Although it is red equipment, it is no worse than other gold equipment.
"No matter what it is, please be careful, it should be right ahead..."
As Zhou Zhenghao walked forward, he told everyone that caution is necessary at all times.
But what surprises everyone is that there is no boss here...,
There is no Lord of the Abyss,
There is no Archmage of the Abyss,
Not even a monster...,
There is only a small square similar to the platform on the first floor, with an identical stone platform erected on it.
Zhou Zhenghao did not dare to go forward and ordered everyone to stay where they were. When asked about the two-way situation,
"When you were on the first level, where did the four-armed bear from the abyss come out?..."
"He was squatting in front of the stone platform. As soon as we got here, he rushed over to us. We fought with him and killed him. Then he burst out of a box..."
Shuangqiang was also confused.
"Then why are there no monsters here?..."
No one else could give him an answer to Zhou Zhenghao's question. In the end, he couldn't help but walked over cautiously.
Nothing happened. There was a towering mountain wall ahead, blocking the whole place into a dead end. Next to the mountain wall, there was indeed a black iron gate.
There was a heavy lock on the door. Zhou Zhenghao went up and kicked it twice.
A prompt box flashes.
[The door leading to the third floor of the Black Tower requires a door key, and violence cannot be released.]
Sure enough, but where is the key?
Zhou Zhenghao walked to the stone platform again. The stone platform was the same as the stone prompts on the first floor. It also reminded him that using a restoration stone, he could restore all the monsters in the second floor of the black tower.
Of course he can't use it now,
Restoration stone.
He has only cleared half of the monsters now. He has not yet explored the large area on the right side of the lake, and he doesn't know what kind of monsters are inside. Could it be the Steeljaw Beast?
"Lord!..., there is indeed no boss guarding here..."
Several people searched the place carefully. In fact, there was no place hiding monsters at all.
"Is this the case, Lord? The boss left on his own..."
Han Xingfa had a sudden idea.
"What did you say?..."
Han Xingfa's words made the double gunner glare at him, thinking that the young man was still joking at this time.
"I mean, does that boss wander around? Maybe he went to the other side of the lake..."
As he spoke, Han Xing pointed to the side of the lake that they had not explored.
There is a forest there, and there are several hills and huge stone forests next to the forest. The terrain is relatively complex.
"That's also possible. Let's go over there and have a look..."
Zhou Zhenghao has no choice. There is no boss here, so he can't kill him.
If you can't kill it, you won't get the key to the third floor...,
This can only explore the other side of the lake. He feels that what Han Xingfa said makes sense. No one has stipulated that the boss must wait for you here.
It is normal for people to drink some water when they go out for a walk...
They walked along the right side, which was the entire circle. If they walked over again, they could return to the exit.
I didn't go far when I heard from behind the stone forest,
"Pulling!..."
There was a sound of flapping wings.
A group of Doom Crows flew out. It looked like there were more than a dozen of them.
There’s nothing to say, just kill them. The attack power of these Doom Crows is stronger than the Death Vultures, and their health bar has reached 8000.
This is an air unit, and with such thick blood, it is already very powerful.
These guys are fast and their attacks are powerful. If you are not careful, you will be injured. After all, the shields among the dozen of them cannot protect everyone.
Fortunately, the people Zhou Zhenghao brought were all of a higher level, and when he came from the left side of the lake just now, he killed nearly 600 evil beasts, and almost everyone was promoted to one level.
Now even the dual-gunner Han Xingfa and the one-eyed girl Sun Shuang have reached level 15.
And he himself has exceeded level 16 and will soon be level 17.
The remaining militiamen are all above level ten. It is perfectly possible to deal with a dozen Doom Crows in the sky.
The Doom Crow is mainly a physical attack, and its attached skill is a passive critical hit reduction.
This is also the origin of his bad luck's name.
As long as these dozen Doom Crows fly over, everyone will basically be unable to hit the golden critical hit number.
Zhou Zhenghao led the people to shoot arrows together, and the guns with their double throats also fired one after another. Because there were doomed crows flying in the air, even Zhou Zhenghao's bows and arrows inevitably missed the target, but not many, and it was within a tolerable range.
The fireball flew out of Han Xingfa's hand. It was no longer red. The middle of the fireball was orange, but there was a circle of black flames around it. This was the dark effect of the Dark Staff.
It is more powerful than ordinary fireballs. If the ordinary fireball can deal one or two hundred damage, then the current dark fireball can deal two or three hundred damage.
These dozen or so bad luck crows also hit the iron plate this time, and were beaten in the air and screamed. Feathers flew.
Each Doom Crow is like a crashed plane, falling headfirst to the ground and unable to survive just by the force of the impact.
Throwing down the gold coins and the box, it turned into a stream of light.
"Lord Doomwuwu has given me a lot of feathers..."
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The double gunner is now responsible for picking up loot. Because he has a backpack, he can open it directly after picking it up. Some basic supplies are stacked in his backpack. If it is full, he can directly put the items in the backpack into the warehouse.
inside,
These are all convenient features that are unlocked after leveling up.
"That's good. If they have more feathers, can they also be equipped with recurve bows?..."
"What kind of recurve bow does the lord use? If there are enough feather arrows, he can directly process the moon bow from the processing table. That bow has a stronger attack power and uses feather arrows..."
"Of course, the properties of that bow are incomparable to yours, the Golden Pharaoh Bow..."
"I think it's okay. Let's explore forward and see how many bad luck birds there are here. At the same time, you can do some calculations..."
"OK!……"
The two gunmen agreed repeatedly. Zhou Zhenghao led the people forward and slowly approached the woods.
As they walked inside, they discovered that there were really a lot of bad luck birds, attacking them in groups from time to time...
There were more than twenty or thirty at a time, and most of them were injured. Fortunately, they now brought enough blood-replenishing medicine.
After they walked into the woods, they discovered that the trees in this forest were very tall and seemed to be quite old...,
But in Zhou Zhenghao's eyes, these trees are just wood.
"This place is good. When we free up the manpower, we can cut wood here. I think we can also cut stones on the rocks outside..."
"We don't lack lords. There's no need to bother coming here to kill them. We can't use those who just kill monsters and explode..."
Shuangqiang laughed and disagreed, but Zhongzhou Zhenghao directly posted a text to him,
"Look at this..."
[Wooden fence, consumes 100 wood per meter, 50 animal hides, 10 iron and 10 steel,]
"It's not much, ah!..."
As soon as Shuangqiang finished speaking, he suddenly let out an exclamation.
"Per meter?..."
"Yes, it takes so much material to build a 1m wooden fence. Think about how long a wooden fence needs to be built outside our territory. Do you still think we have sufficient basic materials?..."
"If you calculate it this way,..."
Shuangqianghou counted on his fingers for a long time. Their original territory defense had passed the 13th monster attack, which meant that the territory was originally 100m, and after each monster attack, there was an extra 1m, which was a radius of 113m.
The circumference is calculated to be at least more than 700 meters.
This calculation adds up to more than 70,000 yuan for the wood alone.
This is too stressful for them now.
After Shuangqianghou calculated this number, he was shocked. The wood in the warehouse was not even enough for 10,000 yuan.
"See? With the current basic resources, you can't even build one-fifth of the wall. If you don't build the wall, monsters can attack our territory at will in 36 hours. By then, we won't have any
defensive means..."
This is Zhou Zhenghao's biggest headache at the moment. As soon as he said it, Shuangqiang Hou felt heavy.
"Then Lord, I'll ask Wang Shi and the others to quickly organize people to cut wood and mine stones..."
"Let's wait and see. Don't worry. I have other ways. Maybe we can build the wall without cutting wood..."
"How is that possible? Lord, we don't even have enough wood for 10,000 yuan now, let alone other materials. How can we do it if we don't cut it?..."
"I have my own idea. Let's clean up this place first and then talk about it..."
Zhou Zhenghao is not completely bluffing. He actually has a plan in his mind that can solve the problem of his basic resources. However, whether it can be implemented still needs to be tested.
So he didn't say it in advance.
After walking into the woods, the number of bad luck crows not only did not decrease, but increased a lot. When they came out, there were thirty or forty of them, causing Zhou Zhenghao to encounter several encounters one after another.
Although they were injured, they still gained a lot of experience and feathers.
They had just finished dealing with a group of Doom Crows and were about to move forward when Zhou Zhenghao suddenly called out to everyone.
"Wait a minute, look over there!..."
He pointed to the top of a big tree, and everyone looked at his finger for a long time, not knowing what he wanted to say to everyone.
"Lord, this is just a tree. There is nothing interesting about it. There are no monsters either!..."
"No, look at it above. Do you have a bird's nest?..."
After hearing Zhou Zhenghao's tip, they discovered that there was indeed a large bird's nest on the top of the tree.
Originally, this bird's nest was 20 or 30 meters above the ground, and it was on the top of a leafy tree.
Zhou Zhenghao couldn't find it, but more than half of the branches of this tree were withered. He didn't know why, so there were only sparse leaves on it.
Only then did Zhou Zhenghao see the bird's nest through the gap between the trees.
"In this case, can we go up and have a look!..."
Shuangqiang suddenly became interested and was a little eager to try, but Zhou Zhenghao glanced at him and said,
"Which of you is more agile? Go up and have a look. Is there anything in the bird's nest?..."
"I'll go,..."
At this time, a militiaman holding a crossbow behind him immediately raised his hand.
"Lord, let me go. I'm good at digging out bird's nests. When I was in Silkie City, I liked climbing high and low. This height is not difficult for me..."
"ha!……"
Zhou Shenghao looked at him and sighed in his heart. There were so many people, and there were all kinds of talents. Some of them really knew how to climb trees.
"
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Then go up and be careful. Although there is no bad luck up there, be careful, there are other poisonous snakes and other things on the trees..."
"Don't worry, lord!..."
This guy said that he would carry the crossbow directly behind his back.
"Bah!..."
He spat on his hands and rubbed them together a few times. It looked like he was really professional in grabbing the tree that only two people could hug.
"Click, rub, rub,..."
He actually climbed up. His movements looked like those of an ape, and he looked like an expert at first sight.
"I didn't expect this kid to climb a tree so fast..."
The two guns standing nearby were also amazed.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the militiaman quickly climbed to the top of the tree, fixed his body on the branch with one hand and one leg, stretched out his other hand and reached into the bird's nest.
Fumbling around.
Then I saw him take something, put it in his pocket, and then climbed down the branch.
It seemed that this kid had gained something. Soon he got down to the ground. During the whole process, his face didn't turn red, his heart didn't beat, and he didn't get angry. He looked relaxed.
"Lord, do you see what I found?..."
When Zhou Zhenghao looked at this guy, he actually took out two bird eggs from his clothes. These two bird eggs were not small, almost the same as duck eggs. Considering the figure of the Doom House, these eggs did fit their status.
"Just two eggs?..."
"No, the lord still has this..."
Then he took out a dozen feathers from his pocket.
"I'm just telling you, how could there be no feathers in the Doom Crow's nest? If they live here, they will probably shed their feathers..."
"In that case, Lord, there are so many Doom Houses here, there must be a lot of bird's nests. If we have enough manpower, we can search them. They are a lot of supplies. By the way, can these bird eggs be used?
A cloud of evil hatched out..."
Shuangqiang looked at the bird eggs with some envy.
Zhou Zhenghao was also speechless,
"I don't know if you can try it. If it hatches, see if it attacks you, and maybe it can be your pet. But if you bring this thing with you as a pet, then your attack
There was no critical hit. I don’t know if it’s cost-effective or not…”
Zhou Zhenghao looked at the bird egg and shook his head. He would never want it. Even if he kept the white-eyed wolf, the three-headed frost cat would be better than this thing.
"Lord, if you don't want it, I'll just treat him as a toy. The worst I can do is not take him with me when I fight. When I go fishing, let him stay with me..."
The two spears were like a muscle, and he caught the bird's eggs and put them both in his pocket.
Zhou Zhenghao made fun of him after seeing it,
"You have to hold it in your arms and use your body temperature to hatch the eggs. You don't even understand such basic common sense..."
"is that so?……"
Shuangqiang was a little disbelieving. He looked at the other people and got a positive answer. They all nodded fiercely.
"Then I'll put it inside my clothes. Put it here on my chest..."
Shuangqiang hesitantly put the two eggs into his arms.
"Hey, be careful, don't crush the eggs..."
The manatee nearby was also very interested.
"Brother Hou, if you can really come out, can you give me one?..."
"Then I can just give you a bird egg now. Why do I have to work so hard to hatch it and give it to you? Are you beautiful?..."
The double gunner rolled his eyes at him, obviously not wanting to give him one.
Manatee touched his head. He didn't need this critical attack. It would be good if he could really raise a bad luck crow. Alas. Although this bad luck crow is completely black, just like a black crow,
But if it were your own pet, it might look pretty good.
After this small episode, everyone continued to search the woods,
The further Zhou Zhenghao searched, the more nervous he became, and the more he told everyone to be careful, because he was always afraid that the boss would run out from somewhere.
But what he never expected was that the entire forest had been cleared, and nearly 800 Doom Crows had been killed.
But the boss really didn’t even have a shadow,
They returned to the path that led to the second floor of the black tower, where Zhou Zhenghao was in a daze.
What should I do? I walked around and found no boss. I can't go up to the third floor. There are still some conditions that I haven't met.
"Lord, what should we do?..."
"What should I do if there is nothing? Everyone is tired. There were a lot of monsters killed in this circle. Let's go back and have a rest..."
"No, Lord, it's too far to go back to the entire first floor of the Black Tower. Let's rest here. Anyway, the monsters here have been cleared. The path has been cleared now. A few of us will sleep here.
Forget it..."
The two gunmen immediately suggested it, and everyone else nodded in agreement.
Indeed, running back and forth is just for rest. If you want to sleep, there is really no need to go back and forth. In addition, they all carry food in their backpacks. These foods can be stacked, which is enough to feed a dozen militiamen.
Seeing this, Zhou Zhenghao nodded,
"Then you can rest here. I need to go back. Well, there are still things in the territory that I need to deal with..."
"Okay, Lord, let's go..."
This time, Shuangqiang was very happy to bid farewell to Zhou Zhenghao.
Zhou Zhenghao looked at him with a strange expression,
"Shuangqiang Hou, are you hiding something from me? Why do you want me to leave so quickly?..."
"Lord, you don't know, he just wants to fish..."
