Chapter 379: Chapter 369, Skeleton Mantismen_2
Inside the hall, there was silence once again.
Demitrija asked sensibly: “Sir, do I need to go to the Bloody Mountain Range?”
There was still a tier 3 orange hero in the Bloody Mountain Range,
Meatfist-Kaius.
He posed certain danger.
But Fang Hao did not intend to involve Demitrija or Nelson in this battle.
-Let’s see how it goes. If anything unusual happens during the battle, we can arrange accordingly.” Fang Hao shook his head.
“Alright, my Lord,” Demitrija nodded and sat back down.
The Undead army stationed in the Bloody Fortress was 3 million strong.
The number of Trolls was not that great to begin with, and it would decrease
drastically after their civil war.
One could say that the Undead army had overwhelming numbers, even in the
face of the Tier 3 Meatfist-Kaius.
There was no threat beneath such massive troops.
At most, they would lose a few men.
Demitrija and Anjia were needed to protect the safety of Fang Hao.
To prevent any issues that might arise from the Faceless Ones.
It was uncertain whether their series of actions, in combination with Rebecca,
had gone unnoticed by the enemy.
As for Nelson, despite also being an orange tier hero…
His characteristic lay in being a corpse witch, having the ability to craft skeleton heroes, rather than fighting and leading armies.
In the past, when there were few heroes to choose from, but now they had plenty of them.
Fang Hao didn’t intend to send Nelson, who had just left the Viscera Museum,
back to the battlefield.
After all, they would need him to continue creating skeleton heroes after the
major battle was over.
Having delegated his tasks, Fang Hao said, “Alright, everyone proceed according to plan. If there are any issues, bring them up in a timely manner.
“Yes, my Lord.”
Everyone saluted and left the hall.
After the meeting had ended…
Fang Hao again used God’s Presence to inform Black Thorn, stationed at the
Bloody Fortress, and Fireblade, stationed at the Frostwind Mountains, about the situation in the Bloody Mountain Range.
The Bloody Fortress was manned by 3 million undead soldiers.
The Frostwind Fortress also had a force of 1.2 million.
Upon receiving Fang Hao’s message, they entered a state of readiness for
battle.
Once the fighting started…
They would attack the Bloody Mountain Range from both fortresses.
After dinner…
Fang Hao left the Lord’s Manor.
The previously calm territory had become extremely busy.
One cart after another was transporting equipment from the warehouse.
Fang Hao watched the busy skeletons.
Not leaving himself idle, he went directly to the skeleton barracks to prepare
for the upcoming battle.
With a total of 4.2 million soldiers stationed at the two fortresses, there was no urgent need to increase the number of undead soldiers.
His first stop was the Skeleton Conversion Pool.
Intending to see if there were any types of soldiers he needed.
As he approached, he saw a mantis man that had been transformed yesterday.
Skeleton Mantis Man (Tier 8).
The Skeleton Mantis Man, although converted into a skeleton, still retained a structure close to an arthropod in appearance.
Presenting a rusty reddish color.
Standing three meters tall, it was as slim as a bamboo pole.
The mantis-like sharp head, its jaw teeth moving non-stop, it had long arms with hands and four fingers, not mantis blades.
Fang Hao looked closely at the mantis man standing in front of him, and in response, the mantis man gave a slight salute.
This gesture made Fang Hao slightly puzzled.
Intelligence?
“Do you have intelligence?” Fang Hao asked tentatively.
The jaw of the mantis man continued to writhe, but it made no reply.
Fang Hao issued several commands in succession, but the Skeleton Mantis Man didn’t show any sign of exceptional intelligence, just rigidly carrying out the given orders.
It seemed that they had just one additional action compared to ordinary
skeletons—saluting.
Fang Hao continued to view the mantis man’s attributes.
Hoping it wouldn’t disappoint him.
Skeleton Mantis Man (Tier 8)
Faction: Undead
Race Features: Undead, Hollow Skeleton, Weak to Light magic.
[Skills: Passive Vision, Standstill Leap, Lone Ranger, Weapon Master.]
[innate Skills: Intermediate Mastery of Strength, Intermediate Mastery of
Combat, Intermediate Mastery of Agility.]
[Passive Vision (Passive)]: This unit can detect attacks within a certain range beyond its line of sight.
[Standstill Leap (Passive)]: This unit can jump up to 10 meters in distance and
5 meters in height without a running start (Soft landing, reduces fall damage to a minimum).
[Lone Ranger (Passive)]: If there are no friendly units within 3 meters of this unit, all attributes +80%, and additional +10% attack power.
[Weapon Master (Passive)]: Skilled in the use of any melee weapon, (equipping melee weapons, triggers the skill which makes multiple attacks).
(Description: ‘Stricklin Mantis Men’ are innate weapon masters. They are proficient in and adept at using various melee weapons, some talented mantis men can even naturally release psychic energy.)
The entire body with passive skills but seems to be quite powerful.
However…
This [Lone Ranger], makes Fang Hao’s eyebrows furrow in an instant.
What the hell!
Only if there are no friendly units within 3 meters will the attributes be increased by 80%.
That is, only when this skill is triggered, will the mantis people truly reach the standard of Tier 8.
However, my tactics have always been to use many against few.
When friendly forces are all over the mountains and plains, who will make room for you to display your abilities?
At that time, the enemy’s base would already be emptied and battles are being cleaned up.
It’s a bit puzzling why such an attribute would appear.
Complaints aside.
But as it stands, the Mantis Man is the highest-ranked melee soldier that can currently be recruited in the territory.
It was also acquired by chance from a fossil, so we can’t be too fussy about it.
Apart from the Skeleton Mantis Man, another melee soldier has been unlocked in the transformation field.
The [Skeleton Ghoul] was transformed from a Ghoul brought back from the Orphanage.
It was transformed a while ago, but after getting a hero, Fang Hao rarely came near it.
It was forgotten for a while.
Now open the transformation pool recruitment list, and then remember.
>.
[Faction: Undead]
[Racial Traits: Undead, Hollow Skeleton, Light Weakness.]
[Skills: Abyss Origin, Bite, Claw Strike.]
[Innate Skills: Low-Level Mastery of Strength, Low-Level Combat Mastery,
Low-Level Crawling Mastery.]
[Abyss Origin (Passive)]: Origin is associated with the Abyss. Fighting near Abyss cracks, this unit’s all attributes +50%.
[Bite (Active)]: Like the teeth of a beast, pounce and bite the target unit.
[Claw Strike (Active)]: Launch an attack on the enemy with sharp claws, causing slash damage.
(Description: Driven by their endless hunger for the flesh of humanoid creatures, they lurk in human villages in the dark of night.)
After undergoing transformation in the Skeleton Conversion Pool, it went from Tier 5 to Tier 3.
But its attributes are average, Bite and Claw Strike, it doesn’t seem much different from the transformed beasts.
With this comparison, it suddenly feels like the Skeleton Mantis Man is more practical.
After reviewing the two newly unlocked types of soldiers, Fang Hao continued to check the soldiers types that had already been unlocked in the Transformation Pool.
[Skeleton Beast (Tier i)][Skeleton Soldier (Tier l)][Skeleton Wolf (Tier 2)][Skeleton Ostrich Beast (Tier 2)][Skeleton Warrior (Tier 3)][Skeleton Giant Bat (Tier 3)][Skeleton Ghoul (Tier 3)][Skeleton Troll (Tier 5)][Skeleton Troll Cyclops (Tier 7)][Skeleton Mantis Man (Tier 8)][Bone Dragon (Tier 10)].
In this period, not many new types of soldiers have been unlocked.
What has been brought back are all duplicates.
This time we are going to attack the Bloody Mountain Range, the number of troops is already sufficient.
But to make the battles easier, some troops with special skills still need to be recruited.
First, look at the recruitment conditions for the [Skeleton Mantis Man], after all, it is a Tier 8 soldier.
[Skeleton Mantis Man: Wriggling Spine 8, Death Trace 5, Star Silver 3, Mist-Cloaked Crystal 5-]
The exclusive material for recruitment is the Mist-Cloaked Crystal.
Looking at this, the Mantis Man should belong to the Fairy Race.
Checking the warehouse.
The rest are plenty, only there are just 12 pieces of Mist-Cloaked Crystals.
That means, this can be recruited 2 times.
Recruit quantity 2, select recruit.
[Using Hundredfold Amplification, Recruited 202 Skeleton Mantis Men.]
200 rays of light appeared, and the Skeleton Mantis Men appeared on the open space scattered around.
“Go outside and stand by for now.” Fang Hao immediately ordered.
The Skeleton Mantis Men saluted again, and with a push of their feet.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
Several figures, leaped high up and jumped towards the city gate direction.
In the blink of an eye, none of the Mantis Men could be seen nearby.
Fuck, they’re fierce
