In fact, Zhang Xiaoman also understands that the combat effectiveness of monsters cannot be judged solely by the points they are worth, and when he deals with them, the battle situation will also be affected depending on the method.
For example, in today's battle, the two star guards together could have matched a werewolf monster "Terrorclaw" with 15 points, but they suffered a loss from a mineral spirit with 6 points. This does not mean that the star guard is not strong, it is just that he was restrained.
This kind of mineral essence can bite through the extremely hard Olhast Rock, but its own violent spirit technique can only leave a white mark on it, but at the same time it can kill monsters instantly. This is actually able to Explains the problem very well.
Real-life battles are different from those in games. You don't win by combining attributes. In many cases, you still need to match the correct attack method.
Arriving in front of the last corpse of the ore spirit that had been chopped into several pieces, Zhang Xiaoman was about to activate his Starry Eyes ability when he suddenly saw the circle of fine teeth on the monster's head, and it popped into his mind unconsciously. Got an idea.
"Since this guy can easily bite Olhast Rock, then its teeth must themselves be very hard, right? Can I collect them and use them as forging materials in the future? ?”
Once this idea comes up, it becomes more and more difficult to put it away. Zhang Xiaoman has even thought of the monsters he killed before. Do they also have many strange things? If he just absorbs the corpses directly, that is not Is it particularly wasteful?
But then he looked down at the monster's head lying on the ground, and then at the ring of teeth in its mouth. Zhang Xiaoman felt that he really didn't want to touch that thing, it was too disgusting.
"Why don't we just forget it for today? This thing is too ugly. Next time we'll find something less disgusting to deal with..." He retreated in his mind.
"No, these monsters are all the same. Although this material is inconspicuous, it might be useful in the future? Maybe one day I will draw a powerful skill and spell, and it will be used as a casting material. Wouldn’t it be regrettable to death if you don’t have it by then…”
Zhang Xiaoman had a battle between heaven and man in his heart, and then finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
He got up and ran quickly outside the cave. After calling for the anti-gravity vehicle, he opened the door and found an empty mineral water bottle inside, intending to use it as a container to hold his teeth.
Back in the cave, Zhang Xiaoman threw the empty bottle directly in front of the star guard with a clang, and at the same time gave him instructions to collect the monster's teeth.
Just kidding, how could you do such a disgusting thing yourself? There are two ready-made tool men around here, so of course let them do it.
The two star guards immediately began the task of extracting the teeth conscientiously and without any complaints. The look of them squatting on the ground and tinkering hard seemed a bit funny.
After a while, the Star Guards had completed their master's instructions. They carefully pulled out all the Miner's teeth, and even the two young teeth that had not yet grown out did not escape their vicious hands. And what Xingwei does is to make people feel at ease. They say they are collecting teeth, but they are really just teeth, and not a trace of flesh or blood is stuck on them. Good reviews!
Zhang Xiaoman shook the bottle twice and roughly estimated the number of teeth in it. He estimated that there were more than a hundred, which was much more than he imagined.
Stretching out his hand to absorb the remaining monster corpses, Zhang Xiaoman gained a total of 5 points. It seemed that after taking away its teeth, the number of points was indeed reduced, but overall it was still acceptable.
"A total of 18 points were obtained from killing monsters this time, minus the 10 points used to exchange for four-leaf flowers, which is equivalent to earning 8 points..." Zhang Xiaoman calculated the harvest this time and said secretly, "But These 8 points are purely earned. The purpose of my visit this time is for the Olhast Rock Mine. I have achieved my goal and earned an extra wave of points, so I won’t lose anything.”
As he spoke, he looked at the mineral water bottle in his hand and added: "Of course, there is also a bottle of teeth..."
…
An hour later, Longmian Mountain Wolong Peak.
This is the main peak of Longmian Mountain. Most of the buildings in the sect are located here. On weekdays, almost everyone in the mountain conducts their daily life here.
In a small room in Wolong Peak, Zhang Xiaoman was eating the meal prepared by Mr. Ye Cang. He had been busy all morning and had not eaten anything. He was already very hungry.
Opposite Zhang Xiaoman, Ye Cang was also holding a small bowl and eating bite after bite, but compared to the former's devouring, his eating appearance was much better.
"Old man, according to what you said, Ye Fei is the only one in your Ye family now?" Zhang Xiaoman asked while eating.
In the short time just now, he had learned some information about Longmian Mountain from Ye Cang.
In fact, the practice in Longmian Mountain does not prohibit marriage, and it is not forbidden to eat meat and vegetables. There are no strict rules. What they seek is a natural way, which can actually be seen from the clothes of the disciples of the sect.
Starting from the old man, his son Ye Fan passed away due to illness in his seventies. The eldest grandson Ye Kong passed away in a plane crash a few years ago, the second grandson Ye Mo also gave birth to a girl, and the younger grandson Ye Yunxiu devoted himself to practicing Taoism and is still unmarried. Therefore, in the huge Ye family, only Ye Fei is the only male member of the younger generation.
The old man's thoughts are actually a bit conservative. It's not that he favors sons over daughters. Zhang Xiaoman can tell from his words that he still loves his great-granddaughters very much. However, due to the family tradition, the Ye family's incense A boy is still needed to inherit.
That's why Ye Cang was so grateful to Zhang Xiaoman after what happened today. This not only saved his grandson's life, but also saved his Ye family's incense.
Ye Cang put down the bowl and chopsticks he had finished eating, smiled bitterly, and said, "To be honest with you, although Longmian Mountain has been passed down for thousands of years, it has gradually begun to decline."
"Today is no longer the era when Taoism was popular. Many disciples who come here to practice are arranged by their elders to hone their minds. Even the younger generation of our Ye family have no intention of practicing Taoism. I'm afraid it won't take long. This place will be like some other secular sects of cultivation..."
Zhang Xiaoman was so helpless after hearing what he said and didn't know how to respond, so he simply continued to listen.
"But fortunately, I met you today, and thanks to you telling me so many secrets, it is a once-in-a-century opportunity for Ye to join the Star Alliance. I also have some accumulated assets. If you need it, just take it. Just use it.”
Zhang Xiaoman shook his head speechlessly after hearing this, and said: "I understand Mr. Ye's intentions, but the Star Alliance is not going to expropriate anyone's property. You have already solved the problem of the Dragon Sleeping Stone for me, and you have made such a contribution. Now, I believe others won’t say anything more.”
As he said this, he suddenly thought of another thing, and then asked: "By the way, I heard that you have great medical skills, old man, so you should have some knowledge about some medicinal materials, right? I need to use them to prepare the spiritual formation here. There are many herbs, I wonder if you can help collect them? Of course, I will give you the funds to purchase them..."
