LRAB Chapter 10 Creeper
Chapter 10 Creeper
"Remember, if you encounter a spider, be sure to catch it alive and bring it to me."
It was completely dark when Su He sat by the campfire and gave orders to Zombie Number One.
A level 3 zombie is not only a good source of labor, but also an excellent executor of orders.
There are some things that no longer require his personal involvement; he only needs to clearly state the conditions.
Zombie One will do his best to carry out his orders.
Su He assigned four newly contracted zombies to Zombie No. 1: two were level 1 zombies contracted from the monster spawning grounds, and the other two were level 2 zombies that spawned in the wild.
They were all equipped with stone weapons, and if one was destroyed, another could be used.
The main reason we didn't equip this team with skeletons was to avoid accidental injury.
After watching Number One leave with his team, Su He and his own team began searching the surrounding area.
His team was much more impressive than the previous one, consisting of six monsters: three level-two zombies and two level-two skeletons.
He also has a level 2 spider as his mount.
"Set off!"
He picked up a torch and, along with the monsters around him, became a mobile light source in the darkness.
Bubbles were rising from the monsters' bodies; this was the effect of Su Hexin obtaining the skill book.
It can grant your servants a power-enhancing effect.
Despite the time constraints, the results were still quite impressive.
Even a level one zombie, when paired with a stone sword, can deal significantly more damage than usual.
Even with the monsters protecting him, Su He, sitting on the spider, dared not relax his guard in the slightest.
After the area level was increased, a monster called a Creeper can now spawn around him.
Players familiar with this monster know that Creepers love to sneak up behind you and unleash a spectacular explosion.
It will not only kill you, but also destroy your buildings and crates, which will really make your blood pressure soar.
Su He had no protective equipment. If he were to be hit by an explosion at close range while completely unprepared, he might be able to catch the next batch of transmigrators reincarnating if he was fast enough.
It seemed as if to confirm his own worries.
As the zombie at the front of the group passed a tree, a hissing sound suddenly rang out.
Even the moment it heard the sound, the zombie was given the order to move away.
A white special effect flashed, and a large crater appeared where the zombie had once stood.
The zombie had vanished, leaving behind only a stone sword and two pieces of rotting flesh.
"Are Creepers this powerful in this world?"
Su He looked at the huge pit; the Creeper's power was far greater than he had imagined.
Keep in mind that a level 2 zombie has a full 25 health points.
Even it can be easily killed by an explosion, let alone him with only 20 health points.
Monsters can increase their health by leveling up, but he can't.
At this stage, Su He has not yet found a way to increase the maximum health.
Always keep the shield in your hand. No matter what unexpected situation arises, this shield, which has been with you from the beginning until now, remains your greatest trump card.
"Make some adjustments; try to stay away from trees and other obstructions when walking."
After issuing new orders to the monsters, Su He, recalling the power of the Creeper from earlier, even considered whether he should form a contract with some Creepers.
He originally didn't want to contract a Creeper, a monster.
After all, servants can grow, and the only way a Creeper can attack is by self-destructing.
Such a one-time use monster that cannot be reused is not his first choice.
"I wonder what level the Creeper was. If it was just a level 1 Creeper, then I'll probably have to consider making more contracts."
Su He pondered the possibilities that the Creeper could bring, showing no sadness whatsoever for the zombie that had just turned into a fallen object.
He is a person who understands the importance of being prepared for unforeseen circumstances; he considers potential extreme situations that may arise in the future.
For example, in a completely unfamiliar other world outside of the Minecraft block.
If one day, someone he cannot defeat notices this place, Su He will have to come up with some ways to defeat them even if he is of a higher level.
Creepers are undoubtedly an option.
"I just hope this thing can do even more damage, and that I can contract a few more of them."
Low-level laborers are definitely not enough, and these things are not easy to upgrade, so it would be best if I could directly contract several level three ones.
A contract requires a close-range casting environment, but as long as you have a shield and maintain a safe distance, Suho can safely form a contract with a Creeper.
It's worth mentioning that although his official profession is necromancer, his skill is called Dominate the Necromancer.
However, the skill's effect is that it allows him to contract most of the hostile creatures in Minecraft.
Since spiders can form contracts, then creepers should be able to as well.
Originally, Su He's goal for this operation was to contract more spiders and create more spider riders.
However, the level 3 necromancer gave him a full 30 servant slots.
There is no need to worry about a shortage of servants.
During his search for Creepers and spiders, Su He also contracted two level-two zombies so that he could test the power of Creepers when he encountered them later.
After finding a level 1 Creeper, I had a level 2 Zombie approach it for testing, and the final result was the same as the beginning.
A level 1 Creeper can easily kill a level 2 Zombie.
This is undoubtedly good news for Su He.
After a while, the group encountered another green creeper on their way.
After using the system to identify it, we obtained its information, and it turned out to be a level 3 Creeper.
Su He climbed off the spider and cautiously approached the Creeper, shield in hand.
The shield could withstand the Creeper's explosive damage, but even so, his hands holding the shield were still sweating with tension.
The Creeper locks onto an enemy and begins its self-destruction within a three-tile radius, while its own contract spell has a range of approximately four tiles.
Adding the time it would take for the Creeper to self-destruct, Su He estimated that he could contract the Creeper before the explosion.
The final result was roughly what he had envisioned; the Creeper was successfully contracted before the hissing alarm ended.
Even after giving the Creeper orders not to attack indiscriminately and to act only when instructed by him, Su He's heart was still pounding.
He mounted the spider again, and the Creeper, who had just been contracted, pondered for a moment after seeing its master's actions.
After Suhe gave the order again, the Creeper came to him and bent down.
