Chapter 82: Chapter 79: The Gains and Losses of the First Battle
The pitch-black cloud of insects made a huge roaring sound, swarming towards the Flying from all directions. The sailors and Jungle Hunters on the deck of the Flying rushed into the cabin corridors in panic.
For a moment, it was like a million soldiers crossing a single-log bridge, crowding at the entrance of the cabin.
âDamn it!â Da Fei cursed anxiously, commanding dozens of hunters to turn back and shoot. Another wave of golden light descended from the sky.
ââSystem Prompt: Your Vice Hero Selvia has cast the Master-level Light Magic âPower of Tenacityâ on your troops, increasing their Defense by +15.
The swarm arrived in an instant, and the crowded people were submerged among the insects.
ââSystem Prompt: Your Vice Hero Selvia has cast the Master-level Light Magic âVitality Regenerationâ on your troops, restoring 15% of their Life Value every 10 seconds.
Da Fei knocked a small insect flying with his spear, exclaiming, âSelvia, hurry into the cabin!â The current situation could only hope that these weak little insects couldnât chew through his troops.
ââSystem Prompt: One of your Jungle Hunters has been killed by an Elite Demon Worm!
Da Fei was suddenly shocked! There were indeed elite troops!
ââSystem Prompt: One of your Jungle Hunters has been killed by an Elite Demon Worm!
Another one dead! Da Feiâs heart was bleeding!
Finally, all troops entered the cabin, and Da Fei, the last one back, immediately turned around and shut the cabin door. The troops in the corridor began to kill the beetles that had followed into the hallway. Outside the cabins, the swarm of beetles hit the cabin doors and hull like hail, making a deafening pounding sound!
Damn it! Ships and walls are considered building attributes by the system, and units with building attributes have increased Defense against light weapons, so normally, enemies wonât attack buildings. Thereâs only one explanation for this situationâthe enemyâs Commander has used a forceful attack command!
Then kill the Commander! Da Fei shouted, âFire the cannons! Donât stop!â
ââBoom! Boom! Up and down rows of Crossbow Arrows whizzed out, the flesh mountain burst like a punctured bag full of wounds, with hundreds of blood fountains gushing out!
The experienced gunner sailors with 10 Attack and 10 Defense, a total of 20 attribute points, have the Crossbow Cannon attribute augmented to 20 Attack by Advanced War Machine Technology, with Basic Damage of 5-6, a total damage of 100-120, a 100% damage increase at 20 Attack equates to 200-240, and the Crossbow Master skill allowing two shots totals 400-480. My own Crossbow damage is sky-high, needless to calculate, the other 15 gunners deal a total damage of 6000-7200 in one round!
Such high total damage would instantly kill a typical BOSS in one round. I donât care how thick your flesh mountainâs Defense is, even if itâs several hundred and can reduce damage by 90%, you still canât withstand several rounds of bombardment!
ïŒNote: When Attack is less than Defense, the final damage= Basic Killing Ă· (1+ (Attack-Defense difference Ă 5%)); according to this formula, a 20-point difference reduces damage by 50%; a 200-point difference reduces damage by 91%, a 500-point difference reduces damage by 96.2%. Only a steel wall could reach 500 points of Defense, large ships generally have a Defense between 100-200 pointsïŒ
Finally, under another round of volley firing from the Crossbow Cannons, the massive flesh mountain let out a miserable howl and collapsed thunderously. The collapsing flesh and blood fell into the Pool of Radiance, burst into sizzling hot white smoke, boiling the entire water area as if it had fallen into a pool of strong acid.
ââSystem Prompt: You have destroyed the Demon Worm Nest, gaining +100,000 Experience!
ââ System Prompt: You have further collected and perfected the information related to the Demon Worm Nest.
At this moment, the swarm lost its Commander, and the beetles also stopped ramming the ship, wandering outside the cabin for a moment before flying back to the roots to continue working.
Da Fei finally took a long breath of relief.
Now, letâs check the losses, the shipâs Durability has been gnawed down by the swarm of ants like elephants gnawing away more than three hundred, leaving only 1324. The encounter just now cost 7 Jungle Hunters. For the expensive and scarce Elf troops, this can definitely be considered a heavy loss. However, it doesnât matter, my little treasureâs Master-level Light Magic will definitely perform Resurrection Technique.
Da Fei found Serbia, who at this moment looked exhausted, her pristine Nun costume stained and dirty, Da Fei exclaimed, âAre you badly hurt?â
Serbia shook her head and sighed, âIâm not seriously injured, but I have run out of Mana, Iâm afraid I canât resurrect the fallen soldiers.â
In the game, bodies cannot stay overnight, after the night even gods cannot resurrect them. However, compared to merely a few soldiers, the state of the hero is the most important.
Da Fei hurriedly said, âItâs okay, hurry and go rest and sleep!â
Serbia sighed, âIâm sorry, my skills are not adequate.â
Da Fei patted her petite shoulder: âItâs my mistake in command, anyway, hurry up and rest to recover your Mana for tomorrowâs battle.â
âAlright, I will definitely try my best tomorrow.â
In the game, the Light systemâs support Spells and the Dark Elementâs curse spells can affect the entire army; the more troops affected, the greater the Mana consumed, and the specific calculation between the number of troops and Mana consumption involves quite complex logarithmic functions â players only need to know that the more Mana, the better. Today Serbia released three group spells, particularly the Mana-intensive Healing Magic-Life Regeneration, her 200 points of Mana with 20 points of knowledge were indeed not sufficient.
Generally, a Priest-type hero in a large-scale battle will only cast two or three major spells, and one major spell can often change the course of the battle, like the Righteous Power +15 Attack, which means a 75% damage increase, equivalent to having an additional Master-level Attack Skill. The remaining Mana should be saved for Resurrection Technique. Therefore, knowledge is always the primary attribute for a priest. But Magic Power is equally important; it affects the duration of Spells and the number of troops that can be resurrected. Thus, a priest can never prioritize attribute points on Attack and Defense.
After sending the little treasure to the resting room, Da Fei couldnât help but sigh deeply, this isnât how a battle should be fought.
The first battle was a loss; in the next battle, just donât send troops on deck, but the shipâs Durability canât withstand it! A single battle lost 300 Durability, how many more battles can I fight? Clearly, there are dozens of these giant sea insect nests!
Speaking of which, this Epic Quest is only achievable because Iâm so powerful, with my large ships and giant cannons I could easily knock down these nests with tens of thousands of life value. But if another player received this quest, how would they even fight? This quest canât possibly be designed specifically for players with large ships, right? How could a level 30 player have a large ship?
It seems Epic Quests are not so simple; itâs not just a matter of having good equipment and overpowering the challenge, like Makarâs Epic Quest, it certainly requires a clever strategy. This task surely has a trick to it!
During these reflections, the meat hill on the roots all collapsed under corrosion, amidst the steaming white fog, a large building of the Elf Clan, wrapped by the meat hill, was revealed.
Da Feiâs eyebrows twitched, that wasâthe building for recruiting level 0 Elf troops, the Flower Demon!
