Chapter 458 Dog Hole Tactics, the Winter Treasure Chest Is in Hand [Anti-Theft]
So he stopped advancing and controlled the [Magic Drilling Machine] to retreat backward.
The passage was given up, and Doris was needed at this time.
He needs Doris to use "spitting fire" to burn a dog hole for a snow leopard.
Doris, who was on the side, had already understood Zong Shen's intentions.
She nodded to Zong Shen and smiled slightly, revealing two small tiger teeth.
Immediately afterwards, he walked into the passage opened by the drilling machine with the staff.
Activated the Spitfire skill at the appropriate location.
According to the shape of those snow leopards, a melting hole with a width of about one meter was burned.
As the fire dragon melted through the remaining ice layer little by little.
Zong Shen also stood by behind Doris with a trident.
To deal with these captain-level guys, there is no need to use the Dragon Slaying Epee at all.
The rare [Wind, Fire and Thunder Trident] is enough to get them.
After five or six seconds, the interlayer of the center circle was completely opened up.
However, the fire dragon needs to be burned for a while to ensure that the inner and outer diameters of the melting hole can be consistent.
Spitfires are not like drilling rigs, which can carve out channels of uniform diameter.
In the jet of the fire dragon, the melting hole is large on the outside and small on the inside.
After more than ten seconds, the melting hole was finally penetrated, and the diameter at the deepest point reached one meter.
Those snow leopards seemed to have no wisdom at all. When they first got through, they couldn't wait to get out, and they were not afraid of the burning of the fire dragon.
After the melting hole was completely opened, the snow leopard had lost more than half of its health, and the thick hair on its head was burned to black coal.
A burnt odor emanated from the passage.
When the hole was large enough for it to burrow in, the snow leopard bent its forelegs and began to try to burrow out in a crawling manner, looking awkward and ridiculous.
It's like a real dog hole. Its speed is very slow, and it takes at least ten seconds to get out. This time is enough for Zong Shen to kill it.
Zong Shen gently pulled Ladoris' sleeve, motioning her to give up and hide behind him.
He took a few steps forward, taking Doris's place, and the [Wind, Fire and Thunder Trident] in his hand stabbed at the bald forehead.
The three halberd thorns shone with elemental rays of different colors, and hit the snow leopard's skull precisely.
"Crack!"
With the sound of crisp bones breaking, the snow leopard's crawling posture froze for a while.
The light of the three elements suddenly lit up, as if three candles were lit on its head.
【-256】
【-20】
【-20】
【-20】
A high amount of piercing damage burst out along with the damage of three elemental magic.
This blow took away 316 health points of Snow Leopard.
It now has only fifty or sixty health points left.
This part of the skull was burned by the flames, and all the hairs with resistance were burned.
So when Zong Shen attacked, this poor beast had to face full damage.
Because the melting hole is only one meter wide and half a meter long.
This guy can only use a creeping method to reach in a small section of his body.
Now its skull has been shattered and deformed by the blow of the trident.
The health value was also reduced to below 10%, and he entered a dying state.
"too weak."
Zong Shen said with some disdain.
The trident in his hand was inserted again, completely piercing its head.
The turbid white slurry mixed with bright red blood and dripped on the ground.
Turned into pink flowers of death.
[Kill lv20 Tier 3 Icefield Snow Leopard]
[Acquired 1860 experience points]
【Get 125 Winter Points】
Kill hints appear in the corners of the field of view.
The experience value is quite rich, and the difficulty to kill is much lower than that of the Winter Snow Monster.
To his surprise, the body of the snow leopard did not disappear after it died.
This means that the materials and meat on it can be used.
Zong Shen stuck its head and dragged the snow leopard's body out as he stepped back.
This is also an extra income, and snow leopard meat can be eaten.
Leather, claws, teeth, and bone can all be good materials.
As captain-level icefield beasts, the materials on them are also of blue quality.
It is an essential substrate for making blue-grade equipment.
Zong Shen pulled out the trident, carried the big snow leopard with the shape of a pony in one hand, and threw it outside the passage.
Because the second snow leopard can't wait to get out.
These guys seem to be overwhelmed with intelligence and only have a fanatical attack intent.
With the dog hole tactics and super high attack power, Zong Shen was able to easily kill all the remaining snow leopards.
...
Four or five minutes later, all the snow leopards died under Zong Shen's trident.
It turned into blood-stained corpses and piled up outside the small iceberg passage.
These seven snow leopards contributed 13,020 experience points, 875 challenge points, and 175 extraction points to him.
With another 2000 experience points, Zong Shen will be able to upgrade to level 27.
Now all the icefield beasts guarding the treasure chest have been killed by him.
Taking advantage of the sunny weather and the temperature began to rise, Zong Shen called Howie again, and brought the strong dragon-shaped gun and shield warriors to drag the corpses back to the living area.
At present, the snow has melted a lot, but the remaining part still exceeds the snow removal ability of the load bearer mecha, and it takes a while to wait.
After cleaning up the body of the snow leopard, Zong Shen got on the [Magic Drilling Machine] again.
At this time, he still has to rely on the big guy, he is not willing to go to the dog hole.
Under the violent drilling of the drilling machine, the dog hole was soon opened.
The treasure chest is just ahead, frozen in thick, square icicles.
He carefully opened a small gap with the drill bit, and then stopped the drilling machine.
Come to the icicle and use the trident to manually break the ice.
The remaining ice layer is still clear, and in the field of vision, it seems that there is no distance.
Zong Shen used the trident to dig more than a dozen times, and the Winter Winter Treasure Chest was completely exposed in front of him.
This is the first Winter Treasure Chest he has obtained after the third stage is opened.
He continued to gouge on both sides, breaking the icicles, and brought out the treasure chest in its entirety.
The small iceberg now resembles an igloo with a hollow interior.
Zong Shen looked at the Winter Treasure Chest at his feet, feeling a little excited.
This treasure chest is engraved with an ice-toothed mammoth pattern, which looks different from the regular silver treasure chest. The whole body is blue-white with some metallic luster.
With distinct characteristics of winter, Zong Shen stared at the treasure chest, and pieces of related information also appeared in front of him.
【Winter Treasure Chest】
[An unknown winter treasure chest, no one knows what can be opened]
【(click to open)】
(There is no problem with the treasure chest, you can open it with confidence)
It seems that the Winter Treasure chest is indeed the same as the ordinary treasure chest, or it is a silver treasure chest with a changed "skin".
Zong Shen reached out and stroked without hesitation, and chose to open.
The lid of the box slowly opened, and six groups of reward lights of different colors emerged.
The blue-and-white treasure chest began to melt, turning into a light blue liquid that melted into the ice surface.
This put him off the idea of trying to recycle empty boxes.
Focus on the rewards from the treasure chests.
[Successfully opened the Winter Treasure Chest]
[Construction drawings of the fourth-order two-story stone house × 1]
[The fourth-order element tower construction drawing (purple) × 1]
【Whetstone (green) × 1】
【Berdotti wine (blue) × 3】
【Refined Wheat Bread×6】
【Primary Recovery Potion × 3】
【Mithril×12】
These rewards are relatively mediocre. There is only one rare item. It is a blueprint of a new type of defense tower, called the Elemental Tower. The name is similar to the Elemental Arrow Tower, but it is completely different.
In addition, there is a [4th-order double-storey stone house construction drawing], which is an advanced version of the third-order stone house, and is also a necessary folk house building for the development of the territory.
Apart from these two blueprints, the rest of the rewards can only be said to be mediocre.
Wine, potions, refined wheat bread, mithril...
On the contrary, the [whetstone (green)] is a bit more interesting.
It is a booster prop with a special effect.
【Whetstone (green)】
[Quality: Excellent grade]
[Effect: Primary Polishing (can be polished for any bladed weapon, entering a "sharp" state that lasts 10 minutes, making the weapon's attack an additional 15 points of armor-piercing effect)]
(Sharpen your sword and cut his throat)
This prop can make the weapon have a certain duration of armor-piercing effect, which can be regarded as a more practical prop.
Zong Shen put away all the items, and placed the two blueprints separately in a new row of slots, leaving them to check them one by one when the work ended at night.
Now he wants to keep his precious time on the Winter Chest.
This time, not counting the travel time, he spent about 20 minutes from start to finish.
In fact, it also includes the time he conducts experiments.
Zong Shen, who has mastered the tricks, is confident to get the treasure chest within ten minutes when facing the new Xiaobingshan.
The main force of the treasure exploration plan is the [Magic Drilling Machine], and secondly, Doris needs to use the "fire-breathing" skill to create a dog hole for attracting monsters.
The dog hole tactic is almost omnipotent. He only needs to decide the size of the dog hole according to the type of icefield beasts guarding the treasure chest in the small iceberg.
Whether it's a snow leopard or any other icefield beast, dog hole tactics can be perfectly dealt with.
If he can deal with the guarded beast without injury, then the Winter Treasure Chest is like a fruit on the branch, and he will let him pick it.
Zong Shen didn't know if other lords had exchanged the [Magic Drilling Machine]. It stands to reason that the exchange price of 1000 points is not cheap, but according to the previous basic survival points, there should still be many lords who can exchange it.
Of course, whether it can be exchanged is one thing, and whether it will be exchanged is another.
After all, there are many good things in [Special Items].
Who would have thought that the third phase of the Winter Treasure Chest would appear in the form of a small iceberg?
Zong Shen had never imagined that he exchanged these two [Magic Drilling Machines] just to facilitate the excavation of the ruins, especially the ruins below the rogue territory.
Now everything is ready, just waiting for him to develop.
And it is above the ruins of the ancient elven city Azshara.
Zong Shen believes that these two drilling rigs will definitely come in handy.
Because of having a strategy module, Zong Shen has a unique advantage in exploring such deeply buried relics.
Unless it was a coincidence, other people would know that there are ruins under that piece of dirt.
Unless there are conspicuous surface relics, or find some ancient books, maps, etc. that record the detailed location, so honestly being a digger is what Zong Shen should do.
As an aspiring digger, it is normal to have two [Magic Drilling Machines].
As for now, it is a surprise that Zong Shen discovered that the drilling machine has an unparalleled advantage in excavating small icebergs.
As the weather clears, the temperature rises, and the outdoor conditions begin to improve, the lords must be starting to move again.
Zong Shen can already imagine the scene after those lords were pleasantly surprised to discover the small iceberg with the frozen winter treasure chest around the territory.
They need to find a way to break through the ice layer, maybe try to make a fire next to the small iceberg, maybe they will drag their families to the soldiers and farmers in the territory to dig bit by bit.
In short, if there are no targeted and arrogant means, it will take at least two or three hours to get through the small iceberg with conventional methods.
Then, you still need to defeat the icefield monster that guards the Winter Treasure Chest, and finally you can harvest a Winter Treasure Chest. This is the smoothest situation.
It's no wonder that during the third phase of Winter, only 1,000 Winter Treasure Chests will drop in each area.
This number actually indicates that the difficulty of obtaining treasure chests will not be very low for most lords.
Even Zong, who has mastered the skills, can't get too much for whatever he wants.
The travel time, excavation time, battle time, and unpacking time of the journey are all integrated.
Being able to open a Winter Treasure Chest within 30-40 minutes is pretty good.
This time will also be extended as the surrounding Winter Chests are fully excavated.
1,000 treasure chests are scattered over an area of 40,000 square kilometers.
The further you travel, the higher the proportion of time spent traveling.
This is the result of Zong Shen's estimation, and in general it should be inseparable.
He put away his thoughts and left the small iceberg.
Pulled up Ashiya and returned to the cockpit of the drilling rig again.
From the current situation, it is useless to bring Aishia out.
The difficulty of the battle cannot be said to be stress-free, it can only be said to be easy.
But now that everyone is out, it is not appropriate to send it back to Asia!
He asked Doris to return to the living area on his own along the road opened by the drilling machine, and took Faved and the third-order arcane mages to follow the drilling machine in the weight-bearer mecha.
Since the corpses of those beasts can be recovered, he needs additional vehicles.
Zong Shen drove the drilling rig to deflect and head northeast.
The new point is 3.26 kilometers from here, on the northeastern edge of the territory.
This time, Zong Shen gradually increased the speed, and finally raised the [Magic Drilling Machine] to the power speed of the first gear.
Move towards the target at a speed of 35-40 kilometers per hour.
