The owner of Site No. 9 is a generous old man.
At least that was Tang Ling's perception.
Although the puppet that was given as a gift may not have very powerful attack power, its powerful ability to withstand strikes is astonishing.
You must know that Tang Ling's weapons are all B-grade alloy. He has to use all his strength and use the B-grade alloy dagger to cause some actual damage to the puppet, but it will not affect the puppet's movements.
This kind of thing is more terrifying than the corpse man.
Tang Ling calculated with precise instincts that it would take five minutes for him to completely destroy such a puppet as long as the B-grade alloy dagger was not damaged.
This is a very scary number.
First of all, the B-grade alloy dagger will definitely be damaged in the process of attacking the puppet.
Furthermore, Luo Li can control the puppet, and it is impossible for the puppet to stand there and let you keep attacking.
Therefore, in actual combat, taking into account various circumstances, it would take Tang Ling's current combat power at least 15 minutes to destroy a puppet.
If these puppets swarmed forward, Tang Ling would be no match.
Calculating it this way, can this old man not be generous? A dozen puppets are more powerful than a battalion of elite warriors at the Barrier of Hope.
Tang Ling was referring to a fully armed elite warrior battalion of 300 people based on the establishment of Security Zone 17.
"So, we can finally take a breath." Luo Xin opened the door at the end of the corridor.
A ray of slightly dazzling sunlight shone in, and the door opened, revealing the backyard of the house.
It's really weird. The balcony on the second floor leads to the backyard.
"Brother, are you having trouble controlling these puppets?" The three people stood in the backyard. After cracking the second formation, they could go to most places in the No. 9 Ruin.
"No effort." Luo Li was somewhat proud.
Luo Xin rolled her eyes at Luo Li. Tang Ling felt that Luo Li should be proud. When Luo Yan talked about Luo Li's talent, it was difficult for Tang Ling to understand what kind of talent it was.
Sixth sense? Mutant mental power? Or is it soul power? Judging from the description, it should be soul power, but this is probably based on the fact that people have souls, right
But it turns out that the talent that Tang Feng values so highly is so extraordinary.
"Luo Li, what does it feel like to control these puppets?" Tang Ling couldn't help but ask. Maybe this could help him understand Luo Li's talent
"Well, it's like a dozen of me. Do you know how it feels?" Luo Li didn't mean to hide anything and directly told Tang Ling how he felt.
This is awesome, is it a clone? Still such a powerful clone! Tang Ling was a little envious.
How dare this stupid guy suddenly become more powerful than him in combat
"Is it difficult to control a dozen at once? Will it cost you anything?" Tang Ling asked again.
This is a very important reference for his next arrangements.
"It's not difficult, but I feel that my limit is to control thirty puppets. Moreover, after controlling it for more than 5 minutes, I feel a little dizzy." Luo Li scratched the back of his head as he spoke, feeling embarrassed. smiled.
This finally made Tang Ling feel more balanced. If he could control it without any restrictions, he would be even more powerful than a Ziyue warrior.
"In that case, let's do this next." Tang Ling stretched out and began to tell his plan.
**
Ruins No. 9.
Two major formations, the second formation is hidden in the center of the first formation.
The first formation has a total of three levels of authority. If you crack one level, you can go deeper into Ruin No. 9.
So far, three days have passed.
Both Tang Ling and the others, as well as the Star Council, had cracked the second level formation.
Then, a battle began in Ruin No. 9.
This was a strange battle. From the beginning to the end, Tang Ling and the others never showed their faces. All that appeared were monsters wearing cloaks.
The attack capabilities of these monsters are powerful, at least for the soldiers led by Long Qi, they are extremely powerful.
One punch can probably deliver one to two bulls of power.
If that's all, it doesn't matter. The key is that these monsters are tireless and have terrifying resistance to strikes. The thermal weapons they carry cannot cause much harm to these monsters at all.
But once these monsters get close, they can easily take away the lives of a dozen soldiers.
The only ones who can fight these monsters are Long Qi and several of his elites.
But these monsters are very cunning. They never appear in groups, but are always divided into several teams.
The back and forth harassment of the Star Council troops made Long Qi and the others exhausted.
They don't even pursue any results. In short, when there is a possibility of being caught, they will retreat immediately, and then disperse and disappear in various alleys.
After fighting for nearly two and a half days, Long Qi's troops lost more than a hundred people, but Long Qi didn't catch any of these monsters.
On the contrary, the frequent appearance of these monsters made people panic. After all, no one knew what they were, and their hearts were filled with fear.
"Haha, no more searching." Tang Ling opened a gap in the blinds, looked at the outside world, and said lightly with a sneer on his lips.
He knew that it was only a matter of time before Long Qi cracked the second level formation.
And what was the first thing he did after breaking the formation? They must be searching for the location of the three of them.
Tang Ling never thought that he could resist Long Qi and Long Qi's entire army with these puppets.
But this harassment tactic could disrupt their search and make Long Qi avoid searching the entire town on a large scale.
Moreover, he could also let Luo Li use the puppets to harass the Koro team, which had no fighting capacity. This meant that Long Qi, who could fight the puppets, had to guard the Koro team.
Because ordinary soldiers simply cannot resist it.
And without the protection of Long Qi and several others, how could ordinary soldiers dare to search? Their military morale has been messed up.
Obviously, Tang Ling's method worked very well.
On the morning of the fourth day, Long Qi really gave up searching for the whereabouts of Tang Ling and the others, and began to tighten all his troops, occupying the ZF office, the largest building in the town, and staying there.
"Do I need to go there and kill a few more of them?" Luo Li's eyes were filled with excitement. The two and a half days of fighting made him feel very brave, killing more than a hundred of the opponent's troops.
"No need, we have to grab time now." Tang Ling rubbed his swollen forehead, and then said to Luo Li, "Don't you realize that your puppet's actions require energy consumption?"
In the house, there was a naked puppet that Tang Ling and Luo Xin specially stayed to study.
It turns out that on the puppet's body as thin as a bamboo pole, in the part corresponding to the human heart, there is a small cover that can be opened.
After opening it, you can see the complex structure inside the puppet. It includes some mechanical craftsmanship from pre-civilizations and a mysterious technology, which complement each other and form the internal framework of the puppet.
What is this mysterious technology? Tang Ling and Luo Xin couldn't give it a name. They only knew that it only appeared in key parts of the structure. It was a key technology that allowed the puppet to move freely and indistinguishably from human movements.
It is a crystal similar to the magic pattern symbol, installed in the key parts of some connections.
More importantly, this puppet also has a heart, a diamond-shaped heart, with a small universal energy stone inlaid on the heart. This universal energy stone is the energy source for these puppets to move.
After two and a half days of fighting, Tang Ling found that the universal energy stone had dimmed a bit. He calculated with precise instincts that this small universal energy stone could support the puppet for a maximum of ten days of fighting.
This shows that these puppets are simply money-burning machines. How precious is the universal energy stone
"They can self-destruct. If the energy is about to run out, I can self-destruct two of them. I guarantee that Long Qi." After controlling the puppets for two days, Luo Li had a deeper and deeper understanding of these puppets.
He clenched his fists, and when he talked about Long Qi, his eyes filled with anger.
Tang Ling patted Luo Li on the shoulder and said, "Don't waste these puppets unless necessary. You must know that the materials that make them up are the most precious."
While talking, Tang Ling walked up to the naked puppet, deftly removed the puppet's limbs from the joints, adjusted the angle, opened the small door at the heart, and pressed the two buttons behind the door. button.
I saw the puppet's head automatically retracting into the body, and four grooves appeared on the bamboo pole-like body, which can just fit the removed limbs into them. After the limbs are placed, the whole body will shrink again and become thin.
After this change, the entire puppet turned into a stick half as long as a human and as thick as an arm.
This stick is very strong and can be used as a weapon in emergencies. The key is that it is easy to carry and not heavy. Anyway, it is no problem for a big man like Luo Li to carry more than a dozen sticks on his back.
Tang Ling wanted Luo Li to take away these dozen puppets so that he could have more security in the Port of Darkness in the future.
Just imagine, with such a puppet, how could Tang Ling be willing to let Luo Xin blow himself up? What a waste of natural resources!
As for the universal energy stone, after cracking the last formation, you should see a big one!
When the time comes, it shouldn’t be a problem to find a way to take some away.
Thinking of this, Tang Ling turned back and glanced at Luo Xin. At this time, Luo Xin was still busy calculating. The formation that three generations of the Luo family had not completely cracked was now in the hands of Luo Xin alone. Time is still so tight. She was under tremendous pressure.
But luckily for Tang Ling, he was simply a genius in formations, even though Tang Ling said that this was actually related to his talent.
Luo Xin still couldn't understand, what talent was related to the formation
"How long will it take?" Tang Ling knelt down and asked Luo Xin.
"As long as you compare the last three sets of symbols, I can determine the starting point of the third formation. But I feel that the situation is not good." Luo Xin raised his head and leaned against the wall to rest for a while.
Calculating for such a long time really made her very tired.
Tang Ling took the three sets of symbols given to him by Luo Xin and began to quickly compare them. With Tang Ling's current understanding of the battle method, he has gone a step further. He can no longer compare mechanically, but can add some of his own inferences. , speeding up the entire comparison process.
Luo Li opened the blinds.
The morning light that remains unchanged for thousands of years enters the room, with large lawns, neat roads, red roofs, white wooden walls, a church in the center, and some small squares, a typical Western town.
At this time, the town was so peaceful and peaceful, and the people walking around in the town made the town so lively.
However, the troops of the Star Council were very afraid of these figures and had been harassed by the puppets for several days. Many soldiers of the Star Council firmly believed that these figures were 'ghosts'.
Thinking of this, Luo Li couldn't help but feel funny. He leaned against the window and snored.
At this time, Tang Ling finally handed the result written on the paper to Luo Xin: "After comparing it, I can confirm where the third starting point is. Although it is hard for me to believe this result."
Rubbing his swollen brows, Tang Ling pointed out a place on the complete formation diagram that Luo Xin had spread out.
Luo Xin opened his eyes and looked at that place with a wry smile on his face: "Sure enough, this is the outcome I least expected."
The place Tang Ling pointed to corresponded to the small town, right in the center of a small square.
The structure of this small square is very simple, with a few big trees, a few benches, and a stone monument.
The starting point turned out to be that stone monument.
A very ordinary stone tablet with a square pillar and a sharp top. I don’t know what it means.
But the simpler this starting point is, the weirder it feels and the more difficult it is to crack.
Because it has no road, no specific direction, and most importantly, if they go to that place to break the formation, it means directly confronting the Star Council.
There is no hiding.
"What should I do?" Luo Xin looked at Tang Ling.
"At this point, we must break the third level of formation." Tang Ling stood up and took a deep breath.
In the past three days, he had been studying formation knowledge. Luo Xin also explained a lot to him, and he already had a decision in his mind.
"If you want to save time, I will break this formation. Do you believe me?" Tang Ling looked at Luo Xin. He could not explain his precise instinct to Luo Xin in too specific a way.
But in fact, with his precise instinct, he may not be as good as Luo Xin in setting up formations, but he is really faster than Luo Xin in breaking formations.
Even Tang Ling couldn't bear to tell Luo Xin that a few hours ago, he had already figured out where the starting point of the third level formation was.
However, in order to protect Luo Xin's strong self-esteem, and to become familiar with the notes of three generations of Luo's family again, and to sort out an idea for breaking the formation in his mind, he did not say anything.
"Are you sure?" Luo Xin asked seriously.
"I'm 40% sure. The point is, if I can successfully crack it, the time will be faster." Tang Ling didn't mean to joke at all.
"Well, I'll leave it to you to crack it." Luo Xin agreed.
But everyone knows that the next crack will usher in the most difficult situation, and they will have to face the people of the Star Council.
