Chapter 535 - 258: Lin Rui’s Legendary-level Strategic Trait
CHAPTER 535: CHAPTER 258: LIN RUI’S LEGENDARY-LEVEL STRATEGIC TRAIT
The heroes of the Golden Pansy Domain are actually very clearly positioned.
Legendary Hero Caroline is an Archer Hero, commanding all long-range output units of the domain.
Legendary-level Hero Violet is a Knight Hero, commanding the domain’s mobility force and absolute elite, responsible for maneuvering on the battlefield and seeking breakthrough opportunities.
Rare Level Hero Hanna, this Little Enchanting Demon is a support hero, capable of a wide range of weakening opponent’s Physical Defense, Spiritual Resistance, and resistance will.
Heroic Spirit Level Hero Terion, known as the Priest, is actually a frontline melee tank, commanding the main infantry of the domain to form a line, delivering frenzied melee output.
Obviously, among the five heroes, there is still a lack of a Mage Hero, responsible for large-scale output and battlefield control.
And Audrey clearly fills this Mage position. As a hero inclined towards a Dark Mage style, she relies on numerous Summoned Creatures and Dark Energy Prayer to support large-scale output capabilities on the battlefield.
And as a Dark Mage, one of her greatest advantages is that her traits generally strengthen her Summoned Creatures, namely the Undead Soldiers’ combat power.
Upon hearing Lin Rui’s inquiry, Audrey happily said, "I drew a very good trait, [Soul Link]."
[Soul Link·Epic Trait: You have a special link with souls, allowing you to manipulate the Power of the Soul. Each time your Summoned Creature deals damage, it can absorb the opponent’s Life Value, restoring its own Life Value equivalent to 20% of the damage dealt. Additionally, the linked Summoned Creature can enhance its own attributes through manipulation of the Power of the Soul, choosing to increase one attribute (Physique, Will, Attack Power, Defense, Critical Strike Rate) by 30% every 60 seconds, lasting 30 seconds.]
Dark Mages usually control undead units through Magic Power linked by Dark Magic.
Hearing the name Audrey mentioned, Lin Rui guessed it would strengthen her Summoned Creatures.
Just didn’t expect it to be so direct. Comprehensive enhancement of the soldier’s lifesteal capability, and the ability to use soul power to strengthen any one attribute by 30%.
Frankly speaking, the profession of the Dark Mage inherently possesses Strategic Attributes. An ordinary trait showcased the characteristics of the strategic type.
After reading it, Lin Rui somewhat understood why Audrey wanted to find a mount for the Blood Knight.
The Blood Dragon Knight itself possesses vampire-like healing traits, adding a mount would increase the attack speed and widen the attack range, making it practically a perpetual motion machine on the battlefield.
Lin Rui curiously asked, "You’re not trying to summon Epic-level soldiers, but using Blood Dragon Knight directly?"
Audrey rolled her beautiful eyes angrily and said, "No more summoning. These damn things are all acting like they’re so high and mighty. If I summoned a few Epic-level soldiers, who knows what mess would ensue. Anyway, the strength of the Blood Dragon Knight is very strong, especially on large-scale battlefields, not necessarily weaker than Epic-level Holy Grail Knights. It’s good to use them."
Tier Five Blood Dragon Knights already possess the [Mighty Power of the Dragon Race] trait, each Blood Dragon Knight on the battlefield increases all Blood Dragon Knights’ Life Value by +300, Physical Attack Power by +300, True Damage by +10.
To be honest, it’s really very powerful.
If a squad can be assembled, the [Mighty Power of the Dragon Race] alone would provide 36,000 points of Life Value. It’s comparable to advancing to Super-Tier.
Of course, assembling a squad of this scale is indeed quite difficult.
Depending on summoning, Audrey wouldn’t be able to gather enough even if she leveled up to 200.
Lin Rui had to consider whether there were other means to enhance this Dark Mage’s summoned military strength.
But this matter isn’t urgent for the moment; the Command Value consumed by just 120 Blood Dragon Knights would be difficult for Audrey to resolve.
So Lin Rui casually asked, "Which mount do you fancy?"
Audrey pointed to the Scorpion Lion running in the stables and said, "I think this one is pretty good. It can run and fly, and it’s big and fierce. But alas, there’s only one. I’m considering what animal to breed it further with."
Lin Rui decisively pulled her wrist away and said, "Stop with those devilish thoughts. It’s hard for me to accept a scorpion and a lion breeding a Scorpion Lion. I think Blood Dragon Knights shouldn’t ride these chaotic mounts, if not, ride Nightmare Warhorses like Dark Knights.
The most amazing thing in this world, Lin Rui found, was that most species didn’t have reproductive isolation.
Horses and donkeys produce mules, humans and goblins produce humans, humans and dogs can produce Kobolds, it’s downright odd.
Therefore, if a Scorpion Lion bred with another animal to produce some odd offspring, Lin Rui really couldn’t imagine it.
Audrey protested unhappily, "Ah, father, don’t pull me away. I haven’t made my choice yet. I don’t want to ride a Nightmare Horse, that’s too ordinary."
"Ordinary means throughout long history, someone has already proven it’s the optimal choice. If you have no peculiar traits to merge two troop strengths, the optimal choice won’t be wrong. If truly not possible, get a Bone Dragon Knight."
Speaking of Bone Dragon Knight, Lin Rui remembered and asked, "What about the corpse of the old Green Dragon? It was an Epic-level unit, why didn’t you turn it into a Bone Dragon?"
Audrey muttered, "There’s no such thing as too much good fortune. Dragon Crystal can cultivate other Giant Dragons, and the corpse can bring out a Bone Dragon. One dragon two uses? The Dragon Crystal is taken out, and the remaining energy in the corpse isn’t sufficient to animate the massive dragon corpse. Only a Fear Beast was pulled out."
