Du You knew that letting the two sisters fight in the Undead World was one thing, but living together with the undead for a long ti was quite another ordeal. The Demonic Fla Skeletons of the past were not so bad; at least, they looked only like a skeleton in shape.
But here, the undead were different. Bones might just be a bit frightening, but zombies were indeed sowhat nauseating.
Perhaps the undead did not mind, but they, the normal people, could sll that stench coming from the zombie hordes. As Professionals, their sense of sll could not be numbed, and so the odor was ever-present.
Even when wearing special masks, it was hard to shake off the psychological disgust.
"Really, these last two aren’t zombie constructions, they’re all clean bone architecture." Du You muttered to himself while watching the skeleton laborers incessantly building.
The last two structures, having started later, were a bit slower in construction, but now they were nearing completion. It wasn’t a long wait before the final two buildings were finished, one by one. First ca the Skeleton Assembly Workshop.
Judging from the na, it seed to have so relation to technology. And indeed, it seed to be related to the technical aspects.
Skeleton Assembly Workshop (Tier 5):
Skeleton Ballistas, Level 45: 300 per month, full price 200 Crystal Coins each
Skeleton Worms, Level 40: 500 per month, full price 50 Crystal Coins each
Skeleton Crushing Machines, Level 48: 200 per month, full price 250 Crystal Coins each
Seeing the specific panel of the Skeleton Assembly Workshop, Du You couldn’t help but smile. "I’ve really struck gold this ti." No doubt, the blueprints this ti were of very high quality—a tier 5 structure that directly ca with two tier 5 branches of the ard forces.
Moreover, these weren’t just any branches; they were well-suited for warfare.
Du You quickly made so of them and then began to analyze them. First was the skeleton ballista. This thing was different from ordinary ballistas because it was an undead being itself.
A large carriage, its head an unknown skull, with ballista bolts extending from its mouth. Laden with a heavy aura of death, the bolts were automatically aid and fired.
The terrifying power reminded Du You of the tier 5 magic crystal canons in his possession. In terms of destructive power and range, it seed the bolts were not as powerful as the magic crystal canons, but their range and penetration were superior.
"The only problem now is the shortage of ammunition." The skeleton ballista could only produce its bolts, and it didn’t carry many. While the magic crystal canon only needed enough magic crystals, overall, it could be said each had its rits. Perhaps, the device could be mounted on the city walls and integrated into the structure.
No sooner thought than done, after Du You integrated the skeleton ballistas into the city walls, the walls acquired a rotating platform that could freely adjust its angle. "Indeed, just as I’d thought, the increase in combat power is not insignificant."
Perhaps the attack power of the skeleton ballistas had not increased, but the amount of ammunition had significantly. Whether it was the speed of bolt production or the number stored, it was beyond comparison with before. Ammunition was essentially the ballista’s combat power, and wasn’t this an increase in combat capability? Du You nodded slightly, very pleased with this developnt.
Next up were the Skeleton Worms. Although they were only at the peak of Tier Four, they were not a combat branch of the ard forces.
After being crafted, a very large worm appeared before Du You, its surface covered with a semi-transparent mbrane, within which one could see bones arranged in a very special manner.
As it moved forward, it wriggled its segnts just like a worm, but its speed was not slow.
This Skeleton Worm wasn’t ant for combat but for transportation. Its internal space was almost entirely empty, which could be used to transport troops or other items. The mbrane might seem fragile, but in reality, it boasted an exceptionally strong defense.
Even ordinary Tier Five powerhouses might not be able to break it with a single hit. In case of danger, the Skeleton Worm could burrow underground to avoid it, or even proceed beneath the surface. Its speed would be affected while moving underground, however.
It was practically an alternative multifunctional troop transport, but Du You was too lazy to think about its specific uses. After all, in Du You’s eyes, this kind of Undead unit was essentially cannon fodder for consumption.
The last branch of the ard forces was the Skeleton Crushing Machine. When it appeared, Du You looked at it curiously. "Isn’t this sothing like a siege engine? But that drill sure is huge."
Indeed, what was in front of Du You looked like a siege engine, with a huge carriage fronted by an extrely sharp and continuously rotating drill. This device seed to be an ace for besieging fortifications.
However, Du You had a thought, and the front of the Skeleton Crushing Machine transford. The drill split apart into more than a dozen smaller drills, which then began to spin at high speed.
This was indeed a crushing machine. Anything that ca into contact with it would be directly pulverized. And this siege engine was not truly a siege engine; it was a form of Undead, moving quickly and with great agility. As a Tier Five Undead, it had no problems flying short distances in the sky, and while it might only have one move, that one move was enough.
This destructive power, if used on a battlefield, would be a colossal at grinder. For sieging, Du You was certain that even Tier Five walls likely wouldn’t withstand many strikes; it was that terrifying.
"It’s a pity, all these are specialized branches that require a smart commander to direct their power effectively. If they rush forward mindlessly, it’s simply a waste of these forces."
This was the headache for Du You, as although his territory had the ability to increase intelligence, none of the Undead under his command were smart. Oh well, wait and see, perhaps once his territory reached Tier Six, such intelligent Undead would erge.
The final building was also completed at this ti: the White Bone Elephant Mausoleum.
White Bone Elephant Mausoleum (Tier Five):
White Bone Giant Elephant, Level 50: 300 per month, full price 400 Crystal Coins each
White Bone Giant Elephants were Tier Five creatures at full maturity, with gigantic skeletal structures forming large elephants, their tusks serving as the sharpest of weapons. Strong and fiercely shaped.
In direct combat, even the powerful Half-Body Zombies weren’t a match for a White Bone Giant Elephant. In terms of strength, the Half-Body Zombie, even as a Zombie, was completely overpowered by the White Bone Giant Elephant – an undoubtedly elite unit.
The price was not high, and among soldiers of the sa level, its combat abilities were probably second to none.
"It’s just a sha it doesn’t have an Attribute for mounts. Otherwise, there might have been a chance to develop cavalry. But it still can perform certain transportation functions." Du You looked at the giant cavity inside the elephant’s ribcage; with so modifications, it could certainly carry quite a lot.
