Chapter 19 The Powerful Scorpion Warrior
"But it's a pity that only a part of the food can be sold. The food in Twilight City is also very tight, so there is not much available.
"Hundreds of people eat, drink, and defecate every day, as well as 30 long-armed peons and 20 desert goblins.
“In a harsh environment like the desert, each person consumes at least two units of food per day.
"The warehouse looks wealthy, but it would be nice if we don't buy food from outside."
Richard shook his head.
The current food inventory can only last for more than ten days, which is too little for a territory, making him extremely insecure.
If anything changes, Twilight City simply cannot afford it.
I have a plan in mind.
"At this stage, hunting is undoubtedly more beneficial than occupying resource points. In the short term, hunting can be the main goal of exploration."
While thinking, he got up and left the lord's mansion, coming to the well.
The residents at this time had just finished processing today's prey.
Richard directly took 200 units of food in exchange for 8,000 units of resources.
Gold coins, wood, stone, and iron ore were exchanged for an average of 2,000 units.
After encouraging the hard-working residents, he turned and returned to the mansion.
Place the newly obtained poisonous scorpion nest next to the Great Pyramid.
Choose Build.
In an instant, 1,600 units of resources were consumed.
at the same time.
The troop nest he placed on the ground began to expand like a balloon.
In a matter of seconds, it turned into a three-meter-high earth house.
The exterior of the earthen house is entirely painted with ancient yellow soil, with a scorpion body and human face pattern embossed on it. The thick dry grass on the top forms a special pattern and is spread on top of the building.
This building looks like an ancient building dug out of the earth, and it has an inexplicable sense of mystery.
[Poisonous Scorpion Lair (normal 3 stars) - Consuming 10 ordinary desert camp troop lair cores can upgrade it to elite 3 stars. The conditions have been met. Do you want to upgrade? 】
The prompts from the black gold system arrived as promised.
After the selection was confirmed, the 10 soldier nests in his hand were directly shattered, turned into light and merged into the poisonous scorpion nest.
A gray light floated.
The relief sculpture with a human face and a scorpion body in front of the poisonous scorpion lair becomes more eye-catching with the blessing of mysterious power.
The attribute panel changed after the light retreated.
Poisonous Scorpion Lair
[Level]: Elite 3 stars
[Recruitable units]: Poisonous Scorpion Warrior (Elite 3 stars)
[Quantity available for recruitment]: 14
【Weekly output】: 7
[Recruitment conditions]: 40 gold coins, 40 units of wood, 40 units of iron ore
[Introduction]: An ordinary desert military lair.
Upgrade successful.
Richard was in a very happy mood.
However, the resources required for recruitment have also increased significantly.
Unfortunately, there is a seven-day cooldown period after each troop nest is promoted. Otherwise, if you sell more food, you can directly upgrade it to the rare level.
Recruiting a scorpion warrior requires 120 units of resources, 14 equals 1680 units.
All recruited.
At the moment of selection, a gray energy lingered in the poisonous scorpion's lair.
After a while, the energy began to pour into the relief in front of the poisonous scorpion's lair.
The relief gradually began to fill up, as if filled with flesh and blood, and then gradually came to life
When the energy was condensed to a certain extent, the relief suddenly opened its eyes.
Taking one step forward, he broke away from the wall of the poisonous scorpion's lair and stood firmly on the ground.
This scene is extremely cool, like a scene from a myth.
Richard nodded with satisfaction.
The poisonous scorpion warrior is two meters tall, with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a poisonous scorpion.
The muscles on his body seemed to be forged from steel, with extremely obvious outlines.
The long scorpion tail is countless times sharper than a spear.
The arms are not human hands, but two venomous scorpion pincers that shine with cold light.
Click, click, click. As soon as they are closed together, they immediately make a crisp sound of metal friction. No one can doubt the terrifying lethality of these two iron pliers.
After the iron pliers are closed, a butcher-like iron hook is exposed at the front. Even if the iron pliers are not opened, attacking with the iron hook can still cause exaggerated damage.
The most chilling thing is the scorpion warrior's cold brown eyes that are lifeless and emotionless.
At first glance, it gives people great psychological pressure.
Richard opened the properties panel with full expectation.
Scorpion Warrior
[Level]: Level 1
[Potential]: Elite 3 stars
[Skill]: Undead Body (Level F, reduces physical damage by 30%, immune to plague and poison, will not die as long as the head is not cut off.)
Poisonous Scorpion Tail (Level E, the scorpion tail can cause armor-breaking damage and is also highly poisonous. It will cause huge toxic damage after being stung.)
Giant iron pliers (E level, the sharpness of the pair of pliers is increased by 30%, and the strength when attacking is increased by 30%)
[Racial Talent]: Strength increases by 30% when fighting in the desert.
[Bond - Scorpions]: If the number of scorpions is greater than 10, the power of all scorpions will be increased by 10%, and the toxicity will be increased by 10% (activated);
The number is greater than 20, the strength is increased by 20%, and the toxicity is increased by 20%;
If the number is greater than 30, the strength increases by 30% and the toxicity increases by 30%.
[Introduction]: I believe you won’t want to be stung by the undead life sealed in the Pharaoh’s Pyramid.
Richard was in a very happy mood.
Sure enough, after the potential was increased, the skill levels of the poisonous scorpion warriors were improved, and their attributes were greatly enhanced.
14 poisonous scorpion warriors, two meters tall, with a pair of large pincers and curved scorpion tails, stood neatly in front of them, immediately giving people a strong sense of oppression.
This unit is more showy than the Bandage Mummy.
"Master, thank you for giving us new life!"
The poisonous scorpion warriors all raised their chests and bowed, saluting their master with the most respectful gesture.
Troops recruited from the Troop Nest will be eternally loyal to the master who recruited them.
Richard nodded slightly.
Slowly stretch out your right hand.
A light like yellow sand began to rise in the palm of my hand, like a storm blown by a strong wind into the sand.
Then all the light poured into the poisonous scorpion warrior
"Ding~ With your gift, the 14 scorpion warriors have mastered part of the power of the desert and gained a new skill - sand transformation (level D)."
When the light faded, Richard opened their attribute panel, and the sand transformation skills appeared on it.
The characteristics of Sand Transformation being immune to 99% physical damage are combined with the powerful attack power of Poisonous Scorpion Warriors.
Richard was excited just thinking about that scene.
Isn't this just opening Wushuang? !
If he encounters a field soldier like the Nak Troll again, he can definitely pass it by force.
Richard was in a good mood.
This way.
He has two elite-level military nests in his hands.
The Great Pyramid can recruit elite 3-star bandage mummies, which are good at cursing and can greatly reduce the enemy's attributes, and even cause the enemy to be cursed to death.
The Poisonous Scorpion Lair can recruit elite 3-star Poisonous Scorpion warriors, who have powerful attack power and are good at tough battles and frontal attacks.
The total number of the two arms is 28, which is nearly the strength of three squads.
This is only the second day of entering this world, and the future is promising. (End of chapter)
