Chapter 44 Stress Test
"No way, again? How many waves today?"
Xiao Jian finally swiped the "Holy Scripture" and immediately took out his pistol and stood up after finding that it was not what he needed.
However...
The fog rose and fell, but no monsters appeared.
A few minutes later, Xiao Jian lowered his head, leaned close to Da Huang and whispered: "You have been suspicious since just now... Is there a monster?"
"... Meow."
Da Huang seemed a little confused.
"You don't know? Or do you mean you are not sure?"
"Meow."
Of the two options, Da Huang chose the latter.
In other words, it was not very clear whether there were monsters outside the fog.
Xiao Jian remembered the sudden attack of [Corpse Red Crow] before. At that time, the monster flew very high and flew out of Da Huang's perception range before launching a sudden attack.
"Just assume it is there."
Although Da Huang himself was not sure, Xiao Jian believed in it very much, so he took action immediately.
First, Xiao Jian took out a blank resource card.
In the previous battle, many iron spikes on the iron "breakwater" were broken, and the scrap metal was scattered all over the ground.
Xiao Jian first put the scrap metal into the blank resource card, and then "made" an iron cage the size of a toilet around his sofa.
-
115
Although the cage he "made" was not so straight, Xiao Jian made a half-man-high door for himself and plugged it with a wrist-thick bolt.
In this way, he didn't have to push the cage down every time to get out.
Then Xiao Jian took out another blank resource card, put the damaged "breakwater" into the card, and made a new one.
-
1633
In this way, all the fortifications were repaired.
In addition to the newly opened servants, Xiao Jian now has a total of 20 pea shooters and 2 pea ice shooters.
The damage per round reached an unprecedented 22 points!
In addition, Xiao Jian still had two trump cards in his hand. No matter what monster appeared in the thick fog, Xiao Jian was confident that he could kill it.
However, when the monsters in the fog finally showed their true colors, Xiao Jian was shocked.
It was not because they were too strong, but because... they were too weak:
╭───Monster Card───╮
Decay Skeleton
Attack 1|Defense 0|HP 2
Mobility 3
Features:
[Skeleton] Ranged attack dodge rate +15%.
╰─────────╯
Xiao Jian confirmed the attributes on the card again and again, and then he realized how weak this skeleton was - it was not even a 1-star monster.
"Puff puff puff..."

1-

2!

……
As the pea shooters opened fire, a large amount of damage value emerged from the top of the skeleton's head.
Occasionally, a critical hit would even kill the skeleton instantly!
Of course, in addition to critical hits, the [skeleton] characteristics of the skeletons will also allow them to occasionally dodge a pea bullet, but they are too weak, and even if they dodge one or two pea bullets, they cannot get close to the "breakwater".
"Puff puff puff..."
The pea shooters don't care whether the enemy is strong or weak. No matter how strong they are, they will not be afraid, and no matter how weak they are, they will not despise them. They just do their own output steadily.
Xiao Jian did not make a move, and Da Huang certainly did not attack.
One person and one cat stood far away in the middle of the plants, watching batches of skeletons being beaten and disintegrated...
But then again, although these skeletons are weak, their number is too large.
Xiao Jian squinted his eyes and looked into the mist, and the endless shadows seemed endless! !
"Hua La... Hu La La..."
The skeletons were constantly beaten into bone fragments, and then turned into mist and dissipated under the scorching sun.
Gradually, Xiao Jian found the problem.
These skeletons did not fall!
It has been almost 20 minutes since the start of the battle, and at least hundreds of skeletons have died!
However, there was not even a gift box for such a large number of deaths.
"..."
Xiao Jian gradually frowned.
These attacks were completely different from the usual "spawning" rules... Xiao Jian even read the meaning of "testing" from these attacks.
Xiao Jian glanced at Da Huang and found that it was still holding its tail upright, staring at the outside of the fog.
Obviously, the thing that made it feel threatened was not these fragile skeletons in front of it.
In other words, the thing that was testing me was still outside the fog, right?
Ordinary attacks didn't work, and the strong attack with the BOSS didn't work either, so... now it's time to consume it, right?
Use these garbage skeletons that don't produce anything to consume my bullets?
But the problem is that the Pea Shooter has endless bullets!
"Heh."
Xiao Jian sneered and simply ignored them. He opened the cage door and went out, picked up the stone slab "Holy Book" and went back.
Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I might as well swipe the "Holy Book" first, and it would be best if I could swipe out a few boxes of bullets.
Time passed by like this, minute by minute.
Two hours later, the skeletons' attacks still hadn't stopped.
During the two-hour attack, Xiao Jian discovered one thing - it wasn't that the skeletons didn't drop anything at all, it was just that the drop rate was extremely low.
During this period, there were a few times when gift boxes actually dropped, but the problem was that these gift boxes couldn't open any cards!
Instead, I was given two ham sausages, a bottle of Coke, and a pack of instant noodles...still in the flavor of braised beef!
Yes, I am afraid that thousands of skeletons have been killed in these two hours, but their loss is so pitiful...
...Three gift boxes in two hours, tsk tsk.
However, Xiao Jian was very happy. He took out a piece of ham and threw it into the blackened "electric" kettle, and then poured water to cook.
Xiao Jian had eaten sausage rice before, where he would slice the sausage and throw it directly into the rice while cooking.
When the rice is cooked, every grain of rice has absorbed the fragrance of the sausage, and the rice grains are shiny and oily, and it is delicious.
When the rice was cooked, the aroma of rice mixed with the aroma of ham made Xiao Jian not enough after eating a whole pot of rice.
When Xiao Jian finished his meal, the invading skeletons still hadn't stopped.
Countless skeletons lined up to walk out of the thick fog and were crushed in a short time.
Fortunately, these monsters will turn into mist and disappear after death, otherwise the bone fragments of these skeletons would not be piled up one or two meters high.
Xiao Jian looked at the endless stream of skeletons and couldn't help but frown.
This... is so abnormal!
Generally speaking, zombie attacks will only last for a short period of time, and it will be almost over when all the zombies are dead.
However, these skeletons completely broke Xiao Jian's previous experience, as if... someone was doing a stress test on his courtyard.
Seeing that it was almost dark and the continuous attacks had not stopped, Xiao Jian packed up the cooking utensils, stamped out the bonfire, and finally got back into the iron cage.
"Dahuang, keep watch! If you have any questions, call me."
"Meow!"
Da Huangtou responded without replying.
Ever since the Skeleton Attack began, it had been staring in a direction beyond the mist.
Xiao Jian followed its gaze and looked in that direction... Naturally, he couldn't see anything.
"Forget it, sleep."
Xiao Jian covered himself with a pile of clothes and gradually fell asleep amidst the sound of peas being fired and the skeletons falling apart.
