Chapter 643: Evil Ghost! (8000)

Chapter 643 Evil Creature - Ghost! (8000)

Element Fusion Engine!

On the surface, it is an indispensable energy source for manufacturing legendary constructs.

But Matthew has greater expectations for it.

After all, the element fusion engine contains a variety of technologies and has a very broad application prospect.

Among them, the element fusion technology that Matthew covets the most is more important to him than the Mithra Core of the Netheril Empire.

After all, the application and debugging of the Mithra Core are deeply bound to the material plane.

And its cost is too high. Even if the Gulf Territory tries its best, it can't make a Mithra Core in a year.

Therefore, Matthew naturally decided to retreat and choose the element fusion technology with stronger adaptability and more development prospects.

In addition to element fusion technology, information and technology of metal materials that can withstand the impact of this level of force are no less important than the former.

Just as Matthew knew in his original world.

The key to mastering nuclear fusion technology is the research and development of super-strong materials for nuclear fusion generators. Only after a key breakthrough was a breakthrough achieved, this powerful technology was successfully mastered.

The material problem has always troubled the Gulf Territory.

Matthew also obtained a lot of information and technology from the diamond golems he captured before.

However, a considerable part of the technology has been unable to make the Gulf Territory's golem production go further because of the high difficulty of implementation and the lack of corresponding materials.

With the help of the power of destiny and the coordination of data display, as long as the sample of the element fusion engine can be found, it means that these technologies are in hand.

With the supplement of these technologies, the Gulf Territory can try to produce and research legendary-level constructs.

At that time, the Gulf Territory city with legendary constructs as its town will be able to fight against the natural disasters and crises that will spread in the future.

March 29.

Death Desert.

Clear.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The closer to the center of the Death Desert, the stronger the roaring wind.

The wind brings up fine sand particles, which make people's cheeks hurt.

The scorching sun is even more toxic, baking the entire desert like a big furnace.

If you don't take good protection, your skin will be sunburned red as long as you stand outside for a few minutes.

When you wake up the next day, the surface skin will fall off, and the burning pain will make you grimace in pain.

Looking around, the sand dunes are connected one after another, and you can't see the end at a glance.

The dazzling burning feeling gives people a panic and heat.

Such a desolate place hides many dangerous and deadly predators.

It is precisely because this place is desolate.

In order to increase the probability of hunting, they survive and reproduce tenaciously, and have evolved various terrifying methods.

This sandworm that suddenly drilled out of the ground is like this!

"Roar...!"

From the big mouth that roared in pain, a series of dark green corrosive liquids were spewed out.

The highly acidic corrosive liquid fell on the sand and corroded one basin-sized pit after another.

The harsh "sizzling" sound and the billowing gray-black smoke gave people a very trembling sense of horror.

"No one dares to fight the sandworm head-on. These dangerous corrosive liquids alone are enough to dispel the idea of ​​any warrior."

"The reason is simple. The corrosive breath of the sandworm is extremely effective on sand and soil. It is an extremely deadly threat to the weapons and equipment worn by adventurers and their slightly small bodies."

Fortunately, thanks to the perfect intelligence of the Bay Territory, the strategy is detailed.

The adventurers who were well prepared had no intention of getting close.

Not only did they avoid the first killing move of the sandworm from the underground, but they also avoided the second round of attack by the acid breath.

When the sandworm began to attack the clay golem, dense armor-piercing crossbows quickly covered it.

Puff!

Crack!

The huge sandworm was instantly pierced into a hedgehog by the crossbow and lost its movement in the blink of an eye.

It was still roaring just now, but it did not behave like an extraordinary magical creature with tenacious vitality. It fell down before it even lasted three seconds.

Two huge clay golems walked over, activated the vibration mode, and pulled the huge sandworm out of the sand.

The huge sandworm was six or seven meters long, and its round body with a diameter of more than 1.5 meters had become limp at this time.

The light green blood was absorbed by the sand, and the fine sand blown by the wind would soon cover it, covering up all traces of the sandworm's existence.

Click! Click! Click!

The huge hook lifted the corpse of the sandworm.

The butchers who had been prepared waved their swords to cut them.

Although the sandworm is dangerous and ugly, it is a kind of extraordinary magical creature that is more popular in the Death Desert.

The seemingly soft leather has a very strong toughness, is light, comfortable, flat, and has a very good enchantment adaptability. It is a good material for making close-fitting enchanted leather armor.

Even if there are many holes in the upper body, it can be used for the manufacture of parts.

Moreover, the body of the sandworm is large enough that even if only the lower body is counted, 5 to 6 sets of full-body leather armor can be cut out.

Even if they are just raw materials, the value is as high as 8,000 to 9,000 gold coins, which is a very good income for the vanguard of Alice's adventure group.

Not to mention, this is only part of the harvest.

Laura watched the butchers quickly cut the body parts of the sandworms, and then specially preserved some strange body tissues and stored them in the unique fresh-keeping box of the Bay Territory. She asked curiously:

"Do these things have to be collected separately? What are their respective functions?"

Looking at the figure getting closer and closer on the detector, ignoring the faint stench in the air, Alice said slowly with a smile:

"The organs in the bodies of magical creatures have a lot of secrets."

"The Bay Territory has a special research institute to collect and study these organs to explore their functions and how to use them."

"I heard from Commander Ji Fan that the Bay Territory is ready to breed sandworms in the Death Desert."

"These guys have strong reproductive ability and grow fast. If it weren't for the food restrictions, I'm afraid they would have spread throughout the Death Desert long ago."

Cultivating sandworms?

Laura took a look at the ugly and hideous huge sandworm, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly involuntarily.

If she had just arrived in the Bay Territory, she would definitely not understand this behavior, and she would even doubt whether the Bay Territory was crazy.

Such dangerous supernatural creatures should be eliminated as many as possible. How could they be actively cultivated on a large scale?

However, as Laura gradually deepened her understanding of the Bay Territory and saw the situation in other adventure areas of the Bay Territory, she gradually understood the Bay Territory's plan.

There are many "benefits" to cultivating sandworms!

According to the value of the spoils Laura just saw.

The value of each sandworm can easily exceed 20,000 gold coins.

This is just the gold coins in the hands of adventurers!

These materials will be further processed and produced in the hands of the Bay Territory, and their value can be increased by at least 5 times, and maybe 10 times.

After all, Laura also visited the Bay Territory's production factory in the desert town and saw the production process and pictures that shocked her.

The use of various materials in the Bay Territory has far exceeded Laura's imagination.

It is precisely because of this that Laura, who was originally preparing to return to the Riel Elf Kingdom, chose to stay in the Bay Territory temporarily, and joined the vanguard of Alice's adventure group with the help of Ji Fan.

She wanted to see the strength of the Bay Territory and how strong the productivity of these special technologies was.

After receiving Ji Fan's instructions, Alice smiled and explained to Laura:

"The output of a resource, which can be used and processed multiple times, can provide many jobs and create more value."

"It is through this method that the Gulf Territory can make full use of resources, obtain greater benefits, and have enough resources to supply the development of the Gulf Territory's technology and army."

Alice and Laura are talking about the same concept.

A concept that even if the other party knows it, there is no way to operate or change it.

In a world without the blessing of extraordinary power.

There are still many countries and organizations that cannot implement such improvements and systems because of various vested interests.

If Laura really wants to return to her territory, or the country implements such a policy.

The Gulf Territory is eager for it!

There are only two possibilities.

One is that Laura succeeds.

But if you want to develop the territory well, you need more resources and technology to develop, and you need to order more materials and goods from the Gulf Territory.

Definitely not a loss!

The other is that Laura fails!

The Gulf Territory can gain the loyalty of an extraordinary peak professional.

It's a profit anyway!

Laura, who didn't understand the deep meaning, silently thought about what Alice said.

The pioneering team moved forward.

The wind and sand kept blowing, but it couldn't stop the team from moving forward.

"Stop moving forward, there is a medium-sized enemy 150 meters underground, prepare for battle."

Alice's voice spread quickly, and the adventurers in the white cloaks not only did not shrink back, but they all became excited.

Laura vaguely heard the discussion of several adventurers:

"Hehe, it's finally our turn to take action."

"The medium-sized enemy should be a type of sandworm or giant scorpion. We can use tactic No. 4. Group one is ready to fight, and group two is behind to provide support."

"Although the possibility is small, we still have to be careful of other types of magical creatures..."

"Put the bait first, then arrange the clay golem..."

"Brothers, work hard, and the gold coins are delivered to your door!"

"Come on, everyone, as long as you complete the task, we can get another house..."

"Hehe, renting to adventurers is the most cost-effective, especially those who are new, and the cost can be recovered in two months."

"Tsk, it's just a matter of time. The territory has long said that houses are not valuable and will not be traded. Anyway, everyone has one..."

"That's right, we do have one, but some people don't..."

"..."

The adventurers' attitude towards the battle was a little frivolous, but they were not ambiguous when they started fighting.

Under Laura's gaze, a sandworm bigger than before emerged.

The big mouth with hundreds of sharp fangs directly swallowed the lamb leg as bait.

Of course, the moment it came out, two dragon hunting crossbow arrows had already flown over.

Puff!

Its waist and abdomen were accurately hit. The dragon hunting crossbow arrows with barbs, with a wrist-thick iron chain at the tail, held the ferocious monster tightly.

The stinging sandworm struggled madly.

It subconsciously launched an attack on the clay golem that rushed over.

The clay golem with thick skin and flesh would naturally not be hurt too much.

The adventurers who had been prepared for a long time pulled the trigger with a grin.

The battle was over, and it was no different from the previous battle.

Although the combat effectiveness of the Gulf leader army was not seen, the strength of the Alice Adventure Group Vanguard had already frightened Laura enough.

There are currently 105 members of the Alice Adventure Group Vanguard.

Each of them has the strength of a high-level adventurer.

The whole body is covered with enchanted equipment shining with magical aura.

Each person has two rare space equipment.

Laura couldn't help but compare with them and found that the quality and practicality of the magic equipment she wore were not even as good as the other party.

The combat ability is also excellent. For example, the ambush of the sandworm just now was solved by only a 20-man team of the vanguard.

From making noises and setting traps.

To using clay golems as bait to attract sandworms to take the initiative to attack.

Finally, they used the extremely lethal enchanted crossbow to conduct extremely accurate and deadly concentrated fire.

The entire battle lasted less than a minute.

Not only did they not suffer any casualties, but even their expressions of victory were very calm.

Laura knew their current situation, which was the confidence and calmness of knowing the battle process.

Laura saw their detailed arrangements with her own eyes, and could also see their battle arrangements and mutual cooperation, which were very experienced and exquisite.

Laura reviewed all the adventure groups in her memory and found that only one or two could match them.

Well, those rare and powerful extraordinary and even legendary adventurer teams.

What shocked Laura even more was Alice, who was tall and exuded a strong aura.

This obviously young human ranger not only accepted the dragon warrior transformation, but also wore a set of thunder magic armor.

This revealed a lot of information, indicating the deep connection between Alice's adventure group and the Bay Territory.

At the same time, Laura could vaguely guess that this was a bait for the Bay Territory to attract adventurers to work harder to complete the task.

But even if it is a glaring bait!

There are still countless adventurers willing to bite the hook!

Even Laura herself is very interested in Alice's situation!

As she gradually deepens her understanding of the Dragon Warrior, she knows that even if the Dragon Warrior undergoes surgery, he can still continue to train and become stronger.

For this special strengthening surgery, Laura has changed from curiosity to expectation and yearning.

The former is for the country and the nation.

The latter is naturally for herself.

Laura has been at the peak of the extraordinary for more than 10 years.

Although she has worked very hard to train and has experienced many dangers and life-and-death tests.

But breaking through the shackles of the extraordinary level and stepping into the legend is like a mess, and there is still no clue.

Now, any obvious improvement can bring Laura more insights and opportunities!

So, Laura naturally wants to try whether she can get the Dragon Warrior transformation from the Bay Territory.

I believe that many high-level and even extraordinary adventurers who have come one after another have similar considerations.

Of course, if you want to get such a transformation, the Bay Territory has also given a clear method.

The first is to join the cooperation with the Gulf Territory.

In the long queue, waiting for sporadic transformation positions.

The second one is also difficult, but it is much less difficult than the first one.

That is to become an adventurer of the Gulf Territory.

The merit level is increased to 100,000, and adventure for the Gulf Territory for 3 years.

You can spend 1 million gold coins to complete the first stage of dragon warrior transformation.

The third one is the "simplest".

Join the Gulf Territory, pass the assessment, and become a soldier.

As long as you are not malicious or carry sins.

The Gulf Territory usually welcomes people of almost all races to join.

Even now, the difficulty of becoming a soldier has been raised to level 3 professionals.

Of course, joining the Gulf Territory, becoming a soldier, and accepting the dragon warrior transformation requires at least 20 years of service.

For those who are eager to accept the dragon warrior transformation.

These are just the most insignificant conditions.

Because their gains are almost unattainable by most people.

The strength will be greatly improved, at least reaching the level of high-level professionals.

The life span will be increased by at least 100 years.

According to Laura's speculation, there must be many more effects of the Dragon Warrior transformation that the Bay Territory has not announced...

Laura almost perfectly meets the second condition.

She has achievements.

And as ghost monsters are hunted in large numbers by adventurers, even if some of them are spent on purchasing extraordinary weapons and equipment, they are still becoming more and more.

She has money.

Not counting birth and savings, the adventure income over the years, as well as the subsequent task rewards given by the Bay Territory, have exceeded 1 million gold coins.

The only condition that restricts her from accepting the Dragon Warrior transformation.

On the contrary, for others, the easiest to achieve is "adventure for the Bay Territory for three years".

In fact, as long as Laura completes 12 high-level professional tasks (one level lower than herself) for the Bay Territory every year, she can get free time.

Even if she leaves the Bay Territory, the Bay Territory will still choose to recognize her.

However, Laura is not willing to waste time, and wants to better understand the Bay Territory and conduct the exploration and adventure she loves.

Just as Laura was thinking, a clear and loud roar sounded in the distance.

A bright red firework bloomed in the distance.

Alice glanced at the magic watch, and her body flashed with lightning. She shouted in a clear voice:

"A large number of ghost monsters were found ahead, everyone prepare for battle!"

"Activate the defense formation, activate the steel golem, and prepare the purification barrier!"

A large number of ghost monsters were found?

They dared to appear in the daytime? What's going on?

The adventurers of Alice's vanguard team couldn't help but flash such doubts in their minds, but they soon became excited.

"Why? I was saying two days ago that it would be great if the ghost monsters came out in broad daylight."

"Haha, isn't it a coincidence? I bumped into them today!"

"This is a good opportunity to make a fortune. Don't miss it."

"I don't believe you. I said the same thing the last time I hunted a giant scorpion."

"Puff, I can't argue with you..."

"..."

Laura carefully observed the state of these adventurers and found that they were not too nervous. Instead, they were all full of confidence.

While she was amazed, Laura was also ready for the battle.

She knew the ghost monsters very well and was indeed curious about them coming out in broad daylight.

After all, the other party was a ghost monster of the dead.

Under the sun, they would continue to suffer damage and their combat effectiveness would be reduced.

It was indeed a good time to kill them!

However, due to their instinctive aversion to the sun, ghost monsters generally do not appear in the daytime, let alone appear on a large scale like now.

What happened?

While the Bay Leading Reclamation Team was preparing to meet the enemy, the gray-black fog spread over the desolate sand dunes in the distance like a sandstorm.

In the smoke, the terrifying ghosts were baring their fangs and claws, making "sharp" roars.

The adventurers who were still smiling and laughing just now were immediately stunned.

They thought these ghosts were coming to die "barely".

Unexpectedly, they came to "take life" with their fangs and claws bared!

"This is really fatal!"

Some helpless mutterings secretly reached Laura's ears.

She thought these adventurers had lost confidence, but Alice, who was originally calm, suddenly became excited:

"Artillery ready, fire!!"

Artillery?

What kind of troops is that?

Before Laura could react, the roars came from behind.

Several arcs of fire flew over and landed accurately in the gray-black smoke that spread over.

Then, a "boom" explosion spread, and the rolling flames spread everywhere.

The terrifying impact force instantly blew away a large area of ​​gray smoke.

The ghost monsters hiding in it were not physically impacted by the shells.

But the spreading flames were deeply attached to their bodies, burning bursts of "sizzling" sparks!

Another scorching sun fell, like a deadly sword, piercing one gap after another in their bodies.

The severely injured ghost monsters screamed silently, and strange and invisible sound waves spread around.

Some ghosts ran forward frantically.

Under the baptism of the sun, they melted and burst like bubbles!

Some of them had the remaining survival instinct and fled to the surrounding gray fog in a panic.

The gray fog that was torn into a huge gap healed quickly like a living thing, covering these severely injured ghosts again.

Interestingly, the ghost monsters that were severely injured just now recovered quickly under the wrapping of the gray fog.

However, their ghost-like eyes became brighter, but their remaining consciousness and emotions became more and more empty.

Seeing this scene, Alice subconsciously raised her eyebrows and shouted to Morak beside her without hesitation:

"Drive, dig a trench."

Morak, with a shiny gold chain hanging on his chest, cheered impatiently, and stepped on the accelerator to the bottom with the equally excited cheers from Bigo beside him.

The plow truck with a conical ram in front roared out.

The shiny conical ram, under Bigo's operation, tilted slightly upward and plunged into the gravel.

Wow! Wow! Wow!

When the plow truck rushed past everyone's eyes.

A deep trench was "rammed" out alive.

Morak and Bigo, who were shouting and screaming, had no intention of stopping, but continued to gallop in front of the defensive formation.

Ashes, with a calm face, waved to the goblin engineers behind him.

These little guys decisively manipulated the exoskeleton armor to open the already laid pipelines.

The gray-brown fire oil rolled out and filled the newly dug trench at an astonishing speed.

Fire oil is much more viscous than water. After being absorbed by the gravel, it will become a more tenacious whole, which invisibly locks the loss of the fire oil spreading around.

Watching the defense arrangement gradually take shape, Alice breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She noticed that Laura was looking at the fire oil, her eyes swept across her pointed ears, and she whispered in a calm tone:

"This is a special desert type of fire oil, which can be stored longer in the sand and burn more fully, ensuring that it can form sufficient deterrence and killing."

"The Fuel Research Institute is developing them further to increase their lethality."

"In several valleys in the dark forest, adventurers have discovered rich fire oil deposits."

"The Gulf Territory is preparing to develop there, but the trolls there are more troublesome."

"If you are interested in seeing it, you can set off with us after the mission in the Death Desert is completed."

"..."

No matter how slow Laura was, she realized that there was something in Alice's words, but before she could think about it carefully, the gray mist moving in the distance had already surged over.

Laura, who had excellent eyesight, saw the ghostly monster with its teeth and claws in the gray fog at a glance, and was horrified in her heart.

"Why are they so fast!"

Generally speaking, because there is no entity, the movement of ghost monsters is slower than that of normal people.

It's just that when many ordinary people see ghost monsters, they are usually scared to the point of weakness, so they are chased by them.

The best way to encounter these ghost monsters is to turn around and run immediately. As long as you are not particularly unlucky and surrounded, you can basically escape the opponent's pursuit.

However, these ghost monsters enveloped in gray mist are completely different.

Their moving speed is no different from ordinary people, but seems to be faster.

Laura subconsciously held the longbow. Alice shook her head slightly at her and said in a calm and confident tone:

"Now, it's not time for combatants to take action!"

Before Laura could react, Morak, who kept shouting, leaned half of his body out of the plow truck.

He threw away the cigarette in his hand, looked at the rising fire, hugged him, and screamed strangely:

“Better than Gao!!!”

I saw the flames chasing Bi Gao from the rearview mirror and felt my heart beating so fast. I reached out and slapped the red button directly, shouting in a sharp and excited voice:

"Come on!"

"Yo ho!!"

Whoops!

A large cloud of thick water vapor spurted out from the rear of the plow truck, and two balls of scorching flame came out with an impact like an explosion.

The huge thrust caused the slightly bloated plow truck to fly out.

Seeing that they had managed to escape the "pursuit" of the wall of flames, the big guys in the adventure group laughed out loud and praised the two of them for their desperate behavior.

The roiling flames, 7-8 meters high, stood before everyone's eyes like several real walls of fire.

Sizzle!

The surging gray mist, after hitting the rushing flames, seemed to be ignited as well, exuding green flames.

The ghostly monster hiding within, the Howler, rushes into the flames.

Their immunity to physical damage is quite high, but they are not that comfortable when faced with the burning of fierce fire oil.

When they passed through the obstruction of three or four walls of fire and rushed towards the position under the scorching sun, their bodies were already mutilated and riddled with holes.

Facing such a weak ghost monster, the adventurers showed no mercy at all. They fired their triggers one after another, shot crossbows wildly, and beat up the drowned dogs.

Laura glanced at the pipeline that continuously transported the fierce oil, felt the scorching heat waves hitting her cheeks, and couldn't help but asked curiously:

"Why is there a section of sand covering the front?"

Alice glanced at her and did not answer directly. She just replied with a solemn expression:

"You will understand why when you actually go to the Gulf Territory and receive training and education from adventurers."

"Now, we have to be careful, something is targeting us."

After hearing this, Laura looked at the wall of fire not far away with vigilance, noticed the activation light of Alice's thunder magic armor, and frowned subconsciously.

Is there any danger?

No feeling at all?

Just as Laura was carefully observing her surroundings, the gray mist pouring in from the distance suddenly set off a huge wave.

Suddenly, they rushed out of the gray mist more than 10 meters high, directly "over" the surging wall of fire, and rushed past a large number of people.

Although the gray mist hit the second wall of fire, they repeated their old tricks and "crossed" the obstacle quite easily.

Seeing the gray fog getting closer and closer, Laura couldn't help but draw the arrow.

Facing this scene, Alice did not panic. Instead, he continued to issue attack orders step by step:

"The artillery fire is extended backwards and fires freely without interruption."

"The purification barrier is activated, melee personnel guard the entrance and exit, and long-range personnel focus fire."

"As long as you hold on for 15 minutes, the support from the territory's flying dragon cavalry will arrive!"

The big guy who heard this immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the gray mist in front of them is strange, it is definitely no match for the flying dragon knights.

The reason is very simple, Lord Lord and Lord Yaya will definitely take action!

More than a dozen goblin engineers assisted five or six dwarf artillerymen to maintain the operation of the artillery on the carriage.

The gray fog had already rushed over, and the firelight from the cannonballs was quickly lost in the smoke.

Although they could not see the effect of the shell bombardment at all, they were still faithfully executing the orders.

As the dazzling golden light filled the air, a layer of golden enchantment enveloped the entire vanguard.

The gray mist, which was like a living thing, suddenly rushed up and completely engulfed the purification barrier with a radius of twenty to thirty meters.

The twisted ghost monster appeared, waving its claws wildly or opening its mouth, constantly attacking the golden purification barrier.

The surface of the barrier constantly outlines ripples, and the dazzling light emitted is steadily causing damage to the ghost monsters that come over to attack.

The more fiercely the ghost monsters attack, the more damage they suffer.

Until their entire bodies are burned by the golden purification light, shattered inch by inch, and can no longer be repaired by the gray fog, and they disappear without a trace.

Confirming that the purification barrier is quite stable, only a very small number of three or four ghost monsters can get in through the entrance.

The adventurers of the vanguard team started fighting very straightforwardly.

Several ogres and gray dwarf thunder warriors with thick skin and strong strength blocked the front of the cave entrance, and a large number of archers took turns shooting arrows behind them.

Even if the ghost monsters are more immune to physical damage, they are not immune to the destructive effects of fighting spirit, and they are facing such a concentrated and powerful attack.

The ghosts that rush into the entrance can only last for two or three seconds at most, and they will directly turn into ashes, or leave one or two soul crystals for the adventurers.

The damage caused by the ghost monsters to these guys was actually very general.

It was difficult for the heavily armored warriors wearing purification enchanted armor to break through with these ghost monsters alone.

Although the battle was fierce, the situation was relatively stable.

Although the adventurers could not kill their way out, the ghost monsters could not rush in.

Until a huge gray-black figure, with an unspeakable terrifying shadow, emerged from the confused gray fog.

It raised its claws high and slammed hard on the top of the purification barrier.

Bang!

The purification barrier, which was very solid just now, suddenly aroused violent ripples, and the light flickered.

Feeling the fatal threat surging from the bottom of her heart, Laura forced herself to calm down, opened her bow and aimed at the terrible monster, but heard Alice's calm voice in her ears:

"The ghost has appeared, and the capture operation begins!"
