This thing is called the 'Murloc Voodoo Sacrifice'. Its level is not very high, only level 5 to 7, and its health points are pitiful, mostly between five and six hundred points. However, this is a truly intelligent creature among the murlocs. Not only can it control the actions of other fishmen to a certain extent, but it also has a very difficult ability: spreading plague!
This kind of murloc mage can bless other murlocs with a deathrattle-type plague. This plague is ineffective against the murlocs and usually does not break out. However, once someone kills a murloc with the plague, they will be infected with the plague. , continuously reducing health at a rate of 5 points per second for 60 seconds.
More importantly, this plague can also be transmitted to other people within two meters nearby, making other people a source of infection and continuing cross-infection...
This magic can be said to be the nemesis of the human sea tactic, because if you are infected by this kind of plague, the only way is to immediately run to the open space for isolation, and then come back after the effect of the plague has passed.
However, the soldiers on the defense line are so densely packed now, how can there be any space to spread out? If one person is hit, basically everyone is hit.
Fortunately for the players, no matter how low their health points are, they only have a few hundred points. Even if they are exposed to the plague once, it will not kill them. Moreover, they have enough time to react and quickly distance themselves to avoid further infection.
But ordinary soldiers suffered a disaster. Their health points were only about 100 points. Once they were infected by the plague, they would die suddenly within 20 seconds. In such a short period of time, most people would not have time to react.
"No, tell the ordinary soldiers to stop and don't fire!"
Seeing that layers of green mist began to appear on the surrounding murlocs under the spell cast by the murloc wizard, Mu You hurriedly looked at Zhang Yang and said.
"Ah?" Zhang Yang was stunned.
Mu You explained the effects of the cursed plague in a concise and concise manner as quickly as possible. After hearing this, Zhang Yang's face changed drastically and he hurriedly turned on the intercom to pass on the information.
The command above was also shocked when they received the news, and immediately issued new instructions to all lines of defense.
It's just that it's still a step too late. The transmission of information ultimately takes time, and by the time the order is conveyed to various defense lines, most of the defense lines have already entered the shooting range and started exchanging fire.
And this firing is equivalent to poking a hornet's nest.
Lines of green mist appeared on some soldiers or players everywhere, and then spread to their surrounding companions at an extremely fast speed.
The order was decentralized in a timely manner. After learning that this thing was contagious, the infected people hurriedly ran away, while the people around them also stayed away as much as possible to cut off the source of infection as quickly as possible.
However, due to lack of experience, many people were still tricked on a large scale at the beginning.
Players who have dispelling magic and props use them immediately to help their surrounding companions dispel the plague, but those who don’t have it will suffer. Especially for ordinary people, a plague can cause up to 300 points of damage, even if there are people nearby. Healing players often couldn't get their blood back, and the number of deaths at each line of defense began to increase rapidly.
Not to mention other lines of defense, even on Mu You's side, there was a teammate who focused on long-range. He opened fire before Mu Youlin opened his mouth, and ended up contracting the plague. At this time, six people gathered in one place, and they were all hit in an instant. Got the move.
Fortunately, they are all players, and there are only a few of them. There are only six of them on the huge defense line, so this plague has little impact.
"What should we do now?" Zhang Yang looked at Mu You and asked.
This plague is indeed very troublesome. If you fight it, you will be infected and you will continue to lose blood. If you don't fight it, you will be rushed by the murlocs, but the problem still cannot be solved.
"There is no other way but to fight."
Mu You shook his head and glanced at the green mist on his body: "Fortunately, this thing will not overlap. Since it is already infected, let's just fire with all our strength. Lao Liu has brushed up the blood and prepared the healing potions. I think If you can't hold on any longer, go to the back to recover blood."
Others have no objections. The only solution for now is to deal with this wave of monsters as soon as possible.
Mu You first set up his bow and arrow, filled a bottle of explosive potion, and shot an arrow into the sky. The arrow drew a beautiful parabola, like a missile, and accurately hit the head of the distant fish-man wizard. A bursting arrow is enough to harvest this crispy mage.
Then three more explosive arrows came down in succession, clearing out all the fish-man wizards within the defense line.
Others also seized the opportunity to fire, and the style of play was still the same as before.
As an auxiliary, Liu Chen naturally has healing magic. From time to time, he releases a healing light wave, which continuously increases the health of several people. Coupled with the occasional drug abuse, the team's health line has always remained stable.
Soon, this wave of impact was safely defended by them.
However, other lines of defense were not so lucky. Faced with the effect of this plague, the large number of people became an obstacle. At the beginning, there was a scene of people falling on their backs, which was quite chaotic.
Fortunately, the wisdom and adjustment ability of humans are not comparable to that of murlocs. After experiencing the initial chaos, all defense lines quickly adjusted. Relying on reasonable enough positioning and spell coordination, they finally maintained the rhythm and did not continue the chaos. .
This wave of attacks was successfully defended in the end, but it could only be described as a miserable victory.
A large number of casualties made the atmosphere at all defense lines dull.
Moreover, two consecutive high-intensity attacks also filled the entire front with a tense mood. Everyone began to worry about what to do next. If the Murloc's charge continued to increase at this intensity, let alone last a whole day. One or two strikes are enough to destroy all lines of defense.
Fortunately, things did not develop in the worst direction. The intensity of the subsequent murloc charge, instead of increasing, quickly weakened.
In the end, the murlocs no longer even launched large-scale charges, and all turned into stragglers running ashore to see them off.
Zhang Yang was overjoyed: "Maybe our master has worked!"
Muyou and the others did not leave in a hurry, but stayed on the front line to continue watching for a while. As a result, the fishmen were never able to organize an effective attack.
This makes Mu You a little bit regretful. It will be difficult to encounter such an opportunity to gain experience efficiently in the future...
Later, the 19th section here was also taken over by the army.
Mu You was able to retreat to the rear to rest. After fighting continuously for an afternoon, he was indeed a little tired.
After meditating for more than an hour in the lounge provided by the military and returning to full state, Muyou went online and played the game for a while.
At this time, Zhang Yang suddenly knocked on the door and walked into his room.
"There is a secret operation. I wonder if you are interested in participating."
"Oh? What?" Mu You asked.
Zhang Yang went to close the door, then sat down and whispered: "The great gods on the other side of the door sent back news, saying that they discovered an ancient altar of the fish people. It is this thing that is constantly attracting fish people to come closer, and it is still there. People from the Ten Commandments Society were found on the other side..."
Zhang Yang said solemnly: "According to the intelligence of the great gods, there is a hinterland of a giant swamp opposite the door. This altar should have been artificially activated by the players of the Ten Commandments Society. The great gods were trying to find a way to dismantle it, but they were stopped by the people of the Ten Commandments Society. . And this group of people seems to be crazy this time, desperate to fight with our people, and the great gods are temporarily entangled and unable to escape..."
"It means we need to send someone to support, right?" Mu You understood instantly.
"Yes, but not everyone can go to this support. The swamp connected to the opposite side is located in the hinterland of the Star Spirit Realm. There are many poison-type monsters in it and are full of dangers. Ordinary players will die if they enter. So the above meaning is to form a Several elite teams composed of players above level ten entered."
Zhang Yang took a breath and said seriously: "Let me tell you first, this mission is very dangerous, because no one knows what you will encounter on the other side, so it is not mandatory. The above just asked us to inform you players above level ten that you don't want to go. If so, you can refuse directly..."
"Go, of course!"
Mu You nodded and responded directly. He was regretting that the monster spawning just now was not satisfying enough. Now he could go directly to the murloc's lair, which was exactly what he wanted.
As for the danger, he is not too worried. He has many life-saving means. Moreover, it is almost night, and the vampire skin that has been dormant for a day can finally be used. Regardless of level suppression at night, in terms of attributes alone, he But it is no worse than ordinary great players.
"Okay, here's this for you."
Zhang Yang didn't seem too surprised by his choice. He took out a box from his body and handed it to Mu You.
"This is this?" Mu You opened it and saw a bloody magatama in the box.
[Vampire Magatama: A weapon that can levitate and move at will. After being struck, it turns into a high-speed rotating hidden weapon. When it hits a creature, it quickly absorbs the creature's energy and blood and converts it into its own health. The farther away the magatama is from the controller, the weaker the control. The maximum distance is one hundred meters. 】
This thing looked familiar to him. After thinking about it for a moment, he immediately recalled that the mysterious weapon surrounding the Blood Emperor seemed to be this thing.
Sure enough, Zhang Yang explained: "This is what the Blood Emperor asked someone to send back. He said that if you decide to enter the other side of the door, I will lend you this thing temporarily to save your life."
Mu You nodded without being pretentious and accepted the box. He had seen the Blood Emperor's battle with his own eyes. This thing was as useful as a flying sword and could also suck blood. With this thing close by, he would be safe. The coefficient will indeed be greatly improved.
"and this."
Zhang Yang then took out another card. On the card was a familiar rune, which was exactly the same as the teleportation rune engraved on the back of his hand.
"This is a teleportation mark. After you go to the door, activate the mark near the door, so that if you die, you can be resurrected immediately at the door, and then you can come back directly through the door." Zhang Yang said.
"Does this thing... cost money?" Mu You asked. He remembered that the price of this thing was 50 years.
"Of course not."
Zhang Yang said with a smile: "Everyone who decides to participate in this operation will be given one for free. You elite players are precious to the country, and the death of one of them is a huge loss. Of course, we must do a good job in protecting you."
Mu You nodded and accepted the card, but had no intention of using it. He had already activated this thing, and using it again would cover the resurrection point of the cabin.
