Chapter 156 Loss and Gain
After the elite group was awakened by Xiang Ningxuan with a grenade, they hurried to the attack site of the snake man before they could all assemble. Along the way, they encountered more than 150 snake manes who were circumventing the road.
Neither side was prepared and could only fight face to face with the bayonet. The elite group suffered a disadvantage in this kind of chaos.
These snake men have the ability to fight against senior heroes who are not weaker than ten levels. Even Tuhart can only hide in the house and fight with them with the help of the terrain.
The advantage of the elite group is that the profession is reasonable, long-range attack, melee combat, defense, treatment, and all professions are complete. If the number of people is the same, the elite group can match the A Snake Man.
But the chaos of war is not what the elite group is good at. Therefore, as soon as they meet, the elite group loses three people. The leading team is everyone injured and almost collapsed.
At the critical moment, relying on the meteorite technique of awakening from dreams and Ge Zhengzhe's fusion attack, the front line was forcibly isolated, giving the elite team time to complete the team.
Facing the elite group with a strict formation, there was nothing wrong with the snake man with a single army. The javelin was intercepted by various spells, and the charge was slowed down by Chu Jiangyue's ice, and was cursed by Chen Lin's necromancer and aging, slowed down, and could not rush up at all.
The situation improved slightly after the Snake Man leader sent the priests over, but the magic power of the five or six priests could not withstand the fierce attacks of the elite group. It was gone in less than two minutes. The Snake Man army could only escape in a panic.
———
Taking advantage of the time when the elite group gathered, Xiang Ningxuan nodded and encouraged after listening to the battle reported by Chu Jiangyue.
Next is to take stock of the losses and gains of the battle.
In terms of losses, twenty people were wiped out by a patrol team, and two other patrol teams were crippled, and nearly twenty people were killed.
More than 100 corpses have been found in three residential buildings where snake people were penetrated by snake people, and some of them have been swallowed by greedy snake people. There is no time to count the specific data. The estimated death toll is nearly 200.
In the end, three people were killed in the elite group, and ten people were killed in the third and fourth brigades.
The total death toll was about 250. This was the biggest loss since the establishment of the Fourth Detachment. The total number of survivors in the directly-controlled streets of Jiangcheng District was only more than 15,000, and 1.7% of the total population was lost that night, which was extremely heavy.
In the end of the world, population is the most important thing. As for the damage to houses and roads, Xiang Ningxuan was too lazy to pay attention to it.
This night attack of the Snake Man gave Xiang Ningxuan a loud slap in the face, who was developing smoothly and a little inflated. It is important to expand rapidly and save more people.
However, if blind expansion leads to unstable foundations and causes heavy losses to the people under your rule, it is also irresponsible. It seems that after the Battle of Jiangcheng, the dangerous monster forces in the area they control must be cleaned up.
If Tuhat had not discovered the enemy situation in time and issued a warning, maybe Xiang Ningxuan would have to wait until the snake man assembled and launched an attack.
If Shen Rui had not appeared in time and led away the main force of the Snake Man, the casualties would have been even more severe.
If Xiang Ningxuan hadn't been stationed in the streets directly under the direct administration with the main force of the elite group, and the third and fourth brigades alone might not have beaten these snake men. Even if they could win, they would have suffered extremely heavy casualties.
If any of the above does not occur, the Jiangcheng District directly under the jurisdiction of the streets may suffer unbearable heavy losses, and the consequences will be unimaginable and may even shake Xiang Ningxuan's status in Jiangcheng District.
In general, the result is now a blessing in disgrace.
In terms of harvest, Xiang Ningxuan alone held the Snake Man leader and more than 100 Snake Man in this battle, and killed dozens of them. The Hearthstone level was directly upgraded to level 10, which was equivalent to the standard combat level 16 (5+1-10).
According to current experience, all hero professions have a hurdle for every five levels. After crossing the hurdle of level 15 of combat, Xiang Ningxuan felt as if he had broken a layer of film, and a brand new realm was ahead. If he wanted to give this realm a name, it would be "Epic Hero"!
Before, Xiang Ningxuan felt that he was already a top presence among the excellent heroes. For example, the skill bar and the equipment bar, even Zhou Zijin, who is also an excellent Hearthstone hero, did not have it. Through observation of the soul plane, Xiang Ningxuan also found that his soul power was far superior to other excellent heroes.
He had already felt that he was bound by some indescribable rules, as if he was too tall and touched the ceiling. Of course, he could continue to grow taller, but he could only wait, just like a snake man entering the room, and he could not use his hands and feet, which was very uncomfortable.
Now, the improvement of the level has finally made Xiang Ningxuan break through the ceiling.
Just like only if you break through the combat level 5, you have the opportunity to advance to an excellent hero. To advance to an epic hero, you must break through the combat level 15. This is a necessary but insufficient condition. Excellent heroes must exceed level 5, but many people are now more than ten, but they are not advanced to an excellent one. Epic heroes must also exceed level 15, but those who exceed level 15 may not be able to advance to an epic hero.
After the upgrade, Xiang Ningxuan obtained 1 non-combat magic crystal and 1 health point. To be honest, such a little strengthening is simply insignificant to Xiang Ningxuan now. But what surprised Xiang Ningxuan was that he actually obtained an ogre magician silver treasure chest. He never got the treasure chest when he was level 0 and 15.
Why is it not important to give gifts to treasure chests now? Anyway, the system gives them to them, so just collect them. What is important is what is in the treasure chest.
Turn on!
The "Wow" treasure chest opened, and a flash of light flashed. In addition to 1 golden blue card, 1 white card, and several arcane dust, one item jumped out: a small backpack, passive, and two more hands at the beginning.
Finally, there is an arena ticket. Xiang Ningxuan has been so busy that he hasn't played in the arena for a long time, and he doesn't know what he has become now.
The golden blue card is:
Twilight Dragon (Golden Elegant Minifiction)
Cost: 4
Attack: 4
Life: 1
Battle Cry: Every time you have a hand, you will get +1 health.
Sure enough, dragon cards above the level of excellence are all golden cards, because the dragon's strength is stronger than creatures of the same level, except for pseudo-dragons like the Elf Dragon.
In fact, the giant is also very powerful, but the giants in Hearthstone are all epic cards and have not turned into golden epics. Only the Sea Giant Tides have advanced to golden epics because they absorbed the power of Putridas.
Good news also came from the elite group. This night attack created three excellent heroes: the meteorite mage woke up from dreams, the ice mage Zhuang Mingjian and the Hearthstone hunter Li Wuhen.
Shen Rui's level has also been improved. In addition to attack, life and energy increase, he can summon an additional hero of the Star Spirit: Immortal Tardalin.
Tardalin is also a white-painted four-legged robot, slightly smaller than Shen Rui's consul's armor, but more than three meters tall. He is a long-range attacker, carrying two gravity shattering cannons on his shoulders. Each attack can cause gravity waves, pulling enemy units near the target to the target.
Tardalin's combat power is no less than that of the 99A main battle tank, and it is still permanently summoned. It only takes resources and time to be resurrected after death. Kardalis, who just died in battle, is in resurrection. (To be continued)
