Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead-Chapter 1320 - 901, A New Boundary Stone?
Judging from the hero’s attributes, what is provided pertains to swordsmanship, and the introduction is all about boosts to swordsmanship.
But no matter how you look at it, they resemble the attributes of an assassin.
An assassin skilled in swordsmanship.
I skimmed through the traits and talents.
Mainly divided into three categories of skills, one is the bonus for spear infantry, one for pirates, and the other is to reduce the chance of the army being scouted.
Useful for sneak attacks, night raids, all handy features for a hero.
Next, I turned to the hero’s skills.
"Killing Mastery" should be a common ability of the Dark Elf, since "Morse" has the same skill.
Name and attributes, exactly the same.
Increases attack power and movement speed.
The second skill "Shadow Tracing" reduces the visibility of the enemy in the darkness, which is just like an assassin.
Other swordsmen confront foes head on; this one hides in the shadows for a surprise attack.
"Dark Venom" isn’t anything special to look at, just weapons coated in poison that affects the enemy’s body and mind.
The Dark Elf indeed has great accomplishments in the field of poison.
"Swordsmanship Monument" is an enhancement skill, increasing both attack power and attack speed.
"Rapid Thrust" allows you to thrust in a specified direction, inflicting 75% piercing damage. For the next 30 seconds, both attack speed and movement speed are increased.
This is quite nice, falling into the category of short-range mobility skills.
If used well, it can also be employed to escape.
"Black Lotus Glory" is definitely an ultimate move, and even the name is quite ornate.
It’s a set of sword techniques; the first strike deals 150% physical damage, and each subsequent hit on the target adds an extra 30% damage.
In addition, every skill is about increasing attack power and speed; the more you fight, the smoother and more ferocious the attacks become.
This hero is quite remarkable.
At the very least truly fitting of a Dark Gold Hero’s ranking.
After finishing, Fang Hao closed the Book of Lords.
His gaze returned to below.
"Are there still heroes left in the museum?" Fang Hao asked.
"Yes, my lord, there is one more human hero left," the funeral priest immediately replied.
There were three hero’s bodies obtained from the Skeleton Island campaign.
Two have been produced, leaving one more.
And now with a sufficient number of heroes within the territory, Nelson can stay in the Viscera Museum for a long time without slowing down progress.
"Okay." Fang Hao nodded, then turned his gaze to the Dark Elf standing aside.
"Hoyle, how many of your Dark Elves are still out there?"
The crafted heroes would still retain most of their former memories.
During this time, the few Dark Elf heroes I’ve encountered actually had quite high ranks.
There’s also a portion of them skilled in herb identification, alchemy, and some other specialized knowledge.
They belong to a race with abundant talents.
The Dark Elf Undead thought for a moment, then respectfully answered, "My lord, I know of a small island where a number of Dark Elves reside."
"At sea? Is it close to Skeleton Island?"
"Not too far, there’s a certain distance from Skeleton Island..."
"Do you have a map?" Fang Hao continued to inquire.
"My lord, there is a marked map on Skeleton Island," said the Dark Elf Undead plainly.
There are Dark Elves, so they could be worth making contact with.
But there’s no rush; given the current situation, dealing with the Orc War God’s problem and recruiting races could be handled by my subordinates.
"Okay, I understand. There’s a battle on the border with the Blood Clan against the Orcs, and I plan to send you there to assist Ms. Rolana in commanding the battle," Fang Hao began to delegate tasks.
"I obey my lord’s command."
Fang Hao nodded, then said to the funeral priest: "Alright, you can go back now."
"Yes, my lord."
After the funeral priest left, Fang Hao opened the transport light screen and sent Hoyle to Black Wind Castle.
There are few demigods; Dark Gold also counts as top combat power.
Now with the addition of the Dark Elf Undead, it’s a significant enhancement to the overall strength.
As night approached, the Skeleton merchant brought two ornate pieces of gold tableware.
All were purchased from the Trade Alliance, even though they are just ordinary gold artifacts without attributes.
They are all either ornate or expensive collectibles.
Those things nobles dabble in.
Fang Hao had Nisbit, who was outside the door, receive them, before he headed to the Dragon Queen’s residence.
These loyalty points are scratching at my heart.
...
In the blink of an eye, another two days passed.
There was no news from the Orcs, Black Wind Castle under Rolana’s command kept receiving reinforcements, both Fang Hao and the Blood Clan continued to bolster it.
All to put pressure on the Orcs using Black Wind Castle.
To draw their attention there and prevent them from causing havoc elsewhere.
Fang Hao had been in the main city, these two days wandering around the Trade Alliance buying things, or visiting the Fire Hammer Shop to increase rapport among other things.
In short, he was on the lookout for new strategies while waiting for news from the Ancient Saint and the Sea God.
He also tried to get the Dragon Queen to move around, not to seek deities but to find some power allies to pressure the Orcs would also be good.
After all, having been a demigod for so many years, she couldn’t possibly not know anyone!
But he overestimated the Dragon Queen’s popularity.
The attitude of all races towards the Dragon Clan was to respect them but keep a distant.
Not antagonizing them was already fortunate.
Of course, the Dragon Queen wouldn’t actually get involved in these matters, preferring to drink tea every day. Now she likes to watch the Skeleton merchants count currency.
Fang Hao even suspected she was looking for loopholes to scheme a betrayal.
Today at noon, right after Fang Hao returned from outside,
he heard the chirpy and excited discussion of the maids inside the Lord’s mansion.
Entering the hall, he saw several figures pounce towards him.
"Master, you’re back!" Eira lifted her head, and her large ears twitched.
"Yes, what’s the good news that has made everyone so happy?" Seeing everyone’s joyful faces, it was clear there was something good they were eager to show off.
Indeed, Little White, with a nod of her small head, said: "We’ve reached the tenth rank; we can advance to Hero now."
Fang Hao gave a careful look.
Indeed, the seven maids in front of him had all simultaneously reached the tenth rank.
"Did you guys coordinate this? All reaching the tenth rank together..."
Hehe!
The maids chuckled.
Fang Hao continued: "Then let’s go, to the Merit Training Ground to advance to Heroes, and in the evening, we’ll hold a celebration banquet."
"Yay..."
The maids cheered and then proceeded toward the Merit Training Ground together.
Seven people reaching the tenth rank at once did seem like a lot.
However, most of them had been at the ninth rank for quite some time, so it made sense that they all suddenly reached the tenth rank.
The group arrived at the training ground together, handed over the materials to the maid.
Then they began the trial.
...
After arranging to enter the Merit Training Ground.
Fang Hao let Anjia, Millie, and the others watch over them since they were all Heroes with related experience.
He then returned to the lord’s mansion to take care of his own affairs.
He sat down on a chair.
Browsing through shops while peeking at the world channel chat.
The world channel was like a big tavern.
Even just by watching, one could learn a lot of information from other people’s conversations.
"Trade Alliance’s 11th District, looking for transmigrators with qualifications to go to the main alliance, I have an invitation to Ms Savana’s wedding banquet and can take you with me."
"’Boutique Sale,’ our shop has listed various ’purple’ boutique equipment available for purchase, special items can be privately discussed with pictures."
"Buying information about bandits from Chaotic Stone Rift, private message for details."
"Any skilled lockpickers? I have a chest that needs opening, DM if you can do it."
"In the Orc territory, they’re looking for a person with an Asian face, many transmigrators have been taken away for questioning today, and I even saw a Demigod from the Orc camp, it was thrilling."
"Your wedding invitation must be found, right? If you received an invitation, how could you possibly not be qualified to go to the main alliance!"
Message after message scrolled quickly.
Fang Hao immediately noticed a critical piece of information.
The Orc territory is looking for someone with an Asian face.
This is... huh.
Aren’t Orcs supposed to not use their brains much and rarely think?
That’s not what he said.
Rather, most Orcs follow the principle of act first, think later.
Instead of worrying about whether or not they should do something, it’s better to strike first and then think about how to divide the spoils.
Why do they start using their brains at this time?
Now they’ve started to target appearances, investigating the transmigrators.
His own hair color, tied to the Dragon Clan Demigod, the Blood Clan Demigod, basically makes his identity not hard to investigate.
Even if they don’t figure him out right now, it probably won’t take very long.
Of course, even if the Orcs find out, they may not necessarily be able to do anything to him.
The regions of both parties are too far apart.
The Orcs would never be able to attack from so far away, the only concern would be the threat of the divine.
Getting a few Demigods involved could be quite the hassle for him.
After monitoring the world channel for a while, he saw no further messages about the Orc territory.
Just as he was about to close the Book of Lords and check which maids had advanced,
suddenly, a message popped up again.
"’World Fragment for Sale,’ a shattered world fragment, uncountable opportunities and treasures, exchange for five Gold equipment pieces, DM if interested."
Seeing this prompt, his eyes instantly widened.
World Fragment!
The first time he encountered this term was after he killed the God of Deception and obtained the world fragment of the Land of Deception.
Could it be that aside from himself, other people have access to external spaces?
Or perhaps they had similar experiences, killing a god to obtain a world fragment?
To prevent this message from being drowned out,
he immediately opened a private chat, first checking the personal shop.
The equipment for sale was all at the blue level, along with some artistically designed pottery jars and pots.
And another special item was the individually displayed ’World Fragment.’
The exchange conditions were five Gold equipment pieces of any kind.
Now, Fang Hao was very interested in this World Fragment.
Even if it was just a space with nothing in it, an empty independent plane,
it would be entirely worth those five Gold equipment pieces.
It was even a steal at that price.
Gold equipment could be made from Blueprints, but World Fragments involved independent planes and divine beings.
After pondering for a moment,
Fang Hao bought several beautifully designed pottery jars in the shop.
Then he added the seller as a friend.
Soon, the seller accepted the friend request.
And sent an expression of surprise.
Fang Hao sent a message, "Did you decorate these jars?"
"It wasn’t me. There are special workers around my domain who paint these jars; they’re supplied to nobility and royalty. If you, Mr Fang Hao, need more, I can arrange a bulk order for you, and customization is also available. Let me know any specific patterns or meanings you want," the seller replied.
A rather lengthy reply; it seemed the seller saw Fang Hao’s interest in the crafts and was looking to make a good sale.
"Okay, I’ll contact you when I need to place an order."
"No problem at all, quality is absolutely guaranteed," the seller continued.
Then, Fang Hao asked, "What’s with the World Fragment in your shop that it costs five Gold equipment?"
"This World Fragment, although unseen among transmigrators yet, is definitely a good thing. Its future value will far exceed Gold equipment."
As if they’ve finally found someone with discernment,
the seller used many adjectives to convey the value of the World Fragment.
