Chapter 262 Water Battle
This wild dwarf who had no idea where he came from, the four of them watched him speechlessly hugging the box and making trouble, and they were still confused.=
"Tell me, what's going on? This is a box that I finally took out from the bottom of the lake. I wasted a bottle of underwater breathing potion. How could it be yours after I caught it?" Osha asked the dwarf with annoyance. She was preparing to unbox her mysteriously just now to see what treasures there were inside.
"Ah, my dear friend, did you really come from the bottom of the lake? So that's it, it must be those damn fishmen who did a good job."
This "half-ling" who is only half the height of an ordinary person and looks older than an adult, as if he had thought about it, and then he told everyone the whole story: "I am a craftsman from Iron Lubao. I contracted a business released by the Lord of Hupan Town. I plan to assemble several war machinery in the fortifications on both sides of the Zhishui Lake Bridge, including steam tanks, to build the permanent defense system of this bridge and defend against the destruction of the Black Stone Orcs. My work
The people took the lead and finally packed the parts here and piled them up, waiting for me to bring the engineers to assemble them. As a result, in just one night, they found that ten boxes were missing, and the militia guarding disappeared. At first we thought it was the militia who was robbing himself, but after expert identification, it was possible that it was attacked by unknown creatures late at night. The poor guy might have been dead, and the box containing the parts was unknown.
"If we lack these boxes, our project cannot be done at all. We have to wait a long time to pick up goods from the Iron Fort. Moreover, the funds have suffered heavy losses. I don't know what to do here, but I found this box here and I was still fished out from the lake. According to this reason, it is probably the group of hateful fishmen who attacked the stockpile site late at night. After killing people and robbing things, they found that there was nothing they wanted in it, and they were thrown into the lake. This must be the case."
"Look at you, you seem to be powerful mercenaries, so let's do it. I'll post a mercenary mission to you. Help us collect the other nine identical boxes lost in the lake. I will give you satisfactory wages, and there is also a piece of blue equipment for you."
When I heard that there was blue equipment to give it, Egg and the others were immediately moved. But he was still careful and winked. Claya pulled out his sword and pried open the box. The dwarf did not stop it. After unboxing, he found that there were indeed some metal gears, pipes and other things inside. It was useless for the fish to get these things, no wonder they would throw them away.
"Since you already know it's at the bottom of the lake, why don't you go down and catch it yourself?" asked Eiger.
"You know, our dwarfs are all great inventors and engineers, and the water is not very good. The lake is deep and there may be fierce fishmen swimming inside. It is more convenient for you mercenaries to take action."
Having a fisherman is the key point? After understanding the whole story, the Warcraft Mercenary Group that was originally here to do the mission will naturally not refuse. After accepting it, Eiger checked the system prompts.
Tip: Congratulations on completing the "Hillary's Necklace" mission and obtaining a two-star neutral blue minion card "Demon Addict". It has been added to Hearthstone Book, please check it yourself.
Tip: Your level is upgraded to level 26.
Tip: You have accepted the task of "Recycling Lost Boxes".
Hey, I didn't expect that Osa accidentally helped the girl find a necklace, and the system was also determined to have completed a task. Because the difficulty was not high, the reward was a two-star card. However, the blue quality supplemented the level disadvantage, and the very good extra income. The bottle of underwater breathing potion was not in vain. As for the level improvement, it was not surprising that his experience had been accumulated for a long time and was just a normal upgrade. After all, the level of the three girls was as high as level 32, and the upgrade required more experience, so there was no movement yet.
The magic addict is a beautiful female blood elf. The figure of two stars 1-3 is a bit "slim" and is addicted to drugs.
However, the special effects brought by the blue quality are pretty good. Originally, every time the hero casts a spell, she will get +2 attacks. This can be stacked with many layers. The theoretical maximum is that if you have up to 9 spells in your hand, after all of them are released, you can add 18 points of damage to her in this round. Adding 1 point of damage to herself is 19-3, but this is too difficult to achieve.
There is no concept of turn for the physical card, so there are corresponding changes. After summoning her, each spell cast will give her +2 attacks. This effect lasts for one day, but cannot exceed 10 attacks.
Because the limit of 10 attacks cannot exceed the limit, she is at most 10-3. On the other hand, as long as any spell card is shot, she will change from 1-3 to 3. As long as 4 spell cards are shot, it will be 9-3, and 5 spell cards are shot, it will be 10-3. There is no point in more. For a two-star minion, this beauty has a very high potential and is worthy of long-term collection.
...
Considering that this guy who claims to be a dwarf inventor provided an important clue, that is, there may be fishmen swimming in the lake, so Osha can't do this job alone, and he has to search the remaining 9 boxes in the lake. Although it is much better than finding a needle in a haystack, it will definitely take a lot of time. Four people will do it together faster. In addition, Egg felt that this task coincides with the "fishmen's fins" and can be completed together. Although he was originally planning to find a fishmen village and then start the village slaughter mode, the task items collected will be more and the money reward will definitely be generous. But how to say, the official will care about this commission in copper coins and silver coins?
As for the cards obtained by completing the task, in terms of the system's urinary nature, it is mostly due to luck lottery, and it has no necessarily related to the amount of items paid for. If it goes well, let's do it together. Anyway, collect more than 10 of them and then you will be able to complete them.
"Claya and Alice came to get a bottle of underwater breathing potion. Osa's potion effect has not yet ended. It should be able to last until the search task is completed. If it really doesn't work, you can get out of the water first. Turn on the humanoid tracking mode. There are hidden fishmen in the lake. We will kill 10 of them by the way, which will just complete another task released by the lord. You can disperse a little, but don't be too far away. Alice is in the middle and is ready to support the three of us at any time. If you have any problems, let's act together."
"yes!"
Four people entered the water one after another. Even if the water is not good, they don’t have to worry about breathing problems with the effect of underwater respiratory agents. This agent will turn the surface skin of people into which they can absorb oxygen from the water within the time of action, which is very useful. However, the problem is that the water of the Shui Lake Lake is not clear and cannot see too far after going into the water, which is particularly troublesome when performing search tasks. There is another big problem, that is, you cannot talk underwater...
Egg saw Osha anxiously making various gestures in Claya's direction, but he happened to find a box that was traversing among the water plants, and did not notice anything wrong. The huntress has a way to track it, right?
Following Osha's gaze, he soon discovered that there was a fishman waiting to go in the dense water grass next to him. He held a harpoon and waited. After it felt that there was no problem with the distance, he quickly kicked his legs and shot straight into Claya like an arrow in the water. It was not until this time that the female warrior discovered the hidden danger, but after all, it was a defensive warrior who had been fighting on the front line for a long time. She did not panic and raised her shield to push up to this. But she forgot a problem, which was in the water...
Defensive warriors are usually rooted in the land. The stability of the lower plate is an important indicator to measure whether a defensive warrior is strong, but in the water, can they stabilize? As soon as she exerts force, she feels something is wrong. There is resistance everywhere in the water, and she cannot use the force, which makes her blocking movements deformed a little.
"Ice Arrow!"
An ice arrow dragged the long tail to shoot the sneak attacking fishman, and there was a state that was obviously frozen and slowed down. The health was cut by more than one-third, which scared the fishman and instantly turned the hunter into prey. Taking this opportunity, Claya calmed down. She slowly adapted to the resistance in the water. With a shield, she smashed the sneak attacking harpoon, and then a few tricky swords turned it into a dead fish. She let the blood stain the surrounding waters red, and she casually cut off the dorsal fin of the fishman and got the first task item.
With this experience of being ambushed, everyone seems more cautious. Even if they find boxes, they need to confirm whether there are fishmen around them ambushing them. Not to mention, this method is very useful, especially after the human-shaped tracking of hunters, fishmen who want to attack sneakily are easily found, and then they are beaten up. Moreover, these fishmen are generally not strong enough, so almost no priests need to take action.
Of course, the bottom of the water is the home court of the fish people, and they can move freely, while Eiger and others are all humans, and their away games are restricted everywhere. Fortunately, the sound insulation barrier of the mage is strong enough, and even the warning infrasound waves issued by the fish people in the water can be intercepted, so it can always create a situation of fighting one more. Otherwise, if it attracts groups of people running around, and it is still in the water, even Eiger will have a scalp blown up after thinking about it.
Finally, they collected 16 fishman dorsal fins and salvaged 8 boxes. The last one was the only one left. They searched back and forth over and over again, but found nothing. Everyone had to turn their eyes to the dark deep water area.
Before, they had fantasies, hoping to collect enough mission items in relatively shallows, but it was obvious that this fantasy was shattered. There was a deeper water in the center of the lake. Although the area was not large, their intuition told them that it was very dangerous, as if there were inexplicable creatures hidden. If you were to enter it, you might be in trouble. And you would fight in the water that everyone was not very adaptable to, so you could avoid it.
Chapter completed!
