Big Black obediently landed on Liu Nian's shoulder, carrying its catch to Liu Nian's hand. Liu Nian affectionately patted the little guy's head.
It's becoming more and more adept at doing things, which saves me a lot of trouble.
Looking at the corpse of the Lizard General on the ground, Liu Nian became excited, hoping to get a good unit.
After using the summoning technique, surprisingly, the panel was completely empty.
It turns out that the Lizard General is an undead unit and cannot be recruited using Necromancy.
The heavy losses, and the inability to use the undead boss's corpse to summon spirits, were a significant setback for Liu Nian.
Let's leave here first; it's too dangerous halfway up the mountain!
After reaching the high ground, Liu Nian found himself in another swamp.
Isn't this ridiculous?
Looking at the swamp in front of him, Liu Nian didn't hesitate to complain.
What kind of bizarre terrain is this?
Like terraced fields in hilly areas, they are all layers of swamp.
After walking a few steps further in, the dreaded terrain effect reappeared.
After exploring ahead for a while, he came across another pool of water, which was still winding forward around something.
The opposite side of the pool was shrouded in mist, and Liu Nian could not see its true appearance.
Is this some kind of twisted game where every man has to climb a hundred floors?
Upon seeing the familiar pond, Liu Nian's吐槽 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for sarcastic or witty remarks) spirit began to awaken again.
After scattering his troops across the open area ahead, Liu Nian chose to check the spoils to calm himself down.
These undead lizardmen dropped a dozen or so cards, a variety of different kinds.
A great start! The boss dropped a belt for Liu Nian, finally completing his equipment set.
[Luxury Three-Layer Belt] (Blue Quality Belt)
Defense: 4-8
Effect: Provides a 3x5 space to place the potion.
Note: Three-layered belt, one more layer than two-layered belts - Gulliver, the goblin merchant.
Putting everything else aside, Liu Nian excitedly materialized the belt.
Holding the belt and examining it closely, it was more like a coil than a belt.
The belt was made of a band of unknown leather stitched together, and what was really annoying was that there were three long strips cut out on both sides of the front of the belt with a sharp blade.
Looking at this cut-up belt, won't it tear if I wear it?
The fact that it was advertised by a goblin merchant, especially since the notes mentioned it was being sold by a goblin merchant, dampened Liu Nian's excitement considerably.
Is it probably a counterfeit or substandard product?
In any game, goblins are associated with greed, but then again, goblins generally have a talent for business.
With a mixture of belief and skepticism, Liu Nian put on the belt. As he reached out to insert the medicine into his waistband, something strange happened.
A small space appeared next to Liu Nian's belt.
Space belt?
I take back what I just said!
However, its effect is much smaller than that of the Hellfire Warhorse's saddlebag!
What's amazing is that when you reach for your waist, the potions stored in the space will naturally appear in your mind, allowing you to choose the right ones.
Moreover, once the medicine is placed into the space, the space will automatically sort the medicine, making it more convenient and faster for the user to find it.
Unfortunately, apart from potions, nothing else can be put into the belt's storage space, not even magic bottles!
Overall, it's pretty good; no wonder the belt drop rate is so low.
After tidying up the potions, Liu Nian then looked through the cards in her hand.
A pile of timber
This is pretty good!
Supplies cards and medicine cards didn't hold much appeal for Liu Nian.
Before she knew it, she had flipped to the last page. Liu Nian was a little anxious. At least give her a prop!
Have I used up all my luck?
Is this all the boss's products are made?
[Skill Book: Commanding Wraiths] (Tier 3 Dark Magic)
Effect: Summons a spirit to serve you! (The summoning effect increases with skill level)
? ?
There was some excitement, but more confusion. Last time, the summoning of spirits was done with scrolls, so why is there a skill book now?
Why go through the trouble of using two forms?
If you can't figure it out, then don't figure it out!
The main theme is to be content with whatever comes your way!
After decisively learning the skill, I spent 25 magic points to summon the ghost.
Compared to the ghost, the ghost's transparency was shallower, and Liu Nian wasn't someone who cared about appearances, so he couldn't see much difference elsewhere.
The most obvious differences are flight speed and skills. As for attack power, since it's a true attack method, those few points of attack power aren't that different.
You cannot summon any more.
You cannot summon any more.
You cannot summon any more.
[Summoning spirit level increased; number of spirits summoned increased by 1]
You cannot summon any more.
...
After all that trouble, the summoning of the spirits successfully reached level five!
The number of flying units has increased to six wraiths, five ghosts, and one vampire.
Looking at the two types of ghosts fawning over the vampire, Liu Nian despised them from the bottom of his heart; they had no backbone at all!
The command of the flight units is now entirely in the hands of the vampires, while Liu Nian is more concerned about the ground forces.
The second layer of swamp was significantly more disgusting than the first. Seeing his shoes completely sink into the mud, Liu Nian was struggling to pull his feet out of the mud.
Before he could even complain, the skeleton warriors scouting ahead were swallowed up by a sudden crack that opened up in the swamp.
Your summoned creature has been killed.
With so many skeletons blocking his way, Liu Nian had no idea what was happening when he heard the voice in his head.
However, it wasn't a big problem. The scouting skeleton warriors were still in formation, and they could tell which skeleton was in trouble as soon as they saw a gap.
Sure enough, the skeleton warriors disappeared in one place, and it seemed to be that area.
No other units were allowed to take the risk, as this ability could instantly kill a level 10 skeleton warrior.
After careful observation, it was discovered that bubbles were occasionally rising from that swampy area.
Is it hidden underground?
Try it and you'll see!
The bone spear materialized as Liu Nian chanted, and the level 10 bone spear was about a meter long and looked very sharp.
Liu Nian focused his mind and threw the bone spear in his hand toward the suspicious terrain.
The bone spear easily pierced the mud and burrowed deep into the swamp.
Instantly, bright red liquid gushed out from the ground, indicating that the injury from the bone spear was quite severe.
Then the soil on the ground burst open in large areas, and a soft-bodied creature dozens of times larger than an earthworm emerged from the ground and rolled around on the ground.
The bone spear disappeared after hitting the unit, as it was a magical creation and had no physical form.
When a new monster appeared, Liu Nian instinctively used his information gathering skills.
[Morphin Worm] (Level 25 Elite Unit)
? ? ?
Skill: Devour
The other grade differences are too large to see specific numerical values.
"If you're out, you might as well stay," Liu Nian thought with a cold laugh.
The ghoul army instantly pounced on the worm and knocked it to the ground.
The worm was pinned to the ground by several ghouls, its body pierced by sharp claws, writhing in pain on the ground.
Liu Nian shuddered as he looked at its wide-open mouth, its edges covered with sharp, spike-like teeth. No wonder it could swallow a skeleton warrior whole.
However, just like with snakes, as long as you don't leave any units exposed to its frontal attacks, you can attack from its back and sides.
The system granted it the ability to devour units, but also reduced its attack and defense, especially its defense, which could be easily broken through by the claws of the ghoul army.
[Congratulations to player Liu Nian for successfully killing the Mud Worm and gaining 500 experience points]
Not knowing what trials lay ahead, Liu Nian looked at the mist-shrouded swamp ahead, feeling extremely anxious.
