Starting from Zero

When we returned to Huangshi Village, of course, we could not go straight to the village to drill stupidly. Before we came out, we already knew that this place was full of undead creatures, so we took a more secure method, which is to go around I walked around the periphery of the village before talking.

Huangshi Village is much smaller than Shanxia Village which has been burned into white ground, and it is more like a village. As for Shanxia Village, although it is called Shanxia Village, it should actually be called Shanxia Village or Shanxia Town. Regardless of the scale or the type of building, Yamashita does not look like a village. In contrast, Huangshi Village is much more true.

We first conducted a simple investigation around the periphery of Huangshi Village. The goal was to find out where the walking dead that had surrounded us before, but we were very disappointed because we looked around and found nothing. Where corpses might be hidden. Besides, so many walking dead are not only one or two, the hiding places must be very large, or they are particularly many. It is said that this kind of place should not be difficult to find, but as a result, we have not found any clues.

There are no walking dead near the village, which indicates that the walking dead did not come out nearby. There are three remaining possibilities. First, the corpse is hidden in the village, but this is unlikely. After all, Huangshi Village is basically half a ruin and can't hide anything. The second possibility is that the corpse is summoned. If this is the case, it means that there are one or more enemies of the summons nearby. Of course, I guess it should be summoned by multiple enemies. It is not one, because if a single person can summon so many corpses at once, then the power of this summoner is too strong, because at the time, I and the four of the real red were acting barely. It just came out, I couldn't manage the corpses at all. In other words, the strength of the opponent has exceeded the combined fighting strength of the four of us. This is definitely too exaggerated, so it is unlikely. The biggest possibility is that those corpses are summoners belonging to multiple summoners, not one summoner.

The third possibility is that the corpse still exists directly, but instead of hiding in the village, it comes from the outside. However, this possibility is not high. Because the moving speed of the walking dead has already shown that they cannot run long distances. However, our appearance is an accident. The other party cannot move the corpse in advance to wait for us. Naturally, there is no possibility that the corpse will attack. Unless the other party has the ability to know the prophet.

Many factors are considered comprehensively, the biggest possibility is that the opponent is calling from a group of summoners. The summoner's movement speed is usually not slow. After all, it is easy for the summoner to get a mount. So even if they can't run fast by themselves, the summoner's movement speed is definitely not too slow.

After the source of the walking dead is roughly determined, our next step is to wait, and I believe the system will not let us wait too long.

The facts are almost as we guessed. We just found some clues just after finding a place to lurk around the village. The first thing that was discovered was true red, because a group of unknown creatures ran past her hiding place, and true red took the opportunity to hear a few conversations from the other party. Those unidentified creatures appeared to be the pathfinder team. After coming here, they did not enter the village, but left the area directly after making a circle around it.

Immediately after the aliens left, several people in the village came out. Of course, the people mentioned here are only humanoid creatures. As for the specifics, I don't know. Anyway, these guys apparently came out because of the unknown creatures. After running outside the village, these people stopped at the places where the creatures stayed, then looked at the creatures that went away, and then returned. In the village.

It wasn't until these people returned that Zhenhong hurriedly moved to our side, and then whispered to me, "Is this going to start a war?"

The gold coin took the lead: "It should only be a pathfinder, when the next big troops are not here yet."

Kristina said, "After all, monsters are not human. Their battles should not be as strict as human wars. Now that they have sent out troops to explore the road, I think they should be able to watch them soon. It's time for the army. "

Zhenhong moved her hands and feet and said, "Hopefully! I'll be rusted again when I squat down!"

"You've only been lurking for more than ten minutes, right?" Gold Coin teased.

"Do you know how to spend years like this? One day is equivalent to one year. Why have I been on top for two or three days in these ten minutes? Is it normal to be a bit tired for two or three days?"

"That's an exaggerated statement, you take it seriously!"

We were arguing over there, and suddenly I heard a violent horseshoe rumbling rushing, very fast, almost near us in a blink of an eye. I took a look at the situation outside and then disguised it again. Just a glance just now I could clearly see the situation outside.

The immediate staff did not intend to hide anything. The whole group was a large group of cavalry rushing along the road, and less than half a minute after the cavalry horseshoes appeared, there was an immediate presence in the village here React, and the oldest acquaintances came out first, that is, the corpses with cloth curtains covering their faces.

These corpses are still the same old style. After they appeared, they started walking along the road to the cavalry at a very slow speed. The speed was very slow. It felt like going for a walk instead of going to war.

The cavalry on the opposite side, regardless of the situation here, those on horses look like humanoid creatures, and most of them are no different from humans, only a few bear an animal's head. These guys all wear armors made of bamboo that are common in Japan. Most of the weapons are Japanese swords. A few of them use the giant samurai swords we encountered before. Of course, these cavalry's trowels are normal-scale trowels, with a length not exceeding two meters. Lightweight to use.

The Pentium's cavalry was very fast, and they rushed to the walking dead almost in an instant. The result is of course no suspense. Those walking corpses were slow and stiff, and they did not have much fighting power at all, that is, they were relatively large. But the problem is that there are a lot of cavalry, and the cavalry in the charge is too fast, the horses have a large impact, and the walking dead can only be knocked down by the running horses. Once they fall, they will They were stepped on by the cavalry behind. It turned into a pile of rotten meat.

The fighting on both sides was basically massacre. The Walking Corps was almost completely crushed by an onslaught, but there was no **** situation in the battle. The cavalry side is almost zero casualties. Except for individual cavalry horses who fell into the bushes on the side of the road because their horses had lost their forefoot because they were too close to the edge of the road, most of them rushed into the village. As for the corpse on the other side ... although it was almost annihilated. But the walking dead did not know that they had been dead for a long time. Anyway, even if it was minced, there was no trace of blood, at most it was just some pieces of meat.

Although I knew long ago that the system would not let us wait too long, I did not expect it to be so fast. It hasn't happened yet that everyone has rushed in.

As the cavalry brigade entered the village, we naturally jumped out and began to touch the village.

When I saw the cavalry team just now, I roughly looked at it. The total number of cavalry was only a hundred people, but according to the information of General Qiman, there were more than two hundred monsters in the village over there. Up, the wave of monsters in the village had the absolute upper hand. Of course, this is just a quantitative advantage. Those alien monsters who dare to challenge the host here must have a certain understanding of the opponent's strength, and in this case dare to launch an attack, it means that the opponent's strength is actually not worse than those monsters here How much, otherwise they should not dare to launch an attack at all.

We followed the cavalry and easily touched the periphery of the village, and along the way we did not encounter any trouble except to kill a few undead walking corpses along the way.

"Come back!" As soon as I touched the side of the village, I grabbed Zhenhongdao, who was about to reach out and look out: "Don't you be spotted with a glittering head?"

Zhenhong looked down at her hands, then thought about it and asked, "What then?"

"Of course it was Christina." Gold Coin said.

Christina did not make nonsense, she opened a mirror of the water element directly in front of us, and then released another eye of the wizard, and now we can directly see the situation in the entire village.

In fact, the eye of Christina's wizard was equivalent to an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, and it was invisible. In addition, the mirror of the water element is equivalent to the video monitor output port of the unmanned reconnaissance. Of course, this thing only has the ability to receive video. Controlling the eyes of the wizard must be done by Christina. However, with these two things, we are basically the same as having our own drone.

In Christina's magic, we soon discovered that the personnel of the two sides had entered a full-fighting state in the central area of ​​the village, and the people on both sides seemed to have similar strengths, and a stalemate occurred. The group of demons that originally occupied Huangshi Village was relatively large, but the newcomers had a higher unit combat power, so it would be impossible to distinguish between the two sides at 1:30. However, as far as I am concerned, it is estimated that the final victory will most likely belong to the invaders, because the latter is more powerful.

In fact, in the case where the total strength of the two sides is not much different, the party with the higher single combat power will often win the final victory. This phenomenon has been proven many times on the battlefield in reality. The most obvious evidence is that in the battleship era, the battleships with thick armor and large calibers can be destroyed several times the number of their own guns with the same caliber and high speed. Battlecruiser with thin armor alone. Although most people in China have heard famous sayings such as "Breakfast without breaking, but not breaking fast", in fact, the difference in speed between the two sides in the battle is often not too large, so although it will indeed have an advantage after the speed is increased, but Your speed-produced advantage often doesn't offset the advantage of heavy armor at all.

This phenomenon can be seen everywhere in reality. Light tanks can only be used as infantry support firepower. It can scare people when they encounter heavy tank casualties. Most light fighters are multi-purpose auxiliary attack aircraft. Really fighting against heavy fighters is basically a tortured life. The same is true at sea. The battleships of heavy battleships are often beyond imagination. Light battleships can only fight. Of these things, the light side often has advantages in terms of speed and flexibility, but the result is not a heavy heavy unit, because the speed difference between the two sides has not actually reached the point where it can reverse the war situation.

Although the situation in the village is not entirely a matter of speed, the more elite invaders have an absolute advantage in the single combat force. Therefore, the personnel exchange rate between the two sides will definitely not be one to one. Once the guards start to die, their The overall strength will begin to decline, which will lead to a decline in the lethality of the strong side. This inherent weakness will lead the war situation to be gradually led to a more favorable state for the surviving side, that is to say, the strength of the invader side decreases slowly with the progress of the battle. The defender will quickly lose combat effectiveness. In this way, the fighting power on both sides will inevitably increase. After that, the defender can only wait for death.

Of course, this kind of warfare is actually good for us, because we can take this opportunity to destroy the legendary soul collector.

To be honest, what we are most worried about in this task is not the infiltration problem. It's how to find that soul collector. Because we still don't know what exactly the Soul Collector looks like. That demon king's soul collector is completely hidden. The monster bought by General Qiman only knows that their boss has such a thing, which can absorb a large amount of souls and transform them into undead creatures or use them to strengthen their own strength, but they have never seen anything like this. The monster didn't know what it looked like. Naturally, General Qiman didn't even know about it, and we foreigners needless to say, we must have never seen it.

However, although we do not know what the soul collector looks like, I personally think it should not be too difficult to identify. The key is that this thing will absorb soul energy, so it will certainly carry a certain amount of soul fluctuations. As long as this is used, I believe that it should not be difficult to find this thing. After all, dead things should not have soul fluctuations, because they have no soul, and this soul collector carries soul fluctuations. This is the most obvious sign.

After confirming that the monsters had been bounced, we started to act. Although General Qiman hadn't seen what the soul collector looked like, he knew where it was, so we just had to go to the designated location to find the past.

According to the map of Huangshi Village that I had seen at General Qiman, we quickly touched the back of one of the houses that looked very ordinary. The front of the house has collapsed more than half, but the back yard is still there. The position we found now is in the whole yard. In fact, there is a row of rooms behind the yard, and compared with the front room, the rear room is much more complete, and there is almost no obvious damage.

The destination of our trip was in the room in the middle of the back row of rooms. Because the front room collapsed halfway and blocked the entrance door, we can swing into the back row of rooms. Anyway, there is a row of houses in front that can't see this side at all.

After the middle room was opened, it was obvious that people often came in and out, because the two sides were not dirty at all, but they were abnormally clean, and they could even be said to be spotless. On the ground is a marble floor that is completely out of tune with the exterior of the house. Although the walls are still thatched cottage structures, a watermelon-sized metal ball suspended on the ground slowly rotates on the ground in the center of the room. Although it was not high above the ground, the sphere was indeed suspended and did not land.

"Shouldn't that be the collector?" Zhenhong asked, uncertainly looking at the golden sphere on the ground.

In fact, we have similar ideas with true red. Although this thing looks very special, it does not have the slightest soul wave, and even I can use psionic scan to perform a penetrating scan on this thing. If this thing really can absorb the soul, then even if it can't absorb the souls of us, then how much should I take the initiative to explore the past spiritual energy? But the fact is that this thing has no reaction to our soul energy at all, that is to say, this thing cannot sense the existence of the soul.

After waiting for a long time without hearing our answer, Zhenhong stepped into the room. Before, because the ground was special, we actually stood at the door and didn't walk in, but now when the red crosses in, the metal ball on the ground immediately responds.

The original golden sphere was always at a very low height ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ and was spinning at a relatively slow speed, but as true red stepped on the marble floor, the speed of the sphere's rotation It started to speed up suddenly, and the height of the sphere itself was rising, but it was very slow.

Seeing that the situation was really red, he immediately stepped down again, and the metal ball immediately began to slow down and slowly fell back to its original height.

"This thing can sense someone approaching?" Gold Coin asked in amazement as he looked at the metal ball that had quietened again.

Kristina pushed open the real red and gold coins that blocked the door and walked directly in, meanwhile saying: "The energy fluctuations just now are space-based. Most of this thing is a device like a teleportation array. Come up together, we see See where it will take us. "

After hearing Christina's words, we immediately went up to the marble floor and stood around the metal ball, not because we were foolish, but because Christina's guess was very reasonable. This Huangshi village is so big, and most of the houses are in ruins. There are more than two hundred demons, and it is impossible to really all live in the ruins of the village, so the greater possibility is that there are space entrances and exits here. , Otherwise it doesn't make sense why those demons have to occupy an abandoned human village.
