However, less than five minutes after the lizardman hero entered the treasure house, Lin Xiao's figure appeared in front of the treasure house again. Seeing that someone had already entered the treasure house, he chuckled.
It wasn't that he was smart enough to realize that the lizardman was fooling him. No matter how good he was, he couldn't tell what expression the lizardman had on his lizard face that was covered in scales. It was just simple logical thinking.
The lizardman was indeed good at acting. Previously, he really thought that the lizardman had left helplessly, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that something was wrong. He came back to take a look and found that there was indeed a problem.
If the lizardman was fooled and then entered, it would definitely be an official attack on the treasure house.
He quietly squatted outside the treasure house and waited. Although he didn't know what trump cards the lizardman hero had, he was sure that he wouldn't be able to deal with it in a short time.
Fortunately, this place was deep in the forest, and there were very few heroes nearby. He didn't encounter any other heroes.
It wasn't until the fourth hour and fifteen minutes later that the light of the treasure house suddenly began to dim. The transparent stream of light shrank inwards, collapsed, and began to become illusory.
With a thought from Lin Xiao, his subordinates stepped forward and surrounded the treasure house tightly.
A minute later, a white light shot out and transformed into a wretched Lizardman Hero and less than a hundred soldiers. Lin Xiao had already taken out his bow when the white light shot out. An iron arrow was nocked on the bow, and the arrow was fully drawn. The moment the Lizardman Hero appeared, Lin Xiao shot the arrow.
The lizardman hero was quite strong. He instantly reacted and grabbed a werewolf guard. The wooden shield in his hand moved forward, and the iron arrow pierced through the shield. However, this obstruction gave him time to dodge.
"It's you?"
It was obvious that the lizardman hero was very surprised. He looked around at his remaining soldiers and the Griffins that were circling in the sky to attack the remaining Dragonflies. There were elite spearmen everywhere, and he knew that he was no match.
He reached out and said, "I surrender. According to the rules between heroes, I'm willing to pay the ransom."
Lin Xiao stopped his subordinates and said, "You can do it.
I need you to swear in the name of the God of the Marsh that you will hand over everything you obtained in the treasure house and pay a treasure to redeem your life and the lives of your subordinates. "
The Lizardman Hero had an ugly expression on his face, but he was the meat on the chopping block. His life was in the other party's hands, and there was no room for negotiation.
Then, one by one, the spoils of war from the stone man's treasure house were gathered and placed in front of him.
He swore in the name of the God of Quagmire that unless he wanted to strip the Hero's Power, he would never dare to disobey or play any tricks.
He definitely wouldn't have any more experience or credit points, so there was no way he could return them. Right now, Lin Xiao had 50,000 gold coins, 500 pieces of wood and ores, five units of crystals and gems, five Stone Golem Cards, one Iron Golem Card, one Stone Golem Nest Heart, and one Wind Serpent Feather.
Among them, Ironmen were the rare advanced troop class of Stonemen. Any troop class that had accumulated enough experience to level up to Elite would have a chance to become a rare troop class.
For example, a Spearman could be upgraded to a Halberd Soldier, an Archer could be upgraded to a Sharpshooter with the Rapid Fire special effect, a Gryphon could be upgraded to a Royal Gryphon equipped with an exclusive Gryphon Armor, and an Ironman was the rare evolution of a Stoneman.
An advanced troop class was equivalent to an Elite troop class, and was generally stronger than a regular troop class of the same level. The next level up would also be an Elite troop class.
The Stone Golem Heart was a Level 1 treasure obtained from the treasure house. Its effect was to increase the Hero's subordinates' magic resistance by 10%.
This … could only be said to be acceptable.
The Wind Serpent Feather was a treasure that the Lizardman Hero had used to buy his life. Its effect was to increase Dexterity by 1, which was quite good.
According to the synthesis formula, four Stone Golem Cards were converted into an Elite Stone Golem.
Then, he loaded the Stone Golem Nest Heart into the second slot. A Level 1 Stone Golem Nest could produce 20 per week.
He spent 30,000 gold, 50 pieces of wood, and 100 pieces of ore to upgrade the Stone Golem Barracks to Level 2, increasing the production from 20 to 40.
After that, he ran out of money.
A production of 40 per week could only be said to be acceptable. It was enough for personal use.
I stored two hundred Elite Spearmen and one hundred Elite Archers into my storage space, and added an Elite Stoneman Card that took up four hundred people. This thing had high HP, high Defense, and high Magic Resistance, so it was very useful as a meat shield.
After sorting out the loot, Lin Xiao had half of the Elite Stone Golems walk at the front. The Elite Stone Golems were slightly slower than the Spearmen, but with the Wind Serpent Feather, they were about the same speed as before.
The deaths of Yi Lai and the other three caused a huge uproar outside the ruins, but inside the ruins, there were no waves. As time passed, more and more players entered the ruins and appeared near Glory City. In particular, more and more players who had descended with their real bodies appeared. In order to compete for various resources, they fought and formed groups.
A large number of elites who were interested in competing for treasures or rankings left for other places. Even more people submitted to these strong players and formed groups to divide up the resources near the Holy Pass.
For example, the quests that refreshed every day, the monsters that spawned in the wild, and so on.
In particular, the various treasure chests that had a small chance of spawning were the focus of their competition. Every time a treasure chest was discovered, it would lead to a fight. Players would often be eliminated in the competition.
Of course, the six dungeons that could be repeated didn't need to be mentioned. These were already monopolized by the largest groups. If others wanted to enter, they would have to pay a certain amount of resources.
This situation didn't only happen in Glory City. It happened in the other cities where players could descend. There were fights almost every day, and players were eliminated every day. In the short three months since the start of the first season, more than 5,000 people had been eliminated.
At the same time, when the first player became a Level 2 Hero, the Hero Level Leaderboard and the Individual Strength Leaderboard were opened.
Ignoring the Level Leaderboard, there were only a few Level 2 Heroes, so there were only a few on the leaderboard.
On the Individual Strength Leaderboard, Lin Xiao found that he was ranked 1,237.
He didn't care about this ranking because it only took into account the individual Hero's level, treasures, strategies, magic, units, and so on. It didn't take into account some of the troops and cards stored in the storage space.
Most importantly, it included all the players who had descended with their real bodies. Therefore, his avatar wouldn't be ranked high in the early stages. Even Wu Zhonglin's current ranking was estimated to be in the top 1,000.
Therefore, at this stage, this ranking could only be used as a reference. Moreover, although he was ranked 1,237, his actual combat strength was about the same as that of the Level 2 Heroes and the players who had descended with their real bodies. Perhaps a small change would cause his ranking to rise greatly. Therefore, he wasn't in a hurry at all.
According to the rules, every three months, the strength of the creatures in the ruins would increase by one level.
In the past, Lin Xiao wasn't too sure what this level meant, but now he knew.
"F * ck!"
He scrambled out of the pit and jumped more than ten meters high. He grabbed a Gryphon's claw and shook it violently. The Gryphon flapped its wings and flew into the air.
A thick tentacle covered in suction cups reached out from the pit and grabbed at the air. A few pikemen loyally pounced on it, but they were crushed into pieces by the tentacle and retracted back.
He was carried away by the Gryphon and escaped from the black forest. He flew several kilometers in one breath and landed at the edge of the black forest and the green forest.
As soon as he landed, he quickly took out a hundred Ironmen, a hundred elite spearmen, and two hundred archers to replenish his losses. Together with the remaining Gryphon Archers, he had exactly one thousand people.
Many of his subordinates gathered around him. After he breathed a sigh of relief, he began to curse.
Originally, he had fought his way to the bottom of the pit and was about to kill the tentacle monster. He didn't expect that just as the three months were up, the sudden strengthening broke the balance and caused him to collapse. He was almost completely wiped out.
Fortunately, he had accumulated enough strength in the past two months. Even if he was completely wiped out, he had enough strength to quickly replenish his forces. Otherwise, it would have been difficult to return to the depths of the forest.
Two months ago, after he snatched the loot from the Stone Man's treasure house from the Lizardman Hero, he explored the depths of the forest.
Although he didn't encounter any treasure houses, he would occasionally encounter some monsters that respawned or treasure chests guarded by a large number of monsters. The loot was not bad. In addition, with the constant production of the two barracks, not only was he able to hold on, but he had also accumulated a group of troops.
After two months of exploration, Lin Xiao was still at level one. He had to admit that leveling up was too difficult. He had only accumulated 70,000 EXP, which was 20,000 EXP away from the 100,000 EXP needed to level up.
If it was so difficult for him to level up in the wild, it would be even more difficult for the players who stayed near the cities of the various factions. At this stage, there were probably less than ten players who had reached level two.
After resting for a while at the border between the green forest and the black forest, Lin Xiao once again mounted his horse and returned to where he came from. He had to kill that thing. Even if he had to suffer a great loss, he had to obtain that golden treasure chest.
The treasure chests were simple wooden chests, iron treasure chests, bronze treasure chests, silver treasure chests, and gold treasure chests. As for the highest quality treasure chest he had seen so far, it was this golden treasure chest. It was guarded by a Lord ranked Boss. It was the monster with long tentacles.
Although the monster was very strong and had just been strengthened, Lin Xiao was still confident that he could kill it.
After all, this wasn't a Dungeon Boss. A Dungeon Boss would be at full HP after respawning. This unknown tentacle monster had been tortured by him for a long time, and he had already chopped off several of its tentacles. Killing it again wouldn't be as difficult as before.
He led his subordinates back into the black forest and arrived in front of the huge pit. With a wave of his hand, a dozen or so Ironmen walked with heavy and stiff steps to the entrance of the pit. They walked in without hesitation.
Then, the remaining Elite Spearmen walked in one after another. Finally, the Archers walked in one after another.
This pit was a huge underground space. It was the nest of the unknown tentacle monster. The golden treasure chest was embedded in the tentacle monster's body. If he wanted to obtain it, he had to kill it. Otherwise, he would have long since used the method of seduction to steal the treasure chest.
Previously, he had tried using this method to steal two treasure chests. One of them had given him 30,000 gold coins, while the other had given him 10,000 EXP. This had greatly increased his EXP.
