Zhang Yang ignored the monster. There was no point in wasting time on a mere ordinary monster.
Although there were monsters in the air, they were far less numerous than on the ground. Zhang Yang only encountered a few monsters sporadically and then arrived at his destination.
—Molten Ash Caverns.
This is the lair of the ogres in the entire map. Although Zhang Yang did not enter it, just by looking at the number of ogres going in and out of the cave, you can know how many monsters are inside!
[Ashe Ogre] (Elite, Humanoid)
Level: 125
HP: 1.25 million
Armor value: 1300
Melee attack power: 8381-10381
Skill:
[Crazy Hammer]: Strike the target crazily, causing physical damage equivalent to 150% of melee attack, and has a certain chance of making the target unconscious.
[Stone Throwing]: Throws stones at distant targets, causing physical damage equivalent to 100% of melee attack. Instant. Cooldown time: 2 seconds. Range: 3-30 meters.
This monster can attack at close range or from a distance. If you pull too many of them at once, it's easy to kill them with one volley! The key is that it can also attack from a distance, making any positioning and kite tactics seem very effective.
It's impossible to force your way in. The monsters here are too densely distributed. If you attract them, there will be a lot of them and you won't even know how you died!
This is actually equivalent to the main city of the ogres. Imagine if a monster broke into Baiyu City, it would be met with a brutal onlooker.
Zhang Yang rode the flying snake to a nearby river and landed there. There was a small thatched cottage beside the river.
He jumped off the flying snake, opened the thatch wall outside with a "squeak", came to the door of the hut, and knocked hard on it twice.
Unfortunately, the door was already in tatters and could not withstand such force. It broke with a clang.
"Damn it, which bastard did this!" A figure rushed out of the house with a shout.
Zhang Yang quickly moved to the side, only to see a ten-meter-tall male ogre appear outside the hut, grinning at him with an unfriendly look.
[“Honest” Guluo] (Elite, humanoid)
Level: 120
HP: 1.2 million
Armor value: 1300
Melee attack power: 8352-10352
Skill:
[Escape]: When Gululuo's health is below 20%, he will try to escape.
That's him! Zhang Yang thought to himself.
"Ogre, go to hell!" Zhang Yang shouted softly, and the Devouring Sword swung up, slashing towards Gululuo. In the sky, Fei Ling and the Flying Snake also launched attacks, forming a three-way joint attack.
Guluo was furious, waving his two big fists and attacking Zhang Yang, and they fought fiercely. But how could a mere elite be a match for Zhang Yang and his two men and one snake? He was soon beaten black and blue, and even his mother couldn't recognize him!
When the monster's health dropped to 20%, the huge ogre raised his left hand ostentatiously, and his figure suddenly faded and disappeared from the spot!
This is Gululuo's skill, Escape, which is actually the thief's "disappearance" skill!
Zhang Yang stepped on the ground at the right time, launching a thunderous strike. In a flash of lightning, Gululuo's tall figure was knocked out of stealth.
Seeing Zhang Yang about to attack again, Gululuo begged for mercy, saying, "Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"
Zhang Yang remained unmoved, still wielding the sword as fast as the wind, chopping at Gululuo's health bar frantically.
"I'm not an ogre! Stop hitting me!" Gululuo cried again.
Zhang Yang stopped, but still pointed his sword at the other party, and said with a smile: "When a pig says it is not a pig, does anyone believe it?"
"I'm really not an ogre!" Guluo stretched out his hand and tore his chest. In a flash, the tall ogre disappeared immediately, and a red-bearded dwarf less than 1.2 meters tall appeared. In his right hand, there was a strange piece of clothing that flashed a faint white luster.
Zhang Yang's eyes lit up immediately. This was why he came to find this NPC! This piece of clothing is called "Ogre Coat." After wearing it, the player can transform into an ogre for 24 hours. After transforming into an ogre, the player's relationship with the ogre will become friendly. The player can walk into the Molten Ash Cave, complete some of the ogre's tasks, and eventually buy some of the ogre's "specialties".
Zhang Yang's goal is to enter the deepest part of the Molten Ashes Cave, where the first piece of the God of War inheritance fragment is, so he needs to find this NPC first to get the Ogre Coat.
"Dwarf?" Zhang Yang laughed and said, "I don't want to kill you, just give me that piece of clothing!"
"No! No!" Gululuo shook his head like a rattle. "I spent all my life's possessions to make this! I would rather die than give it to you!"
Although the word "honesty" is in the name of this person, it is in quotation marks. Zhang Yang had dealt with this person in his previous life, so how could he not know his character? He said coldly: "Well, I will kill you first, and this dress will naturally belong to me!"
Gululuo blinked his eyes, as if he didn't know how to respond. Seeing Zhang Yang raised the sword again, he hurriedly said, "No, no, no! Can't I tell you that this ogre coat has a time limit. Even if I give it to you, you can't use it for anything! However, if you really want it, as long as you have all the materials, I can make it for you!"
"Ding! 'Honest' Gululuo has issued you a task: Make an ogre coat. Do you accept it?"
This ogre coat cannot be obtained by force, it can only be obtained by completing quests.
Zhang Yang nodded, accepted the task, and opened the task list to check the instructions for the task.
[Make an Ogre Coat] (Task Difficulty: Level)
Mission description: As long as you gather the following materials, Gululuo will make you an ogre coat for free. The materials are: 1,000 pieces of magic pattern cloth (you can get them from any humanoid monster above level 90), 20 bottles of magic dye (you can buy them from the traveling merchant Antaga), 5 complete furs of psychedelic deer (you can skin them after killing an adult psychedelic deer, which are in the Psychedelic Valley in the west).
Completion: Collect Magic Pattern Cloth 1281000, Magic Dye 020, Psychedelic Deer Complete Fur 05
Mission Reward: Ogre Coat x1
[Ogre Coat]（Item）
Use: Disguise yourself as an ogre. Although Gululuo's skills are quite poor, it is still very easy to fool those ogres with an IQ of less than 5! However, you have to be careful of those iron-fanged white wolves. They have very sharp noses and can easily distinguish the appearance! Stay away from those wolf cubs, otherwise they will expose your disguise!
Required level: 100
Binds when picked up.
Among the three quest items, Magic Pattern Cloth requires a large amount but is the easiest to obtain. You just need to kill humanoid monsters. Magic Dye is more difficult. Although you can buy it as long as you can afford it, this traveling merchant Antaga is very restless and has no fixed place to stay. Instead, he keeps wandering around on this map, making it very difficult to find.
In the previous life, there was a player who did nothing all day long. He just followed this NPC and sold the coordinates of this NPC to other players who wanted to complete the "Make Ogre Coat" task. He only charged 1 gold coin at a time, which was very cheap. However, after two years, that player actually accumulated millions of wealth!
It shows how hard it is to find Antaga, which makes so many players willingly pay to buy his coordinates!
Even though Zhang Yang had a flying mount, it was still very difficult for him to find a specific person in the vast land. If he flew too high, he would not be able to see things below clearly, and if he flew too low, his field of vision would become very narrow.
But there is no other way. For the sake of the God of War's inheritance, he has to keep searching even if it means his feet are worn out!
He left Gululuo's hut on his flying snake and flew away. Although Antaga had been wandering around the big map, there were still four fixed routes. If the player had a flying mount, he could still find the NPC by flying around the four fixed routes once or twice, relying on the high speed of the flying mount.
It's just this time...
After spending two full days of gaming time, Zhang Yang finally found the trace of Antaga ahead! The moment he saw the NPC, he felt like vomiting blood!
brush!
The flying snake descended, and Zhang Yang jumped off his mount and said, "Traveling merchant, let me see your goods!"
"You have good taste. You know I have good stuff here. What do you want? A nude portrait of Countess Feste, or a video of the elf priestess Phoebe Moonwalker taking a bath. The whole process was recorded with the most advanced magic memory crystal to ensure clear image quality. There is no mosaic in the key parts!" This Antaga is a human man in his thirties, with a full beard, looking like a vicissitudes of life uncle. As he said this, he took a large cloth bag from his back and poured out a lot of items in front of Zhang Yang.
Zhang Yang was sweating profusely. There were definitely more wretched men in this game than just Messick!
He searched the sales catalog and finally saw what he needed to buy, "Magic Dye." Each bottle was not very expensive, only 5 gold coins. The task required 20 bottles, which was only 100 gold coins. But it took him two whole days to find this 100 gold thing. It was really infuriating!
This magic dye is still bound to pickup, so everyone who buys it can only use it themselves! Otherwise, if you buy a lot and sell it back, your business will definitely not be very good!
Zhang Yang bought a total of 100 bottles, enough to make five ogre coats. Why so many? Although he knew that the War God inheritance fragment was deep in the ogre's cave, he didn't know exactly where it was, so he needed to search slowly!
To be on the safe side, it is better to prepare a few more materials. It is not a big deal to spend a few dollars! Otherwise, it would be a big loss to run for two days and two nights just for a few hundred gold coins!
After putting away the magic dye, Zhang Yang resisted the urge to chop Antaga to death with a sword, and rode on the flying snake again, looking for his next target - the psychedelic deer.
"Buy another copy of the latest work of the great playwright Mr. Chen, 'A Crazy Night with Zhihui and Xie Te', young man!" Antaga's obscene hawking voice still came from below, constantly echoing between heaven and earth.
