"Lu Yao, Lu Yao?"
Sister Peng reminded: "Give me a copy of this month's report, and I'm urging you there."
"Ah, right now."
Lu Yao passed the report over, pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling a little tired.
"You look very tired recently." Sister Peng joked while printing the materials: "What's the matter? Do you have a side job after get off work? Or did you go out to high at night?"
Lu Yao could only vaguely say that he didn't sleep well.
...
Recently, it is a critical period for the development of Garlic Tribe, Lu Yao has been staring at the screen, not daring to relax.
He took the initiative to destroy the passage in the mountains and cut off the trade with the Yanchi tribe. The Garlic tribe needed another channel to contact the outside world.
There are three ways in theory.
Go north through the forest and into the northern world.
Cross the East River to the east and enter the East China Sea all the way.
Head south into the desert and re-open the oasis.
Among the three routes, the forest road is the most dangerous. These are the exact words of Isabelle.
"My lord, there are forest elemental creatures deep in the forest. Their number is unknown, and some of them are very aggressive. Even if a road can be opened, elemental creatures may harass at any time, and there will be hidden dangers."
To start water trade and navigation in the east, better shipbuilding techniques need to be developed. Canoes can be used for fishing and water movement, but they cannot support long-distance navigation. Building bigger and stronger ships takes time.
Relatively speaking, the desert is the best choice.
The Bedou tribe has lived in the desert for many years and knows the environment very well. The dangers in the desert are sandstorms and bad weather, besides desert monsters and bandits.
Among the many dangers, desert monsters are the biggest threat.
The so-called desert monster is a huge bug called a "sandworm".
It lives underground in the desert, and its body is as large as a giant earthworm. Its skin is rough and tough, and its skin is yellowish brown. Stones and wood can't damage it at all. Sandworms hunt camels and devour all kinds of hard stones. They are giants in the desert, and they are irresistible natural disasters for the Bedou tribe.
The most important thing is what Isabel said to Lu Yao.
"When I was looking for the Bedou tribe, I killed a bug."
Lu Yao was immediately alert.
—Can you deal with those bugs?
"Sir, do you want to kill them all?"
As soon as Lu Yao heard it, he realized that there was something going on.
——The hunting of sandworms is the second priority. The primary purpose is to regain the oasis and open up the passage from the desert to the outside world. Of course, it is best to minimize the number of sandworms.
"Yes, my lord."
— Do you need support?
"My lord, the treasures you gave me are enough. These bugs are not difficult to deal with."
—Okay, let's go now.
...
After returning home from get off work, Lu Yao hurriedly sat in front of the computer and locked his perspective on the desert area.
The desert has been expanded into a large new area, and Isabel found the occupied oasis. Surrounding her was a pile of tawny long worm carcasses, only the upper half of these worms were exposed in the desert, looking like giant fingers protruding from the ground.
[Battle] is displayed above Isabel's head.
Lu Yao clicked on the apostle continuously, and a detailed battle screen popped up immediately, and the originally relaxed electronic music also became a fast-paced and passionate style.
Isabel in black faced a group of brown bug monsters, but only two of the enemies were still alive. Both the enemy and the enemy show their respective blood bars above their heads.
[Isabel LV15] VS [Sandworm LV10] [Sandworm LV11].
Combat takes on a form of real-time auto chess.
Isabel held a green lightsaber and stabbed the two sandworms continuously. One after another, green light balls flew out of the lightsaber, tracking and bombing the sandworms.
Lu Yao thought of the description of the sword's ability in the forest.
Forest Sword Lv1: [Isabel's exclusive ability] Isabel summons the holy sword, which fully increases the combat attributes. The duration and increase depend on the ability level and mana.
This green lightsaber should be the holy sword.
This was the first time Lu Yao saw Isabel start a serious battle mode. Before dealing with barbarian heroes, Isabel can kill them with only steel pipes, and it is not time to use her abilities at all.
It can be seen that the sandworm is stronger than the barbarian heroes.
Sandworms are somewhat like gophers, able to dive into the sand and emerge from unexpected directions. Their attack method is to spit out a black venom that can be sprayed from a long distance.
It's just that Isabel's movement and attack speed are too fast. In front of her, the sandworm attack falls on her, showing a long list of Miss. And Isabel's holy sword slash and green light bombardment, Sandworm couldn't dodge at all.
The blood bar above the sandworm's head was dropping rapidly, and the blood bar of the lower-level one had been emptied, and the [death] sign was displayed above its head.
Lu Yao moved the mouse to the living sandworm.
...
[Sandworm LV11]
Health: 101/220
Mana: 16/44

Defense: 8
Speed: 5
[Evasion Lv5]
Can avoid damage from some attacks. Compared with his own weak life, this probability is higher.
[Poison LV5]

...
It turns out that there are detailed battle data.
Lu Yao then moved the mouse back to the top of Isabel's head.
...
[Apostle Lv15] Forest Sword Isabel
Health: 220/224
Mana: 271/385
Damage: 27
Defense: 25
Speed: 15
[Wisdom Lv15]
Wisdom is the key for the apostles to listen to the will of the gods. The higher the level of wisdom, the easier it is to improve and comprehend various abilities.
[Death Prayer Lv5] (15 Mana)
Pray to the dying sea, temporarily wake up the sleeping dead, and get help from the dead. The type of dead depends on ability level and mana.
[Forest Sword Lv1] (100 Mana)
[Isabel's exclusive ability] Isabel summons the holy sword, which fully increases the combat attributes. The duration and increase depend on the ability level and mana. After the battle, Isabel will create some forest elemental creatures, the number and type of which depend on the ability level and the strength of the combat object.
...
Lu Yao observed for a while, and roughly understood the combat mechanism of the simulator.
The simulator simplifies the battle and turns it into a way to visualize values and abilities.
Isabel's speed is three times that of the sandworm, which is why the sandworm's attack has been unable to hit. But under Isabel's attack, the number -19 kept popping up on Sandworm.
Lu Yao calculated, Isabel's damage was 27, and the sandworm's defense was 8, the subtraction of the two was exactly 19 points. If there is no special ability and equipment, as long as the attack can hit, the direct damage caused is the difference between the damage and the defense.
In actual combat, the gap between the basic values of the two sides is too large, and they have no restraint ability, so the battle scene is one-sided.
Like a sandworm facing Isabel.
Even if the sandworm's attack hits, it can't break through the defense, and the result is already doomed.
As the blood bar of the last sandworm was emptied, a prompt of [battle ended] appeared on the screen.
At this moment, Isabel thrust the holy sword into the ground.
Wisps of green light emerged from the corpses of many sandworms. These green lights penetrated into the holy sword and gradually twisted to form two furry reddish-brown creatures. They were exactly the same level and type.
...
[Striped Lynx LV10][Created by Isabel]
HP: 182/182
Mana: 55/55
Damage: 9
Defense: 4
Speed: 9
[Quick Strike]
can attack more frequently.
[sneak]
If you are not found while sneaking, the first attack on the creature will definitely produce the effect of [bleeding], and [bleeding] will continue to reduce the opponent's life value.
[Forest Element LV1]
Forest element creatures are beneficial to the rapid growth of the forest, and all attributes in the forest will increase. Effects depend on ability level and health.
...
Lu Yao was excited.
The Sword of the Forest has finally been activated once!
From the perspective of ability and attributes, the spotted lynx is obviously an assassin, good at ambushes and sneak attacks, and the damage is fast enough. The grades are also pretty good.
"My lord, I have a request."
Isabel said: "They are too weak to follow me, but they can protect the humans of the garlic tribe in the forest."
"Can you send all the created weak elemental creatures back to the forest first, so that they can continue to grow. Wait until the number accumulates, and they will come in handy when they grow up."
Lu Yao thinks it is feasible.
Gathering troops in waves is also a classic tactic.
