Lords of All: The Moving Castle of the Dead

The Jackal Fortress and the Kobold Fortress were completely destroyed, but the harvest was much worse than the last time. After all, after the last disastrous defeat, the elites of the two fortresses were almost annihilated. Otherwise, Li Ziyu would not have been able to win the two fortresses so easily. A fortress.

In the last battle, there were more than 8000 gnoll corpses, more than 5000 kobold corpses, and more than 3000 hyena corpses. This time, there were only more than 3000 gnoll corpses, and there were more kobolds, but 4000. There were more than 2000 coyote carcasses.

To Li Ziyu's surprise, he actually obtained the corpses of ogres and trolls this time, but there were only a small number of them, only a dozen.

Whether they are ogres or trolls, they are all big guys. They were summoned by the gnoll priests. Their combat power is not weak. Although they are not comparable to the elite Heavy Hammer Skeleton Warriors, it is still easy for a big guy to kill dozens of skeletal undead. of.

It's a pity that Bentham was scared out of his wits by the surprise attack and ran away with Pansy. Otherwise, he would have given serious instructions. With the help of the jackal priest and priest, although he would probably lose in the end, it would still bring a lot of benefits to Li Ziyu. casualties.

The basic combat strength of the Gnolls under Bentham is Rangers, Gnoll Warriors, and Gnoll Lancers. These three compositions make up the majority, while the three types of troops, Wolf Guards, Priests, and Priests, are very small in number. , especially priests and priests, which are magic professions. The two professions combined, the number is about the same as that of Wolf Guards.

The last time the Wolf Guard was sent to the battlefield, he was completely injured in the battle with the Bull Demon, so this time there were only priests and priests on the battlefield.

Li Ziyu analyzed it and basically clarified the situation. Bentham only introduced himself at that time, but in fact, he was the city lord of the Gnoll Fortress, and the Waiguoren who later died was the city lord of the kobolds. The situation should be similar to my own, the two are in an alliance.

Bentham should have taken that crooked nut as his subordinate. He never introduced the unlucky guy from beginning to end. So when the kobold city lord died, Li Ziyu didn't even know his name. Well, it was pure. A passerby.

Thank you for the soul energy sent by passerby A, a kind person.

Elite Hammer Skeleton Warrior, this cost-effective battlefield tank, must be summoned, and it must be replenished to 3000, which consumes 29 units of soul energy.

The long-range firepower of his subordinates has always been insufficient. In large-scale battles, long-range firepower is too dominant. If you think about Bentham's Jackal Lancers, you will understand. The reason why he can run rampant in the wasteland and plunder everywhere is because the Jackal Spearmen are the key. Factors, they will fire a few volleys at you from a distance and make you lie down first, which will have a great impact on morale and combat effectiveness.

After some statistics, the harvest this time was not as great as last time, but it also produced nearly 80 units of soul energy, which was quite a lot. Li Ziyu sincerely sighed that the development of the undead tribe was inseparable from war. The more we fight, the stronger we become. If we don’t fight, we will not be able to increase our development speed.

After all, the undead are a race that relies on the number of skeletal undead, but if there is no way to let the skeletal undead control them, it will be difficult to exert their true combat effectiveness.

It doesn't matter how many bones there are, let alone 400 units of bones. Even if it is 4000 units of bones, Li Ziyu doesn't feel distressed at all, but 5.3 soul energy is really a bit heartbreaking.

It's okay, it's too much, and it's acceptable.

Archers must be added!

Li Ziyu does not have muskets in his arsenal, so archers are the key. He now has more than 300 skeleton longbowmen in his hands, but he can face the upcoming cancer coalition. What is the use of 300 skeleton longbowmen? If they are replaced by 300 Spartan warriors, almost.

A lot of resources in other areas were also collected. In addition to a large amount of basic materials, two mobile fortress warehouses were also seized. There was a pile of miscellaneous resources that could not be used for the time being. Li Ziyu simply piled them all into his own. In the warehouse, we don’t know when to use it, but we just throw it away first.

[Decompose the jackal sacrifice +1, obtain skeleton*2 units, jackal skin*1, sharp fangs*42, intact wolf claws*18, soul energy*300 units]

He has no shortage of bones now, and the ammunition that the short archers need to consume can be fully supplied. As a long-range unit like the long archers, Li Ziyu does not intend to let it go. Anyway, the soul energy has been consumed, and the short archers are not short of this. .

In order to verify his idea, he deliberately asked the system with the intention of giving it a try, and the system actually gave the answer.

He used to have a group of mid-level and low-level skeleton warriors, but he felt that the combat effectiveness of the mid-level and low-level skeleton warriors was no longer enough, so he used them as cannon fodder. Now he feels so distressed, because they are all soul energy!

They all have to be summoned again. Each skeleton warrior requires 100 units of soul energy. It feels like my heart is bleeding.

[Decompose ogre +1, obtain skeleton*4 units, fangs*6, soul energy*50 units]

But since the system has provided arms, they naturally have their value. Li Ziyu discovered the hidden uses of advanced skeleton warriors.

Forget it, let’s talk about the future later, think about the present first.

How to allocate this soul energy and create more arms needs to be studied.

Do you want to create more advanced skeleton warriors?

On the surface, the advanced skeleton warrior is not as cost-effective as the elite heavy hammer skeleton warrior. After all, both consume 100 units of soul energy. However, in terms of combat effectiveness, the elite heavy hammer skeleton warrior can directly blast the advanced skeleton warrior, which is not the case at all. A level of combat effectiveness.

Yes, feel free to call.

Damn it, I’ve called too many people, how long will this take?

Let’s calculate based on the amount of 15 legions first. 10 legions is Li Ziyu’s target. As for the remaining skeleton warriors, they are backup. After all, they are on the battlefield. In case of death, there must be skeletons that can be sent. Warrior, right?

To create a skeleton warrior, another 16.5 units of soul energy had to be consumed, leaving less than 160 million units of soul energy on hand.

Taking 10 as a legion, a legion requires 1 high-level skeleton warrior, 1 mid-level skeleton warriors, and 1 low-level skeleton warriors. To meet the requirements, 10 units of soul energy need to be consumed.

It's like having a large army in hand, but without any officers. Is it possible to control it all by myself? Once the order is given, the delivery speed is slow, and the soldiers cannot fully understand the order, even if there are many people. , but the combat effectiveness cannot be improved.

Oops... After understanding this sentence, Li Ziyu rolled his eyes in anger.

It’s no wonder that in the stories passed down by the aboriginal people, the undead are a terrifying race that is extremely warlike and kills all living beings. This can be regarded as finding its roots.

What a fucking dog system. It didn’t remind me of such critical information at all. If I didn’t ask, it wouldn’t tell me!

For how long, I have always thought that the Skeleton Warrior was an ordinary combatant, but it turned out that he was an officer, not an ordinary soldier at all!

No wonder it has always felt strange. The combat power of skeleton warriors is higher than that of undead skeletons, but there is a limit to how high it can be. To put it bluntly, they are just undead skeletons with equipment and combat training. Now I understand everything.

It’s so unreliable!

According to this reasoning, the value of the Skeleton Warriors as a unit is equivalent to that of grassroots officers. Li Ziyu does not need to master all the Skeleton Undead. He only needs to send the Skeleton Warriors down and let them lead the Skeleton Undead in combat.

These 240 million soul energy are Li Ziyu's confidence. Thinking of Bentham talking about the hundreds of thousands of cancer coalition troops before, he felt somewhat calmer.

Gnoll priests and priests, for example, provide 300 units of soul energy. It can be said that they are the units that Li Ziyu has ever seen that provide the most soul energy.

[Decompose the Jackal Ranger +1, obtain skeleton*2 units, jackal skin*1 piece, intact wolf teeth*42, intact wolf claws*18, soul energy*100 units] Um... no need for advanced skeleton warriors Summoned. I just summoned 500 of them before. I only need to summon mid- to low-level skeleton warriors.

[Congratulations, you have discovered the hidden information "The True Purpose of the Skeleton Warrior". 】

[The true purpose of the Skeleton Warrior: As the most basic undead battle sequence, the Skeleton Warrior has special coercion and can control a certain number of skeletal undead to help the city lord better complete combat instructions. 】

As for the high-level skeleton warrior, if you say he is strong, he is not bad. If you say he is not strong, he is indeed no match for the elite Heavy Hammer Skeleton Warrior. Li Ziyu is wondering what the use of the high-level skeleton warrior is. He can't say anything. Use it or not.

Thinking of the 500 high-level skeleton warriors summoned, Li Ziyu's heart began to bleed again.

After Li Ziyu learned this, he was so angry that his head was about to smoke. This dog system would not only complain, but also hide information. If you don't pay attention, the dog system would pick up key things. If you don't ask, it would I won’t tell you, hey, are you angry?

System, you are not a human, you are a real dog!

After taking a few deep breaths, Li Ziyu forced himself to calm down and looked at the hidden information with gritted teeth.

Well, it's exactly what I thought. The more advanced the arms are, the more soul energy they are given. The arms that involve magic are especially given more soul energy.

Last time, 160 million units of soul energy were left useless. This time, he got another 80 units of soul energy. He now has 240 million units of soul energy on hand, which is enough for him to expand.

Li Ziyu gritted his teeth, but what could be done? It was a system, visible but intangible. People could be angry with it, but he couldn't do anything about it.

Maybe it's because of this system update. It's much more convenient. At least you can know what the military units can be broken down into.

This time the strategy needs to be adjusted. Since the Skeleton Warriors are grassroots officers, a group of them must be summoned. With them, the Skeleton Undead can exert its true combat effectiveness, which is so critical.

Li Ziyu glanced at the system information and was surprised to find that the system decomposition prompt contained the names of the military units. Before that, they were all elite jackals and elite kobolds, and it was impossible to distinguish the military units.

Li Ziyu thanked you devoutly in his heart. Youdao is a dead enemy, and he is a truly good enemy. He was an enemy in life, but after death, it will not prevent him from being grateful.

However, in this way, the combat effectiveness of Li Ziyu's undead has been greatly enhanced, and the soul energy is not wasted.

[Decompose giant monster +1, obtain skeleton*4 units, fangs*2, soul energy*50 units]

The single cost of the Skeleton Longbow requires 4 units of bones and 530 units of soul energy. If there are 100 people in a team, 400 units of bones and 5.3 units of soul energy are required.

[*Note: Each low-level skeleton warrior can control 1 skeleton undead. Each intermediate skeleton warrior can control 10 skeleton warriors and 1 skeleton undead. Each high-level skeleton warrior can control 10 high-level skeleton warriors and 10 skeletal undead. Note that it is not possible to skip levels and directly complete control. 】

He is still a fortress-level mobile castle, and his troops are naturally not much higher, but even so, he feels numb. When the main building is upgraded to a higher-level mobile fortress, there will definitely be more When new troops appear, how much soul energy will be consumed and where to get so much soul energy is hard to even think about.

These two arms alone would consume 66 units of soul energy, which was not too much and gave Li Ziyu a toothache.

The elite Hammer Skeleton Warrior is a true warrior, capable of unrivaled kills, single-handedly, and a combat power report. Just by looking at the appearance, you can tell that the reputation of a battlefield tank is not in vain.

……

Just like the last time he fought against the Jackals, the skeleton undead Li Ziyu sent out were clearly several times more powerful than the opponent, but they were blocked by the Jackal soldiers. They couldn't get past them and couldn't fight. They were allowed to attack them at will, and tens of thousands of troops were lost in vain. , and the maximum damage caused to the opponent is probably the consumption of the ammunition of the Jackal Lancers.

Li Ziyu thought about it for a while, and found that among the types of soldiers he had researched, there was another type of unit that he had not yet made - the Skeleton Short Archer.

But the skeleton longbow is so advantageous on the battlefield. It has powerful attack power and long-range suppression effect. It has to be made even if it bites the bullet. Let's get 700 first and assemble 10 teams of skeleton longbowmen. This will consume 37 units. Soul energy.

Li Ziyu also concluded that he felt that he had used the wrong method.

Let me think about it...

Li Ziyu noticed the last sentence in the note, "It is impossible to skip levels and directly complete the control." This means that if a high-level skeleton warrior wants to control 10 undead skeletons, he must have 10 intermediate skeleton warriors and 100 low-level skeleton warriors. Only the skeleton warrior can do it, otherwise he will not be able to complete his rule.

The high-level battle sequence is indeed the shortcoming of the undead. It is all about racial restrictions. If you want to build a high-level undead team, the soul energy consumed is sky-high. It is extremely difficult.

[Decompose the Jackal Priest +1, obtain bones*2 units, Jackal skin*1, sharp fangs*4, intact wolf claws*18, soul energy*300 units]

In order to save resources, Li Ziyu chose the skeleton long archer. He had never summoned the short archer. This time he remembered it.

After two battles with the Jackal Fortress, he received as much as 250 million soul energy, which was much more than the total soul energy he received after traveling through time.

As a basic battle sequence, it must be valuable!

The value of a high-level skeleton warrior is not in its own combat effectiveness, but in its commanding power!

The real use of the Skeleton Warrior is to use higher levels to dominate lower levels, forming a domination pyramid, thereby controlling the huge army of undead skeletons.

But it doesn't matter. There are a lot of skeletons in the Undead Mountains. He can summon a massive army of skeleton undead. The high-level soldiers will be responsible for killing and wounding, and the rest will be left to the low-level skeleton undead.

Hey, now the decompositions have names.

He knew very well that even if all the soul energy was used to make skeleton long archers and elite heavy hammer skeleton warriors, not many such powerful units could be produced.

Each short archer needs to consume 3 units of bones and 310 units of soul energy. Compared with the long archer, the short archer consumes less soul energy.

Li Ziyu decided to test the water with 1000 first to see how the combat effectiveness was. If the effect was good, he could add more later, so with a wave of his hand, another 31 soul energy was spread out.

In order to strengthen, Li Ziyu also worked hard and experienced the feeling of throwing away money.

This is what it feels like to be a rich person. You can be willful when you have money, and you can scatter money freely and be happy!

I was thinking this in my heart, but my eyes were slightly moist. Damn it, it felt like I suddenly got rich, got more than 200 million, and then in the blink of an eye, half of it was gone. I was happy, woo woo woo, I was so happy.

Forget it, don’t think about it anymore, as long as the undead can develop, it will always be good, and they can always make money back!
