Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

Perhaps because of the daytime, [Regional Channel] is not too busy.

No one seems to have noticed what's going on with the goblin tribe.

But this is normal. As the regional hegemon, the goblins have already slaughtered the lords who descended near the northern mountains and forests to pieces.

As for the lords whose territory is far away from the Goblin tribe, they are naturally unaware of the situation there.

Today's [Regional Channel] is equivalent to a large group of more than 6,000 people online at the same time.

Although there are relatively fewer active lords during the day.

But just as he was flipping through it, more than a hundred pieces of information were refreshed.

Zong Shen watched boredly for a while before closing the [channel] and focusing on the mysterious black spot that was flying quickly. .

Although I don’t know what that black spot is.

But Zong Shen bets that the black spot must be related to the rampaging Cthulhu projection.

After the Cthulhu projection was covered by the [Skin of the Forgotten], its evil energy was neutralized a lot, and the remaining evil energy was only enough for it to exist for five or six minutes.

This mysterious black spot obviously exceeds the limit of this existence time. It is definitely not the same thing as the Cthulhu projection, and it must be some kind of vicious method.

But it doesn't matter, relying on the "walking the dog" tactic of space teleportation, this thing will never touch Zong Shen.

Unless its energy can support it to fly at high speed.

So Zong Shen looked completely confident.

While the mysterious black dot was still on the way, he was going to ask the strategy module what it was.

"What exactly is that thing that locks onto me at high speed?"

(The Eye of Cthulhu condenses the old curse. Once it touches it, the old curse will become parasitic in your body.

Eyeballs will appear on your body surface, your flesh, blood and soul will be contaminated, and then gradually transform into an indescribable monster)

Zong Shen silently read the notes on the strategy module.

"Old curse...?"

"I knew what that guy put out was definitely up to no good!"

When he saw the word curse and the description behind it, Zong Shen wanted to curse.

With eyeballs all over his body, wouldn’t that be as disgusting as [The Forgotten One of the Evil God]!

After some complaints, Zong Shen continued to ask about the strategy module.

"How long will this thing last?"

(If it continues to fly at this speed, its evil energy can probably maintain the pursuit state for 1 day, 7 hours and 29 minutes. When the evil energy is exhausted, it will fall on the spot.

The mark of the old curse still exists, you can use [Skin of the Forgotten] to collect the Eye of Cthulhu, and release the curse by throwing the eyeball when necessary)

After reading the guide tips, the expression on Zong Shen's face suddenly softened a lot.

This thing can only fly for another 31 hours and 29 minutes at most.

And judging from the meaning of the strategy module, when its evil power is exhausted, you can also use [Skin of the Forgotten] to recycle the Eye of Cthulhu that has lost its evil power.

This Eye of Cthulhu still bears the mark of the curse, which can be used against other enemies.

Speaking of which, this curse is not directly lethal.

Its function is just to turn the target into a monster with eyeballs all over its body.

But since the guide says so, it proves that the ability of this curse is still valuable.

If you have a chance then, just take it away.

After understanding the basic situation of the mysterious black spot, time passed by minute by second.

With the help of the strategy module, Zong Shen can see the real-time distance between the cursed eyeball and him.

When the cursed eyeball was still more than 80 kilometers away from him.

Zong Shen was ready to run away.

In order to increase the teleportation distance, he decided to use the golden trap treasure box.

It's interesting to say that this is the first time he has actively opened a trap treasure chest.

You must know that 99% of the lords are very afraid of trap treasure chests, and can even be said to avoid them.

But Zong wanted to make a show today.

Thinking of this, he reached out and brushed the golden trap treasure chest and chose to open it.

Just in case, he also took out the [Wind, Fire, Thunder, Roaring and Violent Bear Shield (orange)].

When necessary, you can activate [Bear Guard] to obtain a layer of 3500-point magic shield with a solid value of 80 points and double resistance.

When he chose to open it, the treasure chest opened immediately.

As the box lid slowly opens, what appears is not the halo of any item, but the azure blue light that represents space transmission.

This ray of light swept over like a wave and immediately enveloped Zong Shen.

The next moment, Zong Shen felt that the world was spinning and there was an illusion of time and space being separated.

It is much rougher than Rhys Ulysses's [Shadow Wormhole] and Space Portal.

Especially the reaction after the transmission almost made Zong Shen want to vomit!

The power surrounding the space around him did not take Zong Shen's existence into consideration at all.

It made him feel like he was being shaken repeatedly in a jar.

The vision is filled with chaotic blue light.

There are countless scenery twisted together, forming a huge whirlpool.

Occasionally, the power of space would squeeze his body hard!

Although it is not fatal, there is still some physical pain.

The distance under the golden circle mark that originally locked the Eye of Cthulhu also jumped wildly.

It becomes a string of numbers that changes in real time.

This process has nothing to do with comfort, it’s even uncomfortable!

It is indeed a trap, it is not so easy to tolerate!

The transmission process lasted for more than ten seconds.

During this period, Zong Shen, who was as strong as he was, felt dizzy and even felt a little nauseous.

After the transmission ended, Zong Shen could no longer tell the difference between east, west and north.

The surrounding scenery is no longer the familiar mountains and forests.

"vomit…"

He bent over and retched, then sat unsteadily on the ground.

I originally thought that the mere fourth-level space magic was not worth mentioning.

But in fact, a trap is a trap after all, and comfort is never considered in its delivery process.

Fortunately, this transmission is indeed random.

If it were a wicked trap, I would probably just show off a wave of operations and teleport the activator to a lava lake, a height of 10,000 meters, a closed cave, or some epic monster. That would be a real cheat.

Zong Shen fell to the ground and took out a bucket of water and took a few sips.

Then he closed his eyes directly to relieve the dizziness.

Being able to stun Zong, who had a strength attribute of over 200 points, clearly shows the power of the teleportation just now.

If it were an ordinary lord, he might be dizzy by now.

The brain can be shaken into brain flakes.

Zong Shen, who closed his eyes to relax, did not relax his vigilance.

Although he was extremely uncomfortable, he still let the strategy module warn him.

After a full seven or eight minutes, Zong Shen recovered.

He panted and took out the spare [Energy Fountain] and took a sip.

The [Energy Fountain] with its own bubbly taste made him feel much more comfortable as soon as it entered his throat.

After the status challenge was completed, he focused on observing the surrounding environment and the distance between the Eye of Cthulhu and him.

At this moment, he was in a strange place.

This piece of land is exposed, without any soil, and is all gray-brown rocks.

This is true everywhere you look.

It is not yet known how large this area of ​​limestone is.

After all, the teleportation distance of the treasure chest is in the range of 5000~9999 kilometers.

But the direction of transmission is uncertain.

Different distances in different directions will naturally have different terrain environments.

You must know that on the earth, the distance scale of thousands of kilometers is enough to cross a continent.

At such distance scales, the landscape topography can vary greatly.

Just like the eastern region of the Avalon Kingdom where Zong Shen is located.

Most of them are grasslands, basins, and valleys, but there are also mountains, hills, river valleys, streams, etc.

There are also places like the Boneyard and the Gobi Demiplane.

This is probably the so-called roughness and fineness. It is clear at first glance, and all the internal organs are complete when you take a closer look!

Zong Shen stomped hard and felt the hardness of the ground under his feet. There was no doubt that the ground was rock mass.

There is almost no grass growing on the rock mass.

Only some sediment accumulated in some gaps, and green branches grew.

Most of the rock mass is bare with no accumulation of silt, just some grains of sand that appear dry.

It looks like the ground after soil erosion.

There are three main factors that lead to soil erosion.

They are climate, geology and vegetation.

However, the above are just Zong Shen's guesses. In fact, the landform factors in the Endless Continent are more complex than those on Earth.

After all, there are many factors that can affect the terrain here, such as the accumulation of magic elements, traces left by ancient battlefields, the invasion of unknown energy, etc.

After observing the surrounding environment, Zong Shen turned his attention back to the distance marked by the golden circle.

It clearly states that the Eye of Cthulhu is 8,927 kilometers away from him...

Even at its flying speed, it would take more than six hours to reach this distance.

In other words, Zong Shen had six hours to explore this new place.

And he can directly use the strategy module to pinpoint nearby locations worth exploring!

Thinking of this, Zong Shen suddenly became energetic.

The discomfort caused by the violent teleportation was all left behind.

Exploration is something Zong Shen has always been passionate about.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and started asking about the strategy module.

"Please point me to places worth exploring nearby!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there were exactly three more golden circle marks in his field of vision: one large, two small, and two small.

Directly in front of him, on the right side and behind him on the right side.

The closest distance directly ahead is the Golden Circle, which is also the largest, only 21 kilometers.

The ones on the right and rear right are 42 kilometers and 61 kilometers respectively.

The larger the golden circle, the higher the exploration value.

So Zong Shen decided to go to the golden circle mark directly ahead.

At this time, a means of transportation is needed.

Now he even only has the [Magic Drilling Machine].

He gave all the [Heavy Bearer Mecha] to Luna so that he could better move back the kobolds and the two hundred reserve miners in the mining area.

The [Magic Drilling Machine] is also a crawler type site.

In addition to drilling into the ground, it can also drive on the ground without starting the drill bit.

During the previous Winter Challenge period, he relied on the [Magic Drilling Machine] to travel.

The speed is not slow, at least faster than him running.

After taking out the [Magic Drilling Machine], he opened the glass hatch and sat in the cockpit.

All the magic mechas he carries are full of magic energy.

After entering the cockpit, Zong Shen skillfully activated the magic core.

With the core trembling, the [Magic Drilling Machine] was successfully started.

After lightly pushing the power lever, the magic core transmits the power to the track through a series of transmission gears and adjustment gears.

The [Magic Drilling Machine] started to move forward slowly.

As the speed gradually increased, Zong Shen pushed the power lever to the maximum.

In the third gear of power, the forward speed of the drilling rig can reach 35 kilometers per hour.

However, due to many reasons such as terrain and load, it actually only reached a speed of just over 30 kilometers per hour.

This speed made Zong Shen, who had long been accustomed to riding an aerial beast roaring by, very uncomfortable.

At this speed, it will take at least more than forty minutes to reach the destination ahead.

He only has six hours to stay here.

After roughly estimating the itinerary, he found that it would take at least three hours to travel to three locations one after another.

There wasn't much time left for him to explore.

Suddenly, he remembered something and quickly stopped pushing.

He can first use the [thousand-kilometer level portal] to leave a beacon here.

Anyway, there is still a free beacon position in the portal.

Even if you can’t finish exploring this time, you can still do it again next time.

After all, the movement efficiency of the portal is very good.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is absolutely not difficult to travel thousands of miles in an instant.

In this case, there is no need to worry about whether the exploration can be completed within today.

So Zong Shen immediately took out the [Portal] and set it as a new beacon.

Then the [Magic Drilling Machine] was restarted and headed towards the target location.

The "rumble" rotation of the crawler tracks made the rock base tremble slightly.

…

At the same time, in the Goblin tribe.

The ground here has been soaked with the dark green blood of goblins.

A faint evil energy rose from the ground like steam.

It makes this place look very weird.

The entire Goblin tribe has been almost destroyed.

Vereesa is leading others to clean up the battlefield.

Now there are only some corner positions that have not been searched.

At the same time, the remaining bodies of the goblins were also gathered up and ignited by Favid using the fireball technique.

In addition to treasure chests, there are also some relic items in the Goblin tribe.

Including the most important [Fragments of the Elf Key (Orange)].

With this fragment, Zong Shen collected four [Elf Keys] and had some of Azshara's permissions.

This is crucial to his next exploration plan!

In addition, there are a large number of scattered crude weapons.

For example, the black iron spear of the Goblin Spear Thrower, the totem carving of the Goblin Shaman, the scimitar of the Goblin Warrior, etc. The grades range from gray to blue.

As for the two [Wrath of the Evil God] and the special [Crossbow of Evil Intent] that Zong Shen specially told him about, Vereesa also put them into the storage compartment.

As a matching epic crossbow arrow, this thing is good for defending the city!
