Chapter 16: Digging through the Trees
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhou Nan quickly ran to the front of the three logging Heroic Village Guards. He looked down on the ground. The big tree had been cut down, so the ground had changed and became flat. There was no stump left.
After the trees were cut down, they would not respawn!
Let me think… If the big tree was cut down and the ground was now empty, would it be possible to build the Heroic Bear sentry tower?
An idea popped up in Zhou Nan’s mind. He quickly ran back to the town hall and found NPC Krulu to activate the logging mission. He then took a logging axe.
At this moment, the battle in front of the town hall was very intense. The Murloc cannons rumbled, and the Little Murlocs were like dumplings falling from the sky. Thunder God was moving bricks, Hero was killing the Little Murlocs in the town square, and Thunder Strike was killing the enemies outside the town. They were all pulling their weight.
Zhou Nan did not join in the defense battle. He carried the logging axe and quickly ran back to the forest in the wilderness, running all the way to the Granite Puppet’s spawn point.
Looking at the nine-meter-tall, 120,000 hp, dark brown Granite Puppet, Zhou Nan calmed his mind. He quickly walked around the forest, seriously sizing up the surrounding trees.
The trees were dense. Although there was a gap between these large trees, players could not walk through it. It was as if there was a wall of air.
In fact, every tree stood on a cube model. There were big and small trees. It was a kind of ground decoration. The trees in this wild monster forest were similar to Balsam poplar trees, and most of them were five to six meters tall.
After a while, Zhou Nan stopped in front of a tree that was as thick as an adult’s thigh. He said, “It shall be you!”
With that, he raised the logging axe and began to cut down the tree.
A big tree could be cut down with only 100 cuts. The logging axe had a fixed cutting speed, and it would cut once every three seconds. Therefore, five minutes later, with a rumble, the big tree was cut down.
[Ding! You have cut down one tree. You have obtained 50 pieces of wood!]
Zhou Nan was delighted. The fallen tree in front of him turned into a light and disappeared. The surrounding trees were dense, causing a dent to be formed.
He walked into the dent and continued to cut down the trees.
The reason why Zhou Nan did this was naturally not to complete a logging quest, but to cut a path. With every axe swing, it was as if he was digging through the trees. He had really dug out a path.
This path was not narrow for players. With the air wall setting, it would not be a problem for two or three people to walk side by side. However, the nine-meter tall Granite Puppet would definitely not be able to walk in.
As a wild monster, the Granite Puppet should not be able to destroy the terrain. Zhou Nan wanted to see if he could use the terrain to block it.
This required him to dig up trees and create a path to a suitable location. Then, he would ask Heroic Bears to come over and build the Heroic Bear sentry towers. Then, he would attack the Granite Puppet through the forest.
The Heroic Bear sentry tower was six meters tall and had a range of 50 meters. The Granite Puppet was nine meters tall. If the position was suitable, the trees would not be an obstacle for the Heroic Bear sentry tower.
The Granite Puppet was a melee unit. Although it had long-range skills, it was separated by the forest. It would definitely not be able to attack the sentry tower. Would it become a sitting duck?
The more Zhou Nan thought about it, the more he felt that his method was feasible. He dug at the trees even harder.
Unknowingly, he had been logging for an hour.
At this time, the dungeon was not over yet. Zhou Nan ran out from the path that he had dug out to observe. When he felt that it was about time, he went to pick up the loot from the spawn points of Mutated Murloc and Mud Slime. Then, he ordered Soro to go to the end of the path he had created.
The end of the path was wide enough to build a Heroic Bear sentry tower.
It was worth mentioning that Soro had been farming Mutated Murlocs and Mud Slimes, and the spoils he obtained were significant. Zhou Nan counted and found that he had 46 left-handed Murloc knives, 2 right-handed Murloc knives, 25 mud lumps, 1 rotten mud lump, and 1 Mud Slime card that was bound upon collection.
Among them, the rotten mud lump was actually a rare material.
While waiting for Heroic Bear Soro to build the sentry tower, Zhou Nan checked the attributes of the Mud Slime card.
[Card name: Mud Slime, Elizabeth (bound)]
[Card color: White]
[Card stars: 1-star]
[Equipment level: None]
[Mana cost: 10]
[Description 1: Summons Mid Slime, Elizabeth to fight for you. Elizabeth has 600 hp, 10 attack power, 10 attack range, 0.5 attack speed, recovers 10 hp per second, 1 magic resistance. Positioned as a meat shield]
[Description 2: Secret strengthening recipe, 1-star Mud Slime + mud lump ×50 = 2-star Mud Slime]
…
“600 hp, and you still have the nerve to call yourself a meat shield?”
Zhou Nan shook his head. The Mud Slime card was actually weaker than the wild monster Mud Slime. Its other attributes were the same. Other than recovering 10 hp per second, it was useless.
Fortunately, this card came with a strengthening recipe. Moreover, the strengthening materials were easy to find, so Zhou Nan kept it for now.
Not long after, Soro’s Heroic Bear sentry tower stood up in the forest. After Zhou Nan gave the order to attack the Granite Puppet, he quickly ran far away.
The Granite Puppet had the Dizzy Throw skill. This skill was to throw stones, which could hit the ground as well as the air. The range of the throw was 50 meters. It could only be used on flesh and blood units, and it could stun them. The damage was over 3,000 points, and the cooldown was extremely short.
Soro climbed up the Heroic Bear sentry tower, which was equivalent to a building. The sentry tower itself would bear the damage of 2,500 points of durability.
The Granite Puppet would not throw use Dizzy Throw on Soro, so Zhou Nan was afraid that this big guy would target him instead. He just hid far away and watched.
The nine-meter-tall Granite Puppet was hit in the head by Soro’s axe. A damage number appeared above its head.
-22!
It had 6 armor points, which could reduce damage by 26.5%.
The ‘King of Wild Monsters’ was enraged and roared. It saw the Heroic Bear sentry tower and wanted to attack it, but its limited intelligence made it walk around the forest. It could not attack the sentry tower at all, it could only roar helplessly as it was constantly being beaten up.
Zhou Nan was overjoyed when he saw this scene.
“The strategy is a success. Aren’t we going to take off soon?!”
He could already imagine the massive Granite Puppet falling, dropping loot all over the ground.
However, Zhou Nan could not help but sigh when he took a closer look at the damage number above the Granite Puppet’s head.
One axe would deal 22 damage… With two axe strikes per second, dealing 44 dps. The Granite Puppet had a total of 120,000 hp. If he wanted to kill it, he would have to let the Heroic Bear sentry tower attack it continuously for more than 45 minutes!
“This hidden mode seems to have been going on for a long time. I wonder how long it will take for it to end. Perhaps there is not enough time to kill this Granite Puppet. Well, it doesn’t matter. Once I know the method, I will have plenty of opportunities to farm it in the future!”
Zhou Nan was very excited. Unfortunately, after about 10 minutes, a regional announcement sounded. “Successfully resisted the attack of the Murloc artillery for 120 minutes. Successfully defended the town fortress. Dungeon cleared.”
[Ding, congratulations on clearing Protect Casanar hidden mode, ‘City Fortress’.]
[Ding, all rewards for clearing the dungeon have been automatically distributed to your secret camp.]
[Ding, the current dungeon has been locked, please exit the game within three minutes….]
