76: Chapter 76 All members +20
Xu Qin saw this and nodded slightly.
He knew that the passive effect of Battle Intent had taken effect.
Attack power temporarily increases by 1% after killing a unit.
Although the Mineral Vein Guardian only counts as one unit, since they are currently in battle, it can naturally stack.
"Fierce." Xu Qin spat out only one word.
Before the second one was fully dead, Chuan Yun's tracking arrow had already been shot.
Precision Volley activated.
Within four seconds, the attack speed of all ranged units skyrocketed by 50%.
Arrows and projectiles poured down like raindrops.
The second one.
The third one.
The fourth one.
None lasted more than three seconds.
In less than a minute.
The eleven Mineral Vein Guardians in the first pit were wiped out from the start of the fight.
[Combat Settlement!]
[Targets Killed: Mineral Vein Guardian × 11]
[Basic Drops: Mineral Vein Guardian Remains × 11]
[Talent 'War Gift Level 10' triggered! All loot quantity × 11!]
[Final Acquisition:]
Mineral Vein Guardian Remains × 121
...
[Combat Rating: B]
Ding!
[Hero 'Tian Ming' level increased! 21 → 22!]
Ding!
[Hero 'Minotaur' level increased! 18 → 19!]
Ding!
[Hero 'Chuan Yun' level increased! 9 → 10!]
Three levels in a row.
But Xu Qin did not pay attention to that; what he was looking at right now was the final settlement.
11 Mineral Vein Guardians really turned into 121 remains!
An infinite loop can be achieved!
"I... am invincible!"
Xu Qin stood on the command panel with his hands in his pockets, watching the Troglodytes begin to chisel the second pit.
He started doing elementary school arithmetic.
Twenty pits, leaving 11 remains in each to resurrect, would turn into 220 units.
After killing them, it would become 2,420 remains.
Leaving 220 to continue planting... ah, no, it's to continue resurrecting.
Ten minutes of rebirth time, plus the time consumed for killing...
About one round every twenty minutes.
About two rounds an hour, which means taking out 4,400.
A guaranteed one hundred thousand legendary-grade universal auxiliary materials per day.
One hundred thousand per day!
The calculation was correct, because his Undead Army...
Does! Not! Rest!
"And this calculation of mine is still conservative..."
Xu Qin looked at the giant Underground Space and began to plan.
"I can completely optimize it into an assembly line operation, controlling the resurrection time of each pit to within 1 minute."
"In that case, as the troops continue to grow stronger, the hourly production capacity can continue to increase."
Xu Qin felt a bit excited at this moment.
He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.
No!
Don't rush to calculate the daily production yet.
Let's finish clearing the twenty pits on hand first.
"Tian Ming!"
"Present."
"Speed it up. Clear all nineteen pits, send the remains up. Then stand by."
"Yes, Master."
Tian Ming began to coordinate.
The Troglodytes were responsible for excavating.
The Minotaur and Chuan Yun began to fight, providing ranged coverage.
Forty minutes later.
Tian Ming reported: "Master, all twenty pits have been cleared."
Xu Qin looked at the quantity of source crystal essence in his inventory and nodded with satisfaction.
"Tian Ming, have the Troglodytes repair the traps, don't dig for now."
"In a while, I want to re-plan the workshop... ah no, our battlefield."
"Yes."
Xu Qin turned and walked towards the Combat Readiness Platform.
"While waiting, I'll max out all troop types first."
He opened the command panel and began to recall all units currently outside.
All scattered units executing reconnaissance and alert missions around the Floating City were to assemble.
"Let's get the existing army to +20 first."
Xu Qin stood on the Combat Readiness Platform, opened the command panel, and studied the troop list.
Skeleton Vulture, 1,900 units.
Skeleton Sand Rat, 2,100 units.
Xu Qin squinted.
"I didn't expect that these two troop types had accumulated so much."
Although these two troops looked inconspicuous, they were Xu Qin's eyes.
Without the underground infiltration of the Sand Rats, he wouldn't even be able to discover the mineral veins, let alone design traps and mark safe paths.
Reconnaissance units, the highest priority, must be maxed out first.
"Vulture, Sand Rat, all return."
The order was issued.
Fifty kilometers away, the Skeleton Vulture formation turned.
The Sand Rat swarm, tens of meters deep underground, also began to retreat.
A few minutes later, the reconnaissance legion returned.
Xu Qin opened the Resurrection Platform interface.
Strengthen, strengthen, strengthen!
Ding! Ding! Ding! ...
[The current batch of troops has reached the daily enhancement limit (+20).]
A total of 800 source crystal essence were consumed.
Xu Qin clicked on the Vulture panel.
[Skeleton Vulture (+20)]
Attack Power: 31 (Physical - Bite/Dive)
Defense: 18
HP: 95/95
Traits: Low-altitude Gliding, Dive Hunting
Reconnaissance Accuracy: S-Grade (Can transmit high-definition 3D terrain images)
Looking at the Sand Rat again.
[Skeleton Sand Rat (+20)]
Attack Power: 24 (Physical - Gnaw/Bite)
Defense: 15
HP: 78/78
Traits: Swift Movement, Sand Evasion, Mineral Vein Perception
Underground Detection Accuracy: A-Grade (Can mark mineral wall thickness, cavity structures, and biological heat sources)
Xu Qin picked up a Sand Rat and examined it in his palm.
This thing used to be so skinny that one finger could flick it away,
But now, not only was its skeleton thicker, but its teeth also shimmered with a faint blue light.
"Little thing."
Xu Qin rubbed the Sand Rat's skull with his thumb,
"Your attack power is 24 now, higher than when I first transmigrated."
The Sand Rat tilted its head, its hollow eye sockets staring at him.
Xu Qin put it down.
"From now on, you'd better not scratch my face..."
Xu Qin turned and gave orders to the two reconnaissance legions.
"Vulture, continue to execute reconnaissance missions within a fifty-kilometer radius. Sand Rat, return to the mineral vein."
Once the order was issued, the two troops dispersed silently.
The Vultures flapped their wings and flew away.
The Sand Rats burrowed into the ground and disappeared.
In less than three minutes, the area map on the command panel began to refresh.
Xu Qin's eyes lit up.
The images transmitted back by the +20 Vultures were completely different from before.
Previously, one could only see blurry surface outlines,
Now, even the stones on the sand dunes could be seen clearly.
And the Sand Rat side was even more exaggerated.
The thickness of the mineral shell could be directly projected onto the panel.
"Beautiful."
Xu Qin satisfactorily closed the reconnaissance view and began to process the remaining troop types.
Undead Sand Jackal, Undead Minotaur, Undead Erosion Beast, Rift Guard, Skeleton Soldier...
For any that weren't +20 yet, he maxed out their enhancements.
The source crystal essence began to drop one by one.
Twenty minutes later.
Ding!
[Insufficient stock of source crystal essence, cannot continue enhancement.]
Xu Qin opened the command panel.
Except for the most numerous Undead Sand Jackals and Minotaurs, which were only enhanced to +6.
All other core troop types were maxed out to +20.
"That's enough." Xu Qin let out a long breath, "Once the next round of source crystal essence comes out, I should be able to finish enhancing all troop types. By then, I'll have the resources to enhance the Earth Spirits and the Orc heroes."
Just at this moment, Tian Ming's voice came from the command panel.
"Master, the underground tunnels have all been repaired."
"Good." Xu Qin walked out of the Combat Readiness Platform, facing the direction of the Underground Space.
"Tian Ming, bring all the Troglodytes here."
"Yes."
