Final Lord

Chapter 185 Re-entering the Nest!

Magic Guards.

Their bodies were translucent, as if they were formed from flowing starlight and flesh, with shimmering elemental veins faintly visible beneath their skin. These veins, like liquid rivers of light, alternated in brightness and darkness with the fluctuations of magic, giving their bodies an ethereal sense of fluidity.

Their special skills look simple, but they are actually very powerful.

Its special feature lies in the array of magical runes.

Each unit killed automatically spawns a "Rune Beacon" within a 50-meter radius. Each beacon increases the attack of the Archmage Guard by 5%, stacking up to 5 times; if in the Enchanted Maze or a magical building...

Within the building's range, it restores an additional 2% of maximum health per second.

The Rune Beacon generated by this special ability provides a bonus to all Archmage units.

It provides attack power to the Spellguards, defense to the Spellshield Guards, and mana restoration to the caster. It's versatile and adaptable to various situations.

The Archmage race has an epic class called the Magic Runemaster. When he is present, he can remove the maximum beacon buff for all Archmages. Combined with the Archmage Guards who mass-produce beacons for ranged attacks, this can result in extremely exaggerated attribute values.

Unfortunately, this powerful artificial unit was abandoned by the Faling race after it was built.

There was nothing they could do; the landlord's family was too wealthy and looked down on these inferior children.

The master's family doesn't value him, but Wang Bufu treats him like a treasure.

He happily collected the magic guards into the fire and said to the cloud giant, "General Ed, I have accomplished my mission and taken care of one."

"Hoo hoo hoo." Ed nodded in satisfaction and said, "You conquered a chaotic cave and the troops were completely unharmed. You truly are worthy of being the juniors I value. Come, let me take you back to rest."

Seeing General Ed's outstretched hand, Wang Bufu quickly said, "No, General, we don't want to rest now. It's not easy for you to bring us up here, we need to hurry up and take down another Chaos Nest."

"Huh? Don't your troops need rest?" General Ed asked, somewhat surprised. Even if the troops were unharmed, wouldn't the fatigue of melee units, the mana of spellcasters, and the ammunition of ranged units need to be replenished?
“Young man, I understand your eagerness, but you need to be moderate. You’re likely to demoralize the troops like this,” General Ed kindly reminded him.

"It's alright, they're not tired." Wang Bufu turned to his soldiers and asked, "Are you tired?"

"Not tired!" Blind Cat was the first to raise his staff and shout. The other units all agreed loudly. Only a few harpies flew around a couple of times the whole way, and they were all carried by vines, so it would be a lie to say they were tired.

"See? They're not tired." Wang Bufu shrugged.

General Ed carefully examined Wang Bufu's troops and was surprised to find that they didn't seem to be in any reluctance.

Is this young man really that good at leading troops? He took over the Chaotic Cave with almost no effort? I'm getting old. The Ice Barrier Guild Leader has been relegated to the dustbin of history by today's young people.

Seeing that Wang Bufu was confident, General Ed stopped trying to persuade him and obediently escorted Wang Bufu and his group to another chaotic cave.

[A-level Chaos Nest - Frozen Soul Bird Nest Found. Visit?]

[Warning: The Frozen Soul Bird's Nest is extremely dangerous!]

"access!"

A cold wind blew by, and Wang Bufu entered the instance.

The wind, carrying ice shards, swept across the wasteland, freezing the air into transparent blades that slashed at every inch of Wang Bufu's exposed skin.

As far as the eye could see, there was only solidified white—the snowfield was like an endlessly stretching white silk, with layers of ice that had not melted for thousands of years piled up in the folds, gleaming with a cold, eerie blue light.

Right!
This is the true Chaotic Cave! From the environment to the monsters, everything exudes malice towards the challengers.

"Everyone, report on your efforts to keep warm."

"Master, there's no problem!"

"Reporting to the lord, the winter clothing is performing well, and there are no issues with the cavemen's comfort." Excellent! Wang Bufu nodded in satisfaction.

During this period, the territory's down jackets have been updated three times, and now everyone is using self-heating semi-metallic jackets with added red copper.

As long as the ambient temperature drops, the winter clothing will generate heat by consuming its own energy.

A winter coat can be worn for fourteen days before its durability runs out, which is quite effective.

"Let's go! Caveman Group 3 will attempt to burrow underground to investigate whether there are any ambushes beneath the ice."

"Received!" Pheasant responded, leading a group of deadly assassins straight underground.

"Reporting to the lord, the situation underground is good, no enemy troops have been found, but the temperature underground is low, and the soldiers can probably only hold out for about 5 minutes."

"Very good. Groups 1, 2, and 3 will take turns burrowing underground and conducting reconnaissance in a cycle, with one group every two minutes."

Blind Cat: "Yes!"

Hillbilly: "Roger!"

Blind Chicken: "Understood!"

Wang Bufu continued, "The three harpies can become invisible and ascend into the air for reconnaissance. Their altitude must not exceed ten meters. Remember to leave a clone behind so they can return immediately if danger arises."

"Received!" Helan immediately took off with the Banshee, spreading out like a spider web.

Less than ten seconds later, Wang Bufu received a report from Helan.

"Warning! Enemy forces spotted at 7 o'clock, 2 kilometers away, numbering around 40, Frozen Soul Birds. The enemy has spotted us and is moving towards us at full speed."

This is it! This is finally it! This is the mad dog monster from the Chaotic Cave!

Invisible units can be discovered instantly, and once discovered, they will fight to the death.

Wang Bufu remained calm and immediately issued the order: "All troops, prepare for battle! Execute Plan No. 1!"

The venomous assassin immediately emerged from the ground, his mouth filled with venomous projectiles, which he aimed at the air. Meanwhile, Wang Bufu, protected by the harpy, quickly retreated to the rear.

"Ready to launch, 3, 2, 1!"

The moment Wang Bufu uttered the word, the cavemen simultaneously spewed venom. The dense venom formed a vast net in the air, trapping all the Frozen Soul Birds within!

The Venomous Assassin has an attack power of 50 points, while the Frozen Soul Bird's defense and health combined only have 35 points. This means that the Venomous Assassin can kill the Frozen Soul Bird in one hit!
With a volley of fire from the Venomous Assassins, 40 Frozen Soul Birds were reduced to icy dust in mid-air!

The Frozen Soul Bird's Ice Soul Explosion was triggered instantly. A terrifying cloud of ice dust with a radius of one kilometer surged forth.

However, these ice dusts only exploded futilely on the ice surface, without harming any of Wang Bufu's units.

The moment the shot was fired, the caveman activated his burrowing ability, dodging the dangerous attack.

"Warning! Enemy forces spotted at 12 o'clock, 2.6 kilometers away, approximately 60 in number, Frozen Soul Birds. The enemy has spotted us and is moving towards us at full speed!"

The first wave of battle has just ended, and the second wave of enemies is already here! This is the typical fighting rhythm in the Chaotic Cave.

Wang Bufu smiled slightly and immediately ordered, "Hera, the Dance of Passion!"

Hera burst forth from the harpies, leaping into the air in a war dance. Magnificent blue feathers fluttered down, bestowing powerful buffs upon all the harpies!
[Dance of the Frenzy: Movement speed +3, duration of all special abilities' bonus speed boosts extended by 10 seconds.]
