Chapter 463: The battle between red-spotted flying ants and poisonous insects
Judging from the Lingdao Alliance's first comprehensive patrol mission allocation, some locations with abundant resources and high security during the initial exploration process have basically become the possessions of some famous sects.
Moreover, the Jindan monks who are responsible for containment and support in each large area are basically from various sects and families. This also means that once danger is encountered, the chance of Zhao Shoushou and other casual cultivators being rescued is not great.
The first division of tasks is also the most fruitful time. It is basically equivalent to the division of spheres of influence. This is also the fundamental reason for the reluctance of monks like Zhao Shoushou and other casual cultivators.
Unfortunately, after all, the arm could not twist the thigh. Without the support of the high-level monks, there was obviously no other way except bowing the head and accepting fate.
Under the shock of the absolute strength of many Jindan monks, even if they were reluctant, the ten monks of the 18th team had to set off according to the time.
The resentment in Zhao Shoushou's heart existed, but there was no expression on the surface. Deep down in his heart, he had some other plans.
Task allocation is naturally important, and the establishment of patrol tasks and patrol lines is also necessary. However, the Spirit Island Alliance has not stipulated that all monks must be trapped in a fixed position.
In addition, this large subsidence area is relatively remote in comparison, which does not mean that there are no opportunities and resources.
Since it can be the habitat of a large number of poisonous insects and beasts, there must be some precious resources here. As the most powerful being in this area, Zhao Shoushou is not without opportunities to obtain more opportunities.
The lesser of two evils, without enough strength to resist, all he can do now is to do his best to tap into the existing resources and potential.
"Everyone, the sinking area is ahead. According to the order of the Spirit Island Alliance, we need to establish a patrol line at one third of the area. All sea beasts that attempt to cross the patrol line will be killed." Zhao Shoushou said very calmly.
, seems to be confident, and the difficulty of completing it is not that big.
In fact, under the situation of limited resources, the competition for living space is quite cruel, and the sea beasts occupying this place will obviously not give up easily.
The monks are also using this stupid method to chip away at the vitality of the sea monsters bit by bit. At the same time, they are also searching for the real factors that may become the core of the sea monster tide and completely destroying them.
"This piece of mud is not as barren as we imagined. Lao Hou has already noticed the existence of strong spiritual power. It is hard to say that I have made some good gains in this seemingly plain mud." After arriving at the sinking
After entering the district, Hou Rongfa was extremely excited, as if he had forgotten all the previous perseverances.
"Although the spiritual power here is slightly inferior to the core area of Lingdao, it is still almost the same. Moreover, the number of sea beasts entrenched here must be much weaker, and it can be regarded as a good patrol area."
"Compared to some teams assigned to patrol areas with ferocious sea beasts, we are already quite lucky. Being able to save one's life during the tide of sea beasts is already a stroke of luck. Why are there so many requirements?"
The monks of Team 10 expressed their satisfaction one after another, as if this sinking area, which had been abandoned like worn-out shoes yesterday, had instantly become a hot spot for everyone to compete for.
"Since fellow Taoists have no objections, we will wait for the first patrol to officially begin. Mr. and Mr. Hou will each lead a small team and divide the patrol line from the left and right sides to the middle. All trophies belong to individuals, but they must not be coveted for trophies.
As a result, the establishment of the patrol line will be affected at all. If the task cannot be completed on time, the punishment from the Spirit Island Alliance will be unbearable for little people like us." When he said this, his language was unprecedentedly serious.
The Spirit Island Alliance is not a charity. The bounty list is a reward for the monks for their efforts in hunting sea beasts. There will certainly be punishment after the mission fails.
The establishment of the patrol line is the first task, and it is also a key step for the monks to take root here. The punishment after failure is also quite cruel.
If they cannot complete the establishment of patrol lines within their respective patrol areas within the fixed required time, all monks will immediately be removed from their positions as island owners and incorporated into the vanguard battalion, where they will need to complete at least ten assault missions.
The so-called vanguard camp is actually a cannon fodder camp. All their missions are narrow escape or death missions. Let alone ten times. Those who can come back alive in one time are only a handful of lucky ones. Basically, the only ending of the vanguard camp is
Just fallen.
The monks present obviously couldn't bear this kind of punishment. After Zhao Shoushou's reminder, the expressions on the faces of the monks became more serious, and they paid much more attention to the task.
After all, the main purpose of gathering so many monks in the Spirit Island Alliance is not to harvest elixirs, but ultimately to kill the tide of sea beasts.
The first patrol mission started soon. Under the leadership of two late-stage foundation-building monks, Zhao Shoushou and Hou Rongfa, they quickly moved towards the unexplained subsidence area.
The poisonous beasts and insects that live here are obviously very keen on the monk's aura. Before they get close, about a hundred finger-sized black mosquitoes with a pair of black wings and exuding a fierce aura have appeared one after another.
Of course, these little guys living on the edge of the subsidence area are not very strong. Their strength is about the first level, which is equivalent to the Qi refining period of a monk.
Even if it were a sea beast with some intelligence, it would not attack them regardless of the obvious difference in strength. Unfortunately, these poisonous insects only have some ferocious aura left.
I saw Zhao Shoushou waving his hands, and more than twice the number of red-dot flying ants swarmed out. These little guys who had not appeared in battle for a long time, after the mother worm was promoted to the second-level low-grade, some of the strong ones have been promoted to the second-level low-grade.
, most of them are the pinnacle of first-order top-grade ones.
Using spiritual insects against poisonous insects, with the dual advantages of strength and quantity, there was no possibility of defeat. They quickly had the upper hand. During the fight between the two sides, a large number of poisonous insects fell to the ground and soon became red-dot flying.
Ants store part of their food.
Obviously, with the advantage of strength, some poisonous insects in the periphery that used to win by numbers have lost their biggest support and cannot cause too much trouble to the monks of the 18th team.
After years of accumulation, the number of spiritual insects in the ant nest has reached tens of thousands, of which about a hundred are only at the second level of low-grade strength, which can fully support Zhao Shoushou's patrol in this sinking area.
Even the monks of the 18th team only need to hunt down the strongest ones one by one in the first round, and later rely on these red-dot flying ants to serve as an early warning.
Of course, the two second-level low-grade cormorants that had been hiding in the spirit beast bag for a long time were also ready to attack, and each poisonous insect turned into delicacies in their belly.
