Global Lords: Start with halving recruitment costs

Chapter 129 Raising the Professional Level of the Demon Warlock
"The highest combat effectiveness of the vanguard is a silver-ranked leader-level grudge leader."

When Lucien heard him inquiring about the enemy's situation, he first told him the enemy's highest combat effectiveness.

"Silver rank leader rank!"

Guo Xiuwen clicked his tongue a little.

In order to kill Saka, the leader of the Bronze Rank, he relied on the Arrow Tower and the Element Tower to sneak attack, and then killed the opponent by surprise.

Now we have to deal with another silver-rank leader-level enemy.

"Then there should be ten silver-ranked headless horsemen. By the way, the headless horsemen belong to the cavalry, and the bone horses they sit on are also silver-ranked."

Lucien then told him about the enemies he needed to face.

Guo Xiuwen already regretted that he was too big to lead the Golden Tiger and Gray Wolf to fight.

"Then there are five silver-rank grudges! They are an upgraded version of ghosts!"

Good guy, counting the headless horseman + bone horse, do you still want to fight?

"The rest are Bronze-rank soldiers as the main force, and the number is probably less than [-]."

"As for the enemies of black iron and ordinary rank, it must be at least tens of thousands."

Lucien's words were very relaxed, but Guo Xiuwen didn't know what to say for a while.

In the previous territorial offensive and defensive battles, he had so many soldiers and so many resources, and it was so difficult.

There are not that many soldiers now, they only have some summoning scrolls, and the resources are not as good as last time, but the enemies are stronger.

"At present, I can only send five forest guardians and one thousand treants to you, and the other soldiers cannot move for the time being!"

Lucien finally added another sentence.

What is a twist, what is a surprise!

It's a fucking surprise!

It turned out that there was support, and it was supported by a thousand bronze-rank soldiers and five silver-rank soldiers!

The heart that Guo Xiuwen had just raised fell into place in an instant.

Good guy!
Really good guy, a thousand tree people!
Guo Xiuwen had seen the tree man's sledgehammer, and the opponent was not weak in the bronze ranks.

With these supports, he was instantly full of confidence.

Even without the help of the Arrow Tower and the Element Tower, he can still deal with those skeleton soldiers.

"They are all excellent soldiers who have been with me for many years. If possible, try not to treat them as expendables."

Seeing that Guo Xiuwen didn't speak, Lucien changed his tone and became sad.

"Don't worry, I will try my best to take them out together and bring them back together."

Guo Xiuwen immediately made a promise to the other party, then thought about it, and asked one more question.

"By the way, before I entered, I got a reminder that the more soldiers I carry, the less benefits Alia will receive after being promoted to a hero, but will the soldiers I summoned be counted in this evaluation? "

Hearing his question, Lucien smiled.

"Don't worry, as long as the number does not exceed fifty, no matter what their strength is, it will not affect the evaluation, and you can still have three chances to ask for help, and I can support you with a certain amount of strength each time.

But every request for help will affect Aliya's evaluation after she advances. "

Hearing this, Guo Xiuwen breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course, the number of summoning scrolls in his hand is more than fifty.

If you didn't ask clearly just now and summoned more soldiers, it would actually affect Alia's evaluation.

Now that we know this, we can summon soldiers according to the situation.

Guo Xiuwen didn't hesitate at the moment, and directly used the summoning scroll of the Headless Horseman + Bone Horse.

After a while, the opponent revealed his figure.

Compared to the five headless horsemen and bone horses he fought against before, the soldiers he summoned were only LV1, and their strength was certainly lower.

But these are irrelevant.

After Guo Xiuwen confirmed the matter, he didn't delay in the camp, but waited for Lucien to point out the soldiers, and then led the team to the front line.

[Ding, five forest guards and a thousand tree men join your ranks! 】

The five forest guards are all elves, and they are all adults.

In other words, their strengths are all at the silver level.

Like Arya, they both chose to lock on their first skill.

Still following the previous road, between stops and stops, before reaching the position of the last battle, Guo Xiuwen saw the faint skeleton soldiers in front of him.

Guo Xiuwen called to stop the team, thought for a while, and walked forward alone.

With his current strength, there is no need to worry too much about safety.

Judging from the current situation, it is obvious that the vanguard of the undead race has moved a little further forward.

No wonder Lucien was anxious, if the opponent was allowed to go on like this, the space on the side of the forest camp would become smaller and smaller, and the time for the decisive battle would naturally come soon.

Guo Xiuwen came here because he wanted to see the situation on the other side.

Such an environment with towering trees standing tall is not very suitable for a decisive battle.

Not to mention overwhelming, the undead clan, which has always relied on numbers to win, even the thousand trees under Guo Xiuwen's hands cannot all be deployed.

And this kind of environment, for Guo Xiuwen, is actually a bit restrained.

After all, compared to silver-level masters, the number on his side is smaller than that of the opponent.

Even if he summoned five hellhounds, including himself, there were only thirteen.

Not counting the leader-level silver leader on the opposite side, there were fifteen of them, especially ten headless horsemen among them.

So before the battle, he wanted to take a look at the situation, the place where the last decisive battle was, there was a relatively flat space there.

He wondered if he could put the decisive battle there.

After all, if the battle is scattered, he doesn't know if the tree man can beat the skeleton soldiers and ghosts.

And it is conceivable that even if they can beat the opponent, the tree man will definitely suffer a lot of losses.

Just now, he promised in front of Lucien to bring as many treants back as possible.

If it was a miserable victory, it was not to his liking.

But after checking, Guo Xiuwen found that although the number of skeleton soldiers here is scattered, they are four or five miles away from the open space last time.

If it is on flat ground, Guo Xiuwen can overtake it with a single charge at such a small distance.

But it's different here.

In the forest environment, four or five miles away, with the current strength of the two sides, it will definitely take a long time to entangle.

"Hey, I still have to upgrade. I thought I could wait."

Guo Xiuwen had the confidence to promise Lucien to bring back the soldiers, so he had something to rely on.

Thinking of this, he looked at his property panel.

After thinking for a while, he finally made a decision.

[Whether it consumes 1000 experience points to increase the Demon Warlock level to LV2! 】

【Ding, congratulations on your upgrade! 】

【Whether it consumes 2000 experience points.】

[Whether it consumes 4000 experience points to increase the Demon Warlock level to LV5! 】

【Ding, congratulations on your upgrade! 】

[The demon warlock level has been raised to LV5, and you can master two additional skills! 】

Yes, Guo Xiuwen's support is here.

In the previous offensive and defensive battle, even after loading the elite template, he still had more than 8000 experience points left.

With so many experience points, he is naturally going to use it to improve his level.

At this moment, spending 5 experience points directly raised the Demon Warlock level to LV[-].

After upgrading to LV5, in addition to increasing all attributes by 20 points, there is another biggest advantage, that is, you can re-master two skills.

[You have mastered the skills of "Curse of Fear and Weakness" and "Summoning Demons"! 】

Yes, in the end, Guo Xiuwen chose the skills of [Curse of Fear and Weakness] and [Summon Demon] instead of the [Summon Hellfire] skill, which has strong attack power and can amplify Cerberus.

The reason for this is not that they do not covet Hellfire's terrifying attack range and powerful lethality.

The main reason is that the [Curse of Fear and Weakness] skill is more able to protect the subordinates than Hellfire.

Hellfire is naturally very good, but first of all he has an attack range and cannot directly target enemies.

And the more powerful the enemy, the faster the movement speed will naturally be.

If the hellfire comes with too much movement and the speed is slower, the enemy will often run out of this range.

The effect of [Curse of Fear and Weakness] is not the case, you can directly target the target.

In this way, at some critical moments, such as when the enemy is about to kill his soldiers, he can use this skill to make the opponent fall into fear.

In this way, the soldiers under his command will have a higher chance of survival, and if the gap in strength between the two sides is not too big.

You can even take the opportunity to kill the opponent when the opponent is in fear and weakness.

As for summoning demons, there is no need to say much.

Even if he doesn't upgrade to LV5, he can still have four more silver-level demon soldiers.

In this way, the gap between some silver-rank soldiers on both sides can also be directly bridged.

After choosing the skills, Guo Xiuwen looked at his eleven skill points and the skills he had mastered. First, he invested three skill points in the [Summon Demon] skill. Adding talent, the summon demon skill became LV4.

Then after thinking about it, he spent three more skill points to upgrade his combat skills to LV4.

[Warrior LV4]: After killing an enemy, restore 4% of the maximum HP of the target killed by the lord, increase 4 points of attack power and 4 points of attack speed.

Guo Xiuwen took a look and found that the time limit he guessed was still there, so he couldn't help sighing.

In fact, he would rather add fewer attributes, and hope that the duration will be longer.

But obviously, at least in the LV4 stage, it is impossible to achieve the hope.

As for continuing to upgrade to LV5, Guo Xiuwen was still reluctant.

After all, he currently has five skill points.

But there are still several skills in the hand that have not been upgraded.

After improving his combative skills, he gritted his teeth again and invested five skills directly into the moisturizing skills, directly maxing out the moisturizing skills.

[Moisturizing LV5]: Heal all soldiers within 6x6 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 15 seconds, and the cooling time is 3 minutes.

This time it was beyond his expectation, even the duration was increased by five seconds.

Although five seconds is not long, it is 1% of the previous LV50 level.

Guo Xiuwen was satisfied.

Add the remaining one skill point directly to the [Curse of Fear of Weakness] skill.

Looking at the remaining 8000 experience points, Guo Xiuwen was thinking about whether he should raise his race level.

According to the current level that can be upgraded to LV15, he can still collect ten more skill points.

And if you have ten skill points, then both [Curse of Fear and Weakness] skill and [Warriority] can be upgraded to full level.

Even the [sacrifice] skills that he hadn't upgraded to full level before can be filled up directly.

But he thought about it, but he didn't rush to upgrade.

After all, there is another benefit of upgrading, which is to directly refresh all negative states, restore full vitality and spirit, and refresh many skills.

These are things that can be reversed at critical times.

Guo Xiuwen didn't want to waste it all like this.

After all, at least for now, the skill level in his hand is almost enough, and there is no urgency to upgrade.

After leveling up and adding points, Guo Xiuwen avoided the skeleton soldiers and returned to the team.

He first arranged for Alia to be responsible for leading the other five elves, and then they would be responsible for assisting the attack of the silver soldiers on his side.

Then with a wave of his hand, five hellhounds and four demons were summoned.

【Horned Devil】

【Devil】【Silver】

Level: LV1 (0/100)

Strength: 45 (+14)

Constitution: 45 (+14)

Agility: 40
Spirit: 35
Skill: Scorching Strike (release a flame on the front 1x1 square meter, when the flame touches the enemy, it will cause 100% damage to the target, and at the same time continue to burn the target for nine seconds, causing an additional damage every three seconds.)
Hell Servant (Passive, Strength +30%, Constitution +30%, Health +50%.)
Raging flames (Scream from hell, enemies within 10x10 square meters around will suffer a burst of fire damage.)
Death hug (grab an enemy and smash it on the ground, causing 150% damage and cannot be dodged.)
Racial Talent: Broken Soul (After killing an enemy, you can forcibly deprive the opponent of their soul fragments. The fragments can be used to replenish 5% of your maximum health; you can also consume ten soul fragments at one time, increasing damage by 20%. lasts 1 minute.)
Description: The flames will consume you!

After reading the attributes of the Horned Demon, Guo Xiuwen felt relieved.

He knew the attributes of the Headless Horseman and the Bone Horse, and the other party was completely inferior to the Horned Demon.

Moreover, the horned demon is different from ordinary silver rank soldiers, that is, the opponent has four skills.

According to the soldiers he saw before, both the ordinary rank and the black iron rank ordinary rank are just one skill.

There will be one more at the Bronze rank. Logically speaking, if you are not an elite soldier, you will only have three skills at the Silver rank.

But the horned demon is an obvious exception.

It is obviously not an elite template, and there is no additional skill to master, but there is one more skill.

Of course, this is a good thing for Guo Xiuwen, so he naturally doesn't care.

Summoning four horned demons, at least in terms of high-end combat power, has leveled off a lot.

Before, Guo Xiuwen alone and Alia could almost fight five headless horseman + bone horse combinations.
