Chapter 54: Training the Burning Cavalry (seeking follow-up reading)
Helot received all the chaos crystals into his space bag, and then gave Yanyu Chuhua a sum of game gold coins.
"Go on and collect as much as you want. 1,000 gold is a reward for you."
"Thank you, Boss Broken Bones." Yanyu Chuhua happily received the gold coins, and then said: "Broken Bones Boss Bone, with the initial capital you gave us, the four of us decided to become game merchants. Let us know what you need in the future, and we can help you sell any unwanted materials.
There are many tycoons in our college student associations who are not short of money.”
Helot laughed: "Okay! I will give priority to you when I have business in the future. I also wish you a prosperous business and a lot of wealth."
"I wish you a lot of money, Mr. Broken Bones!"
While chatting with Yanyu Chuhua, Helot came to the central hall of the skull maze.
This place has been completely closed and turned into a military camp.
When the terrifying knight Howl saw Herot arriving, he immediately stepped forward to greet him and gathered his existing troops for review.
The troops currently in Herot's hands are:
Skeleton Soldiers: 525 (mercenary level 36) initial level 10
Skeleton Mage: 128 (mercenary level 19) initial level 20
Skeleton Axeman: 64 (mercenary level 16) initial level 30
Burning Cavalry: 49 (mercenary level 49) initial level 45
Total strength: 766
All units can be upgraded.
Putting this kind of military power in the land of death, any undead lord can press them to the ground and rub them, but Helot still couldn't hide the excitement in his heart when he looked at the skeleton soldiers lined up.
This is the beginning of the revival of the family cemetery, and more and more undead will join in the future.
One day, the undead army of the Claude family will once again spread out on the land where their ancestors fought.
And the Burning Cavalry brought another surprise to Helot.
Fully mercenary unit!
Helot randomly clicked on the attributes of several Burning Cavalry to check, and none had a command requirement lower than 150. One-third of them had a command requirement of more than 200 points, and were considered hero-level units.
It’s so scary.
It is indeed a new undead troop that has been contaminated and mutated by chaotic energy.
Helot immediately gave Howl 5,000 small particles of chaos crystals and immediately trained a group of burning cavalry.
Howl received the small particles of chaos crystal and ordered ten skeleton soldiers to come forward.
Ten skeleton soldiers lined up, their thin ribs without any armor, and the only weapon in their hands was a bone sword.
They are the lowest unit of the undead army and the main force of most undead armies. Their only advantage is their quantity. The advancement of the sea of skeleton soldiers is enough to cope with most war scenarios.
The ten idiotic skeleton soldiers only carried out the order based on instinct, telling them not to move. Even if they were smashed, they would not move.
Howl grabbed a handful of small particles of chaos crystals and threw them at the ten skeleton soldiers, and at the same time activated his talent for training Burning Cavalry.
Small particles of chaos crystals were grouped in the air, and every ten of them rushed towards a skeleton soldier. The strong kinetic energy cracked the bones of the skeleton soldier and embedded them in the forehead, neck, spine, ribs, and limbs.
Then the originally colorless chaos crystal turned red and became hot, producing high-temperature flames that burned the skeleton soldiers.
Soon, each skeleton soldier was burned into piles of fiery ashes.
A whirlwind blew onto the ashes, and the red-hot powder swirled to form a magic circle pattern. The ashes became even brighter, changing from red to blazing white, and then violently erupted into flames upwards. Amid the fireworks, a high-pitched hooting sound erupted, and the ashes were blown up by the fire to form a burning skeleton.
The horse's cry sounded again, and the magic circle at the feet of the burning skeleton expanded instantly. A skeleton horse, bathed in fire, rose from the center of the magic circle, carrying the burning skeleton on its back.
Looking closely, the bones in the flames are broken, and the connecting bones show complex rune patterns.
The first batch of Burning Cavalry was trained, consuming 100 small Chaos Crystals.
Helot looked over the ten newly released Burning Cavalry.
All of them are mercenary-level units with a command requirement of more than 100, but the quality is worse than the natural burning cavalry. Among the ten burning cavalry, there are only two heroic units with a command requirement of more than 200.
Helot asked Howl to continue training.
Batch after batch of burning cavalry were trained. After all the 5,000 small chaos crystals are consumed, there will be 500 less skeleton soldiers and 500 more burning cavalry in the central hall.
With more data comparisons, Hailot can confirm that the overall quality of the Burning Cavalry obtained through training is slightly lower than the naturally produced Burning Cavalry in terms of growth potential, but they are still all good. Can reach the level of mercenaries.
This little regret is not worth mentioning in terms of the overall harvest.
After all, from the lowest skeleton soldiers to the special mutant burning cavalry, the combat power of a unit can be improved by several orders of magnitude, bringing the army of the old cemetery to a whole new level.
Helot has more expectations for the war he will participate in next.
It’s just that the time for camp offensive and defensive events is too short. I’m afraid there will rarely be a good time to collect so many small particles of chaos crystals in one day in the future. Naturally, we can’t train so many small particles at once like today. More Burning Cavalry.
Building an army mainly relies on accumulation over time.
If you want to speed up the output of the army, you need to install more chaos energy compression furnaces to increase the output of death energy.
Building a chaos energy compression furnace requires money.
A lot of gold was spent on today’s purchase.
Time to make some money!
Helot asked Howl to train the army and kill more chaos beasts to increase his individual level.
Then use the City Portal Scroll to teleport to Scorched Earth City.
As soon as he appeared in the teleportation array, a message appeared in the game interface.
[War Events]
[Marquis Dorothea, Lord of Scorched Earth City, announced: Conquer Lord Pozo of Mudstone Basin]
[All adventurers can choose to join the war Either side can obtain corresponding rewards by completing war missions]
[Adventurer guilds can collectively participate in the war to increase their reputation. 】
Helot paid a little attention to the information channel.
Players responded very enthusiastically to this war incident. After all, players play games for fun, and war is a great fun.
As for why Dorotea conquered her subordinates, few players care.
Seeing that there was not much useful information in the chat channel, Herot closed the channel and went straight to the vampire castle.
The Vampire Castle is already in a state of war. The Vampire Guards have tightly sealed the castle and nearby neighborhoods. Herot went through several checks before entering the castle.
Then I got the notification.
"The Marquis invites you to a meeting."
Helot wanted to see Master Laem first, but since he was stopped, let's go to the meeting first.
It’s the same conference room.
Dorotea and her generals gathered around the map in the middle to discuss the tactics for the conquest of the Mud and Stone Basin.
Herot, a human, suddenly broke in and immediately attracted the attention of all the vampires.
Dorotea introduced enthusiastically: "This is my newly appointed special affairs adviser, and it was he who proposed the strategy to conquer the Mud and Stone Basin.
Bone Broken Advisor, come to me Come here, I want to hear your tactical suggestions for this war."
Dorotea has absolute authority among the vampire community in Scorched Earth City, so although the vampires were a little surprised by the arrival of a human, they were still surprised. He still made way for Helot.
When Herot came to the map, Dorotea ordered a vampire general to re-explain the battle plan they had just discussed.
