Have you heard the story of using the tiger’s might? Right now, Zero is precisely that confident fox walking in front of the "tiger."
Attack is no good, defense is no good, but being clever is a must. Zero thought to himself.
Earlier, Little Eight mentioned that the maps of "Military Road" are divided into three major categories. One is the blue map automatically provided by the system. This map could be a layout of a city or a coordinate map of a certain area. In this area, it is absolutely safe.
The second category is the orange map. Generally, it is located near the blue area, such as the location where Zero and Yijie are going to exterminate bandits, a hill or a forest in the suburbs. The orange area might be safe, and players may face various attacks. However, the scale of attacks is generally small, and the enemies are weaker. Generally speaking, the chances of defending against enemies in these areas are greater than in the blue map, but not excessively dangerous.
The third category is the red map. These maps belong to the exploration type, where even Yijie, let alone Zero, has never encountered before. No matter which of the latter two types of maps, once a player enters, they will automatically own the map when entering the second time, facilitating their next entry.
"How did you find your way when you completed the bandit extermination mission before?" After Zero asked, a cold stare shot from behind him.
"Find someone to lead the way."
Finding someone in the wild to lead the way? Unless it’s asking the bandits to lead the way. After feeling that chilling gaze, Zero confirmed that the man behind him would definitely do something like using bandits as guides.
Outside Babylon City, a few bandits gathered. Some were troublemakers expelled from the city, and others were bandits formed by the defeated soldiers of the city states allied armies crushed by the Babylon Army, who harbored hatred.
The two types of bandits each have their strengths. The first type is familiar with the terrain but have poor combat capabilities. The second type is the opposite, not familiar with the terrain but have strong combat abilities.
Located in the Two River Valley is Ancient Bablon, also known as the modern-day Iraq Region. Despite being full of war-torn scars and widespread sand in 2064, thousands of years ago, this place was indeed a land of abundance.
The fertile soils from Tigris and Euphrates rivers nurtured countless productive plains. The river valleys covered in greenery always carried the fragrance of various seasonal fruits.
The mountains in Babylon are not like the mountains in Hua Country, high or steep; the surrounding mountains are no more than one hundred meters high, barely small mounds, with very gentle slopes between them. Walking here, one does not need to spend much physical strength.
"River valleys or high-altitude caves are the places where bandits are most frequently found," Zero pointed out several locations. She was actually acting as a reconnaissance soldier for the first time. Moreover, because the terrain here is too flat, she could easily spot bandits, and the bandits could easily spot them as well. Zero was looking ahead when suddenly, Yijie picked her up.
The ground they were walking on collapsed into a big hole. Yijie reacted extremely quickly; he was following behind Zero, but now he had already rushed in front of her.
It was a well-camouflaged trap, covered with Arabian mustard on the surface. The hole was about more than five feet deep, with dozens of sharpened wooden blades fitted at the bottom.
"In addition to people, you must also be vigilant against traps and attacks from carnivorous animals after entering the forest,"
From a practical combat perspective, Yijie was much stronger than Zero. No wonder Zero overlooked this; in Prehistoric Space, no one would think of using traps to deal with dinosaurs.
So even though Yijie’s pulling almost broke her neck with the collar, she obediently took caution in her heart.
However, with this trap, both of them saved a lot of effort.
Just as the trap was exposed, four bandits sprang up from the side, holding daggers and shouting, "You foreigners, I’m going to chop you to death."
"Bandit minions, Physical Strength 200. Special Skills: Shouting." Zero confidently announced a series of attributes and quickly moved behind Yijie.
Just relying on Yijie’s height of 1.9 meters was enough to intimidate those bandit minions.
"I’ll take three, and leave the loudest one for you," Yijie said as he pulled back Zero to her original position with his left hand.
"Are you kidding me? These four aren’t even enough to fill your gaps," Zero was dissatisfied. After all, it was her first time facing enemies; it was good to observe first.
