Volume 2: The Road to Dragon Feast Chapter 70 Kill! Kill! Kill!
Razidanan wanted to persuade him again, but the Alterac hunter had already walked towards the cave not far away.
The NPC doesn't waste time talking to you. He just does whatever he's told. He draws his bow and shoots an arrow directly into the darkness. He doesn't care whether he has shot all the arrows and just runs away. A few seconds later, a snake skinner rushes out.
"Come on, everyone, get out of the way and watch me solo it!"
The soldiers obediently separated to both sides, and the Alterac Hunter who attracted the hatred ran directly behind Murphy.
Murphy watched the snake man rushing towards him, so he swung his giant sword and chopped him down on the head. However, the snake man nimbly dodged by turning sideways and poked Murphy with the snake bone spear in his hand.
With a whoosh, the body without armor was easily pierced.
-75! Damn, it hurts so much, Murphy quickly put away his sword, but before he could put it back, the snake man thrust another spear.
-98!
Damn, the damage is a bit high. Without a shield and armor, Murphy's health of just over 1,000 can't withstand a few hits.
He did not dare to hesitate, and hurriedly swung up the giant sword and swept it across. This time the snake man had no place to hide, and the giant sword on the door panel directly knocked the snake man away, -475!
This sword reduced the snake man to low health. Before the snake man could rush forward to fight, Murphy turned around and swept across with another sword, -412 (248 points of excess damage)!
With a snap, the snake man was cut in half.
Looking at the half-body of the snake man with a bunch of mosaic blood flowing out of his waist, Murphy thought that this thing was really violent when it came to chopping people, the damage was simply explosive.
He calculated silently.
The dragon-slaying giant sword has a damage of 100-200, and with the damage boost of 55 points of strength, a full-strength strike can deal about 550-1100 damage. It can almost kill these snakemen instantly, whose health is generally only 500-600.
The reason why I say "almost" is mainly because of the freedom of this game. If you use the same sword to strike with full force, half force, or even a light swing, the damage will be completely different.
If you sweep horizontally, the force is dispersed and the damage is obviously not as concentrated as a heavy chop, so you need two swords.
But the left and right sweeps have a larger attack area and are obviously safer for dealing with small monsters. Heavy slashes should only be used against large monsters .
Murphy drank a bottle of healing potion and asked his men to lure two more snake people over.
This time he came up and swept directly, and the two snake men flew out together. Then he swept in the opposite direction, and the two snake men also followed in the footsteps of their predecessors.
I killed seven or eight snake people one by one, and encountered danger twice during the process. Thanks to my younger brother for his timely support.
Murphy also gradually mastered the use of the giant sword.
In general, the greatsword is a weapon with obvious advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage can be summed up in one word: powerful. The damage is explosively high, especially the heavy slash from top to bottom. As long as it hits, the enemy will basically be killed instantly. Although the damage of the sweep is slightly lower, it has a large attack range and a knockback effect, making it very useful when facing groups of monsters.
But the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, the speed of drawing and sheathing the sword is too slow. Each sword has a recovery period of about 1.5 seconds. 1.5 seconds may seem short, but if the enemy is fast enough, he can take this opportunity to attack you closely.
If you are dealing with ordinary monsters, it's okay. Just control the rhythm and timing and chop as many as you can.
But if the enemy is an intelligent or agile character, I'm afraid I'll be badly controlled by him.
And since he was not wearing any armor, his defense was basically as thin as paper, and two random blows could cut off half of his blood.
It's not easy to deal with mages or shooters. If you don't have the skill to charge, you will have to take at least two or three rounds of magic or shooting when you rush to them. It feels like you will be kited to death.
The solution is also very simple, just get two charge skills.
Murphy put away the sword with some regret, put on a set of knight armor again, and looked at the knight sword in his hand. The attack power was only 5-35, but it was safe.
In general, if you want to master the greatsword, you still need a lot of practice, as well as the support of other supporting skills and attributes. The strength attribute may need to be further increased. 55 points of strength can only be rotated. If you want to be able to send and receive freely, Murphy estimates that at least 90-100 strength is required.
Endurance also needs to be increased. Using a giant sword consumes a lot of physical strength. If you don’t have enough physical strength, you will need to recover after three sword strikes, and your sustained combat capability is too poor.
Of course, physical fitness must also be improved. Without a shield to protect yourself, you can't wear heavy armor. If your health volume is not increased, you will really be a glass cannon.
It seems that there is still a long way to go. Even if the attributes grow fivefold, it feels completely insufficient.
Murphy then spent another two hours chopping snakemen, and at the same time familiarized himself with the use of the dragon-slaying giant sword.
He didn't dare to use it recklessly when facing a large number of monsters. Although he really wanted to try the feeling of rushing into the monster pile and swinging the giant sword to become invincible, he had no life-saving skills. If he messed up, he would probably die suddenly.
However, he was also slowly increasing the number of monsters he faced at one time, from one or two at the beginning, to three or four later, to a maximum of five snakemen besieging at one time (of course, on the premise that there were people defending on both sides).
Different from the safe fighting style of longsword and shield, the greatsword style is about charging forward and risking your life. You must have the feeling of risking everything, and at the same time be able to remain calm while being extremely excited, and accurately calculate the timing of each sword swing.
As long as the giant sword can hit the target when it is swung, even if it cannot kill the enemy instantly, the huge impact force is enough to chopped down, knocked down, or swept over.
When facing multiple enemies, there is the tension of being surrounded and killed at any time, and the refreshing feeling of cutting the enemy in half, splitting them in half, or beating them into a paste with one sword. This absolutely dominant fighting style is both exciting and efficient. After a burst of slashing, there are corpses all over the ground. This is the romance of the giant sword man!
However, the consumption of physical strength is quite great. He can only swing the sword three times at most at a time. If there are still enemies standing after three swords, he can only rely on his younger brothers to deal with them.
Murphy put the giant sword back into his bag and changed into knight armor. It was getting dark and he had to go back to the camp. He didn't want to be seen in this outfit.
When he entered the game the next morning, Murphy planned to continue upgrading and add a few more points to his stamina. However, to his surprise, the snowstorm stopped.
The storm on the top of the mountain was still there and the sky was still gloomy, but other than that , there was not a single snowflake in the sky.
Seeing Murphy coming out of the tent, Muradin Bronzebeard, who was not far away, immediately greeted him enthusiastically.
Muradin changed his clothes today. He was no longer wearing an expedition suit, but a heavy suit of armor that shone with silver light. He was wrapped tightly from head to toe, like a human tank. He had a battle axe and a war hammer hanging around his waist, and a spare two-handed battle axe on his back. It was obvious that he was ready to fight, and even his title had changed.
Muradin Bronzebeard (King of the Hill): "Ah, Prince Aidan, you haven't left yet. I decided to go to the ruins today to investigate. What do you think? Do you have the courage to come with me?"
Murphy also changed his title to a combat title.
Aidan Perenolde (Knight of the North Wind): "Of course, I would love to."
"Hahaha, that couldn't be better."
Haomiao Ruyan also came out of the tent, stretched his waist, and was surprised to see that the snow had stopped.
Soon the dwarf expedition team was assembled, with a total of twelve dwarf musketeers, eight dwarf diggers, and two explorers, Muradin Bronzebeard and Vast as Smoke, leading the team.
Murphy also gathered his troops. Together, there were nearly forty people on both sides, winding their way towards the ancient ruins.
Soon the team arrived at the area where the snake people appeared.
While Murphy was still thinking about how to arrange the plan, Muradin had already taken the lead and walked towards the snowfield where countless caves were hidden. When he came to an open space, he suddenly raised the hammer in his hand.
A thunderous strike!
Boom! The entire ground instantly broke into pieces. Pieces of snow were shattered, revealing dark caves.
Those disturbed snake people rushed out in groups, so many in number that they formed a black mass.
Murphy was shocked. He didn't expect the dwarves to use such a violent method. He was still thinking about how to command the battle.
Dwarf throw! Muradin flew into the air, landed in the group of snakemen with a big jump, and stepped on two of them.
"Get away you damned monsters!"
Heroic Strike!
With one blow of the hammer, the snake man turned into a snake cake.
"Let me show you how powerful the dwarves are."
A thunderous strike!
Boom! Electricity flew everywhere, and the ground was cracked with cracks.
"Take my hammer!"
Brutal strike!
Bang! A snake man was smashed and flew out. Wherever he passed, snake men scattered like bowling balls and rolled all over the ground.
"Haha, that's it!" Muradin laughed, holding a war hammer in one hand and a battle axe in the other, he was madly hacking at the snakemen. He was wearing heavy armor made of thorium, and the snakemen's weapons would mark him with words like immune, immune, not penetrated, not penetrated.
Dozens of them were killed in one breath, and the remaining snake people shouted and fled in all directions.
"Hahaha, that's it! Hey, what are you guys still standing there for? Come on in with me."
Murphy was speechless and happy at the same time. It really was great to have a big boss. He was worthy of being a gold level 5 hero. Killing these monsters was as easy as killing chickens.
The group headed directly towards the ruins. The snakemen popped out from the caves on both sides from time to time, but were immediately hit by a volley of fire from the dwarf musketeers and the kingdom's crossbowmen.
Muradin just rushed forward, dispersing any snakemen who dared to gather in groups. He killed his way through the entire snakeman nest in one breath and rushed to the entrance of the ruins.
"We can't kill all of these snake people, but as long as we kill their leader, they will be scared and never dare to show their heads again. My intuition tells me that their boss must be in the ruins ahead. What do you think, everyone? Let's rush in."
[System prompt: Triggering plot event, [Tongtian Peak Ruins Excavation Event], you are about to enter the plot event area, please be prepared.]
Plot event! It seems that there is indeed danger down there. Murphy's heart trembled, and Muradin Bronzebeard had already rushed in.
