Chapter 486: 269 Particularly strong, agile and robust Skeleton Warrior_2
In a short while, the original wall of 150 by 150 was upgraded to a wall of 250 by 250.
At the same time, the thickness of the wall increased from about two meters to two meters and thirty centimeters!
The altar within the city wall grew somewhat larger and more mysterious.
Meanwhile, the attributes of these two buildings appeared before Dean McKenzie.
…
Building: Wall
Level: Level 1
Fixed Defense: 1 Trillion
Energy Defense: 100 Trillion
Next upgrade requires materials: 15622/20000 (Stone) 8762/10000 (Wood)
…
Building: Guardian Altar
Level: Level 1
Energy Defense: 1000 Trillion
Next upgrade requires materials: 8762/20000 (Wood), 15622/10000 (Stone)
…
Dean McKenzie glanced at the attributes of these two buildings, immediately lost interest, but Old Six became enthusiastic, took out a monocle from somewhere and put it on, and fetched a magnifying glass to examine the wall and the Guardian Altar tirelessly.
Dean McKenzie’s gaze fell on the remaining items after the release of the light points.
Not all of the 100,000 light points were materials. Aside from stone and lumber, there was also the Super Huge Red Bone Marrow and the Super Huge Blue Bone Marrow.
These two were special recovery potions intended for Bone Skeletons.
The red one can restore health, and the blue one can restore Mana.
Dean McKenzie had more than 10,000 bottles of each type, but they were not much use.
No choice, these things were effective only for Skeletons with attributes less than 50 trillion, and all of Dean McKenzie’s Skeletons had exceeded this attribute.
So these potions can now only serve as decorative items!
Also, there were not many God’s Gold Coins, only about 100,000. Besides, there were some blueprints.
Like Arrow tower blueprint, Watchtower blueprint, Defensive crossbow blueprint, etc.
Having looked at these items, Dean McKenzie eventually decided to give them up.
Mainly because their effects were too weak, Dean McKenzie thought it was unnecessary to waste resources on these buildings. If really needed, upgrading the Wall and the Guardian Altar would suffice.
Frankly speaking, Dean McKenzie didn’t think highly of these two either. If it weren’t for the fact that not upgrading anything would make him feel like he’s at a loss, Dean wouldn’t have bothered with these two things.
Luckily, as the level of buildings rose, their effects also gradually increased.
Level 1 Wall provides 1 trillion fixed defense, 100 trillion energy defense.
Level 2 Wall gives 2 trillion fixed defense, 200 trillion energy defense.
Level 3 Wall offers 4 trillion fixed defense, 400 trillion energy defense.
Level 1 Guardian Altar provides 1000 trillion energy defense,
Level 2 Guardian Altar provides 2000 trillion energy defense, Level 3 delivers 4000 trillion!
Obviously, every time these buildings are upgraded, the effect improves by a multiple compared to the previous one.
This somewhat lifted Dean McKenzie’s spirit.
“If it doubles each time, it might be somewhat useful later on!”
However, not only do the effects of these buildings double, but also the intensity of monster attacks doubles as well.
In the first round, there were only 500,000 level 201 corpses, in the second round the number increased to 1,000,000, and in the third round, it increased to 2,000,000.
Just when Dean McKenzie thought that the fourth round would bring 4 million ordinary corpses, the monsters that came in the fourth round were somewhat different from before.
…
Name: Sturdy Corpse
Level: 201
Attributes:
Strength: 1.2 + 1.2 Trillion, Agility: 0.2 Trillion, Spirit: 0.0 Trillion, Physique: 2 Trillion
Talent: Sturdy Corpse’s Body (Increases base attributes by 100%, negates 90% physical damage, can absorb fresh blood from living organisms to recover own damage)
Skill: Corpse Claw (demigod)
Corpsal Poison (Demigod) (Attack comes with corpsal poison, can corrupt targets with attributes not exceeding 10 times its own, can reduce target’s defense by 5 Trillion)
…
Name: Agile Corpse
Level: 201
Attributes:
Strength: 0.6 Trillion, Agility: 1.6 + 1.6 Trillion, Spirit: 0.0 Trillion, Physique: 1 Trillion
Talent: Agile Corpse Body (Boosts base agility attribute by a hundred percent, increases evasion by fifty percent, and can absorb fresh blood from beings to heal self-induced damage.)
Skill: Claw of the Corpse (Half-god)
Corpse Poison (Half-god) (Attacks come with corpse poison, which can corrupt creatures whose attributes do not exceed ten times one’s own, reducing the target’s defense by five trillion.)
…
Name: Robust Corpse
Level: 201
Attributes:
Strength: 1.2 Trillion, Agility: 0.2 Trillion, Spirit: 0.0 Trillion, Physique: 2+2 Trillion
Talent: Robust Corpse Body (Increases base physique by a hundred percent, negates ninety percent of physical damage, can absorb fresh blood from beings to heal self-induced damage, healing effect is increased fivefold)
Skill: Claw of the Corpse (Half-god)
Corpse Poison (Half-god) (Attacks come with corpse poison, which can corrupt creatures whose attributes do not exceed ten times one’s own, reducing the target’s defense by five trillion.)
…
These are the attributes of the fourth wave of corpses.
They have become a good deal stronger.
Although for Dean McKenzie, there’s not much difference.
But when Dean McKenzie was extracting these corpses’ attributes, he came across a pleasant surprise.
[You have extracted 330,000 “Strong Corpses”, received 1,650 trillion attribute points, received 330,000 Strong Templates!]
[You have extracted 330,000 “Agile Corpses”, received 1,650 trillion attribute points, received 330,000 Agile Templates!]
[You have extracted 330,000 “Robust Corpses”, received 1,650 trillion attribute points, received 330,000 Robust Templates!]
He obtained nearly one million various templates.
And when Dean McKenzie tried to bestow these templates onto his skeletons, he found that he could.
Moreover, it was quite cheap, costing just 1 God’s Gold Coin.
So Dean McKenzie splurged, bestowing three templates on every skeleton under his command.
Then, the attributes of the Bone Legion under Dean McKenzie’s command became “Strong and Agile, Robust Skeleton Warriors” or “Strong and Agile, Robust Skeleton Archers,” boasting increasingly long titles.
Although the titles had become longer, the effects were still quite good.
Although it didn’t directly increase base attributes by a hundred percent like the corpses, it did increase base attributes by ten percent.
That is to say, a single title has allowed the skeletons under Dean McKenzie to increase at least 151 quintillion in various attributes. Their strength has seen a substantial increase.
As the fourth round began, some started to withdraw from the challenge.
By the time the fourth round ended, four of the forces had already withdrawn from the challenge. These were the ones that ranked towards the end.
In the fifth and sixth rounds, another one to two hundred forces withdrew.
This boosted Dean McKenzie’s rank from 9001 to 8788!
He made some progress, but he still has some distance to cover to reach the 500 mark. Of course, it’s even further away from Dean McKenzie’s limit at this point.
Suddenly, the seventh wave broke out.
In this round, the attributes of the corpses have once again changed.
…
Name: Extra Strong Corpse
Level: 251
Attributes:
Strength:120+240 Trillion, Agility: 2 Trillion, Spirit: 0.1 Trillion, Physique: 200 Trillion
Talent: Extra Strong Corpse Body (Boosts base attributes by two hundred percent, negates ninety percent of physical damage, can absorb fresh blood from beings to heal self-induced damage.)
Skill: Claw of the Corpse (God Level)
Corpse Poison (God Level) (Attacks come with corpse poison, which can corrupt creatures whose attributes do not exceed ten times one’s own, reducing the target’s defense by five trillion.)
…
In this wave, the levels of all the corpses have reached 251, and all attributes have reached 362 Trillion.
The attributes have increased a hundredfold compared to the previous round. The difficulty of this wave has increased directly by a hundredfold, even more than a thousandfold.
Therefore, from this round on, the message of elimination began to refresh frantically.
In less than half an hour, more than five hundred names are eliminated.
By the time the wave of the monsters fully emerged, Dean McKenzie’s rank had already reached 7621.
Moreover, Dean McKenzie’s rank continues to rise constantly.
But Dean McKenzie’s attention wasn’t on the progress of ranking; he was fully concentrating on what he was extracting from these corpses.
Apart from attribute points, there was also an addition of templates starting with “Extra”.
Dean McKenzie once again extracted these templates, bestowing them on the skeletons under his command, turning them into “Extra Strong, Extra Agile, Extra Robust Skeleton Warriors” or “Extra Strong, Extra Agile, Extra Robust Skeleton Archers.”
The titles were incredibly long, and the skeleton warriors or archers looked extraordinarily formidable.
The template increased the original ten percent increment to a thirty percent increment of attributes. That is to say, with just one title, the attributes of the skeletons under Dean McKenzie’s command had increased almost twofold!
