Chapter 199: Establishing a Stronghold
Thank you for Purple Flame丨Rose's 588 Quge www.biquge.info coins reward!
……………………
With a muffled bang, a quaint gate appeared in front of Roland's eyes.
"Whew...... It should be able to enter the ............."
Roland glanced deeply at the Ouroboros Ring in his hand, and then slowly walked towards the gate.
If you want to set up a stronghold of the "Shadow Legion" inside the ring, you must go inside to set it up. Roland had tried to get someone else inside the Ouroboros Ring, but it was the first time he had entered it in person, and a hint of curiosity could not help but well-rise in his heart.
The moment Roland's feet stepped into the door, there was a sudden buzz, and a burst of light lit up in his field of vision, forcing him to close his eyes for a while.
"This is the inside of the Ouroboros?"
It took a long time for Roland to slowly open his eyes and look around.
After looking around, he noticed that this place was a little different from what he had imagined, and there was a world in front of him that was almost unsurprising from reality, with emerald green plains, dense forests, mountains, and even rivers.
It's a different world............
Suddenly, Roland realized that he had picked up a ring that could be compared to an artifact.
Of course...... There are also some areas that are more counterintuitive.
For example, when there is no sun in the sky, the whole world remains bright.
"Hey, is that where the Ice Queen lives?"
Suddenly, Roland found that there was a scene of ice and snow on the mountainside not far away, which seemed a little out of place with the surrounding environment.
And in the midst of that snowstorm, there is also a huge ice castle faintly emerged.
See such an architectural style. Roland immediately reacted, this is the residence of Molly and the others, because the creatures inside the ring are only 21 ice queens.
"Whew, let's determine the stronghold first, as for the location...... It's set right in this place. ”
Roland sighed. Immediately after that, the work of selecting a location for the base began.
After some thought, he finally settled on the location of the wide plain.
Because he decided to establish a place of residence in this world, using this stronghold as its origin, and using it as a refuge.
As for those who built the place of residence, aren't there still soldiers of the "Shadow Legion"? I believe that they will definitely be able to do such a job.
"Use the Shadow Legion!"
Suddenly, Roland held the purple king card in front of him and said softly.
As soon as the words fell, there was a buzz, and a black torrent suddenly emerged from the card.
I saw that the black torrent carried a whistling breath. It slammed into the clearing with a thud and spread out in all directions.
After a while, an oval-shaped black object that looked like a black mist was formed.
As time passed, the large oval object began to slowly dissipate, revealing an altar-shaped structure.
As far as the eye can see, the altar building is a European-style building with black as the main tone, and the scale is not small, comparable to the size of a basketball court.
And Roland also discovered. Right in the center of the building, a portal of energy forms that leads to nowhere.
In a flash. Roland also popped up two information prompts in front of him.
[Ding, the Shadow Legion stronghold has been set up, now you can try to recruit your soldiers.] 】
[Hint: You won't be able to use this card until the stronghold is destroyed.] 】
"Whew...... Start recruiting soldiers now! ”
He took a deep breath and followed the instructions above, slowly walking up to the altar building. Attempts to recruit the first soldiers began.
But as soon as Roland said this, a prompt popped up again in front of him:
[Tip: If you need to recruit soldiers, please put the corresponding amount of magic crystals (or monster crystal nuclei) into the altar.] 】
Do you need to invest in magic crystals to recruit soldiers?
Looking at this information, Roland couldn't help frowning, but ...... It didn't take long for him to feel relieved.
You know, even if it's a strategy game, it's a production class. It also requires a certain amount of resources, and it is not surprising that the condition of investing in magic crystals is now. And even so, compared to retraining a level 50 warrior, the cost of recruiting in this way is very cheap.
"Damn, I'm glad I still have some magic crystals on me."
He sighed helplessly, and hurriedly took out the more than a hundred magic crystals stored on his body and slowly stacked them on the altar. Luckily, he had obtained some magic crystals on that trip to the Spider's Lair, otherwise the next recruitment would not have been completed.
[Ding, the number of sacrifices is 132 fifth-order magic crystals, and the recruitment begins. 】
In an instant, a cloud of silver light poured out of the portal, and suddenly turned into two large hands, sweeping away all the magic crystals on the ground.
But after this scene, there was a dead silence all around.
Even the portal didn't move, only a blue glow could be seen flickering inside.
Could it be that the number of magic crystals is not enough?
Just when Roland was puzzled, the portal not far in front of him immediately became abnormal.
With a sigh, I saw that the portal of that energy state was like a machine with unstable voltage, suddenly bursting out of several lightning bolts, and constantly flashing with dark blue light.
The strange blue light flickered for a while, and suddenly, a figure slowly walked out of the portal.
When I looked closely, I saw that it was a human soldier wrapped in gray armor and carrying a spear and sword blade.
If you look closely, you will find that the armor on these soldiers is not simple, and there are strange gray lines faintly, exuding a strange aura, which makes people feel a sense of timidity the moment they see it.
As soon as the first gray-armored soldier appeared on the altar, the portal's dark blue glow immediately flickered at an increased frequency, making it look like a small blue sun.
With a non-stop flicker of faint blue light. Soldiers kept coming out of it, and it soon made the altar a little crowded.
"Although it's only a level 50 soldier, I'm afraid it's stronger than an average soldier."
Roland looked at the soldiers who walked out of the portal and couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.
There was no doubt that all of those soldiers were level 50 veterans with combat experience. Because he could clearly feel that a murderous aura was detected in these guys. That's the momentum that has really been on the battlefield, and it can't be faked.
And from the expressions of the soldiers, it can be seen that they are not unconscious puppets, but real "humans".
This is good news for Roland.
Because this means that the combat effectiveness of this army will be greatly increased.
Perhaps you can imagine which army will be stronger, a puppet army with no ability to think, or an army with the ability to think independently?
[Ding, this recruitment has been completed. Number: 178, remaining recruitment number today: 22. 】
【Shadow Legion Infantry】
Level: 50
Description: An elite Shadow Legion infantry with a small amount of shadow power.
Skill: Shadow Blade, Nightfall
"Well, it turns out that the recruitment is over........."
Just as Roland was thinking, he was suddenly awakened by the message that popped up in front of him.
He hurriedly looked up, only to see that the portal on the altar had disappeared, leaving only a pile of gray armored soldiers on the altar.
It seems that this recruitment has ended. There is only one chance to summon in a day, and now you can only wait until tomorrow. Prepare more magic crystals and recruit again.
Although this time it was not possible to recruit 200 Shadow Legionnaires.
But with just over a hundred magic crystals, 178 soldiers can be recruited, which is already a good result.
"Hello, Your Majesty, the Shadow Legion is here to report."
Meanwhile. The shadow legionnaires walked up to him quickly, leaning slightly, respectfully exercising the etiquette of a soldier meeting a general.
"The King? Wait a minute...... I am not a king. ”
Hearing this title, Roland couldn't help but be taken aback.
If it's just in this no-man's land, there's nothing wrong with that. But if you go to the outside world, I'm afraid that shouting like this will cause some other problems.
"Don't call me Your Majesty...... Call me Lord Lord. ”
Roland hesitated, but finally corrected what the guys called him.
At this time, he preferred to let these guys call him Lord Lord, rather than His Majesty the King.
"Yes, my lord."
In response to Roland's order, the soldiers of the Shadow Legion immediately carried it out without hesitation, changing the name given to him.
"Wait...... It always feels like something is missing. ”
Suddenly, Roland looked at the neat line of more than 100 people in front of him, and always felt something, as if something was missing.
By the way, since you have a complete army, you should need a figure to lead them.
However, based on this information, Roland immediately thought of another purple king card [Army Commander].
Although the rank of the army leader is a bit low, he is the only candidate with the ability to dominate among all the card creatures, making him a great fit to lead these shadow legionnaires.
"Summoning the Commander of the Army."
Suddenly, Roland hurriedly switched out the purple king card and said in a low voice
With a buzz, a burly army commander emerged not far in front of him.
"My master, what is the matter with summoning me?"
"Well, I thought you could lead these soldiers, no problem, right?"
Roland patted the army commander on the shoulder and said.
Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he said solemnly, "But I can't call you number one or anything now...... Maybe it's time to give you a name...... Let's call it Hoggs. ”
"Thank you to my master for giving me my name...... Hoggs will certainly complete the task that his master has given me. ”
Hearing this, Hoggs, the commander of the army, immediately had a look of shock in his eyes, and he was stunned for a while before he reacted.
But after Roland gave Hogues his name, some changes changed on the army commander's information panel.
For example, there is an extra Hoggs suffix in the name, and a title of "General".
