Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

The obstacle that hinders Zong Shen from exploring the mine is those spider web monsters.

The two areas leading to the depths of the mine are blocked by rune gates on one side and occupied by a group of spider web monsters on the other. If you want to continue exploring, you must kill those spider web monsters.

Zong Shen's strength was not enough to eliminate them all before.

But things were different now. Zong Shen not only had enough troops, but also obtained many targeted weapons from goblin merchants.

He has already prepared all the useful props in the storage compartment.

Start mobilizing troops and generals to decide the lineup for this expedition!

"Colby, lead the first team of Wolf Riders to follow me. The second team will patrol the territory, and the rest will go to the front line to make up for the defense."

"Four dragon-turned-gun-and-shield warriors and two goblin tearers also followed me, forming a melee formation with the wolf cavalry."

"Luna, Milani, Tasia, Aysia, Farvid, Madeleine, and Mapel, you will act with the team as the medium and long-range output force."

This time Zong Shen brought a lineup of twenty-five people, which can be said to be a strong force, both near and far.

"Carlos, Pierce, you drive the Tearer mecha onto the back cabin of the Heavy Bearer. We will drive the Heavy Bearer over there this time."

Zong Shen gave instructions to the two goblin pilots again.

Each person was given dozens of primary magic energy crystals.

Two more loader mechas were taken out from the open space.

The two goblin pilots took the order and first controlled the tall Ripper mecha onto the large cargo compartment of the loader. Then they nimbly jumped off the mecha and rolled into the cab of the loader.

All the soldiers except Wolf Cavalry and Luna sat in the cargo compartment of the Heavy Bearer.

Although the Burden Mecha is classified as a type of magic mecha, it actually looks like a tracked armed truck.

Generally speaking, it is much more convenient than riding a horse, but the speed is also much slower than that of a prairie horse.

However, the speed of thirty kilometers per hour was enough for them to avoid the group of cave monsters.

The key point is that it is very convenient. With so many people, only two loaders can handle it all!

Even Zong Shen himself doesn't plan to ride Bajie, as the mine is not suitable for Bajie's performance.

With such a complete combination of soldiers and those props, it is more than enough to deal with the spider web monster.

But before setting off, Zong Shen still had something to deal with.

That is to add some points to yourself!

He is already level 18 and has 3 attribute points and skill points at his disposal.

He added all three attribute points to strength, making his strength value 41 points.

One more point and you can use that dragon-slaying heavy sword!

The skill points are also simple and crude. I directly add 3 points of [Strong Attack] to upgrade it to level 9!

If holding a guard sword and a silver shield, Zong Shen's slashing damage can reach 92 points.

If the sword and shield are put away and a broad-bladed sword is held in both hands, the slashing damage can reach 109 points.

The powerful attack power is not inferior to that of ordinary leader-level monsters.

Putting aside the soldiers under his command, Zong Shen himself can be considered a very powerful combat force.

After he finished adding points to himself, he lightly jumped up and jumped into the cargo compartment of the loader mecha behind him.

Because Asia and the others are all in the same car...

"Colby, your Wolf Cavalry team is clearing the way ahead and guiding the direction for the loader mecha!"

"Let's go now!"

"At the speed of the loader mecha, it will probably take about two hours to arrive!"

Zong Shen issued the order to set off.

Two loader mechas were launched.

The magic energy core transmitted the surging power to the track wheels and began to move forward slowly.

Colby led a group of wolf cavalry in front and maintained a constant speed to lead the way from behind.

Luna, the Huntress of the Night, followed behind on a large panther.

The two loader mechas carried the people and continued to speed up, gradually accelerating to its top speed.

The wide tracks allow it to smoothly pass through the ups and downs of the terrain, but the load-bearer is, after all, a transport-type auxiliary magic mecha, not a manned mecha, so there is no chance of it sitting in its cargo compartment. How comfortable.

Along the way, whenever they encounter a group of monsters less than a hundred in size, they will choose to rush directly into them.

First, the wolf cavalry performs a round of charging and strangulation, and then Luna walks aside and throws the moon blade.

In the end, two loader mechas brutally crushed them, basically without stopping, they were able to kill all the monsters.

Facing the collision and crushing of the loader mecha, the zombies and worms were unable to resist.

It took them about two and a half hours to reach the outside of the mine ruins.

There are only a few cave monsters wandering around here, and there doesn't seem to be any big changes after two days.

The crawler chassis of the loader mecha has extremely good traversability, and even prairie horses are not suitable for entering the ruins.

But they can climb up hard and drive all the way to the entrance of the mine.

Wolf Cavalry and Luna arrived at the cave entrance earlier.

There are no traces of fighting anywhere. It seems that the Goblin tribe has not gathered people to find a place in the mine. Last time, the Goblin tribe lost two teams in the mine. According to the rules of those little green-skinned enemies, they will definitely take revenge. Logically speaking, his personality would not let go of the spider web monster so easily.

No matter what, more Goblin warriors should be sent to restore the situation, but now the mine seems to be still calm, and there are no traces of fighting inside or outside the mine.

But that's fine, Zong Shen can concentrate on killing all those spider web monsters!

Returning to the mine again, Zong Shen's strength this time was completely different from the last time!

Everyone got out of the loader's cargo compartment, and Zong Shen put the two loader mechas into the storage compartments with one move.

Zong Shen took out three magic energy flashlights, placed 3 primary magic energy crystals into each one, and charged 300 points of magic energy.

The appearance of the magic flashlight is similar to that of an ordinary portable flashlight.

At the front is a round piece of glass, and the inner light frame also has crystal slices that reflect light.

The luminous source is a magic energy crystal piece, which will emit light after being filled with magic energy.

Zong Shen turned on the brightness, and a washbasin-sized aperture shone into the dark mine.

This brightness is comparable to that of a homemade torch.

He adjusted the brightness to the second level, doubling the brightness and range again.

This brightness is more appropriate now.

Zong Shen handed two magic flashlights to the two wolf cavalry in the front row.

The remaining one was given to the dragonborn ranger Madeline.

The two sisters were at the back of the line.

Three beams of light shine into the mine, making the sight much clearer than the last time I used torch lighting.

The twelve wolf cavalry led the way at the front of the mine, lining up in a row and advancing slowly towards the interior of the mine.

Behind them were four dragon-turned-gun-and-shield warriors, holding spears in one hand and huge square shields in the other, advancing slowly like a shield wall.

Luna rode a black panther and stood beside Zong Shen. They were located in the middle of the team, which was also the core and safest command position!

Behind them are four mages and two ranger sisters, who are at the end of the team.

The mine was exceptionally quiet this time.

All the way to the mine hall, after setting fire to the cave last time, the cobwebs in the hall were almost burned, and only a part of the cobwebs remained in the passage on the right.

Neither spider web monsters nor kobolds were seen in the mine.

There were still unburnt cobwebs on the ground and on the rock walls, and black ashes were everywhere.

It looked very desolate and desolate.

There is a black iron treasure chest quietly placed in the corner on the right side of the mine.

It was covered with the remains of burned cobwebs.

Nearby were two tattered leather backpacks with traces of flames.

Everything is as mentioned in the previous guide.

"Enter the mine and start alert."

Zong Shen gave an order, and the wolf cavalry and the gun and shield warriors entered the mine first.

They were divided into two groups, one guarding the left passage and the other guarding the right passage.

Everyone entered the mine hall and became alert.

Zong Shen walked straight towards the black iron treasure chest and the two tattered leather backpacks.

【Black Iron Treasure Chest】

[An unknown black iron treasure chest, no one knows what can be found]

(There is no problem with the treasure chest, you can open it with confidence)

[Damaged cowhide backpack × 2]

[Quality: Normal (Damaged)]

[Capacity: 4/12 grids]

[Capacity: 3/12 grids]

[Durability: 16]

[A badly damaged cowhide backpack, it looks like it has been abandoned here for a few years]

(Most of the contents of the two backpacks that Baron Bezos abandoned here in a hurry have decayed, but there are also a few meaningful items)

Zong Shen chose to open the treasure chest first.

After the rule adjustment at the end of the novice period, only treasure chests and ruins have a relatively high probability of obtaining recruitment scrolls, and the recruitment scroll explosion rate for killing monsters has been reduced by almost 99%.

[Opened the black iron treasure chest successfully]

[First-level training ground construction drawing × 1]

[Second-level light crossbow barracks construction drawings × 1]

[Second-level crossbowman training book × 3]

[Avalon Light Crossbowman Recruitment Volume × 2]

[Book of Elementary Power×1]

[Craft highland wine × 6]

There are six items in total, two are construction blueprints, and the other is a training book necessary for recruitment.

Zong Shen only had the recruitment scroll and the book of power left in his hands, and the others were put into the storage compartment first.

Use the [Book of Elementary Power] first.

Strength increased by 2 points to 43 points. This attribute should be enough to use the Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword.

This increased Zong Shen's strength a lot.

Then, he stretched out his hand and activated the two recruitment scrolls at the same time.

Two magic circles emerged, and two Avalon light-armored crossbowmen emerged from them.

Now, Zong Shen already has four lightly armed crossbowmen.

Wearing the same standard equipment, they came to Zong Shen and saluted respectfully.

"Come at your call!"

"The warriors of Avalon will be victorious!"

"Avalon Light Crossbowman Jennings/Vivian reporting to you!"

"Great lord, may you be healthy!"
