Building infrastructure in a digital world

Chapter 10 10. Mysterious Creatures
Weaknesses: Stone monsters are composed of irregular stones, and each connection is very fragile. Once more than half of the connections are damaged, it will be regarded as killed.

……

Using the gravel that is infinitely attractive to the stone monster as bait, attract it to the trap made with rope, and then strangle the connection point of the stone monster's body... This is how Su You killed the stone monster Way.

Although it sounds simple, stone monsters are monsters that act in groups, and stone monsters are very powerful, so if you want to complete this set of operations, Su You must first have a way to seduce a stone monster alone, otherwise you will not even be able to deal with it. Even a stone monster may overturn her car, and facing two stone monsters at the same time is basically a dead end.

Secondly, Suyou also needs sufficient materials to carry out this series of actions.

The materials here include the gravel used as bait—she had already used up all the original gravel, and she found this piece after searching for a long time.

In addition, she also needed a lot of string to set up traps, so she collected a lot of fiber plants whenever she saw fiber plants on the road during the search for gravel.

Because of the existence of the stone knife, Suyou used the stone knife to break open the stems of the fiber plants to collect the fiber debris this time.

Although this will consume the durability of the stone knife, compared with the wooden needle, the stone knife is a more advanced tool, and using it to collect fiber debris consumes less durability. On average, collecting three fiber plants only loses a little durability of the stone knife.

In addition, better tools will make the collection more efficient and consume less energy when collecting...

After collecting a certain amount of fiber debris and synthesizing it into a thread, and then assembling it with the bait gravel, Su You's 'stone monster trap' has been completed.

So far, Su You's stone monster trap has successfully helped her kill five stone monsters. If you add the one you just killed, there will be six in total.

Su You let go of the rope, shook her numb hands, and then walked towards the place where the stone monster died.

【Obtain gravel*2】

【Obtain gravel*1】

The first two pieces of gravel are dropped by killing the stone monster, and the last piece of gravel is the previous bait.

After so much effort wasted, her physical strength dropped by dozens of points, and her hands were already a little sore from pulling the rope so hard. In the end, there were only two pieces of gravel... Just when Su You couldn't help but want to sigh, she A strange bump was seen in the pile of leaves.

Pushing aside the upper leaves, Su You saw a complete stone.

【Obtain stone*1】

Although the location is a bit strange, this stone should also be dropped by killing the stone monster.

In other words, this stone monster contributed a total of five gravels to Su You!
You must know that among the five stone monsters killed before, the most one only dropped three gravels, and the least one even dropped only one gravel. This one can beat the previous two.

With the harvest of this extra stone, Su You's mood instantly brightened.

Putting away the dropped and surrounding strings, Su You checked the condition of each string.

A total of five strings were used in this trap. Perhaps because the stone monster struggled too hard just now, three of the strings had a tendency to break.

It's not impossible to use it if you have to, but Su You has to take the risk that the stone monster will break free...

She thought about it, then tied the three cords together to form a new cord, and then took out a brand new cord from her backpack.

"Four are enough."

Originally, this trap only needed three wires in the most extreme situation, because there are only five connection points of the stone monster, namely the head and limbs, and the killing judgment of the stone monster is that more than half of the connection points are broken ...that is, it is enough that only three connection points are broken.

Su You used five ropes, on the one hand, to make up for her lack of strength, to prevent breaking free, and to increase the fault tolerance rate, and on the other hand, to speed up the death time of the stone monster.

After skillfully arranging the four strings, Su You took the gravel and prepared to go to another stone monster's refresh point to seduce the stone monster.

The companions of this stone monster with a high explosion rate are all gathered together. It is not convenient for her to seduce alone, so she can only go to the place where the stone monster was found before to see if there are any other stone monsters alone.

There is nothing wrong with Su You's thinking, but the reality is obviously completely different from what she imagined.

When she came to the first stone monster refresh point, the open space where there should have been three stone monsters was empty...

wrong!

In fact, it can't be regarded as empty!
Because Su You saw seven or eight pieces of gravel and a large piece of stone in the open space!

Under normal circumstances, when Su You saw so many gravels, and even a piece of stone, she must have wanted to rush forward and put it into her backpack, but at this time, when she saw so many stones, her first reaction was Instead of picking up things, he immediately hid himself in the bushes.

Because these gravels are not only the resources that Suyou needs most at present, but also convey a dangerous signal.

No need to think about it, this pile of stones must have fallen from the death of the three stone monsters.

Stone monsters can't commit suicide, and she didn't kill these stone monsters, so they can only be killed by other creatures... In the Sunset Continent, it's not just the players who kill monsters that will drop items, and other creatures fight with each other. Death can also produce drops.

In other words, during the time Su You left, a creature with extremely strong combat power easily killed the three stone monsters.

Why do you say it is easy?
Because Su You didn't see any signs of struggle here.

It can make the stone monster helpless and kill it directly. Although the stone monster moves slowly, it is enough to show how terrifying the strength of this mysterious creature is.

Reminiscent of the big paw print I saw before, Su You now only feels her heart beating fast, and her clenched hands are becoming more and more forceful, leaving some red marks in her palm.

She now has two options, one is to leave directly, the other is to take away the gravel and stones, and then leave.

If she chooses to leave directly, there is a high probability that nothing will happen, because she is protected by the halo.

The strength of this mysterious creature is so high, but she has not been harmed. Unless the other party is completely blind and has not noticed her existence at all, this can only mean that it does not want to do anything to her for the time being.

But if you choose the latter...

To be honest, since Su You chose to stay here and not leave, it was because she was really greedy for those gravels and that piece of stone.

Because as long as she has this batch of stones, her materials are enough...

　Thank you [March] for your reward.
