Lion Skeleton Knight Richardson comes from the Boneyard.
He was a strong man who died in Azshara's support battle when the blood-burning demons invaded.
The level when joining the territory is as high as LV55.
As the former deputy leader of the Silver Lion Knights, his strength is still strong after becoming an undead.
If Zong Shen hadn't obtained the relevant token by chance, there would have been a fierce fight when he first bumped into Richardson.
At that time, it was definitely an enemy for novices.
Later, it was conquered by Zong Shen and became a powerful hero under his command.
Possessing [Qualification: Epic], a strength close to the legendary low-level.
Zong Shen also gave him a piece of [Dread Knight Armor] with radiant grade 2 quality, allowing him to officially enter the legend.
Paired with his own powerful skills, his combat prowess is impressive.
It's just that it can't compete with those ancient powerful high-level legends.
For example, Beast King Rexxar, Demon Hunter Feronas, etc., but they are also much stronger than ordinary low-level legends.
This is because it has high racial talent.
Richardson is not a simple undead soul.
In addition to the main reason for its birth, there are various chances and coincidences.
Among many factors, the most important is actually its firm will.
Because of this, there are three subcategories within its racial classification.
[Race: Undead/Skeleton/Immortal Knight Will]
Among them, the [Immortal Knight's Will] is its own characteristic and the key to its strength.
After briefly reviewing Richardson's related talents and abilities in his mind, Zong Shen understood that he was the best candidate to serve as the commander of the undead.
In this regard, even Gu Tian, who has a special background, cannot compare with him.
If he is strengthened by the [Second Demonic Heart], Richardson can directly go one step further.
This will help accelerate the formation of the undead army in the territory.
The reason why Zong Shen did not give up on developing the undead army was not only because of the advantages of the undead, but also to prepare for the resurgence of the undead kingdom.
Since he already knew that there had been several large undead kingdoms and forces in the Endless Continent, he must be prepared for this.
Looking back at past cases, it is not difficult to see the various heritages of the Endless Continent. Whether it is ruins, powerful banned existences, or various silent civilizations, it is very likely that they will one day be revived.
Zong Shen felt the presence of [Demon Bone General] when he broke into the Akaru Holy Light Church and used [Tracing of All Things - Destruction] to take it away.
And through information insight, we discovered some signs of the resurgence of undead forces.
Since then, the plan to cultivate the undead army, which had been somewhat dormant, was given renewed attention by him.
That's why after he excavated most of the remains of the Bone Burial Ground, he ordered the Bone Burial Ground and all the related transformation buildings left by the undead and blood-burning demons to be isolated independently.
That was the first undead base he prepared for his territory.
There is absolutely no problem with this direction, and it is worth investing his efforts and resources in this direction.
Therefore, strengthening the [Second Demonic Heart] on Richardson is also in line with the future interests of this plan.
After all, his original ambition was to become an inclusive king of all races.
All ethnic groups and all forces were brought under his control, breaking away from the restrictive framework of the human race.
Thinking of this, he called out to the door.
"Ella, Heya."
When his voice fell, the study door was gently pushed open.
Two slim figures stepped in.
It has been a while since they joined the territory. Zong Shen initially arranged for them to join the archer unit as mid-level officers.
This move is not only to allow them to adapt to life, but also to make full use of their talents.
Both of them are elites of Elf Eyes and were born in Silver Moon Forest.
All of them are qualified elf archers and have learned complete elf archery techniques.
When it comes to archery, elves obviously have an advantage over humans.
There is absolutely no problem with Zong Shen's arrangement, and it can eliminate the gap between the two women's territory as much as possible.
However, just before this expedition to the giant city of Dagalisini.
Ella and Hera approached Zong Shen at that time and made a request.
That is to follow him and become his personal maid.
A strong man is surrounded by those who serve him.
It's just that Zong Shen was pragmatic and had never considered personal maids or attendants before.
When he goes out, he either goes alone or brings with him a strong person who can support him in the battle.
Compared with the high-end combat power in the territory, the strength of the two women who barely reached the sixth level was obviously not enough for them to assist Zong Shen in fighting.
However, considering the promise he made when wooing the two girls, Zong Shen still agreed to this small request.
Usually, the second daughter will also serve as her communications officer and be responsible for handling some errands.
When you go out, you will serve as a maid and build a rest camp.
At this time, Ella and Heya had already changed their outfits. They each wore a space bracelet and no longer wore the heroic ranger hunting clothes.
She is wearing a maid dress with a distinctive cut.
The skirt at the end is very short and is located at the position of two fists above the knees.
This size can well show off those white thighs that are longer than life.
Wearing maid hairbands on their heads, they restrained their long hair of different colors.
"grown ups."
After entering the study, the two women bowed and saluted.
They completely accepted their identity as maids and devoted themselves wholeheartedly to their new roles.
Perhaps the two women had other demands, so they changed their original intentions and let go of their past prejudices and arrogance.
You must know that when Zong Shen met them in the giant city of Lentax, it happened to be the time when the fight between the local Elf Eyes and Count Rice was at its most intense.
Ethnic conflicts intensified, making the elves in the city almost regard humans as enemies.
The two girls were relatively restrained at the time, but when they were suddenly taken in by Zong Shen, they had some ideas in their minds that were difficult to change.
Later, Zong Shen showed extraordinary strength, which made the two girls gradually change their minds.
No matter what their thoughts are, Zong Shen will naturally not refuse such a small request, and it is indeed a lot more convenient to have two personal maids by his side.
Anyway, before this expedition, they had already dedicated themselves to Zong Shen.
In this way, there will be no more barriers between them.
Since they don't want to stay in the territory, it's better to stay with them.
Zong Shen gave gentle instructions without looking at the two girls' graceful figures for too long.
"Contact Richardson and ask him to come immediately."
Ella nodded immediately, her consciousness immersed in the [Spiritual Virtual Network].
There are logistics heroes in the territory who take turns stationed in the virtual network.
As early as yesterday, before the opening of the Demon Abyss Dungeon, a sub-tower of the [Thousand Kilometer Level Directional Teleportation Tower (orange)] was built in the giant city of Dagalisini.
The main tower of this thing is located in the territory.
Up to 10 directional sub-towers can be built within a range of 9999 kilometers with the main tower as the center.
The main tower will open a persistent portal.
It just so happens that the straight-line distance between the giant city of Galisni and the territory does not exceed 10,000 kilometers.
In order to speed up the overall planning efficiency and promote the integration of the giant city and the territory, the transmission problem was the first to be solved.
In addition to directional teleportation towers, the territory also reserves [Thousand-kilometer teleportation array construction diagram (gold)], which can anchor teleportation nodes within 10,000 kilometers at any time.
The efficiency of the teleportation array is not as high as the teleportation gate, but the advantage is that it can be constructed repeatedly.
The premise is expensive materials.
The cost of teleportation magic array has always been the highest among magic arrays of the same level.
The same goes for future maintenance.
This expenditure is very necessary, the Endless Continent is simply too big.
By flying, even if the speed exceeds Mach 5, it will take a lot of time to fly between cities. Unlike the teleportation array, it will go by in a flash.
For Zong Shen, the teleportation array still cannot fully meet his expectations and requirements.
In the future, we have to find ways to find a more convenient way to move in space.
Richardson should be here soon after getting the news.
Zong Shen simply sat cross-legged and asked Ella and Heya to prepare some snacks for him.
Seeing the two girls leaving and going to the kitchen of the mansion, he looked at the next item.
It was a sapling as black as ink.
The length is less than half a meter, and the branches and leaves are sparse.
The veins on those leaves are clearly visible.
The aura of the abyss is very strong, but the vitality is extremely weak.
He looked a little wilted.
The roots of the tree were wrapped in cloth that looked like flesh and blood.
After Zong Shen took it out, there were still soil particles underneath that were shaken off.
As the dirt falls, it turns into black smoke and quickly dissipates.
After a moment of observation, Zong Shen put the sapling back into the storage compartment.
Its state in the main material world is not good, and its vitality dissipates very quickly.
The tree spirits of the abyss are different from the traditional tree spirits.
It is not difficult to find this through simple observation.
Information related to the saplings was also refreshed in his mind.
【Abyss Demon Sapling】
[Quality: Shining Level 1]
[Can only be planted in abyss environment]
[The juvenile stage takes 300 years, the growth stage takes 1,200 years, and the mature stage takes 5,000 years]
[After reaching the maturity stage, the Abyss Demonic Tree will activate its autonomous consciousness and possess 1,200 tree-climbing vines. Each vine can extend for thirty kilometers and has considerable combat power. The main trunk can reach a maximum height of 10,000 meters. After maturity, every 120
Twelve high-quality abyss magic fruits can be produced every year. For abyss creatures, this fruit has a strong replenishing effect]
[After the Abyss Demonic Tree is formed, if it is combined with [Abyss Demonic Spring], [Abyss Earth Vein], [Abyss Demonic Fire] and other strange objects or corresponding buildings, the abyssal terrain can be initially constructed, which can be used to cultivate abyssal species and make
Abyssal creatures within the range gain buffs]
[Different effects can be unlocked at different growth stages, details can be viewed after planting]
…
Zong Shen had a lot of tree spirit seedlings and seeds on hand.
The higher the level of tree spirit, the longer the growth cycle.
This is the law.
Elf-type tree spirit seedlings and seeds can greatly shorten the growth period through unique vitality cultivation and rare items.
But those methods are obviously not suitable for saplings of the abyss lineage.
Even the saplings of this [Abyss Demonic Tree] have the quality of the first level of the Shining Light Level. When they grow to maturity, they can reach at least the Demigod Level.
But it takes 300 years to reach infancy.
Including the time required for growth and maturity, it would take at least 6,500 years to cultivate a complete Abyss Demonic Tree.
This is still a guarantee.
Because high-level tree spirits are similar to giant dragons, when their lifespan reaches a certain stage, they will enter the "life-nurturing" stage.
The so-called life-saving is to find ways to make them live longer.
The longer you live, the stronger you become.
Normally, the upper limit of the life span of tree spirits is much longer than that of dragons.
Giant dragons that have not yet returned to their ancestors usually live only a few thousand years, which is the result of not many fights.
Under this premise, if you are over 800 years old, you are an ancient dragon.
In fact, it is difficult for many giant dragons to live beyond 800 years old.
Although dragons are a superior species, they often fight with each other.
And during the long growth period, they will also be hunted by other species.
Ancient dragons that are more than a few thousand years old usually have the chance to return to their ancestors or extend their lifespan.
However, if one's strength can continue to break through to demigod level, then one can break through the shackles and have a lifespan comparable to that of a starry sky immortal species.
In comparison, tree spirits are easier to maintain.
At least this is the case for tree spirits in the material world.
In many wild places in the Endless Continent, as well as in various deep mountains and old forests, there are many super powerful tree spirits who have lived for tens of thousands of years.
The world environment is suitable, and as long as it is not disturbed, most places can become fertile ground for the growth of tree spirits.
It's a pity that [Abyss Demonic Tree] is not a native species.
It is naturally rejected by the environment of the Endless Continent, unless it is a place with a strong abyss.
For example, certain environments fit the forbidden areas of the abyss, or related demiplanes.
All in all, it was not easy for Zong Shen to cultivate this sapling.
First you have to find a suitable environment.
Then we have to find ways to shorten its growth cycle so that it can quickly acquire strong combat power and practical value. It just so happens that Zong Shen is also considering cultivating a strong group of abyssal lineage.
Reserve it first and then talk about it.
Storing it in the storage compartment will temporarily stop worrying that the sapling will wither.
The state in the storage compartment is constant and is most suitable for storing related items.
In addition, saplings can be stored in the [Demon Abyss Special Treasure Box].
The empty box after taking the rewards is also a good abyss container.
Shaking his head, he put the matter of [Abyss Demon Sapling] aside for now.
Immediately, he took out a sharp blade that was curved like a snake.
This sharp blade belongs to the category of short swords.
The blade is dim purple, and the blade is dignified black.
It doesn't feel heavy in the hand, but has a lightness to it.
Zong Shen waved his hand casually, and black lines appeared in the space where the blade passed in front of him.
It comes with a certain space cutting effect.
But it's not nearly as powerful as [Dagger of the Sky (Special)].
As a dazzling piece of equipment, it is extremely outstanding to be able to perform like this.
No matter what kind of weapon it is, as long as it has some space-cutting effect, its power will not be much different, and it may also have the effect of breaking the barrier or breaking the shield.
In addition, when it passed in front of him, Zong Shen could still feel the faint fluctuation of his soul.
It proves that this thing also has a killing effect on the soul.
Regardless of its attribute values, these two characteristics alone can make it a top-quality weapon among the 2nd level weapons of the Shining Level!
