Chapter 161 Paladin
Tahan came mainly to guard Xu Lai, and the number of enemies he killed was not very large. Secondly, the amount of experience required to upgrade from level 7 to level 8 is estimated to be huge.
In addition, his level 7 is the result of Xu Lai's special care. He was lucky enough to advance in the last battle when he returned to Qingfeng Town. It is estimated that it will be very difficult to advance to the next level.
Xu Lai and the others collected gold coins on the battlefield for several hours, and they were able to fully afford the upgrade fees for the 18 cavalry.
Seven heroes, each advancement is worth 2,000 gold coins, and the total of 7 is 14,000 gold coins.
Five level 6 knights cost 4,000 gold, and four level 6 heroes cost 4,000 gold. This removes 20,000 taels.
The most important thing is the promotion of the two level 6 knights. They were originally promoted to knights, each worth 1600.
However, this time he advanced, Xu Lai unexpectedly had one more choice.
“Discover soldiers who can be upgraded:
1. It costs 1,600 gold coins to upgrade a level 6 knight to a level 7 knight.
2. Spend 2,000 gold coins to upgrade the 6th level knight to the 7th level paladin. ”
There is an additional paladin option, which has not appeared before when Xu Lai advanced to Tahan.
Tahan has just advanced recently. If we talk about now and a few days ago, If there is any difference, Xu Lai is now the nominal leader of the Temple Knights
Count Aini and the grassland nobles have amassed nearly 20,000 cavalry, even if the recruited troops are excluded. There are still more than 10,000 trainee knights and rangers, all of whom are at least level 4.
However, with so many knights, rangers, and many great knights and heroes, Xu Lai was stunned. See any paladin outside the temple garrison
Whether it's recruiting troops or free knights, there are none.
Combined with his previous advancement experience, the result is self-evident. It must be because of his current temporary status that he has obtained the qualification to advance to the Paladin.
From the perspective of gold coin cost, Paladin and Hero are the same price, which is 400 gold coins more expensive than Grand Knight.
It is equivalent to buying more than one level 4 unit at full price or upgrading level 5 shooters, infantry, etc. to level 6.
So, although both are at level 7, the Paladin is definitely stronger than the ordinary Knight.
There is no doubt about this. Although the knight's armor is light, its defensive power is no worse than that of the knight. It also has an advantage of speed and long range. The knight just has a more advanced shield.
However, if he upgrades, Xu Lai is worried about conflicts with the temple, which is currently in its honeymoon period. After all, other nobles will definitely have the opportunity to get the Paladin.
But on second thought, it is precisely because we are in the honeymoon period with the temple now that we can take the opportunity to try it out.
Anyway, if the temple does not allow it, firstly, he did not know it before, and secondly, the temple has not made such a request to him. As the saying goes, the ignorant is not to blame. You can't take Xu Lai's guess as his own. Evidence.
Just do it. For a while, Xu Lai didn't even care about his own upgrade specialization, and directly spent 4,000 gold coins to upgrade the two knights.
[Paladin]: A level 7 holy knight unit blessed by the God of War. Each person consumes 2 units of food per day, mana value: 1000.
Feature 1: Blessing of the God of War, you can release some sacred spells by consuming mana during combat.
Spell list: 1. Lay on Hand, which can heal the selected target unit (including yourself) and instantly restore 100 health points. Mana consumption: 50 points. The casting interval is 3 minutes.
2. Punishment, which can cause 150% holy damage to enemy targets (ignores physical defense and spell shield, cannot penetrate holy shield, holy armor and other invincible skills, can be affected by special effects such as resistance) Effect, when the attack target is evil targets such as demons, undead, dungeons, etc., the damage is increased to 300%), mana consumption: 50 points, casting interval is 3 minutes.
3. Blessing, you can release blessings to yourself or friendly units. If attacked by the blessed, the defense will be increased by 10 points, the speed will be increased by 1 point, the mana consumption is 100, the blessing lasts for 3 hours, and the casting interval is 1 hour.
4. Holy Shield: Release an invincible holy shield on yourself. While the holy shield lasts, you are immune to any damage (can only be released on yourself). It consumes 300 mana. The holy shield lasts for one minute and can only be released once a day.
Characteristic 2: Paladin, when the paladin appears in the team, it can dispel the fear of evil, and the morale of all friendly units +1, (the effects of multiple paladin do not overlap, the highest value is taken).
Characteristic 3: Charge, after use, the movement speed is increased by 150%, the physical consumption of the mount is increased by 100%, every 20 meters moved, the damage of the knight's followers is increased by 10%, the upper limit is 250% (can be superimposed on the captain's specialties)< br>
Characteristic 4: Knight skills, knights have mastered various skills, and can freely switch defense, attack and other postures (follower characteristics, attributes are slightly improved)
Characteristic 5, heavy armor, paladin Heavy armor can be worn at any time and physical damage taken is reduced by 15%.
Compared with the 7th level great knight, the paladin has two more characteristics, one is the God of War's blessing that can cast spells, and the other is the effect of the paladin.
The latter is nothing, after all, there is only a little morale, and it cannot be superimposed. One has the same effect as having countless.
The former is a great enhancement to the Paladin, which is equivalent to giving the Paladin four more abilities: defense, healing, damage, and blessing.
Looking at the Great Knight, only a few of its original characteristics have been slightly strengthened, the charge bonus is greater, and the damage limit has been increased to 300%.
In addition to abilities, the equipment of the Paladin and the Grand Knight are also quite different. Knights and high knights use spears that are more than two meters long and can be used with one or both hands, while paladins use heavy lances that are more than 3 meters long.
The weapon in his hand was also replaced by a sledgehammer that can be used with both hands.
Of course, with the power of the Paladin, just like the Grand Knight, he can use two-handed weapons with one hand and wear a shield with the other hand.
In order to test the reaction of the temple, Xu Lai advanced the two paladins and arranged for them to stand guard at the door. Others should eat and rest.
Dil and Giselle were not stationed at the Temple Knights' camp, but were seconded by the ranger at the fortress.
The excuse Kate used was that she was interested in the long-range capabilities of Xu Lai's troops. Xu Lai was also worried that his troops would end badly if they fell into Aini's hands, so he agreed to the secondment.
Pierce's tent is spacious enough, but Xu Lai is not used to sleeping with anyone other than his own woman, so Tahan and Yan Feng can only squeeze in the small tent next to it.
After he was busy with upgrading, the only thing left was for him to upgrade himself. Upgrading to 3 levels in a row and gaining more than half of his experience was Xu Lai’s biggest gain from this battle.
The third level gave Xu Lai three attributes, namely 2 points of strength and 1 point of constitution, which increased Xu Lai's strength to 20 points and his constitution to exactly 20 points.
Because he received training in the mercenary camp and defeated three intermediate fighters in succession in the arena, he received two reward opportunities, both of which allowed him to choose the strength attribute.
According to the knight's career plan, his main attribute is physique, his secondary attribute is strength, then his secondary attribute is agility, and finally his intelligence and spirit.
Unfortunately, when Xu Lai challenged a senior fighter at that time, he lost the first battle and failed to obtain subsequent rewards.
Like scholars, the rewards in the wild arena are also divided into 4 levels. Each level of reward requires Xu Lai to complete the corresponding challenge.
For example, the first level reward is a fixed strength attribute point of 1 point, which requires defeating 3 junior fighters in a row, while the second level reward is a free attribute point of 1 point, which requires defeating 3 intermediate fighters in a row.
Xu Lai doesn't know the rewards for the next two levels, but they will definitely not be less than 1 attribute point. They need to defeat high-level fighters and champion fighters respectively.
The good news is that there is no penalty for failure in the challenge. Xu Lai can stay in the arena as long as he does not get the ultimate reward.
And the speed of practicing skills in the arena is almost as good as 3 times the effect of practicing in the training ground.
After all, the training ground is training, and the arena is a real duel. Except that you will not die, all the feelings are exactly the same as reality.
The bad news is that the skill levels of high-level fighters are very high, and they are born specifically for fighting, and all fighting skills are only suitable for solo challenges.
As far as the current situation is concerned, Xu Lai is still not sure of defeating the senior fighters, and the success rate of defeating three consecutive fighters is even lower.
Of course, these are all digressions. At least during this period, Xu Lai will not have time to challenge the arena again.
After upgrading, the most important thing is naturally the improvement of specialization.
The first specialization given to Xu Lai surprised him.
[Elementary Learning Ability]: Increase the experience gained by the hero by 5%.
Note: In addition to normal combat, the learning ability is only effective for outdoor buildings or facilities that increase experience such as stone tablets, treasure chest experience, sirens, and altars. It is also effective for wisdom trees, scholars, Pandora's Box, etc. that directly increase the level. Invalid outdoor structures or facilities.
Although 5% is not much, judging from Xu Lai's current level, it is probably already an astronomical figure.
Not to mention anything else, if he had acquired this learning ability before, I am afraid that after this battle is settled, Xu Lai may directly upgrade to 4 levels.
But relatively speaking, Xu Lai has one less fighting ability than others.
Recently becoming the leader of the Temple Knights, Xu Lai has been studying various information almost every night. Although the focus is on the information on the stronghold camp, hero information is also the focus of Xu Lai's attention.
As mentioned in the information, heroes can master up to 12 specializations.
Each specialization has 5 levels in total, from beginner to intermediate, advanced, to master and ultimate, also called master level.
Taking into account the two initial specializations of each hero, if a hero can reach level 60, it will basically be complete.
Of course, the information also mentioned that the original leaders of the human race raised their specialization to the legendary god level.
But no one knows how it was upgraded, and what effects the god-level specialization has, or even if it is known, there is no record.
Xu Lai did the math himself, leadership, archery, offense, resistance, diplomacy, logistics, eagle eye, defense and the earth magic forced on him by that damn smelly witch , which already has 9 specializations.
He has even learned earth magic, and today he has seen the effect of magic, so he must learn the wisdom magic that has appeared in the past.
