Chapter 174 Lava Cave
Cheng Yang didn't let a few people wait here all this time. Taking advantage of this gap, he took Jiang Yang and the other six to sweep around and killed five groups of demonized beasts. "] Of course, since they are soldiers, the psionic energy they earn is completely owned by the territory. Although there are only more than 3,000 points, it is still a wealth, isn't it?
When they returned to the cliff again, Jiang Yang and the others were stunned. Because they saw a strange thing. The cliff, which was completely normal before, has changed its appearance. There are huge caves on the cliff, three or four feet wide, and five feet high. The ground emits a dark light, which looks eerie. And on the top of the cave, suddenly there are several characters written in seal script: lava cave.
"Where is this place?" Wang Yuan, who was most surprised, couldn't help asking.
Cheng Yang said: "Isn't it written on it? Lava cave."
Wang Yuan and the others were dumbfounded. They naturally knew these words, but so what if they knew the name? Still not sure what exactly this is.
Cheng Yang smiled and said: "There should be countless demonized beasts here, and our purpose this time is to kill them all....Okay, let's not talk, let's go in first."
Cheng Yang strode into the cave, and Wang Yuan and the others followed without hesitation.
The cave is very wide, and there is a faint sulfur smell in the cave, and it is not as cold as in ordinary caves, but it makes people feel very hot and dry.
Cheng Yang and the others were not surprised by this. After all, the name of this cave is lava cave, and there may be high-temperature magma inside. The temperature is really nothing.
In fact, Cheng Yang knew very well about this cave.
On this day of every month, a place like this will appear in every major urban area or surrounding area in the world. Its function is equivalent to the leveling map in the game.
Although the cave has appeared now, it is not completely opened, because before the land reclamation is completed, the monsters inside are really beyond the reach of ordinary people. Moreover, there will only be one unfinished leveling map in a main city area at the same time. to 30 days later. If this lava cave is not destroyed, no new map will appear. In this way, it is equivalent to one less leveling map in the main city area.
Cheng Yang remembered that in his last life, the first leveling map in the Xiangcheng area was in the seventh month. In other words, in the last Xiangcheng City, the land reclamation of the lava cave was completed in the seventh month. The first known time in the world to complete leveling map land reclamation is the sixth month. In comparison, Xiangcheng ranks relatively low among major cities in the world.
Some people may think,
It doesn't matter if there is one less leveling map. After all, the monsters refreshed in the field are enough for humans to kill, and the psionic energy obtained can basically meet the needs of warriors. But in fact. As time goes by, there will be fewer and fewer enchanted beasts refreshed in the wild.
And because the area close to the main human city or the field station is a place where fighters are active, it is difficult to form a monster lair in this area. And once the lair is more than 20 kilometers away from the human town, even if it is occupied by humans, the efficiency of earning psionic energy points will not be very high, unless the fighters have been stationed around the lair.
Whether it is for the main city or for the field camps, the dens of demonized beasts are in the hands of some big forces, because compared to spawning monsters in the wild. Even this kind of unique leveling map, the efficiency of earning psionic value is not as high as that of ordinary wild lairs. The lair is equivalent to a strategic resource, and individuals or small forces have no ability to possess it.
When the refreshment of demonized beasts in the wild is reduced to a certain level, most of the fighters who are employed as mercenaries want to find new refreshment points for demonized beasts. Either enter the leveling map, or open up wasteland further afield. But things like land reclamation become more troublesome in the later stages, and it is even very difficult for some lords. Not to mention these scattered people or small forces. So leveling maps like lava caves became their inevitable choice.
For now, the main way for fighters in Luofeng Village to earn psionic points every day is to kill the demonized beasts that are refreshed in the wasteland area around the territory. Occasionally, the five main battalions will also organize the whole battalion to open up wasteland. Expand the area of activity.
Cheng Yang now chooses to open up lava caves in the first month, the purpose of which is to open up a stable place to earn spiritual energy points for the fighters in the territory.
Calculated based on the current refresh rate of demonized beasts, the land reclamation area around Luofeng Village is a circular area with a diameter of about 16 kilometers. Even if the land area of Luofeng Village is deducted, the area where monsters can be killed is more than 700 square kilometers. And in such a huge area, there are only about 400,000 demonized beasts refreshed every day. This is because the refresh rate is only available when the warriors kill them efficiently.
This number may sound like a lot, but when you calculate it carefully, in fact, there are only five or six hundred demonized beasts spawned per square kilometer per day, and an average of twenty or thirty in an hour.
Just imagine, in the case of two or three people forming a team, wandering around this square kilometer for an hour can only meet twenty or thirty demonized beasts. This efficiency is absolutely pitifully low. Of course, with the current number of fighters in Luofeng Village, there are definitely more than two or three fighters in one square kilometer, so the efficiency of earning psionic energy points will be even lower.
The leveling map is different. The demonized beasts in it are refreshed at a fixed location, and the refresh frequency is also very high. However, the demonized beasts here are not spawned one by one, but in groups. Depending on the leveling area, the number of monsters spawned is also different. Sometimes there are a few refreshed at a time, and sometimes dozens or even hundreds of them are refreshed at a time. The refresh frequency is once every ten minutes.
Of course, the leveling map also has flaws, that is, the monsters inside are at least twice as strong as the monsters outside. Without the strength of a middle-level apprentice, even if you want to mix in the outermost layer, it is not an easy task.
This cave is a downward slope. After Cheng Yang and others walked inward for tens of meters, the environment changed suddenly. The originally dark cave began to slowly turn dark red, and the ground gradually became hot.
"Lord, there is a problem with the ground." Jiang Yang said immediately.
Cheng Yang said: "Don't worry, I've made preparations." After finishing speaking, Cheng Yang took out the Fire Repelling Orb from his bosom, and a moment of coolness filled everyone's surroundings, and the hotness just now disappeared without a trace no trace.
Everyone continued to move forward for more than 100 meters, and it is estimated that the vertical height of the deep underground is almost 30 meters. At this time, the environment in front of them makes Jiang Yang and others tremble with fear.
The originally ten-meter-wide cave became forty to fifty meters here, and the entire cave sank into a high-temperature dark red. In front, a rocky road seven or eight meters wide stretched to the depths, and both sides of the rocky road turned out to be tumbling magma.
Wang Yuan hesitated, and said, "Lord, how...how do I get here?"
Cheng Yang smiled and said: "Don't worry, as long as you don't fall into the magma, there will be no danger. But you have to pay attention, once we step on that rocky road, monsters will emerge from the magma on both sides. We must Kill these guys immediately. Otherwise, you will be in danger when they approach."
"The monster that rushed out of the magma? What rank is that?" Jiang Yang asked the key point in one sentence.
Cheng Yang said: "The lowest level is the late stage of the first order, but the situation here is different. The demonized beasts inside are twice as strong as those outside. That is to say, the late stage of the first order here has the strength of the peak of the first order."
Jiang Yang and the others were taken aback, and exclaimed, "Then... how do you fight this? The lord ventured in this time, is there something very heaven-defying in it?"
Cheng Yang said: "There may be one or two good things, but there are no heaven-defying things, because this is just a place for fighters to kill monsters and earn psionic points."
Wang Yuan asked in astonishment: "Lord, are you right? Killing these demonized beasts equivalent to the peak of the first order to earn psionic energy points? Isn't the risk too high? And the efficiency is comparable to killing monsters outside ?"
Cheng Yang then briefly explained the difference between this leveling map and the wild monsters, and everyone understood.
Finally, Cheng Yang said: "The reason why we are facing the existence of the late stage of the first order this time is because it is now land reclamation. After the land reclamation is completed, the magma here will disappear completely, and the strength of the monsters will return to normal levels." .At that time, as long as the strength reaches the middle stage of the first order, it should not be a problem to join hands to kill the demonized beasts here."
After listening to the explanation, Wang Yuan finally understood.
"Okay, I will lead the way, and you will follow behind. Once there are magical beasts coming out, focus on attacking. Although the current magical beasts are powerful, they are not many in number. With our combat power, we can completely deal with it." After Cheng Yang gave an order, he took the first step towards the rocky road.
Wang Yuan and the others looked at each other, and then quickly followed.
Although the tumbling magma was only a few meters away from them, they did not feel the slightest heat, which was a very wonderful experience.
At this time, Xiaobai was already awakened by Cheng Yang, making him walk in the front. This guy didn't have the slightest bit of stage fright, instead he walked leisurely in all directions, walking forward like an official patrolling the street.
They walked for less than ten seconds, and there was a burst of tumbling in the magma more than 20 meters away on the right side of the front, and a fiery red ball emerged from it, with flames tumbling around, and went straight to Cheng Yang and others.
"What kind of guy is this?" Jiang Yang and others exclaimed.
Cheng Yang yelled: "Kill!" Then an ice hockey was thrown over, and at the same time, Xiaobai's tall body also moved quickly, directly blocking the fireball and Cheng Yang's group. It seems that it is very clear about its responsibilities. In this war, it is a human shield.
As Cheng Yang shot out the puck, Jiang Yang and the others also knew that the ball was the monster that needed to be killed, and without hesitation, they directly took out their strongest attack and greeted the ball. (to be continued..)
