Chapter 25 Battle Mode
"Lu Yao, Lu Yao?"
Sister Peng reminded: "Give me a copy of this month's report. I'm urging you over there."
"Ah, right away."
Lu Yao passed the report over and pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling a little tired.
"You look very tired recently." Sister Peng joked while printing the materials: "What's wrong? Are you working on a side job after get off work? Or did you go out to get high at night?"
Lu Yao could only vaguely say that he didn't sleep well.
…
Recently, it is a critical period for the development of Garlic Tribe. Lu Yao has been staring at the screen, not daring to relax.
Taking the initiative to destroy the mountain passage and cutting off trade with the Yanchi Tribe, the Garlic Tribe needed another passage to contact the outside world.
Theoretically there are three ways.
Go north through the forest and into the northern world.
Head east across the East River and all the way into the East China Sea.
Head south into the desert and reopen the oasis.
Of the three routes, the forest road is the most dangerous. These are also Isabel's original words.
"Sir, there are forest elemental creatures deep in the forest. Their number is unknown, and some of them are very aggressive. Even if a path can be opened, elemental creatures may harass you at any time, and there will be hidden dangers."
To start water trade and navigation to the east, better shipbuilding skills need to be developed. Canoes can be used for fishing and water movement, but they cannot support long-distance navigation. Building bigger and stronger ships takes time.
Relatively speaking, the desert is the best choice.
The Bedou tribe has lived in the desert for many years and knows this environment very well. The dangers in the desert are sandstorms and harsh weather, as well as desert monsters and bandits.
Among the many dangers, desert monsters are the biggest threat.
The so-called desert monster is a giant bug called a "sandworm".
It lives underground in the desert. It is as big as a giant earthworm. Its skin is rough and tough and is yellow-brown. Stones and wood cannot harm it at all. Sandworms hunt camels and also devour and digest various hard stones. They are giants in the desert and are an irresistible natural disaster to the Bedou tribe.
The most important thing is what Isabel said to Lu Yao.
"When I was looking for the Bedou tribe, I killed a bug."
Lu Yao was immediately alert.
——Can you deal with those bugs?
"Sir, do you want to kill them all?"
Lu Yao realized there was something going on as soon as he heard it.
——Hunting sandworms is the second priority. The primary purpose is to recapture the oasis and open the passage from the desert to the outside world. Of course, it is best to minimize the number of sandworms.
"Yes, sir."
——Do you need support?
"Sir, the treasure you gave me is enough. These bugs are not difficult to deal with."
——Okay, let’s set off immediately.
…
After returning home from get off work, Lu Yao sat impatiently in front of the computer and locked his perspective on the desert area.
The desert has been expanded into large new areas, and Isabel found the occupied oasis. Surrounding her were a pile of yellow-brown corpses of long worms. Only their upper bodies were exposed in the desert, and they looked like giant fingers protruding from the ground.
[In battle] is displayed above Isabel's head.
Lu Yao clicked on the apostle continuously, and a detailed battle screen immediately popped up, and the originally relaxing electronic music turned into a fast-paced and exciting style.
Isabel in black faced a group of brown insect monsters, but only two of the enemies were still alive. Both the enemy and the enemy have their own health bars displayed above their heads.
[Isabel LV15] VS [Sandworm LV10] [Sandworm LV11].
The battle presents a real-time auto-chess mode.
Isabel held a green lightsaber and stabbed two sandworms continuously. Green light balls flew out from the lightsaber one after another, carrying out tracking bombing on the sandworms.
Lu Yao thought of the description of the Forest Sword's ability.
Forest Sword Lv1: [Isabel's exclusive ability] Isabel summons the Holy Sword, which comprehensively increases combat attributes. The duration and increase depend on the ability level and mana.
This green lightsaber should be the holy sword.
This was the first time that Lu Yao saw Isabel in serious fighting mode. When dealing with barbarian heroes before, Isabel could kill them with just a steel pipe, without having to use her abilities at all.
It can be seen that sandworms are much stronger than barbarian heroes.
Sandworms are somewhat like gophers, able to burrow into the sand and emerge from unexpected directions. Their attack method is to spit out a black venom that can be sprayed over a long distance.
It's just that Isabel's movement and attack speed are too fast. In front of her, the sandworm attack falls on her and displays a long series of Miss. As for Isabel's holy sword stabbing and green light bombing, the sandworm could not avoid it at all.
The health bar on the top of the sandworm's head is falling rapidly, and the one with a lower level has been emptied of its health bar, with a [death] sign displayed above its head.
Lu Yao moved the mouse to the living sandworm.
…
【Sandworm LV11】
HP: 101/220
Mana: 16/44
Damage: 8
Defense: 8
Speed: 5
【Evasion Lv5】
Can avoid damage caused by some attacks. Compared with his own weak life, this probability is higher.
[Poisoned LV5]
Attacks will poison the enemy, causing damage over time.
…
It turns out there is detailed combat data.
Lu Yao moved the mouse back to Isabel's head.
…
[Apostle Lv15] Forest Sword·Isabel
HP: 220/224
Mana: 271/385
Damage: 27
Defense: 25
Speed: 15
[Wisdom Lv15]
Wisdom is the key for the Apostle to listen to the will of God. The higher the level of wisdom, the easier it is to improve and comprehend various abilities.
[Death Prayer Lv5] (15 mana)
Pray to the Sea of Death to temporarily awaken the sleeping dead and obtain their help. The type of dead depends on the ability level and mana.
[Forest Sword Lv1] (100 mana)
[Isabel's exclusive ability] Isabel summons the holy sword to fully amplify combat attributes. The duration and amplification depend on the ability level and mana. After the battle, Isabel will create some forest elemental creatures. The number and type depend on the ability level and the strength of the combat object.
…
Lu Yao observed for a while and roughly understood the combat mechanism of the simulator.
The simulator simplifies the battle and turns it into a way to visualize the numerical values and abilities.
Isabel's speed is three times that of the sandworm, so the sandworm attack has always failed to hit. But under Isabel's attack, the number -19 kept appearing on the sandworm.
Lu Yao calculated that Isabel's damage was 27 and the sandworm's defense was 8, which was exactly 19 points. If there is no special ability and equipment, as long as the attack can hit, the direct damage caused is the difference between the damage and defense.
In actual combat, the basic numerical difference between the two sides is too large, and there is no restraint ability, so the battle scene is one-sided.
Just like the sandworm facing Isabel.
Even if the sandworm's attack hits, it can't break the defense, and the result is already determined.
As the blood bar of the last sandworm is emptied, the prompt [Battle End] appears on the screen.
At this time, Isabel inserted the holy sword into the ground.
A ray of green light emerged from the bodies of many sandworms, and these green lights all drilled into the holy sword, gradually twisting, forming two furry reddish-brown creatures, their levels and types are exactly the same.
…
[Striped Lynx LV10][Isabel's Creation]
HP: 182/182
Mana: 55/55
Damage: 9
Defense: 4
Speed: 9
[Quick Strike]
Can attack more frequently.
[Stealth]
If you are not discovered while stealthed, the first attack on a creature will definitely produce a [bleeding] effect, which will continue to reduce the opponent's HP.
[Forest Element LV1]
Forest element creatures are beneficial to the rapid growth of the forest, and all attributes are increased in the forest. The effect depends on the ability level and HP.
…
Lu Yao was excited.
The Forest Sword was finally launched successfully once!
From the ability and attributes, the striped lynx is obviously an assassin, good at ambushing and sneaking, with high damage and fast speed. The level is also pretty good.
"My Lord, I have a request."
Isabel said: "They are too weak, and they are useless to me, but they can protect the people of the Garlic Tribe in the forest."
"Can you send all the weak elemental creatures you created back to the forest first and let them continue to grow. When they accumulate more in number, they can be used when they grow up."
Lu Yao thought it was feasible.
Gathering troops in one wave is also a classic tactic.
