong Shen drove the loader mecha and repeatedly passed through the crypt monster group. During this period, he also passed by the crypt hero. The crypt hero in this monster group was a death knight, which was also in Zong Shen's group.
Under the demon's intimidation, he was made dizzy.
The entire monster group became chaotic under Zong Shen's agitation, and even began to disperse vaguely, and was divided into three parts. This was all thanks to Zong Shen.
At the same time, due to the interference of demonic deterrence, the death knight in this monster group also forgot to integrate the monster group. At this time, the monster group closest to the back row was already within a hundred meters of the rear.
The mages chanted magic one after another, and the dragonborn ranger sisters also raised their longbows.
Four dragon-turned-gun-and-shield warriors and the Druid of the Claw, Ilensa Shatterclaw, were guarding a position about twenty meters in front of the mages. They did not take any action, but stayed in place, making final preparations.
A few dozen meters in front of them were Luna and the three huntresses. This time there was no territory to protect, so Zong Shen didn't care at all. There was no need to be as anxious as when Zhang Zihao and Trollope were in the territory.
He had a lot of time to destroy the group of cave monsters in front of him. Even a short retreat or detour was no problem. This was one of the reasons why Zong Shen became more calm and calm.
This time he will adopt a stepped attack to eat away the group of cave monsters.
According to this tactic, it would take him about an hour and a half to wipe out the entire group of monsters. Although the speed is not fast, the pressure is also very small. This is a balanced relationship.
If Zong Shen's entire army attacks, and various large-scale killing skills and powerful skills are thrown around, the killing speed will naturally be high, but the combat load will also increase exponentially, and the powerful skills will be on cooldown. Once faced with an unexpected situation,
Or the possible subsequent high-intensity battles will appear weak.
The way of marching must be relaxed and moderate, and reasonable rhythm and tactics should be used to ensure that the soldiers can maintain their peak combat status as much as possible.
The sky is completely bright now, the sun rises from the east and shines on the clouds.
It is already past six o'clock in the morning, and there are less than six hours left before the last refresh of the Crypt Challenge at 12 noon.
Just after 12 noon, it marks the last day of the Crypt Challenge.
The week-long challenge event is finally coming to an end.
I don’t know if there will be any tricks in this crypt challenge. I think the lord system will never let the majority of lords pass the crypt challenge so easily.
In the past few days, the region has also lost seven to eight hundred lords, and now there are still 7,523 lords left. The casualty rate in these days is actually much lower than that in the novice period. After all, the lords who can survive the novice period are basically
They are all people who have adapted to the rhythm of survival.
Excluding some accidents, most of the lords who died in the crypt challenge were killed by the crypt monster group. Due to the vast area of the entire area, it covers 40,000 square kilometers, with an average of one square kilometer.
The number is actually between one and two hundred. Of course, this is just the average number.
Before the appearance of Crypt Heroes, the groups of Crypto Monsters were formed in a spider web shape and gathered together through specific paths of attraction, which to a certain extent limited the activity range of Crypt Monster Groups.
In addition, the lords are also continuing to hunt, and the number of monsters in the entire crypt is actually quite balanced. It can be said that the forces of the crypt monsters and the lords are evenly matched, and everything is controlled under a suitable pressure scale.
Neither the crypt monsters nor the lord forces have an absolute advantage.
Even when faced with a group of crypt monsters, if the lords can unite, they can actually resist them.
Take Trollope for example. If there are four to six lords of this level, relying on the defense of the territory and spending some time and energy, they can still kill the three thousand crypt monsters after paying some casualties.
group.
Dozens of professional warriors, relying on defense and terrain, are very powerful in combat. They can fight even against gargoyles and ghost banshees. If they form a team to advance and retreat together, they can crush them.
Those weak monsters such as crypt zombies and fanged worms.
Such cooperation has begun to appear in the region, especially the activation of the [Legion] function, which is equivalent to establishing a platform and foundation for cooperation between lords.
At least it is much stronger than the cooperative relationship that the lords spontaneously established before.
All in all, the entire crypt challenge is a very balanced challenge.
It not only puts pressure on the lords and makes it more difficult to develop the territory, but also provides points exchange so that you can also get benefits from killing crypt monsters.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In addition, the strength of both sides is actually very balanced. When a region is full, 10,000 lords will come, and on average you will encounter a lord every three or four square kilometers.
1,000 crypts descended on each area, and the initial ratio was 10:1. Even after the initial few days of casualties, the ratio could reach 8:1.
On average, a crypt will spawn 2,400 crypt monsters every day, which is equivalent to spawning 16,800 crypt monsters in seven days. On average, 8 lords only need to kill 2,100 monsters in seven days of activity, which is 300 monsters per day.
This will eliminate all the crypt monsters in the entire area.
However, the overall differences in the strength of the lords, coupled with the distribution of the crypts, make this data impossible to achieve on paper. Many lords may only be able to kill one or two hundred heads a day due to location and density reasons.
There are even some lords who can kill ten or twenty heads in a whole day when they have a bye.
Of course, there are also powerful lords who can kill thousands or thousands of heads every day. Overall, many differences in conditions lead to differences in results.
Judging from the current situation, there are still a large number of lords whose daily number of kills is lower than the average. The number of these lords is far greater than the number of strong lords, so there are a large number of crypt monsters.
After being killed, they gradually accumulated into a group of monsters.
Even now among the monster groups, you can still find some first-level crypt monsters that were spawned on the first day. This result is consistent with the model of the pyramid theory.
The lords who form the base of the pyramid account for the majority, and the number of kills of these lords is almost always lower than the daily average. The higher the number of lords killed, the smaller the number, until the top of the pyramid.
until.
At the same time, it also complies with the theme of survival of the fittest. Although this activity is for everyone and is indiscriminate, most of the lords who were eliminated by the crypt monster group are also weak lords. Of course, some unlucky ones with good strength are not excluded.
The lord encountered a huge group of cave monsters and the middle path collapsed.
Any situation that needs to be blamed or attributed to luck is always a minority.
Zong Shen has clearly understood the current situation of the entire crypt challenge. Now it depends on what new tricks will appear in the final challenge. If there are no big tricks, then Zong Shen will continue to hunt safely until the end.
After the crypt challenge is over, you can save more points and [Basic Challenge Token].
Not to mention anything else, the points gained from this challenge alone can be converted into various materials, which is a huge sum of money. After experiencing the crypt challenge, Zong Shen's development speed has at least doubled.
Now we have to wait for the challenge to end and recruit heroic talents and basic population. If we want to solve this problem as quickly as possible, we need to start from the indigenous forces.
While Zong Shen was driving the loader mecha and looking around among the monsters, a few hundred meters away to the north, a lord with fourteen warriors was observing the situation here.
Among these fourteen warriors, eight are wolf cavalry, as well as one holy light priest, two earth mages, and three Alonva third-level dragon-born swordsmen.
Except for the wolf cavalry, everyone is riding prairie horses. It seems that this guy has a very strong family background. The most important thing is that this guy, like the original Medina, can still have enough energy to ensure the defense of the territory.
Send a team to go out on your own initiative.
The leader of the lord looked to be several years older than Zong Shen. He wore a metal half-helmet and a suit of armor made of carapace. His weapons were a long bow and a short sword.
At this time, he was a little shocked when he looked at the performance of Zong Shen's team.
When he saw Zong Shen's full force of soldiers, his eyes showed a greedy look unconsciously, and he even couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
"My dear! I didn't expect that there was such a person in the area."
"With a team of no more than thirty people in total, we dare to attack such a large group of cave monsters."
"It's really amazing!"
At this time, he saw Zong Shen driving a loader mecha among the monsters, and there was a strange look in his eyes.
He recognized it as a goblin mecha because his territory was near the goblin trader camp in the mountain outpost to the north.
He had also dealt with those goblins and done some small business. Those goblins had a lot of good things, but unfortunately the prices were ridiculously expensive.
At that time, he had also seen the loader mecha, and even asked about the price. The other party offered a sky-high price. This thing actually cost 80,000 mainland general dinars. You must know that its quality is only excellent, and it also requires
Consume magic energy.
Therefore, he was deeply impressed by the Heavy Bearer mecha. At this time, he could recognize that Zong Shen was piloting the Heavy Bearer mecha at a glance.
This loader mecha alone is enough to show how rich Zong Shen's net worth is.
He couldn't see Zong Shen's name from this distance, but only the lord could see the crypt monster, so it couldn't be an aborigine.
"Let's go, let's go meet them..."
"Well... make friends with them..."
He waved his hand and said softly, emphasizing the word "friend" very hard.
A team of more than a dozen people walked towards the back row of Zong Shen's side. They were almost a few tens of meters away and were discovered as soon as they showed up.
Luna and the three huntresses took the initiative to stop them, raised the moon blade, and blocked them more than 20 meters in front of them.
"There is a battle ahead, please inform us of your purpose!"
Luna said unceremoniously that meeting a stranger at this juncture was not a good sign.
After all, they are now in an advantageous position, with no chance of losing the fittest, and they don't need support from others.
"Beautiful elf lady, my name is Wang Xuan, and I am also a lord."
"Do you need help?"
After Wang Xuan saw Luna and the three huntresses beside her, a smile appeared on his face.
He smiled and bowed slightly in greeting politely.
"Thank you, we don't need help."
"My lord, please go back, so as not to be affected by the battle."
Luna said neither humble nor overbearing, without changing her attitude.
At this time, Zong Shen drove the loader mecha and crashed into the monster group.
Seeing this group of lords suddenly appearing, he couldn't help but turn the loader's mecha and drive towards here.
The lord named Wang Xuan saw the loader mecha approaching, and the smile on his face became even bigger, and he pointed at Zong Shen, who was approaching not far away.
"Beautiful Elf lady, don't be too hasty to reject me."
"I think your lord is still interested in cooperating with me."
As Zong Shen approached, Wang Xuan could already see Zong Shen's name and serial number.
Hearing what he said, Luna looked back and silently took the huntress back a few steps.
Soon, Zong Shen arrived in front of him in a loader mecha.
A flick of the wheel stopped between Wang Xuan and Luna. Zong Shen looked at Wang Xuan but did not step out of the cab.
Wang Xuan didn't mind, so he took the initiative to get off the prairie horse, came to the side of the cab and extended his right hand to Zong Shen.
"Hello, Mr. Zong, my name is..."
Zong Shen interrupted him before he finished speaking, and did not reach out to shake his hand.
"It's true that bad things spread thousands of miles. I recognize you Wang Xuan!"
