My Players Keep Grinding in the Post-Apocalyptic World

Chapter 254: Meeting a Shaman in the Snowy Mountains (Part 1)

Views:

Cheng Shaofeng led the top team to the snow mountain.

There was a chill in the air.

Xigou glanced at his smart watch and saw that the temperature had reached minus 60 degrees Celsius, with a layer of frost particles covering his body.

Ordinary people who come here will become a piece of ice after walking for a while.

but...

A trace of attributeless energy was released from the thin dog's dantian and flowed through his body, instantly making him warm.

The use of energy!

After such a long gaming experience, they have already mastered the use of energy. Not only can they use skills, but they can also use energy according to their needs.

Moreover, the top team is already level 28, so even if it is purely physical, they will have no problem walking in minus 60 degrees.

Low-level players are not so good. They have too little combat experience, have not mastered the use of energy, and their physical fitness cannot withstand such low temperatures. They will not be able to walk for long before they are plagued by various debuffs and then freeze to death on the snowy mountains.

Shadow Guard 2 emits energy to warm up his Level 5 clone Cheng Erfu.

The group climbed the first low snowy mountain leisurely.

Swish~

A silver figure ran past a big tree in front, dropping ice chips all over the ground.

Cheng Shaofeng: "Be careful!"

Zeng~

The players drew their swords.

Lin Tang took out his gun from behind, cast a spell on the barrel with his hand, and thawed it.

In this extremely low temperature... your gun must be well maintained before it can be fired.

Swish, swish, swish~

On the tree, the silver figure stepped and jumped continuously, allowing the players to capture its position.

"Binding Vines!"

The fox demon raised his purple staff and predicted the area the opponent would enter next. A bunch of green vines rose from the tree and directly netted the monster.

“Ahhh~”

The monster cried out in pain as its body was entangled in the fox's vines. It scratched at the vines frantically with its claws, trying to tear free. However, the fox's vines were extremely tough after they took shape, and it was unable to break free for the time being.

"Based on my many years of experience playing MOBA games... the more control skills a team has, the better, so that they can always take the initiative."

Shaman Class Skill: Binding Vines

Sprouts of thorny energy vines from beneath enemies' feet to restrict their movements

Energy consumption: 80

Skill Cooldown: 5 seconds

Duration: 20 seconds

Range: 7.5 meters

Physical damage of spikes: 98

Easy to trigger bleeding

The bound object will be pierced with plant toxins, reducing movement speed by 75% for 5 seconds

A soft control with low cooldown. Instead of directly stunning the enemy like Battle Roar, it creates a circular energy vine with a diameter of 7.5 meters to bind the opponent, who will continue to suffer damage in the vine.

The more you struggle, the more spikes will pierce you and the higher the damage!

If you give up struggling you won't get hurt.

Moreover, the slowing effect of the plant toxins is such that even if the opponent escapes from the vines, their movement speed will be greatly reduced by the continuous toxins, and they will not be able to recover until 5 seconds later.

Cheng Shaofeng: "Probably a scout from the Snowman tribe."

After they took a few steps, they saw the silver monster trapped in the tree.

A silver-white humanoid creature wearing animal skin clothes, but smaller than an ordinary human, only about 1.4 meters tall.

It struggled frantically in the vines, its body was pierced by holes, but not a drop of blood flowed out, but instead traces of white cold air.

When it saw the person coming, it opened its mouth and roared threateningly.

“Ahhhh!”

Lin Tang: "Hehe~ Little Snowman? His strength is average, he can't even break free from the vines..."

Whoosh~

The snowman threw an icicle and knocked Lin Tang away.

Everyone: “Hahahaha!”

Polar Bear: "I know that Lin Tang is only handsome for 3 seconds each time."

Cheng Shaofeng: "Don't underestimate this thing. Although its physical strength is average, its energy attack is very strong! Every snowman knows a variety of ice magic, and this is just the lowest level one."

Lin Tang rubbed his chest and stood up.

"It really hurts! I shouldn't have turned on 100% pain sensitivity!"

Ordovician Radiation: "Was it intentional or accidental?"

Lin Tang: "I was careless on purpose. I thought if I didn't turn on the sense of pain, how could I feel the atmosphere of the snow mountain? Only by retaining this sense of pain can I know that we are in the snow mountain, not other maps."

Ordovician Radiation: "Yes."

Lin Tang took a look at the damage value above his head and smiled again.

"This thing only sneaked up on me. It's useless to be on guard. Ice damage... 87 points. Tsk tsk~ pitifully low. I recovered in a few seconds."

He touched his ring and necklace at this time.

Two rings and a necklace, all inlaid with the Frozen Heart, increase ice resistance by 30%. Add the relic on the chest: Balance which increases elemental resistance by 20%, and the total ice resistance is 50%.

At levels 10 and 20, he increases all resistances by 10%, and with the specially selected equipment that increases ice resistance, he has now increased his ice resistance to 80%!

This is already the upper limit of the character!

Almost all seven members of the Peak Team pushed their ice resistance to the highest possible level.

They are very confident about this trip to the snowy mountains.

After trying to communicate with the snowman several times, it was obvious that the other party was not so intelligent and could not speak the human language, and was finally killed by the players.

Kill the Snowman Scout together, experience +80

"There are seven of us, so each of us has 80 points... That's a lot of experience! Even higher than the androids."

Before I could feel happy for 3 seconds, I heard "howling" sounds coming from deep in the snow-capped mountains, one after another.

Xigou's face darkened: "I know why this thing is called Snowman Scout..."

"Run! Find a defensive point!"

Including Cheng Shaofeng, there are 8 people in total, and French Fries is only level 6, so there are only 7 effective combatants.

Cheng Shaofeng was also embarrassed. When he came to explore this area before, he only saw a few kinds of ice creatures, but he didn't fight them. He didn't know that these things could be so ferocious.

Judging from the sounds, there must be dozens of them.

Demon Fox: "Come with me, there is a high slope over here, let's stand on it to defend."

They climbed to the commanding heights of this small snowy mountain, and Lin Tang set traps as he ran along the way.

"The snow mountain monster has a high ice resistance. My max-level ice runes + expansion skills are useless... I have to use the old skill Storm Box."

On the blasting side, he maxed out the Aura Flame Possession first, but had not maxed out the output skill Grenade. This skill was extremely powerful, but it had to be prepared in advance, and he didn't have much in stock.

After the road was filled with various storm boxes, Lin Tang climbed to a commanding height, set up his gun, and took aim.

The snowy mountain is covered in white, which makes the vision very uncomfortable when aiming, and the snowman monster always moves on the treetops, blocking the field of vision.

Bang bang bang!

After Lin Tang fired three shots, he didn't hit a single snowman.

"Damn! I hate high-speed monsters! Go ahead and fight them!"

After occupying the commanding heights, everyone felt a little more relaxed.

The summons of the Fox Demon and Lao Bai are defending at the edge of the highest platform. There are 2 plague demons, 2 skeleton warriors, and 4 skeleton mages, the most powerful combination.

The Plague Demon's huge body can block enemy attacks, and it has a lot of health, making it a solid front row.

The Skeleton Warrior's homing missile attack can forcibly stun a unit, which can effectively open up the situation.

The Skeleton Mage's ranged Vitality Fireball also deals high damage.

There are also 4 max-level void demons squatting on the edge of the platform, ready to spit flames at the snowmen climbing below. This is their extended skill Breath of the Abyss, a gift from Hades.

Polar Bear: "Harbinger of Chaos, burn the tree for me!"

The Chaos Herald hurled out inextinguishable fireballs, burning these hardy trees until they emitted black smoke.

Lao Ao: "Crow, fly!"

The crow flew up and kept reporting the high-altitude view to everyone.

Cheng Erfu also summoned three void demons to serve as manpower around him.

Demon Fox: "Everyone, turn on the halo!"

When the halo is on, it will continue to consume energy. The higher the level and the more people it covers, the more energy it consumes. So when not in combat, they keep a fox's death armor blood-adding halo on to prevent being attacked and killed instantly by monsters. The other halos are turned off.

Old White: "Battle flag, embodiment of virtue!"

A huge golden military flag appeared behind him, providing everyone with bonuses to physical damage, attack ability, life recovery, and melee energy absorption.

After the oath-keeping halo was turned on, a silver-white holy light shone on everyone, adding a hint of inviolable majesty.

Increases attack capability, energy recovery, physical counterattack, and brings with it a holy force when attacking the enemy. This holy force can ignore the enemy's external defense and directly strike deep into the enemy's flesh, causing internal trauma damage.

Hit the bull from behind the mountain!

With the two halos turned on, the mage can pick up a knife and fight bravely.

Lao Ao: "Blood of Dregg!"

Lin Tang: "Possessed by flames!"

Demon Fox: "Armor-piercing aura!"

The aura of the fox demon is given by the inlaid serrated spikes, a very old thing that was once installed in the spear of the thin dog and is still in use today.

Although the bonus is not high, each person increases 7 points of piercing damage and 25% piercing damage bonus, but it is better than nothing.

Mainly, I like the feeling of having a halo all over me.

This time, just max out the status.

After the summoned creatures were attached with this halo, a large circle of special effects were stacked on their bodies, making them look cool. Even Cheng Shaofeng's three little void demons dared to challenge the snowmen.

Pah pah pah~

Ahhh~

Ahhh~

The Storm Box below was constantly triggered, and the snowman monsters kept screaming. Their voices were shrill, like those of a grandfather, and made everyone's ears numb.

Their figures first appeared beside the tree burned by the Chaos Herald.

"Chichichigaga~"

"Wow wow wow ~ Ulala ~"

It rushed forward angrily, speaking in bird language that humans could not understand.

There are scouts wearing simple animal skins and waving sticks, snowman wizards holding wooden staffs, and even sturdy snowman warriors wearing armor and snowman priests wearing white clothes and holding branches.

With a bunch of mixed characters, they look the same as the players, with a complete range of professions.

Xigou: "Wow... Nowadays even monsters are divided into warrior, mage and priest? What a classic online game!"

Lin Tang: "Stop talking. If this game is full of warrior, mage and priest professions, I will be disgusted... Why do you think I made a 50-profession mod for Diablo III? It's because those few professions have been too disgusting for so many years. There is no creativity at all."

Yaohu: "The design of this game in terms of career settings and skill acquisition is quite interesting. I feel like I am progressing with the game... Lin Tang, start shooting!"

After revealing himself to the opposite side, Lin Tang was able to catch him.

Especially when the halo is added to the body, the attack ability is greatly improved!

His nerve reaction and dynamic vision have doubled. With micro-management and prediction, every shot will hit the target!

Bang bang bang!

The fire bomb blew the snowmen away.

Whoosh whoosh~

The Skeleton Mage's fireball smashed down, carrying with it the power of halo.

The others also took out their guns and fired indiscriminately at the people below.

Without the long-range expert skills of the Inquisitor profession, their shooting accuracy and power are far lower than Lin Tang, but... the density is high!

Just suppress the firepower!

Xigou and Laobai had already jumped down secretly.

Bang bang bang!

The snowmen were confused for a moment, and then one of the old-looking snowman wizards waved a black wooden staff, and a blizzard blew over, covering the lightning area of the Storm Box and the thick smoke from the burning trees.

The battlefield returned to its normal snow-capped mountain appearance.

The bullets fired by everyone were blown off course when they entered the blizzard area, completely losing their impact power.

Lin Tang's bullets can be controlled by energy, and can barely hit the target, causing some damage.

Wow~

The snowman priest smashed the branch in his hand to the ground, and layers of ice and snow floated up from the ground, repairing the bodies of the snowman warriors.

From the player's perspective:

Green blood-adding words appeared one by one...

Lao Ao: "Fuck the pastor, so disgusting!"

He raised his hand, and a green light flew out, filling up Lin Tang's health.

The two sides fired at each other from a distance, but neither could do anything to the other.

The top team has the advantage of terrain, a complete team configuration, resistance to cold damage, and blood recovery, so the opponent cannot reduce their blood volume.

The snowman troops have a geographical advantage. The ice and snow on the ground are their best supplements. They can recover their health infinitely through the spells cast by the snowman priests holding green branches.

The player's long-range firepower can't hit them at all.

Moreover... the snowman team is still growing and now has 40 members.

Xi Gou hid below and took a look at the situation. He shouted, "We can't delay any longer. You guys provide fire support while Lao Bai and I go break the formation! Lao Aola needs a lot of blood!"

Lao Ao and Yaohu shouted in unison: "No problem!"

We must resolve this quickly!

There is no telling how many snowmen there are in this vast snowy mountain.

"Lin Tang, throw the grenade!"

"Everyone scatter!"

"Summon creatures attack!"

Boom boom boom!

Lin Tang's grenade was extremely powerful, with a purely physical impact that blew a hole in the opponent's blizzard and knocked over several snowman wizards who were continuously casting spells.

Then a large number of explosive ammunition were fired, stirring up bursts of fire and smoke, forcing the snowmen to defend and replenish their blood.

The summoned creatures took the opportunity to jump down from the top of the mountain and attack the snowman with their bodies.

Two huge, full-level plague demons took the brunt of the attack, rushing into the snowman camp with corrosive poison mist, infecting them with deadly poison mist and holding them back at the risk of their lives.

In the sky, an inconspicuous green-headed queen bee flew over, flapping its wings and sprinkling a large amount of shit-yellow powder, corroding spots on the snowmen's bodies.

Ranger Skill: Hive Queen!

In the midst of a huge fight, Xigou and Laobai jumped out from the flank.

"Jump! Instant Shadow Slash!"

"Violent charge! Whirlwind slash!"

The third-level evolved Shadow Guard 2 floated out of the clone, his hands were muscular, and he jumped down from the top of the mountain:

"I'm here to lend you a hand!"
