Lord Game: I Have 100 Million Talents-Chapter 165 - 106: Magic-Modified Necromancer! A Miniature Undead Calamity
At that point, they had to enter a higher-level barracks to undergo Unit Promotion before they could break through their own power ceiling.
In contrast, the Native Creatures of the Lord World didn’t have this problem.
They didn’t have to worry about such things.
Even if they didn’t meet the promotion requirements, they could continue to train in their barracks, constantly honing their Combat Skills and weapon proficiency. This would improve their "hidden soft power" until they became an Elite Unit capable of challenging soldiers of a higher tier.
Back then, Qin Feng’s villager army couldn’t kill the Ratman Warriors from the Poison Arrow tribe.
That was because his Level 0 regular soldiers were up against several Elite Units from the Level 1 tier, which naturally made them incredibly difficult to kill.
It was worth noting that...
The basic Fire Foxes he had first acquired had terrible combat effectiveness and poor overall Attributes.
They could only be considered cannon fodder, on par with Skeleton Soldiers.
However, their evolutionary potential was extremely high.
Starting with the Awakened Fire Fox, they were already Elite Units among Tier 2 soldiers, to say nothing of the Flame Foxes that could be used for the Self-destructive Dragon strategy...
The last skill, Kadang’s Secret Technique, was god-tier.
Not only did it increase Qin Feng’s maximum Magic Power, but it also reduced all his Casting Costs, allowing him to cast more Magic Skills during a large-scale war.
At this stage...
Large-scale battles were becoming increasingly frequent.
Qin Feng’s need for Magic Power was also growing daily.
If his "Bloodthirsty" Talent didn’t automatically balance his various Panel Attributes, he would have started dumping all his points into his Spirit Attribute long ago to frantically stack his maximum Magic Power.
The value of this skill was self-evident.
...
After getting a handle on all the Necromancer’s traits, Qin Feng immediately raised his hand and cast "Awakening the Dead," summoning fifty Skeleton Warriors to block the main entrance to the room.
As the countdown ended, twenty Zero-star (Red) Wandering Soul Strikers rushed in from the castle stairs in the distance. They immediately began to slaughter the Skeleton Warriors meant to draw their fire.
With the Void Creatures’ attention completely drawn to the front-line Skeleton Warriors, Qin Feng and the Sielo Knight lay in wait at the rear. They seized the opening to unleash a continuous stream of attacks, cutting down the Wandering Soul Strikers one by one.
[Battle Over!]
[Your Necromancer Level has increased to 2! Your Four-dimensional Attributes have increased accordingly!]
[Your Life Value has been permanently increased by "Bloodthirsty"! Influenced by the "Sigmar’s Blessing" skill! Current value: 5,465!]
[Your current personal rating is: Zero-star (Red), Early Stage]
[All enemies in this battle were mindless Void Creatures. You cannot capture any of them!]
[You are within the Lost Secret Realm and cannot be observed by the Destiny Deities. You cannot obtain any Divine Chosen Spoils!]
[Your "Book of the Dead" skill has activated! Two Skeleton Warriors have revived at your summons! They will fight bloody battles for you! Until Eternity!]
[You have slain 20 living beings and absorbed 20 points of Dark Energy from their decaying corpses!]
Dark Energy was a special resource from the Middle-earth Warhammer Module, primarily used to promote high-level combat units within the Vampire Culture and cover their daily upkeep costs.
However...
After being ’magically modified’ by the Lord World...
...this resource had been transformed into the promotion cost for low-level skeleton cannon fodder, allowing him to directly increase their Soldier Level.
Based on the information he had so far...
...the only way to obtain Dark Energy was by slaying living creatures.
This was completely different from Gold Coins.
Besides looting them from kills, Gold Coins could also be mined or acquired by trading with Native Powers.
’I don’t know...’
’...if this is a good thing or a bad thing...’
As he was pondering this, the second wave of Void Creatures attacked. Once again, they were the extremely fast but fragile Wandering Soul Strikers, so Qin Feng and his companion had no trouble dealing with them.
After the battle ended.
Qin Feng raised a total of 3 Skeleton Warriors from the 25 fading corpses of the Void Creatures and obtained 25 points of Dark Energy.
Then, the third wave of enemies attacked. It consisted of 30 Void Creatures, including 5 Wandering Soul Fighters with incredible Attack and Defense Attributes but slow movement speed.
Normally...
...he would kite them, slowly wearing them down.
But right now, Qin Feng had to hold his ground in the top room of the Black Castle. With almost no room to employ kiting tactics, his only option was to face them head-on.
Fortunately, the Sielo Knight’s two Divine Gift skills were so overpowered that, aside from taking out a few temporarily summoned Skeleton Warriors, the five Wandering Soul Fighters posed no real threat.
Before the fourth wave began...
...Qin Feng’s "Awakening the Dead" skill came off cooldown.
He immediately raised his hand and cast the spell. A new batch of Skeleton Warriors rose at his command, 80 in total, up from the previous 50.
This was mainly because his Necromancer Level had reached 4.
This allowed him to receive a bonus to his summoning count from his "Necromancy Theory Mastery" skill.
However...
...the Skeleton Warriors’ overall combat effectiveness hadn’t changed.
Presumably, his Necromancer Level wasn’t high enough yet to improve the "Undead Soldier Tier."
’Impressive.’
’I can summon 10 more Skeleton Warriors for each level.’
’So at Level 10, I’ll be able to summon 140 Skeleton Warriors at once. And the skill’s cooldown is just over two minutes, while the Magic Power cost isn’t too outrageous.’
’As long as I have enough Magic Power, I could have more than sixteen hundred Skeleton Warriors fighting for me at the same time during a large-scale war.’
