Heart of Empire Chapter 435: Elite route

Cold-blooded cavalry are serious cavalry that belong to the ranks of heavy cavalry. "Tian" "Lai Novels WwW. ⒉3TXT. COM

This terrifying cavalry unit is equipped with chain mail, and outside the armor is a black coat, with a purple face scarf and a purple cloak.

The armor equipment is not that heavy, but the chain mail made with the craftsmanship of the dark elves is not bad in terms of defense—especially the defense against arrows and piercing weapons.

And the most exaggerated part of them is the spear in their hands.

The shape of the spear is not a typical cavalry spear. Behind the sharp spear head is a long double-edged blade with blood grooves and barbs.

This kind of weapon has an extremely strong armor-piercing ability when charging, and with the support fixed on the back of the dragon beast, this spear can be swung completely. The sharp blade and the protruding barb will be Become a nightmare for light armored units!

Perhaps, the speed and endurance of the Velociraptor for long-distance raids may not be as good as that of the cavalry, and it may also be slightly inferior in the speed of charging. But the dragon beast's weight, which is much heavier than that of a war horse, brought a stronger impact instead. Moreover, the claws on their powerful forelimbs and sharp teeth can completely make up for any shortcomings.

All in all, the Velociraptor must be a mount that is better at killing than a war horse.

The dark elf knight riding the velociraptor is the elite unit of the elves. In terms of direct combat effectiveness, the night saber cavalry of the forest forces are also much worse than them. After all, the night saber cavalry could not be separated from the category of light cavalry no matter what, but the cold-blooded cavalry was already an out-and-out heavy knight.

Touching his chin, Dane felt something strange. Under the dark elf race, except for the troglodytes who are regarded as garbage cannon fodder, the other several levels of arms can almost beat the same level of arms of other races.

Even if you take the powerful griffin cavalry as an example, if they fall to the ground, it is estimated that two or three of them may not be able to beat a cold-blooded cavalry. And if it is replaced by night saber cavalry, it is estimated that a small squad of cold-blooded cavalry can overwhelm a squadron of night sabers.

Similarly, the strength of Minotaur and Medusa may not be inferior to that of Griffin and Nightsaber—you know, these two arms are comparable to Griffin and Nightsaber in terms of level. lower level.

This is of course an advantage. In the follow-up unit building, Dane also saw the fifth-level Gryphon Cavalry—this is a flying unit that is more powerful than the Griffon, as well as the terrifying Hydra of the Abyss, which can compete with real giants. A super monster that dragons want to fight for.

However, there is one biggest problem in the training of dark elves' units - the high cost of training resources and the slow speed of training. In addition, the population of the dark elves itself is small, and the number of troops that can be supported must not be too many.

Moreover, humanoid creatures such as Medusa and Minotaur cannot be acquired by training-the population of these two races is even rarer than the already rare drow!

These two arms, like Griffin and Nightsaber, need to be recruited from other worlds after the arms buildings are built. Such a rate is doomed that they cannot expand faster and more.

The combination of these reasons has led to the fact that the racial force of the dungeon must take a very extreme line of elite soldiers.

In fact, this is exactly the case. Except for the garbage cannon fodder like cavemen, all the arms at all levels are elite.

Dane felt somewhat regretful about the output of arms. However, the so-called loss must be gained, relatively speaking, Dane is still very satisfied with the elite level of the drow army.

Generally speaking, the structure of Shaduolai's arms still brought Dane a lot of surprises. As for some other buildings, Dane also felt that the dungeon city had some unique features.

The dark elves of the good camp have to pay a certain price.

According to the memories in the soul fragments received by Dane, the dungeon base should have a very distinctive building: the altar of sacrifice.

This is actually a pretty central building of the dungeon base. The population of the drow is small, the training of troops is slow, and the formation of troops and troops is also slow. To a large extent, these shortcomings need to be made up for and saved by the building of the "Sacrifice Altar".

The effect of this building is actually only one - put any living beings into the sacrificial altar to kill, and let the corpses and blood exist on the altar for three days. With a cycle of three days, the degree of enrichment of the dark power in the underground city is increased. And the enrichment of this dark magic power will increase the fertility rate of drow elves, the speed of army training, and the speed of army recruitment within a certain period of time. The duration and the strength of the effect are determined by the 'quality' and 'quantity' of the sacrificed creatures.

Traditional dark elves use this method to execute captives, execute 'criminals', and execute losers in political struggles. At the same time, the sacrifice of living beings will also increase the strength of the city, so why not do it? Anyway, the evil drows wouldn't think it was a crime, but would think it was quite a pleasant thing. They would even make the execution scene look like art, a **** art.

But the drow of the good camp can't do this.

The essential function of the sacrificial altar is to please the **** goddess by killing creatures, so as to obtain the power blessed by the goddess. But Edwin obviously doesn't have this function, and killing can't please him, but will make him angry.

Therefore, after choosing Edwin for faith, the Altar of Sacrifice, a core building in a dark elf city, naturally ceased to exist.

In its place ~IndoMTL.com~ is another build.

Temple of the Blind.

"Hall of the Blind: Consume the core magic power of the city, and bring the blessings of the stars to the creatures who come to the hall to be baptized. Units that receive the blessings of the stars will have [Perfect Dark Perception], [Good Luck] ] ability.”

"Perfect dark perception: In complete darkness, you can still have sensitive perception through ears, touch and other methods."

"Good Luck: Units sheltered by good luck will be easier to hit vital points and avoid damage."

The Temple of the Blind is two completely different buildings from the traditional altar of sacrifice owned by the dark elves. Edwin further enhanced the individual combat capability of the elite drow troops; the latter made up for the lack of dark elves.

It's hard to say which one is better and more beneficial to the development of the dungeon, but for Dane, he feels that at the cost of losing the altar of sacrifice, gaining the Hall of the Blind is not a bad thing.
