The night in the Cold Field is just like its name. It is quite cold. It was so cold that Xue Hua was still shivering from the cold even after being wrapped in three thick blankets. Fortunately, the physique of a professional prevented him from getting sick. He was just cold.
Just couldn't sleep well.
At times like this, Xue Hua misses the human "Firebat" in the StarCraft game. This is a human soldier who can spray ultra-high-temperature flames from the injectors on his hands. Unfortunately, Xue Hua does not have it.
He inherited the clan base, and the Zerg units were basically not good at using the energy of "fire". Even because of the thick exoskeleton armor, even their bodies were cold, making him completely unable to hold them for warmth...
...
In the end, it was too cold to sleep, so Xue Hua simply ordered the hydralisks to open several large holes in the roof of the house, then lit a bonfire in the house, and then managed to fall asleep.
It was a calm night. The Queen of Insects and her swarm of insects kept vigil for Xue Hua so that he didn't need to worry about the sneak attacks of monsters. Of course, sometimes unlucky ghosts would be reborn into the house, but Xue Hua had not been able to do this until now.
I haven't encountered it a few times, so I can basically ignore it.
In the early morning of the next day, when Xue Hua crawled out of the blanket shivering, he was surprised to find that he had reached level five, and Leviathan had nearly 500 more crystal energy points in its resource pool.
.
After asking Isa, he learned that three waves of monsters wandered into the village last night, one wave of dark spearmen numbering around 20 and two waves of fallen demon tribes numbering over 70 and 100 respectively. Of course, these guys
Without exception, the insect swarm led by the insect queen was quickly wiped out.
Since the process was uneventful, Isha did not disturb Xue Hua who finally fell asleep.
"The number of monsters here is so overwhelming that I'm speechless. I don't know how other professionals live in the wild..."
Xue Hua saw a small pile of items dropped by various monsters piled at the door. After picking through them for a long time, he couldn't find anything useful, so he threw them all into the inventory while mumbling.
What he didn't know was that only he, a lunatic, would venture so far away from Rogge Outpost alone. Other adventurers were hunting and exploring in groups not far from Rogge Outpost.
Occasionally, those who go deep into the Cold Plains usually form large groups of at least ten people. Some professionals will form a team to go to the Bone Burial Ground after the Cold Plains reaches level eight, kill the Blood Crow's projection, and then return.
Go directly back to Rogge's camp to obtain the mercenary certificate. After hiring a Rogge as a mercenary, you can continue to explore the icy plains until you reach level ten before heading to the more dangerous stone wilderness.
And more professionals will choose to stay directly in the Cold Plains until around level ten, and then form a team with a reasonable configuration to go to the Stone Wilderness.
After cooking a pot of beef soup and meatloaf and eating it by the campfire, Xue Hua finally warmed up with the warmth of the campfire and the energy brought by the food. Only then did Xue Hua have time to open the inventory and take out the coveted knife.
The long-standing "Yi Luo's Torch", this staff finally showed its effect after he reached level five. The moment Xue Hua took it, a strange energy flowed from the staff into his body.
, and then the originally dark "Skeleton Dominance" skill in his skill bar was lit up... How strange!
Xue Hua looked at the still dark Domination Skeleton skill icon and felt confused for a moment. Then he suddenly remembered that it seemed like this was indeed the case in the game. The skill points added to the equipment are before you learn that skill.
None of them take effect...
"Okay, it seems I'm overthinking it...but..."
Xue Hua glanced at the skeletons running around around him and couldn't help but feel a twinge of pain in his balls. So he gritted his teeth decisively and invested the skill points he had just upgraded into the passive skill of "Skeleton Control".
The investment of skill points takes effect, and the dark icon is really lit up this time, and it directly becomes a second-level skill.
A vague connection was formed between Xue Hua and his skeletons the moment the skill icon lit up. This connection made him feel that he could command these skeletons.
So he tentatively let one of the skeletons walk in front of him while the other skeletons stayed still. As a result, these originally stupid and adorable guys actually did it!
"Hey! It's fun!"
Although as the master of the insect swarm, he already has a large army of insect swarms under his command, but commanding the arm-like insect swarm and commanding the skeleton are two completely different experiences. The former is like commanding one's own.
The body is as natural as the body, while the latter has a commanding nature, just like a superior commanding subordinates.
Although the former is more convenient to command, the latter is obviously more fun...
However, after playing for a while, Xue Hua also discovered that level one Domination Skeleton only allowed him to issue very rough commands to these skeletons, such as "forward", "backward", "attack", "come here", "go there"
"Wait a minute, skeletons cannot understand slightly more complex commands. Once they cannot understand a command, they will wander around in place, or simply stay still.
But this is enough. All Xue Hua needs is to let them cooperate with the insect swarm, and he does not intend to let them be the main attack. Besides, the effect of controlling the skeleton is not only to make the skeleton obedient, this skill will also strengthen the bones of the skeleton.
Strength and attack power make them more threatening on the battlefield.
Xue Hua originally planned to keep all the skill points obtained from the upgrade. After reaching level 6, he planned to use them on the "Corpse Explosion" skill of the Bone and Toxin system. In this way, plus the +1 skills of the weapon, the corpse explosion will be directly
Promoted to Level 2.
In the real world, the corpse explosion damage of the Necromancer is based on the power of the corpse during life. The stronger the owner of the corpse is, the more destructive the corpse explosion will be. If you have this ability, you can kill one of the three demons (anyone).
If the corpse comes up just once, I'm afraid everything nearby will be blown up and nothing will be left.
Of course, skill level is also one of the keys. The higher the skill level of corpse explosion, the higher the utilization rate of the body's power during death. For example, if you throw the body of a big pineapple into the Diamond Gate (high-level paradise)
If there is a corpse explosion coming from the gate), then the level one corpse explosion may only destroy half of the Diamond Gate, but if it is a level ninety-nine corpse explosion, it will directly kill half of the heaven.
This skill is one of the main output skills of the Necromancer both in the game and in the real world. Even the Summoning Necromancer will give priority to learning this skill if he has enough summoning skill level.
As for other skills in the Summoning, Cursing, and Bone and Poison systems, Xue Hua has no plans to learn them for the time being. In the Summoning system, he cannot find a way to strengthen the Necromancer's summons enough to be useful to him who has a swarm of insects.
It doesn't plan to invest skill points, and the sixth-level skills of the curse system are "weak dark vision" and "weakening". These two skills are not very helpful to the current Xue Hua. Reducing the monster's vision range and attack power will not reduce it.
It is of little significance to the swarm. Besides, with Iroh's torch, the first-level skills are enough for the time being. However, the other skills "Fang" of the Bone and Toxin series are of little significance and are not as powerful as Hydralisk's.
Thorns are strong, "Bone Armor" is good, but it's not worth investing too much in. "Venomed Dagger" is just a ridiculous skill and is completely ignored. All that's left is the explosion of corpses.
But unfortunately, the plan did not change quickly. After investing the upgraded skill points into "Domination Skeleton", Xue Hua only had one extra skill point left in his hand.
He invested a total of 4 skill points in the three skills of summoning skeletons, amplifying damage and controlling skeletons. Except for summoning skeletons, which was allocated two points, only one point was allocated to the other two skills.
After taking Iroh's torch, the skill level for summoning skeletons has not changed, but the damage amplification and skeleton control skills have become level two, which can be regarded as slightly strengthening his combat capabilities.
Fortunately, Xue Hua did not place all his hopes on his necromancer profession. For him, the development of the insect swarm is the most important thing now.
