Chapter 80: Ready to Go

If you want to get to the core crystal in the palace, you can only walk there, and there is no teleportation array here.

As he passed through the square, Locke turned his head to look at the scene of the battle between the ghouls and the orcs in the distance, no, it should be said that it was a massacre, the orcs were so suppressed by all kinds of negative emotions that they couldn't even hold a knife.

Their numbers were rapidly decreasing, and when the vampires covered in red robes joined the battlefield, all the ghouls glowed red all over their bodies, doubled in size in an instant, raised their heads and roared loudly, and immediately pounced on the remaining orcs.

Suddenly, the whole square was filled with mosaics in mid-air......

Vampire Aura and Bloodthirsty Aura, two states, one has the effect of absorbing life, and the other greatly increases attack damage and attack frequency.

The vampire's battlefield support ability is really not covered!

Looking at the scene in the distance, Locke suddenly sighed, this is worthy of the funds allocated to them, although it is a little expensive, but it is indeed worth the money, isn't it?

In a few moments, the mangled corpses of the orcs were piled up in a large square.

"Nina, let them rest and have a task later."

"Understood."

Now, it's time to get down to business.

Connecting the signal nodes between the various troops, so that Locke in the rear can control all the troops to operate, then this node, as a signal relay station, must have flexible mobility to facilitate escape.

Gargoyle is just right.

Gargoyles are also made in the same way as ghouls:

One is to create undead alchemists and craft them in the same way that vampires summon low-end ghouls.

The gargoyles produced are controlled by necromancers, and the number of them is huge, and because they are made of alchemy, they can't have the same autonomy as normal creatures, but the cost is negligible.

The second is to build a stone statue cave, all the gargoyles produced are demonic, with substantial life characteristics, in addition to being able to become stone statues, another role is the information node, that is, the signal station, that is, when the lord wants to send a message to someone in a remote area, as long as a gargoyles are placed in the middle of every large distance, the lord's voice will pass through the gargoyles along the way, and finally reach the person he wants to convey.

This is normal usage, and it has been the case for all years.

However, Locke is different, he intends to use the gargoyle in the middle to connect his will through a certain unit that is too far away from him to control, and finally control the unit he wants to control through the nearest gargoyle.

Theoretically possible, but no king has ever done so.

Gargoyles' only drawback is that they are fragile and consume a bit more energy than ghouls, but because they look like demons, most lords like to use them as regular troops.

In Locke's view, this is useless except for waste and letting people know that they are demons - as signal nodes, they only need to have a certain number, and as a flying combat unit, its maneuver speed and destructive power are far from enough.

You know, the human air unit is a wyvern or a griffin, and no matter how bad it is, it is also a one-horned Pegasus, and if the gargoyle wants to stand out from this group of beasts, it can only rely on the numerical advantage to go to the hard bar.

This is quite wasteful, and it is not cost-effective for Locke.

If you want to win, you must have better air units to crush the opponent, and only in this way can you achieve the tactical victory of 'seizing air supremacy', but this is the goal for the future, so I won't mention it here.

That's all about gargoyles.

The Necromantic Alchemist has a large number of gargoyles with low cost, but has no side skills other than turning stone.

The gargoyles in the gargoyles in the ghoul cavern have a moderate amount of cost, but can be used as a transit station to extend the distance of Locke's will control.

"Build a cave of stone statues." Locke, who was standing in front of the core crystal, ordered without any hesitation.

Soon after, the cave was built, next to the temple of Pandora, a hill with a demonic face at the entrance.

The facility consumes 3,000 cubic meters per day, with a maximum production capacity of 3 per day, and the wartime cost can be halved.

Locke stood above the virtual image given by the core crystal and looked down at the entire city, frowning slightly:

"The architectural arrangement I made doesn't seem to be aesthetically pleasing, and the architecture is ...... or something."

From the graveyard to the cavern, there are: a sandcastle-shaped horror graveyard, a screaming house in the shape of a broken mansion, a large blacksmith-shaped forge, a luxurious villa-shaped blood pool temple, a large ruin-style Pandora Temple, a stable-style bone pens, and a stone statue cave with a hill-shaped devil's mouth opening.

They are listed there in such a horizontal line, with different styles, and the overall look is quite awkward.

There was originally a pyramid-shaped energy detection station in the middle, but it was demolished.

The core crystal seemed to hear that Wang was not satisfied with the arrangement of the buildings he had made, and proposed, "Do I need to help you change the location?" It takes some resources and energy to move. ”

Locke thought for a moment, and finally shook his head and said, "I can't think of how to arrange it, forget it, how can I, a graduate student of human psychology, understand this." Nina, tell the cave to bring me 30 gargoyles, and the extra cost for them is, by the way, it's the time of the big war, tell them to charge less. ”

"Understood."

With all that was done, Locke led Anne out of the cave, through the main hall, and into the square.

Looking at the skeleton soldiers in front of him who were dragging various orc corpses, Locke turned his head and asked Anne on his shoulder again, "Think about anything else that has fallen?" ”

Anne, who put her arms around his neck, looked strange and asked, "What do you want to do all this way?" ”

"......," Locke was speechless for a moment, and finally rubbed her neck affectionately and said, "Have you been sleeping for a long time?" Stinky girl. ”

The little one giggled, but she still didn't understand.

Locke looked at the demon army standing in the square in front of him, sighed helplessly, stretched out his backhand to the little girl's head and rubbed it, and said in a lost voice: "Forget it, you'll know later, we're going to do the big ticket." ”

"Oh~~ Are you going to kill someone?" This sentence came out of the mouth of an innocent and romantic three-year-old girl, which was really a little scary.

“...... No, we're going hunting. ”

After Locke finished speaking, he rolled over onto Charlie's back and reviewed the 300 black-armored ghouls, 100 skeleton knights of the Fenrir Empire, 20 skeleton dragoons, 1,230 large shield spear skeleton soldiers, and three vampire mages wrapped in red robes.

He glanced up at the 30 slender black demon gargoyles with large wings and hideous faces flying in the sky.

Finally, he ordered: "The pikes stay, the mobile troops follow, the demon expeditionary force, go!" (To be continued)
