Chapter 51: Reloading the Ghoul Servant
"You can continue to recruit demon servants, and if you have a thousand heavily armed ghouls, you might even be able to kill dragons. Worried about Downton's quarrel with the Grimoire, Celes quickly diverted the subject.
"Ghoul legion? That's a good idea. Homer muttered, pondering the feasibility of the plan.
"Go check the other wooden crates, if it's all of this light infantry armor, let's go to the next storeroom. Downton carried his saber and never gave up his vigilance, but unfortunately he couldn't find the material record sheet, otherwise he could save a lot of effort.
Of course, it is also a pleasure to search for loot in person.
Celes violently disassembled, drifted all the way, blasted open hundreds of crates with phosphorus rockets, and then dragged Downton to the second armory.
Homer opened the lock, and the Banshee of Death couldn't wait to float in, and after placing a light on the ceiling, she found that the shelves were still stacked with long wooden boxes, but they were larger.
"Saint-Gerdelanian Empire, Seventeenth Army of the North, Ninth Thousand Infantry Regiment, No. 238. ”
Glancing at the text on the lid, Downton pried open the wooden box with his saber.
A set of black heavy armor slept inside, and even if there was some dust and a slight rust, it still couldn't cover the heavy mountain breath.
Whether it is the workmanship or the material, the armor looks simple, low-key, and has a heavy flavor, which makes people feel full of security at a glance.
Downton picked up the helmet and found it much lighter than expected.
"The Warrior hoplite armor uses the forging process of the Rock Hammer Dwarf and is doped with a small amount of rare metals, which greatly reduces the weight while ensuring the defense. "The encyclopedia of the magic book did not disappoint Downton, and it was popular science again.
"This infantry armor not only reduces the burden on the soldiers, but also allows them to have a certain speed on the battlefield without being beaten like a target. ”
"Great armor. Downton admired.
Hoplites are always the most defensive class on the battlefield, but their huge weight, slow speed, logistical pressure, and huge manufacturing costs have limited their development, so the major empires are trying to overcome or find ways to replace them.
"How can there be 800 sets?"
Downton took a quick look and found that more than half of the boxes were stored with light cavalry armor and horse armor used by war horses, and he couldn't help but pursed the corners of his mouth.
"Be content, it takes at least ten times as much time and money to forge such a set of warrior heavy equipment as that kind of warrior light equipment, and I estimate that if Jutland was not at war with Saint Laurent at the time, you wouldn't even be able to see fifty sets. Homer guessed right, if it weren't for that huge accident in the war, the equipment would have been sent to the front line soon.
"When you have time, tell me about the origin of this dungeon. Downton didn't have time to listen now, so he called over to Four and Five, ready to put on their armor.
"Wait, go find those hundred-man gear. Homer stopped Downton, "The grassroots officers of the major empires are almost all magicians, in order to protect them, plus highlight their identities and motivate ordinary soldiers to move forward, the military department specially customized more haode equipment for them. ”
"Is that so?" cried Serex, who found a hundred chests painted in red and black on the corner shelves on the east side.
This is a hundred-year-long special armor, which belongs to the excellent mid-grade level, a set is worth 20,000 gold marks, not only has better protection performance, but also engraves a rune array, and attaches a magical effect of increasing endurance.
Naturally, after such a long time, the rune array had already broken down due to rust, but its own defense power had not weakened.
Downton looked at it and found that the difference with the Warrior hoplite armor was that the overall paint was dark red, the armor was a third thicker, and the chest represented the insignia of the empire larger, covering almost the entire left chest.
"They're called 'Hundred Warriors'. Homer introduced, causing Celes to smash the chest, and then six mist-like elemental arms stretched out from the tome, lifting the armor to drape the servant.
"Wait!" Downton put the normal helmet in his hand over Five's head.
"What's wrong?" Homer wondered.
Celestia picked up a certain helmet, tried it on, felt a little heavy, and floated to Downton, put it on him, and then admired it up and down.
"It's too wasteful, there's no need for a demon servant to wear this, just an ordinary warrior can be reloaded. "Downton's thrifty habits have flinched.
Homer casts a series of red exclamation marks to indicate the unexpected and laughing and crying!
"Four and Five are so pathetic!" Serex nodded hurriedly, a hundred in agreement.
"No way, there are too few Hundred Warrior suits. Downton was also helpless.
"Fortunately, the demon servants have no wisdom, and even if they hear this, they don't feel it, otherwise you would have rebelled against them!" Homer teased, "I understand what you mean, you want to repent of the low-level ghoul servants and give them use, right?"
"Hmm!" Downton tugged at his helmet, "Can the skeletons summoned by Celes last a long time?"
"Not for the time being, her rank is too low, even if she summons a skeleton soldier, she is still a miscellaneous fish, I am ready to wait for her rank to be higher, arrange a summoning array, perform an undead ritual, and summon a permanent high-level undead guard. "Homer has already arranged every stage of Celes's learning, and the summoning ritual is also a must.
"Hmm!" Downton stopped talking, after all, the Grimoire was much more professional than himself.
"Put it on and let me see, it looks cool!" Celes picked up her breastplate to help Downton put it on, the tip of her nose covered in sweat and looked excited.
"This model is not right, it is too big. Homer's elemental arm rummaged through the wooden box, picked one of similar size, and grabbed it.
The two breastplates at the front and back were closed to protect the upper body, and then fastened by ten belt buckles located on the ribs, followed by the giggles and leg armor, which were all dragon scales, one covering the other, and such a shape made it easier to move the limbs.
Downton put on his combat boots and jumped a few times, and the elemental arm handed the armor over, and he reached out and inserted it.
The Grimoire's elemental arms are so flexible that they can even draw elaborate magic arrays, let alone simply get dressed.
In just five seconds, Downton was dressed in armor and wrapped in a black tin can.
After the helmet's overcover armor was lowered, only a two-finger-wide gap was exposed in the eye, and the field of vision was suddenly much smaller, and the exhaled air was blocked by the visor, making the cheeks feel warm.
"The full suit weighs about fifty pounds, and with it, I can't use the Stone Skin Elixir, or it will be too heavy. Downton ran a few steps, trampling on the ground, and made a thumping sound like a war drum.
Punching, turning, kicking, Downton did simple movements, because it was not tailor-made, so it was a little uncomfortable.
"Let's make do with it first, after all, this is overused, after solving the Robinson trio and completely taking the dungeon, let's go to the royal capital and customize a set of exclusive perfect-level equipment. "Homer is not satisfied, how can the owner of the Magic Book wear such a thing, it is too expensive.
"I think it's good!" Celestia was very satisfied, Downton used to eat very poorly because of the money, so his body was slightly thin and thin, but after wearing this set of heavy armor, he looked like an iron puppet, full of solid texture.
"I'm only sixteen years old, and I'm still growing up, okay? "Downton's smallholder mentality hasn't changed.
"We're not short of money. Homer's speech was still domineering, "I'm an encyclopedia, even without the wealth of this dungeon, making money is not a problem." ”
Celes applauded, and the Grimoire's attitude of being so confident that it seemed to be taken for granted made the Banshee of Death feel cool.
"Go to the next armory!" Downton lifted his visor, not going to take it off, but as a weight-bearing exercise.
Homer didn't dissuade him, this weight would not affect Downton's development, but he would have to prepare recipes and exercise jihua, which would allow him to lay a better foundation and make his body grow more perfectly.
The third storeroom contained a large number of quilts and winter clothes tents to protect against the cold, but they were all rotten and smelled musty.
The fourth storehouse did not disappoint, it was full of good things, weapons from the Warrior series of a water, sabers, short swords, spears, and double-layered tower shields that matched the heavy load, neatly placed on the shelves.
The tower shield is about thirty pounds, a meter long, and is kite-shaped, with serrated edges, which can defend against a third of the body.
Downton pulled out a warrior's saber and swung it twice, feeling very comfortable, with a slightly curved shape and center of gravity, which was conducive to slashing.
There is no doubt that this is an armor-piercing weapon, and as for the short sword, which is less than half a meter, it is used by soldiers to defend themselves.
"See, the shield can be hung on the groove of the gauntlet, so you don't have to hold it all the time, although it is only a small detail, but it also reflects the excellence of the Jutland Empire's military technology. "There really aren't many things that can amaze Homer.
There were bundles of arrows in some of the boxes, roughly estimated to be in the tens of thousands, but the wooden shafts were brittle, and with a little force, they would break, and they were obviously unusable.
But that's a problem. It can't affect Downton's mood anymore.
"This time the harvest is too great. After inspecting the armory, Downton laughed, and with these armed ghoul servants, he was confident that he would be able to attack the bank that would be overrun by the spiders.
"In order to impact the second order of the soul and survive the elemental repulsion, you also need to strengthen your defenses, do you want to sacrifice in exchange for a protective divine technique?"
"Any recommendations?" As a wild paladin, Downton had little idea about divine knowledge
