Chapter 113 Route Selection

No wonder Han said that the second-level island might cause them damage. The first-level gray smoke skulls have all the skills to cast spells. I wonder what the second-level ones will be like.

There are about a hundred gray smoke skulls in this batch, and there should be more than this batch on the entire island.

The four people divided the clan equally and swept in four directions, and successfully cleared the remaining batches of gray smoke skulls on the island.

Then they reunited and came to the coast marked on the route map to the next second-level island.

The four did not take the risk of changing the route to land on the surrounding second-level volcanic island, but chose to land on this second-level island on the recommended route first, and then make a decision after finding out more biological information.

Standing on the edge of the island, Xu Yi found that the ground near the sea was a little uneven, presenting a concave arc, and the edge of the rocky coast was a regular rounded corner.

He had originally thought whether this neatly arranged, regular hexagonal island was deliberately built by a certain intelligent creature, rather than formed naturally.

However, this natural curvature and the wear and tear caused by the waves did not seem to have artificial traces.

If it was built artificially, Xu Yi believed that the shape of the island would be more regular, and the black rock used to build the island was a bit too corrosion-resistant, right?

Xu Yi believed that these islands did not exist overnight. After countless waves, there were only these slight wear and tear. If such hexagonal islands were really built on a large scale, how much would this strong, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant material consume?

Could it be that this time they were facing a highly technologically advanced industrial world?

…

Without touching the few crooked and pitiful old trees on the island, Du Yuanfei took out a dozen tree species, activated the nourishing divinity, and grew the species into sturdy oak trees more than ten meters high.

The best logs were quickly turned into four composite powered sampans with paddles and tread wheels under the lv5 process of the flesh and blood butcher, for 400 people to cross the sea.

They successfully reached the second island on the route map. The intelligence of the smoke skulls on the island did not seem high, and there was no sign of a similar consciousness collective commanding the action behind them, so Xu Yi and his four companions were not blocked during the landing.

There was no danger for the time being, so Xu Yi summoned more than 20 flesh and blood butchers, and every five or six butchers worked together to drag an oak boat ashore. The arc of the island was a smooth rounded corner, so it would not scratch the bottom of the boat.

After settling the boat, the 400-man army began to move forward. Passing through several crooked old trees, they saw a group of 150 or 60 blue-gray two-color smoke skulls.

Without saying anything, Xu Yi activated the detection spell:

[Gray-blue Smoke Skull]

[Attributes] Strength 0.9, Agility 1.7, Constitution 2.1, Intelligence 1.5, Perception 1.8, Charm 0.9

[Feats] Fast Casting lv4, Flame Resistance lv4, Flame Control lv4, Wind Resistance lv4, Wind Control lv4, Natural Armor lv4, Passive Perception lv4, Elemental Mixing

His pupils shrank slightly. The second stage has two attributes. No wonder Coach Han said that the Elemental Academy does not have much advantage here, because the third stage has three attributes, and the fourth stage has four attributes?

The enhancement brought by the mixing of two attributes is a qualitative change. Not only does the second stage of the Gray-blue Smoke Skull have all the spellcasting expertise maxed out, but its attribute resistance has become two, and there is an additional elemental mixing whose effect is unclear.

Among those present, Zheng Guihao and Ren Yayi have wind attributes, and some of their methods are restrained. If the first-order gray smoke skulls are strong among creatures of the same order, then the second-order gray-blue smoke skulls they encountered are the top of the same order.

This time, they dare not be arrogant anymore. Bullets poured out, followed by poison balls, elf arrows, and wooden spears.

After a wave of shooting, there were nearly a hundred gray-blue smoke skulls. At present, it seems that defense and physique are their only weaknesses.

However, as the order rises, the strength and number of resistance will continue to increase. At a high order, this last weakness will also be eliminated. Is it possible that they can only fight hard?

Xu Yi was a little worried.

The attack of the gray-blue smoke skull is still a small fire bomb, but the shape of the fire bomb has changed to a triangular cone, and its firing speed is also different from the first order. With the addition of wind attributes, the flame cone seems to be extremely penetrating.

Thanks to the fast casting, the density of the flame cone is even greater.

Divine art, tree barrier!

Divine art, wind barrier!

Two divine arts blocked the attacks of the remaining dozens of gray-blue smoke skulls, and then the battle was ended with two waves of venom balls thrown by the Toadman Archer.

The process was relatively easy, but now they were outnumbered and had the advantage of taking the initiative. If they had a head-on firefight, it would not be so easy.

Coach Han's words were very pertinent, but I don't know what other attribute combinations there are besides wind and fire.

If we encounter some tricky attribute combinations and are attacked by the smoke skull first, our side may indeed suffer considerable damage.

Concentrating their efforts to clear the remaining six gray-blue smoke skulls gathered on the island, the four hundred people returned to the shore, launched the boat, sailed half a circle around the island and arrived at the other side of a volcanic island.

The next island on the route map is still a second-level island, but they are determined to move towards this volcanic island surrounded by five second-level islands and one first-level island.

There is no big deviation in the route, it is just the difference between going up first and then left and going left first and then up.

Just as Xu Yi and his four companions were heading towards the volcanic island, wanting to test the quality of the second-level volcanic island, most of the other thirty or so teams also began their second round of journeys.

The college students of the First Army, who originally intended not to follow the route map, gave up after encountering the second-order mixed-attribute smoke skull on the second-order island. Forget it, following the most labor-saving route may not necessarily make it to the end, so don't think too much.

Except for Xu Yi's team, the strongest Zhang Fenghuo and Tuo Luhong's team did not have more route options. If they did not follow the route map, they would simply land on two more islands, wasting their energy.

Although credits are counted for each island cleared, there is also an upper limit. The number of islands on the route map will only count the number of islands with the most credits cleared on the route taken by the students, and the remaining extra islands will no longer be counted.

Therefore, Zhang Fenghuo and Tuo Luhong and the other five did not have more choices. Besides, there was a third-order volcanic island on their original route, and it was not easy to get a lot of credits.

The Element Academy was a little different. The counselor also did not tell them the rules for judging the strength of the islands.

But after experiencing the elemental restraint of the initial island on the first-level single-attribute smoke skull, most of them no longer cared about the so-called route. Some people went directly to the volcanic island between the first and second-level islands, and some of the strong ones even went directly to the third-level island.

What awaited them was the third-level smoke skull wrapped in three colors in the gray smoke, which made their restraint advantage no longer exist.

If they had been to the second-level island first, they might have been able to take some precautions, but the reference value was not high.

Because the rules have changed again!
