Gavin originally just asked casually, but when he heard it was the Blazing Skeleton, he suddenly became more energetic and quickly asked: "How far is your original territory from here? What type of undead lord is it that drove you out?"
In his hands, the Blazing Skeleton is not just a simple long-range unit, but also a basic officer of the Skeleton.
If he masters the origin of this kind of skeletons, he can continuously produce low-level skeleton officers and expand his army faster.
Instead of this method of transforming skeletons one by one.
It's really nice to keep blasting troops, but once anything is done as work, it becomes a bit unpleasant.
And as the number of troops began to increase, once the number exceeded 10,000, this transformation method could no longer keep up. He had to find a suitable way to distribute the transformation methods and find people to do it for him.
“I have been in exile for too long, and there is no fixed route. I am often forced to take detours to avoid the powerful undead lords who are perched on the bone pool, so it is difficult to judge the distance.
Maybe dozens of kilometers, maybe hundreds of kilometers, maybe even hundreds of kilometers.”
The Bone Lord gave an ambiguous answer. The answer was, "The undead lord newly born in the Flame Skeleton Pool is too powerful. I have no possibility of defeating it in this life, and I have never thought about going back."
"I don't remember the specific distance, but there is a general direction. Okay, gathering places like Blazing Skeletons must be very conspicuous, and it shouldn't be difficult to find them through aerial reconnaissance," Gavin said confidently.
The giant prairie eagle he transformed into can fly at subsonic speeds, and with his current attributes, just a three-stage bionic technique can unlock a legendary body.
And my current power points are enough to perform more than thirty third-stage bionic techniques every day, lasting more than five hundred minutes in total.
One day is enough to explore hundreds of kilometers of territory.
The reason why he didn't do this was because he was cautious and didn't want to attract too much attention.
Making a fortune silently and secretly increasing your strength is the best way to survive.
But if it is for better development, he can still bear some necessary risks.
"The general direction should be to the south." The Skeleton Lord said with some uncertainty, "There is no clear reference in the Bone Plains.
It's better if you have your own bone pool. , you can connect it to it by establishing a spiritual connection with it The direction is used as a sign.
Without the Bone Pool, the sense of direction will be completely lost here. What I say about southeast, northwest and northwest is just my feeling and may not be accurate. ”
< br>"That's true." Gavin was convinced.
Don't use the physical laws of the material plane to fit into the endless abyss, it won't work.
There is neither sun nor moon here, nor stars, only endless gray.
Because the top of their heads is not the sky, but another continent. If nothing else, it should be the 420th floor.
As for the level they are on, whether it is flat or round remains to be verified.
On the other side of the earth beneath their feet is the sky in another dimension, or in other words, the sky.
In other words, it would be feasible to build a Tower of Babel here, or to dig through the earth to reach the other side.
It’s just that the difficulty is not that high. No matter how low the distance between the two levels is, it is tens of thousands of meters.
Even with the help of magic, a tower of tens of thousands of meters is still wishful thinking, unless the geographical environment is special enough.
The Plain of Bones is an endless plain of bones, but the level above is not. When Gavin was flying previously, he saw a huge mountain peak hanging upside down in the sky, which had broken through the separation between the two levels. The boundaries are extremely weird and shocking.
Gavin had made a test flight before, and the reason why he was able to find it back was because of the positioning guidance of the dog demon and the killing skeleton soldier.
Since there is no accurate division here, then pointing north is north. Anyway, it is to help you identify it. You can just find a way to build a corresponding sign later.
Gavin then asked: "You haven't said yet, what kind of undead lord is it that drove you out?"
The Skeleton Lord said with a hint of doubt in his tone: "No. I don’t want to tell the lord, but I don’t know what species the other party belongs to, because in my memory, there is no undead of this species, and I have never seen it. It looks like A burning humanoid flame. It can penetrate into the enemy's body like a ghost and ignite it from the inside out. The Blazing Skeleton, which is also a flame controller and has extremely high flame resistance, cannot withstand its terrifying flames and will be burned to ashes, which it enjoys."
"Incorporeal subspecies! Flame subspecies!" After Gavin listened to the description of the Skeleton Lord, a figure appeared in his mind involuntarily. He waved his hand and projected it in the form of a projection. "Look, it's Isn’t it similar to it?”
In the projection, there is a soldier with an extremely painful expression, and he is caught in a blazing fire.
This kind of burning is very abnormal. It is not limited to the surface, but goes deep into the body, from the inside to the outside.
Those flames twisted into a colorful human shape, the face of which was particularly clear, especially the eyes, which seemed to be flashing with white light. It was just a projection, and you could feel the strong malice emanating from it. And crazy twists.
After seeing this projection, the three skeletal faces of the Skeleton Lord showed unconcealable fear. This came from the instinct of the soul. He nodded and replied affirmatively: "That's it!"
"Sure enough, it is the Burning Flame Spirit. This is a high-level undead that has been legendary since birth. No wonder you have to run away." Gavin said seriously, "If it is this kind of undead, we will have to take a long-term approach."
This kind of undead should be an extremely rare existence, let alone in the material plane, even in the bottomless abyss. Whenever it appears, it is a disaster level.
For wherever it goes, it brings fire and death.
Thanks to the fact that this is the Bone Plains of the Abyss, there aren’t many things to ignite for it. If it were on the material plane, it would probably have destroyed countless cities and forests.
It is this characteristic that prevents them from existing in the material plane for long, because the forces and strong men from all sides will destroy them regardless of the cost.
Physical attacks will greatly reduce the damage to this undead spirit. On the contrary, its attack method of occupying the body and burning from the inside is very difficult. If you are not careful, you will fall into trouble.
To deal with such an enemy, targeted tactics must be prepared.
The Bone Lord just listened silently and did not express any opinions, because he had no desire for revenge from the beginning to the end. Everything was a plan made by Gavin after hearing his information.
"Let's talk about the surrounding intelligence. In addition to the Skeleton Horse Pool, what other bone pools are there in the surrounding area? Who occupies it?" Gavin turned the topic to immediate intelligence.
Whether it is in terms of distance or strength, this body-burning flame spirit is destined to be the target of the mid-term war.
Not to mention that its location has not yet been determined, even if it is determined.
Gavin will not pass over the undead lords along the way and kill them. Instead, he will push them all the way and bring all the undead lords along the way under his own banner. Fighting for himself is the right way. .
“There is also a plague bone pool to the northwest. What emerged from there were plague zombies, controlled by an ogre zombie.
There is also a skeleton lord to the east. , what he has most in his hand are skulls and bull heads.
There is also a corpse hound entrenched there in the southwest. It is guarded by a large number of skeleton dogs. It is the most powerful undead around, but because it has no intelligence, its power here is relatively small. Scattered.”
The Bone Lord summarized the information he had in a concise and comprehensive manner.
"Corpse Hound?" Gavin was attracted by one of the names.
Since destroying the evil in Mosantir City, destroying the Death Patroller, and absorbing its energy, secondary bone strengthening and secondary bone manipulation have been enabled.
Gavin is very interested in the undead corpses similar to the Death Patrollers. He has collected three types of undead in total - Death Patrollers, Corpse Crabs and Corpse Hounds.
In his opinion, they are different branches of the same undead, essentially the same, and their core abilities are to absorb corpses.
The difference in appearance and ability should be caused by their origins. After all, different necromancers have different preferences. Some people like the exotic form of the death hunter, while others have a special liking for hounds. Some people have a passion for crabs.
There are only a very small number of undead in this world, who were born under special circumstances and circumstances.
Most of the undead are artificially created as war tools. This is the case for the three types of corpse undead mentioned above. Even the skeleton lord in front of me is like this. He may not even be from Faerûn. plane.
In the multiverse, there is only one bottomless abyss, but there are countless material planes. The final destination of the evil souls in their worlds is here.
This is why the Abyss and the Nine Hells always have an endless supply of souls, and their area far exceeds the material plane. Now that fate has brought us to the Plain of Bones, the home of these corpses and undead, we must take the opportunity to maximize these two abilities.
I just didn’t expect to encounter one of them so soon.
Gavin naturally would not explain too much to the Skeleton Lord. He thought about it for a moment and said: "We will follow the principle of step-by-step, easy things first and difficult ones later. Let's operate on the Skeleton Cavalry Lord and cut off its body first. Seize the skeleton horse pool and try to upgrade all our infantry to cavalry.
Your current task is to lure the enemy out of his lair and enter the preset battlefield. I will send dog demons to protect your safety.”
As the number of troops in my hand increases, more and more soldiers will be added. Those hundred and ten flaming skeletons were incorporated into the killing skeleton soldiers, and he could play some simple strategies and tactics.
The more sophisticated the strategy and tactics, the better, but the more effective they are.
When you are dealing with a group of unintelligent beasts, you are playing both vertical and horizontal and psychological tactics. You are basically playing the piano against a cow.
Only when facing sufficiently high-end enemies can the significance and value of strategy and tactics be reflected.
Gavin’s current situation is the former.
Although the skeleton cavalry lord has awakened his mind because of his status as a lord, it is obviously not too high.
The Skeleton Lord approached his skeleton horse pool with thousands of skeleton soldiers he had just recruited and transformed. He couldn't wait to lead thousands of skeleton cavalry and rushed out in a mighty manner.
More skeleton cavalry and skeleton horses stayed in place.
The number of troops that these low-level undead lords can control is relatively limited. This skeleton knight lord can control so many skeleton cavalry only with the blessing of the skeleton horse pool, otherwise he can control only one or two thousand. limit.
The Skeleton Lord can control so many undead because it was created for the Skeleton Sea tactics, and most of its abilities are used to strengthen and control the number of skeleton soldiers.
Seeing the Skeleton Cavalry Lord take action, the Skeleton Lord immediately led his skeleton soldiers to turn around and run away. The already loose formation of the skeleton soldiers was immediately impossible to see. There was no need to act at all, no matter how you looked at it, A group of broken soldiers.
The Skeleton Cavalry Lord led his elite troops and quickly rushed forward. There was no need to launch an attack at all, he could just step on them.
Compared to ordinary skeleton soldiers, this skeleton cavalry is quite powerful and domineering.
Both the skeleton cavalry and the skeleton war horses are actually wearing thick bone armor, and the bone weapons in their hands are relatively uniform. They are all heavy bone two-handed weapons that are easy to hammer.
With the speed of the horse, many skeleton soldiers were directly smashed to pieces with one hammer.
According to the Skeleton Lord, this is another use of the Skeleton Pool. Under the control of the Undead Lord, they can produce bone equipment in batches.
As for the principle.
In this world, what principles are needed.
The Bone Plains has been like this since its birth.
These undead lords fight around these different bone pools, large and small. This is an instinct engraved in the hearts of all undead.
Gavin has his own speculation about this.
This is clearly the refining of the undead. Through endless wars, more high-level undead are cultivated and screened out.
Looking at the undead around, you will know that although there are many in number, they are all low-level cannon fodder that cannot be used for much purpose. Before meeting the Skeleton Lord, he had not even seen a few skeleton soldiers above level five. indivual.
Skeleton Lord Bradford is also in the same situation. There are very few high-level soldiers, and most of them are low-level skeleton soldiers who are just trying to make up for their numbers. They are out-and-out cannon fodder.
The Skeleton Cavalry Lord who has his own bone pool is different.
The two thousand skeleton cavalry he led not only have complete equipment, but also have high levels. Level five is the minimum standard, and the average can reach level seven or eight. The hundreds of close-knit warriors surrounding the lord of the skeleton cavalry are Wei is even more extraordinary per capita.
On the material plane, this scale is enough to serve as the main army of a city or a small country.
In the Abyss, it is only the most basic unit.
When a more powerful demon lord, even one who rules a plane, gives the order, these low-level lords will respond to their king just like human knights, bringing their own servants and soldiers to participate. Go to war.
You can easily raise a terrifying demon army.
The Bone Pool located at the rear is still cultivating more low-level lords and elite soldiers in the same way, waiting for a new round of call.
If this kind of war leaves the endless abyss, then there is no need to train new soldiers. After these skeleton cavalry die in battle, they will be reshaped in the bone pool where they belong.
Don’t underestimate the dangers of the Bone Plains just because of Gavin’s extraordinary performance.
If it were not for the unique dominance of the killing power over the undead, even if he was a divine choice, he would have all kinds of incredible abilities.
He could only hide his aura honestly, pass by secretly, and look for a way to leave this place.
Although those skeleton soldiers are unable to cause harm to him, they are endless and will drain all his spell casting slots and physical strength.
Although Yamen Khan used the fragments of the Killing Godhead to trick Gavin and drive him into the abyss, he also gave him a supreme weapon, which has unimaginable power here.
Coupled with Gavin's own powerful ability, he can definitely exert the power of one plus one more than two. It is difficult to say whether the advantages outweigh the disadvantages or the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.
If Yamen Khan knew about this situation, would he be angry to death again?
Ordinary skeleton soldiers are powerless to fight back in front of the Skeleton Cavalry Legion.
I can’t beat you.
I can't run, but I can't run.
Soon the Skeleton Lord was left with only about two hundred killing skeleton cavalry.
Although these killing skeleton cavalry are soaked in blood by the power of killing and have been strengthened to a certain extent, they are still different from the skeleton cavalry army in terms of appearance.
After all, they are just peripheral defective products that the Bone Lord secretly poached from around the bone pools.
The only advantage of the Killing Skeleton Cavalry is speed. Their skeleton horses are wrapped in earthy yellow light, and even stepping on the plains full of bones is like walking on flat ground.
These killer skeleton cavalry horses are obviously more expensive than people.
Those skeleton knights are only infused with the divine power of killing, while their mounts are additionally infused with the divine power of the road in order to increase their movement speed.
Compared with the killing power that can be squandered without restraint, Gavin is quite cautious when using the power of the road.
After all, this kind of constructive divine power accumulates relatively slowly. Gavin currently only receives 100 new points every day - all of which were generated by his previous layout in Faerûn.
In the Plains of Bones, he has not found a good source yet.
But the effect is obvious. No matter how hard the Skeleton Cavalry Legion tries, they are still several hundred meters short of killing the Skeleton Cavalry.
Unconsciously, they left their territory for three or four kilometers and plunged into a canyon of bones.
It is said to be a canyon of bones. In fact, it is just two bones piled up and sandwiched between them.
The human traces of these two skeleton bags are very obvious, and the stability of the skeleton bags itself is also very worrying. From time to time, bones will slip from them.
If it were a normal cavalry regiment, seeing such terrain, the cavalry in the front row would actively stop the pursuit and check the surrounding situation without the commander's order.
But the Skeleton Cavalry Legion does not belong to the normal legion. Most of the Skeleton Cavalry have no command at all and will just follow the enemy's ass stupidly.
When they saw the Killing Skeleton Cavalry passing through quickly, they plunged in without hesitation. (End of this chapter)
