Tyr was a special case, and Ling Qi didn't expect to be able to catalyze a strong man under his command to the point where he was second only to him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Even if you don't understand the principle of bloodline inheritance, it is obvious that the third of the dead witch guards is very revealing.

This method of "transplanting" the bloodline may only have a great effect on the weak, and the effect on the strong will decrease, and the danger they will face in the process will increase exponentially!

This... Not reinforcing at all.

Of course, all this is just Ling Qi's speculation, maybe he can really make a large number of weak people become elites by bleeding himself, and let the elites become warriors or even lords, without considering their loyalty.

The question is, how many warriors and lords can he make?

What's the point!

The combination of Demon Blood and Ember Afterglow can have a similar effect, although they are limited in number and have been exhausted, but the limited amount is beyond his ability to sow seeds, and he can't release as much blood from his body.

The Witch Guards who grew up would not be inferior to ordinary warriors, but even if they doubled or tripled in number, they were actually not as useful as Ling Qi alone.

Heroes are heroes, and they may be besieged by as many warriors as they are, but they will never be replaced by many warriors!

The herald's movements were fast, and before Ling Qi could see the orc flags erected outside the city, the horns in the city had already sounded.

In the past, there was a bronze bell in Changhu Town, but a few days ago, in order to repair the broken weapons and armor, he had ordered someone to dismantle the bell and cast it.

Not to mention what kind of bronze bell, even the door panels of ordinary people's homes, the tables and chairs in the tavern have all been transformed into wooden shields and wooden cars.

Ling Qi had never wanted to stay in Changhu Town forever, so he had been preparing for the materials to be taken with him during the retreat many days earlier, and since he had estimated that he would lose foreign help, he began to order the craftsmen to hurry up and make rudimentary weapons and armor, as well as some durable frames.

In short, in view of his foresight and the excessive energy of the craftsman, by now, everyone in Changhu Town finally has something to defend themselves.

The equipment on the witch guards has lost its former glory, but it has become thicker and stronger.

The best weapons and equipment, including those elven artifacts, were all reserved for the city guards in reserve, and of course they were now called "Iron Guards", a nickname given by Ling Qi himself, meaning as tough as steel.

Each of them had two weapons, one long and one short, mostly swords, and among them there were more than sixty good marksmen, and they were also equipped with longbows and two pots of arrows. There are not many crossbows in Changhu Town, there are less than eighty bows, and there are only two crossbows, of course, the dwarven metal heavy crossbow does not count. As a result, there aren't many ranged troops in Long Lake.

Bows and crossbows are much more difficult to make than swords, and some blacksmiths can't even afford to repair damaged bows.

As for the militia regiments, they are really just militiamen, no matter how strong they become after gaining the lowest level of demonic blood, and they can cut through the thick wood of their arms with a single sword, they can still only use the worst equipment.

The shields that were repurposed with pot lids were for them, and some of the angular stones were their ranged weapons.

"Slingers", the most rubbish type of troops, were also put on the stage by Ling Qi.

But in reality, with the physical fitness of these people, being a slinger will not be better than forcing them to pick up a bow and arrow, not everyone knows how to shoot a bow and arrow, but even a child can throw stones.

The reason why these people are not favored by Ling Qi is not just a matter of their loyalty, after all, it is just a virtual thing, and he has a way to make them obedient.

He is not optimistic about them, the key is that they are only slightly transformed by the demonic bloodline, and while their intelligence is weakened, their physical strength is increased simultaneously. The effect of this is that they become more developed, simple-minded, more energetic, and slower learners.

These people don't have the ember afterglow to stimulate their potential, they have almost no potential in terms of weapon mastery, and they won't make much progress if they practice hard qigong, and it's a blessing that they can master swordsmanship without hurting themselves.

These people are definitely excellent cannon fodder seeds, but it is impossible for them to become the backbone at all, unless their number is doubled!

If you want to get something in return, you have to pay, God is fair, under the energetic appearance of the guards, the real life span is not much left, but in this kind of world of great contention, they are definitely the most difficult fighters to be consumed as cannon fodder, and no wise superior will ignore their potential. And the witch guards can't be considered human beings at all. As for the militia ...

When some of the members of the militia group stepped on the front line through the pontoon bridge erected between the inner and outer city walls, their fate was already sealed!

The city walls of Changhu Town are not short, and the newly built outer walls, under the reinforcement of these days, are already five or six meters high and more than one meter wide.

With such height and thickness, although it can't block a few attacks from a heavy trebuchet, it looks very strong. And the inner city wall will only be taller and thicker than the outer city wall, and it is really the same as the stone wall of the fortress fortress!

Changhu Town, built on the ruins of the old city, is relatively famous in this land.

It has a poor but glorious past, and its long-standing weakness but thick walls that are strong enough to hold back the trolls' charge are beyond the reach of other equally poor and weak territories.

The old walls of Changhu Town are more than eight meters high, and the width is more than one and a half meters wide at the narrowest point, and the average width has reached an astonishing level of one meter eight, and the whole body is made of hard rock, even trebuchets have to attack for a long time to break. This is fundamentally different from the exterior wall that was piled up with all kinds of garbage and engineering waste in less than half a month, and it has already withstood the test of history!

The inner and outer walls were the greatest security in the hearts of the people of Changhu Town, and only Ling Qi knew how vulnerable they were in the face of the grouped legions.

There are too many enemies, not to mention just two stone walls, even if it is a real copper wall, it can't stop the endless army.

Half of the town of Changhu is backed by water, so the defense is always like an iron bucket. The barricades between the docks and the town are thinner than the newly built facades, and although there are sluices, they look much stronger than the lair of the lake thieves, but in fact they can't withstand the onslaught of any large animals.

Fortunately, the townspeople of Changhu Town are proficient in water, and with the warships converted from fishing boats, they are all qualified sailors. The orcs' fear of water meant that they would never be able to become strong swimmers, and if the enemy wanted to attack Changhu Town from the water, Ling Qi's mind would be followed.

Because there was still a lake to patrol, almost half of the guards were assigned, and their responsibilities were even greater, as they guarded a barely defended territory that would likely become the last retreat for Long Lake.

The girl Sigrid is the commander-in-chief of these people, she is the current number two leader of the Iron Guard, not only because of Ling Qi's promotion, but also because of her own hard work, and that amazing talent for growth, both in terms of individual combat and team command.

Perhaps, the saying that this world treats the noble and the low by blood is indeed very reasonable, and the descendants of heroes are always more likely to become new heroes, and dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes. In this world, there are princes, generals, and ministers.

Civilian heroes such as Farion, even if they have the great opportunity given by Ling Qi, they will probably stop here for the rest of their lives.

And some, such as Bain, who is also a child of Bard, even if he is suppressed, he is working in secret, and that kind of growth and progress is also amazing to others.

There is no shortage of hero seeds in Changhu Town, what is lacking is ready-made heroes.

After all, the girl Sigrid is still young, and no matter how talented she is, she can at best be on a par with ordinary witch guards, and that's not counting her unique innate ability to see the weaknesses of her enemies.

The one who always pressed her in the Iron Guard was a young man named Quinn.

Quinn is an orphan, and there are many orphans in Long Lake Town, but there are not many who can mix and nourish like him.

Prior to Ling Qi's arrival, Quin was the head of the gangsters in Long Lake and a key member of the union that Bard had privately formed.

However, as soon as Bard was defeated, this kid took the initiative to hand over the list of members of the underground trade union through Nitin through Nitin.

Of course, Ling Qi never had any intention of purging them. Originally, if it hadn't been for a little accident, even Bud and his friends might have been used by him. So Quinn didn't get much of a reward for it.

Ling Qi saw through the essence of this man from his performance, and did give him some special attention later, such as refusing his request to join the city guard too early, and letting him become an ordinary leader in the reserves.

Quinn did not disappoint Ling Qi, while maintaining his apparent loyalty, his innate physique was not weak, and his progress was faster than Sigrid's!

"Quinn, are your people all arranged?"

Ling Qi stood at the head of the city, looked at the hurried crowd in the front and rear phalanxes, and asked lightly.

Only a few important figures were left behind by his side, such as Nitin, the commander-in-chief of the militia, several of the strongest witch guards, Farion, the temporary commander of the witch guard, Quinn, the governor of the Iron Guard, and Bob the herald.

"It's pretty much the same, except that Sigrid took all the archers with him, so..."

Quinn looked down and said, his voice was a little shrill and thin if it was high, but it was very tame when it was low, and he had never spoken out loud to Ling Qi.

"Hehe, is that so..."

Ling Qi smiled slightly, he obviously saw some iron guards carrying bows and arrows on their backs, although there were not many of them, but there were still them.

He can understand Quinn's careful thinking, and he can tolerate it, and this guy probably fully understands the limits of his tolerance, and it is likely that he is deliberately showing him. A general who is not jealous and has no desires may not be loved by the lord.

"It's okay, anyway, it's just the enemy's vanguard army that came this time..."

Ling Qi said lightly, with only a thousand people, in terms of the dark forces entrenched in the lonely mountain, they were indeed only pioneers.

But even the enemy's vanguard has to pour its strength to meet the battle, and the gap between the combat power of the two sides is so large that it is really not good.

This gap in momentum is so big that even if there is no Sauron, as long as someone can see through his retreat, relying on the most rubbish orc infantry, those miscellaneous people can surround and tear him apart!

Now, Ling Qi was a little nostalgic for the time when the ability to snatch souls had not yet evolved, and before that, although the skill of life siphoning was superficial, it was probably more suitable for the situation in front of him!

From the level of rules, the means of seizing the soul are many times stronger than the ability to steal the life force, after all, the soul is the foundation of life. But for a user, a user of the mortal world, the ability to steal life is obviously more practical. A bag of diamonds is worth more than a box of bills, but if it falls into the hands of someone who has no way to sell it, it is likely to be the same as a stone, or even a bag of beautiful stones that can bring disaster.
