199: Chapter 199: The talent "Gift of War" has reached level 28!

[Python Emperors Heavenly Might]!

Xu Qin raised his hand and waved his staff.

Hum!

Centered around the Floating City, within a radius of one hundred meters...

the attack power of all enemy units was directly reduced by 60%,

and at the same time, their defense was also reduced by 50%!

Following that...

[Bone Emperors Might]!

Hum!!!

A dark purple domain directly burst open.

The enemy's attack power and defense power were reduced by another 25%.

At the same time, their movement was also lowered by 30%.

The Centaur cavalry that rushed into the range were instantly covered by the dual domains.

Their attack power was slashed straight to the bottom, and their movement speed was also dropped directly to the minimum.

Xu Qin looked at the Star Spirit lord riding on the silver-maned warhorse,

and said softly:

"Dragon Bone."

"Present."

"Burn it."

"Uh~ Don't burn..."

Roar!!!!

At the bottom of the Floating City,

seventy-eight Bone Dragons opened their huge mouths simultaneously.

Led by Dragon Bone,

seventy-nine shadow dragon breaths volleyed down together.

Boom!!!!!

The silver cavalry torrent

was directly covered head-on by the dark purple dragon breath torrent.

Twenty thousand Iron Hoof Knights,

along with the tier-3 Star Master Xing Tu riding on the silver-maned warhorse...

turned into ashes under the volley of the seventy-eight dragons.

Not even a trace was left behind.

Ding!

[Star Master Xing Tu has fallen!]

[Core building has been destroyed!]

[Battle victory!]

Looking at the golden characters popping up on the panel,

the corners of Xu Qin's mouth twitched involuntarily.

"No, couldn't you wait..."

"Forget it, it's fine, We'll be more careful next time."

[Settling spoils of war...]

[Battle Evaluation: S]

On the command panel, a golden light lit up.

Xu Qin was slightly surprised.

Fighting a tier-3 Star Master and getting an S rank?

The next second, the panel began to spam messages.

[Talent "War Gift" has reached level 28!]

[Spoils multiplier increased: 29]

Following that...

[Kill target: Centaur Warriors × 401,200, ...]

Xu Qin skipped directly and looked at the last line.

[Talent "War Gift Level 28" triggered! All spoils quantity × 29!]

His hands began to tremble.

[Final acquisition: Centaur Clan Bones × 26,332,029, soul energy × 527,800,000]

...

[Triggered "Miracle Treasure"!]

[Generating Undead Relic Box...]

Looking at this string of numbers, Xu Qin's mouth widened in shock.

"Twenty... twenty-six million? Over five hundred million energy?"

He raised his head and looked at the distant emerald-green grassland that now belonged to him.

Then he looked at the panel again.

[Territory area increased: +9,600 square kilometers]

[Current territory "Boundless Domain" total area: 31,876.6 square kilometers]

"Calm down... calm down..."

Xu Qin took deep breaths repeatedly.

That's what he said, but a Dragon King grin was already plastered across his face.

There was no other way,

the harvest after the gift was simply too outrageous.

That time when he fought the giants,

he thought 3.27 million skeletons were already the ceiling.

As a result, the Centaur Clan directly multiplied it by eight.

A 29-times talent multiplier was just that hardcore!

Xu Qin calmed his mood and began to handle serious matters.

He opened the fusion interface of the Resurrection Platform and began to study the recipes.

The Centaur Clan had a total of four troop types,

using them as suicide bombers was somewhat too extravagant.

These troops had the potential to be the main force.

If all four types of skeletons were

fused into a single Stitched Bone Beast...

wouldn't that mean it could Charge, attack from a distance, and heal itself all at once?

Xu Qin dragged the four types of skeletons into the recipe slot.

[Centaur Warriors Bones × 3]

[Centaur Archers Bones × 3]

[Centaur Priests Bones × 3]

[Iron Hoof Knights Bones × 3]

"Let's test one first to see the effect."

The recipe slot immediately lit up with a golden glow,

and the fusion showed as viable.

Xu Qin clicked [Fusion].

Hum!

On the Resurrection Platform,

the dark purple soul fire swallowed the twelve skeletons.

Thirty seconds later, the soul fire dispersed...

and a three-meter-tall Bone Beast stood in the center of the Resurrection Platform.

Its lower body was made of four sturdy horse leg skeletons, its upper body was a humanoid skeleton,

on the outside of its left arm was a curved bone shield,

and its right arm turned into a short bow molded from bones,

with a bow body that was incomparably sharp, usable as a sickle.

Above the spine, a pale green shimmer flashed.

That was the healing power of the priests.

Ding!

[Fusion complete!]

[New troop type born: Iron Hoof-type Stitched Bone Beast]

Xu Qin impatiently opened the troop panel.

[Iron Hoof-type Stitched Bone Beast]

[Quality: Elite (Blue)]

[Attack Power: 2,480 (Physical - Charge / Ranged - Bone Arrow)]

[Defense: 1,560]

[HP: 92,000]

[Movement Speed: Extremely fast]

[Loyalty: 100 / 100 (Eternal Diehard)]

[Morale: None]

[Trait 1: Iron Hoof Charge (Active skill, under high-speed Charge state, initial attack damage +200%, and knocks back the target. Cooldown: 8 seconds.)]

[Trait 2: Mounted Archery Instinct (Passive skill, when performing ranged attacks while moving, hit rate is not reduced. Range: 25 meters.)]

[Trait 3: Spinal Healing (Passive skill, spinal bone thorns continuously release tiny healing waves, restoring 1% of own max HP every 10 seconds. Friendly undead units within a 15-meter radius enjoy this effect simultaneously.)]

[Trait 4: Armored Trample (Passive skill, melee attacks come with an area trampling effect, dealing 50% of attack power as extra damage to enemy units within a 3-meter radius.)]

After reading the panel, Xu Qin laughed out loud directly.

"Perfect!"

The abilities of all four troop types were completely inherited.

Moreover, once ninety-two thousand HP self-destructed, it would be nearly seventy thousand true damage!

Xu Qin couldn't help but laugh out loud again.

"If this thing rushes into a pile of enemy troops and blows up once, everything within a five-meter radius will die."

"The key is that it can even heal itself!"

"It can fight, it can heal, it can Charge, and it can attack from a distance..."

"This troop type is simply too tyrannical!"

Xu Qin looked at the pile of Centaur bones stacked like a mountain in the treasure house.

Twenty-six million of them.

First convert the excess into general bones,

then calculated at 12 fused into one,

it could produce nearly 2.2 million Iron Hoof-type Stitched Bone Beasts.

"Good fellow! Is there any need to hesitate about this? Just do it!"

Xu Qin directly opened the batch fusion mode.

Beep!

A prompt popped up.

[Enable automatic fusion?]

[Estimated output: Iron Hoof-type Stitched Bone Beast × 2,194,335]

[Estimated soul energy consumption: 219,433,500]

"Only two hundred and ten million soul energy... Piece of cake."

"Let's get to work!"

Hum!!!

The Resurrection Platform operated at full capacity.

Dark purple soul fire gushed out from the platform surface,

and the Centaur bones in the treasure house began to consume rapidly.

Xu Qin opened the source crystal essence inventory again, a look of dilemma appearing on his face.

[source crystal essence: 8,472 pieces]

"This is falling a bit too short."

With the current production volume, to fill this gap would take at least four or five days.

However, Xu Qin wasn't in a hurry.

Because even without enhancement, these 2.19 million Bone Beasts,

relying solely on their basic panel stats

and the 690,000 self-destruction damage,

should be able to easily crush everything.

But having said that,

he still sent an order to Tian Ming on the command panel.

"Tian Ming, after cleaning up the battlefield, max out the daily production of source crystal essence for me."

"Farm as much as you can. We have plenty of troops, we can afford a war of attrition!"

"Yes."
