It was only now that Xue Hua finally saw clearly the nature of the "gold-swallowing behemoth" called the Insect Swarm.
The swarm is undoubtedly a very powerful war race, and its evolutionary potential is almost endless.
However, the premise of all this is to have enough resources to build up. To develop the scale of the insect swarm requires resources, to improve the quality of the insect swarm requires resources, to awaken the heroic units requires resources, and to let Leviathan exert its power requires a huge amount.
H.
What Xue Hua lacks most now is resources...
Obtaining resources by killing hell creatures is still the bulk of Xue Hua's resource income now. However, in the long run, compared to the evolution speed of the insect swarm, this is completely a drop in the bucket.
Therefore, finding rich mineral veins as soon as possible to lay down a real base to obtain a steady stream of resource supplements has become the top priority facing the insect swarm.
However, since the small mine vein was explored in the Evil Cave, the worker bees still have not found the second mining area, which undoubtedly has a great impact on the development of the insect swarm.
Xue Hua has been asking Isa to send out worker bees to conduct small-scale prospecting activities, but so far, this initiative has not achieved any results.
He had no choice but to comfort himself that what should be there would always be there.
"Hey...forget it, take your time..."
Xue Hua shook his head and led the swarm of insects away from the Bone Burial Ground. There was nothing in the ground here except corpses that turned into white bones and barren soil and stones. Even the monsters were blasted into pieces by the wave of explosions when the Blood Crow clone died.
It has become ashes and has lost all value to him.
...
Walking out of the stone path embedded in the mountain wall, Xue Hua led the swarm of insects back to the icy plains, preparing to hunt while returning to Rogge's camp.
But he soon discovered that the icy plain that was originally full of monster colonies seemed to suddenly become quiet. The vanguard of the insect swarm, the insect mother Tunam, sent the king insect to investigate everywhere, but no large groups of monsters were found.
, there are only a few scattered fallen demons and lonely huge beasts wandering in the wilderness of the icy plains.
Not even a single fallen magician was seen.
This is undoubtedly very abnormal.
"What's going on? What happened?" Xue Hua frowned and kept switching the vision of several king insects, but all he saw was an eerily quiet wasteland.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and a shocked expression appeared on his face, and he immediately ordered the king insect: "Expand the scope of investigation, focusing on the surrounding areas of the Cold Plains border post, and report any situation to me immediately!"
Xue Hua's expression was tense. He thought of the madly assembled army of hell projections he had detected before entering the Bone Burial Ground.
The investigation scope of the King Insects continues to expand, and the investigation results are quickly fed back.
Xue Hua's guess was right.
With the help of the high-altitude perspective of the King Insects, he saw the border post of the Cold Plains at this moment.
The place is being besieged by an army of hell projections as far as the eye can see.
The army of hell has gathered almost all types and numbers of monsters in the entire icy plain, including dark spearmen, giant beasts, sunken demons, sunken magicians, and even a whole group of black wanderers holding long bows!
At the rear of the hell army, a supervisory king insect captured a scene that made Xue Hua chill all over - thousands of elite monsters with blue light on their bodies and hundreds of champion monsters with golden halo on their bodies.
There are also tens of thousands of minions of all kinds.
Behind this group of terrifying monsters, there are two figures standing quietly with a rich dark golden light. One is wearing black and white leather armor and a horn helmet, and the long bow in his hand is exuding dots.
The dark wanderer of Han Star, and the other is a fallen magician with dark golden skin and holding a huge bone staff studded with human skulls.
With just one glance, Xue Hua understood who these two leader-level monsters were.
Cold Crow and Hoshio Bisu!
Moreover, these two guys are obviously not Dark Gold BOSS in normal state!
Because they are deploying their troops and generals, and are even using the different characteristics of the hell army to arrange their troops!
They put the most resistant and strongest giant beasts in the front row of the hell army, while the fallen demons followed behind the giant beasts, the dark spearmen were placed on the flanks, and the smaller number of fallen magicians were surrounded by a large group of
The assigned elite dark spearmen and elite giant beasts were firmly protected in the middle.
The smallest number of black wanderers were organized into a separate team, and they wandered around the battlefield under the leadership of three champion black wanderers.
At the same time, all the remaining elite monsters and champion monsters were independently organized according to their racial characteristics and abilities, forming several combat groups and dispersed behind the fallen demon army, as if they were preparing to implement the "vanguard team" combat mode.
Seeing this scene, Xue Hua's hands and feet suddenly went cold, because the wisdom of these two guys reminded him of an enemy he had just faced - the Blood Crow clone!
As we all know, projections have no intelligence. They are just fragments of the power and will emitted by the devil itself, leaking through the gap between hell and the world of sanctuary.
The demons themselves don't care about the life or death of the projections, and certainly don't give them wisdom.
Only clones are qualified to let the demons themselves drop a seed of wisdom and consciousness to teach them how to think and how to fight more efficiently.
In the entire first world surrounding Rogge's camp, apart from Andariel's projection which has a certain degree of self-awareness because he is powerful enough, only Bisu Bosu's projection has extremely weak tactical awareness. The other BOSS's projections only have at most some self-awareness.
instinct.
But Bisu Bosu's projection only knows how to gather groups.
Such a tactically sophisticated troop deployment cannot be accomplished by a projection.
So that means those two guys are both clones?
Xue Hua's eyes twitched fiercely, and he had the urge to turn around and go back to the burial ground.
At first, a single and weak Blood Crow clone put him in a dilemma and almost suffered heavy losses. Now, there are two clones, and there are so many blue monsters, gold monsters and ordinary monsters around.
This number is estimated to be one hundred thousand, right?
I'm afraid there's more...
At this time, Xue Hua still didn't know that the Xuewu he killed was just a fragment of the clone. The real demon clones were all above level 60, and the boss clones were at least level 70.
If he knew, he would probably go back to the burial ground right now.
But fortunately, the Cold Plains is big enough, and he is still far away from the frontline battlefield. There is no need to run in such a hurry, let's take a look first.
Moreover, with such a large army of demonic projections pressing down on the territory, I believe Rogge’s camp will not remain unresponsive.
Sure enough, Xue Hua saw the scene inside the outpost from the sight of another surveillance king insect.
The originally high log fence city wall was once again heightened, and there was an additional platform behind the city wall. The platform was now filled with Rogge archers.
In addition to the Rogge guards, there are many mages, necromancers, Amazons and other professions who are proficient in long-range attacks also standing side by side with the Rogge shooters.
There are also some paladins and barbarians. Although they are not good at long-range attacks, the former can provide aura amplification, and the latter can provide battle cry enhancement. At critical moments, they can also control the field with "Howl" and "Taunt" for protection.
Beneath the outside of the log fence, the surveillance king insect's anti-stealth vision detected a dense layer of traps, which were the work of high-level assassins.
A group of druids and necromancers gathered at the city gate with their summons, obviously a reserve team ready to use the summons to relieve pressure in critical moments.
Not far behind the city wall, a red-haired woman wearing a red leather coat and silver-white chain mail stood there with her arms folded. Next to her, there was a female giant more than two meters tall, holding two war hammers.
Of course I know that woman in red, Xue Hua, Kasha.
But I have never seen that tall woman Xue Hua, but she always feels familiar.
While Xue Hua was frowning and thinking about who this was, the two women suddenly raised their heads and looked towards the direction of the Supervisory King Insect.
"Not good!" Xue Hua was shocked and quickly asked the Supervisory King Insect to look away. Unfortunately, it was too late. A sharp arrow emitting red fire and a roaring throwing ax had already flown in front of the Supervisory King Insect.
!
"Fuck!!"
Fortunately, the location of the Overwatch King Insect was still too high after all. The two attacks lost their accuracy when they reached this height, and flew over with the body of the Overwatch Overlord Insect.
However, despite this, Xue Hua was still broken into a cold sweat.
Damn, is this still a human being?
The Overwatch King is in the stratosphere! The stratosphere!
You shot an arrow into the stratosphere?
How could you throw an ax into the stratosphere?
You guys are so ****, why don't you just slap each other and kill the two clones?
Xue Hua complained crazily in his heart and quickly told the Supervisory King Insect to stay away from these two monsters.
