Chapter 4 (Volume 22) Living Corpses and Corpse Generals?

In fact, even if the gold coin is not awake, we know that our attributes are declining, because the obvious sense of strength in our bodies is disappearing. It feels like being sick. We obviously feel that our strength is not enough, and it seems that we feel a little tired even standing up.

This process of property decline is so rapid that the property has basically stopped declining before we can fully react. Although we haven't seen the property decline yet, we can probably guess that it must be It has become the state we calculated before.

Our attributes quickly dropped to a level of only dozens of levels. As the strongest being here, I only have the attributes of my 108th level. Compared to my 108th level back then, If there are any advantages when leveling up, it may be that the equipment attributes are better and there are more optional skills. In addition, the magic pet is more complete.

Although this buff task has proportionally reduced our attributes and equipment attributes, we are not actually weakened into real novices. Because we are not novice players, we cannot really become nothing. state. Although my own attributes are indeed the same as when I was level 108, at that time, there were only a few skills I could use, but now, my range of choices is much wider, so even if the attributes are the same, The combat effectiveness is definitely different.

besides. My equipment is a growth-type equipment, which means that its attributes have been growing, although it is now weakened a lot by the buff task. But this weakening ratio is not calculated based on the equipment growth value. After all, buff tasks need to be fair, and the weakening ratio for all players must be the same. If even my Dragon Soul suit is weakened to have the same attributes as ordinary equipment, what will the ordinary equipment become? Negative attributes? Therefore, even if it has been weakened proportionally, there is still a huge attribute gap between the dragon soul suit I have now and the magic dragon suit I just got. At the very least, this dragon soul suit comes with a lot of status attributes that the magic dragon suit does not have. Even though these statuses have been weakened a lot, they have not disappeared. Just like increasing the attribute of magic resistance, even if it is weakened from the original 97% to only 7%, this 7% will still have an effect after all. So, even if it decreases in equal proportion. The attributes of my current equipment are also very good. At least if everyone is level 108. The equipment I have on me is absolutely the best of the best. Of course, this is calculated based on the average attributes of everyone's equipment at level 108.

In addition to equipment, another advantage I have is my magic pet. This buff task does not limit the summoning of familiars, but the attributes of familiars are also weakened in proportion. but. Although the properties have been weakened. But the number of my demon pets has not decreased. Even the legion-level summoned units such as Death Guards and Kirin Warriors did not have the slightest change in quantity. It is only their attributes that are weakened. Not their rank and quantity. For example, the Death Guard, after being weakened, can actually reach level 20 of an ordinary player.

Never take level 20 with a very low strength. If it were in a normal space outside, everyone would be over a thousand levels. A level 20 trumpet is naturally as fragile as an ant. A random player can kill such a powerful player with just a little effort. But now this is in the buff quest space. Here, the average players who are over a thousand levels outside are probably only at level 20**. In other words, the combat effectiveness of my Death Guards here is basically the same as that of ordinary players. The problem is that even if ordinary players enter this mission, the number will definitely not be too many, but my Death Guards can summon Nearly 50,000 people came. Can you imagine the devastation an army of this size could have in a place like this?

If the combat effectiveness of personnel in buff missions is compared to the combat effectiveness of natural people in reality, then the combat effectiveness of level 20 is equivalent to the combat effectiveness of ordinary people who do not engage in heavy physical labor and do not understand fighting skills, while the combat effectiveness of level 20** is It is roughly equivalent to the combat effectiveness of a migrant worker who often carries bricks or a person who has studied Taekwondo for a year and a half. Although whether they are migrant workers with superior physical strength or people who are only half-experienced in Taekwondo, they will definitely be able to fight better than ordinary people who work from 9 to 5 and have no time to exercise, but this kind of ability to fight to death is just a one-on-three level. . In most cases, victory may not be guaranteed even against one against two. However, my Death Guard can summon nearly 50,000 people, and even if players who are hostile to us enter the buff mission, it is unlikely that 20,000 to 30,000 people will come in at one time, right? Therefore, as long as there is enough space for me to deploy all my men, I won't have to worry about even a large-scale battle at the campaign level. It's just... I guess there may not be many opportunities for me to use all my combat power in the town. After all, an area that can fully expand tens of thousands of people is not something you can encounter casually.

Of course, even if I can't summon so many men to help at once, with a large number of Death Guards playing wheel battles or using them as cannon fodder to consume the enemy's strength, I will definitely have a greater grasp of the initiative on the battlefield than ordinary players. of. What's more, I also have more powerful magic pet units. The combat power of these magic pets can definitely be used as high-end existences, so I can say that I have neither a sea of ​​people nor a lack of high-end combat power.

However, although I am very satisfied with the strength I bring to the mission, I am not completely reassured. We are not worried that the buff mission will allow ordinary players to enter the mission and interfere with our mission execution, but we are worried about those NPCs. I still don’t know what level of existence the NPCs in the buff mission are. If their strength is the same as ours, which is only a few dozen levels of players, then of course there will be no problem. However, if the strength of the NPCs here is extremely exaggerated, then we will be in trouble. Even these npcs don't need to be too strong. They only need to be at level 150 or 60. In addition, all npcs and monsters here have at least one buff. In this case, even if I can Summon tens of thousands of troops. It is estimated that it may not be enough.

Some people may think that the mission will not be so abnormal. After all, even high-end players like me have been weakened to only level 108. Monsters and NPCs should not be that advanced. But don't forget it. The God of War told us before that according to the information they obtained, the lowest difficulty level of buff missions starts from the advanced difficulty level. What if we encounter the hell difficulty level... let alone level 150 or 60, there will be one or two I wouldn't be surprised if there were only level 200 or 300 monsters.

These gloomy-looking guys surrounding us now, if nothing else, should all be dead. Because this kind of terrifying atmosphere is not what a living person feels. It's just that we can't read the attributes of these guys at all, so we don't know whether these are zombies, ghosts, or something else. Anyway, it's certain that these are dead people.

After surrounding us, the dead people no longer hide their positions. They began to walk out of the shadows of houses and buildings in twos and threes. There are so many of them. At a glance, you can see two or three hundred. In such a small square that is not spacious, these people have almost crowded all the nearby passages, and it is not known how many are behind.

"Are these all dead people?" Christina soon discovered the fact that these things were not living people.

Zhenhong said: "I don't know whether they are alive or dead. But they are definitely not ghosts. These guys make noises when they walk."

Ghosts are all incorporeal bodies. Although high-end ghosts can condense into entities, this entity has almost no weight, so walking will not produce footsteps. However, the pace of these guys around them is unusually heavy, which is obviously not a characteristic of the incorporeal body.

Compared to the dabbler Zhen Hong and Christina, who doesn't understand Asian culture, the Taoist priest Jin Coin obviously knows a lot more.

"These should be living corpses, a type of zombie. Their defense is not as abnormal as zombies, but their agility is several levels higher than zombies, and they are even more flexible than ordinary people."

"Is there any danger?" Zhenhong asked.

"The head and heart can be discarded except for these two places, but the recovery ability of these guys is very average, so breaking their joints can make them lose part of their combat effectiveness. Oh, by the way, wake up, these Although the guy's heart and head are critical, they are not as fragile as imagined. Just poking a small hole is useless. It must cause more than 20% damage to completely stop these guys."

"Is it okay to chop off the head?" I turned around and asked.

"Yes. As long as the heart and head are not in one body, these guys can stop their activities completely. In addition, these guys still have a small amount of memories of their lives, so not only can they move flexibly, but they may also be able to use weapons."

"I think it's okay if you don't tell me." Zhenhong pointed forward, and we saw a living corpse holding a medium-sized sickle used to cut wheat.

"Do you need me to test the defense capabilities of these things first?" Christina asked.

I looked at the living corpses that were slowly approaching around me, then shook my head and said, "Don't move yet. I'll first see if these guys can still be suppressed by the conflicting attributes." As I said that, I summoned Xiaochun with a snap of my fingers. .

After Xiaochun came out, he didn't waste any time. He directly raised the staff above his head and then brought it down hard. There was no sound of the end of the staff hitting the ground. Instead, there was a muffled thunderous sound, followed by a white halo of light that suddenly spread out. The living corpses seemed to have been splashed with sulfuric acid as soon as they were swept by the halo. They started to dance and roll all over the floor, and at the same time they let out a piercing scream.

Finding that this trick worked, Xiao Chun kept holding on, and the aperture circle began to spread outwards, while the living corpses around him began to melt one after another as if they had fallen into a pool of sulfuric acid. The ones in the back are a little better, but the ones in the front row can no longer be seen as human beings. I don’t know if they are just a puddle of smelly mud on the ground.

"The effect of your move is really good at venting anger!" Christina sighed as she looked at the living corpses rolling around on the ground.

I didn't feel happy when I heard Christina's words. Instead, I smiled bitterly and said, "The effect is good, but it's a pity that it draws too much hatred!"

Following my words, Christina and the others had already discovered what I was talking about, because the thing had already reached the entrance of the village. Moreover, what worries us is that the apertures fired by Xiaochun seem to have no response to this guy at all!

In fact, the thing that appeared at the entrance of the village was not that weird. This guy was basically a Japanese samurai wearing a full set of armor. The only special thing was that this guy was slightly larger.

Everyone knows that Japanese people were very short in the past. Later, several generations of Japanese girls were used to conduct a lot of in-depth exchanges with American soldiers about human genes, and then they successfully improved the human race characteristics and made the average height of modern Japanese people reached normal levels. However, even modern Japanese people have only reached the normal height of Asians, and have not developed to the average height of 1.8 meters like Caucasians. However, the guy in red Japanese samurai armor in front of him looked like a giant, at least three meters tall, and he didn't look tall at all. Instead, he was very stocky, even a little chunky.

This guy is dressed in red samurai armor, with a ghost mask that is very popular in Japan on his face. The Japanese helmet on his head is covered with large and small sword wounds. At first glance, he gives people a kind of... A chilling feeling. The giant samurai held a heavy naginata in his hand, which was more than three and a half meters long. Even considering the height of the samurai, it was a quite huge weapon.

The naginata is a long weapon from ancient Japan. Its shape is somewhat similar to the Chinese long-handled sword, but the difference is that the Chinese long-handled swords have a very wide blade like the Qinglong Yangetsu sword, but the blade of the naginata is very narrow. It feels like the handle of an ordinary Japanese sword has been lengthened to the specifications of a long weapon. Its length is already extremely exaggerated.

The naginata blade is actually not a very good weapon. The handle of this thing is too long and the blade does not weigh much, so it has very little power when cutting. On the battlefield in ancient China, where even the small soldiers at least wore leather armor, this kind of thing was basically a decoration. But in Japan, even the so-called generals did not necessarily have a full set of armor. As for the small soldiers, they were just a group of peasants. . Therefore, this kind of thin and light blade is very useful on the Japanese battlefield. The human body's defense is very poor anyway. It doesn't matter how light the blade is, and a lightweight blade can save more power. This is also the reason why Japanese knives are generally not as thick as Chinese broadswords. Because the two are designed for different purposes, one is specialized in cutting meat, and the other is specialized in breaking armor. The structures are naturally different.

However, although the naginata is not a professional armor-piercing blade, and it can even be said that armor-piercing is its weakness, the naginata of this guy in front of us has to be treated with caution. After all, the size of this guy is there. Although the knife is also a slender structure, that is due to the proportional inspection due to its length. In fact, the actual width of the blade is not smaller than the Ghost Head Knife, and may be slightly thicker. Some. With such a huge blade, there is absolutely no problem in breaking armor, especially when the attributes of our equipment have been weakened. (To be continued...)
