Volume 7: War and Peace Chapter 23: Confidence (1)
Simply waiting can make people feel very boring, especially for Yu Bin, this kind of waiting is simply murdering his own life!
When the entire Blackstone Mountain was completely engulfed by the erupting magma, the task given to Yu Bin by Merlin Murdoch was completed, after all, the entire Blackstone Mountain had been destroyed, and there was nothing to explore. Yu Bin believed that the grudge between the Black Dragon and the Fire Demon King was enough to satisfy the old Merlin guy.
"Hopefully this will give me more time!" When Yu Bin stepped into Orgrimmar's teleportation array, what he thought about was neither the reward of this mission nor the impact of the upcoming faction war, but the bad news that Merlin Murdoch had told him.
Someone is beating Naxxramas with the idea!
Being able to make a veteran earl of the Dia Empire secretive, Yu Bin could easily judge what kind of identity this ill-intentioned guy had, except for the senior nobles of the three undead empires, only the old immortals of the undead council were left. And no matter which of these people is beating his idea, it is not something that Yu Bin can deal with now.
That's why he had to go to Blackstone Mountain in person, provoking a camp war is a goal, and the plan to strangle Onexia can be regarded as a hand-holding, in addition, Yu Bin also hopes to find a target that is attractive enough to attract the attention that is placed on him.
Ragnaros is a good scapegoat! The Heart of Fire is clearly more attractive than a god-given land that hasn't grown yet!
Therefore, when he stayed in the Lord's Mansion in Morrington for less than five minutes before being kicked out by an unhappy-looking Merlin, Yu Bin knew that his plan had succeeded! The appearance of the Fire Demon King and the change in the situation across the continent had apparently diverted the attention of the undead bigwigs away from his little sir, so it was clear that the old Earl Merlin had lost interest in him.
However, Merlin Murdoch did not deduct Yu Bin's mission reward because of this.
Because he can be regarded as a perfect solution to the problem of Black Stone Mountain (although the consequences are more headaches), Yu Bin not only obtained a knight identity, but also received a town core from Morrington's treasury, as well as a set of zero to third order architectural drawings and corresponding resources, these are the materials used by the Dia Empire to support the newly promoted nobles to establish territories, theoretically speaking, the undead who can obtain the knight status are at least the existence of the seventh-order cap, such an undead NPC already has a good intelligence, Enough to be the manager of a village.
In addition, Yu Bin could also receive fifty sets of black iron armor and corresponding maintenance materials from Morrington's arsenal, and select fifty soldiers from the barracks who were no more than the fifth rank as his personal guards.
Although these additional rewards are useless to Yu Bin, in line with the principle that no matter how thin the mosquito's legs are, Yu Bin still unceremoniously took away fifty dark mages from the barracks, although these soldiers have ordinary qualifications, it is difficult to be promoted to become a qualified corpse witch, but at least they can be used to make gargoyles, Yu Bin's Naxxramas lacks this kind of "intellectual" the most, you know, there are few individuals with life skills among the civilians of the undead, unlike human civilians, no matter how bad, It's enough to be a qualified farmer!
After Morrington learned a few skills, Yu Bin returned directly to Naxxramas through the teleportation array.
After the adventure of the Black Stone Mountain, Yu Bin's level was almost at the peak of the third order, and it had to be said that the experience provided by those dragonmen was extremely rich, which made Yu Bin's upgrade speed barely able to keep up with the player's large army.
Compared with the improvement of its own level, the development of Naxxramas is even more refreshing!
Before Yu Bin set off for Blackstone Mountain, the entire Naxxramas began to prepare for the upcoming camp war, although many heroic combat forces were transferred by Yu Bin to the Burning Plains to deal with Onexia on the way, but under the management of Maltan, the entire territory still developed smoothly according to the route formulated by Yu Bin.
With Yu Bin's return, the council hall in the center of the territory began to upgrade again, and the town core strengthened with three special fortress cores quickly diffused a rich death power, enveloping the entire council hall in a thick black fog.
Three days later, Naxxramas is a first-class medium-sized city, although it is far less than the Venabyrion of the Angel's Covenant (after all, it was the former capital of Burrion Province, a proper large city), but it is also considered to be the top in the player group, except for the cities built by some super unions, in terms of territory level alone, Naxxramas is not much worse than the territories of those big guilds.
However, in other aspects, Naxxramas, which has not yet been promoted to a medium-sized city, can be said to completely crush other territories.
The first is the core and most important part of the territory - the town core! The strength of the town core determines how much range the territory can have, beyond which the functional buildings cannot be used, so the vast majority of the player's territory will keep the building area within the coverage of the town core. Compared to other players' territories that only use an ordinary core as the town core, Yu Bin's Naxxramas can be called extravagant to the extreme. He used three special fortress cores to strengthen the town core, which allowed Naxxramas to reach an astonishing distance, and the buildings in his realm were frantically improved.
Not to mention, with the blessing of the town core alone, it can support up to 36 0-order recruiting buildings, 32 1-order recruiting buildings, 24 2-order recruiting buildings, 16 3-order recruiting buildings, and 8 4-level recruiting buildings are enough to hang all player territories, and a large number of recruiting buildings means that they can recruit several times, or even dozens of times more undead soldiers in the same time, not to mention that with the blessing of the territory characteristics, the soldiers of Naxxramas are inherently several levels better than the soldiers of other territories!
And a better town core means better development potential, the ordinary town core at most supports the development of the territory to a small city, and then it must be strengthened with other town cores, and Yu Bin's current strengthened town core is enough to support Naxxramas to climb all the way to the top large cities, provided that Yu Bin's title can keep up!
The second is the territorial location! Unlike other players' territories, Naxxramas can be considered to be isolated in the depths of the Great Hengduan Mountains, surrounded by thousands of miles of uninhabited people, except for a large number of wild creatures roaming in the deep mountain streams. This is a more powerful defense than the tall and heavy city walls, as long as you take the teleportation array, if you want to attack this undead city located in the depths of the Anglis Mountain, you must first pass through the long and dangerous Great Hengduan Mountain Range, which is enough to make most enemies give up this idea directly, including NPCs!
At the same time, the vast Great Hengduan Mountain Range also provided a large source of supplies for Naxxramas, where no one grabbed resource points with Yu Bin, and no one grabbed wild monsters from Yu Bin, as far as the eye could see, as long as it could be controlled, it was Yu Bin's belongings. In fact, in the nearly three years since the establishment of Naxxramas, Yu Bin has controlled more than two hundred resource points, including even two small gold mines and three small silver mines, and other rare resources such as gems, crystals, sulfur, and mercury are also more than a dozen, and the number of resources transported back to Naxxramas every day is calculated by car, and now in order to store these resources, Maltan has to build more than thirty warehouses for hoarding, which is still the result of keeping low-level resources out!
And the abundant wild monster resources also attract a large number of players to level up here, compared to the territories of various races that have been developed for I don't know how many thousands of years, the Great Hengduan Mountain Range is like a virgin land that has not yet been unveiled, here is full of all kinds of herbs, ores, wood and gems, monsters in the wild can get a variety of furs and ingredients, rich wild monster resources have attracted nearly a hundred mercenary groups to reside in Naxxramas, just to hunt all kinds of rare animals in the Great Hengduan Mountains, and then transport them to other cities to sell at a high price! While helping Yu Bin develop the surrounding land, these endless players also contributed to the continuous expansion of Naxxramas' commercial scale. According to Martan's statistics, there are now more than 500 million gold coins in circulation in Naxxramas, and more than 300,000 gold coins can be collected in commercial taxes every day.
What does this mean? This means that just by relying on daily business taxes, Yu Bin can achieve an income of 30 million US dollars a day! Or recruit more than 50,000 soldiers a day, a number that would overwhelm any guild, not even the entire province of Burrion controlled by the Angel's Covenant!
Finally, the strength of the territory! The strength of a territory needs to be considered from two aspects, on the one hand, military strength, and on the other hand, economic strength, the former is the most intuitive embodiment of the territory's combat effectiveness, and the latter is the basis for ensuring that the territory can continue to support military power.
In terms of military strength, Naxxramas, which has a large number of recruiting buildings, is undoubtedly crushed, and in Bin's words, just relying on A to go through is enough to bulldoze those players' territories!
The number of troops on paper now exceeds 200,000, and they are basically top-level forms or hidden forms, and ordinary evolved soldiers similar to skeleton hunters can no longer be seen, all the skeleton troops of the 0th order are skeleton flying spearmen and skeleton giant shield soldiers, the total number is more than 70,000, and the number of skeleton soldiers and skeleton armor soldiers evolved from the 0-order hidden class white bone guards also has nearly 30,000 numbers, these blue, and even red qualified top-level 0-order soldiers are matched with a full set of equipment, The combat effectiveness is already stronger than the ordinary Tier 1 troops, and even close to the Tier 2 troops!
The cannon fodder skeletons of the 0th rank are already like this, and the soldiers of other ranks are even more jaw-dropping! The first-order class of the undead is the zombie system, because the zombie soldiers have the defect of moving slowly no matter which form they take, so Yu Bin only retains 20,000 zombie top-level form activation plants for defense, and the main training is the ghoul class exchanged from the psychic college, the top form of the soul eater and devourer are born with green qualifications, and after the bonus of the Heroic Soulland, they become red qualifications, with specially built equipment, coupled with the unique abilities of these troops, one-on-one and human third-order griffins will not fall behind! And such a soldier Yu Bin has accumulated a total of 50,000!
The 2nd order of the class Yu Bin chose a combination of a small number of ghosts and white bone knights, although the top form of the former lacks attack power, but the special effect is powerful, and the latter is Yu Bin's only knight class now, not only can be used to transform into demon bone dragoons, but the bone vanguard after evolving to the top is a rare heavy armor class, and the formation used to cooperate with the demon bone dragoons to impact the enemy can be described as indomitable! 20,000 Skeleton Pioneers plus 10,000 Evil Spirits and Soul Hooking Judges are the charging arrows that Yu Bin created for himself!
In the 3rd order of troops, Yu Bin gave up the bone mage, and focused on the standard class gargoyle of the undead, compared to the slow upgrade of the bone mage, difficult evolution, and the shortcomings of few spells, the gargoyle only needs enough advanced materials and craftsmen to directly make a high-level form of finished products, and the obsidian gargoyle made by the white bone mage and civilian craftsmen is not only powerful, but also has good magic resistance, and it is an air force built by Yu Bin! The 40,000 obsidian gargoyles not only exhausted the accumulated high-grade stones, but also a huge amount of money! Of course, you get what you pay for! The effect can definitely satisfy Yu Bin!
After entering the 4th tier, it is considered a mid-tier class. The standard 4th order class of the undead is the Death Messenger, and the top form of this series of troops is the Evil Spirit Reaper or the Dead Soul, which is a meat shield class with both physical and spiritual characteristics, and is generally used by the undead NPCs as a guard to protect the corpse witch, but Yu Bin is not satisfied with this class, because he can't mass-produce the corpse witch yet! So Yu Bin chose another hidden class, the white bone guard of the skeleton department! The top-level form of this class is the Plaguebringer or the Frightened Dead, the former is a humanoid plague barrel, except for a small range, the lethality of the living race is very high! The latter can be seen as a mage who can unleash the spell of mass fear, in addition to having less mana and more HP, the built-in fear aura can reduce the morale of the surrounding targets, and will perform a fear judgment every fifteen seconds, and if you can't pass, you will fall into a state of fear for two seconds! Three thousand Plague Messengers plus seven thousand Frightened Dead are the gift packages that Yu Bin prepared for the Order Guard!
