Chapter 92 The Road of the Strong on
The core of the army is the brood, and now Richard finally understands why Van Lin would say that the brood is a weapon in dimensional warfare. For the sake of dimensional warfare, Richard decided to maximize the power of the brood to create Zào war units. With the brood in place, Richard will sooner or later have an innumerable army in his hands, so why let the brood go into battle in person? Facts have proved that as long as the number of elite soldiers is sufficient, and the difference in rank between the two sides is not too large, Richard can completely rely on the army in his hands to kill the strong men of the other side alive.
A person like Odom, who is also a strong fighter in the Sanctuary, if he can use the terrain to trap his mobility, use the magician to cause interference, and then use humanoid warriors to surround him, and match the periphery with long-range attackers, at most dozens of fighters can be killed or injured on the spot. What's more, Richard's humanoid warriors are mixed with many elite warriors, and there are also experienced and killing free Akmund warriors, and Free Akmund is also equipped with a magic crossbow.
When you have an army, you have to think about command. The intelligence and true talent that Richard gave him command was a windfall, and at least so far, Richard had not met anyone who could match him in tactical command.
But before the intelligence talent was upgraded again, Richard felt that tracking and commanding fifty targets at the same time was already the limit, even if the second consciousness was used, it would only add five more teams. This has already begun to be difficult when commanding a battle of 10,000 people, and the level of command refinement and even the mastery of the overall situation has decreased. The best scale is actually about 1,000 elite battles.
After much thought, Richard finally settled on his style of warfare. That's the wolf pack tactic, controlling the scale of each battle, and then using a series of endless grappling battles to weaken the powerful opponent little by little, and eventually eat the opponent. Richard didn't need to play more and less, one-on-one was enough. Only in this way can we give full play to our invincible superiority in commanding in the regional battlefield.
And in the end, the most important part finally arrived, and that was Richard's own strength!
Richard's main job is a magician and a constructor, and his personal combat power is mainly magical. The bloodline abilities include the Akmund bloodline and the elven bloodline, and the elven bloodline is divided into five types of abilities: natural, rejuvenating, moonpower, phantom star, and elemental. In the past, what kind of bloodline ability he was able to awaken was completely up to luck, but now it was different, the Deep Blue Series Meditation Technique could selectively strengthen the bloodline ability, which gave Richard countless choices. The meditation technique from the legendary mage is truly powerful.
So the question now in front of Richard is which bloodline to strengthen first. The main function of the restoration fù is to heal the first effect, while the elemental greatly enhances the magical power associated with the element. But after a little thought, Richard first gave up these two bloodlines. Needless to say, there are many ways to increase the power of magic, and the element is just one of them, and it is not irreplaceable. The stars that can increase the ability of the bloodline are extremely limited, and they cannot be used evenly. One day in the future, when Richard's magic power reaches its peak, he may come to think about the elemental bloodline.
The moon power is mainly awakened by the elven secret sword that Richard learned to use, and the more moon power is induced, the stronger the secret sword will be. For Richard, it wasn't necessary. Nature is different, not only does it make Richard's nature summoning spells more powerful, but it also allows Richard to better integrate with his surroundings, especially in environments such as forests and grasslands. This bloodline enhances Richard's perception and movement speed from the side, and resonates with real talents. And Richard's growing instinct for danger also comes from natural blood. These seemingly inconspicuous subtleties are the way to increase combat power, and when taken together, they can be much more useful than simply increasing the power of the fireball technique.
Then, it's the phantasm. Now two new branches have grown on the main trunk of the parhelic star, each with a young leaf on top. The power of the combination of the Phantom Star Bloodline and the Deep Blue Meditation was already well understood by Richard. So now he sent all the stars he could capture into the Phantom Star bloodline, even if it was to temporarily slow down the advancement of his magic power. Just because the Phantom Star Bloodline can permanently increase the speed of mana advancement, it is worth giving up the other bloodlines!
As Io said, rank is the real strength. But Richard believed that when the Phantom Star bloodline was strengthened to a certain extent, it would definitely give Yi and Russia a big surprise.
Finally, it's the Akmund bloodline.
That's where Richard gets a headache. The dark red, lava-like web within, seemed to hold infinite secrets. So far, Richard's luck has been quite good, and among the two bloodline abilities that have been awakened, even if it explodes, the blazing is absolutely powerful. But Richard didn't know what the third bloodline ability would be.
There were hundreds of abilities that had appeared in the Akmund bloodline, and Blazing was definitely a powerful ability among them. However, there is no pattern to the emergence of strong and weak abilities, and one can only depend on luck. In the history of the Akmund family, there are many examples of awakening extremely powerful bloodline abilities, but having to change jobs. The legendary Akmund bloodline from the demon has also inherited the demon's chaotic attributes, and no one knows when what kind of ability will appear.
However, Richard suddenly thought of a question, he didn't know what Gordon's bloodline ability was, and it seemed that he had never heard anyone talk about it.
After much thought, Richard decided to prioritize strengthening the Phantom Star ability. Rank is not omnipotent, but without hierarchy it is absolutely impossible.
Finally, there are various skills such as melee combat. Richard was not good at this, and there were many options to choose from, including the Elven Secret Sword, the Dark World Assassination Technique, and the Priest Fighting Technique. However, Richard didn't have much time to spend on this, except for skill-based martial arts, which required constant training to improve physical/physical strength in order to be effective, which was not suitable for him. Richard thought about it for a long time, but he didn't get anything for the time being. His mind suddenly moved, and a fundamental question came to mind: What is powerful, and what kind of strong path does he need to take?
There are many strong people that Richard has seen in his life, and the most powerful of them is naturally the legendary mage Su Hailun. Su Helen always looks like a strange elf, Richard only knows that she is very strong, but how strong she is, he can't see it. The only basis for judging was the sixth-order constructed dark blue aria on her body. Where the Deep Blue Aria came from and how effective it was remained a mystery to this day. But the legendary mage is a perfect example of the bloodline against the sky, the construction against the sky, and even the talent against the sky. Judging from the information I learned from Nereus's mouth recently, even the legendary mage is likely to be against the sky, and it is simply unreasonable if he is not strong.
So after Richard thought about it, he decisively excluded Su Helen from the learning goal, her strength could not be replicated......
Then came Gordon, Mordred, and White Night. Gordon's abilities remained a mystery to Richard, who had instinctively resisted knowing about the man. But Richard has a crush on Mordred, who has been picking him up since he was a child, and this man has always been silent, but absolutely powerful, although Richard doesn't know where he is strong. However, it can be seen from the way others privately call Mordred 'the Demon King' and the tone and demeanor in which he is mentioned. Moreover, among the thirteen knights of Gordon, the other knights were vaguely afraid of Mordred.
As for the White Night, although there was only one side, it left a deep impression on Richard. In her, Richard unexpectedly found a temperament similar to Mordred's. It's just that Mordred is already subtle and introverted, while White Night is wanton. It can be seen from Fasqi's reaction that night that Bai Ye's combat power is definitely much higher than her level. Perhaps she represents the path Richard should take. Richard didn't have a way to get to know Gordon and Mordred for a while, but he had a way to get to know White Nights.
That picture of life is a window to understand the white night.
Richard took out the blueprints of the Death of Life and studied them carefully under the magic lamp.
Richard had already been familiar with the structure diagram of the Annihilation of Life, and he had already thoroughly understood which magic array would have what effect. Even the magic array with superimposed functions, Richard had already figured out the principle. It's just that most of the lines and nodes need to condense a lot of mana, and Richard's current mana level is far from enough, so he can't do it. Moreover, it is very rare to mark the encrypted part of the magic array on this drawing of life destruction, which makes it easier for Richard to understand and comprehend.
In addition to the standard version of the build, those non-standard builds, even if they have the same function, are different from different builders. Many constructors like to add something purely confusing to the magic circle to make it more difficult to imitate.
There is an even more clever way to prevent others from analyzing and copying, that is, to recalculate a functional module of the magic array, and insert a useless formula into it, so that it will become a completely new functional module. If you don't know the formula, it's hard to copy this part, and you have to redesign the module instead. This technique is often used in some non-standard constructions that can be called masterpieces. When the magic math is clever enough to make the entire functional module extremely difficult to crack, it can take hundreds of years for an analyst to calculate. If you have that time to decipher the code, it is better to redesign a functional module.
But for most constructors, copying is a complete cost-off. Even if they don't have any new ideas, they can spend their whole lives just making a standard build, and it's not that they can make the same level of construction if they have enough magic, and they can't do many high-level builds. The encryption part is just to raise the bar and prevent some special constructs from being copied by ordinary magicians.
There is also an encryption module in Life Annihilation, but the drawings given by Bai Ye have listed the encryption formula, and with Richard's attainments, with the formula, it can be cracked with a little calculation. In fact, the real difficulty of this construction lies in the perverted requirements of the superimposed magic array in terms of drawing accuracy. This didn't bother Richard, but Richard was stuck at the magic level.
