Chapter 249: The Imperial Family (I)
The team headed northeast. The leader of the team is now Zola, and his swordsmanship, even the two Black Iron Sword Saints, is also convinced. There was no problem with the command of the team. With such a small team, individual combat ability is more important.
Saleen's luck seems to have picked up again, and along the way, Zola, with his keen instincts, has evaded many patrols from the Tangulas Empire. Because the team was to the east, it was too far away from the main war zone, and the few poor magicians of the Tangulas Empire were not located in this area, let alone powerful magicians.
As the Blood Knights converged to the southwest to storm a city in the upper reaches of the Chishui River, Salin and his party traveled between dozens of large and small towns to reach the outskirts of the Purgatory Desert.
It's not entirely a matter of ability, it's definitely a matter of luck. With dozens of towns, tens of thousands of garrisons, and the smallest towns will have more than four hundred soldiers stationed, the Tangulas Empire has made a bloody effort to occupy every inch of the Titans.
The Purgatory Desert is in the center of the Myers continent, with a radius of thousands of miles, and the terrain on the periphery is complex, but at least half of it is the Gobi. It is said that it was here that the goddess Myers fell. Salin and the others had to cross more than 200 miles of stone mountains. This stone mountain was supposed to be an earthy hill, but I don't know what the forbidden spell caused it, and the soil was completely melted and crystallized.
This is a completely lifeless zone, but it is much safer, and there are poisonous scorpion monsters in the Gobi, although there are remnants of water sources, but it is not worth the risk. There are very few people in Rex's belt, and they can be kept alive by the water made by the magician.
The adventuring party was unable to enter the depths of the Purgatory Desert because they did not have as many skeleton horses as Salen. Before Salin came out, the skeleton horses sealed in the Green Ghost were two each. The skeleton horses summoned by these three kings will gradually weaken due to the distance from Metatrin City, and eventually return to the undead plane.
Even with the sealing ability of the green ghost, it would take half a year to deal with everything. It's already November, and there are still about four months to go.
Entering the brown rocky mountain area, Rex was almost recovered, and then ordered the team to rest.
This time it was an adjustment break, and Rex took out the equipment in the Ring of the HRE and set up a sturdy camp. The Titan is now in chaos, and who knows if a routed army will enter here to take refuge.
All eight constructed golems were released, two were responsible for the magic chariot, and the remaining six patrolled. Two small flying puppets were released from the sky to be on guard, and four alchemy crossbows were set up at the four corners of the camp. Rex took out a hundred battle puppets in one go, and the ability of this battle puppet can only be exerted by the manipulation of the mage, in the case of free fighting. The combat power is only equivalent to that of a high-level swordsman, but the consumption will not be reduced by half a point.
Because the camp was located in the mountains, instead of erecting arrow towers, battle golems were sent to climb the nearby mountainside and set up strong crossbows. None of the swordsmen and juggernauts participated in the patrol, and the two mages took turns controlling the flying golems, and the swordsmen began to take a real break.
Continuous fighting and rushing make everyone mentally exhausted, and if you don't adjust, when you enter the desert, you will be in a bad state.
Rex didn't have the heart to think about Saleen at this time, she took out fourteen sets of real magic armor and put them on for everyone.
The so-called real magic armor can only be worn by intermediate swordsmen and above. It takes a certain amount of mental power to bring out the true defensive power of the armor.
The fourteen sets of armor were of the same style, a closed helmet carved out of a single piece of metal, the visor was movable and could be pushed onto it, the magic circle carved on the inside of the mask allowed the swordsman to breathe freely, and the eyes were polished crystal stones. The lining of the helmet is made of the skin of a sixth-level demonic beast, and the ears are thickened for protection. A separate magic array is set up to block strong vibrations. At the same time, these two magic arrays also have a sound transmission function.
An ordinary magic helmet, the magic array in both ears can only wear simple syllables, and requires officers to use a magic war drum to transmit information, and this high-level helmet can talk freely within a few miles.
The hideous metal mask is covered with fine metal scales, and it is difficult for crossbow arrows fired from any angle to penetrate the mask.
The upper body of the armor is covered with large thick armor leaves, with small arm shields on both arms, and heart guards polished to a non-reflective state on the chest. The waist is wide with a slap, and it has a similar design to the magic robe, but it is buttoned up at the back of the waist, and the front part is hidden under the nail leaf.
Behind the magic armor, there is a row of metal spikes that run down the spine. In fact, this is to prevent damage to the spine, and at the same time, it is impossible for someone to carry it up. The essence of this row of metal spikes is to thicken several layers of defense, and at the same time have a supporting effect.
When a soldier in magical armor stands still, almost all of the weight is borne by this metal bone, and the spikes extend to the base of the two boots, allowing the soldier to share a certain amount of weight when moving.
The outer arms of the magic armor have two closed grooves on each side, which can be used to inlay magical equipment, such as small alchemy crossbows. These two grooves can also be used as weapons in their own right, allowing the soldier to fend off enemy weapon slashes with a wave of his arm.
The lower body of the armor still adopts Qin Yin's skirt armor style, so that the soldiers can ride the war horse flexibly. The scabbard of the dagger was inserted directly on the outside of the boot, rather than hanging from the waist. The Qin Yin short sword is similar to the triangular sword. It is an armor-piercing weapon, and when the enemy's armor is too thick and difficult to penetrate, it can be stabbed with a short sword, which requires strong hand-to-hand combat ability to exert a penetrating effect.
The most peculiar of all are a pair of gloves with long ends that are pierced directly into the metal bracers. The back is sewn with small pieces of demonic beast bones, which not only have high defense, but also do not affect the dexterity of the soldiers' hands.
Even ordinary magicians should envy these gloves when they see them, because they are sewn from high-grade magical beast skin, and no seams can be seen on the outside.
Salin looked at the hideous black armor and asked with some envy: "Is this ......?"
"The spirit snake armor of the royal family of Gryukos, all the materials are collected from the demon snake. The most flexible magic armor on the continent, each set of armor requires ten magicians to refine non-stop, and it takes a month to make a set. Rex answered Saleen's question, pride in his eyes.
The symbol of the royal family of Gryukos is the six-winged flying snake, but the six-winged flying snake has long disappeared in this plane, and the Grükos family has a place to raise spirit snakes in the royal fief south of Holy Rock City, and those spirit snakes also have the blood of the six-winged flying snake, which can provide high-level magic materials.
However, the lifespan of the snake is as long as 100 years, and the Grucus family is not allowed to slaughter or kill the snake. You can only wait for the spirit snake to die of old age before you can take the materials. Raising a spirit snake requires feeding the demon core, and the consumption is also large, so the royal family can only make dozens of sets of this armor every year.
Except for a number of those built at the time of the founding of the country, for thousands of years, the snake armor made by the Gryukos family was not enough to equip a swordsman battalion.
Even so, this kind of armor from the Qin Yin royal family was also very enviable, and the Yunliu people had always wanted to get this kind of armor, and made countless exchange requests, all of which were rejected by the Grükos royal family.
Rex obviously has the right and technology to create this kind of armor, because the set of spirit snake armor given to Storm Bear is completely tailor-made. Definitely not taken straight out of the warehouse.
Although the outer metal of this snake Kai is expensive, what is more precious is the inner lining of the spirit snake skin. It is this layer of spiritual snake skin that gives the warrior a strong ability to resist blows.
Salin swallowed, every empire has powerful weapons, but this armor of Qin Yin is unique among the four empires.
The Snake Camp of the Gryukos Royal Family is not in Holy Rock City, but in the permanent fief of the royal family five hundred miles south of Holy Rock City. There are the tombs of the emperors of the Grükos family, as well as the most loyal people, fertile land, and a large number of mages. After Qin Yin founded the country, the Spirit Snake Battalion never left their fiefdom.
The Bidamian Basin, the most mysterious land on the continent, is large enough to feed tens of millions of people, and for thousands of years, no other country has had access to it.
Even Qin Yin's emperor could not mobilize the Spirit Snake Battalion, which was the force responsible for the foundation of the Grykos family, and as long as the Bidamia Basin did not fall, then the Grukos family could make a comeback at any time.
However, the spirit snake Kai, the royal family still has the right to make it themselves, and every year from the Bidamia Basin will send a set of armor materials to Holy Rock City. This set of materials, in addition to being used to make a set of spirit snake armor, also has the remaining repair materials. The set of the violent bear is enough for two warriors to refine the spirit snake armor.
Rex smiled and said, "I can't give this to you, and I don't have the right to do it." ”
Salin laughed dryly and said, "Zola's set?"
"That set is different, it is not the material of the spirit snake, and the magic array is also different. You can imitate, as long as you have enough Warcraft materials. ”
After a little thought in his heart, Salin understood that Rex was giving himself a favor. Because he had enough Warcraft materials, the red krill hunted in the Frozen Sea provided too many carapaces. These carapaces are definitely not as good as the spirit snakes of level six and above, but after repeated refining, they can definitely refine materials of similar materials.
This kind of all-magic armor is so important, no wonder Rex also brought ten swordsmen out. This is a sword master with this set of armor, and his combat power is immediately raised to the level of a sword master, in addition to not being able to fly short distances, whether it is attack or defense, this is a sword master can be used as a sword master.
Salin knew the meaning of a sword master in the army, and the silver sword master rushed into Rex's camp alone, wanting to kill Rex, if it wasn't for the trap set by Fei Lun and others, Rex, who couldn't fly long distances, would be in big trouble.
Originally, Salin had a lot of headaches for the Blood Knights of the Holy See, but if there were magic warriors, the problem would be much simpler.
