Chapter 473: Strike Ranger Madeline, Eyes of the Viper
Reese Ulysses didn't mind Zong Shen carrying her away.
After experiencing being physically trapped and withering for hundreds of years, her mentality has long since become different from that of a normal person.
It is worth mentioning that this kind of personality and mentality made Zong Shen very satisfied.
When the two of them walked together, Zong Shen could feel how efficient she was in doing things.
Now, Zong Shende takes advantage of the end of the winter challenge to open all four winter treasure chests he got this morning.
Because you can get points by opening the Winter Treasure Box.
You can also get 2,000 points from these four treasure chests, which is not a small amount of money.
The basic survival points obtained in the first 24 hours of winter are only 1,200 points.
In addition, the Winter Treasure Chest is a special reward product in the Winter Challenge. If you keep it in your hand, not only will the challenge points be wasted, but the treasure chest itself may also change.
The safest thing is to kill it on the spot before the challenge ends.
Zong Shen carried the intermediate space mage Ruisi and walked directly to the door of the small building.
The outer ice layer is 40 to 50 centimeters higher than the level of the first floor. Even the small platform with three steps at the door is frozen under the ice layer.
At this time, a square area had been cut out of the ice outside the door, and a lot of ice on the walls and door had also been removed.
There are still many nail marks left by [anti-slip chain spikes] on the ice.
This shows that Luna and the others have left the lord's small building.
Zong Shen reached out and pulled the door open. On the ice at the bottom, the broken ice had frozen again.
This made it difficult to open the door. Fortunately, his brute strength was amazing, and there was a creaking and rubbing sound from the bottom of the door.
Zong Shen forced the door open, leaving several obvious scratches on the ice outside the door.
Upon entering the small building, Vereesa, Luna, and Mariel were not in the hall.
He must have gone out before, Zong Shen put Reese Ulysses on the chair in the living room.
The rickety old lady said nothing and began to stretch her stiff body. Compared with the outside, the hall was much warmer here.
The two sisters Madeline and Mapel are both in the living room, and the younger sister Madeline seems to have completed the advancement.
She placed the original equipment and bows and arrows on the small round table in the living room.
She is now carrying a straight-draw longbow, which is about the same length as a third-level bow. The bow arms have been strengthened and have better elasticity.
The light green ranger uniform on his body turned into emerald blue reforged sleeveless light armor with a soft leather lining inside.
There is also a disk-shaped arm shield on the left arm, and there is also an additional battle helmet on the head.
The battle helmet has a movable umbrella-shaped visor. When the visor is put down, only two eyes are exposed.
It seems that the level of armament is higher than that of the third level, but it is less heroic.
It seems that they have made a decision, and elder sister Mapel gave this opportunity to advance to her younger sister.
As for the weapons that Madeleine replaced after she advanced, they can be given to the previously captured soldiers.
Among those warriors there are also third-level dragonborn rangers.
At this time, the two sisters were standing at the long table, studying the fourth-level longbow.
When they heard Zong Shen entering the door, they also turned their heads.
"Sir, are you back?"
"Mariel and Luna have prepared lunch for you, it's in the kitchen."
Madeleine and Marpel bowed their knees slightly and saluted Zong Shen.
"Madeline, Marpel."
"It seems you have made your choice."
"Madeline, come here and let me see your changes."
Zong Shen took off his assault cloak, which was covered with frost flowers, and draped it on the back of a chair beside him.
He waved to Madeleine and said that Avalon's fourth-level troops were not only inferior to those of third-level soldiers in terms of name, but there were also big differences in the appearance of the standard equipment.
At least Madeline's current outfit is not as pleasing to the eye as it was at the third level.
Although the light green ranger trench coat lacks defensive capabilities, it looks more agile than lightweight armor.
The Dragonborn is also more powerful than the rank prefix of Strong Strike.
He can still accept changes in names, but he can't go back thousands of years to question the namer of Avalon's arms.
Now Zong Shen only hopes that her strength can be significantly improved and she will not let down this advanced book.
Upon hearing this, Madeline grabbed the long bow on the table and walked slowly to Zong Shen.
Holding the handle of the long bow, he knelt on one knee, took off his helmet and placed it at his feet, accepting Zong Shen's inspection.
Her blond hair fell smoothly from both sides of her shoulders.
Zong Shen's eyes narrowed and he checked her latest attributes.
【Strike Ranger:Madeline】
[Qualification: Excellent]
[Level: lv17]
[Attributes: (Click to expand)]
[Hunger and satiety: 96]
[Loyalty: 100]
Zong Shen clicked with his mind to expand the detailed attributes.
Dragon Shot LV15 (shoot three arrows at the target continuously, causing 1.2/1.4/1.6 multiples of puncture damage respectively, cooling time is 5 minutes)
Dragon blood boiling LV7 (stimulating the dragon's blood in the body, increasing health, attack power and movement speed by 24%, lasting 1 minute and 20 seconds, cooling time 7 hours and 40 minutes)
Powerful projectile lv10 (enter projectile state, project at an angle of no more than 45°, and projectile strikes targets within a distance of 400 meters, the damage is fixed at 1.1 times the puncture damage)】
(Level 4 Strike Ranger, an advanced unit among the archer troops of the Kingdom of Avalon, capable of proficiently mastering projectile skills)
Overall, Madeleine's attributes have greatly improved after the advancement and the level improvement during this period.
It just so happened that the archer troops gained a lot of experience points from killing the winter snow monster in the past two days, so Madeleine's level also reached level 17.
After becoming a fourth-level strike ranger, she mastered projectile skills.
Compared with direct shooting, projectile has the advantage of longer range, and can also cross the frontal obstacles in a parabola.
To project accurately requires rich shooting skills, because it is completely different from the aiming process of direct shooting.
When the third-level dragon ranger shoots directly, it only has a range of 80 to 100 meters, but after the strike ranger masters the projectile skills, it can increase the strike distance to 400 meters.
If a large scale is formed, projectiles can be used to carry out covering strikes on areas within the range.
However, at least one squadron of Strike Rangers is required to turn the projectile into a hail of arrows.
Overall, the improvement in strength after advancement is quite obvious.
Beside the long table, her twin sister Mapel was always looking at her sister with envy.
Although she gave up her place for advancement to Madeline, she is still eager to advance.
"Get up quickly, Madeleine."
Zong Shen turned off her detailed attributes with a thought.
Signaling Madeleine to get up.
"By the way, where are Mariel and the others?"
Zong Shen suddenly remembered something, and he had wanted to ask it since he entered the room just now.
The winter challenge has entered its final stage, and it is only one step away from the end. However, the temperature outside is already extremely cold, so it feels a little strange for him to have all the girls go out together at this time.
Moreover, no one informed him, and he didn’t know whether it was an emergency or because he happened to be in a flash or shuttle state when contacting him.
Hearing Zong Shen's question, Madeline put her helmet back on and reported the truth truthfully.
"Lord Doris sent a message more than an hour ago."
"The magic patrol dogs released this morning discovered something unusual on the northern periphery of the territory."
"Your communication crystal couldn't connect, so Vereesa and Lady Luna cut through the ice and went to the living area to meet Lady Doris."
"Ms. Mariel also went with them."
Madeleine is an ordinary warrior in the territory, and she needs to call the heroes in the territory "sir."
Zong Shen frowned when he heard this, and reached into his coat's arms to find his communication crystal.
"Did you find something?"
"What needs such a huge effort?"
Zong Shen said doubtfully.
Madeleine just shook her head, she was not sure about the specific situation.
In daily life, the girls get along normally, but when something goes wrong in the territory, this class gap emerges.
"I'll ask them myself."
Zong Shen dialed number 5 on the crystal, which was the number of the communication crystal held by Vereesa.
The top of the crystal tower in the territory suddenly lit up, and a communication channel was established between the two communication crystals.
Vereesa quickly connected to the crystal.
Before Zong Shen could speak, she took the initiative to ask.
"Sir, have you returned to the territory?"
"Well, I'm in the lord's small building now."
"I heard from Madeleine what happened outside the territory?"
Zong Shen also asked directly.
Vereesa responded quickly, and her voice was still calm and calm, indicating that the situation was relatively stable.
"Sir, the patrol dog found eight venomous snake eyes about six to seven kilometers north of the territory."
"This is a second-level surveillance witchcraft. It has a second-level concealment ability and can continuously monitor an area."
"As far as I know, the shamans in the Goblin tribe should be good at these witchcraft."
"Huhu..."
"These snake eyes are voodoo spells. It's a pity that we can't find more useful clues because of the ice cover."
Vereesa's voice was very gentle, accompanied by slight gasps from time to time. It seemed like she was outside in the cold.
Hearing what she said, Zong Shen already had a clear answer in his heart.
Obviously, the viper's eyes placed in the northern part of the territory were all the work of goblins.
Although the Goblin King prevented his men from launching a counterattack immediately, he still noticed this.
The reason why the surveillance witchcraft was arranged was to test the reality of Zong Shen's territory, which showed that the Goblin King was a very cautious guy.
And it has a lot of wisdom, no wonder it can lead this goblin tribe.
The purpose of doing this is very simple, and it is also to prepare for the next action.
When Zong Shen regarded it as fish and meat, it also silently included Zong Shen's territory among its hunting targets.
They were like two hunters, cautiously testing and silently licking their claws.
"I understand. Destroy all these viper eyes. At the same time, choose a location in the defense matrix on the north side of the territory and let Mariel build a fourth-level detection tower."
"Focus on the detection of the northern part of the territory, so that the stealth of those goblins will not be effective."
"Let the patrol dog continue probing along the perimeter."
"The winter challenge is almost over now. Let's go to the living area and prepare to gather people. In the afternoon we will go into the mountains to find the griffons."
"At the same time, let Cecilia lead the Immortal Lancers team and Howie to wait for me in the living area. There are other tasks for him."
Zong Shen spoke faster and said that it would be twelve o'clock at noon in ten or twenty minutes, and he had to open the four winter treasure chests on hand first.
"I understand, sir."
Vereesa was also a resolute person, and her replies were decisive and without any hesitation.
"good."
Zong Shen simply replied with the word "good" and hung up the communication.
He came to the long table, took out all four winter treasure chests obtained today, and began to choose to activate them uniformly.
The four box lids were opened at the same time, and a total of more than twenty light groups of different colors appeared.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zong Shen took a cursory glance and excluded those food and drink rewards first.
It also divides non-rare items into categories.
Needless to say about the equipment and low-level props.
Among them, I also got six [Wolf Cavalry Recruitment Scrolls], two [Earth Mage Recruitment Scrolls], and a fourth-level [Intermediate Wind Mage Recruitment Scroll].
In addition, there are four rare items, two pieces of equipment, one blueprint, and one unique prop.
Zong Shen organized quickly this time, collecting the recruitment scrolls with those he had obtained before, and also stored other props and equipment together, which will then be handed over to the responsible citizens in the territory.
He looked at the remaining four rare items. These were the final gains from the Winter Treasure Box in this challenge. It might not be easy to open so many treasure boxes in the future.
The first piece of equipment is a longbow.
[Scorpion Horn Longbow (Purple)]
【Hands】
[Quality: rare grade]
[Piercing damage: 61～64]
[Effective range: 450 meters]
[Effective shooting height: 280 meters]
[The effective range does not represent the actual range, and the power of the arrow will not be significantly weakened within this range]
[Durability: 350]
[Requires agility: 35]
[Strength required: 28]
[Skill: Scorpion Venom Shooting lv10 (makes the next three arrows fired with scorpion venom effect, which can cause pain, fatigue, irregular heartbeat, respiratory failure and other negative conditions to the target, cooling time is 2 hours)
Summon giant-tailed scorpions lv15 (summon two giant-tailed scorpions with level lv15 to assist in the battle, duration 10 minutes, cooling time 6 hours)】
(The bow arm is made from the carapace shed by the Commander-level giant-tailed scorpion. It is tough and flexible, making it a good war bow)
The length of this longbow is about 1.55 meters. The arms are khaki and have a black scorpion emblem engraved on them.
The bow handle wood in the middle has been wrapped, which looks pretty good based on its appearance.
He turned around and threw the [Scorpion Horn Longbow] directly into Madeline's hand.
"Take it, this bow is yours."
"Give your sister the fourth-level ranger standard bow you have."
Zong Shen said bluntly, then turned his head and continued to check.
