Chapter 151 Disaster and Plague
[Star Dragon Outpost Update Announcement]

[Update 1: The Stables have been built and are now open for use. Undead can use their points to adopt a Calamity Horse, or they can tame one themselves. Please remember that Calamity Horses need to be fed and trained regularly. Preparing enough Star Grass fodder may save you a lot of trouble. Star Grass fodder can be purchased in the store.]

[Update 2: Open the Leon City dungeon. Defeat the dungeon boss Lord Leon to successfully open the player's main city construction progress display; main city construction can unlock more functions and open more tasks]

There was already a long queue at the stable station.

In the past, there were undead who were able to get the Calamity Horse by relying on their own strength, or by forming a team to force it, but catching it does not mean that they can ride it. The Calamity Horse is also a Calamity Monster, it is just that the Star Grass makes it calmer.

Most people can only sigh and drool when facing the disaster warhorse.

Redeeming points is the only way at present.

There are many ways to obtain points in the Star Dragon Outpost camp nowadays. For example, farming in the Shadow of Doom area is the most stable way to obtain points. You can get some Heart of Doom fragments by killing monsters, or you can sell food to exchange for points.

Someone on the forum has compiled a "Star Dragon Sentry Food Planting Code", which contains several pages of guides on what kind of mutant plants to plant in what environment, as well as which food will have a higher price for exchanging points in the near future.

No player will complain about the game being full of details. When there is too much of a certain material, the selling price will be lowered, and when a certain material is scarce, the price will be increased. The undead people enjoy this feeling.

Of course, most people enjoy the highest price when they sell their own materials.

In addition to this, you can accept faction missions. Faction missions are rarely issued, but each time they will give a large number of points as rewards. For example, in this siege of Leon City, all participants received points as rewards.

The undead who originally planned to use their points to redeem a disaster warhorse, after receiving a large number of rewards, have been considering exchanging saddles and horseshoes for the warhorse, and some are even planning to add some decorations to the warhorse.

Star Dragon earns Star Dragon flowers, and wants to take them home as soon as they are divided.

The reason for the queue is that the number of disaster horses at the stable station is too small and the demand cannot meet the supply.

Lind has already sent out a team specifically to tame disaster horses, and has also sent people to harvest star grass. He even asked a team of pharmacists led by Miss Micko to study whether there is a more portable way besides turning star grass into hay.

Around the "mount system", Linde has deployed a large number of NPCs, the number of which far exceeds any previous update.

But judging by the current speed, most people will probably have to wait for a long time before they can ride a war horse.

Some people do not have enough points. This is mainly because the Star Dragon Outpost was added in the later period, and both the points and the faction level are not enough.

The group of undead people who just joined the city of Leon can’t even exchange the path potion for the two-headed man.

A rich man offered the price of a small Fit in exchange for a Calamity Horse.

Offline transactions have not been carried out. Some people are afraid of being cheated, while others are because the Disaster Horse is too scarce. It is also an excellent means of transportation. They don’t even have time to keep it for themselves, so how can they give it to others?

Many quests require traveling to several places. If you have a Calamity Horse, you can save at least three-quarters of the travel time, and the gaming experience will be great.

Fighting on horseback will also increase your strength.

"Fuck, so handsome, so handsome, let me ride you!"

"Do you want to ride my brother, or do you want to ride my horse?"

"Hey, look at what you said. As long as you let me ride, I can ride you."

The tack shop next to the Stables Inn also attracted undead who were currently unable to obtain Calamity Horses. The variety of tack was dizzying.

Being beautiful and handsome were their most basic requirements. It happened that every item in the saddlery shop opened by Lind had been reviewed by him to ensure the most basic aesthetic. Later, Lind found that Bud's aesthetic design was really great. In addition to the pursuit of golden color, both the pattern and appearance were excellent. Since his intervention would only affect the work, he just gave a rough data and left it alone.

At the same time, with the capture of Leon City, the ore and grain trading channels between the Star Dragon Outpost and the Star Mine were officially opened.

Lind could see that Xingzi Mine did not want to interfere with any forces. And he did not like making enemies everywhere.

As long as the other party can continuously provide him with the minerals he needs, Lind doesn't mind having a neutral force within his territory.

The premise is that the other party remains neutral.

A dozen disaster horses pulled the carts out and when they returned, they were loaded with ore.

Linde picked up a piece of ore at random. He had always suspected that the miner leader Genan and his miners were looking for something in the mine, otherwise they would not be mining so frantically.

"How many?"

Lind was slightly surprised when he heard the soldier's report on the transaction.

"A small bag of grain and a cart of ore?"

It takes at least three to five people to dig out a cart of ore, and a small bag of food can only allow three to five people to have a barely full meal at most.

It's totally a thankless task.

"It seems they are still holding their ground and asking for a lower price. The price offered by Seaport Village before was lower."

“People from Seaport Village should be allowed to go.”

Linde didn't take it too seriously. It didn't matter whether it was one more handful of food or one less handful of food. The other party might have made a profit, but he... made too much.

Looking at the cartloads of ore being pulled back, Lind couldn't help but wonder, "What are they mining for?"

Mine but don't take the ore, just take it like sand.

Linde didn't feel sorry for the food because his warehouse was almost full. Now that he had taken over Leon Territory, all of Leon Territory, including the Lizardman area and Persimmon Town, belonged to him. There were too many disaster shadow areas, so many that even more than two hundred undead people could not farm them all.

A large amount of grain was ground into flour, and some was brewed into wine. Not to mention that the NPCs on the production line in Prey Town were left with nothing to eat, the news from Old Cherry was that no one had stolen the grain for a long time.

If you have enough to eat, there is no need to steal and risk being beaten half to death.

I have no shortage of food, so why are miners like Ge Nan working hard to mine? Don’t they have a shortage of ore?

With the supply of ore, the blacksmiths in Prey Town worked at full capacity to produce.

After step-by-step construction, finished products such as mechanisms, traps, armor, weapons and props were delivered.

The NPC population has been expanded, and the most obvious improvement is in production. After full production, it can meet the needs of more than 200 undead people.

The undead did not pause for long in the face of the difficulties in the city of Leon.

The first undead squad officially set off.

The Calamity Horse pulled the cart, carrying the traps and props to the city of Leon.

Unless it is a large-scale mission, many undead people prefer to play in small teams by themselves. Even though they know that the BOSS in the Leon City dungeon is difficult to deal with, some people are willing to "suffer" by themselves.

Of course, the main fighting style this time is not to fight alone, but to carry out in a planned team, that is, to divide into teams and use traps, props and magic to harass the BOSS for a long time, so that it cannot escape the battle and recover health. After the first team is wiped out, the second team will follow.

The entire city of Leon was their battlefield.

The Suffering Squad arrived at the city of Leon. The gate was broken and traces of the fire from the previous few days still remained. The ashes of the undead were no longer visible on the ground. Only occasionally could one see torn clothes in some places and bloodstains on the wall.

There were many traces of fighting on the dark ground, such as broken swords, arrows, shields and even some body tissues that had not been cleaned up yet.

The flames of war had long since ceased, but the suffocating feeling left to those who came here only increased. Walking on the post-war ruins was far more uncomfortable than standing on the battlefield.

As we passed through several stone houses with their roofs burned through, some people went in to explore.

“It’s a bit poor here.”

"I found a knife, but it was of very poor quality."

They were not the original members of Star Dragon Outpost, but came from the Harbor Village where resources were the scarcest. Normally, they would be very happy if they could get a weapon of similar quality, at least it would be better than a pitchfork. But since they joined Star Dragon Outpost, everything has changed.

You don’t even have to buy weapons, armor, etc. Just find a few good brothers and talk some nice things to them, and you can put together a similar set.

If you are lucky, you will have a good brother to help you farm.

They had lived in the city and had never farmed in their entire lives, but at Xinglong Post they fell in love with the feeling of farming.

Farm, the shadow of disaster appears, tower defense, and then harvest food.

Since joining Star Dragon Outpost, there has never been a shortage of resources.

They stopped when they reached the inner city limits.

"Set the trap first!"

Trigger traps are the most common.

Among them was a type of ground spike trap. Those who purchased the trap could not understand how the ground spikes could extend out from a palm-thick iron plate.

The right of interpretation belongs to Magic.

They have tested it and found it to be very effective, able to penetrate a person's foot easily.

He laid the traps like laying floor tiles, then set up the automatically triggered crossbows at a high place, and most importantly, the oil bottles and Molotov cocktails.

Everything is ready, and an undead rushes into the inner city to attract the attention of BOSS Leon.

"I'm coming!"

Hearing the sound, the undead people immediately shrank back.

The wind howled.

The figure with red eyes caught up almost at the speed of flying.

Leon's condition at this time was completely different from the previous few days. His body was covered with dark pus, and his body was ugly and twisted. Occasionally, there were lumps under the exposed skin, and it seemed that as long as it was punctured, a steady stream of black pus would flow out.

Its body was so big that it didn't look like a human, and there were not many pieces of armor left, which hung on its body like scattered pendants.

His body seemed to be always howling. The human part of his upper body could not be seen, only fluid wrapped around it, as if he had turned into a giant snake with a twisted body from the waist up, which made people's hair stand on end.

The face was still visible, extending forward like a canine.

The fangs were bared, and the sharp teeth were like shark teeth, eerie and terrifying, and the huge mouth seemed able to easily stuff a human head into it.

His eyes are bloodshot, making people feel uncomfortable when looking at them.

He has completely transformed into the disaster of the abyss and is no longer human.

Grabbing the undead who was running in front of him, he dragged him and swung him to the ground again and again. The undead had no ability to resist and could only bear the consequences of being hit hard.

The sound of blood splattering on the ground was very harsh.

When Leon let go of his hand, the captured undead finally exploded into ashes with a smile.

I feel liberated.

After Lord Leon entered the ambush range, the undead attacked at the same time.

The trap was activated, and the overwhelming attack submerged Leon's figure, aiming to catch the enemy by surprise. However, the gap in strength between the two sides was too great, making their trap attack just like scraping.

"Have you been poisoned?" Undead people don't speak, but that doesn't mean they can't communicate. There are many ways to communicate internally.

"Up!"

All the traps were coated with a poison from the perfumer Miss Brittany. The poison was not strong, but very long-lasting. As long as they were sure that the poison was effective, they would dare to spend a lot of time to wear down the opponent.

Blood began to fall, and the undead held their breath, their hearts leaping with joy.

The blood loss continued and lasted for about a minute before it lost its effect.

The effect of the trap prepared in advance ends here.

The undead people did not show their heads, but they still could not escape the fate of being discovered, and could only fight to the death.

The second team, the third team... will be resurrected quickly and rush over after death.

This cycle repeated itself over and over again, and even formed a special cyclical rhythm for slaughtering Lord Leon.

Relying on quantity, long time, hard work and perseverance.

Finally... the undead people won.

It took three days, during which time Leon was disconnected twice, which caused him to recover to full health. Otherwise, victory would have come faster.

But before they could rejoice...

"Fuck, it's over!"

"Plague, I seem to be debuffed by the Plague of Calamity!"
