Chapter 71: Regional Synergy
Aridowei City, directly opposite the cult church, a new large building was undergoing its final decorative touches.
This building was entirely different in style from the cult church.
The cult church was a rural chapel turned undead, with a graveyard behind it.
The building before him was clearly in the style of a Greek temple.
However, this temple had turned pitch black, and its walls were adorned with numerous reliefs.
As the final relief was carved, a ding sound echoed in Guxi's ears.
[White Bone Evil Temple construction completed, city experience +3!]
[Building Name: White Bone Evil Temple
Level: Level 1
Trainable Units:
Skeleton (Level 0), automatically trains 30+15 per week, consumes 0 negative energy
Skeleton Archer (Level 3), consumes 30 points of negative energy, can transform a skeleton into a skeleton archer (with 10 arrows)]
[Skeleton Archer (Level 3, Summoned Unit): Experience (0/500), Attack 2+2 (Bow), Defense 1+1 (Leather Armor), Health 10, Ammo 10, Skills: Undead, Archer, First Strike.]
[Ding, discovered synergy between White Bone Evil Temple and Cult Church, do you want to create a Skeleton Training Area?]
"Synergy."
Looking at the information that popped up, Guxi decisively made a decision.
With Guxi's command, the nearby ground shook slightly. Guxi noticed that there were more bone fragments on the ground, and even in front of the White Bone Evil Temple and the Cult Church, there were now bones that had turned into powder.
[Skeleton Training Area Synergy completed, Skeleton training speed increased by 50%, now this area can train 20 (Cult Church) +30 (White Bone Evil Temple) +25 (Well Upgrade) +25 (Area Upgrade), a total of 100 skeletons per week.]
100 skeletons?
Guxi's eyes lit up. He had studied seriously at the Necromancer Academy, and he knew very well that the biggest feature of a necromancer was the Bone Sea tactic.
Here, 100 skeletons could be produced per week, and they could be directly upgraded to level 3, which clearly laid a solid foundation for Guxi.
Guxi decisively ordered: "Recruit, recruit all the skeletons first. Luna, how much negative energy is left? Gather some and prepare to transform skeleton archers."
Luna floated to Guxi. "Master, we just consumed 1500 points of negative energy, which is the accumulation of the last three days. Now we only have 300 points of negative energy left, enough to transform at most 10 skeleton archers."
"10 it is, transform them first, and use the rest as regular skeletons."
Guxi didn't ask further, decisively making the decision.
Under Guxi's command, the relief on the White Bone Evil Temple moved slightly, and the human faces on the relief cracked open, and skeletons with nothing in their hands jumped out from the walls.
This was the way the White Bone Evil Temple recruited skeletons, completely different from the Cult Church, where skeletons waited to be recruited.
The quality of the recruited skeletons was somewhat different.
Although the attributes were the same, the skeletons that crawled out of the relief were noticeably taller.
Guxi didn't look much, just took out 300 points of negative energy and transformed ten skeletons into skeleton archers.
With the infusion of negative energy, the ten skeletons transformed instantly. They now had leather armor, carried a wooden bow, and had a quiver of arrows on their backs.
The hat on their heads was a bit large and tilted downwards, requiring the skeletons to adjust it occasionally.
As the skeletons took their positions, Guxi's three skeleton captains also completed their replenishment.
The skeleton soldiers Guxi had acquired from the Necromancer Academy had been transformed into corresponding units of three battle squads.
Now they stood in the open space outside the Cult Church, holding their weapons.
When Guxi brought forty skeletons and ten skeleton archers out, they quickly assembled.
"Everyone get ready, we have a tough battle ahead. Shaya, you can start."
Under Guxi's command, the third battle squad of skeletons quickly advanced and formed a circle with the zombies in the open space in front of the Cult Church, while other skeletons with weapons stood guard on the perimeter.
Further away, Luna's ghosts and the newly recruited skeletons and skeleton archers waited.
Guxi also found a flagpole and raised the recently acquired Chief Battle Flag, then stood outside the circle of skeletons and zombies with his crushing staff.
Shaya, knowing it was her turn, wore a red dress and held a pair of daggers, standing still.
"Master."
"Are you ready?"
"Ready." Shaya affirmed.
"Good, let's try it once. If there's any danger, retreat quickly."
As Guxi spoke, he handed the Silver Dragon Cloak to Shaya.
Shaya donned the cloak and found herself in a gray space.
In this space, a giant black bone dragon opened its eyes. The dragon, at least fifteen meters long, had black bones like charred remains, with traces of silver flames.
As Shaya entered, the dragon noticed her.
Shaya remembered her mission.
Find the Death Incarnation and bring it back to Aridowei City.
Seeing the bone dragon, Shaya immediately threw a dagger at it.
[Ding! Temporary Mission: Fairy Tale Sacred Relic progress changed, three Death Sacred Relics gathered (3/3, completed), kill the Death Incarnation to activate.]
As the ding sounded in Guxi's ears, he saw a black bone dragon emerge from the black mist, appearing in the skeletons' circle.
"Attack!"
Guxi immediately commanded, and all the zombies and the third battle squad of skeletons charged, using their bodies and shields to press against the giant bone dragon.
Luna screamed at the bone dragon.
Banshee Wail!
The scream made the dragon retreat two steps. At this moment, ten arrows from the skeleton archers hit the dragon.
The bone dragon instinctively lashed out, its tail sending seven skeletons flying.
At this moment, the zombies reached the dragon, grabbed it, and hacked at it with their cleavers.
