Chapter 47: Major Upgrade of the Army

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

And the unit talent tree was his greatest reliance.

First and foremost was the flagship unit of the territory, the Naga Warrior.

[Naga Warrior (Tier 2, 5-Star)]

[Unlocked node A-2: Bloodthirsty Rage (Green Skill -> Blue Skill)] [Requires 800 units of wood, 400 units of thick iron]

[Unlocking node B-2: Naga’s Body (Green Skill -> Blue Skill)] [Requires 800 units of fiber, 400 units of thick iron)

[Unlocked Point C-2: Bloodline Regeneration (Green Skill -> Blue Skill)] [Requires 800 units of clay]

[Unlocked node D-2: Lost control (Race characteristic weakened/strengthened)] [Requires 800 units of clay, 800 units of crude iron]

[Unlocking any node can increase star level or tier.]

With a sum of reserved resources, he was much more confident this time.

He unlocked all four nodes.

In an instant, the resources on the interface were halved.

“Naga Warrior (Tier 2, 5-star) has advanced to Naga Warrior (Tier 3, 5-star).”

“Level cap increased to Level 29.”

Its tier directly increased by ten stars, becoming a tier 3 soldier!

Even their names had changed.

The Naga Warriors, who successfully advanced, underwent significant transformations.

The most notable change was in their weapons.

The pair of bone blades that grew on their arms now radiated a faint silver glow and metallic sheen, greatly enhancing their sharpness.

If used against the Dragon Veins Kobolds they faced before, it would likely cut them in half with a single strike.

Their scales had also become thicker, completely enveloping their bodies like a suit of fish scale armor. Even the most vulnerable area, their necks, sprouted a layer of protective scales, greatly enhancing their defensive capabilities.

[Naga Warrior]

[Level: 7]

[Tier: 3, 5 stars] 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝒏𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡．𝙣𝒆𝙩

[Skill: Bloodthirsty Rage (Blue skill. Once you smell blood, you will become violent and attack crazily. Attack speed and movement speed will increase by 20%)]

Naga’s Body (Blue characteristic, scales cover the entire body and have a better defense, ignoring some damage)

Bloodline Regeneration (Blue characteristic. Bloodline allows it to have a good regeneration ability. Other than the head, heart, and other core parts, all parts can be regenerated. The recovery speed of injuries is increased.)

[Military characteristic: Manic (Once a Naga smells blood, it will enter a manic state, but it will not lose control)]

[I’m the Northwest King of Assassins!]

Three blue-tier skills were obtained.

The most noticeable drawback, the unit’s characteristics, were also significantly improved.

Now he no longer had to worry about the Naga Warriors behaving like unleashed wild dogs.

A unit that could fully obey orders was able to better exert its combat effectiveness.

Next, the River Murlocs were upgraded.

As his starting unit, the Murlocs had made significant contributions in the early battles.

Although they had undergone several scattered enhancements, they had fallen behind the current version.

It was time to give them an upgrade as well.

[River Murloc (Tier 2, 3-star)]

[Unlocked node A-2: Murloc Body (Green Skill —> Blue Skill)] [Requires 600 units of wood, 300 units of clay]

[Unlocking node B-2: Diving (Green Skill — Blue Skill) Consumes 600 units of fiber, 300 units of clay.]

[Unlocked node C-2: Trident (Green Skill -> Blue Skill)] [Requires 600 units of thick iron]

[Unlocked node D-2: Careful (Race characteristic weakened/enhanced)][Requires 1200 units of wood, 1200 units of fiber.]

[Unlocking any node can increase star level or tier.]

Ji Chen looked at the remaining resources. It was enough for the Murloc to unlock all four nodes.

He didn’t hesitate anymore and tapped on it.

“River Murloc (Tier 2, 3-star) has advanced to Shallow Sea Murloc (Tier 3, 3-star).”

“Level cap increased to Level 29.”

Just like the Naga Warriors, the Murlocs’ names had also changed.

It seemed that this also indicated that their next battle location would change from the island to the shallow sea.

[Shallow Sea Murlocs ]

[Level: 7]

[Tier: 3, 3 stars]

[Skill: Murloc Body (blue characteristic, fish scale’s defense increased by 30%, able to avoid a portion of close and long-range attacks)!

Diving (Blue characteristic, can greatly reduce the movement when swimming in the water, and can use the current to increase the swimming speed)

Trident (Blue characteristic, can be used as both a melee weapon and a throwing weapon, has good long-range damage output)

[Military characteristic: Brave (when encountering strong enemies and danger, will still faithfully carry out the lord’s orders) I

The Murlocs could finally be of great use!

The characteristics of the army were greatly enhanced.

Apart from that, the trident could also be thrown, adding a new attack method.

However, he was a bit puzzled.

There was only one trident, so what would happen after throwing it in battle?

He summoned an advanced Shallow Sea Murloc.

The appearance of the Murlocs had also changed. The most noticeable change was the emergence of two tentacles on their faces, giving them a slight resemblance to Eastern dragons.

“Throw the trident and let me see its power.”

Upon hearing the command, the Shallow Sea Murloc raised the trident without hesitation and forcefully threw it.

Crack-

Leaves rustled as they gently descended.

The trident was forcefully thrust into the tree trunk, its tip sinking deep within.

Then, with a flick of the Murloc’s hand,

to Ji Chen’s surprise, the trident began to vibrate and swiftly returned to the Murloc’s grasp.

It flew back automatically?

How astonishing!

Was this really a skill possessed by Murlocs?

With such an ability, fishing would become much easier. Simply cast the trident and watch as it effortlessly returned, fish in tow!

Ahem, just joking.

Having this ability was akin to possessing an inexhaustible quiver of arrows with a bow.

After being enhanced and upgraded, the Murlocs have also reached a ten-star tier, reaching the third tier with 3 stars.

Judging by their increased attack strength, they would easily overpower the Dragon Vein Kobolds.

After two rounds of enhancements and upgrades,

the resources that were acquired not long ago have been completely depleted.

However, it was worth it.

The Naga Warriors and Shallow Sea Murlocs, both at the fifth tier with three stars and third tier with three stars respectively, would likely have no formidable monsters left to challenge them on this island.

Ji Chen also recalled the small stone quarry encountered a few days ago, where a group of stone golems resided.

In the past, he had been helpless against those solid stone creatures in the quarry.

But now, with a third-tier, five-star Naga Warrior in his left hand and a third-tier, three-star Shallow Sea Murloc in his right hand, along with the spellcasting abilities of the Sea Nymphs, dealing with those outdated stone golems would be a breeze.

He decided to pay them a visit and teach them a lesson.

They would soon learn not to underestimate a young man’s determination!

Stone golems, huh?

He would knock their heads off!

The next day,

he marched with his army

towards the exposed stone quarry.

They quickly crossed the jungle and spotted the stone golems lying amidst the piles of rocks.

As they drew nearer, the dormant stone golems awakened..
