Once she heard that Dafei wanted to take a look at the eight-headed snake's passage, Tazius immediately prepared a small boat made of leaves.
Dafei believed that with his current skill level, the eight-headed snake wouldn't be able to discover him if he used such a small boat to sneak in. Thus, he brought everyone along to observe. Although Dafei was already mentally prepared to kill it, he still had to carefully plan his tactics. Of course, just in case, Deirdre stayed behind.
The scene changed, and the small boat that had entered stealth entered the spatial vortex, arriving at the eight-headed snake's passage.
From afar, the mountain-like eight-headed snake's four or five long necks and heads were dancing around like drunkards. The beauties who saw the eight-headed snake for the first time couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
Anlícia's voice trembled. "My lord, you've been going in and out of it all this time, haven't you?"
Hehehe, as a wife, I must be full of respect for my husband!
"But it wasn't as manic as it is now!" Dafei said.
Damn it, he had to admit that it was probably an idiot after being hit by a log. How could it still sleep in this state?
Thus, Dafei introduced the origin of the eight-headed snake to everyone. Of course, this process was completely unnecessary. This was a game, after all. As a player's secondary hero, even if he didn't participate in the quest, he would still share information with the players. But now, Dafei felt very good about his harem, and he was very engrossed in it.
Elena said in a low voice, "Master, I can feel that the eight-headed snake's body is filled with a tremendous amount of energy. From this, it seems to be much stronger than the Leviathan we saw. Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that the Leviathan was exhausted, but in terms of strength, it should be on the same level as the Leviathan. Master, do you really want to fight such a creature?"
Dafei was shocked. As expected of a monster that had been absorbing divine power for thousands of years! Although he already knew that the eight-headed snake was very strong, hearing that it was on the same level as the Leviathan made Dafei's legs go weak.
Are you kidding me? This is a quest that the system clearly gave me! Moreover, this quest wasn't issued by some high-level NPC like a Prince or King. It was just a quest from a declining Habbit Village. This quest was no different from the village chief of a small mountain village asking players to hunt a wild boar, right? Even if I'm ahead of the others, how hard can this mission be?
Dafei hurriedly said, "But it has a weakness. It has an ice head, and its strength is far inferior to the others. Maybe we can start from this aspect?"
Anlícia immediately said, "No, the Nine-headed Hydra is a mythical monster that can rival the gods. Even if all eight of its heads are chopped off, it can still survive. Although the Nine-headed Hydra is not that powerful, it can't be that weak. Even if the ice head is chopped off, it won't affect it."
Catalina also frowned. "The terrain here is completely unsuitable for large warships to fight. Once we start fighting, we really don't know how to deal with its mountain-like pressure in such a narrow space."
Dafei's heart tightened. This was indeed a problem!
Although the Soar had the HP of a level-10 city wall, it was still a ship floating on water, not a city wall rooted in the ground. If it was a ship, it would face a huge threat, and that was being overturned by the wind and waves or the brute force of the monsters! With the size of the Nine-headed Hydra, it was very likely that it could overturn the Soar! Once it was overturned, even if the Soar was a god, it would still be doomed.
Moreover, when the game company designed this quest, did they require a large warship to complete it? This was the key point! Think about it, in such a strange space, how many players could install a teleportation circle on a large warship and teleport it here? The conditions for completing this quest were too harsh, and it was obviously impossible.
However, wasn't the reason why he could receive quests related to the Pond of Light because he had a large warship long ago? Otherwise, how could he be recommended by the mayor? In other words, this quest really required a large warship?
Or should he follow the original plan he discussed with Tazius and wait for the Evil Branch Fortress to revive and then use the fortress to block it? But there was no time to wait! Moreover, the attributes of the Evil Branch Fortress were not as good as the Soar's.
Just as Dafei was deep in thought, Anlícia said, "This Nine-headed Hydra is so powerful that it may not be something that mortals can deal with. Maybe we should report to the kingdom and ask them to send strong reinforcements."
Dafei suddenly understood. So that was it! Although the publisher of this quest wasn't high-end, the person who completed it had to be high-end! In other words, the way to complete this quest was very simple. All he had to do was go back and call for reinforcements, and the players would just sit around and do nothing, and the quest would be completed just like that? F * ck! That was the most reliable way to play!
However, Dafei was very unwilling. He had done so much preparation, and he still couldn't kill a demigod with his own hands? What would it mean if he asked for help from an NPC? It meant that the quest reward would be greatly reduced! The system would not allow the NPC to do the work, and the players could just sit around and do nothing to get the top reward.
Now that he thought about it, which of the demigods that Dafei had defeated so far did not rely on the help of an NPC? Skylar's doppelganger relied on Kortner's ship and Captain Renoir's ghost possession to fight it. In the end, he was rewarded with a Sea Soul Weapon with mediocre attributes, and the attributes of the Sea Soul Weapon had only been developed until now. What did this mean? It was very likely that the attributes of the Sea Soul Weapon had been cut! If the players really relied on their own strength to kill a demigod, then the Sea Soul Weapon reward was very likely to be better than the current one.
Similarly, it was the whole village of Habbit who defeated the demigod Giant Crocodile, and the team of Pegasus Knights who defeated the Balrog's doppelganger. Therefore, the two divine equipment rewards could not be compared to the current Sea Soul Weapon. Of course, it was not ruled out that the two rewards themselves were not that good.
In comparison, according to Charubdis, Da Fei had fought a demigod using his own strength and intelligence. Thus, the final reward was a godly teleportation crystal and a godly navigator level-up scroll. These rewards were much better than killing the Balrog.
Of course, the divine equipment rewards were secondary. The most important thing was that once the kingdom sent troops to help, the ownership of Habbit Village, the mercury mine, and even the Vine Demon Village's shares would be in question!
Because Dafei's Light City was a joint venture with the kingdom, they would each own 50% of the shares. In other words, half of the money that Dafei earned would have to be handed over to the kingdom. However, if the players expanded their territory, they would receive more shares. In other words, if Dafei successfully absorbed the Vine Demon Village and Habbit Village, Dafei's share would be 70%, and he would only have to hand over 30% of the money he earned to the kingdom.
If he borrowed the kingdom's strength to recover the territory, the kingdom would also have a share of 50%. If the NPCs contributed more than the players, the players would not even have 50% of the shares. It was very likely that Dafei's share would be 30%, while the kingdom's share would be 70%.
Of course, as long as the cake was bigger, even if the share was smaller, it would still be better than before. However, Dafei was still a little unwilling. After all, he was a man who had defeated so many demigods!
Dafei hesitated for a long time before he said, "Of course, asking for the kingdom's reinforcements is the most convenient way. But it's hard to say how many troops the kingdom can send after this battle. I still want to see if we can defeat it."
Anlícia knitted her brows and said, "That's true. The kingdom has used the reserve energy of the World Tree in this battle. Before the World Tree ends its hibernation, it will be hard for them to send out a large number of troops."
At this moment, Elena, who had been observing for a long time, spoke again, "Master, I've discovered two problems. First, the energy in the eight-headed snake's body is rather chaotic. It might be at a critical stage of evolution. But under Master's strategy, it hasn't been resting well, so it's hard to say what will happen. Second, I want to carefully observe its ice head. Can we get closer? "
Dafei quickly said, "Chief Habbit has also analyzed the first problem. He believes that it will cause the eight-headed snake to evolve its ninth head and officially become a god —"
Dafei's heart skipped a beat. Didn't I want to fatten it up and kill it after it becomes a god? But the prerequisite is that I can kill it!
Dafei shook his head and continued, "There's no problem with the second problem. Let's get closer!"
In the faint mist, the leaf boat nimbly dodged the driftwood that was coming towards it. Slowly, it was getting closer and closer to the Mountain of Flesh. It was getting closer and closer!
Although four or five of the eight-headed snake's heads were swaying, its alertness was far inferior to the time when Dafei was forced to use a tree branch to sneak into the mountain of flesh for the second time. It seemed that it had been harassed quite a bit.
Finally, a red light flashed on Dafei's screen. The Detection spell had sounded the alarm!
Dafei immediately moved the boat back and stopped outside the eight-headed snake's perimeter. They were within the range of the ballista's cannons, but just because the boat could come over did not mean that the ship could.
Forget it. If I really need the ship to fire at each other to complete this mission, I'd rather not take the risk and call for the kingdom's reinforcements.
Time ticked by. The driftwood drifted past the small boat quietly. The only sounds in the tunnel were the restless snoring of the eight-headed serpent, as well as the sound of the driftwood gently knocking against its body.
Finally, Elena let out a long sigh and said excitedly, "I've found something. The magic resistance of this ice head is unimaginably low. It might be negative! Any magic that works against it will have double the effect! "
Negative! As expected, this idiot had a lot of brains! But Anlícia had said that even if they killed it, it wouldn't help in killing it.
Everyone listened quietly.
Elena said seriously, "So, Master, this head has no resistance to spiritual magic. We can have a Dark Magic Puppet Master control this head, or use Dark Magic Madness to disturb it and make them kill each other!"
Kill each other! Dafei's heart skipped a beat. Damn! Maybe this was the reason for the ice head's existence!
