"I'm willing to accept it." Gavin responded loudly, this time without refusing.
As time goes by, people's ideas are constantly changing, especially when leading the army of conquerors all the way north. The army of conquerors is growing rapidly, and Gavin is also changing rapidly, both in terms of ability and ideas.
The reason why he rejected Ms. Strategy's electorate last time was because Gavin had his own little plans at the time, and was still thinking about the many benefits of the electorate of the goddess of magic. The other party was powerful and had thicker thighs.
But while this thigh is thick enough, it also means that her enemies are strong enough. Once she becomes her chosen one, she will easily become the target of her enemies.
This is also the reason why Gavin holds the supreme artifact of the moon goddess Suellen in his hands, but does not try to contact her and her followers. Once this relationship is exposed, Shar and her shadow followers know that it is definitely him. Trouble begins. The war potential of an immortal Nemesis who has fallen to the level of a demigod is so terrifying. There is no need to say more about the consequences of messing with a powerful god.
In addition, Gavin discovered that his compatibility with the goddess of strategy was not an ordinary match. Many of the plans he had in mind were inseparable from war. He could grow at a rate far faster than in his previous life. Except for In addition to the various advantages of rebirth, the most important thing is that the wars led by him have changed the fate of countless people, and at the same time, they are also changing his own.
This is not the end, but a beginning.
As one's own body grows larger, the development of many things has exceeded the foresight brought by the knowledge of the previous life, and one must rely on normal plans and strategies. And what is more advantageous than becoming a voter of Ms. Strategy?
As for the bundling issue, now that we have come to this point, do we still care?
The two main enemies of the Goddess of Strategy have appeared one after another. One is the God of Conspiracy who was driven away by Tempus, the God of War. Whether there is a relationship with the Lady of Strategy or not, this Lord will be dealt with in the future. Now, With Ms. Strategy and the main god behind her, she no longer needs to hide some of her tricks against him, because after the Prince of Lies descends into the avatar, he can call the Goddess of Strategy to descend into the avatar. If he cannot defeat her, he can still call her. Incarnations of the Lord God serve as reinforcements.
The other is the plunderer Garagos in front of me. He represents plunder and destruction. Even if you don't provoke him, you will have a conflict master in the future when your power grows. Moreover, he is the same as the undead goddess of vengeance. , has been seriously weakened, especially the number of devout believers in Faerûn. There are not many of them anymore, and only a few isolated points are left to survive. Once these isolated points are found to be removed, he will be considered dead, and his strength will be lost. It will also be greatly weakened, and this matter is not that Ms. Strategy is fighting alone. Tempus, the God of War, wants to eradicate him even more strongly. After all, the other party is sharing the glory of the God of War with him.
In addition, after witnessing the process of becoming a god of the Goddess of Strategy, an uncontrollable crazy plan rolled crazily in Gavin's mind.
Previously, he only thought about eating ready-made food and hugging the thick thighs of those powerful gods, but he never thought about using his own strength to make those weaker gods grow up quickly, gain far more than their current strength, and enter the realm of weak, weak, and weak gods. Among the ranks of medium to powerful divine powers.
This kind of god created by oneself, both in terms of appearance and degree of binding with oneself, is far superior to those powerful gods who directly take refuge in it.
This can be seen from the contrast between two completely different attitudes when Ms. Strategy gave herself the identity of a voter.
The last time I was given the status of a voter, it was a completely routine reward, with a sense of condescension and grace, as if you loved it or not, it was not something I owed you, but something you owed me.
This time it was different. He said it directly in front of the entire army of conquerors. It sounded a bit like kidnapping, and he offered many preferential conditions that were not available last time. What he was afraid of was that Gavin would refuse in front of everyone. It was not a shameful thing. , but affects her subsequent development, because a small half of her followers are directly controlled by Gavin, and nearly half are indirectly influenced by him (Dalauma ruled by Zalanda).
Now it's not Gavin who needs her, but she who needs Gavin. After all, there are so many gods, who should Gavin choose?
Therefore, when you are strong enough and control and influence enough people, you don't need to go to those gods yourself. Those gods will come to you. Sandakol, the god of exploration and travel, is proof of this. The key is that you can deal with it. Those gods are useful, and the gods are also very real existences, but what they seek is different from what mortals imagine.
What Gavin has to do in the future is not to actively become the chosen one of a certain god, but to let those gods beg him to be their chosen one.
As Gavin nodded in response, the sacred light that surrounded him and prevented him from entering immediately connected with the divine power of Ms. Strategy that existed in his body but was incomplete. The battle armor automatically dressed, and Gavin is completely wrapped, and its shape is being fine-tuned at a speed visible to the naked eye. A holy emblem belonging to Ms. Strategy, a chess knight piece appears on the chest of the battle armor, and star-shaped brilliance shines in its eyes. This armor It was also blessed with divine enhancement by Ms. Strategy. Although it was not transformed into a divine weapon, its strength was further improved.
God of Strategy Chosen People.
Formation of Troops (Special Ability of the Chosen) - You can select a troop to appear at the location you specify. The number is the intelligence adjustment value/hundred people (below extraordinary). The number is the intelligence adjustment value/ten people (above extraordinary, legendary). below), the quantity is the intelligence adjustment value/person (Legendary and above), the transfer distance is within one kilometer, and it can be used once a day.
Good weather and good weather (special ability) - You can choose a piece of land and synchronize with it. This land will become a magical farmland with good weather and good weather. The crop yield will reach the highest level in Faerûn, and the amount is the intelligence adjustment value/per square kilometer.
Insight into battlefield deductions (voter's special ability) - You can quickly assess the enemy's overall war strength and battlefield layout. You can use the intelligence you have to conduct simulated deductions on the battlefield, and you will discover the enemy's weaknesses or existing problems in your own military formation. The omission of defects may even attract the attention of the God of Strategy.
Immunity (Chosen Special Ability) - Chosen are immune to aging, disease, disintegration, and poison effects, and do not require sleep (but normal rest is still required to prepare spells)
Detect Magic (Special Ability of the Chosen): Able to detect magical auras within the field of vision.
Attribute improvement (voter’s special ability): All attributes +2
The electorate abilities did not exceed Gavin's expectations, but the number was a bit too much. He clearly remembered that Zalanda's electorate abilities only had battlefield insight, battlefield deduction, immunity, detection and attribute improvement. Although she also has the formation and wind, it belongs to the way of artifact warfare.
Could it be that Ms. Strategies takes special care of herself?
Turning around, I thought something was wrong. They were all chosen by ladies, and their palms and backs were all flesh. The goddess of strategy was also a master of calculations. It was impossible for her to do such a stupid thing. There was only one reason for this situation, and that was the gift of the gods. The ability of the chosen people is not static, but is closely related to the strength of their divine power. In the past, Zalanda was only a demigod chosen person, but now he is a chosen person with weak divine power. The templates of the chosen people given by more powerful gods will be more powerful. Powerful, the abilities of the other two voters who believe in Ms. Strategy have been adjusted accordingly after she became a god.
This can be traced from the ability. The formation of troops represents the tactical priesthood of the goddess of strategy. This ability is mainly used on the battlefield.
Good weather represents the mission of planning, which is to make logistical preparations for the coming of war. Food has always been the top priority in large-scale wars.
Insight into the battlefield deduction, this is the merger of the two abilities of insight into the battlefield and battlefield deduction, and represents the priesthood of strategy. This ability is not limited to the battlefield, but can also be used in other situations, such as in the gun board chess that Ms. Strategy is best at. In terms of this ability, Gunboard Chess is also a duel between two armies, and it also tests the strategic ability of two people.
The remaining immunity, detection of magic, and attribute improvement are all auxiliary abilities produced after divine power is poured into the body. This ability is not only available to the Goddess of Strategy, but also to all Gods. It is just a focus. There will be some differences. For example, the Goddess of Magic's chosen attribute improvement will not increase all attributes by 2, but Constitution +10. I believe that the attribute increase of the hobgoblin warlord who was just promoted to the Predator God's Choice should be biased towards strength and constitution.
After paying attention to his own changes, Gavin focused his attention on the battle armor.
This armor followed him, and this was the second time it was strengthened. The last time it was strengthened by the life force of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, and this time it was strengthened by the divine power of Ms. Strategy. Its appearance was far different from the original one. After passing by the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, After the adjustments and additions, this armor was already very cool, and now it is simply so cool that it attracts attention, both in terms of appearance and ability.
The divine energy injected into it by the Goddess of Strategy merges with its original light, shrouding it in a divine aperture. Although it will not make people unable to open their eyes, it is absolutely impossible to look directly, especially at close range. When fighting, you can't even see. How can you aim accurately when fighting in close combat? Isn't it just like being half-blind?
Of course, if Gavin thought about it, he suppressed the divine light in just one thought. If this armor initially gave people the impression of bravery, when the Dragon Oak Mother Tree was strengthened with the power of life, it took into account elegance. Now it is The strategist lady added holiness and majesty, which is more in line with the identity and temperament of a lord. This is directly reflected in the attributes and abilities of the battle armor.
battle armor
This is a +5 magic armor. It has been baptized by the power of life and blessed by Ms. Strategy. It has transformed into an exclusive armor. Only Ms. Strategy's voters can truly exert its power.
Attribute improvement (special ability): Strength +4, Charisma +4.
Size change (special ability): After activating the armor, your body size will increase by one size. All attribute adjustments will be as if you have cast a giant enlargement spell. This is a natural change, not affected by dispel magic, and has no duration. You can rely on will Suppresses the effect of this ability. This ability cannot be superimposed with the Giant Transformation spell. This armor no longer has size restrictions and can change with your body shape. No matter how large the size is, it is limited to humanoid body shape. Non-humanoid body shape will be It will be integrated into your body. This ability can only take effect when equipped with the equipment of the Lady of Strategy.
Arcane Armor (Special Ability): Does not affect the use of arcane spells.
Yaling Armor (Special Ability): Treated as Yaling Armor, use Fairy Steps without any hindrance
Damage Reduction (Special Ability): Damage reduction 25/∞.
Life aura (special ability): As long as you are within ten meters of the aura, your health will increase by one point each round.
Battle Armor has gained two new abilities, and one ability has been adjusted.
Needless to say, attribute improvements are external attribute improvements. These two attribute improvements are quite useless to Gavin because they conflict with his existing equipment. The Dragon Fang Gloves themselves have a +4 strength increase. The Crown Shield has a +4 charm boost. These external attributes conflict with each other and will not add up to each other, resulting in +8.
In this way, the Dragon Fang Gloves can be honorably discharged and given to others for use. The same is true for the Crown Shield. Now I have fewer and fewer opportunities to use the Crown Shield. In comparison, the Shadow Dragon Shield's reduction ability It is more powerful and can be adjusted in size according to one's own thoughts. The only inconvenience is that it needs to be summoned under special circumstances.
Then again, he will not easily start a war with others without sufficient preparation, especially those powerful beings. Turning around and running away, and then coming back to find a place when he is fully prepared, is the choice of a smart person. , Ms. Strategy has said that temporary retreat and temporary failure are not failures. The most important thing is to be able to protect yourself.
Dimensional change is definitely an ability tailor-made for Gavin by Ms. Strategy. Don’t forget, Gavin has the ability to metamorphose, which can imitate the bodies of some other creatures. Not to mention the half-dragon transformation, this It belongs to a humanoid body. In the past, combat armor could not be used and could only be integrated into the body. Now it can be dressed for combat. The combat armor will adjust its shape according to needs. As for the flying dragon transformation, there is no way. The combat armor There is no ability to transform into dragon armor.
As for the change in body size, it is actually a constant giant change, which is not easily removed by magic. If it can be superimposed with the giant change spell, this ability is absolutely ridiculously powerful. It is a pity that it cannot be done to this extent. It can only be said to be a The small super ability gives Gavin one more tactical option, but with a giant body and wearing battle armor, he is still quite intimidating when standing at the forefront of the battle.
Another change is the improvement of damage reduction ability. What it improves is not the value of damage reduction, but the type of attack that can be blocked. When facing enemies below extraordinary, 25/+1 still feels very powerful. As the enemy's strength increases, Enhancement, this ability is a bit unsatisfactory. Who is extraordinary or above and does not have a magic weapon with +1 or more in his hand? There is no way to defend against magic attacks. You can only defend against stray arrows on the battlefield, plus scare people.
Now it has directly changed to 25/∞, which means that no matter what kind of attack falls on the battle armor, 25 points of damage will be subtracted first. This is another reason why the Crown Shield was retired from Gavin's hands.
While Gavin was taking stock of the gains, Ms. Strategy continued to lay out her own battlefield and shouted to the predator Garagos: "Since you want the divine war, I will give you the divine war today to let you know clearly. I know why you are weak. This is the future development trend of war. Your mindless plunder and destruction are destined to be abandoned by the times. They will be replaced by strategies and plans, because those who do not pay attention to strategies and plans will become A stepping stone for success.”
Behind her, the phantom of the Gun Chess Fortress fell from the sky. With the Bianhuang River and the Bridge of Humans and Gods as the center line, they were perfectly integrated. The entire battlefield seemed to have the unique grid pattern of a chessboard. Especially the defensive warriors at the front line of Xiqiaokou felt the most deeply, because the appearance of these dotted lines became the best aiming and measuring lines. With previous attacks, they could clearly estimate the enemy's distance from them. Distance, and when to attack, is in their best interest.
Ms. Strategy said to Gavin, whose light was fading, "You will be the king in my game of chess."
"It's my honor." Gavin bowed and handed over the power of this war to the goddess of strategy. He could sense that this war would become a little different in the future. Maybe it really would. It will incorporate some of the rules of war chess, and Ms. Strategy is the master of spear chess in all of Faerûn, the most victorious general among the victorious generals.
"You are my queen." A ray of light fell on a bright red figure at the entrance of the West Bridge. Judging from the figure alone, this figure is 70% similar to the shadow in the sky. Catherine, who is not Ms. Strategy's first choice, can still Anyone.
"I will obey the Holy Order." Catherine bowed in greeting. At this moment, her body size had doubled, and she was sitting on a huge red war horse. The members of the Red Falcon Knights were struck by divine rays of light out of thin air. Teleported behind her.
This king and queen refers not only to themselves, but also to part of the conqueror's army.
This situation didn't just happen to Catherine. After Gavin was appointed king by Ms. Strategy, the Hobgoblin Giant Corps was also teleported to him.
"You are my chariots." The light of the goddess of strategy fell on the vanguard of the pioneers and the amputees of the conqueror's army.
"You are my two knights." This time it is the hobgoblin wolf cavalry led by Bloodsworn Warlord Thomas and the Nott Guards heavy cavalry led by Nora.
"You are my two bishops." This time it was the Goliath Corps and the Tree Corps led by Carissa.
"You are my imperial guards." Rays of light fell on the tower chariots and the armed immigrants surrounding him respectively. The three hundred tower chariots were divided into six, each with fifty towers. Type tank as a huge combat unit.
After Ms. Strategy made such a division, both those inside and outside the chess game couldn't help but be stunned. The military structure of the conqueror's army was extremely similar to the distribution of chess. I didn't know that this was a coincidence. ? Or this kind of game itself evolved through strategic layout. When they kept making adjustments for the convenience of marching, they naturally fit this kind of chess game.
