Chapter 513: Solving the Problem

"What happened?" My exclamation attracted the attention of Christina and the others.

"I didn't see the devil come out of that cave over there," I replied.

After hearing this, Christina looked at the heart in Zhenhong's hand with a little surprise, then frowned and said, "But the heart on the other side of Zhenhong has obviously been unsealed!"

"It looks like this, but I really didn't see any demon coming out of the cave over there. Maybe..." I suddenly reacted. "Damn, that demon isn't in the cave!"

We could find female demons in the vertical shaft before, which means that these demons are actually running around in the entire underground space. They actually have no fixed range of activities at all. Therefore, if there are demons in the lair, there are naturally many outside. If you put it this way, there are actually big loopholes in the preparations we made before. My ghost bug only monitored the route over the cave. If the first unsealed female demon came from somewhere else, and what if the female demon's movement brought a group of female demons? If the devils act together, then we may be in trouble. Although with the strength of our group, we should not be killed, but being surrounded by a large number of female demons will still be a very troublesome thing for us.

After waiting for more than eight minutes, the heart in Zhenhong's hand naturally rotted. Obviously, this female devil had bad luck and was very far away from us.

Based on this situation, we still underestimate the difficulty of mining resources like female demons even now. Previously, we were optimistic that this was a resource that was very productive and extremely easy to collect. However, it was later discovered that there were too many female demons, resulting in an aggregation effect, which greatly increased the difficulty of mining. Now it seems that not only the difficulty of collection is a problem, but the yield is also a major issue. In the past, a large part of those iron and stone hearts became useless because they had no masters. Now it is discovered that these female demons will not stay peacefully in the caves, but run everywhere. In this way, let alone less than one-eighth of those iron and stone minds and bodies can be unsealed. Even if it is the part that can be unsealed, there is no guarantee that the female devil will be summoned. Because we don't even know which heart corresponds to which demon. Therefore, there is no way to predict the location of the demon at that time. Once the distance is too far and they cannot meet within ten minutes, the female demon will rot with her heart. so. In fact, these hearts of stone are in our hands. The number of female demons that can actually be transformed is never more than one-tenth, and may even be between one-fifteenth and one-eighteenth.

Such a low production rate, coupled with the difficulty of summoning due to the swarming effect. Not to mention high-quality resources, these female demons are not even considered inferior resources. Although it seems that it is very easy for us to arrest them now, it is just a matter of bleeding some people and trying them one by one. But think about who we are? The fact that we can easily complete the task here does not mean that other players can also easily complete the task here. If only we can complete the task, then the investment will be too high. Just like actors of different levels have different appearance fees, the equipment and various attribute configurations of us advanced players are themselves a kind of resource. If our human resources are consumed here due to the exploitation of certain resources, Then you need to calculate the additional mining costs. These female demons have already become more difficult to mine and their application value has declined due to many reasons. Now that they are added to this list, I instantly feel a twinge of pain.

"It won't be a problem if this continues!" Zhenhong said, looking at the heart that she had just thrown to the ground and now turned into a pile of ashes. Although she didn't feel sorry for that heart, it was unsealed with her blood. Even if she didn't care about those hearts, she still had to care about her own blood!

"If it doesn't work, boss, why don't you call out all your magic pets and start together?" Jin Coin suggested from the side.

"Otherwise, you can use my blood." Hong Yan also took the initiative and wanted to take on the task within his power.

I thought for a while and said: "The main problem now is not the problem of blood, but the problem of time and yield. Have you ever thought about it? If we catch them one by one at this speed, how long will we need to stay here? ? It would be fine if I could succeed every time. Even if it takes a little longer, I could at least bring back a large group of female demons and at least recover the profits. But you have also seen it. Most of these hearts do not have corresponding female demons. Even if we encounter one or two and we are not sure that they are within the contact range, even if we want to take the initiative to run towards each other, we don’t know which direction to go. This is not the way to go!"

As soon as I finished speaking, I didn't expect that the gold coin suddenly said: "By the way, we can take the initiative to face those female demons? They won't have time to get close to us. As long as we take the initiative to run towards each other like just now, both sides will move together to speed up. Wouldn’t it be much faster?”

"But the problem is that we don't know the location of the other party!" Christina said: "After the hearts of those demons are unsealed, they can follow the induction of the hearts to find them. But we are not in the location of the demons. Why? Take the initiative to find me?"

"Isn't this simple?" Jin Coin said directly: "Chief Guardian, don't you have a lot of ghost bugs? Spread them all out to form surveillance in this cave, and then as long as you find the female demon appearing in any surveillance, you will We can know the specific location of the other party. Anyway, the unblocked female demon behaves quite strangely, so it should be distinguishable from other individuals."

"But this cave is so big, it would take me several hours to fill it with ghost bugs!"

"Then I have no choice. Apart from this method, I really can't think of any other way!" Jin Coin said.

Zhenhong said from the side: "Actually, it's not impossible to be faster. President, don't you have a magic pet that can move at the speed of light? You don't have to arrange those ghost bugs, as long as your magic pet is here Wouldn't it be enough to search for the unsealed female demon in the cave? With your demon pet's ability to move at the speed of light, it would take less than a few seconds to run through the entire cave, right? Although this will be very tiring, it will be exhausted once or twice. His endurance is at the bottom, but we can use restorative spells to assist recovery. Moreover, he does not necessarily need to find every one. Although there are many female demons who are not in the cave, in fact, most of them are They still gather near the cave, so President, you can arrange some ghost bugs near the cave to monitor that area together with the cave entrance, and then once you find that the unsealed female demon is not within this range, your magic pet can go out and start We’re looking for a target. And if the female devil is within this range, it’s easy, just wait for her to come over.”

I have to say that True Red’s method is indeed quite good. Of course, it’s good for us, but it’s not a good thing for darts. Although the dart can move at the speed of light, this consumes a lot of physical energy. He will almost collapse after running through the entire cave. Even if we use recovery spells to assist, the feeling of fatigue will not be reduced. Therefore, although this method is very feasible, it is definitely a chore for darts.

Fortunately, Dart is a kind of relatively well-behaved demon pet. I simply said it and he agreed directly, and then Zhenhong had to continue her bloodletting work.

I don’t know if the bad luck from before has returned. This time, Zhenhong opened ten waste products in a row, which made Zhenhong almost collapse. Fortunately, the eleventh one finally turned out normally, and this time he was very lucky. The female demon happened to be within the surveillance range of the ghost bug, that is, near the cave entrance, which was a safe distance. Within this range, there is no need to take the initiative to send it there, just wait for her to run over by herself.

This time, the female devil finally ran to us safely and swallowed the heart to complete the process of lifting the curse. Finally, she and the previous female devil stuck to Zhenhong's side. Just like what Shan Wuwu said, these female demons have a 100% affinity for people whose hearts are unsealed with blood. Since the two hearts so far have been unsealed by true red, the two female demons are all related to She was particularly affectionate, but she was very wary of us. If it weren't for the fact that Zhen Hong was in the same group as us, they would have pounced on us and started attacking us as soon as they saw us.

After successfully acquiring the second demon, Zhenhong opened eight more scraps in a row, but this time Zhenhong showed no signs of it at all, and he didn't know if he was used to this ultra-low hit rate.

The location where the female demon appeared this time was obviously not within our surveillance range. In desperation, I had no choice but to let the dart run around. It took about two seconds for the dart to successfully find the target female demon. It turned out that the opponent was indeed the target female demon. It is outside the safe range, which means that if we leave her alone, there is no way she can get the heart before the time is up.

Now that the target is discovered, it's much easier to handle. Just let Zhenhong ride my flying bird, and then rush towards the location of the female devil. Both the flying bird and the dart are my magic pets, and they can sense each other, so there is no need for True Red to direct the direction, while True Red only needs to hold the heart and wait to be taken to the target area. However, riding a flying bird in this kind of underground space full of stone pillars is not a pleasant thing. In fact, it feels very scary, because the gaps between the stone forests are often very narrow, and the flying bird spends almost half of its time. Flying sideways, and at this speed, you will feel as if the stone pillar in front of you is coming to life and actively rushing towards you. It feels as if you will hit the next stone pillar at any time. But in fact, the flying skills of birds are very good. In this environment, they can still shuttle at subsonic speed without hitting anything.

Relying on this method, Zhenhong successfully obtained more than 20 female demons before his blood volume reached the warning line. The receipt was pretty good, and the next task of bloodletting will be left to me. Who are the players here? Except for True Red, I have the most health among them! (To be continued...)
