The Invincible Overlord of Heroes
Chapter 198 Pathfinding
When the instructor introduced it here, Xu Lai couldn't help but have doubts.
He said to the instructor: "That's not right, I remember the information said that the ultimate pathfinding technique can reduce the impact of terrain by 125%.
Why do you say that the most difficult terrain in the world is the swamp?
If that's the case, then why is there ultimate pathfinding? "
The instructor said coldly: "The ultimate pathfinding technique certainly has its meaning.
I said that the most difficult road in the world is the swamp road, followed by the desert and lava.
The world of lava is relatively rare and only appears in volcanic areas, but it is still there after all.
If demons invade, they will also have the ability to transform the land under their feet into lava terrain.
However, there is a kind of terrain that does not exist in this world. "
"Doesn't exist in this world?"
The instructor continued: "Yes, whether they are orcs or animal trainers, they have just been driven to the edge by us and still live in this world.
But in theory, demons should live in hell, and the undead should not survive. Death is the end. "
Xu Lai said: "You mean, the ultimate pathfinding technique actually corresponds to the terrain of the undead?"
The instructor nodded and said: "After passing through the Cursed Land, you will arrive at the Corroded Land where the undead live. It is a place where no living creature can survive, because the terrain there corrodes the souls of living people all the time.
Only the immortal undead can survive in that place.
There is also a hero with the ultimate pathfinding skill. "
Xu Lai swallowed quietly, Damn, whoever wants to go to that kind of ghost place, anyway, it is impossible for him to learn the ultimate wayfinding technique.
I don't know what the purpose of that guy Talosi is to learn the ultimate pathfinding technique. Does he hope that after his death, he can create a new world in the territory of the undead?
Complaints are complaints, the knowledge taught by the instructor still needs to be memorized. Even if he does nothing, he will still be able to learn the pathfinding technique after three days. Heroes are so incredible.
But if he does nothing, can he know the advantages of each race?
If he didn't ask questions, the instructor would take the initiative to tell him, are there any dangers in the Land of the Dead?
Obviously, these are impossible.
Therefore, as an outsider who does not know enough about this world, he should seize every opportunity to learn all knowledge related to this world.
The different space of the military academy has a time flow rate that is ten times that of the main world, which is perfect for Xu Lai to absorb the necessary knowledge here.
It took Xu Lai several days just to distinguish and try out various terrains.
Not only are the advantageous terrains of several major camps simulated here, but there are also countless rare terrains and special terrains.
For example, the legendary Magic Plains and the Cursed Land.
And the terrain is not only affected by the feet, there are magic clouds floating in the sky, there are clear ponds nearby, as well as the land of fire, the desolate land, etc.
These special terrains all have special effects.
For example, on the terrain of Magic Cloud, all air magic will be upgraded to the effect of having the ultimate breath magic. The clear pond corresponds to the water element, and the land of fire and desolate land correspond to the fire and earth elements.
Magic Plains and Cursed Land are even more special. The former can make all magic effects reach the top level, including Xu Lai's golden box.
The latter can only take effect at level one, which is the lowest level spell.
In addition, there are forbidden magic places, silent forests, and common hilly places.
Hilly land is very common, but also very special. The degree of impact of this kind of terrain on the troops is determined based on the hills.
For example, Pingfeng Mountain on the Pingfeng Grassland is a huge mountain group that is thousands of meters high and stretches for dozens of kilometers, just like Pingfeng. The topographic influence here is as high as 75%.
There is no concept of altitude in this world. Usually anything below a hilltop of about 500 meters will not have any impact on the troops.
Walking near a height of 500 meters to 1,000 meters will be affected by almost 25%, above 1,000 meters, and below 3,000 meters, it will be 50%.
Moreover, even if you have the ultimate pathfinding technique, which can restrain the impact of this kind of terrain, there is still no way for you to fly directly over the mountain.
In a different space, I personally simulated and tried different levels of pathfinding. The mountain road remained the same, and nothing changed.
The function of pathfinding is not to change the terrain, but to eliminate the impact of the terrain on people.
For example, climbing a mountain is usually difficult because climbing is an upward process that requires work to be done against gravity and an additional force in the opposite direction to gravity.
So why fat people are more tired when climbing mountains than thin people is because fat people weigh more and need more strength.
The fundamental function of pathfinding is to use some kind of power that Xu Lai doesn't know about to eliminate this influence.
Therefore, after possessing the corresponding level of pathfinding, Xu Lai can ignore this force in the opposite direction, allowing himself to walk on level ground even when climbing.
The same principle applies to other terrains. Pathfinding eliminates the adverse effects of these terrains rather than changing the terrain.
It is still climbing a mountain. You can walk on flat ground, but you are not really walking on flat ground, but on a slope that is constantly going up or down.
If you are not careful or slip when you walk, you will still roll down the hill instead of getting up and continuing walking like you would on flat ground.
On a slope, you still need to try to maintain a 90-degree relationship with the ground, rather than 90 degrees on the slope, otherwise you will still fall.
Because pathfinding only allows you to ignore the impact, rather than making the impact disappear.
The alien space contains almost all terrains on the entire continent. Except for the water surface, which Xu Lai was unable to try, other terrains have basically been tried.
At night in a different space, there is a game every day, but it is not the face-to-face confrontation Xu Lai imagined.
In fact, from beginning to end, Xu Lai never met anyone other than the instructor in this different space.
The so-called competition started from the simplest way of identifying terrain on the first day of school, to the real path-finding half a month later.
The rules of the competition are very simple. Xu Lai needs to cross a complex terrain at the same speed with another opponent who is learning pathfinding. The first one to reach the finish line wins.
If there are not enough opponents, the average speed of the same level will be used as the winning condition.
Xu Lai battled wits and courage with an unknown opponent for 15 days.
After every game, the instructor would tell Xu Lai nothing.
The instructor was very talkative and didn't talk about anything except the necessary knowledge of pathfinding.
But if you want to ask, as long as it has something to do with pathfinding, he will tell you without reservation.
The other party could even take Xu Lai to experience different terrains and influences, and let him experience different levels of pathfinding. Xu Lai asked him one question after another.
Xu Lai participated in the competition knowing nothing, which forced him to work hard every game.
As time goes by, the game maps become larger and larger, and the terrain becomes more and more complex.
Xu Lai must choose the optimal solution among various terrains to reach the end point.
The so-called optimal solution is definitely not choosing the one with the least impact among many terrains.
Instead, we must comprehensively consider the impact of terrain, because although some terrains have a greater impact, they are closer to the end point.
Therefore, when Xu Lai is traveling, he must have enough ability to estimate and judge the size and distance of the terrain.
Today was halfway through the process, and Xu Lai discovered that the difficulty of today's game had increased again.
The distance from the end becomes longer, the terrain becomes more and more complex, and often several terrains are entangled with each other.
Xu Lai could no longer calculate the best path before running like before. He had to run first and then make a judgment.
Moreover, his judgment must become more decisive and accurate.
A wrong judgment will delay him a lot of time, so he must be fast and accurate.
And this must be based on rich experience and a thorough understanding of various terrains.
Xu Lai was glad that he had not wasted a single day in the past month or so. By looking at the approximate speed and time required of various terrains, he could basically judge the terrain at a glance.
In the last few days of training, the difficulty of the competition escalated again.
Not only does the terrain become more and more complex, but it also changes suddenly during Xu Lai's movement, which requires Xu Lai's strong ability to make instant decisions.
And this is exactly what Xu Lai lacks the most.
He is used to analyzing the pros and cons in advance before making a decision, and then making a choice that is most beneficial to the present or the future.
But now the changing terrain forced Xu Lai to give up thinking and rely on experience to make the most instinctive judgment.
On the final day of competition, there were a lot of signs on the map.
Each sign represents a first-level pathfinding technique. In other words, while he is moving towards the end, he also has to consider the impact of pathfinding on the current terrain and the future terrain.
In short, even if Xu Lai was a genius like Einstein, he would not be able to calculate the best path in an instant.
But the brain doesn't have this ability, but his body instinct does.
After 90 days of study and training, Xu Lai's senses have never been so sensitive as they are today.
He moved forward almost subconsciously, constantly changing directions and terrain.
Even once, the sign of the first-level pathfinding technique appeared in front of him, and he walked towards another lava area.
Because Xu Lai knew that his current intermediate pathfinding skills could already allow him to ignore the interference of the snow.
One more level of pathfinding will not help him in any way now. Instead, he will have to run at least an extra hundred meters in the desert without any improvement in speed.
When he finally pulled down the finish flag again, the instructor finally made a digression with Xu Lai after this competition.
"Congratulations, you have defeated your opponent on 87 of the 90 days of competition, and you are currently ranked first in total points."
"87 days, that is to say, there are still 3 days left to fail?"
The instructor said: "You are just unlucky. Among the more than 70 members who learned pathfinding in the same period, you won 19 more games than the second place.
You are the well-deserved first, and you are also the first winner of the intermediate pathfinding technique in July. "
"Intermediate pathfinding skills?" Xu Lai smiled slightly, this was an unexpected surprise.
The instructor nodded and said, "Congratulations."
Then the instructor waved his hand, and Xu Lai had left from the different space.
At the same time, a golden light fell on Xu Lai.
[Intermediate Pathfinding]: Reduce the impact of terrain on the marching speed of troops by 50%.
Additional effects of activating pathfinding: 1. Tracking. Within 24 hours, you can clearly identify the owner of the footprints based on the footprints left on the road. (Only effective in terrain where footprints can be left)
I have enabled an illustration function, and in Chapter 135 "Building a Fortress" I inserted a picture of a fortress I drew.
