"Are there any new special abilities?" Gavin was not interested in Grace's death journey. He was now more concerned about the Shadow Messenger. This connection was usually shown in the form of special abilities.
"Is this what the lord is talking about?" Grace showed her career panel to Gavin neatly.
Her attributes are very similar to Daphne who did not obtain a special template. Her inner attributes are far beyond ordinary people, but they do not reach extraordinary levels.
Unless you are extremely talented, there are not many people who can make extraordinary attributes at the extraordinary professional level, especially the three inner attributes. The three physical attributes are easier, especially for barbarians. If you are not able to reach extraordinary strength or physique at the extraordinary level, Extraordinary, then he is not a qualified barbarian.
His profession was also a decent Necromancer, and his abilities tended towards the Necromantic system. Gavin soon found what he wanted.
Control Shadow (Special Ability) - Your shadow has been transformed into a shadow. You can summon it to fight for you. After death, it will collapse into a shadow. It cannot be summoned within 24 hours. You will be affected by The true damage caused by the shadow's Hit Dice points cannot be healed until the shadow condenses again, and the shadow heals itself after it condenses.
Your shadow has a connection with Vizeme Manor, and you can send it back to the manor or recall it.
"That's it." Gavin couldn't help laughing and said, "Esteler, I leave the task of building the Shadow Information Processing Center to you. Do you know what to do?"
"I'm sorry, Lord Lord, I'm too stupid and I have no clue about this matter at all." Astaire said with a guilty look on his face.
She knew the meaning of every word in the Shadow Information Processing Center, but she didn't know what it meant when they were put together.
"I was too hasty." Gavin said enthusiastically, "This matter is very simple. It is to recruit some real shadows with good brains to form an information recording team, and record the identity of every shadow like Ms. Grace. Clearly, after sending them back, record the information they carry, and then summon back the shadows who need to know the information, so that they can bring the information to their masters. This is a complete information transfer.
The key to this matter is the shadow messengers. Let's resurrect ten shadow messengers first, and I will start training with them. "
Not to mention Estelle, who is completely confused about this brand-new thing across the ages, even Daphne, who has a lot of experience, has only a partial understanding of it. She only has a general direction and doesn't have much idea of the specific operation.
Gavin at least has more knowledge of another world than they do. It doesn't matter how in-depth it is, but there is no problem in putting it on the air. The rest is to gradually improve it during use.
The Shadow Messengers do not need those drow elves, because compared to smart heads, the most important thing is loyalty, ensuring that the information conveyed in the process is accurate and there is no interpretation of it.
In this area, those kobolds actually have an advantage. However, if the kobolds are placed next to the human army as messengers, they will be too conspicuous and prone to targeted treatment.
The best way is to use people from each race and select them directly from the units that need to be equipped.
Of course, this is something that will happen in the future. Even if the carrying capacity of the Vizeme Manor allows it, the resources at hand do not allow it. Resurrection of the dead requires money. At least five thousand gold coins for casting materials each time. Everything else is easy to say. It is the core material diamond, which cannot be bought with money.
Due to the conflicts with the cities on the Dragon Coast, they were unable to replenish a single diamond here. The diamonds in the hands of the entire army of conquerors were not enough to resurrect a hundred people. The war was imminent, so of course they could not spend all of this precious resource.
"If the lord has ample funds, you can go to the Ximen Black Market Auction to have a look. They only accept money here, not anything else, not to mention the army of conquerors. Even if the Lord of Hell comes, they will sell it. The only flaw is this We only accept cash purchases and do not accept barter. Of course, you can choose to auction the goods here. After turning them into cash, you can then auction the goods you need." After Grace learned about Gavin's predicament, she came up with a plan.
She entered the role very quickly and completely regarded herself as one of the conquerors' army, completely forgetting about their destruction of Ivanso's original regime.
"I've heard of the Ximen Black Market Auction, but I've never had the chance to see it." Gavin showed a hint of emotion.
Daphne hurriedly advised: "The Lord's identity is sensitive, and it is really not appropriate to go deep into the enemy's territory. Many dangers in this world do not come from the front, but from the sharp blades in the darkness, and this is what Ximen's Dark Night Mask is best at. , they don’t have any moral bottom line, and they won’t be merciful just because the lord comes there to make deals.”
"I know, I'm not planning to go there myself." Gavin was not complacent because he had just defeated the corpse spider elf. He thought he was invincible. Looking at the entire Faerûn continent, he was far from being ranked in terms of personal strength. No., especially those legendary spellcasters. Nine-ring spells are the limit of mortals, but they are not those of legends. There are legendary spells above them.
Before Gavin could give his order, Grace took the initiative and asked for orders: "If your lord is trustworthy, I am willing to go to the west gate for your lord to collect the supplies you need."
"If you can't even give this little trust, the Black Wings Guild won't be able to operate. I'll raise two million for you. You have two purchasing tasks for this trip. One is the diamond for resurrection, and the other is the phase spider. As for the price, you can eat it as long as it does not exceed 50% of the market price." As his strength increased and his wealth increased, the error tolerance began to increase, and Gavin's courage also increased.
In the past, not to mention two million, even two hundred thousand, he wouldn't be worried unless he watched it personally. Now, in the blink of an eye, he lost it to his newly transformed subordinates.
Of course, this is also due to her confidence in her own control methods. Grace is an expert in using necromancy. She is more aware of the power Gavin has in his hands, and she is also aware of the insurance methods he has applied to herself.
Before finding a way to remove this insurance method, we dare not act rashly.
As for the two million payment, they used the newly formed conqueror caravan to send it to Ximen City in a grand manner under a clear banner.
Not only did the dark forces along the way not dare to touch the payment, on the contrary, they also tried their best to provide protection to ensure that the money would not go wrong within their own sphere of influence.
Use yourself to save others.
The leaders of these dark forces subconsciously believed that this was a bait deliberately thrown out by the conqueror's army, in order to lure them into taking action and create opportunities for the conqueror's army to take action again.
They are not fools, and they will never let themselves follow in the footsteps of Arms, let alone let their city become a puppet in their hands.
This is not only true for this amount, but also for anyone who carries the banner of the conqueror army during this period.
Gavin also ignored those fake and shoddy products, because this kind of barbaric growth was an excellent opportunity to expand the influence of the Conqueror Chamber of Commerce.
Of course, this is limited to normal trade exchanges. If someone commits evil under the banner of the Conqueror Army, the Conqueror Army will use actual actions to let them know what a thunder strike is and what it means to kill them all.
Suddenly, the army of conquerors was in fierce flames on the Dragon Coast. In order to send them away as soon as possible, those dark forces could only turn a blind eye to what they did.
"Lord, there is still a batch of trophies that you need to personally determine their use." Daphne pointed at the terrifying object in the center of the city hall.
This thing is one meter thick and six or seven meters long, just like a giant thick barrel. There is nothing unusual about this. But the problem is that this thing is made entirely of bones from the inside to the outside. The bones are facing towards Outside, the head is facing in, and the inside of the thick barrel is densely packed with human heads.
However, the arrangement of these bones is abnormal and mysterious, forming extraordinary lines, revealing a strange beauty.
"Skeleton Cannon?" The first time he saw this thing, Gavin recognized its origin.
It was the device that the corpse spider elf condensed on the corpse spider's body to launch the skeleton bomb in order to intercept the Wu Liu super state.
This thing was not destroyed when the corpse spider collapsed, which aroused Gavin's interest.
Although the skeleton bomb originally launched by this thing did not cause substantial damage to the complete Wuliu Super State, it does not mean that its lethality is small. When it fell on those Kuo Tao fishmen, it was an out-and-out death. Harvester.
The most important thing is that this thing has attributes.
Skeleton Bomb (Special Ability) - This device can be filled with one Skeleton Bomb each round and can be launched upon command.
The effective range of the skeleton bomb is 300 meters. It will automatically explode after hitting a hard object. The person hit directly will suffer 10D12 impact damage. After the explosion, it will cover an area with a radius of ten meters. The covered area will suffer 5D10 splash damage. It then inflicts 5D10 corrosive damage to all creatures in the area.
This thing is a typical triple attack, and its lethality is approaching the eight-ring fire storm.
Previously, when it attacked the Wuliu super-state complete body, it mainly used the first impact. The subsequent splash and corrosion damage had no chance to exert its lethality. Even the most severe frontal impact, Gavin did not have it at that time. Give it a chance to use its full potential. If the Shadow Dragon Shield blocks it, you can use the force-removing technique to knock it away or slow it down.
The most cruel thing is that this thing has a special ability, which means that like the death roar, it does not need to be reloaded and will condense and recharge on its own.
When he saw the last note, Gavin's pupils couldn't help but shrink. This thing needs to occupy the carrying points of Weizemei Manor, and there are quite a lot of them, reaching fifty points. The Shadow Dragon is only one Hundred points.
They are all real bearing points. Mys Noel's amplification effect is only limited to the tower, and it will not be useful after it comes out.
"How many gates are there in total for this kind of thing?" Gavin asked. He remembered that there were quite a lot of corpse spider elves condensed at that time, at least dozens of gates.
"Eighteen of them are still intact, and the rest have varying degrees of damage. I'm trying to repair them."
"Is it possible to activate special abilities only when it is infused with ghost power? Otherwise, it is just a pile of corpse bones?" Everything requires energy support, and these skeletons are no exception. Previously, energy was provided by corpse spider elves. , this time it was probably the shadow power of Vizeme Manor.
They were unearthed with this special ability thanks to the shadow dragging. If they were simply transported back to the manor, discovering this ability would only require other coincidences.
"Yes, this special ability can only be unlocked if it is infused with the power of shadow." Daphne confirmed Gavin's speculation.
"Can you use the corpses on hand to imitate it in large quantities?" For this kind of good thing, Gavin always thinks of mass production.
"This still needs to be tried. There are many things in it that I haven't fully understood yet, and repairing them is very difficult. If I want to imitate it, I'm afraid there is still a long way to go." Daphne replied very conservatively.
"If you can't do it alone, then form a research team and brainstorm ideas. Estelle and Grace both have professional knowledge in this area, so they can make full use of the knowledge they have." Gavin took out several dwarf alchemical muskets. He threw it to Daphne and said, "At that time, we must not only imitate this kind of bone cannon, but also see if we can shrink it and turn it into a shooting weapon similar to this. If those shadows hold similar weapons like this, they will be able to Significantly improve their combat effectiveness."
Gavin did not dare to rashly carry out the research and development of various gunpowder weapons. It was not that he disdained modern shooting weapons, but that he was afraid that after a large amount of modern technology was developed, it would be mastered by those lunatics who were afraid of chaos, and would bring chaos to the whole world. Greater confusion.
If he had the opportunity to develop a shooting weapon that was completely under his control, he would still be happy to see it happen.
The wilderness kobolds in the Dragon Oak Territory are studying the kobold alchemy musket. They are not using the flutter bomb alchemy technology, but the dragon vein power of the kobolds. They have achieved a certain degree of results, at least before they were isolated from the dragon oak mother tree. Yes, but it is not ideal. Just like the original flutter bomb, it is full of instability unique to kobolds, and its power is very troublesome.
Unexpectedly, there would be a breakthrough overnight on the Shadow Power side of Weizemei Manor.
It's just that the usage of the Shadow Power they unearthed at once was too much, which directly caused Gavin to fall into the trouble of happiness, and had to withdraw part of the Shadow Power from the Blood Horn Peak to maintain these eighteen Fifty points per door of the Shadow Skeleton Cannon may not seem very high, but once the quantity is increased, it immediately reaches nearly a thousand points, which directly accounts for one-sixth of the total load capacity of the manor.
"We will definitely try more." Daphne couldn't help but sigh in her heart. The lord's brain circuit is indeed different from ordinary people. Every time he reports on work, he will open a new door for himself and open up a new world for himself. Come up with new ideas, "Do we need to build tanks tailored for them? To facilitate their transport?"
"It's necessary." Gavin nodded and said, "Not only do we need to build a chariot, but we also need to customize a special holding device for them. According to the tree people's standards, they can be used to attack with their hands when necessary."
For humans, it is a cannon. For the extremely large tree people, the shadow skeleton cannon can be turned into a shadow skeleton hand cannon. This will greatly strengthen the problem of the tree people's lack of long-range attacks, and at the same time give these ghosts The Shadow Skeleton Cannon has super mobility and improved safety.
"I immediately asked the woad tree craftsmen to carry out research and production in this area."
"Be quick and get the army in position before leaving Ivanso." Facing the upcoming war in the goblin frontier is Gavin's top priority.
"clear."
"Is there anything else?"
"temporarily unavailable."
"Then let's get started."
"As commanded."
…
The army of conquerors already has a complete organizational structure, especially with the strategic ladies of the Red Falcon Knights brought by Catherine. Raised a level.
Even if Gavin is not in the army, the place is still running smoothly.
The delivery of war compensation with the Dragon Coast Alliance did not suffer any delay due to the extra branch at Vizeme Manor. The last delivery was completed the night before the five-day period.
Just as Gavin and the others had speculated, the Dragon Coast Alliance would not admit their defeat honestly and would make various stumbling blocks in terms of compensation.
In terms of property compensation, they did not expect that the Conqueror Army had the unique ability of shadow drag, so they suffered a setback and gave away a net profit of less than 3 million to the Conqueror Army.
In terms of the 10,000 migrant population, they were successful, at least they thought they were successful. Not to mention young people, even slaves, they were not willing to give one to the conqueror's army. They all came from major cities. The plundered old, weak, sick and disabled, many of whom were only breathing, were transported over.
The army of conquerors accepts them all. Although there is no way to directly transform these old, weak, sick and disabled people into the strength of the army of conquerors, they also have their own benefits, that is, when the treatment team of the army of conquerors helps them heal their physical injuries for free, Their favorability towards the conqueror's army will skyrocket, and they will not dare to say anything, at least they will not try their best to escape.
In terms of healing ability, the medical team of the Conqueror's Army has reached an unprecedented height. Not only is the holy warrior regiment led by Darnell joining, but also because of the large number of rapid healing rings and regeneration rings. When funds are not particularly tight, Under such circumstances, of course, priority should be given to equipping one's own troops with this kind of practical equipment to improve their survivability, rather than selling it on a large scale.
There is an additional benefit to this matter. When it became known that the conquerors' army was treating the injuries of those migrants for free, many people who had no desire to migrate were moved by it, especially those who had lost limbs.
Not to mention ordinary people, even those extraordinary professionals, the expensive casting price of the seven-ring regeneration spell is not so easy to bear.
Now that there is an opportunity to be cured for free, one must sharpen his head and dig in. Most of the people in this group are young and strong, and many are even middle- and low-level warriors. They have greater chances of being exposed to danger and fighting.
The army of conquerors only promised not to actively recruit immigrants from the major cities on the Dragon Coast, but they did not promise not to accept immigrants who came to their doorsteps.
