The Era of Gods

   Chapter 493

This method of using the lives of NPCs of various races to go back and forth lasted for a month and a half, until the various heroes and leaders who came later personally killed the demons near the gate of foreign land, and they took a firm foothold nearby and continued to continue. The army passed through the gates of foreign land to establish bases.

The establishment of the    base opened up the expeditionary army's reputation. The first group of thousands of players with a level of more than 50 entered one after another. They unanimously chose to stay in the expeditionary army base liver prestige, even Lin Xiao is no exception.

The reason is simple. After opening the Outland, the fortress system was opened. Any player who has earned Gaia's reputation to Respect, and Expeditionary Army's reputation to Respect, is eligible to build his own fortress, and recruit NPC soldiers from the Expeditionary Army by consuming reputation and demon mark. bring up.

  The so-called fortress is to divide the base, exchange the prestige for the core cornerstone of the fortress to go to the depths of the outer domain, and put down the cornerstone to build a fortress belonging to the player, recruit various functional NPCs and combat NPC soldiers.

Functional NPC refers to various merchants, such as leather armor merchants forge, hotels bound to hearthstone, flight points connecting other fortresses with the general base of the expeditionary force, grocers selling potions, merchants of various spelling materials, learning professions Trainers, and even professional instructors who learn spells, and so on.

  The newly recruited functional NPCs have only basic functions, but they can occupy some special resource areas or collected resources, or upgrade the core of the fortress, upgrade the NPC, so that it has higher abilities, or sell some special products only available in the fortress.

  Fortress is similar to some small towns or outposts in the game, which can be used for players to supply, transfer, and even stay for a long time.

  Players need to pay taxes for transactions here. This is also one of the sources of income for the fortress. Generally, one-tenth of the total amount of materials purchased and sold by the player in the NPC is the income of the fortress owner.

  In the outer domain, it is a safe area for players to rest. It also provides housing for players to rent or buy. Players can store things that cannot fit in the package in the room.

However, this depends on whether the fortress is strong or not, because the fortress must be built in a dangerous area. It will not only face the attacks of the outland demons, but also face the destruction of the children of the nightmare. Once the fortress is broken, the player will have the things in the fortress. Gone.

  So whether a fortress can attract a large number of players to stay here for supplies depends on whether your fortress is strong enough.

  So the fortress is not something that ordinary players can play. At least a team must build a fortress together, such as a guild. Very few people build a fortress alone.

  As for combat NPC, it naturally refers to various NPC soldiers, including elite NPC soldiers, including any race. Generally, players who choose NPCs of the same race have advantages in recruiting prices and conditions.

  These NPC fighters can also be upgraded through battle, and they can also collect resources to forge NPC-specific equipment enhancements, and even upgrade their ranks, such as upgrading ordinary soldiers to elite templates, and even strengthening elite or boss templates.

  Theoretically, a small soldier can become a super powerful hero NPC under harsh conditions.

  But theories are generally just theories, and basically they cannot become reality.

  Lin Xiao was quite interested in this, and after discussing it with his girlfriend, he decided to go it alone.

The reason for not being with the guild is that there are quite a lot of players in the guild who want to redeem the core of the fortress. Everyone can see the future of the fortress system. Those who can enter Huiyao are the elites. It is difficult for them to serve anyone, even Lin Xiao They have shown their strength before, and they also recognized that he is strong now, but recognition is one thing, and wanting them to be younger is another.

  I serve you, but it doesn’t mean I want to be your little brother.

  In addition, the hearts of the people are changeable. He may not be relieved if he really wants a bunch of people to be his own little brothers, so he discussed with his girlfriend and simply quit the guild and do it by himself. Anyway, the cohesion in this guild is just like that, and I don’t expect them to help.

  The next step is to brush reputation, and continue to receive repeatable missions to kill demons in the expeditionary army. Every time you kill a certain number of demons, you will get a certain reputation.

He and his girlfriend are both mages. She chose her core family, Skywrath Wing, a sub-legendary race derived from her original core family, Thunder Wing. It is estimated that the template refers to angels, so she looks very inclined. Angels are very beautiful and have super talents for casting spells.

There are two types of Skywrath Wingers, which are divided into Silver Wings and Gold Wings. Silver-winged Skywrath Wings have a stronger talent for thunder than Thunder Wings, and Gold Wrath Wings have inherited the sacred power of angels.

Shen Yuexin chose the Golden Wing Skywrath Wing, so her specialization is Divine, which is equivalent to a combination of a mage and a priest. The original talent tends to be a combat type. After combining with Lin Xiao, the original talent was washed out and replaced with Auxiliary type, which means that she is now equivalent to a priest with not low combat effectiveness.

Over time, the demons near the expeditionary base were killed by them. The strong from the main plane used magic to transform the nearby barren terrain and built a super large fortress. Teams of NPC soldiers were in an NPC officer. Leaving the expeditionary force fortress under the leadership of, set up outposts nearby.

   is not only to serve the players, but also to open up the territory, and as a buffer against the devil counterattack.

  But if the corresponding player wants to build a fortress, he must stay away from the expeditionary force fortress and go to the depths of this foreign world.

  According to regulations, the farther the fortress is from the expeditionary force and the more important the position, the more support the expeditionary force will be. At the same time, there will be huge bonuses when calculating the score in the future, which will force players to enter the depths of the outer realm.

This is very beneficial to Lin Xiao, who has a level advantage. After spending several months accumulating enough prestige and merits, and the demon mark, they exchanged a fortress core and a squadron of 100 people with a level of fifty. Five level NPCs, of which five were elite NPCs, prepared enough supplies, then mounted their mounts and led this troop to leave the expeditionary army headquarters, which had developed into a super stronghold, and entered the vast outland.

  Recruiting elite combat NPCs requires green demon marks to exchange them. The explosion rate of this gadget is extremely low, and it has only accumulated less than ten in such a long time.

  Normal level fifty-five NPC fighters have only three thousand and five health, and the elite is about ten thousand, and the average combat power is slightly lower than that of ordinary demons.

This outer world is ravaged by the power of demons and chaos, and the energy in the void becomes extremely violent. Players will get a negative BUFF in the wild in this world. Any spell cast has a certain probability of failure, and the mana consumption and casting time will increase by 50 %.

  Only in the area controlled by the expeditionary force, the void energy is calmed by the mage tower built in the expeditionary force fortress, and this negative buff will disappear.

  So the early wasteland reclamation really relied on NPCs to pile up with human lives, and the players didn't play a role in it, even Lin Xiao did the same.

  Although the level is quite high with sixty-eight, but there are a lot of powerhouses among the demons in Outland, and any enhanced elite above seventieth level with a group of younger brothers can drive them to run everywhere.

  The seventy-level enhanced elites can have a hundred thousand blood. A powerful race such as the devil can have two or three hundred thousand blood. The attack power is strong and the spells are powerful. With a group of younger brothers, they can't fight at all.

It has been almost half a year since he opened the door to leave now. He has died at least 20 times, which is still a small number. Those in his early 50s ran to Outland and died hundreds or even hundreds of times, and the powerful demons were blown away. They doubt life.

  Leaving the expeditionary force fortress, many players who had been fighting against sporadic demons in the Outer Qing saw them and knew that they were going out to build a fortress, and they all paid attention.

  At this stage, there are not many players who dare to go out and build fortresses, and most of them are in the accumulation period.

  This squadron has a hundred NPC soldiers, of which 50 of the 95 ordinary soldiers are warriors, 5 stalker scouts, 10 archers, 10 mages, 10 knights, and 10 priests.

  Three of the five elites are melee fighters and two mages.

  The team configuration is reasonable, even if it encounters the enhanced elite demon, it will have the power to fight. Although it will suffer heavy losses.

  All five stalker scouts were sent out to look around, so as not to bump into a large group of demons unknowingly.

  Three days later, Lin Xiao and Shen Yuexin ran back to the expeditionary force fortress with less than one-third of the casualties.

Less than 50 kilometers away from the fortress of the expeditionary force, he was discovered by a flying demonized monster. After killing a few small groups of demons in succession, he attracted the attention of a 76-level leader Demon Warlord, who personally led the demon army to fight They launched an encirclement and suppression, and he had to leave only half of the troops and ran back griefly.

   "Not at all."

   just left the expeditionary range and was forced to come back. Even if he ran out by chance next time, he would still be besieged and killed by the devil soon.

On the side of   , his girlfriend flapped her golden wings and said:

   "We need to train an elite team. At least a group of elites with a level of 65 or above can make a way out."

"I understand."

  Return to the expeditionary force fortress and re-recruit a batch of new recruits with the remaining demon mark, a total of one and a half squadrons, with the same configuration as before, and leave the expeditionary force fortress again.

But this time, instead of running outside, we will go to an outpost called Eagle Point located west of the fortress. There are a large number of NPCs and other players in the outpost. If you encounter a large number of demons, you can escape to the outpost for refuge. , Will not be pushed around like before.

  The Eagle's post is on a high ground more than 40 kilometers away from the expeditionary force fortress. It is surrounded by cliffs. There is only one road around the high ground. As long as you guard the only intersection and add air defense, you will be able to hold it firmly.

When Lin Xiao arrived, he happened to see a large group of about two or three thousand demons attacking the Eagle Post under the command of a demon warlord. Many elite NPC soldiers guarded the gate, and a large number of players squatted on the wall to control the crossbow direction on the wall. Launch an offense below.

   Inside the guard post, there are two teams of players leading two teams of NPC soldiers on standby.

   Like Lin Xiao, they are preparing to take the route of the fortress legion, and they are also training their troops. When the main attack of the devil is frustrated and retreats, they will take the opportunity to beat down the dog.

  Unable to go to the high ground at this time, Lin Xiao led the troops and hid behind the guard, preparing to wait for the final bargain.
