Gavin's promotion grace doesn't need to be so troublesome. He just ignores the others and upgrades them by one professional level or one hit die at once, as long as they are below extraordinary.
Elite Grace also has an advantage that Promotional Grace does not have, that is, once a large-scale war breaks out, as long as you achieve enough brilliant results and accumulate enough experience points on Elite Grace, you can promote multiple people at once. This time is the best proof. The professional level of the Trap Corps, which consists of more than three hundred kobolds, has increased by one and a half levels on average.
One is explosive and the other is slow and steady.
The third option, Legendary Invocation, is very similar to a special specialty, Leadership. It is an out-and-out dominant ability that will attract more people to your territory, including those extraordinary beings.
For Gavin, who has been worrying about the number of citizens, the auxiliary nature of this ability can be imagined.
If Gavin didn't use his special ability to accumulate charm into the legend, he wouldn't even need to consider it. It must be the legendary inspiration. This ability that seems to have no real effect is often the most powerful.
The accumulation of special abilities with a duration limit greatly reduces the value of this ability. This is equivalent to giving it a time limit. The ten-point attribute gap makes even Gavin despair. Even if it is accumulated, It is also the year of the monkey and the month of the horse. At that time, I may no longer need this ability.
On the contrary, Uplifting Grace does not have this limitation. It only takes a few seconds to use it, but the subsequent effects are permanent.
The most correct way to use this skill is not to raise an ordinary person from scratch to extraordinary, but to improve those who are only one or two steps away. This saves the most experience points and is relatively helpful.
This needs to be chosen carefully, just like its name, it is a kind of grace, and it must be fully ritualized.
This choice has always been troublesome to say but easy to do.
To an outsider like Shanobah, it seemed like she was in a daze for a while.
She watched Gavin truly transform into a flying dragon like herself. As his special abilities were activated, all aspects of his body were further adjusted, and the aura he revealed was far more powerful than hers.
Not only did Shanobah not feel frustrated and defeated, but she took it for granted, because this was the true dragon emperor in her mind. She roared at Gavin excitedly, jumped up and down to the balcony, jumped down, and He soared into the air in a second.
Gavin understood what she was doing, followed closely behind her, and jumped down. He instinctively flapped his wings, but even so, he couldn't help but fall down.
This situation is like a person who doesn't know how to swim, flopping wildly in the water, but unable to stop sinking.
Shanobah immediately returned to Gavin, shook her head at him, slapped the dragon's wings as hard as a demonstration, and then lowered her body.
Gavin got it right and no longer fanned frequently. Instead, he mustered up all his strength and fanned twice in succession. His body immediately stabilized. When he calmed down, many things became natural.
The super state change is not as simple as giving him the appearance of a flying dragon. It even gives him the sense of a flying dragon. He can clearly feel the flow of air and wind. His new body has extremely strong adaptability in this aspect, especially when activating the extraordinary ability. After acquiring the body, he can even manipulate the surrounding wind to further increase his speed - this is the secret of the extraordinary body that doubles his speed.
From clumsily learning to fly, to flying side by side with Sanoba, to finally far surpassing her, it took less than five minutes.
But his duration is also up.
After all, this is not a bloodline ability and cannot be sustained for a long time, but is limited by the duration of the ability.
If it changes into a living creature, the duration of the metamorphosis is 1 minute/power casting level. If it changes into a stationary object, the duration changes from minutes to hours. Gavin can now transform into a flying dragon for eight minutes.
After transforming back into a human body, Gavin did not move freely. A pair of red copper dragon wings stretched out from behind him. This was not a super state change, but this ability caused Gavin's energy dragon wings to mutate. It has two states, it can be the original energy dragon wing, or it can now exist in matter. Both have their own advantages and disadvantages.
The energy dragon wings are intangible and qualityless. They are a combination of energy. They look extremely gorgeous. The disadvantage is that the flying speed is constant and has nothing to do with Gavin's own strength and constitution, let alone the power of external wind.
The advantage of solid dragon wings is that they can not only fly, but can also be used as special weapons or shields. They can make full use of the power of the wind and have higher speeds. The disadvantage is that they are too wide and get in the way and become resistance.
Gavin just wanted to try out his newly acquired abilities, but he hit Shanobah's excitement point, and immediately transformed back into the black dragon girl state, rushed towards Gavin, and started a second round of fierce fighting in the air. , performed a unique aerial dance, unlocking several new postures that can only be unlocked with dragon wings.
Whether it was Gavin leading the two of them to a high altitude with the help of dragon wings, or the collision of two pairs of dragon wings at the same time, it was far beyond the power of pure human power. But the more this happened, the more excited the black dragon girl became. The more proactive you are, you may even take the initiative to unlock some unique postures.
For the next period of time, Gavin spent most of his time in the Dwarf Statue City.
During the day, he went out with Shanoba, leading the Erd team and the kobold ferocious weasel cavalry, to search the entire Troll Mountains, dig out all the kobolds here from their nests, and bring them under their rule. A group of monsters were launched into an airborne strike.
With the six-armed snake demon Night Shadow as his backing, Gavin's style of doing things became even more unrestrained.
But the situation that really forced Gavin and the others to summon the six-armed snake demon never happened.
They were not alone. They fell directly into the place where the enemy was most densely populated - that was what the most reckless fools would do.
Air-ground coordination is the most correct tactic.
On the ground, the Goliath Chapter is responsible for attacking the enemy, while the Kobold Dire Weasel Cavalry is responsible for setting up traps for reinforcements or intercepting the breakouts.
When the enemy's main force is fully mobilized by the Goliath battle group, throwing a few fireballs from the air at the densest area is the best solution.
At this point, 80% of the monster tribes have basically collapsed.
If it hasn't collapsed yet, it usually means that these monster tribes are supported by a group of elites led by a tenacious leader.
At this time, Gavin made his debut to perform the decapitation operation. Until now, he had not seen a single monster leader who could withstand two roars of death.
If he was really that powerful, he wouldn't be just the leader of a monster tribe.
The Black Dragon Girl set up a flag on the old site of the Troll Kingdom and recruited the kobold subordinates, which went exceptionally smoothly.
Most of the kobolds were not recruited by them, but after they showed their intention in this regard, a large number of kobolds came to the door themselves.
As ferocious and loud as the reputation of the Troll Kingdom in the Troll Mountains was, Gavin and his friends' reputation would be several times greater than theirs.
After all, only a force several times their strength would be able to annihilate their entire army and take their original city as their own.
This kind of reputation takes time to ferment, and it spreads farther and farther as those troll kingdoms retreat and flee.
Gavin is now considered an expert in raising kobolds and has rich experience.
The demand relationship between the dragon and the kobold is not one-way, but two-way.
To be more precise, the kobolds need the dragon more urgently than the dragon does the kobolds.
After all, most dragons are aloof creatures. It seems that only loneliness can show their taste and strength. They don't like to be surrounded by a group of noisy little things.
Even if some dragons recruit a group of kobolds to serve, the unequal life cycle and time concept will make the dragon forget them. When they come back next time, the kobolds here have either switched to other dragons. The embrace has either died, and is waiting for the return of the original dragon master, and there is no chance that it will survive.
There is no need to say more about the reasons why the kobolds need dragons.
The dragon allows the kobolds to have a purer dragon bloodline and a more powerful ladder. These are all Gavin's personal subjective conjectures - based on human thinking.
The factors here are probably more complicated. I am thinking about philosophy when it involves kobolds. Anyway, it is so mysterious that it is difficult for non-kobolds to understand it.
After all, kobolds all over the world have the same virtues. The so-called pronunciation is different from ten miles away, and the customs are different from hundreds of miles away. It is simply not applicable to them. This is a very fantastic thing in itself.
Gavin has no interest in studying this in depth, as long as it is beneficial to him.
In just ten days, the number of kobolds in the dwarf statue city exceeded 3,000 (including a thousand Cang Fang Legion), among which there were more than 300 big kobolds who were as tall as hobgoblins.
The kobolds produced in the Troll Mountains more or less had some in their hands, and they all treated them as a meeting gift and presented them to Shanobah. They turned around and found them in Gavin's hands.
The little things add up to a lot, and the total amount is equivalent to the amount harvested from the Troll Kingdom. Only the one in Gavin's hand is still an orphan, and it is probably the only one in the Troll Mountains.
Gavin was not surprised by this.
These trolls in the Troll Kingdom are not engaged in production. They clearly guard the largest mineral vein in the entire Troll Mountains, but they have not fully developed and utilized it.
Gavin originally thought that they were the worst, raising a group of kobolds, miners, and the like, even goblins. Although those little fools were stupid, bad, and abusive, they would work honestly if pushed. .
The result was nothing.
It should be said that there were once, but they were all eaten up by those greedy trolls, and they were too lazy to go out and collect them.
Because there is a big target of the migrating army waiting for them to rob, they have no intention of letting the monster servants who have come over to mine mines.
Most of the troll gems in the hands of the troll kingdom were stolen from other monster tribes, of which kobolds accounted for the majority.
But the kobolds are different. Mining is their innate instinct and is directly integrated into their lives.
Even if the ore cannot be sold, they will dig it, because when they find a suitable dragon owner, they can donate it in exchange for the dragon owner's favor and reward.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Accompanied by the sound of heavy and slow war drums.
After hearing the news, countless kobolds emerged from the depths of the mines in the dwarf statue city. This was the summons of the great kobold king and queen.
The gathering place for these kobolds is the double-door square of the Dwarf Statue City.
The Dwarf Statue City has two entrances and exits, one in the south and one in the north, 800 meters apart. The reason why there is a double-door layout is because they are on the two feet of the statue.
Between the two feet is a huge square, and the tops of both feet are huge speech platforms.
Don't think that feet are small when you hear them.
This dwarf statue was carved from a mountain, reaching a terrifying height of 1,200 meters. If you stood close and raised your head, you wouldn't be able to see the whole thing. The bare feet would be over 100 meters long.
Although the kobolds below come from dozens of completely different tribes, and the longest they have gathered here is only ten days, they are organized in an orderly manner and have been divided into queues based on expertise and ability.
This is due to the credit of the Cangya Legion led by Cangya and the lawful nature of the kobolds' collective life.
The kobolds of the Cangya Legion did not form an organized guard on the periphery, but were scattered and integrated into the kobold team.
The kobolds are now mainly divided into two waves.
Standing at the front is the specialty of this place - the giant kobold.
These giant kobolds are as strong as hobgoblins, and are usually over two meters tall. At a glance, they look more like lizardmen than kobolds, but their faces are shorter, and the scales on their bodies are also biased towards Pewter, not green.
The nearly 3,000 kobolds at the back are almost the same as ordinary kobolds. Their scales are generally blue-grey, and their heights range from 60 to 70 centimeters to 1.23 meters.
What causes this difference, in addition to genes, is mainly the adequacy of daily nutrients.
Generally speaking, most of the kobolds in the Troll Mountains are doing well, with an average height of more than one meter. After all, this is a world dominated by monsters, and there is also a giant plain with relatively rich products.
Kobolds are one of the few natural miners among the monsters. In addition to being self-sufficient, they also use minerals to conduct some relatively primitive transactions with the monster tribes. They are also guarded by complex caves and traps, so their lives are naturally relatively comfortable.
"Do you know what we're all going to do together?"
"I don't know. I'm new here too. This kind of thing should be asked to those who were the first to follow the King of Kobolds. Do you know what the great King and Queen want to do?"
"How can we guess the Lord's intention? You just need to wait and see what happens. It will definitely be good for you and not harmful. You newcomers have not yet appreciated the omnipotent means of the Lord."
"Looking at this posture, it looks like a dragon hunting conference is being held!"
"Since you know the name of the Dragon-Seeking Conference, you must be a veteran. Now it has been renamed the Dragon-Seeking Conference. So, you have participated in the early Dragon-Seeking Conference?"
"Of course, I am one of the first kobolds to follow the lord, and I have witnessed with my own eyes the rise of us kobolds led by him."
"Excuse me, can you please explain what the Rising Dragon Conference is? It sounds like it has something to do with dragons?"
"You just came here, haven't you heard of the Rising Dragon Conference?"
"Yes, just arrived yesterday."
"That's no wonder. Have you heard of dragon-seeking meditation? What about dragon-seeking ceremony? What about dragon transformation?"
"Dragon transformation? Are you referring to the commanders with dragon wings? Their abilities are not innate? But they were opened after following the King of Kobolds?"
"It's not stupid. Yes, not only the dragon transformation, but also the dragon vein ability are all found by the lord led us... Hush, the lord is here."
As the flying dragons transformed by Gavin and Shanoba both appeared, the kobolds who were talking about it fell silent, and the next second, they became excited roars.
In order to show their strength, they passed directly at high speed not far from the head of the kobold.
Most kobolds' perception is not high, but they are extremely sensitive to magic, especially those related to dragons. They can feel the strong power emanating from them.
What made them slightly confused was that the dragon aura exuding from Gavin, the seemingly more powerful kobold king, was not as pure and rich as the dragon aura exuded from Queen Shanobah.
But soon, they no longer cared about this, because Gavin's next speech was related to their vital interests.
Gavin, who landed on the platform at the feet of the dwarves, did not talk nonsense to these kobolds and said straight to the point: "I am a fair person. I will reward my merits, punish my mistakes, and return my courtesy. Since you will The most precious treasure is dedicated to you, so I must give you a generous gift in return.
I believe that some people recognize the things in my hand, and some do not. I will pretend that you don’t recognize them and explain them in a unified manner.
This potion is called the Red Copper Dragon Blood Potion. It can help you tap the potential in your bloodline and start the Dragon Ascension Ceremony. As for which stage you can advance to, it depends on you.
After you get the reward, don't drink it casually. The Lord of Sanoba will lead you all to rise to the dragon collectively. I'll read out the names, Avis, Keen, Andis..."
Gavin read out a series of fifty names, four-fifths of them were giant kobolds, and there were only a pitiful eleven ordinary kobolds.
This is not determined by Gavin, but by the strength they possess and their previous position in their tribe.
Just like those noble trolls, these big kobolds have not simply doubled in size, but their inner attributes have also been improved to varying degrees.
Compared to their peers, it would be difficult for them not to occupy a high position if they had strength and intelligence.
