Chapter 173: Eliminate the Ogres and Open the Epic Treasure Chest

Guarding the epic treasure chest is a huge monster tribe.

There are so many of them, at least four or five hundred.

The appearance of Mo Yu and Salt immediately attracted the attention of these monsters.

“Woooooo… wooooo…”

Dozens of monsters rushed out one after another, making strange noises and killing towards this side.

This is a humanoid creature over two meters tall, with gray-green skin and wearing only a pair of animal skin shorts, looking like a savage.

Ogres. Detect has returned the names of these creatures.

It turns out that they were so excited when they saw the food.

However, the ogre obviously did not figure out who was the hunter and who was the prey.

Mo Yu just raised his hand, and densely packed defense towers appeared in the open space, forming a fan shape that half-enclosed the ogre tribe.

The War Gate has been upgraded many times, and the summoning distance has been greatly extended. Mo Yu can easily summon a defense tower on an open space two hundred meters away.

"Put your hands up, you are surrounded by me!"

The ogres naturally ignored Mo Yu's words. They just paused slightly and then continued to charge forward without hesitation.

puff!puff!puff!
The sound of spears piercing flesh was endless.

The Victory Gun Tower kills a small Karami with one shot, just like being called out in the Book of Life and Death, and every shot kills instantly.

No matter whether it was a second-level ogre or a third-level ogre, there was no difference under the flying spears.

The victory gun tower has an attack speed of three shots per second, firing like crazy.

The ogres only rushed forward less than fifty meters before most of them fell down, and then with a crash, they dispersed and fled back.

But none of them could escape, and the Victory Gun Tower nailed them to the ground one by one.

The whole process took less than half a minute, and the ogre squad was wiped out efficiently and effectively.

All Mo Yu consumed were more than fifty rounds of ammunition for the Victory Gun Turret.

I got more than forty kills, I feel so good.

The Victory Gun Tower is now only 6,000 kills away from being promoted to the fourth level, making it a priority target for monster hunting.

There was a commotion among the ogre tribe; the powerful firepower of the defense tower made them feel frightened.

Just one defense tower can easily wipe out a team. There are still so many left. Can we rush up?
Besides, they were just two humans. It was not worth it to suffer any harm for such a small amount of food.

Mo Yu didn't have time to wait for them to make a decision. Under his manipulation, the four main summoning towers began to summon creatures in large numbers and surrounded the entire ogre tribe.

On the left is the Earth-Armored Ant Nest Tower. More than two days of elite forces have been stored in the ant chamber. A large number of Rock-Armored Giant Ants and Rock-Armored Army Ants are encircling the ogre tribe from behind.

On the other side is the Flame Wolf, and on the front is a large group of skeleton soldiers holding various weapons.

There are hidden iron corpses underground, ready to take action.

The ogre tribe was dumbfounded. Originally, they were hesitating whether it was worth the price to eat these two people.

Little did they know that in a moment of distraction they would be faced with the issue of the tribe's survival.

"Break out of the encirclement!"

In the center of the tribe, the two-headed ogre leader made a prompt decision and chose to break out and escape.

It’s not that they don’t have confidence in their strength, but the tribe’s population is too small and they can’t afford the consumption.

The opponent is very powerful, and even if they can defeat him, the ogres of the tribe will suffer heavy casualties.

Such a war has no meaning at all.

He guessed that the other party's purpose must be the epic treasure chest. Since he wanted it, there was no harm in giving it away.

With this thought in mind, the ogre tribe decisively rushed towards the encirclement at the rear which had not yet been completely closed.

Mo Yu did not expect that the ogre tribe would be so decisive. He no longer hesitated and controlled the defense tower to launch a fierce attack.

Originally, he thought that the ogre would at least be brave enough to fight, so he deliberately hid half of the defense tower and did not summon it.

Who would have thought that a few summoning towers would simply force the opponent to flee.

With no other choice, he had to summon all the defense towers and start a full-scale siege on the ogre tribe.

Swish!Swish!
Three golden bone shield walls appeared, instantly connecting into a wall of more than 50 meters, blocking the ogre tribe's retreat route.

Under the interference of the golden bone shield wall, the ogre team was divided into two.

Some of them panicked and ran to the sides, while others waved the huge bone sticks in their hands to try to break through the shield wall.

But with such a delay, there is no chance of escape.

Attacks from many defense towers such as the Victory Gun Tower and the Explosive Arrow Tower have followed one after another, falling into the dense group of ogres that were blocked by the Golden Bone Shield Wall, instantly causing huge casualties.

On both sides, the fastest rock-armored army ants and fire wolves had already arrived, risking their lives to block the ogres' escape.

The summoned creatures showed no regard for their lives, and the hammers of several fourth-level ogre warriors were simply unable to tear open the encirclement formation.

The rock-armored giant ants, fire demon wolves and skeleton army behind them rushed over one after another, and the thickness of the encirclement became thicker at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The ogre leader was very anxious. The skull staff in his hand flashed with light, and he cast several large auxiliary spells in succession.

There is the Stoneskin technique that increases defense, and the Bloodlust technique that increases attack...

Under its organization, a small team of elite ogres began to break out towards the southwest.

The fire wolves here have strong attack power but weak defense, and can hardly withstand the heavy hammers of the elite ogre warriors.

With the sudden change, a small hole was torn in the encirclement formation.

Mo Yu reacted quickly and quickly put up the golden bone shield wall like a patch.

Seeing this, the ogre leader flashed the skeleton staff in his hand and tried to cast a spell again.

But this time, Mo Yu will not give it another chance.

The caress of the sixth-level sunflower tower is coming.

“Woooo ...

“Woooo ...

The two heads of the ogre leader sang at the same time, and the spell he was about to cast was abruptly interrupted.

It hurts, it hurts too much!
Two heads mean double the joy and double the pain.

The ogre leader squatted down in an ungraceful manner and couldn't stand up.

Moreover, its call began to change and become softer.

Mental castration, success.

"Break...break the formation~ and keep rushing out...~." The ogre leader endured the severe pain and shouted with all his might.

However, the majestic and powerful voice just now disappeared, and was replaced by a sissy voice.

The battlefield was chaotic and many times the soldiers only heard the voices but did not see the people.

Now that the voice has changed, they can no longer recognize it.

The group of ogres that originally seemed to be in an orderly manner and charging out together suddenly became disorganized.

Some continued to rush out according to the order, some were smart and fled in other directions, and some stayed beside the ogre leader, at a loss.

Under such disagreement, with the influx of a large number of skeleton soldiers, the ogre formation was completely torn apart.

The battlefield has reached a point where it is beyond Mo Yu's control.

The summoned creatures are now completely mixed up with the ogres, and the situation is unclear. Even if his orders are given, it is difficult for the summoned creatures to react quickly.

The ogre was restrained, and the summoned creatures were also restrained.

This is also why summoned creatures can only be used as cannon fodder, lacking legion command and the ability to respond to emergencies on the battlefield.

It's okay to fight a defensive battle, but in this kind of melee, there will inevitably be omissions in the execution of combat decisions.

Besides, Mo Yu’s battlefield command ability has not yet been developed.

In this chaotic battlefield, there were too many things to focus on. From observing battlefield information to identifying and issuing orders, it was difficult for him to make a decision in an instant.

Therefore, Mo Yu simply gave up commanding the summoned creatures.

His eyes were fixed on the ogre leader. This was a big fish and he had to catch it.

Ever since the first attack from the Sunflower Tower, the Ogre leader has been the focus of special attention.

He never cast a complete spell again, or to be more exaggerated, he could never utter a fluent sentence again.

A loyal younger brother tried to help him up, but anyone who touched him would be covered.

The scene of screaming is horrifying.

This resulted in the ogre leader being unable to catch up with the vanguard team in the first place.

That elite ogre squad broke through the blockade of the Flame Wolves, but their leader was left behind.

They slipped away without looking back.

Apparently, not every ogre is loyal.

It would be fine if they didn't find him on the battlefield, but it was obviously impossible that they all escaped and didn't find their leader falling into the enemy camp.

"Would you like me to go and exercise?" Salt looked at Mo Yu inquiringly.

"Okay." Mo Yu nodded.

The ogre tribe is not far from the territory, so it would be a good idea to clean it up.

After getting consent, Salt stretched his muscles, rode on Zosi, quickly took off into the air, and chased after the ogre army that had left the battlefield.

He was accompanied by a dozen dragon eagles, and was able to defeat the enemy by air-to-ground attacks, so he was not afraid of not being able to deal with the problem.

Mo Yu calmed down, mobilized the ambushed iron zombies to block the hole, and continued to surround and kill the ogres on the battlefield.

In fact, the fight between summoned creatures and ogres did not cause heavy casualties on both sides.

The real killing machine is the defense tower.

They are efficient and accurate, taking the lives of ogres at a rapid speed.

As long as any ogres gather on the battlefield and form small groups, they will be hit hard by the Explosive Arrow Towers and the Earth Spear Towers.

There are summoned creatures on the field, so accidental injuries are not a big problem. As long as you can kill a large number of ogres, you will not lose.

Under such circumstances, the ogres fought each other and it was difficult for them to form any decent resistance.

As the ogre leader was captured and killed completely, the ogres no longer had any will to fight.

On the battlefield, ogres began to surrender.

Unfortunately, Mo Yu doesn't like this type of soldier, and its eating habits are also incompatible with those in the territory.

Therefore, Mo Yu chose to kill them all.

In fact, being sold as a slave is an option, but it is not worth it.

There is still a whole month before the next slave camp certificate is opened, which is too long to raise.

Faced with the crisis of death, these ogre captives had no choice but to rise up in resistance.

But the situation was already decided, their strength was insignificant and they were quickly put out.

At this point, the entire battlefield gradually calmed down.

There were corpses everywhere, and only the smell of blood and fire remained, slowly dissipating in the air.

Mo Yu didn't even look at the spoils that fell on the ground, and quickly walked to the middle of the ogre tribe camp.

The dark gold epic treasure chest that exudes aristocratic aura is waiting eagerly for his visit.

[Hint: You have found a mysterious epic treasure chest. Do you want to open it? ]

An epic treasure chest. This is the first time for a young lady to ride in a bridal sedan.

Mo Yu smiled excitedly and touched the treasure chest.

The progress bar appeared and it took a full ten minutes, which was surprisingly long.

During this time, Mo Yu must keep his hand in contact with the treasure chest.

Once you release it, the progress bar will return to zero and start over again.

With defense towers guarding all around, Mo Yu naturally didn't have to worry about safety issues. He sat cross-legged and waited calmly.

Ten minutes seemed as long as a century.

When Mo Yu felt that the flowers he had been waiting for were about to wither, the treasure chest was finally opened!

[Hint: You opened the mysterious epic treasure chest and received the following rewards: skill enhancement gems, golden maze construction blueprints, scorpion tail warrior camp construction blueprints, a bag of chili tree seeds, and primary flame gems *3. ]

[Hint: You can disassemble the epic treasure chest and obtain 20 purple gold ore! ]

Looking at the extra spoils in the backpack, a knowing smile appeared on Mo Yu's face.

He shook his sore hands, sat on the ground, and checked the properties of several items.

[Skill Enhancement Gem]: A one-time consumable item that can enhance skills and improve skill effects. Can only be used on skills that have not been upgraded.

[Golden Maze Construction Blueprint]: You can build an epic defensive building, the Golden Maze, to resist enemy attacks. It requires 20000 gold coins, 10000 mana, 100 squares of building space, 10 workers, and a construction time of 3 days.

[Construction blueprint of Scorpion Tail Warrior Camp]: You can build a Scorpion Tail Warrior Camp and recruit the fourth-tier rare scorpion tail warriors. It requires 5000 units of stone materials, 3000 units of gold coins, 4 building spaces, 2 workers, and a construction time of 28 hours.

^[One bag of pepper tree seeds]: Can be used to plant peppers, a total of 1000 seeds.

[Primary Flame Gem]: A gem containing abundant fire elements. It can be inlaid on equipment to impart special flame effects.

There are five items in total, but only one can be truly called an epic item.

However, Mo Yu was already very satisfied.

Skill enhancement gems, there are many skills at hand that can be used, the only pity is that the War Gate cannot be used.

The Scorpion Tail Warrior Camp, a rare fourth-level troop nest, can be used to upgrade the Earth Armor Ant Nest Tower to the fifth level and further expand the ant room.

The remaining peppers can be used in the territory.

In the days when condiments were scarce, Mo Yu looked at the bag of chili seeds and began to simulate the taste of spiciness in his mind.

It really deserves a bite of chili.

The final flame gem can be used to make fine equipment.

But for Mo Yu, it has another function, which is to upgrade the defense tower.

After the defense tower reaches level 4, in addition to the killing conditions, new conditions will appear.

Generally, for rare and common levels, only the corresponding attribute magic crystals are needed to upgrade, and starting from the rare level, special item conditions will appear.

This flame gem is one of the necessary conditions for the Fury Totem Tower to be promoted to the fifth level.

Mo Yu collected the spoils, then organized the Flame Wolves to start cleaning up the ogres' corpses.

Among the ogres killed this time, there were many fourth-level ogres. He wanted to see whether these fourth-level ogres would give birth to magic crystals.

He himself was picking up the fallen spoils one by one on the ground.

The ogres didn't drop much loot, just a dozen troop summoning items, a dozen heavyweight bone clubs, some troop strengthening items, and a small amount of gold coins.

In addition, there are tents they use for camping.

Mo Yu accepted all the tents and put them all into his backpack, collecting a total of 139 tents.

While clearing the camp, he saw the center of the ogre tribe.

A large number of halfling corpses were piled up here.

Mo Yu seemed to realize something. He took out the map and saw that, sure enough, the halfling's nest was nearby.

The halfling that spawned this week unfortunately became food for the ogre.

No wonder when I first arrived, these ogres seemed to be holding some kind of event.

It turned out that there was a good harvest early in the morning.
