Chapter 574 Cat's Eye Gem
On October 24th, Frost's Fall, which was also Zhang Yanhang's first day entering the world of ashes, at 11:50 p.m., the small red iron ant nest Dalagu, in the inner area, was a dark and cramped nameless fork road full of dead bodies .
Zhang Yanhang grabbed the head of the red iron worker ant in front of him and crushed it directly. Whether it was the hard exoskeleton armor, the fragile flesh tissue, or the most important simple ganglion that drives the brain function, all of them were instantly crushed by Zhang Yanhang. Kneaded into a puddle of minced meat.
A large amount of red thick body fluid flew high and splashed onto the surrounding walls during the squeezing process, and a small part flowed out from Zhang Yanhang's fingers and finally dripped slowly to the ground and other thick red body fluids. The body fluids merged and turned into a narrow crimson river of blood due to the influence of gravitational potential energy.
Looking at the flesh and blood mixture of exoskeleton armor, mouthpart fragments and antennae in his hand, Zhang Yanhang felt a little disgusted, so he threw it out and smashed it on the last few red iron worker ants in the small red iron ant nest Dalagu.
In Zhang Yanhang's hands, the soft, mud-like mixture of flesh and tissue was accelerated by speed, and various sharp and hard exoskeleton armor pieces and mouthpart fragments inside shot out like shotguns. The last few red iron worker ants left A large number of holes were punched in their bodies, and their lives were quickly harvested.

"It took me more than seven hours, and I finally hunted down all the 3,000 red iron worker ants in the red iron worker ants." After killing all the red iron worker ants, Zhang Yanhang looked at the time on his watch, " I didn't expect it to be eleven fifty, and the teleportation channel will be closed in the last ten minutes."
"But fortunately, I am not the same person I used to be. In the past, I had to worry about the time it would take to run back to the teleportation channel, but now, I only need to use the teleportation technique to save a lot of time spent on the return journey." time."
Zhang Yanhang remembered that it took him nearly 50 minutes to run all the way back from here last time. Although the movement speed has increased, it should take at least half an hour to run back.
Therefore, from this aspect, teleportation is indeed very useful to him. It is one of the most important spells among the thirty-five spells he has learned, alongside the advanced enlargement and advanced rage.
Zhang Yanhang stood there and waited for a few seconds, picked up the treasure chests of the two red iron worker ants and put them in his pocket, and then directly activated the teleportation technique to teleport back to the C-shaped passage.
"Since there are only ten minutes left, I don't want to move any more. I'd better stay here until the teleportation channel is closed. However, before that, I need to continue to clear the third prize pool of the lucky slot machine again. .”
At present, the third prize pool of the lucky slot machine has been refreshed, and Zhang Yanhang immediately began to pull the metal joystick on the side of the lucky slot machine.
As the metal rocker was pulled, the small red iron ant nest Dalagu fell into time suspension again in an instant, and hundreds of densely packed text option boxes appeared in front of his eyes.
? [Please select the specific content of the lucky slot machine for this lottery]
[Option 1: ??? (Third Prize, Red Iron Worker Ant, Tier 1 Star, Common Monster.)]
[Option 2: ?????? (Third Prize, Red Iron Flying Ant, Tier 1 Star, Elite Monster.)]
[Option 3: ??? (Third Prize, Red Iron Soldier Ant, Tier 1, 2 Star, Common Monster.)]
...
[Option thirty-seven: ??? (third prize,
Red Iron Ant King, Tier 2, 2 Star, Elite Monster. )]
...
[Option sixty-five: ??? (Third prize, red iron breeding ants, first-level three stars, ordinary monsters.)]
...
[Option 121: ★☆★ (Fourth prize, thank you for your patronage, no real prizes.)]
...
After successfully triggering the options, Zhang Yanhang carefully checked the specific options, but found that the prize pool of the slot machine still hadn't changed much this time, "Sure enough, we still can't expect too much from the prize pool of the slot machine."
"So, I choose option one, the first-order one-star ordinary monster red iron worker ants." After quickly reading the options, Zhang Yanhang quickly made a specific choice.
…………
[Successfully kill the first-order one-star monster 'Red Iron Flying Ant (Elite)' x 1, soul point +7. 】
[Successfully kill the first-order one-star monster 'Red Iron Flying Ant (Elite)' x 1, soul point +7. 】
[Successfully kill the first-order one-star monster 'Red Iron Flying Ant (Elite)' x 1, soul point +7. 】
...
After successfully killing all the red iron ants with a wave of death, Zhang Yanhang stood on the spot and began to wait quietly for the refresh of the dropped treasure chests. After about a few seconds, the ground of the C-shaped passage was scattered Eight dropped treasure chests appeared, spanning the three levels of green, blue and purple.
"Fuck! Did my luck finally explode? I only killed a hundred red iron ants but harvested eight dropped treasure chests."
Moreover, what surprised Zhang Yanhang the most was that the red iron ant king in the prize pool also dropped a treasure box this time, which is a bit outrageous. He had just killed the second red iron ant king but inexplicably got it. A dropped treasure chest.
Zhang Yanhang picked up the eight dropped treasure boxes on the ground and checked them carefully. He found that the Red Iron Worker Ant, the Red Iron Flying Ant and the Red Iron Soldier Ant all dropped two treasure boxes, and the rest were red iron breeding ants. Ants and Red Iron Ant Kings each drop a treasure chest.
"It's normal for red iron breeding ants to drop treasure chests. After all, there are eighteen ants in total for the two prize pools, but the red iron flying ants and red iron soldier ants are a bit strange. The two prize pools add up to only fifty ants. That's all... In this way, it may indeed be my luck this time."
Apart from better luck, Zhang Yanhang couldn't think of any other reason at all. After all, he didn't interfere with the prize pool during the whole process.
"I thought it would be possible to drop it when I came to clean up the monster's lair next time, but I didn't expect it to drop in advance now, which is a good thing, so that I can immediately use the Makarov suit Combines."
Zhang Yanhang is really looking forward to the change brought about by the promotion of Makarov's suit from dark purple to light gold, and it's been a long time coming, and he's been looking forward to it for more than a week.
"But although I'm really looking forward to it, I'm sure I can't open the treasure chest right now. Let's wait until I return to the main world before opening this dropped treasure chest."
Zhang Yanhang glanced at the time on his watch, it was already 11:55, only five minutes was obviously not enough to open the three-digit drop treasure box in Zhang Yanhang's hand, or wait until after returning to the main world It would be better to have a meeting together, anyway, it's just an extra five minutes of waiting.
Zhang Yanhang didn't have any other things to solve in these five minutes, so he simply lay down on the ground, which could help him recover a little bit of physical strength, although it was just respawned in Daragu from hunting small red iron ant nests. However, the red iron worker ants still consumed a lot of physical strength of Zhang Yanhang.
After all, in this hunting process, Zhang Yanhang not only has to maintain the scanning ability of seeking good luck and avoiding evil at all times, but also often uses the death wave skill to kill red iron worker ants through the wall, which is basically not much different from formal hunting.
Therefore, Zhang Yanhang, who had been cleaning up for nearly seven and a half hours in a row before killing the 3,000 red iron worker ants in the small red iron ant nest Dalagu, might be considered a strange thing if his physical strength was not exhausted.
Moreover, Zhang Yanhang also used this hunt to roughly calculate the degree of physical energy consumption after being promoted to the original LV. But it increased the physical exertion by almost two times.
Although doubling the physical consumption seems a lot, it is basically a very good result. After all, Zhang Yanhang thought that the consumption should be at least doubled when he estimated before, and if it was a little more, it would be a good result. May increase consumption by five times or even more.
Therefore, from this point of view, it is indeed very good to only double the physical consumption. It belongs to the former, at least it is within the acceptable range of Zhang Yanhang, so that his battery life will not be greatly reduced.
However, the result after the previous upgrade to LV.MAX was exactly the opposite, and it belonged to the latter. At that time, the skill consumption of seeking good luck and avoiding evil increased several times in one breath, resulting in a significant decrease in Zhang Yanhang's battery life, and correspondingly As a result, Zhang Yanhang's hunting process became much more difficult.
Moreover, this time, apart from the fact that the increase in the consumption of the skills of seeking good luck and avoiding evil is not a lot of luck, it is even more fortunate that Zhang Yanhang increased his physical strength by about 40% by eating a lot of natural materials and earth treasures when he was in the main world. upper limit.
Therefore, although the skill consumption of seeking good luck and avoiding evil has doubled compared to before, it is offset by a higher upper limit of stamina, and correspondingly, his actual battery life has not only not been reduced, but has also been increased by a large amount.
According to Zhang Yanhang's estimation results from hunting monsters for a long time, he could work continuously for about nine hours before, but now, it is possible for him to work continuously for more than ten hours, or even eleven hours.
In other words, although he has been working continuously for seven and a half hours, he is far from reaching his limit. At least another two or three hours should be fine. It's time to take a break.
After all, hunting consumes a lot of physical strength, and it is impossible to work casually for four days and nights without rest like digging a tunnel. If Zhang Yanhang dares to do the same when hunting, then he will be the only one in the future. The result is estimated to be death from exhaustion.
Five minutes passed in a flash, and Zhang Yanhang felt as if he had just laid down, and a familiar text option box immediately appeared in front of his eyes.
[Do you want to return to the main world? 】
[Option 1: Yes (when you came to the small red iron ant nest Daragu last time, you improved and re-established a new red iron ant nest cleaning plan after rigorous exploration, although you encountered some changes in the middle , but you finally carried out your plan thoroughly and cleaned up the entire small red iron ant nest Dalagu.
This is the third time you have entered the small red iron ant nest Dalagu. You originally wanted to come here and continue digging underground tunnels to find new monster nests, but because you found the red iron worker ants in the small red iron ant nest Daragu refreshed The number of ants is a bit large, which makes you a little excited, so you spend the time digging tunnels on cleaning up the red iron worker ants.
But what you didn't expect is that it took a long time to clean up the red iron worker ants in the small red iron ant nest Dalagu. It was not completely emptied until the transmission channel was about to close. After cleaning the red iron worker ants, I felt a little tired You feel that the current self should go home and have a rest first, so as to recover and recover your strength. )]
[Option 2: Going home (Originally, you thought that your main work for entering the small red iron ant nest Daragu this time should be to dig the last three kilometers of red iron raw stone layers in the underground passage, but you didn’t expect that the plan could not keep up with the changes, and you have not waited for the official Start digging, and out of nowhere, tunneling suddenly seems useless to you.
After giving up the excavation work, you cleaned up the red iron worker ants respawned in the small red iron ant nest Dalagu and chose to return to the main world directly. After returning to the main world, you found the one near the stray cat den on the edge of the community The cat-faced old lady has mysteriously disappeared, replaced by a cat's eye gem that can increase the upper limit of physical strength. )]
[Option 3: No (after spending seven and a half hours to empty out the red iron ants in the entire small red iron ant nest Dalagu again, you, who are still relatively energetic, after learning the news that the transmission channel is about to close Choosing to ignore it, you feel that you may be able to go directly to the monster lair at the bottom of the underground tunnel for a new hunting activity.
But although your physical strength is indeed still relatively abundant, out of prudence, you still lie on the ground and sleep for eight hours, and then go to the underground tunnel and use any door to enter the new monster after your physical strength is fully recovered Lair, you are not reckless in the face of a new monster lair, but as always, decide to investigate it first before making a decision. )]
"How to say the first option, it's relatively common, but even though it's relatively common, it's also very useful. After all, I really want to return to the main world as soon as possible."
And if you want to ask why Zhang Yanhang wants to return to the main world as soon as possible, it is naturally because he is in a hurry to go back to open the treasure chest. He obviously has a lot of treasure chests in his hand but cannot open them due to time constraints. This is indeed quite uncomfortable.
