Then, a huge tornado column was seen at the edge of the woods less than a hundred meters away from the two light circles. Lightning flashed inside, and a large group of thunder elements were wandering around.
"So fat!"
This is the rhythm of not opening for three years and eating for three years after opening. Lin Xiao said it was very good.
However, the joy on his face lasted less than ten seconds, and he saw that on the other side of the island, there was also a three-masted sailing ship like his own approaching the island.
"Damn, this won't do!"
He quickly ordered the sailing ship to turn and rush straight to the sailing ship.
The sailing ship also discovered him and also changed direction and rushed over. The two warships approached quickly, and soon they could see the densely packed centaurs and dwarves on the opposite deck, and behind them stood a large number of elves holding bows. Hundreds of elves riding flying horses flew from behind the sailing ship.
The hero of the fortress camp should be a second-level hero based on the strength of the troops, and he is an indigenous hero.
Both sides discovered the island at the same time, so there was nothing to say, just do it first, and neither he nor the hero of the fortress had the intention of dividing it equally.
Before the two warships approached, the flying soldiers of both sides took off at the same time, but his griffin archers were suspended above the warships, while the opponent's Pegasus Knights rushed straight over.
However, when he was still some distance away from the warships, he stopped again and waited for his own warships to approach below. Obviously, this rampart hero had more brains than the undead hero in the undead treasure.
Soon the two warships were getting closer and closer, until
"bang!"
accompanied by a heavy collision sound, the two warships collided with each other. The subordinates of both sides, who had been prepared, threw out the hooks equipped on the ship to hook the two warships, and then the stone men on Lin Xiao's ship, a small number of iron men and elite spearmen crossed the side of the ship and killed them, and they were in a melee with the centaurs and dwarves on the opposite side. The
long-range archers on the ships of both sides opened their bows at the same time, and hundreds of arrows were launched into the air at the same time. The dense sound of breaking through the air made people's scalps numb.
In the air, one hundred griffin archers and one hundred Pegasus knights have already fought each other. Pegasus knights are elves riding Pegasus, fourth-level troops, similar to light cavalry, without long-range means, and are best at launching surprise attacks with super-fast speed and aerial mobility. They are the nemesis of long-range troops on the battlefield.
Griffin archers are third-level troops, and normally they cannot beat Pegasus knights, but the griffin archers in Lin Xiao's hands are all elite troops, which are no less than any fourth-level troops. In addition, this troop consists of griffins and archers. Griffins can fight in close combat, and archers on their backs can assist in shooting. In addition, Lin Xiao's extremely high strategic attribute bonus and Weiya's talent bonus, as well as the most critical treasure attached bloodsucking effect, the griffin archers actually have the upper hand in the fight between the two sides.
Unknowingly, Lin Xiao's strength at this time has become so strong that he can easily overwhelm other senior second-level heroes just after being promoted to level two.
At this time, his main force of one hundred fourth-level swordsmen and the hero Weiya beside him have not yet participated in the battle.
As soon as the two sides engaged in battle, the elf hero sensed something was wrong and quickly ordered a retreat.
But it was too late. Both sides fired hooks to hook the boats together, and it was not easy to untie them.
Before he could order the main swordsmen to join the battle, the elf hero raised the white flag and shouted loudly:
"Powerful Templar hero, I am willing to surrender and pay enough ransom according to the rules!"
Lin Xiao waved his hand to signal his subordinates to cease fire, and responded loudly:
"I am willing to accept your surrender, please pay a treasure and half of the gold coins!"
This ransom standard seems harsh, but it is actually normal. After all, this elf hero is not his opponent at all, and even if he resists to the end, he cannot pose a big threat to him.
The ransom for the hero's defeat is calculated based on the comparison of the strength of both sides.
If the elf hero is stronger, victory requires a considerable price, so only a small price needs to be paid.
If the gap in strength between the two sides is greater, the ransom paid will naturally be higher.
Of course, the specific standard also depends on the camps of both sides. The Templar Barrier belongs to the Order camp and has a good relationship, so the standard will be lower. If it is the Barbarian and Swamp camps, the ransom will be relatively higher.
If it is an evil camp like the Undead Demon, once defeated, there is a high probability that they will be blackmailed to the point of bankruptcy, and some will even kill the other party directly.
This elf hero is a poor guy. His treasure is a dead wood vine that increases a little strength, but he only has more than 40,000 gold coins, which is even poorer than him.
Fortunately, there are a lot of resources on this island, so he didn't care. As soon as the elf hero left, he couldn't wait to go to the island.
First, he quickly circled the island and plundered all the wild monsters and resource points, including the lightning element wind column, from which he harvested two hundred air element soldiers and two air element barracks fragments.
This is useless, and can only be sold later or decomposed as nutrients.
Finally, he came to the light column on the top of the mountain that could be seen from a distance with great expectations. When he saw clearly that it was a harpy's treasure house, Lin Xiao was immediately deflated. The
treasure house is good, but the problem is that the harpy is a bit tasteless.
But having a treasure house is not bad, and it can't be disliked.
Two hours later, the light column on the island disappeared. Lin Xiao came out of the Harpy's treasure house with an expressionless face. Soon, the warship restarted and left the island.
The following days began to wander aimlessly as before. Fortunately, the density of islands in the following sea area was slightly higher. Generally, you would encounter an island or coral reef every two to four days, and occasionally you would encounter some monsters that refreshed directly on the sea.
For example, a pile of wreckage similar to that of a large ship after a shipwreck. After opening it, you will encounter a large number of undead monsters. After killing them, you can collect many resources, including rare resources such as mercury and gems.
Days passed one by one, and Lin Xiao gradually became bored from the novelty and fun at the beginning. No matter how spectacular the sea is, you will get tired of looking at it day after day.
The most anticipated thing every day is to find islands on the sea, or to meet other heroes.
Generally, when there is no conflict of interest, heroes will not fight when they meet in the wild, even if they are in the enemy camp, they will not fight as soon as they say so. Especially when they rarely meet other heroes on the sea, they will usually go up and chat with them.
Time is spent in this kind of boredom and slowly accumulating growth.
When Lin Xiao was wandering aimlessly on the sea, the major camps on the mainland were also surging, especially the major player rankings were changing dramatically.
Among them, the hero level list began to appear in large numbers after three months. The hero comprehensive strength ranking list has changed even more. In the fifth month, a large number of familiar names appeared on the list, suppressing the previous top-ranked players.
Wu Zhonglin, Dongfang Piaoxue, Li Xiushen, Shen Yuexin, Arya, Bart, Carl,
and naturally Lin Xiao himself.
When the time came to the sixth month, that is, the second season, the list was updated.
Among them, the hero level list was cancelled, leaving only the hero comprehensive strength ranking list, which was further subdivided into strategic attribute rankings, treasure rankings, strongest arms rankings, etc., and the scoring and comprehensive combat power system was opened.
It is worth mentioning that after the update, players can choose to hide their names.
So, one day after the list was updated, Lin Xiao saw that the top 100 players were all anonymous, which was speechless.
However, before the update, he saw the comprehensive strength and combat power scores of the top ten players, and the combat power scores
of the top 100 players. The first place was not Wu Zhonglin. This peerless Tianjiao who was ranked on the Tianjiao sub-list when he was just in high school was only ranked fourth this time, and he was not in the top three.
Among them, the first place was Carl. This elite from the Immortal Authority Super Academy came in his true body. His strategic attribute score and treasure score were not much different from the top ten. His military force was in the middle of the top ten, but his personal strength score ranked first, which opened up a gap with the second place. In the end, he ranked first with a comprehensive strength of 1147 points of combat power, surpassing all other players.
Except for him, all the top ten players had more than 1,000 points of combat power, including Lin Xiao.
Yes, Lin Xiao ranked eighth on the combat power list with the second-ranked military force and the superior treasure score, with a comprehensive combat power of 1029 points.
Looking down the list, he saw his aunt's name in the 15th place, with a comprehensive combat power of 957 points.
He basically scanned the following rankings directly, and only paused when he saw familiar names. Li Xiushen, Dongfang Piaoxue and other students from Huiyao all achieved good results. Seven of the dozen people from Huiyao entered the top 100, which was quite powerful.
When everyone on the list became anonymous, the list was not interesting, especially the rankings on the list changed from time to time, and it was soon unclear what the specific rankings were.
One day, it was a rare sunny day at sea with clear skies.
A large sailing ship was quietly sailing on the calm sea. Lin Xiao was lying on the deck alone in the sun, missing his girlfriend's majestic embrace. It was speechless that so many men on such a large warship were all male.
He was closing his eyes and thinking about the agreement with his girlfriend, when he suddenly heard a faint shout in the wind.
A few seconds later, he got up and came to the bow to look, and saw an extremely large warship breaking through the waves and slowly approaching in the distance.
His three-masted sailing ship was sixty meters long, which was considered large, but it was tiny compared to the giant ship. Not far from the giant ship, there were two equally small warships entangled with each other, seemingly fighting.
His eyes stayed on the two warring warships for a while, and then fell on the giant ship. On this unknown giant ship, he felt the breath of treasure.
This was a treasure that looked like a giant ship, but it was actually the same treasure as the Undead Ruins, and it was a treasure that was limited to heroes below level 2.
"It's really timely!"
Having already reaped the dividends of the previous treasure, Lin Xiao had no interest in ordinary wild monster resources. During this journey on the sea, he had thought more than once whether he should go back to the Sacred Pass to open one of the two treasures in the Ogre Fortress or Treasure Bay.
If it wasn't too troublesome to go back after drifting so far, he would have really turned around.
Now, a treasure flew directly in front of him, and it would be a shame not to grab it.
