Chapter 39: New Heroes, William and Vivian
One piece of orange-tier equipment costs 200 million gold coins and 100 magic cores.
Lin Chuan obtained the summoning scroll.
This price is slightly higher than the market price.
However, this scroll is exactly what Lin Chuan urgently needs; he doesn't have much gold coins or magic cores right now.
【Targeted Recruitment Scroll】: Can summon an all-around hero with balanced stats of 80 in domestic affairs, foreign affairs, military, and martial prowess.
For special units, 60 is passing, 80 is good, 90 is excellent, and 100 is perfect.
Arthur's initial stats were only 75.
"recruit."
After the scroll was torn open, a new message popped up in the Lord System.
"Ding-dong."
"Recruiting a new unit, William."
"Recruiting a new unit, Vivian."
By using up the previous scrolls, two new special units appeared in the territory.
"Greetings, Your Excellency."
William is male, Vivian is female.
William's initial talent is mastery of two-handed weapons, making him adept at using various long weapons.
The initial riding skill value is 80 points.
He was clearly a natural-born cavalry commander.
Vivian's talent is ice elemental affinity, making her a control-oriented mage.
Level up the two new heroes to LV10.
William has gained new skills: Slash, Sweep, Chain Thrust, Breaking Formation Aura, Assault Knight Training, Basic Multi-Unit Command, and Basic All-Round Commander.
"Vivian has acquired new skills: Ice Spike, Summon Ice Elemental, Ice Shield, and Ice Aura. She has also received Ice Apprentice Training, Basic Magic Analysis, and Basic Magic Rune Analysis."
William's skills were primarily suited for mounted combat.
Among them, the chain thrust is the most lethal, capable of attacking the target ten times in an instant.
Breaking Formation Aura: Passive effect, for each soldier who dies in battle, the user's attributes are boosted once, up to a maximum of one hundred times, and soldiers can be boosted ten times. Active effect, when more than half of the soldiers have died, the user and the soldiers instantly gain a boost of 200 layers.
"The formation-breaking aura has an absurd effect."
"A hundredfold increase."
"He instantly became Superman."
William trained his guards to be charioteers, armored, armed with long weapons, capable of both close combat and charging into battle.
"The commander of the lancers has been found."
However, William's greatest strength lies in commanding multiple branches of the armed forces, making him an all-around commander.
With these two skills, you can help yourself to independently defend a stronghold.
"William's strength is only at the first level. He needs to complete the second level as soon as possible and awaken his battle qi in order to ensure his safety."
Then Vivian's skills.
The first few are common ice spells that can cause effects such as slowing down or freezing.
Frost Aura: Passive effect: Allied units within a 300-range radius gain a layer of ice shield protection. Active effect: Targets in a designated area instantly gain ice shield protection.
This ice shield can block damage, and it can also explode to cause damage, making it very useful.
Of the subsequent skills, ice magic apprentice training is the most useful.
Lin Chuan sent Vivian to the magic laboratory to train apprentices with Victor.
We strive to build a dual-elemental magic legion as soon as possible.
Just as Lin Chuan was checking their attributes.
Rhea walked over.
"Your Lordship"
"I successfully changed jobs."
"We just discovered something outside."
The Eagle Eye Messenger job change scroll brought back from the secret realm allowed Raya to complete his second job change.
While acquiring the Black Iron Aura, Raya also gained the skill Omniscient Eye.
In addition to having night vision, it can also use the Eagle Eye skill to see movement over a wider area, including cloaked targets.
After completing the advanced level.
Raya used this skill to check outside the territory.
Surprisingly, in the darkness, they spotted an orc wielding a short sword, lurking in the shadows, eyeing their territory with predatory intent.
"An assassin capable of stealth."
Lin Chuan immediately guessed the orc's identity.
"They didn't come in."
"Just observing from the outside."
"Did they detect the developing dust?"
It's not impossible.
"My lord."
"Should I do it?"
"This orc is not very strong."
"Um."
Assassin units cannot survive.
Heroes can be resurrected after being killed.
Lords are different; once they die, they're gone.
We followed Rhea to the city wall.
Ray pointed into the darkness, which Lin Chuan could not see at all.
However, as Rhea drew his longbow...
This orange bow was also obtained from the Secret Realm, and Rayark gained its power with this weapon.
He used his fighting spirit again.
The arrow pierced through space at a speed invisible to the naked eye.
"Do~"
A continuous sound of something penetrating wood.
Finally, it was nailed to a tree.
And that was exactly where the orc assassin stood.
A trickle of blood flowed down from the tree.
The torch was dropped, illuminating the large tree.
Lin Chuan saw the appearance of the orc who had been shot to death.
"Catman?"
His head was pierced by an arrow, and his body was still convulsing.
They sent out several militiamen to bring back the orcs who had been shot dead.
The cat-person has been confirmed dead.
Its claws are coated with deadly poison.
"The orc assassins are probably an entire race."
"Defending against it is not easy."
"I need a defensive tower that can be used for a long time and break through stealth."
Lin Chuan thought to himself.
At this time.
The lord system popped up a message.
"Ding-dong."
"Arthur slays the gnoll chieftain and successfully breaches the gnoll's lair."
"You have obtained 1 White Dragon Egg".
"Obtained Nest Treasure Chest *1".
"Black Tower Dragon Nest faction hatred +500".
"The Dragon's Nest has triggered a retaliatory event, sending its avengers to your territory."
Before attacking the gnoll camp.
Lin Chuan had already prepared himself mentally.
He thought it was just some gnolls attacking his territory at night.
Anyway, the orcs are coming too.
Even if one more comes, we'll still kill them.
Lin Chuan never expected that behind this gnoll's lair was a new force in a forbidden area, and that it was related to dragons.
"I wonder how strong this Black Tower Dragon Nest is."
"Will the Avengers they send be very strong?"
The enemy is shrouded in mystery, and there's always some apprehension about the unknown.
But Lin Chuan knew that such emotions would only waste time.
Regardless of the enemy's strength, the most crucial factor is still oneself.
"We'll talk about it when we get there."
Lin Chuan thought to himself.
At this time.
Legions began to emerge from the teleportation array as they set out on their expedition.
They brought back spoils in more than a dozen horse-drawn carriages.
Immediately afterwards, new messages appeared on the Lord system.
It comes from the Lord of Zhouyi.
"Boss Lin, I saw it, your troops are too strong."
"That's a gnoll's den."
"They took care of it so easily."
Lin Chuan didn't have time to go see it.
He has more important things to do.
There's another notification message from the lord system.
"Ding-dong."
"Break through the gnoll's lair, the quest item (Burning Valley) will be activated, allowing you to enter the new instance, Howling Valley."
......
Snow Wolf Town is considered a beginner's paradise.
The map inside is neither complicated nor large.
The background story is about the war between the Snow Wolf Territory and the Goblins.
Wailing Valley, however, is different; it is an advanced war instance.
A brief introduction to this hidden realm.
It is a war between a coalition of human lords and a dragon's nest.
Its area is ten times that of Snow Wolf Town.
It features a large number of new factions and new missions, and its resources are ten times that of Snow Wolf Town.
Normally, a lord needs to clear Snow Wolf Town, which means killing the Snow Wolf Lord and the Goblin Chieftain, before they can obtain the Secret Realm Token.
Lin Chuan obtained it ahead of time, which means he took a shortcut.
Similarly, the Howling Valley is more dangerous than the Snow Wolf Secret Realm.
The indigenous forces inside are more aggressive.
And the easy mode is gone; we start with the normal mode.
The distinction between the rulers of this civilization and other civilizations is no longer made.
In other words, once you enter, you will encounter the lord of a foreign civilization.
The "Difficult Secret Realm" difficulty level no longer differentiates between those of equal strength; once inside, you may encounter exceptionally powerful alien lords.
The Nightmare difficulty dungeons are even more outrageous. Once inside, both the human and dragon factions are at their peak, and the only way to escape is to defeat the other side.
There are also more supplies, based on the information about the secret realm that Lin Chuan saw.
To upgrade a level 10 lord, one must enter the Wailing Valley secret realm to complete quests and obtain resources that can only be produced in the valley before continuing to upgrade.
"High difficulty."
"Specific supplies".
Lin Chuan put the secret realm token into the warehouse.
"Go in later."
"At present, Snow Wolf Town can meet the demand."
Lin Chuan then turned his gaze to the other spoils Arthur had brought back.
The white dragon egg was the most eye-catching among them.
