Chapter 25 War Beasts

On the night of the third day, Marvin left the forward base alone and rushed to Sir Cocut's territory in the dark. Sir Cokart is his father and the brother-in-law of Baron Fossa, although Sir was only level 9 in combat power at the peak of his youth, but his surname and this marriage guarantee him a knighthood, and in Baron Fosa's system, his status is higher than that of Huber and Gaoyo, only worse than Mintai.

It was still a chaotic plane, and wars between nobles, though not as large and frequent as Norland, were the norm. There are so many excuses for the nobles to go to war, such as your horse stepping on my seedlings, whether it is reasonable or not, as long as it is an excuse.

The reason for the real war must be that one side has a crush on something from the other, such as land, mines, some kind of specialty, or trade routes, etc., and those nobles who went to war because they fell in love with the daughter or woman of the opponent were basically wiped out in the long history of war on the mainland.

So Mintae, who has both personal force and can lead troops to fight, is indispensable. Sir Cokart himself was well aware of this, for he had always been a very realistic and analytical man. Relying on nepotism alone will not be able to sit firmly in his rich fiefdom.

Marvin went to Kokart because of this characteristic of Sir in order to persuade him to side with the invaders, at least to give help and support in secret. He was confident that he would be able to convince Sir Kokat that his only son had now become a fallen sorcerer, a mortal enemy of the god of courage.

Quicksand can provide an avenue for faith, which is another crucial reason. This shows that this god of the different plane is strong enough to penetrate Cheng Dù of the original plane. In the plane war, the native people treat the invaders as if they were all exterminated, but the main reason is the clear attitude of the plane gods. Because no matter how powerful the invaders are, as long as the gods are willing to pay a sufficient price, they can naturally inflict heavy losses on the invaders, or at least drive them away.

But these invaders are different, although their strength is much weaker than those invaders in history, they can provide faith! This means that in the higher level of competition, the gods of the original plane not only lose their overwhelming advantage, but may be at a disadvantage. Marven has clearly experienced this with his own experience.

After Marven left, Richard was still flipping through the map under the lamp, figuring out where to attack next. There are already more dense markings on the map, all of which are the results of recent interrogations. Richard was deliberating on it when his heart suddenly moved, and he raised his head and looked out the window at the dark forest. Just now, the brood received news that it had evolved into a mature body and was now a first-order brood. And it said that if Richard had time, it would be better to see him at once. Richard needed to decide the next evolutionary direction for it.

Richard immediately put down what he was doing and went out in his clothes. A few kilometers of road is less than half an hour for him. As soon as he left the forward base, two huge worker bees flew head-on, startling Richard. Even during the day, it would be quite frightening to see a giant bee with a body length of more than one meter. Fortunately, Richard immediately sensed in his consciousness that this was the worker bee created by the brood, and it belonged to the coolies who helped it forage for food and build the nest.

Led by the worker bees, Richard came to a clearing at the edge of the forest, then looked up and looked at the brood, which was more than six meters long and nearly three meters tall and wide, completely speechless.

In less than four days since the brood was born, it had gone from a small creature the size of a palm to a terrifyingly large creature that made it difficult for Richard to adapt for a while.

He first walked around the brood, taking a closer look at the strange contract creature. The brood is still covered in the black carapace of the oil-shell, and the belly still occupies two-thirds of the body, but it is not as deformed as it was at the beginning. Its abdomen was still folded, and it fluttered slightly with its breathing. The head of the brood is about the same size as before, but on the current body, it is almost impossible to spot. The blade was the same size as before, and now it seems that it has been transformed from a weapon of battle into a tool for pure eating. In terms of power, the Brood's psychic shock and acid spit are far more powerful than a pair of giant blades. Its six joints are short, thick and powerful, and can completely drag a huge body, of course, don't count on speed.

"Brood, has there been any change since it evolved into a mature body? Looking at your current form, it can't be that you have added some new ability to attack fortifications, right?" Richard eagerly awaited.

The voice of the brood sounded in Richard's consciousness: "No, master. I don't participate in the battle myself, and the only means of attack are mental shock and acid spitting. But this is my ability to protect myself, and attacking the enemy is beyond my own power. I can only attack the enemy if they are within thirty meters, and if they escape, I will not be able to catch up with them at my current speed. However, after becoming a full-fledged entity, I have the ability to create zào combat units, and you can also consider them as warriors. ”

"Combat units?" was a somewhat incomprehensible concept for Richard, "like those worker bees?"

The brood explains: "Some similar, but not identical. The worker bee is the only unit that can create a zào when I am a larvae, and it has only a very limited combat power, which is about the same as a strong wild wolf, and a low-level human warrior with full equipment can easily suppress them. The role of the worker bees is mainly to collect food for me and provide limited protection. ”

Richard nodded. The appearance of a giant bee that is more than a meter long like a worker bee is very scary, but that's about it. There are many more terrifying beings in the alien race than it. Aside from a limited number of paralyzing toxins, worker bees have no other special means of attack. A level 5 warrior with a shield and sword can easily deal with several worker bees.

The brood continues: "But the combat unit is different, its entire mission is to fight until the end of life. As a first-order mature body, I can now create three combat units per day, and all the energy stored in my body can create ten combat units. Originally, I could only create a zào to create a primitive combat unit, but because I got some special food when I was a young body, I can now create a zào combat unit with an additional enhancement option. This is the material for the combat unit, and the original template is a generic template that I created based on this plane environment, and you can modify it as needed as I continue to level up in the future. ”

Richard's mind immediately appeared several three-dimensional drawings of combat units, as well as a large amount of related information.

It is a creature that bears some resemblance to a small geolosaurus, with a pair of thick and powerful hind legs that move in a bipedal running fashion. Its forelimbs are similar to the blades of the brood, and it has an extremely developed, huge mouth full of sharp teeth, and even the whole body plate armor can bite through it with a bite! It is the same size as a large wild wolf, and has a ferocious short-range explosive power, and the maximum speed can exceed 60 kilometers an hour, which is faster than most war horses.

In a one-on-one situation, its combat power is roughly equivalent to that of a human level 5 veteran. But a fifth-level veteran needs years of training and qualified basic equipment, while combat units can appear three a day. When the brood is upgraded, the production speed will be further increased. This basic combat unit is called the Swift War Beast by the brood.

The brood can also provide an additional strength boost to the basic Swift Warbeast, increasing its base strength by 20%. The new Swift Beast is noticeably thicker than the basic Swiftmon. They can basically defeat level 5 veterans, and their combat effectiveness is between level 6 and level 7. The power type velope beast consumes more energy from the brood, so the energy of the brood can only produce eight power type velociraptor beasts when it is full after eating, but the production cycle is the same, three a day.

The price that war beasts can grow quickly is their short one-year life.

Richard had long been full of expectations for the brood, but he didn't expect the brood to be much more powerful than he originally expected! Just the newly mature brood could create a swift war beast with 100 heads equivalent to elite veterans in just over a month! It can be said that the most difficult problem of insufficient military strength to overcome in the early stage of stepping into an unfamiliar plane, the brood has solved most of it for him. The premise is nothing more than to feed the brood.

It doesn't seem that difficult.

After entering the mature body, as the number of tron units increases, the brood will continue to grow and advance. Each time the rank is raised, there will be more energy, and the brood itself can be strengthened. At the same time, feeding the brood with special foods, such as magic crystals and enchanted items, as well as powerful creatures such as earth-walking dragons, draconians, or hydra lizards, can speed up the process of the brood's advancement. And the brood has a chance to crack the mysteries of powerful creatures, thus providing more reinforcements for combat units. For example, Strength Enhancement is a special additional enhancement option created by the Brood after devouring a powerful creature whose main trait is strength.

Unbeknownst to Richard, of course, it was Sir Mintai who made this special contribution to the brood.

Considering that there was still quicksand in the team, Richard decided to take the elite route, so he said: "This batch of all the powerful swift war beasts of the Zào power type. Will the first batch be done tomorrow morning? I'm going to strike tomorrow. ”

"Wait a minute, you'll be able to get your first batch of beasts in ten minutes. The brood replied.
