"Very dangerous? According to legend, aren't you elves masters of weapons and spells?" Polu couldn't believe that he could hear such news from the elves. Leonardo and Leah also looked surprised.
"There are too many, and now these things are rushing straight up, and we are helpless." Edith looked helpless.
"And the most important issue now is that we are not afraid of them one-on-one, but we can't stop them. At first we tried to subdue and heal these animals. Many elves were injured because of this. But later we found out that if this
When animals grow carapace, there is no way to cure them, and it is almost all in vain. You can even feel the transformation of the natural force in them from grief to disgust. Soon the uniform becomes
It became annihilation. But the weapons of our rangers were not developed to face this kind of melee situation. This kind of double sword." He said as he slapped the pair of double swords as thin as willow leaves and richly decorated on the table.
." It is very suitable for our characteristics. It is also very useful in small-scale one-on-one situations, but it seems a bit weak when facing such a battle situation. Paddling and pulling can hardly pose a threat to these transformed animals, and light
The thin blade cannot be used for stabbing. It lacks the ability to kill with one blow. When several big guys surround you, all they can do is run away. If you can't kill them in one hit, you can't bet that you will get more than one dozen.
You can win. Every ranger warrior has made many knives in his long career. Each elf will have different knives at different stages, but now they are basically broken. If the carapace is broken, cut it in.
The ones that were twisted later, and the ones that couldn't be recovered after being blown away. As a result, we now even lack a pair of knives. Huh, I can't believe that we don't even have time to make knives. The most uncomfortable thing is that we concentrated
We can kill mages, but they go around our outpost and attack the creatures near us. We can only go out and catch them. This will make it difficult for mages to perform, and they can't attack casually, which will be very uncomfortable."
"Wait a minute, you said they walked around your fixed stronghold?"
"right."
"Oh my god, isn't it also directed and organized?"
"It's okay, there's nothing strange about it. We haven't seen fallen druids before." Edith looked at a few people with a rare and strange look. After all, they are longevity species, and their mentality is very stable.
"So this time the impact was mainly large animals with carapace? There were almost no humanoid creatures?" Leonardo asked. After all, it was a military question, so it was more appropriate for him to ask it.
"There are no humanoid creatures. There are only large animals. There are some medium-sized monsters mixed in, but they are still mainly large animals. For example, bears, tigers, elk, etc." Edith answered with certainty.
"It's very strange. Many of the units we encounter are mainly humanoid units. We call these humanoid units bug-men." Leonardo had a look of distress on his face that I couldn't understand.
Suddenly an idea flashed in Bolu's mind, and he seemed to have grasped some clue. He asked:
"So, are these animals and monsters common local creatures?"
"Yes. But it has mutated to some extent."
"Are they all large creatures? There are no particularly small ones, such as the size of a squirrel?"
"No, we deliberately counted the species, but no small animals were included."
"Isn't it basically dead silence wherever they pass?"
"How do you know?"
"We have encountered such a situation before, so this is interesting. If these creatures have the same characteristics as local creatures, could it be that this kind of thing was transformed locally? Could it be that the dead zone is because
All the small animals were eaten by large creatures? After all, those things have the function of strengthening.
Use. If they are all large-sized creatures, will this transformation increase to the top of the food chain as small animals are eaten? Have you ever seen a tree that looks like a living thing? It has very disgusting wriggling roots.
You can tell at a glance and you will not be mistaken." Polu recalled the log he had seen at the experimental center.
"That hasn't been discovered yet. It's already very difficult to intercept these mutant creatures running around, and there's no way to send out a search team."
Edith looked at Polu with admiration.
"Then it's not easy to be sure. I now suspect that a source of infection has taken root in the mountains, but I don't know where it is."
Bolu sighed, while Leonardo was more concerned about the bugs.
"Did you also see big bugs? How many types were observed?"
"One is similar to a beetle, similar in size to a wolf. It is covered with armor and has blade feet. It is very fast and relies on its blade feet to attack. The other is much larger, generally about 3 meters high. It travels slowly but can travel far.
It shoots a kind of bone spike from a distance, and it is very durable. Of course, all large creatures are very durable, but the durability of this thing is beyond imagination. Apart from exploding arrows or bone-piercing shots, the ranger can hardly use this thing.
There is no way. You need explosive arrows
Arrows and bone-piercing shooting require too high levels, and not many elves can do it. There is still a carapace on the surface, and it is difficult to use a knife to cut it. We have no objection to bugs, but these bugs not only lack beauty in appearance, but also appear everywhere.
Killing, either to eat or to kill. They are by no means native creatures. I feel the disgust of natural will from them, the kind of undisguised disgust towards predatory natural enemies. This feeling is very rare.
"
"That means that no matter what kind of means can be used to eliminate these damn bugs? They are all actions appreciated by the natural will, right?"
"Yes, that's easy to handle. When I first saw you, I was afraid that you were the kind of extremist who believes that bugs are part of nature."
"Ah, there are no such elves, but they are all banned by the Presbyterian Council." Edith showed an embarrassed look.
"We have seen the second bug you just mentioned from a distance, but we didn't know what kind of attack methods they have. Now we know. I want to know, do you rely on explosive arrows to eliminate this big bug?
"
"Yes, at least you don't have to rush up to fight with the explosive arrow. Its front claws are too powerful, so you can't resist it forcefully, so you can only fight while hanging. When we first encountered it, we sacrificed several people in one encounter. Later we found that the explosive arrow can be effective.
Attack it with about 10 to 12 arrows, and its carapace will break. Just use arrows.
We all think it's a good deal to avoid casualties. At least all our rangers can make explosive arrows. But their bone nails are very threatening, and trees as thick as their chests can't stop them. Ordinary metal shields can't withstand it either. They say they're bone nails.
, but it’s so strong that it can’t be cut with a knife. I suspect it can be used as a magic material.”
Hearing this, Polu searched for explosive arrows in his mind. Strangely, there was no such thing in Ibulcek's factory information, which Polu considered very basic. He secretly turned to Leah and asked: "We
Why no explosive arrows?"
"We don't even have bows and arrows, who will study explosive arrows?" Leah gave Bolu a strange look. Ah, I forgot about this. Bolu wanted to cover his face. This system can only search for entries.
, I couldn’t answer the question of why other than what was clearly recorded in the data, which was very embarrassing. But there was one thing that Boru didn’t think through. “Can’t the explosive arrow make up for the lack of power of the bow and arrow?”
"How much does it cost for a knight to throw a javelin? Can you afford to shoot this kind of magic arrow? One of them costs at least ten gold coins, right? You can't afford it at all. The elves can only afford it if they know how to make it themselves."
Sure enough, the weapons used by the military were just enough provided by the contractor with the lowest bid.
Bolu was speechless. Well, the guerrillas who can fight and produce are really powerful.
By the time he came to his senses, the conversation had already gone in another direction.
Leonardo was saying: "Have you ever thought that maybe this kind of double sword is not suitable for facing this kind of enemy? Is it because you lack frontal troops?"
"It is true that there is a lack of frontal troops. There are many animals living in the Central Mountains that are too big and resilient to kill with one hit. After they are transformed, they will rush up like a tide, and they will soon be scattered and become a melee.
In the past, we were in the forest, and I had the advantage. Nowadays, many of these things are transformed by local organisms, and they are also very adaptable. In this way, our terrain advantage is offset, and it is really difficult.
Of course I thought about it. The double swords were not suitable. It would have taken a lot of effort to carry a carapace. But we couldn't make a more suitable one for a while. Now we all want to make some long-handled weapons, maybe stack them for two people.
The damage to such a tall large animal is higher. But the long handle is very difficult to use in the woods." It seems that Edith is really filled with resentment and said so many words in one breath, which is very inconsistent.
His aloof image.
Every cell in Bolu's body who was listening suddenly started screaming! Business is coming! After suddenly realizing this, Bolu suddenly felt that he had other things to do. He stood up and said, "Wait a moment."
I'll give it a try." He turned around and ran to the new studio next to him.
After a while, Bolu ran back with several weapons and put them on the table. As soon as Edith saw a pair of warhammers among them, she couldn't take her eyes off them. These were a pair of rose-style warhammers.
It was something that Lu made when he was practicing handicrafts. In fact, after he finished it, Polu didn’t even think about it.
One day I can put it out for show. I did this mainly to practice complex curved surface processing. The hammer handle was added when I had nothing to do. It looks very light, and the curve of the entire hammer head looks like an inverted bell shape.
The curled petals composed of summarized curves are shining with cold light, and the petals stand upright.
The tilt of the body gradually closed into a ball, forming the shape of a bone flower. In the process, the technique also changed from round carving to relief, and was even coated with a layer of silver. From the top, it looks like a half-open rose, with a central
The silver wire fireball formation dripping with crystals shines brightly, and the leaves under the flowers are simplified to 4
A cross with sharp nails. "If you have magic power, you can even use it to hit things with a fireball to attack your target. Because of the silver coating, the fireball can still be released, but of course not too much."
Big. "It's just that the magic circle is easily damaged. Of course, Polu didn't say this.
There is no doubt that elves who naturally prefer elegant styles have never thought of the heavy warhammers that have put any effort into it for so many years. Double swords and bows and arrows are their favorites. Therefore, he must have never seen such weapons before.
He stood up and picked up the warhammer: "What an outstanding weapon! Humanity has always had some people with such creative power."
