Chapter 588 New Talent [Prehistoric Giant Beast]

After roughly planning a complete five-stage cleanup plan for the Demonized Swamp area, Zhang Yanhang began to estimate how long it would take him to clean up the entire Demonized Swamp.

Previously, it only took Zhang Yanhang four and a half minutes to clear an area of ​​one square kilometer in the Goblin Plains. However, due to environmental restrictions in the Demonic Swamp here, judging from Zhang Yanhang's hunting experience, he may need It takes ten minutes to clear one square kilometer.

Moreover, he did not overestimate this time like he did in the Goblin Plains before. Instead, he felt that cleaning one square kilometer in ten minutes would be his ultimate speed. It was entirely possible that something bigger would happen during the actual cleaning process. Clearing one square kilometer in ten minutes appears at a slower pace.

When clearing the Goblin Plains before, Zhang Yanhang initially estimated the cleaning speed of one square kilometer in ten minutes, but he was trying to be as high as possible. In the end, it turned out that he was indeed overestimating, and he even estimated it directly. Twice as high, it actually only takes five minutes to clear a square kilometer.

But although the overestimation at that time was also intentional, it was mainly because he had never encountered that kind of plain area at that time. He didn't know that the plain area could improve hunting efficiency so obviously.

Now, because he felt the beauty of the plain area, Zhang Yanhang became cautious in his assessment of the forest area. After all, plains and forests can basically be said to be two extremes.

Therefore, if nothing else happens, how much the plains will increase his hunting efficiency, how much the forest area will reduce him. Therefore, the ten-minute estimate is indeed as low as possible. If there is a slight increase in the middle, If something unexpected happened, it might take eleven or even twelve minutes to clear one square kilometer.

"The Demonized Swamp area covers a total area of ​​400 square kilometers. If it takes me ten minutes to clear one square kilometer, then it should take me almost 4,000 minutes to clear the entire Demonized Swamp. In conversion, That’s almost 67 hours.

If you think about it this way, it's not bad. After all, I still have almost a hundred hours to use.

But the problem is, besides hunting, I still need to rest. As a result, time is not enough. But if you exclude the cleaning time of the core area, it should save a lot of time. After all, there are basically no monsters there. "

Zhang Yanhang recalculated after removing the swamp area and found that only seven hours of time had been saved, and it would still take nearly sixty hours to clear the entire demonized swamp.

"Although sixty hours is indeed still a lot, but if I grit my teeth with the three to two work-break ratio, I should be able to endure it. Moreover, if I really can't endure it, I will eat more green herbs. This way , the time to clean up the Demonized Swamp area should be almost enough."

Although it stands to reason that a ratio of three to two between work and rest is quite generous, the problem is that Zhang Yanhang’s rest is a hard target because his physical recovery speed has not been improved recently. Therefore, he actually needs to work for as many hours as he needs. The ratio of the number of hours of rest is about one to one.

Moreover, this ratio is difficult to change. After all, if the rest time is not enough, the physical strength will not be fully restored, which will affect the subsequent battery life. Therefore, three to two is indeed more difficult for Zhang Yanhang. Besides, this ratio It was actually not normal.

Originally, he was equivalent to working twelve hours a day and taking twelve hours of rest, but now he is equivalent to working fourteen and a half hours of work and taking nine and a half hours of rest. It is far better than the fact that he is an awakened person, so he can survive. Normal people have died suddenly dozens of times.

After all, normal people generally work on an eight-hour work system, with eight hours of work and 16 hours of rest. The work-rest ratio is about one to two, which can be considered quite relaxed.

"Alas, the area of ​​the Demonized Swamp is indeed a bit too big, covering four hundred square kilometers, which is more than twice the size of the Goblin Plains, the Small Hematite Ant Nest Daragu, and Raccoon City combined.

If calculated individually, one Demonized Swamp is equivalent to four Goblin Plains, ten Raccoon Cities, and ten small red iron ant nests, Daragu.

Moreover, compared to Goblin Plains, Raccoon City and the small red iron ant nest Daragu, the combined area of ​​the three districts of Qindao City is also about two hundred square kilometers. Therefore, if If I could clear out the Demonized Swamp, it would be equivalent to clearing out the three districts in the city twice.

I didn't expect that I would unknowingly grow to the point where I could quickly clear out county-level units just by relying on level A. In the early stages of spiritual energy recovery, I could be judged as a fourth-level awakener. However, with the help of It is completely meaningless to become a fourth-level awakened person with this unreliable rating method. "

Although the area of ​​the Demonic Swamp is indeed very large, Zhang Yanhang feels that he can persevere as long as he grits his teeth. It is time for the four-digit green herbs he had accumulated in his pocket to be 'loyal' to him.

If the physical exertion was really high during the process, all the green herbs he had stored in his pocket might be reimbursed, but fortunately, considering that he won't need the green herbs after he reaches the third level, so, overall, there is no problem. big.

Besides, in addition to green herbs, he also has backup hidden energy. He has long been prepared to use spiritual energy to increase his movement speed by taking drugs.

As long as the situation is not optimistic, he can take a large amount of drugs immediately without hesitation. Anyway, when he cleans up the Goblin Plains again, he can get about a thousand bottles of medium-sized magic recovery potions again, so it should not be a big problem, um, maybe.

"Although time is indeed tight, there are always more solutions than difficulties. It should be possible to clean up the four hundred square kilometers this time as long as there are no accidents in the process. But although it is possible to clean up the Demonic Swamp, it can be done It’s not certain how much time is left after demonizing the swamp.”

Zhang Yanhang originally thought that if the cleanup progress in the Demonic Swamp was satisfactory and there was still a lot of time left, he would clean up Raccoon City and Goblin Plains again before returning to the main world, but now it seems that this matter may be a bit hanging.

But fortunately, you can still clean it up next time you come here, but Zhang Yanhang will be at level three next time. If a third-level awakener hunts first-level monsters, if nothing unexpected happens, the level punishment will definitely be much higher than it is now, and even Doubling it is not impossible.

Therefore, Zhang Yanhang will definitely lose part of the treasure chest income by then. Maybe there will be a situation. Although he waited a few more days for more monsters to spawn in Raccoon City and Goblin Plains, the overall income will be the same as now. Clean up the situation.

Therefore, if possible, Zhang Yanhang feels that it is best to clean up Raccoon City and Goblin Plains before leaving the Ashes World. However, this matter cannot be forced. It can only be done after seeing the specific situation at that time. Make a decision.

"Since the cleanup plan for the Demonized Swamp area has been roughly planned, then, without further ado, let's start implementing the cleanup plan immediately. First, we will kill the first-order three-star demonized hyena to test the waters. Therefore, I Choose option one, step left foot first.”

After Zhang Yanhang made his choice, the time pause disappeared instantly. At the same time, he immediately began to implement the contents of the first choice and went to kill the demonized hyena in the option. During the previous scanning process, Its location has been found, next to a creek not far from here, and it seems to be drinking water.

From the appearance point of view, the appearance of the demonized hyena is quite strange. The overall shape is somewhat similar to the African hyena that Zhang Yanhang saw in the animal world before, but the face is not very similar.

The face of the demonized hyena is very long and flat, a bit like a donkey's face and a horse's face combined, and then flattened by a punch. To put it more simply, it is a rectangular pie. Most of the hair on the face and body is tan, with only a few white stripes on the back.

The ordinary African hyena has a rounder face and a sharp mouth. Although it has brown hair like the demonized hyena, there are no stripes on its body. Instead, it has a large number of black spots, which is somewhat similar. In Dalmatians.

Of course, the biggest difference between the two is the size difference. The average African hyena can grow to a maximum size of about one meter, and that includes the length of the tail, so in fact, the size is at most It is a medium-sized dog.

The demonized hyena in front of Zhang Yanhang was already three meters long, not counting its tail. Compared with ordinary African hyenas, it was the difference between father and son.

Moreover, you must know that the average adult African lion is only one and a half meters long, excluding the tail. Therefore, the length of the demonized hyena alone is approximately equal to that of two African lions.

And, in addition, the demonized hyena is more than one meter tall at the shoulders, and is about the same height as an ordinary person on all fours. It can be said to be quite strong, exactly like a skinny and small African hyena. They are two extremes.

Zhang Yanhang initially wanted to stand in the bushes on one side and observe the demonized hyena more, but he didn't know whether it smelled something or heard something, so it actually jumped towards him, more than ten meters away. In the blink of an eye, the demonized hyena opened its meter-long bloody mouth and bit Zhang Yanhang's head.

At first, Zhang Yanhang thought about grabbing the demonized hyena by the neck, but later he discovered that although the demonized hyena was three meters long, its head took up one-third of the body and was one meter long. It seemed that the demonized hyena had no neck. , the head is thicker than the body, as if the whole body's nutrition is used to supply the head, which can be said to be quite outrageous.

Therefore, facing this demonized hyena whose head-to-body ratio and related structures look like a crocodile, Zhang Yanhang’s hand can’t hold the thinnest part of its body at all, which is worse than the Goblin Shaman’s totem pole. It is also many times thicker. If Zhang Yanhang wants to hold it by force, the only result would be to crush it directly.

And Zhang Yanhang didn't want to kill the demonized hyena now. After all, he didn't have time to check its attribute list. Therefore, although Zhang Yanhang subconsciously stretched out his hands and opened his mouth at the beginning, in the end he just sat back and watched the demonized beast. The hyena bit his head. At that moment, Zhang Yanhang suddenly felt that it was getting dark.

Looking at the dark mouth in front of him and the brown-black tongue with sharp barbs, Zhang Yanhang could only say that demonized creatures are indeed different from ordinary creatures. After all, ordinary mammals generally have pink tongues, and the inside of the mouth should be relatively soft.

As for the demonized hyena, the mouth part looks and feels very hard, a bit like a turtle. It must be crunchy when chewing bones without having to worry about sharp bone fragments scratching the mouth.

But after briefly observing the inside of the demonized hyena's mouth, Zhang Yanhang did not forget his initial purpose, so he immediately began to take advantage of the demonized hyena to chew on his head and began to check its attributes. list.

The giant hyena was a very successful prehistoric predator among the ancient carnodonts. Its huge head gave it a very keen sense of smell and could track prey for a long time, because the powerful sense of smell replaced vision to a certain extent.

At night, the giant hyena would track its prey with great intensity and use its powerful jaws to directly crush the prey's bones after catching up. Perhaps because it could survive even if it hunted alone, the giant hyena did not Without the habit of living in groups, people will only stay in small groups as a family unit.

The giant hyena has become an extremely active hunter because of its ability to take the initiative. Its strong sense of smell, good endurance and strong explosive power make it good at both close-range ambush and mid-to-long-distance pursuit. Performance.
