The next day, Charlie goes to find Eliza and is stopped by Hank.
Hank said politely: "Mr. Charlie, I'm very sorry, but the master is not awake yet, and he can't meet you for the time being." ”
It seems that the consumption of maintaining the illusion is really not small, no wonder her back was so weak at the beginning, she was injured herself, Charlie couldn't help but feel a trace of guilt.
"Mr. Hank, can I do something for the boss?"
Hank smiled: "Just keep it in the best shape, the master needs you, everything will be said when she wakes up!"
Cha Li thought for a while, and then asked, "The boss once mentioned that she found something in the hands of the devil that would help her recover from her injuries, can you tell me what it is?"
Hearing this, a rare mood swing appeared on Hank's calm face, and he said: "That's Hell Black Crystal, which is a high-energy magic crystal that can replenish the devil's magic energy consumption, and has a very strong tonic effect on both the devil and the demon. ”
Charlie asked, "Do you mean that the black crystal can replenish the black mist emitted by the devil?
"Yes. ”
This news made Charlie raise the threat of the devil to another level, the strongest thing about the devil is that as long as the magic energy is not exhausted, it is in an invulnerable state, and now with this kind of thing to supplement, it is quite troublesome.
Charlie nodded and said, "Understood, I'll come to visit the boss tomorrow." ”
Back at the residence, Charlie began to think about how to search for these resources, to be honest, it may be difficult to find, because, none of the devils that Charlie worked hard to kill carried this kind of resources, so does it mean that Charlie can't beat any of the devils with Hell Sombra?
Either way, Eliza's handing over the team to him represents a kind of trust that she can't give her advice now, and that she can try to think independently and solve the problem at hand.
The strategic objectives have long been clear:
First, do everything you can to collect Hell Sombra;
Second, increase the strength of Twilight Town and absorb more Hell monsters to join your team;
Those devils don't follow the rules, but for Charlie, it's good news, which means that he doesn't have to be limited by the rules to recruit more monsters to work for him.
Soon, Charlie gathered all the monsters of hell and saw a group of vicious monsters bowing down in front of him, and there was a surging passion running in his veins.
It can be said that these hellish monsters are one of the best armies Charlie has ever seen.
They are not picky eaters, as long as it is high-energy, they can eat anything, and in extreme cases, even ores and wood that contain energy;
They are easy to satisfy, two full meals a day, they have combat effectiveness, morale, and can make them work for you in life and death, unlike human soldiers, who have all kinds of endless desires, fears, weaknesses, and mood swings.
They are made for war, and any organ in their body is beneficial to battle, take the jackal brute as an analogy: the jackal has three stomachs, two digestive stomachs, one for digesting organic matter, one for digesting any energy-rich substance, and in addition to this, it also has a reserve stomach for storing indigestible food, so that the gnolls can become extremely endurance on the battlefield, adapt to various difficult environments, and continue to fight for a long time.
Besides
That's what makes them scary, a race that is only built to fight, with few weaknesses, and the only way to defeat them is by hard power.
Then, Charlie began to take stock of the strength of this team, find a way to quantify them, and build a complete data model for Charlie to analyze the battle situation in real time.
At present, there are a total of 74 Hell Monsters under his command, and 30 of them have been injured to varying degrees, but for this kind of Hell Monsters, non-fatal injuries will not affect their combat status, but will easily provoke them and burst out more violent combat power.
Among the 74 monsters, including 26 Gnolls, 8 Eye Demons, 13 Abyss Inferior Demons, 17 Hellhounds, and 10 Rat Demons, it is a team that prefers hand-to-hand combat.
The configuration of the troops is relatively simple, the model is easy to build, and soon the chip digitizes the entire team, and the corresponding problems are also exposed.
The lack of ranged combat classes and the lack of mages is an obvious problem, in fact, this problem is easy to solve, Charlie himself can be used as two or three intermediate mages, and he also has an elven guard at his disposal, if the elves can cooperate with the attack of the hell monsters, they can build a relatively perfect team.
But the question is how to bring the two forces together that they regard as enemies, especially since the Patriarch of the Green Wind died at the hands of the Great Devil, and the Sunset Elves have already made these creatures that smell of hell disgust and hatred to their bones.
Both for the Hell Monsters and for the Elves, they need a higher reputation to try to solve the problem, and now Charlie has not fully mastered the Hell Monsters, nor has he completely replaced the position of the Sunset Elf Patriarch, so this question is still in the air.
After building the team's data model, Charlie began to try to increase his control over the troops, to see if he could command them to play some tactical coordination, instead of rushing forward and fighting for his life and muscles.
According to Eliza, the Devil's Corps is well-trained, treacherous, and elusive, but Charlie didn't see this, perhaps because these trainings would not be popularized to cannon fodder.
"Do you have names?" Charlie asked a gnolla in the language of hell.
Seeing Charlie in a black robe, the jackal, who was obviously a head taller than him, was a little nervous, not only because Charlie suddenly asked, but also because he asked a question that he had never encountered before.
"Old ...... Boss, I'm ...... It's called Chahak. ”
"Don't you have a last name?"
Chahak looked dazed, not knowing what Charlie meant, and subconsciously looked at the gnoll mage next to him, this is the only gnoll man in the entire team who has broken the staff, compared to other gnolls, he is a circle smaller, but his momentum is not weak.
The gnoll mage continued: "My lord, the society of the gnoll people does not have the concept of family, and the relationship between a group is relatively chaotic, and the name only represents a title to distinguish you, me and him. ”
It's good to find someone who can communicate.
Charlie turned his head and asked, "What's your name?"
"Boss, my name is Cappuccino. ”
"Cappuccino?" Charlie was stunned, if there was something in his mouth, he was afraid that it would squirt out directly.
Could it be that Hell also has a time-traveler from Earth? On Earth, the name represents an extremely delicious coffee.
Cappuccino sneered and said, "This is the name I saw in an ancient book, it represents a drink, I think this name is very good, boss, you see I am a gnoll mage, 1000 gnoll people can produce a mage, so, I am always different from other gnolls, and besides, I am a gourmet, and I make the best meat soup." ”
"Nice name, Cappuccino, can you tell me the story of your gnolls?"
Cappuccino gave Charlie a suspicious look and said, "Boss, why are you concerned about the Gnoll's business?"
Seeing that the gnolls around him pricked up their ears, Charlie knew that they were all concerned about this issue, so he muttered: "You all know that this is a completely new plane, it is primitive, fragile, rich in resources, and the lord values it very much.
However, this is a very, very long distance from Hell, and it is impossible for the Lord to build a stable dimensional transmission channel, because the cost of building a channel may require all the resources of this plane to be invested.
You gnolls have become the most suitable choice, and every gnolls who have successfully reached this plane are a force to be cherished, so your chance has come.
I'm going to build a corps, and I need some officers who have brains and can carry out my orders. ”
The words immediately aroused the attention of this group of hell monsters.
Thus, Cappuccino began his statement: "Actually, we gnolls are not native creatures of hell, we have our own homeland, and that was a long, long time ago, and perhaps many new generation of gnolls have forgotten some of the stories of our ancestors......"
Charlie found that these hellish monsters have a certain degree of intelligence, and their intelligence is even beyond Charlie's imagination, but their thinking is a little rigid and they don't like to think, because the devil treats them as cannon fodder, so that their understanding and role of their abilities form a kind of thinking inertia, which is really a bit wasteful, maybe they are too ordinary in hell, and the number is also flooded.
Among these hellish monsters, the Eye Demon has the highest intelligence, and almost every one of them can understand Charlie's instilled combat intent, but it can't speak, and it's not a proper herald.
The Abyssal Inferior Demon has the lowest intelligence, which may have a lot to do with the fact that it comes from the Chaos faction.
The Evil Chaos camp is represented by demons, they are irritable, malevolent, arbitrary, violent, immoral and unpredictable, they are committed to destroying and destroying everything, including their own kind, they are likely to have a good relationship with you one moment, the next moment they will kill you, they may also play a self-destruction at any time, and then spend a long time recovering and reborn from the chasm of the abyss, it can be said that the demons of the abyss are a type of complete madness, the stronger the more crazy they are.
The fact that the devil can be trained by the devil to distinguish between friend and foe is a great improvement.
After a round of comparison, Charlie found that the gnolls, which are all made of muscles, have become the best choice, most of them may have low intelligence, similar to hellhounds and rat demons, and only know how to eat, fight, and sleep, but there are some special cases among them that are close to the IQ of ordinary humans.
Cappuccino, for example, can understand speech and can communicate quickly with its peers, which is where its value lies.
Charlie said solemnly: "Cappuccino, I'm going to give you a task to see if you really meet my requirements......"
