Chapter 508: Ruins
Norwich glanced at him, smiled slightly, and said, "Just ask your captain about this. The update is the fastest." He handed the scroll of the encyclopedia in his hand to Ian, "This is the pattern of mysterious footprints and mission records. , I don't need to tell you the rest of the rules."
"No." Ian took the scroll of the encyclopedia and watched Norwich leave, then lowered his head and opened the scroll.
Ruby, Eugene, Luna and the others immediately looked closer. I saw a "y"-shaped three-claw footprint on the scroll. Two slender footprints in the front were forked, and a slightly shorter footprint at the back controlled the balance. Below the footprints, there were extremely meticulously sketched wasteland ruins, with deep footprints. stuck in the ground.
Next to the footprints are the measured lines. The two front paws are seven centimeters long and the hind paws three centimeters. The total is 1.1 meters, which is equivalent to the length of half the body of an ordinary person, and the width is six centimeters. The height is three centimeters.
The indication of these data almost revealed a lot of information about this monster.
"Martin, what kind of monster do you think this is?" Ian tilted his head and asked Martin next to him.
Martin stared at the pattern on the scroll and pondered: "I've never seen it before, but from the claw shape, it should be a crawling monster, and most crawling monsters are cold-blooded monsters who like to stay in sticky and damp places."
Eugene asked curiously, "Why is it a crawling monster? Are there many monsters with such claw shapes?"
Martin glanced at him and frowned slightly. He was a little impatient with these ignorant newcomers, but now that the task was imminent, he didn't bother to care about anything with him, and said coldly: "This can be done from the height of stepping on it. It has been observed that if it is not a crawling monster, it is an upright monster. Based on such a large footprint, its height and volume should be very amazing, so the footprints left will not be so shallow."
Eugene came to a realization and kept nodding his head.
Ian stared at the footprints for a while, put away the scroll, and said to the crowd: "Okay, let's talk about it on the way, time is running out, all go to change equipment, prepare to go, remember to bring supplies, if you find this mysterious footprint If so, this additional mission may hopefully be completed, but it will take a lot of time, and the supply must never be interrupted.”
"Yes." The crowd took orders.
Return to the residence room and put on the equipment prepared earlier.
Both Du Dian and Eugene received the basic standard equipment of Longhuang Guard issued by the above. This is a set of dark-colored battle armor. The material is like metal and plastic. It tightly wraps the body. The wrists, the sides of the knees, etc., are embedded with tiny sparkling crystals.
Du Di'an has seen this crystal from Hathaway's wrist,
It is a meteorite, which can greatly isolate the high-intensity radiation outside the wall.
In addition to this set of basic standard armor, the weapons of the two are also basic weapons. Du Dian's reported occupation is an archer, and he received a bow. The whole body of the bow is silver and the lines are extremely beautiful, but the ends of the bow are very sharp, like two strange teeth, and the bow string is dark red, like a full blood vessel, and the pulling force is extremely strong. Pulling to the full circle also requires 60-70% of the strength.
Although it is a basic weapon, in terms of the equipment of Longhuangwei, it can be regarded as an extremely powerful magic weapon.
After wearing the equipment, the rest is supplies. This is an extremely sturdy black suitcase. It is made of glue-like material and can be waterproof and thermally insulated. It is filled with twelve food boxes and two bottles of pure water.
Du Dian estimated that these supplies are enough for a normal primary boundary person to eat and drink for 12 days. If it is saved a little, it can maintain food for half a month.
He didn't care too much about food. After all, he spent three years training as a scavenger and knew how to find food and water outside the wall, and it was impossible for hunters and dragon guards to spend time learning this knowledge. . Instead of wasting time learning how to survive, they might as well spend this time learning how to fight, which can increase their strength, complete the task faster, and come back faster.
And to survive... no matter how much you struggle, once you encounter a powerful monster, you are all dead.
Soon, everyone was fully equipped.
Du Di'an soon saw that the black Ruby in the team was carrying a huge burden, which was full of water and food, and the amount he carried was much more than their standard amount. The food of this burden alone, It was comparable to the sum of the food that the other six of them carried.
Du Dian glanced at it and understood that Ian was planning to keep his hand. Carrying too much food outside the wall would slow down the movement, but they were not acting alone, but a team.
Therefore, Ruby's main responsibility in the early stage is to keep these foods, and the battle can be handed over to others.
This is the efficiency of the team.
When it was time to set off, everyone finally had a full meal again, and then left the Dragon Clan.
Ian led the team and rode the dragon horse specially trained by the dragon tribe to the outer passage in the inner wall area.
"Captain, how long will we be going this time, and when will we be back?" Eugene asked Ian on a horse.
Ian said: "The merit reward for the main mission this time is quite high, there are 700. When the mission is completed, we will come back at any time. Otherwise, we will deduct 700 merits and spread them evenly to everyone. One hundred feats!"
"One hundred merits, it's not too much, we went to perform such a dangerous mission, and only got so many merits, it's too stingy!" Eugene complained.
Ian turned his head and glanced at him, and said, "One hundred merits is not bad, and it can be exchanged for a lot of things."
Eugene looked at a strangely styled war knife around his waist and asked curiously, "Like your knife?"
Ian smiled indifferently and said, "This 'Blood Drink' has more than 100 merits. It is a weapon made from the front teeth of the 52-level 'Flat-toothed Beast'. When it was exchanged, it was used for I have eight hundred and fifty meritorious deeds."
"So much?" Eugene stuttered and asked, "Is there anything special about this knife? It cuts iron like mud? It seems that this knife of mine can do it too."
The black Ruby next to him listened to his ignorance, rolled his eyes and said, "What kind of bird do you use for this broken knife? When you encounter a monster with a hunting level of fifty or more, you can't cut it! It cuts iron like mud? Iron counts. What, the skin and scales of these monsters are many times harder than iron, and a broken knife like yours will be broken after being slapped by the monster's claws a few times, do you understand how hard it is?"
Eugene listened to his choking sound, froze for a while, and suddenly came to his senses.
Du Dian followed behind on horseback, feeling a little strange in his heart. Although this Eugene is also a newcomer, he seems... He doesn't understand the battle outside the wall at all. Didn't he go outside the wall once?
"By the way, Captain." Eugene suddenly remembered something and asked curiously, "What are the first and second additional tasks that the person said earlier?"
Ian galloped in the wilderness with a horse rope, without turning his head back: "The first and second additional tasks are the old tasks. Almost every time a task is performed, these two additional tasks are there and are permanent tasks. First The additional task is to find the relics or relics of the last era, as long as you provide clues or directly provide the coordinates of the relics, you can get huge merits."
"The second is to collect a plant called 'dragon grass'. It is said that this thing is the favorite food of dragon worms. Each dragon grass can be exchanged for ten merits."
Eugene was taken aback and asked, "Relics of the Shang Dynasty? What are the relics of the Shang Dynasty? Are they the ruins outside the wall?"
Ian said: "Of course not, these ruins have been scrapped, including the tattered copper and iron in the ruins, they have also been corroded by the disaster rain, what I'm looking for is the ruins, which are the intact Shangji human beings preserved inside. The remains of dead corpses, or items that have not been damaged in the last era, these remains are generally closed places, hidden underground, or in some mountains."
