Chapter 43: Chapter 42 Big Recruitment Day_l
Translator: 549690339 |
That night, Mu Yuan, with Dead Bone and ‘Bone Two’ enclosed within his mark, amulet around his neck, and the God Monster Crystal Lamp in his arms, cautiously took the long way home.
He didn’t encounter any ambushes.
Mu Yuan was relieved but, for some reason, felt a faint sense of regret.
Delusion! He loved peace above all else.
Upon returning home, Mu Yuan immediately turned on his computer. The materials that had been sent to his territory not long ago had already been moved by Dead Bone to a worn-out hut used as a warehouse, to avoid being exposed to the wind and the rain outside.
Dead Bone not only had a few skeleton soldiers guarding the hut, but he himself was also personally supervising, not letting even a fly sneak in, especially keeping an eye on a certain greedy Slime.
“Gurgle? Gurgle!”
Its vast body inflated, its big eyes turned into (▼-‘▼#), but seeing that Dead Bone was unmoved, it had to bounce away to find food on its own.
Mu Yuan arrived at the warehouse and first took out all the Remnant Souls while looking around.
“Indeed, it’s too shabby. Skeletons, after all, have no skills. No matter how much mending is done, there are still holes and gaps everywhere. Luckily, from today onwards, we also have a proper warehouse.”
Mu Yuan went to the Lord’s Altar outside with these Remnant Souls, and first enlisted the Little Skeletons, Slimes, and the Falcon one by one.
‘Ding!’
‘Reminder: You have consumed 10 one-star Remnant Souls and 50g Soul Sand, and have recruited the troop type ‘Little Skeleton’ xio.’
‘Reminder:…, you have recruited the troop type ‘Slime’ *10.’
‘Reminder:…, you have recruited the troop type ‘Falcon’ xi.’
Raggedly dressed, staggering Little Skeletons, one after another, emerged from the light of recruitment.
As soon as they stabilized, they were pushed down under the altar by the Slimes popping up from behind.
The newborn Falcon, surrounded by a group of Slimes, let out suffocated chirps.
Mu Yuan:”…”
Continuing the tradition of teaching the new recruits, he assigned skeleton to skeleton, slime to slime, battle falcon to falcon, properly arranging these troops.
“With these additions, my territory now has…”
45 characters in the Skeleton Series.
Among these, 1 Skeleton General, 2 Skeleton Warriors and 18 Skeleton Soldiers.
15 in the Slime Series.
Among these, 5 Big Slimes.
Two Battle Falcons and one Falcon.
“With 15 Slimes, the daily production of Evo-power is already 6 units. Tomorrow, we can try to promote Duo Lai, making it worthy of its title as the transportation team leader.”
“As for the Skeleton Series… The Skeleton Soldiers are currently the core force, useful in patrols, defenses, and explorations. Even if we don’t promote them all, we will round… round it up to 30. It is also worthwhile to evolve a few more Skeleton Warriors.”
The Skeleton Warriors, who can fight and operate remotely, may not be outstanding among the Rare One-Stars, but they are squarely capable.
A Rare One-Star is already the top combat force of excellent recruits at this stage. Whales are proud to recruit them.
As for evolving Dead Bone?
The next phase of Dead Bone’s evolution requires 125 units of Evo-power, which cannot be gathered in a short time. Forcing it would only slow things down.
The current task of Dead Bone is to practice and level up.
High ranks also require enough ability to bring out these potentials.
Mu Yuan roughly settled the plan, then looked at the remaining twenty Remnant Souls on the side.
Sentry, Archer.
The quantity of them inevitably cannot be compared with the Little Skeletons and the Slimes, and they are weaker in producing Evo-power. But they can still become the core force of the future territory.
It’s time to welcome new soldiers.
My turn, recruit!
’Ding!’
‘Reminder: You have consumed 10 two-star Remnant Souls and toog Soul Sand, and have recruited the troop type ‘Sentry’ xio.’
‘Reminder: You have consumed… the same as above…, and have recruited the troop type ‘Archer’ xio.’
The laws of heaven and earth dropped and molded one remnant soul after another.
It was like ancient warriors who fell on battlefields, returning with their indomitable will, gripping their weapons anew, stepping onto the battlefield, and fighting for the world again.
The first ones to walk off the altar were the sentries, one after another.
They had rather robust bodies, with one hand holding a shield as tall as half a person and the other hand holding a long spear. They were also wearing a full set of blue-gray armor.
However, perhaps because they were two-star troops, the armor looked pretty ordinary. Many of the joints had gaps, and the helmet seemed a bit thin, but…
This gear was more than luxurious.
Thinking about the Little Skeletons in ragged clothes, only armed with a rusty cleaver, and the Slime and Falcon without any equipment… Mu Yuan thinks that the troops of the human race are indeed extravagant.
This gear is probably superior to that of the Skeleton Soldier.
Next stepping down were the archers, one after another. Compared to the sentries, the archers’ equipment configuration was somewhat lower, only wearing simple leather armor, outlining either sturdy or full-bodied figures. They held longbows, with quivers full of feather arrows on their backs.
Twenty soldiers lined up in rows for inspection.
Just like Little Skeletons and Skeleton Soldiers, the freshly recruited types of soldiers lacked any sense of intelligence. Their gazes were full of dullness, not even possessing a clear stupidity.
But compared to Skeleton soldiers and Slime, these soldiers of the human race also had their differences…
They exhibited individual variations!
Perhaps Skulls and Slime had variations too, but Mu Yuan, who was face-blind, could not tell. However, he could see differences in the faces of these sentries that were not covered by their helmets, and there were even slight differences in their height and physique.
The archers had even larger personal differences.
Because…
Looking at a few of them, with shoulder-length short hair and noticeably contoured figures, Mu Yuan fell into contemplation.
Female archers?
There were indeed many female types of troops, for instance, nuns, priestesses, female musketeers, witch priestesses, where soldiers of the Elf series were mostly female, but…
“Err, it seems it wasn’t stated that the regular troops do not have females. Maybe there are females among the Skeletons and Slime, and I just can’t tell.”
Mu Yuan looked at those Little Skeletons who were not wearing any armor. He stared for more than ten seconds and couldn’t identify anything. He shifted his gaze back to the archers instead.
Don’t get it wrong; he was merely curious.
Therefore, he grouped male and female archers separately and performed comparative tests.
He found differences. Male archers had relatively greater strength and farther range. However, female archers had a slightly higher accuracy in shooting.
The gap was quite small, after all, they were the same type of soldiers.
“Now, I have a total of 83 types of Soldiers, and if I train them all at full strength, it would consume eight to nine hundred Soul Sand per day, which is a bit too much.”
“Besides, my Evolution points are limited. I have to prioritize the nurturing of a few outstanding individuals. As for the other… Regular output of Evolution Points/ basic”
So how can I select the excellent individuals to invest resources in for training?
Mu Yuan entered the Tai Xuan forum, entered the verification code, and began to search for information.
Very quickly, he found the information he needed.
“The basic qualities of the same type of Soldier are negligibly different. It is pointless to agonize over whether a type of soldier is slightly stronger or weaker at level one.”
“We select excellent soldiers with one consideration in mind – their growth potential.”
“How can one select soldiers with high growth potential? First, consider their intelligence level. Those who have gained intelligence are definitely worth cultivating intensively. Of course, this is a moot point. Soldiers with intelligence are rare. For newbies, it can’t be insisted upon. You may not get one even after hundreds of draws.”
“So, are there individual differences between ordinary, dull soldiers? The answer is definitely yes.”
“There are many methods of judgement and selection, most of them are not applicable to newbies. I will introduce a method here that everyone can use, it’s simple and fast… leveling up.”
“Bring out ten, twenty, a hundred Soldiers of the same rank. Give them Soul Sand to start practicing simultaneously. Then, the one that breaks through to level two the fastest, is the individual with the most excellent aptitude. And this excellent aptitude isn’t just reflected in the faster leveling.”
“And don’t worry about wasting resources with this selection method. There’s no waste, as troops level up quickly in the beginning stages with little consumption of Soul Sand. Even the lowest level soldiers gaining a few levels would not be at a loss… even the weak Little Skeleton, after reaching level 4, still has decent combat power.”
This method turned out to be quite simple?
Give the Archer and Sentry who leveled up first, the power of evolution.
He murmured.
‘Sentry Series Evolution Points: 0.13’
‘Archer Series Evolution Points: 0..13’
