At sunset, the sun above their heads had already disappeared into the forest.
The sky had completely darkened. The weak moonlight had no effect in the depths of the forest.
But to the Elves, this was really not a threat. Even the warriors who were searching for the mines outside would not get lost like this.
Every time they went out, they would bring three days' worth of supplies, especially for such a large-scale operation.
And night vision was the ability of most races in the Gods' continent.
Except for … humans.
But there were strong and weak ones.
Of course, as human professionals gradually became stronger, night vision was no longer a problem.
At this moment, William could make use of a small amount of starlight to see things that were more than ten meters away. He was sitting on a tree branch, staring at a monkey that knew how to salute. Needless to say, when he saw the monkey, he remembered …
Although there were buildings and many tents of the Orc tribe beneath his feet.
But the Elves would definitely not choose to live in such a dirty place. They would rather lie on the tree and sleep than choose to live in the tents that smelled of feces and urine.
There was no fragrance here …
As the Lord, William naturally did not need to search for the iron mine himself. This kind of thing was enough for his subordinates to do.
The leader opened his mouth and his subordinates ran all over the place. This was the happy life of a Lord.
Only Lautner and Nox accompanied him!
Nox was his personal guard, and his strength was not bad. He was also a magic swordsman. He was tall and had a valiant aura. He was one of the few strong and muscular Elves.
In particular, he did not like ordinary long swords. Instead, he preferred to carry a hooked scimitar. He could hook the enemy over and then jump and slash violently.
His hobbies were strange.
William could not imagine …
The characteristics of the Elves were very simple. They said one thing and two things. They would never retreat during a war. They could not help but feel very proud of any race.
Even if the enemy was very fierce, very strong, or even more handsome than them … this was impossible!
Anyway, the Elves would always raise their heads proudly and look at the enemy with their nostrils. They would use their eyes to tell the enemy, "I may not be able to defeat you, but I can endure to death. I can endure to death your son, your grandson, your great-grandson, until the moment you die without descendants!"
There was no other way …
Their arrogance lay in their appearance, lifespan and strength.
Their words and even their actions were very similar to the human nobles. But they did not have as many mortal etiquette as the nobles. They had a more natural feeling.
Of course.
Said they looked like royalty.
When the humans were ruled by the elves, the so-called nobles were imitating the behavior of the elves.
William didn't know how much time had passed, but he fell asleep while leaning against a tree branch.
With a call.
Lautner woke him up.
Two Elven Rangers walked over and patted their chests with their left hands. They said proudly, "My Lord, our team has discovered an iron mine. The other three are guarding over there. We'll report back first!"
"Good, very good. The five of you will be rewarded with 10 silver coins each!"
"Thank you, my lord!" The elf squad leader bowed in greeting. Money was such a good thing. Of course, they were still arrogant and expressionless. It was only natural for them to bow.
For ordinary civilians, five copper coins was enough for them to live happily for a day. During the day, they could eat four pieces of black bread, which were crunching hard, but could be dipped in water to eat.
If they were more extravagant, they could buy a glass of terrible whiskey with the other copper coin, and they could sleep soundly until dawn.
If you're saving some.
Three coppers for three loaves of black bread.
He could still keep two copper coins …
As William Blackleaf's personal guards.
This group of pure-blooded elves would definitely not live such a hard life. Elves were very thrifty, and even the worst food could be eaten elegantly.
But when these personal guards left the Elven City, they were used to living a good life, and each of them brought a lot of wealth.
In particular, William couldn't be too stingy. The better he treated them, the more loyal they would be.
"After all, at critical times, they are the dogs that can help me!"
The reason why William wasn't very popular back then was that he was too stingy …
Of course, it could also be related to his nature.
He was poor!
But now he had obtained a lot of gold coins. Although he didn't know which unlucky fellow the Orcs had robbed, these gold coins were definitely a large sum of wealth for him.
And he always remembered that wealth represented numbers. Only by sharing wealth could he obtain intangible and tangible results.
It seemed that loyalty was intangible, but it was definitely useful at critical times.
A Lord that was too stingy would not be able to achieve great things.
"You guys should rest too. Oh right, are there any Orcs guarding the mine?" William suddenly asked.
"No, but we found the footprints of a giant wild bear at the entrance of the iron mine, so we didn't act rashly. We just let the other three stay there to prevent any accidents!"
"Giant wild bear?" William raised his eyebrows. They were really going to hunt. It was no wonder that these Orcs were not guarding the mine. It turned out that the hole that had just been dug had been used by the giant wild bear as a nest.
This kind of giant bear, which was born as a middle-level magical beast, was not weak.
Not only was its skin rough and thick, but its strength was also extremely great. Basically, whoever it slapped … would die. It was an existence even more reckless than the Orcs.
And this kind of giant wild bear also knew earth magic. Its various tricks were very annoying.
In the early and middle stages, when players faced this kind of difficult giant wild bear, they basically used their lives to pile on it …
In particular, there was a certain chance that it could grow into a high-level magical beast. If it really was a Giant Berserker Bear that was close to becoming a high-level magical beast or had broken through the upper limit, without Lautner, even if these 300 elven warriors could kill it, they would suffer heavy losses.
So it was definitely a smart choice for the Orcs to give up on the iron mine, or they had already suffered.
Lautner grasped the longsword at his waist and asked doubtfully, "Did you find out what level the giant wild bear was?"
"I don't know, but looking at the footprints, it should be as big as my armor!"
William Blackleaf pondered for a while and asked, "Uncle Lautner, can you kill it in a one-on-one fight?"
"…" Lautner's mouth twitched. "It might be a giant wild bear that will become a high-level magical beast. Let's not fight it in a one-on-one fight. I'm so handsome and mighty. If I bully it, my subordinates will gossip."
William glanced at him and nodded …
Being an Epic-level professional did not mean that he was invincible. Lautner was still considered young among the Elves. Even the people who followed William had just entered their youth. They were all very young and had not fully grown up. They had great potential.
Furthermore, Lautner had an Epic-level bloodline, but he did not have the power of an Epic-level. He had not fully unleashed the potential of his Epic-level bloodline.
Just like William Blackleaf, he had a Legendary-level bloodline …
In the eyes of players of the same level, he was a Legendary-level Boss. Because in the eyes of players, there would be a Legendary-level symbol next to him. In terms of attributes and various bonuses, he was really a Legendary-level Boss among the NPCs of level 9.
Furthermore, he had the exclusive symbol of a Legendary-level Boss.
If he was killed, he would drop an Epic-level growth inner armor …
MMP。
But in the World of Gods, ordinary, elite, chief, grandmaster, epic, and legendary bloodlines represented potential, talent, and bonuses. They did not represent levels.
Players and NPCs had different views.
After all, players were more concerned about bloodlines. They were not too interested in levels. If the levels were too high, they would not be able to defeat them. They could only lick their boots …
And the bonuses of every level of NPCs' bloodline were as follows!
Beginner level + 0.1%. Level 10 – 39 belonged to the beginner level.
Intermediate level + 0.2%. Level 40 – 69 belonged to the intermediate level.
Advanced level + 0.3%. Level 70 – 99 belonged to the advanced level.
Grandmaster + 0.5%.
Epic + 0.7%.
Legendary + 1%.
In terms of the overall level of NPCs, every level increased the basic attributes by a percentage.
For example, William Blackleaf was now level 9. That meant that his basic attributes had increased by 9%. It could be stacked all the way to the upper limit of level 100. From then on, when he leveled up, his bloodline would not increase his attributes. But when a Legendary-level rose to level 100, his attributes would double.
Conclusion: Legendary Bloodline, Super Awesome.
And based on the lifespan of this giant wild bear, even if it was not an adult, its level was still higher than Lautner's. If it was too much higher, it would definitely be stronger than Lautner.
In short, magical beasts were much stronger than intelligent creatures in terms of their basic health points and basic attributes.
"Then let's prepare well. Tomorrow morning, we'll make more knockout potions, but not fatal poisons. Of course, we'll also have various traps. Once everything is prepared, we'll deal with it! " William could only put his thoughts aside. After all, he had not seen that big fellow, so he could not find out what level it was.
