Jia Sanyue shook his head mysteriously.
"Of course, it's not that no one wants them. It's just that no one has the strength to open them."
He picked up a piece of meat with his chopsticks and explained,
"There are restrictions to entering these three treasure troves. Only Level 1 Heroes can enter the Undead Ruins, and Level 3 and above troops are forbidden from entering. Booty Bay and Ogre Fortress are restricted to Level 2 Heroes and below, and Level 4 and above troops are restricted to Level 4 and above. With the difficulty of these three treasure troves, it will be extremely difficult to enter."
Well, Lin Xiao was speechless.
According to these conditions, it was indeed ridiculously difficult.
"By the way, if you're interested in these three treasures, you'd better report to the City Lord's Mansion before you take action. If there's a corresponding quest, you can take the treasures and complete the quest to earn a lot of points."
"Well, I'll do it before I have such an idea."
"No need to wait. You can take the quest in advance. There's no time limit, and you won't be punished if you don't complete it."
"Oh!"
The two chatted as they ate. Jia Sanyue did want to do him a favor, so he told him everything he knew. After the conversation, he had a rough idea of what to do next.
If it was about experience, he would have more than 50,000 points, which would be enough for him to level up.
If he could block this guy, the two hundred elite archers would be able to stay behind and shoot arrows.
One said,
"Actually, I'm interested in these three treasures too. I hope I can take one of them. We're competitors, so you better hurry up!"
Lin Xiao smiled.
"The treasures aren't mine. Anybody can take them."
Jia Sanyue laughed, waved his hand, and left.
Lin Xiao stood on the street and thought for a long time. He smiled and left.
He had to report to the City Lord's Mansion first, and then check the quest list in the square of the City Lord's Mansion. He wanted to earn some money and gather some troops to prepare for the three ordinary treasures.
The quest list was a huge screen. Many heroes were standing in the square and looking up.
These heroes were not only human, but also many other races, including the Goblin Hero, the Lizardman Hero, the Werewolf Hero, the Naga Hero, and so on. Strictly speaking, as long as the hero was not an evil race like the Undead or Devil, the City of Glory would not refuse anyone.
This was a world where countless races were mixed together. It was a world where heroes reigned supreme.
At a glance, most of the hundreds of Heroes were Level 0 Heroes. In this world's terms, they were called Hero Apprentices or Trainee Heroes. This meant that they were not real Heroes yet.
The rest were mostly Level One Heroes. Only a few were above Level Two.
In this world, it was extremely difficult to level up a hero. According to the ten-fold increase in points required to level up, Lin Xiao doubted that he would be able to reach level four in a year.
There were many missions on the Mission Board. Some were officially issued, and some were privately issued. The rewards were also varied. However, most of them were resources, and a few of them were troops. Very few of them were treasures, and it seemed that there were very few treasures.
Lin Xiao considered the conditions for challenging the Undead Ruins. He would need a group of elite troops that were level 3 and below. In the eyes of the Templar Faction's troops, there would be a level 1 Spearman that would take up one person's population and a level 2 Archer that would take up two people's population. He would need an elite troop with a population of less than a thousand people.
It was worth noting that the elite Spearmen that Lin Xiao created had reached the level of a level 2 troop. However, they were still only a level 1 troop.
In this world, any troop would accumulate battle experience to level up. No matter how powerful they were, the troop's level would not change.
Therefore, he had to prepare a group of elite troops and think of a way to obtain a few treasures that could increase their battle strength. Only then would he have the confidence to challenge the Undead Ruins.
Lin Xiao scanned the Mission Board a few times. He was not satisfied with most of the missions. However, when he saw that there were a few missions that involved dungeons within his territory, Lin Xiao suddenly realized that he could try to clear dungeons.
Not only could he allow his subordinates to accumulate battle experience, he would also be rewarded for clearing dungeons. At the same time, he could also complete missions. It was killing three birds with one stone.
He immediately made up his mind. He carefully looked at the situation of the dungeons and chose three missions from them.
After that, he went to the Trading Market and spent 500 gold coins to buy a detailed map of Glory City. He spent 1,000 gold coins to buy a Hero's Warhorse from the stables. He spent a total of 12,000 gold coins to buy a set of armor, a one-handed sword, a tower shield, a fine longbow, two quivers, and 2,000 arrows.
He then went to the barracks in the northeast of the city and spent 8,000 gold coins to buy two level 2 Archer Cards. He then used the Tesseract of Fortune to fuse them into a Veteran Archer Card.
He had to admit that anything related to Heroes was expensive. He had spent less than one gold coin when he went to the restaurant with Jia Sanyue. Now, he had spent twenty-three thousand and seven hundred gold coins to purchase a set of Heroes. The difference between the two was staggering.
However, he had to prepare these sets. He could not fight the next battle bare-handed.
Weapons and armor were for Heroes. They had high defense and sharp swords, but they were not treasures.
Warhorses for Heroes had unlimited stamina and could run forever.
The map was very detailed. It included all the information within Glory City, including a small part of the border with Savage City and Swamp City in the south.
Lin Xiao sat on the warhorse and let it trot out of the city. He opened the map to check the locations of the dungeons. However, he was attracted by the three blood-red skulls on the map at first glance. When his gaze fell on the blood-red skull closest to Glory City, he was stunned and full of surprise.
"Isn't this my spawn point?"
He carefully looked at the map again and followed the marked road down. He passed by a tribe of large-eared monsters and entered a forest. In the forest, there was a ruin called Blackwood City. The blood-red skull was on top of it. Below it was marked with the words "Undead Ruins".
"It really is."
He was quite surprised and also a little scared. Fortunately, he was alert and did not fall into it. Otherwise, he would be in trouble.
However, he was also speechless that he was born near a treasure.
"Is this the safest place because the most dangerous place is the most dangerous place?
Or does danger and risk coexist?
Walking out of the Holy Pass again, he quickly summoned more than four hundred spearmen and a hundred veteran archers and went forward along the road.
After a few steps, Lin Xiao suddenly looked at the map and saw two figures passing by on the side of the road. He silently turned back.
These were two contestants. He did not know them, but the difference between outsiders and native heroes of this world was very obvious. Generally, he could tell at a glance.
However, these two people did not seem to notice him. They chatted as they entered the Holy Pass.
"There are more and more people!"
With more people, the competition would naturally become more fierce. He had to hurry.
His legs squeezed the horse's belly and urged it to go faster. His men trotted to keep up.
According to the map, the closest Instance Dungeon was just a few kilometers away. It was called the Battle of Saran. The Instance Dungeon projected a small fragment of the war between Savage City and Swamp City that attacked Glory City more than a thousand years ago.
The dungeon was only limited to level one heroes. The plot was that Savage City and Swamp City each had a hero to besiege a hero called Saran who belonged to Glory City. The two sides fought and Saran died.
After entering the dungeon, they would be assigned to Saran's side and enter as a hero of Glory City. The way to clear the dungeon was naturally to save Saran or defeat the enemy heroes. The final score would be based on performance.
This dungeon had been cleared by the heroes many times. The native heroes had cleared it many times. The strategy could be obtained by checking it. It was very suitable for new heroes to practice for the first time.
The dungeon entrance was very similar to the spearmen camp that was accidentally refreshed before. However, heroes could enter it repeatedly and would not disappear. A high wall surrounded the dungeon entrance like a manor. There was a guard at the door.
When he arrived, three native heroes were chatting at the entrance of the manor. When they saw Lin Xiao riding over, they greeted him.
Although it was a hero's world, there were not many heroes on the street.
The dungeon only restricted heroes below level one to enter. There were no restrictions on the troops that could be brought in. However, the dungeon's difficulty would be adjusted according to the level of the troops under the hero. Lin Xiao's troops were all level one, so the difficulty would not be high.
In addition, if he passed the dungeon, all the subordinates who died in the dungeon would be resurrected. However, if he failed, he would lose half of his subordinates who died in the dungeon.
With a transfer like a teleportation, he appeared in an empty grassland. Behind him was the hazy edge of the dungeon. There was a village a few thousand meters in front of him. At first glance, he could tell that the hero troops of different camps were fighting in the village.
The barbarian heroes' troops were the common level one big-eared monsters and level two wolf riders, as well as a small number of level three half-orc axe-throwers.
The hero of Swamp City was a werewolf hero. His subordinates were level one werewolves, level two lizardman archers, and a small number of level four giant lizards. He did not see the most disgusting level three dragonfly in the swamp.
This werewolf was not an intermediate werewolf, but another species.
Saran, who he needed to save, was a standard human hero. There were about four to five hundred spearmen, more than a hundred archers, and more than a dozen griffins hovering in the sky.
The military strength was not weak, but it was still not enough to fight one against two.
Lin Xiao's appearance on the battlefield quickly attracted the enemy's attention. The barbarian hero quickly mobilized his troops to kill.
"Formation!"
Rows of elite spearmen lined up and put down their long spears.
The elite spearmen did not need to be commanded at all. At this level, they were not as dull as the recruits. Not only were their combat power stronger, but their reactions were also more flexible. They could already understand and carry out some simple orders.
It was said that when the troop class was upgraded to the elite level, their combat experience, skills, and wisdom would surpass the real intelligent life. They could already be the hero's deputy. Some small-scale battles could be handed over to the deputy to command. The hero did not need to personally command every battle.
This barbarian had about five to six hundred big-eared monsters, about one hundred and fifty wolf riders, and more than twenty half-orc axe-throwers. On paper, his strength was stronger than Lin Xiao. In addition, the barbarian hero had always advocated attacking. When he was stronger, his first choice was naturally to attack.
