"Fortunately, I didn't kill him directly."
If we kill them directly, we really won't be able to get the moon lantern.
Lu Cang gently patted Beiya beside him.
Of course, Beja didn't actually have any form, and she also took the invisibility potion.
Now she is completely transparent in Lu Cang's eyes.
However, Lu Cang could still know where his followers were by relying on his lord's perception.
Beja understood.
At the moment when the moon lantern completely fell into the hands of the mind flayer.
boom!
An ice pick flew by.
The head of the Mind Flayer disappeared instantly.
The other mind flayers didn't even have time to react.
Puff puff puff——
In just a moment, the ice pick penetrated their heads instantly, and Beja had already solved them in just a moment.
When this was done, Beja revealed herself to the slick corpses of the mind flayers.
Lu Cang and Axiburn arrived later.
Lu Cang picked up a moon lantern.
----------------------------------------
【Moon Lantern】
[Effect: Illuminating the dark mist of the source world and driving away all creatures in the black mist]
[Light range: 50 meters]
[The holder can obtain dark vision and can see clearly the unilluminated black fog]
----------------------------------------
This should mean that within the light range, creatures in the dark fog cannot approach.
At the same time, he can also gain vision and be able to see clearly in the dark.
It doesn't mean that you can only see as far as the light range is.
In fact, as long as you hold this lantern, you can see clearly all the darkness.
"With this, it's possible to operate at night."
"Beja, capture the village."
After receiving Lu Cang's order, Beiya came to the village's totem and placed her hands on the totem.
[You have occupied the monster lair - the fishman village]
[You have obtained the unit type: Murloc]
Wow wow wow wow——
Jiwajiwa~
Along with a group of strange screams, 50 fishmen emerged from the earth.
They held stone spears and daggers in their hands.
His eyes were bulging, and he looked like he wasn't very smart.
----------------------------------------
[Murloc Hunter (Level: 9)]
[Rank: Elite]
[Health value: 500]
[Strength: 80, Spirit: 40, Agility: 90, Constitution: 50]
----------------------------------------
"Build a teleportation array."
After Lu Cang gave the order, several fishmen immediately went to the designated location and started building the teleportation array.
On the sidelines, Ahiburn groped for the body.
"Lord Lu Cang."
"This mind flayer leader has a map on his body."
Lu Cang took the map from Ahiburn's hand.
The map is a bit slimy.
The corners of Lu Cang's mouth twitched.
While this slime isn't toxic, it's... a little gross.
Immediately, Lu Cang put the map into his backpack.
He found a piece of paper from his backpack and wiped his hands.
Uh-huh!
Take out the map in a moment.
A clean map appeared in Lu Cang's hands.
This is a map of the illuminated forest.
The map is much more detailed than the map published on the community.
Among them, some positions are marked with "×", some positions are marked with "O", and some positions are marked with "△"
"My current position is at the cross."
"Does this mean where to place the moon lantern?"
"The place where the circle is made is the altar?"
"No... there's also the triangle symbol..."
Lu Cang remembered the scene of interrogating the mind flayer before.
"Forget it, you can't make random guesses on your own."
"Beja, wake them up and ask some questions."
"Ashborn, go to other mines and occupy them yourself, and you have to be fast."
After receiving Lu Cang's order, Ashborn immediately took off and continued flying towards the next destination.
Beja, on the other hand, raised her hand to activate Conversation with the Dead and awaken all these mind flayers.
The interrogation begins.
In about 10 minutes.
Two prompts pop up one after another.
[Source Crystal Mine (medium size) has been occupied]
[Source Crystal Mine (medium size) has been occupied]
In just ten minutes, Ashborn completed the occupation of two medium-sized source crystal mines.
At this time, the interrogation was completely over.
This mind flayer leader obviously has more information than the mind flayers he encountered before.
Lu Cang rubbed his eyebrows and summarized the information he just learned.
"The will of the world is still at work, restricting more powerful beings from coming..."
"So the most powerful existence coming to the land of life now is level 90."
"This group of creatures is just a vanguard. Its main purpose is to suppress the development of the lord, further undermine the will of the world, and allow the main force behind to come."
"Tsk, aren't these the main force?"
The circled position is where the altar will be built.
The altar has two functions. One is for spiritual pollution and controlling creatures within a certain range.
The other is used to weaken the will of the world.
The location marked with a triangle symbol indicates the location of the indigenous people who need attention.
Lu Cang asked for a list from this mind flayer...
The name of the elf I just met is also on this list.
【Elaine】
The existences on the list are strong ones that must be paid attention to. If you can kill them, you must kill them first. If you can't kill them, you must try your best to limit them.
When the protection of the world's will ends, they will launch a general attack and directly capture all the cities.
"Not only the lord, but also the town is protected."
"In other words, there will be no trouble in places like cities for the time being, and the power of the indigenous people should be able to be mobilized."
"Speaking of which, Elaine should have noticed this change."
"I have to write a letter and ask."
----------------------------------------
【Infinite Land - Corridor of the End】
At the headquarters of [Terminal], a secretary with black hair and black frames chased a tall figure in front of him.
"Luo Xian, where are you going? There will be a combat meeting later."
"Where to go? To the source world, to save my students."
"Luo Xian, the Lord of Death has issued an order, and you all need to be on standby in the Infinite Land."
"The lords on the other side of the source world will launch a rescue operation."
Luo Xian turned around suddenly, his eyes revealing uncontrollable anger.
"Do you really think the lord of the source world can rescue them?"
"I can't guarantee this, but all we have to do is believe." The secretary avoided looking at Luo Xian.
Luo Xian glanced at her coldly, then turned around and continued walking forward.
"Luo Xian! Stop!"
"You are one of the Three Sages of the End. This meeting cannot be held without you!"
"They are indeed your students, but you only took them for twelve years. Are these twelve years more important than your hundreds of years as a lord? Are they more important than the entire journey?"
"The divine disaster has occurred, and necessary sacrifices are inevitable!"
"Besides, what can you change if you go alone? Can you fight against the entire divine disaster on your own? God's descent is a disaster that even our eight major alliances must deal with seriously. What can you do if you go alone? !”
Luo Xian stopped and looked back again.
He was about to say something, but suddenly sighed.
"That's right. No matter how much I tell you, you still won't be able to understand."
"Everyone has his or her own reasons for making choices. Even if I tell you, you still can't understand my feelings from my perspective."
"Your job is to stop it, right?"
"Then you've done your duty."
call--
Behind Luo Xian, a black shadow gradually appeared.
It held a long-handled scimitar in its hand. The sickle blade of the scimitar was blood red, revealing a strange bloody aura.
Seeing this shadow, the secretary gulped.
Not hungry, but scared.
It is a fear from the soul, a fear from death.
She seemed to see a red line appearing on the ground. As long as she took another step forward and touched that line, she would die.
There was no way she could go any further.
"I want to leave on my own, no one can blame you."
"Besides, if you really want to stop me, I won't send you alone." After that, Luo Xian turned and left, leaving only the secretary where he was.
The secretary's legs couldn't stop shaking.
It wasn't until Luo Xian walked away and the black shadow behind him disappeared that her body softened and she collapsed on the ground.
In the distance, Luo Xian's last response came: "My students have not experienced a wonderful life and should not die like this."
----------------------------------------
[Source Realm—The Place of Living]
At the table in the Fishman Village, Lu Cang stopped writing and finished a letter.
After being signed, the letter turned into a point of light and disappeared.
It should have been passed to Elaine.
[Murloc Village—The teleportation array has been built]
[Murloc Village—The Death Spire has been built]
[Murloc Village—The Death Spire has been built]
[Murloc Village—The Death Spire has been built]
…
Rumble, rumble, rumble——
Along with the teleportation array, there are also defensive buildings.
High black towers rise from the ground.
50 [Death Spires] were built by Lu Cang, completely covering all four directions of the fishman village.
Seeing the image of this spire, Lu Cang couldn't help but recall a work called "Code Number Baby" that he had seen in his previous life.
This tower is similar to the Tower of Darkness inside.
----------------------------------------
[Death Spire - Charge energy at the top of the tower for one second, and then continuously emit death rays, causing 400 points of death damage per second (can attack up to 5 units at the same time)]
[Characteristics: Death transmission - If there are other Death Spires within the range, they will be connected. If there are Death Spires within the range of the connected Death Spire, the connection can continue. For each Death Spire connected, the damage and damage will be increased by 10%. 2% range range. (Maximum 500% (damage)/100% (range))]
[Range: 500 meters]
[Energy consumption: 1 source crystal/minute]
----------------------------------------
This is the second-level defense tower of the death system.
The cost is relatively high, requiring 2,000 stones and 2,000 source crystals to build one, and the manufacturing time takes 1 hour.
Of course, that comes with a hefty price tag.
Its defensive capabilities are also top-notch.
With 400 points of death damage per second, even if a level 15 Golden Owl Bear comes, it won't be able to sustain it for a minute.
The defensive buildings in the territory are actually very lethal.
After all, there is no way to move out of the territory, no room to grow, the range is limited, and the cost is high.
On the contrary, Death Spire is destined to be very useful. In this world, cost and power are almost equal.
And due to the characteristics of the Death Spire, the more towers are built, the stronger they become.
It's just that in the early stage, few lords had the luxury to build 50 death towers at once.
This is one hundred thousand stones and one hundred thousand source crystals!
Normally, the defenses are enough, there is no need to build too many. After all, under normal circumstances, no one would come to attack your territory every day.
Building troops and developing them is more important than building defense towers.
After upgrading, there will be better defense towers to choose from.
"Well... Fishman Village should be considered safe now."
The 50 death spiers are connected to each other by thin lines that emit black waves. The thin lines connect the death spiers to each other.
Fifty death spiers were completely connected, surrounding the fishman village into a square.
The calculation method of this dead connection is transfer calculation.
As long as there are other Death Spires within the range of the connected Death Spire, you can continue to connect.
Now, the Death Spire has directly received a 500% damage increase. Each Death Spire can cause 2,400 points of damage in one second.
Even the range has been directly expanded to a radius of one kilometer.
Zhi!
The Death Spire has just been built!
It was five black death rays shot out! Directly towards the brain-eating crawler that was swinging a few hundred meters away.
Zila~
-2387
-2391
-2385
-2390
-2359
The moment the five black rays hit them, they disintegrated into a puddle of ashes.
Only a small treasure chest is left next to it.
It's obvious that they don't have much resistance to death damage.
Inferior monsters will not have more than 2,000 HP even at level 30.
But also because of this attack.
Those brain-eating crawlers that had no intention of attacking the fish-man village actually turned their bodies towards the fish-man village.
Seeing their companions die seemed to stimulate them.
But the Death Spire wouldn't care so much. Lu Cang's order was to fire indefinitely and never stop until all the enemies within the range were dead.
Zi~Zi ZiZiZi~Bang!
-2387
-2391
-2385
-2390
-2359
-2387
…
Another wave of attacks!
This time, fifty death spiers emitted black rays at the same time!
In an instant, more than two hundred brain-eating crawlers were reduced to ashes, and more than 200 level 30 treasure chests exploded at the same time.
This time, these brainless brains finally went completely crazy!
Countless brain-eating crawlers were stimulated and rushed here one after another!
