The retreating ghost vampire did not quit, but circled around and rushed to a gap in the wall, apparently wanting to break through a gap first.
At this moment, an elite archer drew his bow and aimed at a wounded vampire, shot an arrow at its heart, and shot it down directly.
At the moment of the vampire's death, a circle of clear light suddenly rose from the elite archer's body, and Lin Xiao received a prompt at the same time:
"You have an elite archer who has accumulated enough combat experience and has been promoted to an elite archer."
He looked over in great surprise. After the clear light rose, the elite archer's equipment changed.
A set of leather armor turned into an exquisite hollow light armor with exquisite patterns, a delicate hollow light helmet on the head, a cluster of green feathers inserted on the top of the head, and the longbow in his hand also turned into a larger and more gorgeous longbow, with a faint light flowing on it.
The promoted archer was taller, and his aura was several times stronger than before. He looked more agile, and his eyes were filled with a bit of wisdom.
He quickly pulled out an arrow, put it on a larger and more sophisticated bow, and shot it. A vampire in the air tilted its body, and black flames burned directly at the place where the arrow hit it, and soon burned into a ball of black embers and dissipated.
Once a vampire dies in battle, it will burn into black ashes and disappear without a corpse.
The same is true for ghosts.
Compared with the arrow that shot a wounded vampire before the promotion, this time it killed a full-status vampire with one arrow, and the combat power increased dramatically.
It is worthy of the suffix of elite, and it is also worthy of the extremely difficult promotion conditions.
You must know that this elite archer followed him in the earliest batch. He was an elite level at the beginning. In addition to the 100% experience bonus of the truth talent, he has been fighting until now to accumulate enough experience to be promoted to elite. This difficulty can be said to be exaggerated.
Once promoted, he is reborn.
One more elite archer is equivalent to one more powerful firepower point.
At the same time, Lin Xiao gathered all the elite archers that were synthesized at the earliest stage under his command, and there were still 24 of them. He sent a small team of spearmen to protect them closely, and let them specialize in shooting vampires, a mid-level soldier, to see if they could upgrade a few more elites.
In less than two minutes, another elite archer was promoted to elite archer after shooting two vampires in a row.
Lin Xiao was overjoyed and looked at the other archers with expectant eyes.
It was a pity that the spearmen had no chance. As the cannon fodder in the front row, the earliest batch of spearmen had died once, and the current spearmen were all later, and the accumulated experience was not enough for promotion.
The battle situation began to tilt in a certain direction that was expected.
Although there were still so many undead now, and the dense sea of skeletons under the city wall was still so daunting, Lin Xiao felt that this was not scary anymore.
But for Zuo Feng, this endless sea of skeletons was so hateful. The almost endless sea of skeletons surrounded the assault troops he sent out tightly, and now it was difficult to even withdraw to the city.
"It's over!"
He looked desperate.
He didn't have a magic book, and even though he also had a group of well-trained elite archers, he didn't dare to fight against the Corpse Witches. Later, he felt that the Corpse Witches' death bombing was too terrifying, so he gritted his teeth and took a risk. He gathered two knights and ten swordsmen and led a group of elite spearmen out of the city from the other side, trying to sneak attack the Corpse Witches from behind.
The action went smoothly at first, but it was inevitable that they would be discovered when they approached. The Undead Hero immediately ordered half of the skeletons attacking the city to retreat and cooperate with the ghost vampires to encircle this elite commando.
Under the entanglement of ghosts and vampires, the commando could neither approach the Corpse Witches nor retreat.
The two knights and ten swordsmen were fine, but the spearmen who followed them were surrounded and constantly killed by ghosts and vampires, and their number was getting smaller and smaller.
Zuo Feng had no choice but to order the knights and swordsmen to abandon the spearmen and retreat. Regardless of whether they could withdraw, that elite spearman was definitely gone.
Without this elite spearman, he could already foresee his own end.
More than 20 minutes later, under the angry roar of the undead hero, less than a hundred vampires and ghosts evacuated the city wall in a panic, and the endless skeleton army began to retreat. Lin Xiao was in a good mood and stood on the broken city wall looking at the retreating undead army, and did not move.
Although he no longer needed to rely on the city wall to resist, he had lost almost all the middle and high-level soldiers. With only these skeleton zombies, he was confident that he could defeat them head-on even in a field battle.
But be steady, there is no requirement for this treasure to completely destroy the enemy, so there is no need to take risks.
Half an hour later, when the last zombie dragged its broken body across the edge of the copy and disappeared, Lin Xiao's eyes began to become illusory, and a light curtain slowly unfolded in front of him, and white tadpole-like words slowly emerged.
"Congratulations on completing the challenge. Now the settlement begins. The challenge result is being calculated."
Just like a short video loading, there was a buffering, and more than ten seconds later, a line of characters appeared in front of him again:
"The challenge result calculation is over. Your final score is 88 points. Evaluation - Excellent!"
Lin Xiao's mouth twitched. This score was fair and there was nothing to say.
"Based on the comprehensive score and evaluation, you will receive the following rewards - 400,000 gold coins, 200,000 free hero experience, two spearman cards (medium), one archer card (medium), four griffin cards, one swordsman card, one spearman barracks, one archer barracks, one griffin barracks, one swordsman barracks, three random level 1 to 3 treasures, 100,000 military experience, 1,000 points, 10 points of temple reputation, and one unit of crystal wall origin."
Most of the rewards were easy to understand, but the last two points were not very clear. His consciousness fell on these two points and he immediately came up with an explanation.
Military experience is the experience needed for military upgrades. This kind of military experience is needed to upgrade from a recruit to a veteran, then to an elite, and finally to an elite. It also requires elites to accumulate enough experience to be promoted to a hero.
And 100,000 experience points of each type of soldier.
Let's put it this way. Lin Xiao checked the experience tree of a spearman under his command. It only takes 10 experience points for a recruit to upgrade to a veteran, 30 experience points for a veteran to upgrade to an elite, 300 experience points for an elite to upgrade to an elite, and it depends on the different types of soldiers. As a first-level spearman, it takes a full 100,000 experience points of each type of soldier to upgrade from an elite to a hero.
"Good fellow, this is just to give a hero subordinate!"
And it's not enough.
Because he doesn't have elite spearmen now, only four elite archers.
He looked at the experience requirements for elite archers to upgrade to heroes and found that it was 120,000 experience points each, and there was still 20,000 experience points short.
"This is embarrassing!"
Ignoring this for the time being, he checked other aspects.
After the first battle, Lin Xiao accumulated a lot of hero experience. It only took less than 20,000 hero experience points to upgrade to the next level. He quickly pulled out nearly 20,000 from the experience pool, upgraded the hero level to level 2, and immediately obtained two extra strategic attributes.
Yes, upgrading from level 0 to level 1 hero only has one strategic attribute, upgrading to level 2 has two points, and so on, upgrading to level 5 will gain five strategic attributes, it's that simple and crude.
After thinking about it, Lin Xiao added all the two strategic attributes to Agility.
Hero: Lin Xiao.
Core level: Level 2.
Barracks slots: Four.
Population limit: 3,000 people.
Talent: Lord of Truth, for every level of hero upgrade, all attributes of all arms you command +1, combat experience of arms you command +100%, you can consume a lot of resources to upgrade elite arms and above to heroes, the lower the strength of elite arms, the greater the consumption.
Strategic attributes:
Constitution: 2+2+4=7 points
Strength: 2+2=4=7 points
Agility: 1+2+2=4 points
Intelligence: 2 points. Mana: 150 points.
Treasure: Crystal Heart: Level 3 treasure, Constitution +4, Strength +4, Magic resistance +30%, Negative state resistance +30%, Immune to possession, Immune to hypnosis, Immune to charm, Immune to mind control, remove fatal heart area.
Magic book: A magic book with several first-level strategic magics, you can learn more strategic magics by recording spells.
Lin Xiao's eyes quickly passed over other aspects and landed on the talent of the Lord of Truth, with a strange expression on his face.
He had never had an elite soldier, and he had forgotten that his talent seemed to be able to upgrade elite soldiers to heroes by consuming resources.
He was short of 20,000 experience points, so he tried to check it out. Soon, his talent gave feedback that he could consume 200,000 gold coins to replace 20,000 experience points.
"Wow, this price!"
But he still confirmed it without hesitation, and together with the 100,000 free experience points, he chose the first promoted elite archer to continue the promotion.
The vast amount of combat experience turned into a white stream of light like a torrent, wrapping it up, and turned it into a light cocoon emitting surging energy fluctuations. Checking the status, this elite archer entered the promotion state.
Regardless of this for the time being, Lin Xiao chose to receive three random treasures.
As the three streams of light fell, they turned into three items of different shapes and fell into his palm. He looked closely and saw one first-level treasure, two second-level treasures, and no third-level treasures.
"Not bad!"
It's good to have two second-level treasures. If you really get three first-level treasures, you have to bear it.
However, after reading the properties of the three treasures, Lin Xiao fell into deep thought.
The three treasures were the first-level treasure Ghost Touch, which had 1 point of dead energy damage when attacking, and had a chance to make the target stiff for one second when attacking.
The second-level treasure Undead Shield, Constitution +3.
The second-level treasure Vampire Fang, Strength +1, Bloodsucking +15%.
All of them were properties related to the undead, but the properties were quite good, especially the third Vampire Fang, a bloodsucking treasure, which was simply a perfect match.
Needless to say, it
must be strengthened. Lin Xiao instantly had the idea of decomposing the other two treasures to strengthen the Vampire Fang. The properties were fine, but the key was that the bloodsucking effect had to be strengthened.
But he still had to wait a moment, and he set his eyes on the last column of the reward, the crystal wall origin.
At first he thought it was something similar to the plane origin, but after understanding it, he found that it was indeed the case, but it was different.
It should be said that this was a super-enhanced version of the plane origin, and it was indeed the origin of the crystal wall system as he imagined.
Its function is very simple, strengthening cards, strengthening relics, strengthening divine domains, or directly using it to comprehend rules, etc. It can be called a super versatile treasure.
