Chapter 518: House Stealing Plan, Murloc Scout [5K]
This plan was also a spur-of-the-moment idea.
While floating in the air, he came up with this bold idea.
At that time, he saw that almost all the fishmen had run out.
The murloc tribes around the lake must have become empty nests.
At most, there are only a few murloc cubs and a small number of patrolling murloc teams still in the tribe.
For this reason, Zong Shen specifically used the strategy module to check the number of murlocs below while he was still floating in the air.
The answer he got indirectly proved his guess.
Don't look at it, the fish people have launched a massive attack and are rushing towards the top of the mountain.
In fact, now is the best opportunity to raid the murloc tribe.
"Let's go Yingjiang, target the north shore of the lake!"
Zong Shen stretched out his right arm and gave instructions to Yingjiang.
"Bah!"
Yingjiang also raised his neck and let out a loud chirp.
This chirping made those fishmen very afraid.
In a sense, large raptor monsters like Yingjiang can be considered their natural enemies.
The eagle flapped its wings, forming a large shadow in the sky, quickly passing over the foot of the mountain and flying towards the lake.
Zong Shen had no intention of hiding this action.
As a dragon-veined griffon, Yingjiang has a super speed advantage.
Even if these fishmen sense that something is wrong, it will take at least ten minutes to return to the lake.
There is no way, fast speed is just willful!
It didn't take even two minutes for this distance to reach the sky above the Riptide Tribe.
During this period, we also passed through the thick mist area on the lake.
It lingers above the northern shore of the lake.
This is the main part of the Riptide Tribe.
Except for the wooden houses scattered around.
There are also some strange buildings that look like large water tanks.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the tall, flat-topped pyramid-shaped altar.
The height of this altar is forty or fifty meters.
It is divided into more than twenty levels, all composed of polished square stones.
There are steps leading to the top in each of the four directions.
On the top of the altar is a square pool about 2 meters long and wide.
The water inside still exudes a gleaming green light even in the dark night.
To be on the safe side, Zong Shen let Yingjiang fall on the northern edge of the Riptide tribe.
"Please mark for me a location in the Riptide tribe that is valuable for looting."
While Yingjiang landed, Zong Shen began to ask questions to the strategy module.
Fifteen or sixteen aperture marks began to appear in his field of vision.
These aperture marks are large or small, with different distances and directions.
Most of them are concentrated in the northern part of the Riptide tribe, and less than one-half of the golden halo is distributed on the east and west coasts.
The largest aperture mark is actually on the altar.
This shows that this altar has unique value.
It can be of use to Zong Shen.
Eagle sauce fell from outside the village.
Zong Shen raised his hand and pointed at the sky and then at himself.
"Yingjiang, just keep flying."
"Waiting for my call."
"Be ready to respond on arrival at any time."
After hearing his clear instructions, Ying Jiang nodded humanely.
Its limbs are very distinctive, with the front two being the strongest, like the claws of a giant dragon.
The rear two limbs are like the soles of a lion's feet.
When necessary, its limbs serve as landing gear.
In addition to assisting landing, it can also be used to pick up people in an emergency.
Both the forelimbs and hind limbs are much larger than those of ordinary humans.
You can hold its toes and fly into the air.
Yingjiang didn't waste much time, flapped her wings and flew up, hovering at a height of five or six hundred meters in the air.
The bright moonlight above its head became flickering under the cover of its huge wingspan and body shape.
There are also obvious changes in light and shadow on the ground.
There is no firelight in the murloc tribe. These guys have average eyesight and have no need for night lighting, because the eyes are only one of their senses, and they have other senses that can come in handy at close range.
Zong Shen took the lead and moved forward. The four Rodok sergeants entered ax and shield mode, forming two-by-two groups to protect both sides of the team.
The mages and rangers followed Zong Shen and were at the core of the team.
At this time, the entire fishman tribe was very quiet.
Zong Shen's goal is clear. He has 10 minutes to go, which is the time that the group of murlocs can come back.
Loot as many valuable targets as possible marked by golden circles on the north shore.
This opportunity is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
You don't have to fight fishmen to death, but you can still get treasures.
The entire north bank is very large, larger than the east and west banks combined.
There are a total of seven golden circle markers here, and some of them should be treasure chests.
The rest may be native treasures of the Riptide tribe.
Zong Shen carefully led the team into the tribe.
Walk among the simple igloos.
There is slippery and muddy ground underfoot.
My feet feel sticky when I step on them, as if they have been smeared with a thick layer of snot.
"Bah..."
Each step forward will make a clear "chirp" sound.
Sometimes it even sticks to your feet and can cause stringing when you step on it.
This kind of ground is really disgusting.
Fortunately, it is not slippery, so as long as you get used to this unique feeling, you can move forward happily.
Following the golden circle mark, Zong Shen came to the mark closest to the landing point.
According to the precise guidance of the mark, this mark is located inside an ordinary dome wooden house.
The wooden houses here have wooden pile foundations and simple stairs.
There is no door, and when you look in from the outside, you can only see a dark space.
Zong Shen took out the [Magic Flashlight], turned on the brightness, and walked up the stairs.
When he was about to step into the door, he conveniently drew out the [Rumble Hammer in the Skull].
He shined his flashlight into the cabin.
The interior of the house is very simple, there are not even any furnishings.
There are only some scattered skeletal fragments.
In addition, there are some large green leaves similar to banana leaves.
Zong Shen ducked into the dome wooden house with his back bent.
Following the mark, Zong Shen opened huge green leaves, and there was a silver treasure chest hidden inside.
It looks like it may be a collection of the fish-men who live in this wooden house.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zong Shen glanced at it, it was not a trap treasure chest.
He collected it directly.
He didn't have time to study the features of the fish-men tribe.
The most important task now is to take care of the North Shore as soon as possible.
As for the East and West sides, we can only give up this time.
He jumped down from the door nimbly and jumped to the ground.
The wooden houses of fishmen are very compact in size, suitable for their stature.
For normal humans, they need to bow down to enter.
The next marked point is also near here.
Zong Shen and the others moved very quickly.
This marker is also a small dome cabin.
With clear guidance, it only took Zong Shen a few dozen seconds to find something.
This is a rare black harpoon.
It looks much shorter than his [Wind, Fire and Thunder Trident].
The two marking points were completed, and only three or four minutes had passed.
They were walking freely in the Riptide Tribe, and there were no murloc sentries.
According to Zong Shen's previous investigation, there should be one or two hundred murloc warriors staying in the tribe.
I don’t know if they stayed on the east and west coasts, or if something else happened.
Zong Shen originally wanted to divide his forces to improve efficiency.
However, the buildings in the fishman tribe are very scattered.
Those dome cabins are again made from the same mold.
Just on the north side of the lakeshore, there are at least seven to eight hundred dome cabins.
The soldiers had no eye-catching golden circles to guide them, so even if Zong Shen told them the approximate location, it would be useless.
Nine times out of ten, it will take more time than going there in person.
Therefore, Zong Shen's goal is very clear.
As long as you act fast enough, you can still make it in time.
He placed the largest golden circle, the altar, at the end.
His intuition told him that the things there were definitely the best, but they were also definitely the most famous.
Ten minutes of preparation time may not be enough time to get it done.
Once you are dragged down here, it will be a hard battle after the murloc army returns.
Caniggia and the others have just cast a round of magic.
Those high-level group attack magics have a cooldown time of several hours.
Don't even think about launching a second round of magic offensive in a short time.
However, Zong Shen had previously exchanged a lot of goblin bombs and powerful magic scrolls.
These things are valuable, and Zong Shen has a more important use.
And he has already tasted the sweetness of taming griffins.
Existences similar to the shallow-water murlocs of the Riptide Tribe.
To other lords, it is just a "wild monster".
But to Zong Shen, the value of these guys far exceeds the meager experience points gained when killing them.
Taming is a better method than killing.
The most important point is that it is very feasible to tame wild monsters.
They do not take up associated control points.
Moreover, the future route and direction of the lords is to form a hybrid army.
These wild monsters are also an important supplement to combat power.
Especially Zong Shen now has the advantage in high-end combat power.
The weak but numerous cannon fodder wild monsters like the Murlocs are actually very helpful for his future conquests.
Including that he later opened up territory adjacent to the water.
Murlocs are also an excellent choice for combat.
Therefore, he had a plan. Anyway, the Riptide tribe was here, and it was impossible for the whole tribe to move.
Even if it's too late this time, there will be opportunities in the future.
At least get the easy stuff first.
The rest of the small golden circles are easy to do, and there are no difficulties or barriers.
Just find it and take it with you.
Their footsteps were hurried and they walked confidently and boldly within the tribe.
I quickly found five small apertures.
It took twelve or thirteen minutes in total.
The sound of fishmen swimming can already be heard in the distance.
Because of the obstruction of a large number of dome cabins and the darkness, the view is affected.
So they couldn't see how many murlocs had driven back.
However, the sound of swimming was very dense, and it was conservatively estimated that there were at least two to three thousand murlocs.
Otherwise, it would not be able to make such a noisy splashing sound.
There is still a small golden circle and a large golden circle left.
They are outside the location marked by the little gold circle.
This is a large wooden house.
It is no longer a dome, but a rare square top.
The roof is paved with many large green leaves.
In addition to the faint fishy smell, there is also a peculiar milky smell.
The milky aroma is like heated goat's milk, with a slight odor.
The fishy smell is not surprising. In fact, the entire Riptide tribe has a fishy smell.
It's almost like entering the live fish section of the wet market.
And this weird milk smell is not normal.
Zong Shen didn't bother to think carefully and walked up quickly.
Not only is this house much larger than the original cabin, it also has a higher foundation.
The height difference from the ground to the steps is 1.56 meters.
Zong Shen stepped forward on the simple wooden stairs.
Aim the flashlight into the house and when you are about to step in.
The light in front of him suddenly became obviously distorted.
It was like something flashed by.
Warning signs rose in Zong Shen's heart, and he held the [Roaring Hammer in the Skull] in his right hand and held it in front of him.
He felt two less obvious air currents blowing from the left and right.
A stream of air came from the right, targeting his head wearing a battle helmet.
Another stream of air came from the front left, apparently targeting his chest.
Zong Shen subconsciously tilted his head.
"bite!"
"Qiang!"
【-136】
Two crisp sounds, one light and one heavy, appeared.
At the same time, it also caused a massive amount of damage.
A sharp black thorn pierced his helmet and quickly pulled it out.
Zong Shen felt a chill on the side of his face, as if blood was flowing out.
This should be the source of the airflow on the right side.
The black spikes are about 50 centimeters long and have sharp front ends, making them look a bit sinister.
Its original goal was to attack Zong Shen's eyes through the eye slits of the battle helmet.
If he hadn't sensed it and turned his head, he might have become a little blind man.
In this way, he almost pierced through the helmet, making him feel that his head had received some impact.
The other attack was also a black thorn, but it did not attack Zong Shen himself.
Instead, he quickly pierced the [Magic Flashlight] in his hand.
The light dimmed again.
Zong Shen subconsciously grabbed the mace in his hand and swung it out, but it missed.
This shows that the two guys who attacked him have higher agility and reaction capabilities than his perception.
When the flashlight was damaged, Zong Shen fell into darkness.
The soldiers behind him also poured into the room at this time.
Zong Shen narrowed his eyes slightly and asked the strategy module to change the target and lock the hostile target in the room for him.
Doris raised her hand and chanted, sending out a small fireball that hit the side wall of the room.
The light of the fireball briefly drove away the darkness in the house.
Zong Shen has also locked two stealth targets based on the strategy.
The situation inside the house was more complicated than they expected.
This room actually has partitions, and about one-third of the room is separated by wooden walls.
There is even a very simple wooden door.
Compared with other cabins, this place is much weirder.
"Chi chi chi..."
At this tense moment, a "chirp" sound similar to that of a small mouse came from the cubicle.
The sound was not very obvious, but it was still noticed by Zong Shen, who was very nervous.
The exact location of the gold circle mark is in the compartment.
But now Zong Shen has no intention of considering the issue of partitions.
The two sneaking figures were still wandering around the house.
The speed is very fast, at least the movement level of a fourth-level assassin.
No sound was made.
Only the faint surge of air proved that they were still moving.
If Zong Shen hadn't been able to directly target them with the strategy module, it would have been really not an easy task to determine the locations of these two guys.
Just now, Doris' fireball hit the wall and exploded into a ball of sparks, which then went out.
There is a lot of slime in the room and on the walls, and it would be a dream to ignite it with a small fireball.
Doris reacted quickly and had already started chanting Flame Claws.
No one else dared to act rashly.
Especially the lawyers.
Magic arrows or magic bullets are difficult to target.
And this wooden house is not suitable for using magic that is too destructive.
Zong Shen focused on the two fast-moving guys.
This house is so big that they can always find a suitable place to stay.
This is especially the case when Zong Shen approaches consciously.
"Open the door and enter the compartment."
He gave the order decisively. The most important thing was to get the things in this room first.
Everyone left and walked toward the wooden door of the compartment.
Zong Shen stood on the spot, constantly turning his body to lock the positions of the two guys.
When everyone came to the door of the compartment, the two figures suddenly stopped.
Regardless, he rushed towards the wooden door, seemingly trying to prevent them from opening it.
At this time, Zong Shen seemed to understand something.
His figure also moved accordingly.
These two guys had no clear goals before, so it was not easy to catch them.
Now that their motives are known, Zong Shen can easily launch a counterattack.
His steps moved lightly and his body quickly moved sideways for several meters.
The mace in his hand hit one of the sneak targets hard.
"puff!"
"Chi chi chi..."
A stream of bright red blood spurted out, and the figure flew out directly.
【-192】
Zong Shen's one-handed mace is not so easy to bear.
Another sneak target went around from the side.
At this time, the four sergeants Rhodok had already made preparations.
They all raised their large square shields to form a not-so-tight shield wall.
In fact, the assassin-type targets like this are most afraid of heavy infantry.
The figure that was knocked away by Zong Shen was injured and fell to the ground several meters away.
An unclear black figure gradually emerged.
There is no doubt that this is a fish-man.
But the level is not low, reaching the commander level.
The other black fishman couldn't break through Sergeant Rodok's defensive circle.
He had no choice but to step back, revealing his body and helping the fish-man who was injured by Zong Shen.
Zong Shen was holding a mace and did not choose to pursue.
The soldiers behind him had used brute force to break open the wooden door.
In this regard, the two black fishmen could only do nothing.
This is an unequal battle to begin with.
"Chi chi chi chi!"
The fish-man with the other hand helped the injured fish-man up, and at the same time made an unpleasant "chichi" sound to Zong Shen.
Sorry, Zong really doesn’t understand!
He took a step forward and stared away.
The two black fishmen were also frightened.
He stepped back one after another, his flippers making a snapping sound on the ground.
