Global Lords: Start with halving recruitment costs

Chapter 125 Hero Trials and Quest Stage [-] Rewards
The drop rate of Bronze Rank and Black Iron Rank Advanced Cards is almost maintained at one hundred to one.

With so many advanced cards, although Guo Xiuwen couldn't revive the dozen or so Bronze-rank soldiers he lost, they could train him more Bronze-rank soldiers.

After the prompt sound ended, Guo Xiuwen still did not receive other system rewards.

He didn't care about that.

Because after his territory was upgraded, two other rewards also arrived as promised and appeared in front of him.

[Ding, the third step of the hero's road: baptism!Finish! 】

[Alia's all attributes +3! 】

[The hero's road is all completed, and all the basic attributes of Alia are +1! 】

[Open the last step of hero promotion: Trial!

Requirements: Alicia enters the trial space, completes the hero's test, and obtains the approval of ancient heroes, then she can be promoted to a real hero.

Hero trials do not limit heroes to bring soldiers to help.

Hero trials can often be tried three times. After three failures, soldiers will permanently lose hope of being promoted to heroes. 】

[Hero trials are open, and the completion time is unlimited. The longer the time, the more soldiers you lead, and the less benefits you will get after the hero advances! 】

Guo Xiuwen's originally very happy face became stiff at first, then showed his face again, then became distressed, and finally returned to calm.

He originally thought that after the baptism of the hero's path was completed, Alia should be promoted to a hero.

But now it seems that he still thinks too much.

The hero's road is over, but there is still a trial to be completed.

More importantly, although there is no time limit for this trial, you can even lead soldiers to help.

But the final reminder is also very clear. If the delay is longer and more soldiers are brought into the trial space, then even if Aliya succeeds in the final promotion, the benefits she will get will be less.

Because the number of trials is limited, and if you fail three times, you will permanently lose the hope of being promoted to the hero.

This is obviously a multiple choice question.

It depends on whether he wants to choose a safe way to obtain a hero with average strength, or to give it a go and win a powerful hero.

Guo Xiuwen didn't think too much about it.

Because the system prompted so many, but did not tell him where the trial space was.

He himself thought of a suitable place, which was the trial space when he encountered the natural altar last time.

It's just that the natural altar appears randomly, and after visiting it once, it takes four weeks to visit it for the second time.

It's only been a week since he visited the nature altar, and it's still too early to go in.

But soon, Guo Xiuwen was slapped in the face.

[Ding, the first step in regaining lost ground has been completed! 】

[Complete the first step of regaining lost ground within a week, evaluation: S!

Reward settlement in progress.]

[The reward settlement is completed, please choose three of the following rewards:

One: Obtain [-] units of basic resources (optional types), [-] units of rare resources (optional types);

Two: The lord himself gets the elite template bonus;

Three: Worship the natural altar once (do not share time with regular worship);
Four: Obtain a large-scale basic resource point (optional type), a medium-sized rare resource point (optional type);

Five: One Bronze Rank Barracks;
Six: A compound barracks synthetic stone;
Seven: A unique building in the forest camp.

Good guy!
This reward!
He couldn't help but open his mouth, "It's a good guy!"
Because every reward is enough to make people salivate.

The first reward is equivalent to a full 20 units of resources, and you can choose it yourself.

In other words, he can choose [-] units of food.

As for rare resources, that's not to mention.

Whether it is upgrading the territory or recruiting soldiers, it is essential.

A thousand units of resources are enough to squander for a long time.

And the second reward made his eyes shine even more.

At the very beginning, he was thinking, since soldiers of the same level are divided into three templates: ordinary, elite, and leader.

In theory, the lord should be like this too, especially when he was sure that he was just rewarded, it was just an ordinary-level template, and he began to yearn for the possibility of other templates.

But in the many harvests before, he didn't get the slightest possibility of improving the template.

The only chance is to upgrade the territory, but upgrading the territory is only to increase the level.

How could I know that I met here now.

Guo Xiuwen saw the difference between elite templates and ordinary templates in soldiers.

Although elite templates have the same attributes as ordinary soldiers at the beginning.

But no matter in terms of attribute bonuses after upgrade, higher potential (upgrade) than ordinary soldiers, and the ability to master one more skill than ordinary soldiers, there are obvious differences between the two sides.

As an ordinary-level unit, Guo Xiuwen met the hope of improving his template, so he chose this reward without any hesitation.

【Elite template loading】

The system responded quickly, and Guo Xiuwen once again felt the warm current in his body.

But the difference from the previous few times is that whether it is upgrading or improving one's own rank, the warm current is very comfortable.

However, the warmth of the elite template this time made Guo Xiuwen howl in pain in an instant.

"what--"

At this moment, Guo Xiuwen deeply understood the idiom: What kind of pain is it that hurts to the bone.

He only felt that his body, from blood to bone marrow, and everything else, was transformed by an inexplicable force in an instant.

And unlike before, when the warm current came and went quickly, this time the pain became unusually long.

What makes Guo Xiuwen especially unbearable is that his own thinking seems to be within the scope of warm current transformation.

So the pain, which was clearly enough to make him pass out, was felt more deeply under the modified thinking, making the pain more intense.

So he couldn't help rolling on the ground.

"Lord Lord!"

"Are you OK!"

Aliya walked out of the elemental tower, hugged him who was rolling, and then hurriedly cast a healing spell on him.

A faint cool breath came from Alia, and Guo Xiuwen suddenly felt a slight sense of relief in his body.

This breath also made him temporarily suppress the pain.

"Take me to the hot spring!"

Gritting his teeth and saying these words, he almost rolled to the ground in pain again.

Hearing his words, Aliya blushed, but let go of some worries.

Then without hesitation, she looked at Guo Xiuwen, who was so painful that his veins were bulging, and carried him into the hot spring. This time, she didn't even take a bath.

After entering the hot spring and being wrapped in warm water, Guo Xiuwen really relieved a lot.

Then suddenly he saw Alicia take off her coat of her own accord.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say that he didn't actually have that kind of thought.

But in the end he didn't speak.

Maybe doing that kind of thing can really distract yourself from the pain.

1 minute later.

If it wasn't so painful that he couldn't lift his hand, he would definitely slap himself.

Because under Alia's clumsy activities, he found that both his left and right hands were too painful to lift up, and the middle one was naturally the same.

So under Aliya's inexplicable gaze, he spoke with the help of the soothing hot spring.

"I just want you to take me to the hot spring!"

"Oh!"

After Aliya knew that she had misunderstood him, she didn't despise him, but leaned on his chest actively.

The two soaked in the hot spring quietly without talking.

After an unknown amount of time, Guo Xiuwen felt that the pain in his body was gradually going away. He knew that the matter should be over.

[Ding, the template is loaded! 】

[Get ten basic free attributes to complete! 】

[Please choose three of the following five skills as your own skills:
[-]: Guardian tree (summons two tree guards)
Two: Asylum (call the power of the forest, improve the armor and attack power of yourself or soldiers)

Three: Moisturize (heal your own soldiers within a certain range, and purify their debuff status; cause a lot of real damage to the enemy, and dispel their buff status.)
Four: Fighting (after using it, the more you fight, the more courageous you become. After killing an enemy, you can recover a certain proportion of the target's maximum health, and increase your own attack power and attack speed.)
Five: Contempt (Increase a certain amount of armor and attack power, actively attract the enemy's hatred, and reduce the target's certain attack power.)]

Guo Xiuwen took a deep breath. Under the extreme pain, he already felt that a steady stream of power was gradually emerging from his body.

And the first reward after loading the elite template is to add ten points to the free attribute, and the addition is the basic attribute.

However, Guo Xiuwen was not anxious about this, instead he looked at the choice of the next skill.

He was still wondering why, as a lord, he didn't have any skills except for choosing a talent when he first arrived.

At first, when he got a fireball skill book, he thought that if the lord wanted to get the skill, it seemed that he needed to take the path of getting the skill book.

I didn't know that after loading the template, I found out that it wasn't that there was nothing, but because the template was too low, I couldn't grasp it.

Regarding which skill he chooses, Guo Xiuwen is not careless.

He carefully checked the five skills.

The first skill is very similar to Aliya's Summon Treant, but the difference is that he can summon two heads, and the opponent can only summon one.

The second protection skill and the fifth contempt skill actually overlap.

Both skills increase armor and attack power, but the difference is that contempt also has a mocking effect, and can also reduce the enemy's attack power.

Because he hasn't chosen yet, the detailed effect of the skill is not yet known.

However, according to Guo Xiuwen's guess, since the protection skill has only two characteristics, the bonus should be higher.

And despise the dispersion of skills and characteristics, then there should be fewer single characteristics.

But no matter what, he will definitely only choose one of these two skills.

Then there is the second skill nourishing, which is obviously a group healing and attack skill.

With such a good skill, he quickly decided that the opponent was one of the three skills he chose.

Even though he already has the healing skill of rejuvenation, nourishing is a combination of group healing + buff + debuff + group attack.

The fourth belligerent skill is also excellent. Killing an enemy restores health and increases attack power and attack speed.

This is equivalent to getting stronger and stronger.

For a while, Guo Xiuwen didn't know which skill to choose.

First of all, he didn't want to give up the skill of summoning the tree man first, because the benefits of summoning skills don't need to be said much, just look at the Cerberus skill that played a decisive role in this battle, and you know the benefits of summoning skills.

So after studying it again, Guo Xiuwen could only reluctantly give up two skills that increase armor and attack power.

In the end, he chose three skills: guarding the tree, nourishing, and fighting.

And the three skills he chose did not disappoint him after showing specific effects.

[Guardian Tree LV1]: Enlighten two giant trees to evolve into treant guards of the same level as the lord. The treant guards will gain the attribute of the lord (Charm/10) bonus. The summoned treant can exist for 2 hours. After death Disappears early and can be summoned once a day.

Every time a level is raised, the number of tree guards that can be summoned increases by 1, and the time increases by 0.5H.

[Moisturizing LV1]: Heal all soldiers within 2x2 square meters, and purify their debuff status; cause a lot of real damage to the enemy, and dispel their buff status.

The skill lasts for 10 seconds, and the cooling time is 5 minutes.

For each level up, the skill range increases by 1x1 square meters, and the cooldown time decreases by 30 seconds.

[Warrior LV1]: After killing an enemy, restore 1% of the maximum HP of the target killed by the lord, increase 1 points of attack power and 1 points of attack speed.

For each level up, looting HP increases by 1%, attack power +1, and attack speed +1.

For Guo Xiuwen, the effects of these three skills can be regarded as significant for his own improvement.

And what surprised him the most was naturally its warlike nature.

This skill has no upper limit to the accumulation of attack power and attack speed. The only limit is the killing interval.

It is precisely because of this interruption that he understands that the characteristics of belligerence determine that only large-scale battles can be effective if the enemy they face cannot be too strong.

In the usual small-scale battles and when facing powerful enemies, he might just be shelved, but he still doesn't regret choosing this skill.

Because this is a magical skill that can be turned against the wind if it is well operated.

Especially thinking about entering the trial space and helping Alia in the hero trial.

As for the second reward choice for completing the first stage of regaining the loss, Guo Xiuwen has already decided in his heart.

[It is detected that the target has advanced to Bronze.

There are two options:

One: Whether to directly complete the settlement of attributes;
Two: Consume double experience and complete the race levels that have not been upgraded under the first two elite templates.

Note: For lords under the elite template, the highest racial level can be raised to LV15. 】

Another thing that excited him.

If the level is completed, it means that he has gained another eleven attribute points and eleven skill points.

It's just that if you want to complete these eleven levels, the experience you need to consume is also a terrifying number.
