Chapter 22 Origin: Taunt
The consciousness bypassed the golden crystal, followed the guidance, and swept through every corner of the fifth floor of the dark cave.
In addition to the body of the ice blade and the black armored soldiers who followed him and died in battle, Qi Sheng also discovered a deeply dug grave in the corner of the hall, with a large number of corpses buried in it.
[The owners of these corpses should be members of the Bingren tribe. After hiding underground, they were eventually buried underground due to lack of food and other resources. 】
"Where are the cave tribes? What are their origins?"
[It should be underground life controlled by the Ice Blade clansmen through some means. They can survive by swallowing ores and don't have to worry about food shortages. After the Ice Blade clan members die, they still command according to the orders implanted in their minds when they were controlled. The Iron-shelled Insect excavates the underground spiritual ore, puts it into the smelting furnace, and continues to charge the golden crystal. 】
The analysis of the guidance seems very reasonable to Qi Sheng.
His consciousness swept to the back of the hall, where a fist-sized light blue crystal was suspended, with pitch black hyphae covering the surface, and next to it was a meat ball beating like a heart.
"Is this a domain node?"
[Yes, you can understand it as a core puzzle piece of the monster world. It is the countless core puzzle pieces that constitute the main framework of the monster world. 】
While guiding and explaining, the analyzed information was fed back to Qi Sheng's mind.
【Domain Node: Dark Cave】
Territory type: Resources
Territory characteristics: spiritual proliferation
Feature introduction: Continuously enlighten spiritual mineral resources.
Domain Status: Black Tide Energy Corrosion (Unoccupied)
……
After reading the analysis information, Qi Sheng's eyes turned to the pitch-black flesh ball beating next to the crystal.
This is the core of corrosion.
If you want to seize this domain node, you must purify the node crystal and completely remove the roots of corrosion.
But it's not easy to do this.
Just now, the guide analyzed and inspected the black-armored soldiers standing inside and outside the palace, and found that the remains of these dead soldiers had also been corroded and turned into evil beings similar to cursed soldiers.
And the curse hunting level here generally reaches 25+.
Fortunately, the remains of the Ice Blade were not controlled by the corrosive power of the Black Tide.
To be more precise, the remaining body of the Ice Blade has been exhausted from the battle, leaving only an empty shell. The corrosive power of the black tide cannot drive the hollow body.
Even if it is thrown into the altar for refining, the sacrificial power cannot be refined.
If the ice blade is in its full glory, its hunting level may be over 500, and it has the power to move mountains and seas, and players will not be able to compete with it.
……
After investigating the information on the five underground floors of the dark cave, Qi Sheng's consciousness followed the guidance and returned to Dizhong Village.
As for the energy crystals left by Bingren to the new Emperor Zhao, he had no intention of setting out to get them.
It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I don’t have the start-up capital.
There are two exploration modes for him and the player to leave the Imperial Tomb Village. Players can play for free + in-app purchase modes such as the mall, star pulse, and body forging.
And after he goes out, he has to turn on the card-burning mode.
When the four major servants poured their remaining sacrificial power into the Imperial Tomb Village, the sacrificial power at their disposal reached more than 80 million, which could support him to cover up his aura and explore outside in the body of the Imperial Omen without fear of being discovered by evil spirits.
It was also at that time that he took in the eagle-headed demon, the black-armored snake, and the gargoyle.
But now the sacrificial power in hand is only five digits. The sacrificial power required to cover up the original aura of Emperor Zhaoguo is calculated by the second. More than 1,000 sacrificial power is consumed every second, and the inventory cannot withstand the consumption.
The task of occupying domain nodes can only be given to players.
Although this investigation has yielded no real results, Qi Sheng already has expectations.
The energy storage crystals left behind by the ice blade can extract more than 10 million points of sacrificial power at least, which is enough to recruit 10,000 players and can greatly speed up the early development.
Qi Sheng, who was sitting cross-legged on the altar, closed his eyes at this moment. After switching to the Emperor's Omen form, his vision jumped to the player's perspective. ……
Dark cave.
After another round of fierce fighting, players began to clean up the battlefield.
They picked up the loot on the ground, then invoked the sacrifice mode on the functional side, and threw all the carapace into the altar to refine it into sacrificial power.
After these days of fighting, players have become familiar with the fighting rhythm of the Iron Shell Insect.
There are two attack methods for the Iron-shelled Insect. One is to spin silk to wrap around the target, and then drag it in front of it and tear the target apart with its sickle-shaped mandibles.
The silk spinning interval is the best time to launch an offensive.
After many battles, players who are familiar with the rhythm can flexibly dodge and spin silk.
The only thing that gives players a headache is that the terrain in the cave is narrow. When encountering a swarm of iron-shelled insects, skills can only improve combat effectiveness to a limited extent. The only way to win is to charge fiercely.
The end of each battle is the happiest harvest time for players.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The increase in physical fitness brought by level up, the sacrifice power gain brought by sacrificing loot, and the joy of victory after uniting and cooperating... these are all part of the happiness.
After clearing the battlefield, the remaining players continued to explore downward along the cave tunnel and entered the second underground space.
The space on the second floor is relatively wide, and you can see a large number of rock walls that have been hollowed out by mining.
The amazing thing is that the rock wall is covered with a layer of light green crystal. After focusing, the analytical information emerges:
[Gathering Spirits: Gathering the energy of heaven and earth, and continuously nurturing the spirit mine... 】
Realizing that the spiritual ore in this cave is a renewable resource, the player did not have much emotional fluctuations and continued to follow the team to explore down the cave.
After killing several more Iron-shelled Insects along the way, they came to a stop in front of a stone cave that was obviously dug out.
A dull roar could be clearly heard coming from the cave.
Li Zheng from the Gandi Regiment took the first step and threw the torch in his hand into the cave.
The torch traced a trajectory in the air and then landed in the cave. It rolled several times and illuminated the internal environment.
I saw eight chains nailed to the rock wall at the end of the cave, with a huge monster imprisoned at the end.
Its shape is like a beetle, its body is covered with layers of white scales, and intricate patterns are put together. At first glance, it looks like a grimace, with a pair of huge pincers that are constantly dancing, and exposed red eyes. It looks like two burning lanterns in the dim environment.
This monster has been imprisoned for who knows how many years, but it is still alive.
【Taunt (The Second Generation of Origin)】
Hunting Level: 29
Guidance analysis: The special monster that controls the original power of "taunt" has the ability to weave mental illusions, causing targets within the coverage of the ability to fall into an extremely crazy state, and launch attacks on taunts without control.
Tip: When hit by the taunting ability, the target will use its own memory as the basis for adapting the plot through a large number of memories in a short period of time. The caster (taunting) will become a part of the adapted memory and become a target of hatred.
……
After reading the monster analysis information, the most excited person at the scene was the player who chose Gargoyle.
Marbles: Hahaha, the perfect option for the Gargoyle's second life soul. It taunts to draw hatred and then turns on the petrification ability to resist damage. It is simply more perfect than the style of Eagle-headed Demon + Bone Fire. I already have a premonition that the Gargoyle is about to rise.
Is this a beaver? The spring for gargoyle players has arrived suddenly, with taunt + petrification, the strongest defensive style in the version released.
Squad leader: Although the petrification skill can greatly improve the ability to bear damage in a short period of time, its shortcoming is also very fatal. It cannot move after it is activated. Now with the added taunt skill, it is simply invincible. If you add the ability to withstand damage and rebound damage, This genre makes me feel happy just thinking about it.
There was a heated discussion about the ability and characteristics of "Taunt" in the regional voice channel.
Whether it is the eagle-headed demon or the black-armored snake, at this stage, they already have suitable second life soul options, except for the gargoyle.
The second generation of original monsters imprisoned in the cave gave these gargoyle players hope of rising.
"Kill!"
Someone shouted, and the players immediately rushed towards the taunt.
