Heroes of Might and Magic: Knight Chapter 332: Rewards and the construction of the Stone Fortress
"Orc Crisis (Completed)."
"Get it!"
"Congratulations on gaining 1.5 million experience points."
"Congratulations on getting the treasure-Dragon Tooth Necklace
Effect: The attack power of the owner of the treasure and the soldiers under his command +3, and the mental power of the carrier +2”
"Congratulations on gaining the service of an outstanding swordsman. An outstanding swordsman has joined your command."
The rewards for this mission are quite generous. The experience alone is a huge amount. It is nearly twice as much as the experience rewards for the previous Sea Clan missions. However, these experiences are not suitable for Richard, who now needs a lot of experience to upgrade. It's still not enough to upgrade, so I have to save it.
The treasure is the Dragon Tooth Necklace, which has an average effect when viewed alone, but it has made Richard's progress in collecting all the Dragon King's divine power once again advanced, which is not a small gain.
As for the unit reward, Richard was once again given an outstanding swordsman. In comparison, the role of an outstanding swordsman on the battlefield may be slightly weaker than that of giant creatures such as dragons and ultimate hydra. After all, reality It's not a game. This size is just there, and its deterrence against the enemy will be stronger.
However, the application scope of the superb swordsman is wider. Richard cannot carry the giant dragon and hydra wherever he goes, but the superb swordsman can be used as a bodyguard to protect his home. , it can be used as an unparalleled weapon on the battlefield, and it is also extremely practical.
The dragon tooth necklace also appeared on the table in the Congress Hall as usual. The style of the necklace is quite rough. It is a necklace strung together with several dragon teeth, as if a few small daggers were strung on it. It can't be said to be ugly, but it doesn't match Richard's outfit very well. However, Richard still carefully picked up the dragon tooth necklace and put it on, only covering it slightly under his armor.
"Dragon Tooth Necklace and Angel Necklace can only have one treasure attribute that has an effect, please choose."
Sure enough, two treasures in the same part cannot have an effect at the same time. Necklaces and rings are different. Anyway, there are many fingers, and there is room for wearing a few more rings. After all, there is only one neck. Maybe the two-headed ogre could wear two necklaces?
Shaking his head, Richard stopped his divergent thinking and first took off the angel necklace from his neck. In terms of increasing attributes, the dragon tooth necklace is better than the angel necklace, but the angel necklace has one Good initiative ability.
Unlike the game, there is no way to change the treasure after the battle starts. But in reality, as long as Richard is fast enough, he can immediately change the angel necklace when he needs to use the angel necklace's active ability. Being able to do both is the perfect solution.
After receiving the reward, Richard stood in the lobby and waited for about ten minutes. After finding that there were no new tasks, he left and went to another place.
…
"Your distinguished envoy, Grandet..."
"Look at this month's products and don't talk too much."
As soon as Richard entered the door, he interrupted Grandet's work compliments. He was more interested in this month's products than listening to the old miser's compliments.
Soon, information about the four categories of commodities appeared in front of Richard.
"Treasure type: Cloak of Speed.
Effect: The movement speed of the wearer and his soldiers is increased by 10%.
Introduction: A very stylish cloak.
Price: 8,000 gold”
"Potion: Enhanced Knight Potion X2
Introduction: A master potion's masterpiece, which he often uses to train his servants.
Effect: Increases the user's probability of breaking through the bottleneck, suitable for breakthroughs from knight level to great knight level.
Price: 3000 Kinnar. ”
"Soldier Type: Golden Dragon
Introduction: A seventh-level advanced unit of the barrier (elf) force. Although its temperament is the gentlest among the dragons, it does not prevent it from becoming one of the top creatures.
Price: 10,000 gold. ”
"Resource type: rare resource package
Open it to randomly obtain a certain number of precious resources.
Price: 1000 Kinnar. ”
Although there is no Dragon King series that Richard wants most, the effect of the Cloak of Speed is indeed pretty good. With this cloak stacked with Richard's other two treasures and the Logistics Skill, if you only bring the system army, the speed will be very high. If you can fly, you may be able to cover a distance of two hundred kilometers a day.
The only problem is that this speed cloak is different from the simple appearance in the game. It has a bright red background and exquisite corners with some mysterious runes embroidered on it.
Yes, wearing this cloak will make Richard even more dazzling on the battlefield, but now Richard has too many lice to bite people. Anyway, the Vulcan Sword and Golden Armor are already conspicuous enough, and there are not many more. He has a cloak. Richard has always wanted to be an old **** on the battlefield, but the system doesn't give him a chance and keeps building him up to be the most dazzling star on the battlefield. He is used to being targeted on the battlefield.
When it comes to fighting in the future, you can have two outstanding swordsmen on the left and one on the right escorting you, and you have to follow an archangel just in case.
The Strengthening Knight Potion is also good. Compared with the ordinary knight potion, the price is several times higher, but it can be used to cultivate great knights and can be used as a reward to some loyal subordinates.
Of course, the golden dragon must be bought. Without being able to build a seventh-level biological nest, the market and tasks are the only channels for him to obtain seventh-level soldiers. However, after Richard’s buying and selling, the Hunter family’s Finances are going to be tight again.
As for the last treasured resource pack, Richard didn’t quite understand what it meant. In the past, Richard could collect resources through real channels, which was much cheaper than buying them through the market. Every time expensive resources appeared, Richard ignored them. dropped.
…
"Congratulations on getting wood x5, stone x5, mercury x2, sulfur x2, gems x2, and crystal x2."
"Damn..."
Blind boxes are harmful. With the mentality of opening the blind box to see if there is any goods, Richard bought the so-called resource gift package. Of course, the result was a loss of blood. Except for gems and crystals, these resources were slightly more expensive. For Richard, it's almost like giving it away. If the system dares to collect resources, let alone its selling price, even if it is recycled at a 50% discount of the selling price, Richard can use the wood and stone produced by Hunter Territory. The market sold to bankruptcy.
Forget it, it’s only about a thousand jinnar. Now Richard is also rich. Unlike in the early days, he had to go to the ironwood forest and waste most of the day hunting just for a few jinnar. The next step is to wait until dark and the tavern opens. .
The golden dragon descended from the sky again and stopped in the big square outside the market, but the people around it were already used to it. Now Stone Castle is no longer a pure system city, but there are not many residents for the time being. Some workers and family members involved in infrastructure construction are not allowed to set foot in core areas where system buildings such as markets and parliaments are clustered.
It should be dark for another hour or two, so Richard took advantage of this time to walk around the outer city of Stone Castle.
After Liz's statue was erected in Stone Castle, Richard arranged the construction work of the outer city. After all, a life extension and a cultivation gain function were enough for Richard to build it as the main city.
Although Ironwood City is a place of fortune, apart from the lumber trade, it has basically no other features. The location is also a bit too remote, which means that the main members of the Hunter family still habitually stay in Ironwood City.
Gradually moving the main members of the Hunter family to Stonehenge is Richard's next plan. When the city is completed, the relocation plan will begin.
In the past, the Stone Castle was closed because there were too many secrets in the system, for fear of attracting interested people. Now, even big bosses like the Lord of the Rising Sun have been offended. Looking around, there is nothing worth worrying about.
"One, two, one two..."
"Work harder, work harder!"
"Steward! Assign some more kobolds to us here. They can lay the foundation faster!"
"Wait a minute, the kobolds trained in Demon Suppression City are still on the way. They will arrive in two days. You should work harder first, don't be lazy!"
"How can you be lazy? You can't be lazy even if you work for Master Richard for free. Besides, Master Richard also paid you wages. Isn't it unconscionable to be lazy! Don't I want to work faster?"
"Okay, okay, I know you are loyal to Mr. Richard, work hard!"
Now on the Hunter family's construction site, kobolds have become the most popular slaves. Although these guys are not very strong, they are diligent and easy to raise. They have good endurance and are obedient. They can do ten jobs a day. A few hours of food was less than half that of an adult. The kobolds who had received preliminary training in the Demon City were assigned to various places and abruptly improved the progress of the Hunter family's various projects.
Like the outer city of Stone Fortress, it took more than a month to take shape. In addition to the good level of workers in Hunter Territory, it was also inseparable from the hard work of a large number of kobolds day and night.
On the contrary, the previous masters of the kobolds, the ogres, were the object of disdain. Although these guys had good strength, they were very clumsy and had bad tempers. Only by tempering one's temper can one use it.
Now that he is in charge of the Demon City and manages the wilderness, Lint has developed into a slave leader. Every month, he sends a large number of cheap and easy-to-use kobold slaves to the Hunter family, which is short of manpower.
Richard was walking on the large construction site outside the Great Stone Castle and was very satisfied with the rapid progress of city construction.
Richard has no moral obsession with this kind of thing. Even if Lin Te doesn't do it, Richard will try to use the kobolds as slaves. Richard's moral bottom line only works on the same kind of people. For aliens, That can only be done by increasing the intensity.
"Lord Richard!"
"Lord Richard!"
Because Richard's clothing was too eye-catching, he was noticed by the stewards and workers outside the city from a distance.
The attitude of these managers and workers towards Richard is no longer ordinary respect, but there is a faint tendency to become fanatical supporters,
This is also easy to understand. Wherever a leader appears who can continuously win wars and improve the living standards of the people at the same time, simple people will easily become his fanatical supporters. The people led by Hunter were already unruly people who only knew about Richard but not about the king. If Richard told them that he would lead them to rebel, then this group of people would be excited and want to help Richard capture Renn. The chair he was sitting on was snatched away.
Richard habitually waved to the workers who supported him, which aroused an even more enthusiastic response from the workers. Even a group of working kobolds became excited.
They don’t have the knowledge to be slaves yet. Although they work more after coming to the North, their lives are much better than when they were vassals of the ogres in the wilderness. At least Richard and Hunter The people in the family have no intention of using these kobolds to death, but they still have enough to take care of and have enough to eat. For the kobolds, it is already a very happy thing. Doing some work is nothing, and in the Demon Suppression City During the training, Haba's dog management also instilled a lot of loyalty to Richard. The kobolds who were now vaguely aware that they had met their true master showed the same fanatical emotions as the human workers.
"Okay, okay! Let's continue working and be more diligent. Mr. Richard is still watching!"
Seeing that Richard finally pressed his hand, the manager was very cooperative and allowed people to return to work. The excited people were much more motivated than before.
"Good day, Lord Richard"
"Are you the manager here?"
"Well, I was arranged to come here by Mr. Egg. I had been training at Ironwood City Academy for a while in Ironwood City."
The most valued members of the Hunt family's affairs officers will usually be sent to Ironwood City for short-term study, and they will be promoted upon graduation.
This steward is obviously also a key training target. He has experience in handling affairs and has studied intensively. Now he is directly sent to the Stone Castle to be fully responsible for the construction of the city, which can be regarded as being reused. Judging from the orderly appearance outside the giant stone castle, this man still has some abilities and has lived up to Egg's trust.
"How long will it take to complete the city?"
“The main building will take about a month, and I’m afraid it will take another three to four months to complete it.”
"Yeah."
Richard nodded. He was quite satisfied with this speed. Although the entire city was only preliminary planned, it was extremely efficient to be completed within half a year. Looking at Richard nodding to express his satisfaction, this The steward was obviously inspired, with a look of excitement on his face.
"Did you feel anything different in Stone Castle?"
"What's different?"
"Indeed, I feel a little more energetic than before when working at Stone Castle, and even some of the previous problems have not occurred."
This steward is in his forties. If he has not become a knight at this age, he will generally have some minor problems.
If others heard this, they might think it was just the steward's flattery, but after listening to it, Richard thought about it for a while, and it should be the characteristics of Liz's statue that came into play.
"Do other workers have this situation?"
“Everyone is very motivated and generally feels more energetic than before. Even the progress of the project is much faster than before.”
The effect of Liz's statue is stronger than Richard imagined. For a person of Richard's strength, this effect is just better than nothing, but for ordinary people, it is simply a divine grace and makes no difference.
Looking at the sky, Richard found that the sun was almost setting completely while he was wandering around. Some workers had already taken out torches and were preparing to light them. There is no such thing as a night's rest in the Hunter's project...
"Well done, good job."
Richard patted the steward on the shoulder and then returned to the inner city of Stone Castle. The tavern was about to open.
Only the excited steward stayed where he was.
Master Richard just patted me on the shoulder! Is this last sentence intended to reuse me? Maybe it will be promoted and reused next? You have to do your job well!
As everyone knows, this is Richard's habitual encouragement method. This time, Richard neglected to even ask his name...
