Chapter 97 All the Work in Vain
In the next few days, Yang Yi has been cooperating with the fishmen and the people of Guns and Roses to hunt the wild boar people.
The people in Guns and Roses are very clever at luring the quilboars. The people sent out to lure the quilboars always bring about ten quilboars every time. If they accidentally attract too many quilboars, they will take the quilboars away. A place to set traps.
Because they act so carefully, their efficiency in hunting wild boars is somewhat reduced, but their safety is guaranteed.
As adventurers, the people in Guns and Roses were among the people who came into contact with the fishmen earlier. Over the past few days, they gradually became one with the fishmen.
Now every time after killing a group of quilboars, the Guns and Roses people and the murlocs always sit around and eat barbecue together. A few Guns and Roses people even take this opportunity to learn the aquatic language from the murlocs.
Yang Yi sat aside and ate a piece of barbecue slowly, but he was thinking about another thing in his mind.
As time passed and the nearby tribes of quilboar became more wary, the booby trap began to lose its effectiveness.
The people in Guns and Roses hunted the quilboars just to get their big tusks, so they could miss every one.
In addition to completing the task of eliminating the wild boar people, Yang Yi also considered contacting Ratchet Village with the threat of the wild boar people. Although trapping and killing the wild boars in this way can relieve the pressure on Ratchet Village for a period of time, if it cannot cause a fatal blow to the nearby wild boar tribe, it means that this will treat the symptoms but not the root cause.
"We have to find a way to eradicate the nearby wild boar tribe. There are wild boar tribes living near Ratchet Village that may invade at any time. This is a big disadvantage."
Yang Yi thought about wiping out the wild boar tribe, but with the current strength of Ratchet Village, he was unable to break into the thorn jungle where the wild boars lived, let alone lead his troops directly into the wild boar crypts.
"A Ratchet Bay is enough for the murlocs of Ratchet Village to develop for a long time. Even if the wild boars occupy this territory for a while, they will not be used. We just need to find a way to prevent the wild boars from going south to invade Ratchet Village." Yang Yi Think so.
In the past eight days, more than 80 steel-maned wild boars have been led to the trap. None of these wild boars ran away, and all of them were killed by the murlocs of Ratchet Village.
Among these killed wild boars, there were 46 level 2 steel-bristle quilboars. Hunting another wave of quilboars will probably complete the task of destroying 50 level 2 steel-bristle quilboars.
During these eight days, Yang Yi often stayed with the Guns and Roses people. While preparing traps and waiting for the arrival of the wild boar people, he heard a lot of strange things among the adventurers from the Guns and Roses people's chats. There are even some secrets from the world of Azeroth.
People from Guns and Roses often hunted wild boar people, so they often talked about wild boar people when they had nothing to do. Yang Yi summarized a lot of useful information from their chats in the past few days.
For example, the wild boars in the Barrens are actually divided into two clans: the steel-maned wild boar and the thornback wild boar, and these two major wild boar clans have always been in a state of hostility to each other.
All the wild boar people living near Thorn Ridge are the Wild Boars of the Steelmane Clan, but the various tribes within the Steelmane Clan are not united. These quilboar tribes often fight against each other, and even engage in civil wars over food and territory.
It is precisely because of this that no other tribe is willing to accept the refugees of the Wild Boar. The refugees of the Wild Boar can only wander around and rely on robbing food to satisfy their hunger.
"Come quickly, wild boar man. Helping my lord complete the mission will be considered a great merit." Yang Yi looked forward to it, hoping that the wild boar man would appear soon so that he could complete the mission.
"What reward should I receive after completing the mission? First aid manual or enchanter's notes?" Yang Yi has been thinking about choosing mission rewards for a long time in the past few days.
First aid can be used to make powerful medical supplies from fabrics of various qualities, and can also make some detoxification potions. The cost of these first-aid items is much lower than that of alchemical potions, they can be mass-produced, and they are one of the necessary supplies for war.
The Enchanter is a high-end life profession like the Alchemist. It also requires a legal profession to become an Enchanter. This is also a good thing for the Murloc Village.
There are a total of four choices for mission rewards. The remaining two choices are the skill books of the Paladin and the Warlock. These two were ruled out by Yang Yi from the beginning.
Yang Yi was worried about choosing the mission reward. At this moment, a reminder suddenly sounded in his head.
"The construction of the village's Level 2 Murloc Tidecaller Altar is completed. Complete the task of constructing the Village's Level 2 Murloc Tidecaller Altar within 10 days, and the reward will be: a lucky draw opportunity."
Yang Yi was stunned after hearing this.
"What!? Did you complete the task after the Tidecaller Altar was built? Is there still a hidden construction task?"
Thinking of this, Yang Yi couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart: "I should have told you earlier, isn't this a trap? The thirty or so murlocs who have come to the village in the past eight days have been exposed to wind and sun, and now all their hard work has been in vain."
The last mission to eliminate the wild boars was completed before the village's level 2 murloc livestock farm was built, so Yang Yi did not find out that there were hidden construction tasks at the time. This time he finally knew about it.
"Why."
Yang Yi sighed. The lottery system was never explained. He had to explore it step by step every time.
"Forget it, I know now, and the reward items available this time are not to my lord's liking. If they are gone, they will be gone." Yang Yi could only comfort himself.
Although the task of killing the steel-brisled boars was over, Yang Yi and the fighting murlocs in the village were still waiting for the Guns and Roses to attract the boars.
The murlocs in the Ratchet Village lacked systematic battlefield training and combat experience, so the murlocs' battles often became scattered and single-handed.
During this period, the murlocs had to fight twice a day on average. After more than ten times of training, the murlocs gradually became more orderly when attacking, and they were already good at ambush.
More importantly, the murlocs were indigenous people, and killing boars could gain upgrade experience, which could more quickly improve their own levels and the levels of combat professions.
"Have you heard that the murlocs sank the transport ship of the Northern Castle, and now the Theramore soldiers are going crazy." The people of Guns and Roses took advantage of their free time to chat in the Earth language again.
"This happened a few days ago. Your information is too outdated. The ships are carrying weapons and food. It is said that there are also artillery. Now the Northern Castle has sent troops to the lair of the blackfin fishmen."
"Those blackfin fishmen are good at making trouble. The last time they ambushed Rumeng, they were also the ones who did it. Look at how sensible the fishmen in the Thorntooth Village are. They even helped kill the wild boars."
"Yes, they are all fishmen, but why are there such big differences in their fishmen?"
"Don't let your guard down. These thorntooth fishmen may suddenly get their heads wrong and pounce on us and bite us."
"Brother Alan, don't scare me. I'm about to become sworn brothers with that grayfin fishman."
"Why don't you find a female fishman and become a married couple?"
...
More than half an hour later, the two people sent by Guns and Roses to lure the wild boars appeared in sight. They ran quickly towards the trap, followed by a large group of wild boars.
Yang Yi used the Eagle Eye Technique to see that there were nearly two hundred wild boars.
"Look over there, judging from the dust raised behind them, there are at least more than a hundred wild boars following them."
"What are the Dai brothers doing? They brought so many wild boars to our side."
The people of Guns and Roses have rich experience in the wild. They don't need skills such as Eagle Eye Technique. They can judge the number of wild boars in advance by observing the dust raised.
A few minutes later, the two men called the Dai brothers ran back to the trap.
"Brothers, run quickly, the wild boars are going crazy this time."
"The wind is tight! Too many wild boars have been killed here, and the position of the trap should be changed."
The Dai brothers shouted after running to the ambush point, and then the two of them rushed over without stopping.
"You two little bastards, even if you want to change places, why do you bring so many wild boars with you?"
"You have been hiding here for the past few days, and the fishmen have been doing everything. It's time to move your hands and feet. We two brothers are worried that you have gained weight."
"Fuck, don't let me catch you two."
"Stop talking, let's run."
...
"Brother Murloc, there are too many wild boars this time, everyone should hide first." Alan of the Mountain shouted in the common language in the direction of the fishmen's ambush, and then he ran away.
Yang Yi had already understood from the Earth Star language of the Guns and Roses people. Under his command, the fishmen immediately ran away. Running away and group fighting are the hidden specialties of the fishmen.
The method used by the Guns and Roses people to hunt wild boars cannot be used in one place all the time. If the fishmen didn't kill all the wild boars that were attracted every time, this trap would have to be moved to a new place every two or three days. .
