I am the Scourge

Chapter 126 Defense Tower

Li Wei withdrew from the ruins after his initial exploration. The outer area was filled with cage-like metal houses. It was expected that even if there were precious items, they would not appear here.

However, he kept an eye out and placed a team of undead units at each exit of the ruins to search the slaves in order to prevent the treasure from being taken away by these guys.

As long as the undead unit does not enter the range of the barrier, the guard's attack mechanism will not be triggered. If a slave dies, it is impossible to actively attack the activated guard.

Li Wei's enslaving them is only equivalent to mastering their personal freedom. Correspondingly, Li Wei needs force to control them, otherwise the so-called enslavement will not have the slightest effect.

But even if he controlled the liberty of the slaves, he could not control their hearts.

The human race is an intelligent unit. Once they have the opportunity, they will definitely run away and resist. Unlike those low-level undead, as long as they have more power than them, they can obtain their absolute loyalty.

This is true of any intelligent race, no one would like to live under the slavery of others.

Li Wei also discovered that this enslavement ability seems to be very strong, but there are actually serious hidden dangers.

At the cost of the goodwill and hatred of the entire ethnic group, you can get a unit that will never be loyal to you. The key is that these units are always thinking about rebellion and riots, stripping themselves of their skin and bone, and tying them to the stake.

No matter how you look at it, it is a deal that loses money.

With the original ruling mode of the undead clan, as long as they don't die and recruit units that are low in loyalty, high in ambition, and much stronger than themselves, they won't have any concerns about this at all.

But having said that, this is also the reason why the undead race is against more than [-]% of the biological races.

This is the characteristic of the undead.

Except for the undead, the undead race has no units that are particularly suitable for production and construction. From the beginning of their birth, in their broken consciousness, they only have the single thought of devouring the souls of other units to strengthen themselves.

Without enslaving other races, the construction speed of the undead race can only be described as touching.

Terran units build at least three times faster than undead units.

The reason why Li Wei enslaved the human race units of the three major gangs was that the human race itself was a deadly enemy with the undead clan. They fought all the year round, which caused the human race to accumulate too much hatred towards the undead, and it was basically impossible to resolve it.

But when facing other races that don't have such strong hatred for the undead, whether to use the enslavement authority has to be reconsidered.

Searching the slaves was the first step.

Li Wei then transferred nearly half of the fourth-order mutant units to form three tight lines of defense to prevent players from approaching the ruins.

He always felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere.

Di Ri's reminder was one aspect, and Sunshine of Baihutang didn't mention the issue of the ruins at all when he was negotiating the deal with him. The more they deliberately ignored this matter, the more interested they were in the things in the ruins.

But the other party knew that he would never give them part of the relics he got, and that was indeed the case.

He is fully capable of exploring this ruin independently, why should he distribute it to them?

Therefore, it is inevitable for them to send a professional team to snatch it secretly without sending out a large force to go to war directly.

This was already expected by Li Wei, but he always felt that there would be other changes...

Song of Iron and Blood?

A thought suddenly flashed in Li Wei's mind.

As long as the senior officials of Baihutang are not stupid, they will definitely block the news of the ruins. In this way, they only need to compete with themselves.

The gap in high-end combat power between the two sides is obvious, and they have an absolute advantage.

And once other guilds are attracted, their advantages will disappear.

In the final analysis, Baihutang has only just risen, and it does not have the background of an old and powerful club. Most of this background is reflected in the accumulation of professional players. The existence of professional leagues is an important source of income for big guilds.

Just like Song of Iron and Blood, they have star-level professional players like Zhan Linglong, who can create hundreds of millions of profits a year.

And what do professional players rely on?
strength.

The professional team that Baihutang just formed has not even participated in the league, why should it compete with a top player like Zhan Linglong who has been famous for many years?

In order not to attract other tigers and hungry wolves to snatch "their" profits, they will only block the news stronger than themselves.

But the problem is, before he snatched the city building order of Song of Iron and Blood, the news of the ruins could barely be suppressed and spread in a small area.

Now the people from Song of Iron and Blood are frantically inquiring about their own news on the forum, and this matter has long since been covered up.

There are thousands of Baihutang players who know the existence of the ruins, and it is too difficult to seal the mouths of so many people.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Wei is basically sure that the people in Song of Iron and Blood will most likely know the news, and they will not let it go. This is their only chance to recover their losses.

In this way, the enemies he has to face are not only the professional team of Baihutang, but also the top professional players of Song of Iron and Blood.

After all, the people from Song of Iron and Blood made a lot of noise on the forum, causing many people to watch.

After they understand the whole story, the remaining five days are enough for them to rush over and get involved.

All of this is the consequence of snatching the city building order himself, but if Li Wei chooses again, he will never regret it and will definitely grab it again. The first city building order in the whole server is of great significance.

The good news right now is that they are also in a competitive relationship with each other, and they will not all be hostile to themselves. In other words, they don't have to solve it by themselves. They will fight internally, but they are still their enemies in the end.

Li Wei was a little nervous. After the previous battles, he had already discovered the shortcomings of his team.

It is himself.

He is the key person to control the team. As long as the other players are not stupid, they can see this. If they kill themselves first regardless of everything, the remaining units will be useless except for Theodora.

How to increase your survival rate?

Li Wei thought hard, his defensive attributes were strong enough, and he was almost taken away by Ye Xiao before.

Moreover, this is when he gave up his professional advantages and confronted himself head-on as an assassin.

This kind of top assassin player's accomplishments in assassination can only be described as terrifying, and it is extremely difficult to guard against, at least for him. Once he is targeted by such a person, all Li Wei can do is to die for them.

Mir has the medium-level stealth breaking ability, which can break the concealment effect of skills or props that do not exceed the rare level, but these guys even sell perfect equipment in complete sets, so it is difficult to guarantee that they have not mastered perfect-level skills.

Relatively speaking.

Perfect-level hidden-breaking items and equipment are even more precious.

Li Wei saw several props on the trading platform, each of which cost tens of thousands of starting points, but there was no equipment at all.

It's not that he was reluctant to spend the money, but he had a better solution than spending tens of thousands of dollars on one-off props.

One is the feather of the phoenix.

The feather of the phoenix can revive him in place, giving him an extra life.

For players at this stage, resurrection props and skills are quite rare. It can be seen from the previous battle with Song of Iron and Blood that even professional players have not mastered resurrection skills.

In fact, this is a mistake in Li Wei's judgment.

Although resurrection skills are extremely rare, as a nurse in a professional team, she still has one.It's just that under the full coverage of the black sun, the nurse died before the output, and there was no chance to use it...

The second is the Arcane Robe.

This equipment comes with a knockback special skill. There are two types of knockback judgments for arcane waves. One is that the strength attribute is higher than 80 points, and the second is that the constitution attribute is higher than 80 points. If one of the two judgments fails, they will be forced to repel .

The former is still possible for a top-level assassin with perfect equipment, but it is impossible for the physical attribute.

Moreover, after Li Wei's test, the arcane wave can be released twice in a row. The price is that if the second arcane wave is released in a short period of time, the durability value of the equipment will be greatly reduced.

This is not a problem, the durability value can be repaired, as long as it does not drop to 0 and is not damaged, it will be fine.

Two arcane fluctuations can fully guarantee one's own survivability.

As for the third level of protection, Mana Barrier, this skill is equivalent to doubling one's health, and it is also very powerful, but he is a legal profession after all, and without mana, more than half of it will be crippled.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, Li Wei is unwilling to activate the mana barrier, and those top assassins are fully capable of emptying his mana in an instant.

This triple guarantee alone is not enough.

Li Wei realized that he should learn some new skills. The average player has mastered at least a dozen skills at this stage, but he still only has six skills because he seldom fights in person.

Moreover, the skills of the team members must also be carefully selected. At present, only Xiong Da is relatively reasonable.

Xiong Da has a total of four skills, Thunder Comes into the World, Shocking Ring, Chain Lightning, and Feral Roar.

Among them, Feral Roar is a buff skill, and the other three skills can make it more fleshy, and it also comes with control. The only flaw is the lack of taunting ability, which makes its meat shield positioning not as stable as expected.

Then there is Mill, who urgently needs a remote output capability.

Li Wei thought about it, and began to select skills suitable for team members to replace on the trading platform.

……

The night was shrouded, and there were thousands of Kongming lanterns suspended in the sky, providing light for the deep pit. Inside the light blue barrier, countless slaves came and went, cleaning up the fallen soil and rubble in the most primitive way.

Dust-covered buildings were excavated, and an ancient guardian was awakened correspondingly. The undead in black armor and the silver-white moon-eye guard fought together, fighting in silence.

boom!
Suddenly a loud explosion caught Li Wei's attention.

He looked up, and saw that the tower-like domed buildings in the ruins were gathering light, and the circles of ring-shaped eyes were flickering, emitting bright lasers, causing violent roars.

Defense tower...? !

Li Wei looked surprised.

He finally knew what those strange buildings with spheres were for.

But for some reason, these defense towers did not show their effect in the previous battle.

It wasn't until half of the relics were cleared that they activated one by one and began to clean up the invading undead army.

Ordinary moon eye guards can easily kill undead units, not to mention these amazingly powerful defense towers, a dozen undead were directly destroyed in one shot, and there was no residue left.

It is estimated that even Theodora may not be able to withstand that power.

The casualties of the undead army increased rapidly, and Li Wei had to withdraw all the troops from the ruins. He did not bless the state of war now, and the dead undead units were dead for nothing, which did not bring any benefits.

After the defense tower is activated, the casualty ratio between the undead unit and the Moon Eye Guard reaches 100:1.

The cost of cleaning up the thirty or so guards was even more severe than fighting the troops of Baihutang.

This loss has exceeded Li Wei's tolerance limit.

The undead army quickly withdrew from the ruins, and the Moon Eye guards chased and killed them a hundred meters away from the barrier before returning.

This shows that they are not unable to leave the barrier, but they are just unwilling to leave the barrier. Within the range of the light blue light, they seem to be able to enjoy some kind of special buff effect.

The defense tower fell into a dormant state again after the undead withdrew from the barrier.

However, based on Li Wei's experience, the defensive towers of the ruins are by no means unable to attack enemies outside the barrier.

Otherwise, what's the point of building them?
The defense tower is to prevent the enemy from invading the territory, not to clean up the enemies who have invaded the territory. They stop attacking. Levi guessed that the most likely reason is the problem of energy loss.

The Eye of the Moon ruins have been established for hundreds of thousands of years at least, and it still has the energy to maintain the operation of the entire ruins. In Li Wei's view, it is already an incredible thing.

It takes a lot of energy to maintain the operation of the high-power defense tower. If the undead army had not invaded the middle of the ruins this time, making the unknown existence feel threatened, the defense tower would not be easily activated.

Of course, this is just my own guess.

Li Wei pondered for a moment, then divided an undead army into teams of ten.

He commanded these dozens of troops to enter the territory from various directions. Sure enough, only the guards came to stop them at first. It was not until a small team broke into the central ring of the ruins that the defense towers were activated again.

boom!boom!
There was a frantic bombardment.

With the cleaning of the guards, none of the sneaked undead units were spared.

But this attempt allowed Levi to learn another important piece of information. The defense tower will only attack enemies on the streets. As long as the undead units hide in the buildings of the ruins, the defense tower will give up attacking the target.

Or.

Not even defense towers can destroy these bizarre metal structures.

Li Wei saw with his own eyes an energy beam bombarding a square-shaped metal hut without leaving any traces on it. The texture of these buildings is extremely hard and difficult to destroy.

This also made Li Wei give up the idea of ​​adjusting dozens of Garros heavy artillery to bombard the ruins.

The defense tower can't be solved temporarily, but the guards must be cleared, they will block the digging progress of the slaves.

Moreover, Li Wei has discovered that as long as the undead do not enter the middle ring, they will not attract the attack of the defense tower. He used this rule to lead all the Moon Eye guards to the outer ring area of ​​the ruins, and then solve them one by one.

After cleaning up all the guards hovering in the middle of the ruins, Li Wei's lunar power has reached 127 points.
