Chapter 8: Clearing the Level, Snow Wolf Saddle
Chapter 8: Clearing the Level, Snow Wolf Saddle
Lin Chuan plans to enter the town to collect items.
Before that, he first leveled up Rhea.
"Ding-dong."
"Rayar's level has been upgraded to LV5, his attributes have been improved, and he has learned the skills Rapid Fire, Power Strike, and Eagle Eye."
"Special units that reach level 5 can be promoted to hero units. One magic core is required to complete the promotion."
He took out the magic core and handed it to Rhea.
A notification sound indicating successful job change appeared.
"Ding-dong."
"Rayar has successfully changed classes, his attributes have been improved, and he has become a hero unit."
"Gain the Skill Power Aura".
"Gain the ability to train the Strongbow Guard."
[Name]: Rayark
[Level]: LV5 (0/500)
[Stamina]: 100 (50+50)
Energy: 80
[Talent]: Archery Proficiency, Strongbow Guard Training
[Skills]: Double Shot, Power Aura, Rapid Fire, Eagle Eye
[Equipment]: Iron bow, iron arrows, wolfskin trousers
[Note]: A ranged physical unit skilled in using bows and arrows, after being promoted to hero, it leans towards ranged damage and can train powerful archers with decent damage output.
【Strong Strike Aura】: Passive effect: Units within a 300 radius gain a +10 damage amplification; Active effect: The next ten attacks gain the Strong Strike effect, dealing additional piercing damage, bleeding, crippling, and other negative status effects to the target.
The core of hero units lies in their aura.
Support the legion in combat, and provide crucial support for critical moments.
If a hero unit has both of these effects, then it is not weak.
Rayark's Power Aura is an example of this.
Both increases and bursts of growth are possible.
However, in Lin Chuan's opinion, Rayark's most core skill is still Eagle Eye.
Being able to summon a scout eagle to investigate is an excellent scouting skill.
With this skill, you won't have to worry about being ambushed in the wild.
Lin Chuan then recruited ten longbowmen and converted them into the Strongbow Guard.
In addition to the aura and eagle eye, master the skills of double shot and rapid fire.
It is a good output unit.
Of course, the price is also high.
500 gold coins each.
They sold some wolf pelts to collect the gold coins.
It's noon now.
"Arthur, Rhea."
"Yes, Your Excellency."
"Take your guards and militia with you."
"Go and wipe out the spider's nest."
"Yes, my lord."
Spider nests are farther away, and also more dangerous.
However, with two heroes leading the team, the combat power is more than sufficient.
After the army left, Lin Chuan took out the Secret Realm Token.
"Half an hour."
"Let's go in and see if we can get the blueprints for upgrading our territory."
Activating the Secret Realm Token requires one Magic Core.
"Ding-dong."
"Consuming Magic Cores activates the Secret Realm Token, and the teleportation array is now open."
"For first-time users, it is recommended to bring a backpack and defensive equipment."
"All the native inhabitants within the secret realm are hostile; please be extremely careful."
The lord's personal inventory has 6 slots. Items inside will not be lost upon death within the dungeon and can be teleported out with the lord.
But these compartments are too few; a larger package is needed.
Lin Chuan opened the shop, bought a 20-slot backpack, and a few pieces of basic defensive equipment for lords. He also equipped the purple-grade Boar Charge Shield and an iron short sword.
"Set off."
The activated Secret Realm Token formed a teleportation circle.
After stepping inside, Lin Chuan disappeared from the territory.
.....
The teleportation process was completely dark.
When Lin Chuan opened his eyes, he found himself inside a building.
"Ding-dong."
"Lord of the Forbidden Land, you have entered the hostile territory of Snow Wolf Town."
" Engage, search, take control, and then withdraw."
Then a map appeared in front of me.
The above shows the main buildings of Snow Wolf Town.
"Town center".
"Snow Wolf Army Camp".
"Construction site."
"Timber processing plant".
"Blacksmith's workshop".
"Residential area"
.....
And most importantly, the evacuation teleportation point.
Lin Chuan must cross the town and reach the evacuation point within the allotted time to be considered safe to leave.
After being killed midway, everything except the items in his personal storage space was lost.
Lin Chuan arrived in a residential area.
They had to traverse a large, dangerous area to reach the evacuation point located above the town center.
"Solo, the easy difficulty level of the dungeon shouldn't be too difficult."
"Let's search the residential area first."
There are many containers here, and you can find various supplies by searching the containers.
"Open the barrel and receive 100 gold coins."
"Open the wooden box to obtain 1000 metal."
"Open the storage box and obtain 5 Magic Cores".
.....
Lin Chuan was glad he had brought his backpack with him.
There are plenty of supplies in the residential area.
In about ten minutes, I obtained 100 magic cores.
Once you get back, the Wishing Tower will be upgraded.
"No ironware technology blueprints required for the upgrade were found."
"Not in residential areas."
"Let's go check out the blacksmith's shop."
Run to the designated location.
When we were halfway there.
"Whoosh~"
An arrow flew out and struck him.
"Enemy detected."
From the bushes, a Snow Wolf Guard soldier, holding a short bow, aimed at Lin Chuan.
"Depend on."
"There are guards."
Another arrow was shot.
Pick up your shield and block it.
Simultaneously activate the skill "Pig Charge" to ram into the Snow Wolf Guard archer.
"Bang."
The impact was successful, and the guard's gunner fell to the ground.
Lin Chuan stepped forward and finished off the enemy with a final strike.
The kill target is searchable.
"Snow Wolf Shortbow"
"Blue equipment, not bad."
"Snow Wolf Archer Armor, Snow Wolf Archer Helmet".
"An 18-slot backpack and a 10-slot chest strap."
"Arrows".
Kill one, and you get the whole set of equipment.
At this point, Lin Chuan had a pretty good idea of what the secret realm was like.
Everything can be brought out of the secret realm.
Next, they encountered Snow Wolf Guard soldiers armed with knives and shields.
Lin Chuan easily killed them all.
They are not very strong.
When a shield-wielding soldier was killed.
Lin Chuan achieved even better results.
"Ding-dong."
"Acquired the item Mage Apprentice Manual (Lord)".
A lord's profession item.
After using it, the lord can work as a mage apprentice and learn mage skills.
The item is valued at 5 gold coins.
You can recycle it directly in the mall.
"That's really good."
Lin Chuan put it into his personal space.
We then went to the blacksmith's shop.
They killed the soldiers stationed there and the blacksmith.
"Ding-dong."
"Obtained Ironware Technology Blueprints".
"Obtained the blueprint for forging a fine iron sword."
"Got it!"
With the most important technology blueprints in hand, it's about time to leave.
There were only ten minutes left before the evacuation.
Lin Chuan looked towards the town center, which was the most exquisite part of the entire town.
"Let's go take a look."
As Lin Chuan approached, he was met with a dense rain of arrows as soon as he reached the outer perimeter.
Dozens of arrow towers stood, blocking the entrance.
To enter the town center, these arrow towers must first be destroyed.
"It's almost impossible for a single person."
"Bringing troops in is a possibility."
Lin Chuan tried to enter from the side, where dozens of Snow Wolf Guard soldiers were stationed. They were stronger, and he also saw some hero units.
Standing at a distance, looking out over the town center.
A snow wolf lord wielding a greatsword sat in the center.
"This kind of secret realm is impossible for a single person to conquer."
"We'll have a chance to take it down if we bring our troops in next time."
He turned and ran towards the evacuation point.
They encountered several more Snow Wolf Guard soldiers, and after killing them, they obtained some ordinary items.
My mount was accidentally dropped.
"Ding-dong."
"Obtained Snow Wolf Saddle *1".
