Heroes of Invincible Hidden Architect

Chapter 643 Chaos and Cheating

Qige and Smit shared their missing and cuddled for a while.

Seeing that Smit's mood had stabilized, Qige said seriously:

"Smit, you must keep in mind what I'm going to tell you next."

"Ok!"

Qige took a deep breath, stretched out her hand, and conjured up an extremely strange-looking map in the air.

Smith tilted his head suspiciously.

In Qige's hands, there are miniature cubes that form a map with scattered heights.

The top of each cube has a different scene.

Mountains, plains, seas, Jedi, canyons, abyss...

Qige pointed to the map and said:

"The world in this chaotic treasure house is called the grid world.

As you can see, the top of each square is a terrain.

These terrains are distinct from the terrains on other squares. Depending on the terrain, you can find the corresponding field buildings and outputs on the terrain.

For example, if forests can produce food wood, plains can produce food and ores, and waters can produce food, gems, etc.

Where we are is the center of the world.

Except for the square we are in, there will be a chaotic monster in charge of guarding on every square, and you can only occupy the square by defeating it.

After occupying the grid, you can execute the 4 commands of exploration, collection, development and destruction.

[Exploration] You can search for hidden buildings on the grid, special resources, troubled units, etc.

[Collect] You can get a lot of corresponding resources, but it will reduce the effect of the terrain on the grid, that is, the more you collect, the less.

Collecting the same square repeatedly will eventually lead to nothing.

[Development] You can build a garrison on the grid. After a certain number of soldiers are stationed, you will continue to get the output on this terrain.

[Destroy] will directly destroy the grid, turning the grid into an impassable void, but will get massive resources at once.

Unlike in the Yasha world where we can deal with every detail in detail, in the square world, after we give instructions, we can only get relatively simple returns.

We can't even control the attack process.

This is our greatest difficulty. "

Smit listened very carefully and remembered clearly.

Seeing that Smit could keep up, Qige continued:

"When you occupy 9 squares that make up the nine-square grid, you can use this nine-square grid to build a city.

After owning the city, your strength will be greatly improved, and you will get a stable source of troops.

But there is more than one way to obtain the city, and the specific explanation is more complicated. After the official start, if you encounter similar opportunities, I will remind you. "

"Well! I wrote it down!"

Smith nodded vigorously.

Next comes the most important place.

Qi Ge took a deep breath and said seriously:

"The name of the Chaos Treasure House we want to capture is called the Land of Ghosts.

The reason for this name is because our opponent is a ghost butterfly who can turn Fangge into a ghost. "

Seven pigeons stretched out their fingers and clicked on a square, and the terrain on the entire square disappeared in an instant, and the square turned into a strange brown scorched earth. On this brown scorched earth, a large group of green caterpillars were constantly Wriggling, looking extremely disgusting.

Seven pigeons explained:
"This is the land of ghosts.

The ghosted squares will become unoccupiable, and troops will be sent directly to attack the ghostly land, and there will be no suspense as many people die as they go.

However, the ghostly land will continuously send chaos monsters to the squares around it.

Dispatch is not only dispatched to adjacent squares, some flying Chaos units can jump to far away squares.

If the chaotic units on the grid are not cleared in time, when the accumulated number of chaotic monsters is greater than the carrying capacity of this grid, this grid will also become a ghost.

The only way to eliminate the ghostly land is to restrict and encircle it. "

Seven pigeons pointed, and the four adjacent squares of the ghostly land were planted with flags representing Smith.

"When the surroundings of the ghostly land are occupied by your territory, the ghostly land will be restricted, and you can no longer send chaos monsters around."

Qige snapped his fingers again, and cities appeared next to the four squares with Smit's flag.

"After the city is successfully built, the city can consume construction points to expand around, and include the surrounding squares of the city into its own city range.

The ghostly land is surrounded by cities, and this ghostly land will be destroyed and return to a normal square. "

Smit blinked his eyes and suddenly realized:
"Oh, I get it.

If all the squares on the entire map become the range of my city, wouldn't the ghost land be generated? "

Qige smiled and said:

"Yes, but "both" is not required."

Seven pigeons stretched out their fingers and drew delicate lines on the map.

The lines are interlaced with each other to form a special pattern.

There is exactly one square between each line, just like a fishing net.

Seven pigeons explained:
"The squares that each city can accommodate are limited, and building a city requires a lot of resources.

Therefore, we need to use as few cities as possible to control as many squares as possible.

According to my calculations, in the most perfect situation, as long as there are seven cities, a perfect blockade network can be formed.

When the ghostly land can no longer be generated on this map, we will win and the strategy will be successful.

And if we fail to hold back the Haunted Land's attack, we will fail. "

Qige pointed to the map and said:

"If you choose to destroy the grid, the empty space left by the grid will inevitably generate a ghostly place after three rounds.

Therefore, you must be cautious when destroying squares.

Also, look at Smit.

If you want to restrict or surround a ghostly land with a single grid, you only need to control the 4 grids up, down, left, and right.

But if two ghost lands are connected together, you have to control six squares to surround them all.

At the same time, the larger the area of ​​the ghostly land, the fiercer the chaotic monsters it generates, the stronger the attack on the surrounding area, and it may even destroy the city that has not yet formed an encirclement circle.

If the land of ghosts is too large, it will become impossible to be restricted and surrounded.

Once the ghostly land forms a nine-grid connection, whether it is a nine-square grid or a strange-shaped connection, we will directly fail.

Therefore, it is necessary to avoid concatenation of ghostly lands.

Smith said nervously:

"I understand, we must develop as soon as possible, and compete with the ghostly land for development speed, right?"

"Correct!"

Qige nodded solemnly.

"There is another piece of good news. Originally, the land of ghosts should appear at the same time as us, but because you are only level 5, the land of ghosts will be delayed by ten rounds.

Let's start, there will be more time. "

"round?"

Smith's eyes lit up: "Could it be that this treasure house is a turn-based system?"

"Yes." Qi Ge said with a smile: "This is also an area that our heroes are familiar with."

……

……

Qige explained many details to Smit, and the preparation time he had was gradually passing.

After explaining everything, Qige looked at his palm, his palm was gradually fading, and seemed to disappear at any moment.

Qige held Smit's hand and said seriously:

"Next, I have no way to communicate with you directly, I can only contact you through some special methods.

But you don't be afraid, don't panic.

You must remember that although you cannot see me, I can see your every move.

When you encounter difficulties that you cannot solve, look around and you will be sure to find the hints that I have tried to convey to you. "

"Um!!"

Smit nodded vigorously, and time flowed again, but Qige disappeared beside her.

Smit stretched out his hand and grabbed the empty air, feeling reluctant to part with it.

She patted her face, and said cheeringly to herself:

"Come on! In order to be able to stand beside Brother Qige."

Smit took a step forward, and a hundred human soldiers with firm eyes said to Smit at the same time:
"My lord, please order."

Smit took a deep breath, pointed to the troops, and said:

"20 armored spearmen stayed, 10 [explored] in situ, and the other 10 [developed] the local area.

The remaining troops are divided into 2 teams to attack the southern and northern squares respectively. "

"Yes! Die for the saint."

……

Watching Smit dispatching troops from the perspective of God, Qige smiled slightly.

Smith did a great job.

If you want to develop at a high speed, you must divide your troops.

The prerequisite for dividing troops to attack two squares at the same time is that the initial troops must be strong enough.

In this regard, Schmidt's troops are fully satisfied.

At that time, when Smit's troops had just been calculated, the Qige people were dumbfounded.

[Twilight Wanderer], [Warhammer Priest], [Heavy Swordsman], [Unflappable Banner], [Xinghan Heavy Crossbowman]...

Each team has 10 [Twilight Wanderers], 2 [Invincible Flags], and leads the remaining 28 human arms, which is enough to form a powerful fighting group without the leadership of a hero.

"Smit is the chosen one of luck and has exclusive special skills. After she became a hero, she obtained the primary treasure-making technique and the advanced luck technique.

[Lucky God's Choice: Luck +6, Inspiration +12]

Her super high basic luck value, coupled with the bonus of advanced luck, gave her a strong initial force.

A strong initial force allows Schmidt to perform more operations in more rounds.

At the beginning of the first round, 10 [heavy armored spearmen] began to search on the grassland grid.

At the same time, in front of Seven Pigeons, a hundred cards were quietly suspended in the air.

These cards have different designs:
The soldier knelt on the grass, opened the treasure chest, and was ecstatic;
The soldier fell into the deep pit, looking terrified.

The terrifying behemoth landed with one foot, trampling a large group of soldiers into a pulp.

……

One hundred cards are divided into fifty good cards and fifty bad cards, but among the forty good cards, only ten good cards can really play a role, and the others are better than nothing.

Qige suddenly realized:

"I see.

The total number of cards is proportional to the number of explorers. For each additional explorer, 1 gold card, 4 white cards, 4 gray cards and 1 black card will be added.

After all, Smit has the lucky god's choice stunt, no matter how bad it is, it shouldn't be much worse.

Destiny wife blesses me, as long as I don't get gray and black cards, I can accept even 10 white cards. "

Qige stared at the cards carefully, a hundred cards flew up and down, and then ten cards fell from the sky.

These cards seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog, making Qige a little unclear.

"Be sure to encounter a black card at the beginning. Every soldier can be important at the beginning."

Just as Qi Ge was tremblingly praying, ten cards were opened one after another, and the bright golden light almost blinded Qi Ge's eyes.

"Fuck?!

Ten cards, all dazzling gold!Not even a white card?

Outrageous? !How could it be so outrageous? "

The cards were flipped open one by one, revealing the patterns on them.

[Crystal Farm: A heavily armored spearman found a crystal farm with crystal flowers on the grassland.

Flowing grassland grid development progress +10%, crystal output +50/round]

[Taoyuan refugees: A heavily armored spearman discovered a refugee village.

There are 200 farmers in the village.

After some communication, the whole village joins your team.

Flowing water grassland grid development progress +20%, get 1st-level 1st-level farmers*200】

[Bison herds: A heavily armored spearman found a large herd of cattle.

You can slaughter cattle to get a lot of food, and you can also domesticate cattle to develop animal husbandry.

please choose……】

The exploration instructions were given by Schmidt, but each option found during the exploration process was made by seven pigeons.

"Slaughtering can get a lot of food in the early days, but it is definitely not as good as domestication.

The development of animal husbandry can obtain a stable cattle pasture. The earlier the development of animal husbandry, the more food can be obtained. "

Qige chose domestication without hesitation.

【Domestication is complete, your territory has obtained 【Buffalo Ranch】.

Food +20/round, farmland produces food +30%. 】

[Wild land:
A heavy armored spearman found a special grassland where the grass grew extra tall.

Nothing for now.

In the next round, you can choose to continue exploring this place. If you choose to continue exploring, you will need to send an additional 19 soldiers. Before the exploration is successful, you will lose control of these soldiers. 】

【Lost Treasure Chest

Your soldiers found a huge treasure chest buried deep in the soil. After opening the treasure chest, you got 3 gold coins, 50 gems, 50 crystals, 50 brimstone, and 50 mercury.

You have reason to believe that this is the treasure left by the previous dynasty that was shattered.

The soldiers thought it must be a gift from heaven.

They were able to find this treasure chest because the saint is the savior sent from heaven.

Permanently increases the morale of all your soldiers by one. 】

【Abandoned outpost
An abandoned outpost, where some veterans are still stationed, consumes 4000 gold coins, and can recruit 40 archers and 50 spearmen.

If you spend another 1 gold coins, you can buy the entire abandoned outpost and remodel it into a spearman tower and an archer tower. 】

……

……

With 10 golden light cards, the development progress of Flowing Water Grassland was abruptly piled up to 70%, and a lot of resources were obtained, as well as a large number of resource points and a recruitment point.

Qige witnessed with his own eyes how bad luck Smit was, which made him more confident about passing the race once.

【End of development】

[10 heavy armored spearmen successfully developed 10%, and the flowing water grassland grid obtained:
Food: 10/round, gold coins 100/round.

The current total development progress is 80%, and the grassland road has been successfully built. 】

[Grassland Chidao: The wide Chidao allows all troops to flow unimpeded.

Troops do not need to consume time to pass through the square of flowing grassland. 】

Under normal circumstances, every time the troops pass through a square, they need to consume a fixed round of time and some food.

However, buildings that are beneficial to Smith will be built on squares where the development progress exceeds 50%, saving the time it takes to move.

A square with a development rate of 100% will automatically replenish the troops passing by, so that they do not need to consume food.

So development options are very important.

Of course, if Fangge is included in the scope of the city, Fangge will automatically obtain 100% development, but the number of rounds required to build the city is far greater than the number of rounds required for development.

On a square with a development degree of 100%, the time required to build a city will also be shortened.

After the development was over, the news of the battle came soon after.

[Battle Report 1: The southern [Wojiao Plain] was successfully captured, with a total loss of 3 soldiers.

[Warhammer Priest] successfully revived 2 people.

Lost a total of [Holy Guards] (level 1, level 4 miracle). 】

[Battle report 2: The northern [Moist Mountain] was successfully captured, with a total loss of 9 soldiers.

[Warhammer Priest] successfully revived 3 people.

A total of 2 [Holy Guards], 1 [Twilight Wanderer], and 3 [Xinghan Heavy Crossbowmen] were lost. 】

In the first round, there was a loss of 1 myth and 6 miracles.

Seeing the battle report, Qige felt a little heartache.

Such losses could have been avoided had the troops not been divided.

But now is not the time to feel sorry for the battle damage. Taking advantage of the fact that it has just started and there is no harassment from [Ghost Transformation Land], it is king to trade the battle damage for the speed of development.

No matter how strong the initial force is, it is only the initial force.

Even if all the initial troops are kept intact, it is still unrealistic to rely on 100 soldiers to fight against the terrible [Ghostly Land] in the end.

The sooner you build as many cities as possible, the greater your chances of winning in the later stage.

……

……

In Qige's eyes, battle damage is just a number, but in Smit's eyes, battle damage is a person who disappeared before her eyes.

After the battle, the troops who returned to Smit's side were overwhelmed with the sadness of losing their companions.

But fortunately, both battles were victorious, and their morale was not greatly affected.

Time begins to fast forward, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, the vegetation grows vigorously, and the flowers gradually bloom.

Spring is over and summer is coming.

In this special House of Chaos, every turn is a season.

The four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter continue to rotate.

Among them, the three seasons of spring, summer and autumn have no negative impact, except for winter, when the grain production of all squares will be halved in winter.

At the end of the round, if there is not enough food, the morale of the soldiers will start to drop or even starve to death and flee.

Right now, food is relatively sufficient, and Smit doesn't care about winter.

A new round is coming.

Qige immediately thought about it.

"Under normal circumstances, the development order is the safest, after all, exploration is risky.

But Schmidt's luck is really unreasonable.

Ten heavy gunmen were in charge of exploring and drew out the ten most valuable golden cards.

Grandma, as long as there are miracles, she must be able to hold them in her hands, right?
Destiny is only my ally, but her own mother.

10 heavy gunmen were developed, but only 10% of the progress was developed.

10 heavy gunmen searched, and found 70% of the development progress and a bunch of good things.

This is where everyone knows which one to choose. "

……

At the critical moment when the order is about to be issued.

Smith looked around nervously.

Just then, a flower popped up at Smit's feet.

In front of Smit, this flower completed three steps of budding, budding, and flowering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Immediately afterwards, a string of flowers unfolded one after another.

"Red red green green, blue purple blue, red, yellow blue..."

Seeing these little flowers, Smit calculated in his mind for a while, and understood Qi Ge's hint.

She gave the order without hesitation.

"Expedition 1 and 2 add 20 spearmen and 10 archers respectively, and they are still divided into two groups, attacking the east and west respectively.

Leave 10 spearmen and 9 peasants to search [Wild Land], and 20 peasants to develop [Floating Plains].

The remaining farmers are all divided into 2 groups, and they will attack and explore [Wojiao Plain] and [Moist Mountain] respectively. "

……

……

Seeing that Smith understood his hint, Qi Ge was very proud.

He and Smit have a heart-to-heart connection, and only need some simple color codes, plus a comparison book, Smit can understand what he means.

Next, it's time to compete for the speed of development.

……

【explore:
[Alpine Bird's Nest:
Your soldiers have discovered a huge bird's nest high in the mountains.

Seasoned soldiers tell you that these nests may have once been inhabited by harpies, but they are nowhere to be seen now.

These nests can be dismantled and used as soldiers' quarters.

You can choose to dismantle the bird's nest, get wood +500.

You can also choose to leave the bird's nest behind, and the development rate of the wet mountain +15%]

……

[Alpine Mine:
...]

【The fruit forest at the bottom of the mountain:...】

……

[Mountain Horse Group:
Your hoplites have found a herd of horses that are free to gallop across the high mountains.

A brave heavy armored spearman tried his best to tame the horse king.

You have obtained a level 4 and level 1 mythical unit [Mountain Heavy Cavalry]*1
You have obtained a level 1 unit [Mountain Horse]*1. 】

……

[Huge farmland:
A farmer found a large piece of black soil on the plain. He marveled at the fertility of the soil and almost knelt down and cried bitterly.

Even if you don't need to cultivate, you can harvest twice a season as long as you throw the wheat seeds around.

This piece of farmland must be a gift from God.

Soldiers morale permanent +1
[Wozhi Plain] Development +20%, Food Production +50%]

[Clear out the wells:
...]

[Savage Village:
……

The number of farmers +100, the number of spearmen +20, the number of swordsmen +20]

……

……

In the second round of exploration, a total of [-] cards were drawn.

A total of forty gold cards were drawn, 150 white cards, and only ten gray cards.

The two newly obtained territories have a direct 100% development rate.

Also found an extremely important treasure.

[Ancient Ruins:
Your soldiers defeated a horde of mindless undead in the depths of the Badlands, losing 10 Lancers and gaining a strange artifact.

After your research, this treasure can reveal the surrounding dangers.

Obtain a level 6 treasure: Chaos Compass]

After possessing the Chaos Compass, Qige's perspective has changed.

On all the squares adjacent to Smith's territory, there are more or less large or small skulls.

After Qige's research, the size and color of the skulls reflected the strength of the Chaos troops stationed on the square.

This also made Qige discover the bad news.

Among the eight squares around the flowing water plain, the difficulty of seven squares is almost the same, but on the square in the northeast corner, there is a huge red to black skull.

This shows that there are many [BOSS] at the level of true Chaos units, as well as a large number of other Chaos monsters.

This made Qi Ge feel troubled, but at the same time fortunate.

If you want to build the city in the first time, you must quickly lay down a nine-square grid with the Liushui Plain as the center.

A super-difficult square appeared in the northeast corner, which instantly ruined the seven-pigeon plan.

At the same time, Qi Ge is very glad that she has obtained [Chaos Compass].

If there is no hint from the Chaos Compass, he would still divide his troops and hit the troops, which may lead to the annihilation of the entire army.

After thinking about it, Qi Ge decided to go around that square.

The number of enemies in that square is at least 10 times that of other squares. Even if all the initial forces are assembled, the battle may cause heavy losses.

It's better to expand to the west and play three more squares.

……

……

After four rounds, using flowers to send messages, Smit perfectly completed the intention of seven pigeons.

The Jiugong grid was formed, the total force in Smith's hands reached 1450, and the construction of the city began.

Since 9 of the 7 grids in the Jiugongge have been fully developed, it only takes two rounds to build the city when all the staff participate in the city building.

After two rounds, the city was built!

Grand fireworks bloomed in the sky, and a tall castle was built on the plain where Smith was located!
Smit mischievously named this newly built city God's Choice City, hoping that the real God's Choice City would bring good luck to the new city.

Perhaps the name really played a role. Just after the construction of God's Choice City was completed, Qi Ge received a piece of good news that lifted his spirits.

Among the two undeveloped squares, there is a 【Kingfisher Wetland】.

On the [Kingfisher Wetland], a natural wonder was discovered!
【Great Tomb of Nazarick
Effect: 30 Liches are produced every round, and any level 5 unit can be transformed into a Lich.

When a Lich is spawned, there is a chance that a Lich Hero will be born. 】

【Great Tomb of Nazarick】was just discovered, and 90 Lich guards were provided to the city at one time.

In the eighth round from Treasure House, Smit's troops changed from pure humans to a combined army of humans and undead.

The addition of new races suddenly caused Schmidt's territory to explode.

【The Boneyard is found in Liushuiyuan, and the dead life units can turn into skeleton soldiers in the Boneyard. 】

[Death Mine was discovered in Humid Mountains, mining the mine can get undead death energy, note that only undead units can be mined. 】

[Discovered the Institute of Undead Magic. 】

[Discover the undead laboratory. 】

……

……

Qi Ge and Smit were stunned by the long series of news.

After careful study, Seven Pigeons was overjoyed to find that with the addition of the new race, the output that each square could provide had almost doubled!
This discovery immediately made Qige realize the correct way to play [Ghostly Land].

"Adding an undead race will add so much output, what about adding other races? Orcs, elves, Behemoths, elements, Titans...

[Nazarick Tomb] is a natural wonder, so I discovered it when the city was built.

It is very likely that there will be some structures that are not of the wonder level still in the wild.

In this chaotic treasure house, the exploration command is more useful than I imagined. "

So, under the prompt of Qige, Smit immediately increased his investment in exploration instructions.

At the same time, the construction of the new city began vigorously.

Buildings rose up on the new city one by one, increasing the city's prosperity and allowing Schmidt to have more stable barracks.

As the number of soldiers increases, Schmidt can start multi-line operations.

In the tenth round, Smit attacked 5 squares that were easier to attack at the same time.

But at the same time, the first [Ghostly Land] was born.

"what?!"

Qige looked at the map in shock.

There are more than 2000 squares in total, but this first [Ghostly Land] was born in the northeast corner of the Flowing Plain, only half a square away from Smith's original place.

In the first round of [Ghostly Land]'s generation, it began to send more Chaos monsters around.

Qige saw with her own eyes that there was only one small skull in the square, but after being recruited by [Ghostly Land], it instantly became three skulls, and the difficulty of the battle tripled!
Qi Ge could hardly bear to curse:

"Cheating! This is cheating!

Slapping the boss directly in the face?I wouldn't believe it if it wasn't intentional.

Fortunately, I grabbed the development speed regardless of the cost.

If I don't build the city now, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to build the city at all.

Oops, I can see where the [Ghostly Land] appears, but Smith can't. I must immediately notify her to send troops to clean up the [Ghostly Land], and the skulls must not accumulate. "

(End of this chapter)
