Chapter 274 - 274 Special Troops Recruited by the Crystal
274 Special Troops Recruited by the Crystal
Su Wan had troops that any Lord would covet and would do anything to own. Right now, the troops were lined up in an orderly manner in front of her.
After expending resources to recruit such troop types, Su Wan’s lips curled into a satisfied smile. She could finally enjoy the life of a Lord.
She opened the market interface. She searched for rare Dark-Type troops. The price was set from the highest to the lowest.
Su Wan shook her head in dismay. The most expensive troop type was worth 200,000 units of resources. The cheapest was 100,000 units.
The price was too great, but the attributes were lacking. Su Wan gave up on the idea of buying another troop.
The recent attack had shown Su Wan a gaping hole in her defenses. Even if there were no gaps in her defenses, having troops that were good in long-range combat was always beneficial.
She took out the crystal ball.
[Night Flame Archer]
[Level: 56]
[Potential: Rare SS-class.]
[Range: 220 meters (+66 meters).]
[Skill: Body of the Night (D-rank, immune to poison, curses, plague, strength increased by 50%).]
[Abilities]
[Congeal Fire into Arrow: A-class. Consumes energy to congeal fire into longbows and arrows. No need to replenish. Recovers automatically after damage.]
[Storing Power Attack: A-grade. After charging, an arrow with 300% power can be released. It also has piercing damage.]
[Rapid Shooting: B-grade. Consecutively shoots 30 arrows within 10 seconds. Cooldown: 5 minutes.]
[Race Talent: Increase accuracy by 40%.]
[Dark Archer: More than 50 Archers, 30% increase in range, 30% increase in strength.]
[Note: When standing in the darkness, their flaming arrows will be endless.]
Su Wan nodded with satisfaction. She was satisfied with the attributes.
She now had a total of 150 Night Flame Archers. That was enough to defend against sudden attacks for now.
Su Wan looked at the Rotten Cavalry. She opened the attribute panel.
He continued to summon the evolved troops from the crystal.
Above the Death Knight Pyramid, white light surged. The pyramid formed by the bones of the horses began to change.
The bone horse trembled, and its head suddenly flared with a blue Soul Fire. The white bone horse slowly stood up, raised its head, and stomped its hooves on the ground. Its movement was no different from an ordinary horse.
After stretching its muscles and bones, the White Bone Horse turned around and walked to the front of the Death Knight Pyramid, lying down on the ground.
It seemed to be waiting for its rider to get on its back. Bones flew out and bandaged arms crawled out from the pyramid.
A knight holding a bone ax climbed out and rode on the back of the white bone horse. The white raised its front hooves in the air. It slammed its hooves on the ground with a thud.
Other Death Knights appeared in the same way until the summoning was completed.
[Rotten Axe Death Knight]
[Level: Level 58]
[Potential: Rare A-class.]
[Skill: Dead Body (A-grade, immune to poison, curses, plague, strength increased by 50%, charge speed increased by 30%).]
[Abilities]
[Berserk Charge: A-grade. Increases to maximum speed in three seconds. Increases collision power by 200%.]
[Giant Axe Slash: B-grade. When swinging the giant ax while charging, it can increase strength by 50%, causing heavy damage.]
[Treading on Sand: B-grade, charging on the sand, speed increased by 30%, impact increased by 50%.]
[Race Talent: When more people die, strength increases by 50%, and recovery speed increases by 50%.]
[Charge: When the charging distance reaches 100 meters, the charging force increases by 300%.]
[Note: They are spears that can tear apart the enemy’s line of defense. No one is willing to face the charging cavalry.]
Su Wan’s eyes sparkled in delight. She had seen troops like these in some of the ruins before.
They were powerful. Moreover, with Xu Yuan’s Demonic Dragon’s Blessing, they would be invincible!
Compared to the two new troop types, the Solidifying Sand Archers were of a lower level. The long-range troops were the most important right now. If enemies broke through and attacked them from behind, the territory would be at a disadvantage.
The combat troops could be used to form a defensive line around them. When the enemy charged, they would realize that they had no luck defeating their prey. That would be exciting!
‘Unfortunately, the energy of the crystal is at an end. Otherwise…’ While Su Wan was thinking, the troops had already gathered.
Looking at the powerful troops. Su Wan felt ecstatic.
“Xu Yuan, can you charge the crystal again?”
“You can’t charge it to its fullest unless another Fire Elemental Lord spends 100,000 years and accumulates more energy on it.” Xu Yuan rolled his eyes at her.
However, what he said was true. Even if he possessed fire attributes, he couldn’t accumulate the energy into the crystal right now. It would take around ten thousand years.
“Alright. The energy spent was worth it, though!” Su Wan looked at the crystal in her hand and tried to think of a way to get the Fire Elemental Lord to charge the crystal if they met in the future. She was looking forward to meeting the creature again.
Su Wan was brought back to reality with the arrival of one of the Night Elves. The team that was sent to track down the last of the Venom Vultures had returned.
“We couldn’t find any cracks in the void from where the Venom Vultures appeared.” The Night Elf’s voice was solemn. “Numerous Light Bears suddenly appeared out of nowhere and blocked our way. We couldn’t chase the vultures and had to find another way to return to the territory.”
“Light Bears?” Xu Yuan opened his sleepy eyes.
As expected, Su Wan was right about the Night Devil Queen Bee being the target of the Light-Types. If they lost the Night Devil Queen Bee, the Night Devil Bees wouldn’t be able to regenerate.
Xu Yuan rarely made a move. So, it was up to Su Wan and the others to counterattack.
“We suspect that there’s an entrance to the underground area nearby. Those Venom Vultures might have gone there.” The Night Elf in charge of scouting voiced out his thoughts.
Xu Yuan’s eyes lit up. ‘A hidden entrance…’
The underground area was often associated with wealth and adventure. It was right up his alley.
