The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

After a long journey of five days, Xu Lai finally led his team and found a fairly suitable settlement.

Different from before leaving from the foot of Pingfeng Mountain, Xu Lai experienced more than a dozen battles, large and small, in these three days, and finally reached such a deserted place.

By leaving the last settled town, Xu Lai could ensure that there would be absolutely no large-scale settlements within a radius of 50 kilometers.

Of course, he also recorded the location of a small town on the map. The straight-line distance is about 50-80 kilometers.

There was no way, there were no landmarks or even rulers, it all relied on Xu Zi's own feeling, the error was just that big.

It was like passing through the pass and beheading enemies all the way. Although Xu Lai's long-range troops were very fierce, there were still many monsters along the way that he did not dare to provoke.

Some were too fast. For example, he encountered a group of wild monsters called nomads, which were somewhat similar to rangers, but were not equipped with long-range weapons and were only level 3 warriors.

However, even so, Xu Lai was far away from them, because the speed of these things was similar to that of horse archers, only slower than the charging rangers.

Xu Lai was reluctant to let his precious warrior get even the slightest bit damaged. In the worst case, he would record them in the record and come back to take care of them later. There was no rush for this moment.

Therefore, there are no less than 2 or 30 groups of wild monsters recorded by Xu Lai along the way. Most of them are wild monsters with long-range attack capabilities, such as stone-throwing dwarves, iron ball-throwing goblins, and flying monsters. A little devil who can throw forks and more.

Or maybe they were like nomads, with high-speed assault capabilities. Xu Lai even recorded the location of a group of cavalry.

Even if Xu Lai could beat these guys, he would still be reluctant to kill them. These are naturally friendly wild monsters with the blessing of diplomacy. When he gets stronger, he might be able to recruit them directly.

To be on the safe side, Xu Lai only bullied monsters that moved slowly, had no long-range abilities, had no disgusting characteristics, and were not high-level monsters during the journey.

Anyway, as long as he predicts that there may be risks, he will not do anything for the time being. He will wait until he sets up camp.

Of course, although I only bullied a dozen groups of wild monsters along the way, it was not without gains.

Along the way, 5 wooden treasure boxes and 1 black iron treasure box were collected. This slightly more advanced treasure box was contributed by a group of high-level earth elements.

This group of guys has high defense, but their movement speed is slower than that of zombies. Apart from taking a little more effort to fight, they really don't pose any threat at all.

In addition, there is 1 treasure, 3 resource piles, a road sign, and a witch's hut that Xu Lai did not dare to approach.

The resource pile was named by Xu Lai himself. This thing really makes people speechless. A pile of gold coins plus some wood, stones and iron ingots were piled naked on the grass.

Two of them were okay and were guarded by wild monsters, but one didn't even have a guard and was buried in the grass.

The weeds were very dense. If Xu Lai hadn't had scouts constantly scouting outside, he would have missed it. Unfortunately, he only had one scout, and he often had to take care of his physical strength.

3 resource piles bring Xu Lai 1,500 gold coins, 10 units of wood, 15 units of stone and 5 units of iron ingots.

Five days later, he also took 250 gold coins from the gold box, but after more than a dozen battles, Xu Lai spent a full 500 gold just to upgrade his archers, and up to 400 gold to upgrade two horse archers.

However, these are nothing. With Xu Lai's preference, the level 4 witch who has been following him for a long time finally advanced and spent 500 gold coins to become his only level 5 witch.

That's right, after more than a dozen battles, Xu Lai has learned how to control experience.

You only need to subdivide the command at the right time and give the head to the object that needs to be upgraded. At least half of the monster's experience can be allocated to the object to be upgraded.

The remaining half must be allocated to the commander Xu Lai, the witches who have released auxiliary spells, and even the scouts, rogues, etc. who only defend and have not even attacked.

In short, the experience of any monster will not be monopolized, but will be distributed to all combatants according to a certain proportion.

Xu Lai didn't know the specific ratio. He only knew that the killer would get the bigger share, and the attacker with the highest damage would be allocated more.

Xu Lai's own level increased to level 8, and his mental attributes increased by 1 point. He chose intermediate archery among intermediate archery and intermediate resistance.

Su Ya was at a disadvantage. She only commanded farmers and militiamen. These soldiers were still controlled by Xu Lai and had little experience.

Even if Xu Lai deliberately lets Su Ya fight a few monsters at close range when the situation is relatively safe, it will still be difficult for her to level up.

However, Su Ya had no time to spare. She either helped Xu Lai manage logistics and handle food in a timely manner, or she used all available time to practice archery, shields, riding, etc.

When Su Ya's long-range weapon reaches level 3, she can basically guarantee a hit rate of about 90% within a range of 7 or 80 meters, which is no less than an average level 3 shooter.

It was at this time that her level began to rise rapidly. By the time Xu Lai found a suitable place to stay, Su Ya's level had been raised to level 6. If she leveled up to level 1, she could gain full attribute blessings again.

In addition to the characteristics of the collector being upgraded to the collector master, all resource collection speed and output are increased by 10%, an additional marksman characteristic is added, which increases the long-range attack capability of itself and the marksmen under its command by 5%.

5% damage is not much, but it can be combined with Xu Lai's archery specialization. Xu Lai is already looking forward to the surprise expressions of a bunch of militia shooters in the future.

The land Xu Lai selected not only meets the needs of being uninhabited, but also has several other benefits.

First of all, there is a small lake here. There is a water wheel on the south side of the lake, watering a natural farmhouse on the shore.

This lake is not big, much larger than the ponds in the countryside, almost the size of a small reservoir, and there is a group of swans wandering on the lake.

Behind the small lake, heading northeast, there is a small stone mountain. At the foot of the stone mountain, there is a windmill and a ready-made quarry.

To the northwest of the small lake, which is the direction from which Xu Lai and the others came, there are also many wild monster resources, which he has marked on the map.

Of course, the most important thing is the southwest side of the small lake, where there is a large area of ​​manticore territory. This thing is a 6th-level wild monster underground. There are also some poisonous manticores mixed in, and maybe there are even 8th-level manticores hidden in it. king.

Anyway, Xu Lai didn't dare to go near that area. The manticore was a dungeon creature and had a natural hostile relationship with him. If he got too close, he would launch an active attack.

There are probably hundreds of manticores in this group, and there is no way that Xu Lai's troops will survive if they really want to attack them.

However, over such a long period of time, he has accumulated a lot of experience with wild monsters. Although these things are hostile to him, as long as they are not close to their warning range, these guys will not attack at all.

The most important thing is that these guys are guarding a huge underground passage.
