Chapter 166 Modified Luck
Half a month has passed.
The situation in the North has also changed somewhat.
Previously hiding and secretly deploying troops, the Wolves have finally torn off all pretense and are no longer concealing themselves.
Earl of Benlang issued a decree to confer the title of lord.
He summoned all his vassals except for Chiffon, reorganized the standing army of his territory, and forcibly built up a huge army group.
Three thousand extraordinary soldiers.
More than thirty magicians.
Nearly a thousand knights.
This number of knights has reached half of the Northern Expeditionary Army assembled by Grand Duke Frostfox.
...
Once the news spread...
The entire North is in an uproar!
The shadow of war spread like the mist over the black pine forest, enveloping the entire North and causing great alarm to everyone.
Now that Grand Duke Frostmooth has led his main force on an expedition to the Cape Region, leaving his home base vulnerable, Wolves are taking this opportunity to rebel against the feudal lords and forcibly seize the power that the Northern Territory holds!
Once successful...
Many lords will be expelled.
Otherwise, where would the Wolves get so many fertile lands to reward their people and strengthen their forces?
The vassals who drive out the frost will naturally gain a large amount of farmland and population, which is exactly what all lords desire most.
Panic spread like a plague.
Countless territories quickly dispatched their fastest messengers to report the news to the Cape Region and the Imperial Capital.
Request support!
...
The North is in chaos.
Only chiffon cakes remained unchanged.
The construction site continued to work diligently, tamping the earth.
Maid...
cough!
The mine shafts were also being dug rapidly.
It wasn't that Chiffon was out of touch with the news, but rather that Richard had become much calmer with the situation developing to this point.
However, this composure did not stem from Earl of the Wolf's assurance, but from the fact that the entire Chiffon Legion had already entered the intermediate extraordinary level!
More than half a month ago.
Celia was the first to break through to the intermediate level.
Lina, Nicole, Owen, Im, and others who also possessed extraordinary talent, including Richard himself, took almost ten days to advance.
Only the soldiers of the Chiffon Legion collectively achieved their breakthrough two days ago.
The gap was obvious, and the importance of extraordinary talent was fully demonstrated at this moment.
This is even with Chiffon providing Iridium food every day, and life energy being poured into her body like it's free.
If it were any other territory, Silver Star crops would have to be eaten sparingly, counting every grain on your fingers.
I want to progress from beginner to intermediate level.
Don't even think about it for at least three to five years.
This is also the most fundamental difference between the Chiffon Legion and other extraordinary legions:
The soldiers of other legions are talented and have a solid foundation, but they don't have enough food to feed them.
The soldiers of the Chiffon Legion started late and had zero talent, but they ate and ate their fill every day, and forcibly increased their cultivation level.
That's a stupid method.
But it works.
...
but.
Everyone has broken through to the intermediate extraordinary level, plus extraordinary class combinations, buff food at every meal, an abundance of various alchemical potions, and equipment bonuses from the first generation of weapons.
This increased the Chiffon Legion's combat power several times over, allowing them to easily crush most of the high-level legions in the Northern Territory.
The legions of those established territories were mostly composed of a mix of mid- to high-level extraordinary soldiers, which was far inferior to the luxurious configuration of the Chiffon Legion.
Although he was still no match for the Knights, who were all cavalry, Richard was now fully confident that he could cope with the impending war and turmoil in the North.
because...
--Da Yun has broken through to the Lan Yue level!
Aside from the Saintly Glory level, which is rare even in the entire empire, the Lan Yue level is almost the highest level of conventional combat power that a typical territory can achieve.
As powerful as a wolf.
They couldn't even gather ten, and some of them were actually Storm Moon-level monsters that the Earl had tamed in the wild.
In contrast, Frost, the big brother of the northernmost region, only has one commander of the Frost Knights, who is at the Lan Yue level.
...
The rock-armored earth dragon that had followed Richard from the early days of development finally broke through the battle rank barrier and became the first Lan Yue-level combatant in Qifeng Territory.
The day it broke through.
The whole chiffon cake was boiling with excitement.
The soldiers cheered, brandishing their weapons; the serfs knelt in worship; even Karl, a veteran who had seen many powerful warriors, was moved to tears.
Great fortune is on its side.
Chiffon cake is a sure thing!
Richard was all smiles and immediately ordered the crafts department to customize a complete set of modified weapons and armor for Da Yun.
The crafts department has only one blacksmith.
Making regular armor is no problem for him, but custom-making a set of armor for the Rock Armored Earth Dragon is as difficult as climbing to the heavens.
The Universiade is enormous.
He is nearly three meters tall.
It is 2.7 meters wide.
It is over ten meters long.
Ordinary armor plates can't even cover its scales; forcing it would be time-consuming, laborious, and ineffective.
However, Richard was definitely not going to play by the rules. He had Owen use the available materials to make a bunch of high-level magical equipment.
Then...
Disassemble them all!
Re-weld!
Although game equipment loses its game attributes after being disassembled, these equipment remnants are themselves magical materials in reality.
Its hardness and strength far exceed those of other ironware, and it can even reach the standard of intermediate magic equipment, making it perfect for modification.
Owen first disassembled the blade of the Crystal Greatsword, knocked off the hilt, and forged a thick iron sleeve to weld to the end of the hilt.
Finally, it fit perfectly onto the two horns of the Grand Canal.
This change
The horn of the Great Fortune Sword extends outwards by 1.5 meters, with its sharp crystal blade pointing outwards; it's terrifying just to look at.
A single charge could turn even a Star-level enemy into a skewer of meat if they were standing in a row without any defensive measures.
Simply changing the horns isn't enough.
Richard then had Owen manufacture and disassemble fifty [Steel Shields], thirty sets of [Silver Armor], and twenty [Frost Daggers].
After being melted and cast, they are strung together to form thick armor plates, creating a tailor-made armor set for the Grand Canal.
chest The armor plates were layered three times over vital areas such as the abdomen.
Sharp frost blade spikes were specially added to the shoulders, sides, and groin—areas where attacks could occur.
Once fully armed, the already massive Dayun instantly transformed into a mobile steel fortress!
...
Goodness...
As it moved, the armor plates collided with a loud clang, the horns glittered, and its body was covered with spikes.
Let alone monsters, even if the heavy cavalry of the Knights charged in, they would be smashed to pieces.
Richard touched the cool armor of the Great Wall and smiled smugly.
Once the [Enchantment Modification] is loaded, add magical attributes to this set of equipment, and finally have the Heavenly Songstress apply the Fury Aura.
He would like to see.
Below the Saintly Glory level.
Who can withstand the violent impact of the Great Fortune?
The Great Fortune is no longer a simple Lan Yue-level weapon; Richard has redefined its battle rank.
--Majorly modified level!
...
Its attire completely shocked Karl and the others.
To know.
The magical materials on it, if added together, could arm a knightly order of about thirty people!
Only a lord would dare to be so extravagant, disregarding actual combat benefits and recklessly arming a combat mount.
Compared to the mounts of other knights, the Great Calculator enjoyed the top-tier treatment usually reserved for family heirs.
