[First update]
As a mage, Saleen naturally believes in the belief that effort and reward should be equal. Www!QuanBen-XiaoShuo!comIt's just that this time, his efforts seemed to get too little in return. Four sacred trees and seeds, materials of level 18, seem to be the most advanced things in this world, but the limit of this world is level 12, and even the most advanced equipment and materials cannot play a corresponding role.
The value of something is only level 12, but he has to pay for it at the cost of unifying the continent and promoting his faith. If this is considered fair, then the Lord of Glory has unified the continent long ago, and it is still the turn of the goddess Myers to be resurrected
The Seal of Divine Might that Salin obtained originally was probably equipment of level 12 or above, which would not be able to exert its most powerful power on the Mels continent. This is only one of the Pope's three artifacts. When the three artifacts are put together, it is said that they can directly borrow the power of the gods, break through the plane barriers, and send pure divine power to the plane of Mels continent.
I gave this thing to Joey. I don’t know what the result will be if Joey goes after Faka.
When Salin thought of this, he wished he could catch up and see how the two tenth-level experts fought. Recently, I have relied too much on the power of equipment. How can I advance in the long run
Salin gradually regained his mood and was no longer anxious.
On the south bank of the Nameless River, the work of cleaning up the battlefield has begun. The two large battalions were defeated. Too many soldiers were killed by magic fire bombs and fear drums. This time, the losses of the Scotia people were even greater than in the previous battle. .
At least 300,000 soldiers died in this attack. Moreover, this time, the resistance of the Scotia soldiers was obviously much weaker, and Salin's army suffered even smaller losses. The more than 200,000 troops who escaped could no longer gather together, but fled aimlessly in all directions.
The magicians and generals fled westward into the junction of the Rhine Principality and Garulan. Many soldiers could not tell the direction and fled deep into the Qin Empire. These soldiers were quickly captured by the troops sent by Beiju City.
Beiju City knew that Lone Star City was trapped. Although it did not send troops to rescue, it also ambush many troops near the Wuming River. When the battle suddenly broke out, Beijue City got the news. Before these troops could be dispatched, Salin had already launched a second attack, completely defeating the Skochenya people on the south bank of the Nameless River.
The soldiers and horses in Beiju City did not receive precise orders, so they let go of the troops fleeing to the west. They only captured the defeated troops who broke into Qin Yin's territory, and then returned to Beiju City with these tens of thousands of captives.
There are also Scotia people who fled south and were captured by the army on the Qin Yin border. This area is already the edge of the direct conflict between Qin Yin and the Holy See. There are tens of thousands of Qin Yin elites distributed in various fortresses, responsible for the north. alert. These elite Qin Yin troops belong to different northern nobles, but they are related to each other, which is different from the southern nobles.
These armies had long planned to attack the Skochenya people from behind, but Holy Rock City never issued orders for support.
In the end, not even a tenth of the Skochenya people escaped into Garulan. They arrived with more than 900,000 troops, but when they returned, there were only less than 50,000 left. What saddened the general the most was that eleven magicians died. The number of magicians in the Scotia Empire is only about one-tenth that of Qin Yin. Such losses are already considered huge.
In two battles, the enemy's army of more than 900,000 troops was defeated and more than half of the enemy was killed. Such a battle has not happened on the Mels continent for a long time. The several years of fighting between Qin Yin and the Tanggulas Empire were nothing but a tug of war. The Qin people's losses exceeded one-third of the Tanggulas Empire's losses. If the losses of the Galulan Principality itself are included, Qin Yin's casualties were even greater.
Saleen created this strange war solely by relying on a power far superior to that of the enemy. After several battles, the Metatrons had lost more than 200,000 undead.
Of course, Saleen and Rex would not calculate these consumptions. Naturally, their subordinates would do the counting. In fact, the consumption of the undead is nothing. If the auxiliary soldiers of the temple legion die, they will have to increase their pension. This part is calculated within the scope of the loss. The compensation given to the Necromancer is not much.
Back in Lone Star City, Nailisi could not wait to return to Metatlin City. Ani had already received the battle report, and half of the warriors on Elf Wings came back first to end the battle.
Seeing that Aini couldn't hide the joy on his face, Salin smiled and said: "Aini, this time, I am relieved. The number of troops actually sent by the tribunal exceeds 300,000. You still have at least 500,000 troops in your hands." Ten thousand undead, I will leave you with my three temple legions, as well as twelve ancient warriors. You can also ask for less than ten magicians from Metatrin City and build several magic towers in the city."
Ani said: "Salin, I want this to become a city of the undead, what do you think?"
"No, at least 100,000 human troops must be stationed. Aini, they are all undead. Once the mage loses control, the city will be lost."
"That's what I mean, I want all the necromancers in Metatron City to come over."
"You have a way to control it?" Salin asked doubtfully.
"This." Aini stretched out his hand and showed Salin his bloody soul tower.
Saleen frowned and said, "This bloody soul tower is a demonic device. How do you control the mage?"
"You don't understand the source of the power of the necromancer. After I advance to level nine, with this bloody soul tower, the entire Lone Star City will be under my protection, which is much more powerful than the magic tower."
"Then you can't leave Lone Star City?"
"Then don't leave. The speed of practicing here is really fast. It's not because of the advancement of mainland power. Lone Star City is an ancient battlefield, and the underground is full of strong aura of death. My undead plants grow here. Yes, let me advance..."
"But in the future, I need you to follow me to attack the city of the Holy See. If you don't leave, what will I do?" Salin joked.
"Hey, the flesh and blood undead, when I am at level nine, are equivalent to a clone of me, the same kind as a god. When the time comes, you can station here for me, and I will take the plant undead with me, and I can go anywhere."
Saleen's eyes lit up. Aini's advancement was really useful. His plant undead could continuously provide power to various undead creatures. This is equivalent to human food and equipment. The location of Lone Star City is special and there is no good place to grow food nearby. It doesn't matter if the undead are stationed here and the Lone Star City can be trapped for a long time.
"But you are a duke, you can't be the court mage of a subjugated country..." Salin did not say it directly. What he meant was that a duke who controls all the necromancers of a subjugated country will arouse suspicion and worry among other nobles.
"Salin, aren't you going to build an elemental magic tower here? If you ask the court mage to monitor me, those nobles will have nothing to say. Anyway, I like it here, I think..."
Salin patted Aini on the shoulder and said: "Aini, if you want this place to be a fiefdom, you have to wait until everyone has established meritorious deeds. The three of them, Gu Ya, have contributed a lot, so I will give you this place for free. My There will be more trouble.”
Aini did not blush when Salin told the central issue, and said: "This is also simple. When the four dukes were awarded the reward, you were trying to set an example so that the nobles would join you. Now that you are combined with Rex, With the six-winged flying snake seal in your hand, you are a legitimate royal family. Even if you paint cakes for them, they are still attractive. Phoenix will take over sooner or later, even if it is Qin Yin... "
Ani paused and glanced at Rex. Rex smiled and said, "You say it, Ani."
"Even if Qin Yin collapses, in the name of Rex, he can still recover it and become the territory of the Metatrin Kingdom. The Glycos family will support it, right?"
"Yeah, I'll support you," Rex replied.
"Then quickly reward these four dukes to prevent them from being dissatisfied in the future. Choose three pieces of land on the border of Phoenix. I only want this Lone Star City, and everyone will be satisfied. Once the Metatrin Kingdom expands in the future, Gu Ya and the others will have no reason. If you change the fiefdom, it is even less possible to expand the fiefdom into the princess's Qin Yin territory."
Salin exclaimed: "Aini, who said you are just a necromancer? Such an idea is too..."
"Too bad!|" Rex also laughed. Aini's idea is good. The duke's fiefdom can be expanded, but there will not be a duke. If the fiefdom is divided, it must be a complete piece of land. If it is not sealed now and the Metatrin Kingdom expands in the future, Gu Ya and the others may want territory somewhere.
It is better to confine the three duchess to Phoenix now. Anyway, the ambitions of the three duchess are not big now. If the ambition of the dukes expands in the future, it will be really difficult to deal with.
"Salin, in order not to make them suspicious, your son and daughter must quickly establish their identities and build two cities first. Within their territory, a pattern of four great dukes will be formed to protect the young highness. People are suspicious."
Aini completely ignored the other three duchess for the sake of Lone Star City.
From the current point of view, Gu Ya and the three of them have gained a lot of benefits, but that is because others did not know about Salin's determination to attack Qin Yin, and only hinted it to Aini. Now that Rex has approved it in person, this plan sounds a bit ulterior when it comes out of Aini's mouth.
"If you build an empire in the future, the capital of the country will be almost Daliang City. This Metatrin City will be the fiefdom of the Metatrin family and will never be shaken. It is also a good story that the founding Duke defends Metatrin City. "Aini chuckled and spoke in a high-sounding tone.
There was something Aini didn't say, but Salin knew it. That is, if the three duchess have any objections in the future, they can only blame Aini. This idea was entirely Aini's, and it was for his Lone Star City.
In the long run, Aini has planted conflicts with the other three founding dukes, but this is a very good result for the Metatrin family.
Rex narrowed her eyes and glanced at Aini. If this necromancer hadn't been a man, she would have suspected that he had an affair with Salin.
"Aini, that's really wronging you." Salin knew that this matter would definitely spread in the future, and all Metatrin nobles would think that it was Aini who instigated Salin to quickly carve out the dukedom for the sake of a Lone Star City.
"What are you afraid of? I will live a long time. From now on, I will be the oldest duke in the empire. What can their descendants do to me?" Aini directly used the word empire, obviously expressing his concern for Salin and Rex. Very confident about the future. V! ~!
