For the next whole day, Shen Yi was preparing to deal with the Lich King Arthas. Shen Yi spent almost all of his honor points on those honor items he purchased earlier, but the task of wiping out the fishmen allowed him to earn more. Four hundred points.
Shen Yi spent all these camp honors unambiguously, but this time, he no longer used them to buy those treasures, but all of them were used to buy mana recovery potions. A medium bottle of mana recovery potion can restore 50 points. Spirit requires forty points of camp honor. Even if he spent all his energy, Shen Yi only bought eleven bottles.
Shen Yi felt a headache because of this, but he had no choice but to do so.
Early the next morning, Shen Yi brought Wen Wen, Hong Lang, Fatty, Pandora, and the Manniu Team to the scheduled assembly point. The Dragon Tooth Team, Eternal Night, and King Kong Zhou Yiyu were already waiting here.
Four teams gathered together, including six Broken Blades, six Barbarian Bulls, seven Dragon Fangs, nine Eternal Nights, plus Pandora, a total of twenty-nine people, which can be regarded as an unprecedented strength and a prosperous lineup.
A lineup like this is more than enough to wipe out a small country on earth.
Of course, after all, they had to deal with the Lich King Arthas, who was already at the level of a demon god, so no matter how grand it was, it couldn't be too grand.
You must know that this time is not like when they fought against Diavolo. At that time, Diavolo was an incomplete body and did not have the ability to be resurrected. This time, there was no girl in white to help them cheat.
Of course, today they are no longer at the same level as in the Dark World. Regardless of whether we are the enemy or ourselves, the strength of both sides has made a huge leap forward.
Because of this, the focus of this battle is completely different from the last time we fought Diavolo.
In the original battle with Diavolo, Shen Yi and the others only wanted to kill Diavolo. It can be said that they did anything and used various methods in an endless stream. They spent all their money on the bottom of the box. In the end, they died for Diavolo. As a result, there were heavy casualties. The sacred sanctuary, several bottles of high-grade blood, and even the souls were all consumed. This kind of sacrifice is absolutely unacceptable to the adventurers.
In a sense, Shen Yi's profits are not as much as his losses.
Everyone fights bosses to make money. If you do it forcefully like this, even if you succeed, it will be meaningless. In essence, it is not worth emulating.
In fact, although the Demon God is powerful, most of the battles with the Demon God in the city end with the adventurer winning, and the death penalty usually does not exceed 10% of the number of participants, which is already acceptable to the adventurers. Risk ceiling.
Further up, no one can be sure whether it is them who died.
Therefore, this time the battle must be back on the right path, with the premise of reducing casualties and consumption.
Shen Yi once saw the battle between Yunhai Team Zhou Hao and the Demon God on the fourth difficulty level. At that time, the two teams, with fourteen people working together, destroyed a Demon God without any damage to themselves.
After all, Shen Yi and the others are on the third level of difficulty. If they can't compare in terms of quality, they can only make up for it in terms of quantity.
At this moment, Shen Yi looked at everyone: "Since everyone is here, I won't say anything nonsense. What we have to deal with this time is a demon god level existence. Even if it is just a new demon god, it is not easy to deal with it. Everyone Are you all ready?"
"Of course, as long as your information is correct." Lao Meng still had that insidious tone. Listening to him speak, it was as if there was a cold wind blowing around him. Those who didn't know thought that this kid was interested in Shen Yi. What's the point of hostility? In fact, that's what he said.
"The source of the information is absolutely reliable, but that doesn't mean we can be careless. Although Arthas is the new Demon God, he also has four souls, which means we have to eliminate him at least five times..."
The most troublesome thing about fighting against demon gods is that they can keep resurrecting and are almost unkillable. Don't think that you can kill twice if you can kill them once. Some things are really not that simple.
If he had not communicated with Zhou Hao of the Yunhai Team, Shen Yi would not have imagined that the battle with the demon god could be so cruel and torturous.
For adventurers with difficulty level 4, it is never difficult to kill the demon god for the first time. Everyone used all kinds of special skills and took turns to bombard it. Even if it had 100,000 lives, it was still killed.
The problem is that with the endless resurrection of demon gods, some demon gods have even become more powerful, but the adventurers' spiritual power has begun to dry up.
That's right, mental power, which was once not too troublesome for adventurers, has become their biggest bottleneck in the battle against the devil.
In the past, a battle could often be resolved in just ten minutes, and mental strength was never the factor that restricted everyone. But to deal with the devil, even if you kill him once, it will take at least ten to twenty minutes.
With the resurrection of the devil again and again, it is quite normal for a battle to last for several hours. The adventurer's physical strength may still be able to support such high-intensity consumption, but the mental power is no longer able to be used. As a result, in the middle and late stages, everyone Often they don't have enough energy to release their skills, so they can only fight the boss head-on with punches and kicks, and drink medicine to defeat them. The results can be imagined.
Many adventurers who failed in the Demon God War were defeated because of the lack of successor combat power.
Shen Yi made a rough estimate. If all the adventurers present consumed all their mental energy, it would be almost enough to kill a demon with a life of about 30,000.
But then, with the first resurrection of the target, the thirty adventurers will fall into a state of having no skills available.
For this reason, Shen Yi prepared a large amount of potions to restore mental power, and also asked Wei Na and Lao Meng to prepare them. Even so, due to the limited quantity of these potions, these mental power restoration potions were not enough to sustain a long-lasting battle. Scale battle.
"...So, in the battle with Arthas, we must not exhaust all our energy at the beginning. We must combine effectively and extend the fighting time as much as possible. My plan is to use three hours. Time to resolve this battle."
When the willpower reaches 100, one point of mental strength is restored every minute.
Three hours is basically enough for an adventurer with high willpower to recover two rounds of spirit during the battle, which is extremely important for later battles.
Wei Na immediately said: "But this way, Arthas will have more room to play. The longer the time, the higher the attack damage he will cause to us, and the more recovery treatment we need."
The reason why spiritual power is not enough is not only because it is used to kill the enemy, but more importantly to heal oneself. Assuming that each adventurer has 70 points of spirit, and each ten points of spirit causes 300 damage, thirty adventurers can take care of it. It can cause damage equivalent to 60,000 points. The reason why it is said to be just enough to kill a demon with a life force of about 30,000 is because there are a considerable number of skills used for assistance, defense and treatment.
However, as time goes by, the number of Alsace's attacks will inevitably increase. As a result, everyone's mental power will have time to recover, but the auxiliary consumption will also increase significantly.
Shen Yi replied: "So we need a lot of cannon fodder that can help us absorb damage."
As he spoke, he looked at Lao Meng and then at Pandora.
Lao Meng chuckled: "Eight hundred undead warriors who are more elite than last time. As long as you can get Frostmourne to me, I can use them as you wish."
Pandora's expression changed slightly.
She finally understood why Shen Yi brought her here.
In fact, the moment she learned that they were going to kill the Lich King, she was really shocked. Logically speaking, there was no way she would be allowed to be an untrusted outsider to participate in such an important action. , but Piao Tian Literature Network tactics, Pandora finally realized his role.
Her Demon Gate can continuously summon demon assistants, which is the best skill to use as cannon fodder to attract damage.
In Shen Yi's plan, Lao Meng's undead warriors, Pandora's Devil's Gate, Eternal Night's summoning of the beasts, his own T850 Terminator, and even airborne troops and Transformers if necessary, will all be used. As cannon fodder to attract fire.
This plan was basically the safest plan Shen Yi could think of. Unlike the last time when he wanted to kill Diavolo at all costs, this time all his ideas were based on reducing casualties.
There is no other way. The people participating in the operation this time are all our own people. Since we can't find a scapegoat, we can only use summoned life instead.
"Basically, the plan is like this. Twenty-nine people are divided into three groups, taking turns to go into battle with cannon fodder. Everyone must maintain at least one-third of their mental power. Adventurers with medical assistance capabilities are not allowed to use any skills to deal with it. Arthas, focus on protecting your own people. All props that can restore mental power are given to auxiliary adventurers. We try to deal with them with normal attacks. We do not seek to kill the enemy, but seek to protect ourselves first. Even if it is grinding, we must use it. Arthas was beaten to death... Oh, by the way, try not to use group damage skills. Not only is it a waste, but you may also accidentally injure your own people."
Since this mission is a four-area hegemony mode, adventurers in other areas are automatically judged as hostile forces by the city. Shen Yi and others can work together in private, but the rules do not recognize it. As a result, once group damage skills are used, accidental injuries will inevitably occur. Others, even King Kong and the others who are in the same team, are no exception.
"I know, is there anything else I want to remind you?" Weina looked at Shen Yi and asked, her big bright eyes flashing with a strange light, which made Wen Wen extremely uncomfortable.
After thinking about it, Shen Yi replied: "...Actually, I have a new trump card to deal with Alsace, but this trump card costs a lot, and I am reluctant to use it. If I really have to use it, I hope to be compensated. .”
With that said, Shen Yi nodded to Hong Lang, who took out the paralysis ring.
Seeing this ring, everyone's eyes lit up at the same time.
No one expected that the Broken Blade Team would already have a pseudo-artifact-level prop at this time, and everyone became excited.
Shen Yi has already said calmly: "As you have seen, this thing has only five uses in total, and each time it is used, it is a huge loss, so I have the right to demand that if the war is unfavorable and I am forced to use it, then I will definitely Team Blades are entitled to an additional option for one bonus item."
As soon as this was said, everyone turned to Wei Na.
Since Lao Meng and the Barbarian Bulls already have designated targets, the additional selection opportunities will have little impact on them, but Wei Na brought Eternal Night here with the purpose of sharing the remaining rewards - anyway, as long as they come from the Demon God The rewards are all good things, and she is not picky about food.
Shen Yi's choice of an additional reward would undoubtedly be a loss for her.
When it comes to consumables, in fact, everyone has them and knows how to use them. Logically, there should be no additional calculations. However, consumables such as the paralysis ring are of great significance after all, and Shen Yi has to take them out for a separate discussion.
Wei Na thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, but it can only be used after I agree... I hope you won't need this thing."
Shen Yi smiled: "Of course, I just hope everyone understands, after all, this is what I paid a huge price for."
Hong Lang muttered from the side: "A huge amount of garbage."
Shen Yi calmly took half a step back and stepped on Hong Lang's foot, causing Hong Lang's whole face to become deformed in pain.
Next, after everyone discussed the specific tactical plan, they headed towards the Frozen Throne together.
Because of the Barbarian Bulls, Dragon Ya, and Eternal Night, they actually met each other for the first time. Along the way, these three teams got closer, chatting and laughing with each other, mainly to enhance understanding and establish friendship. More When working as a team, the most taboo thing is for everyone to have their own agenda. This attack on the Lich King is of great importance, and no one wants to create complications, so it is always good to know more about it.
The Frozen Throne is not far from Ashenvale. To get there, you have to pass through Ashenvale, the base camp of the undead. This was originally an obstacle that had to be passed before dealing with the Lich King, just like the boss is not something that just anyone can easily see.
But with the help of Lao Meng, this problem can be solved easily. Lao Meng exchanged a batch of undead cloaks from the base. As long as he puts this cloak on his body, he can cover up the aura of living things on his body and be mistaken for... Soldiers from the undead camp.
However, this thing can only deceive ordinary undead soldiers with low intelligence, and is of little use to captain-level soldiers with higher intelligence. Fortunately, Lao Meng himself has no intention of deceiving them. All he has to do is lead everyone from the base A path leads through Ashenvale until you reach the Frozen Throne.
With the help of the undead cloak, Shen Yi and the others successfully passed through the outer perimeter of the base and entered the interior. When they arrived here, everyone became nervous and were careful not to speak nonsense. Otherwise, once discovered, everyone would be trapped in a tight siege.
To be honest, if Lao Meng had evil intentions, this would be an opportunity to kill everyone.
Entering the base, Lao Meng pointed to a small path not far away: "Let's go there. There is no captain-level figure there. At our speed, it only takes ten minutes to cross the entire Ashen Valley and reach the foot of the Frozen Throne. "
"Then let's go. To be honest, I don't want to stay in this place for a minute longer." Chu Sheng urged: "I don't know how you can stay in this damn place."
The entire base of the undead looks like a huge cemetery, filled with a desolate atmosphere. Countless ghosts and undead souls are walking here, with a strong ghost atmosphere. From time to time, there are various desolate and desolate sounds. Being here, it feels like you are in another world. The world in horror movies not only has scary scenes, but it also has a fucking soundtrack.
Chu Sheng's words resonated with everyone. He was glad that he did not choose the undead camp in the North District. Otherwise, he would have to live in such a ghost place for fifteen days, mixing with the undead and corpses every day. He really didn't have to kill anyone, and he would have been sick to death.
Instead, Lao Meng chuckled a few times. Perhaps only he could enjoy this. As for the other members of the Longya Team next to him, helplessness appeared on their faces.
Huang Tianyang sighed: "You'll get used to it after a long time."
No matter what he said, it didn't look like he was used to it.
Keep going along the base path, and you will soon be leaving the Ashen Valley.
Suddenly Lao Meng raised his hand and asked everyone to stop: "Wait a minute, the scout I arranged told me that there is a captain ahead."
"What's going on? Didn't it say that the captain on this road has been transferred?" Hongyin asked.
Luo Sheng shrugged: "I am responsible for this matter, and it has indeed been transferred. Now I don't know what happened."
"Let me see." Shen Yida said.
He took out the crystal ball and flicked it, and the scene ahead appeared in the crystal ball. Unlike the game, the crystal ball's peeping ability looks more like the way it is used in The Lord of the Rings.
Two hundred meters ahead, a group of undead warriors were gathering. Each of these warriors were riding undead bone horses. They were a type of unit that had never been seen in the Warcraft game.
In front of the undead cavalry, there was a particularly tall knight, his whole body covered in black iron armor, and some black ghostly aura seeped out from time to time from the gaps in the iron armor. He rode a horse covered with barbs on his crotch, The bone horse with a halo of flames under its feet, and the extremely long knight's spear held high in its hand, looked majestic and arrogant.
As soon as Lao Meng saw the picture, he blurted out: "Damn it, it's Burks!"
"Who is Burks?" Shen Yi looked at Lao Meng.
Lao Meng pointed at the leading dark knight on the screen: "That's this guy. He is the cavalry commander of the undead camp. He is a nightmare knight. He is responsible for leading a dark cavalry team. He is Tavious's deputy and also the commander of ten. The most powerful one among us, one on one, the only one among us who can defeat him is probably Hong Lang."
As soon as he said this, many people groaned in dissatisfaction at the same time, especially Chu Sheng, Dean and others from the Barbarian Bulls. These guys are all accustomed to fighting tough battles. In terms of arrogance, they may not be as arrogant as Chen Yuntao. Much lower, just not that arrogant.
But Lao Meng's next words silenced everyone. He said: "I'm talking about Hong Lang with the paralysis ring."
"Will this guy be here?" Shen Yi asked.
"I don't know, but it looks like they are gathering...hell, what are the undead knights gathering for?" Lao Meng was very depressed.
"What should we do now? Rush over?" Chu Sheng asked Shen Yi.
"No." Shen Yi immediately shook his head. It's easy to charge hard, but it will be troublesome later. Once Tavious knew that a group of people forced their way through the Ashenvale and went straight to the Frozen Throne, he would think about it with his rotten toes. Know who they are going for.
If he hadn't immediately mobilized an army to return to rescue the Frozen Throne, then he, the leader of the undead, wouldn't have to do anything anymore.
It's one thing to deal with a Lich King, but it's another thing to deal with a Lich King plus an entire undead camp.
"We can't stay here forever. The longer we delay, the more dangerous it becomes. Maybe these guys are coming for us!" Wei Na said anxiously. When she said this, she had already started to look at Lao Meng with suspicion.
Lao Meng snorted coldly, but did not explain. Instead, the Chang brothers and others glared at Weina, obviously very dissatisfied with Weina's suspicion.
"Don't worry." Shen Yi was still staring at the screen. On the screen, a large number of undead cavalry continued to gather. The leader, the Nightmare Knight Berks, had two green lights flickering in his empty eye sockets.
Behind him, there were several people standing. Due to the black air, the faces of these people were blurred and could not be seen clearly, but Shen Yi finally discovered it.
"It's an adventurer!" he whispered.
"Adventurer?" Lao Meng was also surprised. He followed Shen Yi's fingers and carefully identified them for a long time, and finally saw the clue with his dry eyes: "It's Bramham and the others."
Shen Yi asked: "Do you know their situation?"
"There is a team in the North District that is difficult to deal with because they are not from the same district. How could they get together with Burks?" Lao Meng was deeply confused.
Shen Yidao: "Maybe there is some mission to be carried out. Judging from the way they are gathering now, they should be setting off, and may leave soon."
"That's the best." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Lao Meng suddenly trembled: "Oh no, there is a captain coming from behind, we are being surrounded!"
"Damn it, I knew this was a trap!" Chu Shenghonglang shouted at the same time, and several rough men from the Barbarian Bulls team even took out their weapons and pointed them at Lao Meng. Lao Meng was so frightened that he shouted: "It has nothing to do with me. !”
Shen Yi shouted in a deep voice: "Stop everyone, do you really want to attract all the dead souls here?"
"But they're already here!"
"Then you have to hold on still!" Shen Yi said angrily, staring at the crystal ball.
"If we don't rush out now, I'm afraid we won't have a chance to rush out." Jack Sandro of Eternal Night also said anxiously.
"I believe Lao Meng, he will not harm us." Shen Yi said calmly.
Hearing this, Lao Meng glanced at Shen Yi gratefully.
The undead knights in front were still gathering one after another, but the undead team behind them was getting closer and closer. Everyone began to become nervous, and the atmosphere suddenly became silent and solemn.
"Hold on!" Shen Yi remained calm, and no one noticed that there was a trace of sweat on his forehead.
Just as the undead team behind them was getting closer and closer to them, almost within reach, Burks on the crystal ball suddenly raised his spear, and all the Dark Knights were dispatched at the same time, rushing out of the base.
