Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead
Chapter 1419 - 989, Zhuo Yang, the Undead Mage

Silver Wing City, Mage Association.

Li Rong knocked gently on the door and, upon hearing a response from inside, pushed the door open and entered.

The Mage Association President Grigorya was sitting at the desk, leafing through an old book.

"Didn't you take on a task? Why have you come back?" Grigorya asked curiously.

Li Rong said with a smile, "Didn't you say that the task was too much of a waste of time? So I didn't go."

"Didn't go?" Grigorya grew even more curious.

To obtain that Blueprint of the barracks, Li Rong had made quite a bit of groundwork and effort.

While the task couldn't possibly be simple, it didn't fit her character to suddenly give up.

"Yes, I'm not going," Li Rong said as she sat down opposite and took out a long brocade box, "Teacher, this is for you."

The brocade box opened, revealing inside an old-fashioned wooden Magic Wand.

Grigorya glanced at it and immediately recognized it as an orange Magic Wand.

A look of surprise flickered through her eyes.

Although she had many items in her collection, she only had one orange Magic Wand.

"Where did you get this?" Grigorya picked it up to examine.

"I know you like collecting, so I asked a friend for it," Li Rong explained.

Grigorya's eyebrows furrowed.

An orange Magic Wand, an heirloom object, could be obtained from a friend?

That's quite some clout.

But she immediately had a thought and said, "Was it from Fang Hao?"

"Ah, indeed, it was him."

Grigorya nodded, placed the Magic Wand on the desk, and thought for a moment.

Then she continued, "How is the Mage Association in Lyss City coming along with the construction?"

"I've heard it's already completed."

"Arrange a trip, we'll go take a look in the next few days."

"Oh, alright, Teacher."

…

[Flame-sun Arcane Tower: 3200 Ironized Wood, 2300 Ironized Wood, ..., 5 Red Flame Essence, 3 Essence of Magic.]

(Description: Scholars within the tower are studying and exploring the secrets of Magic.)

Indeed, it's an orange Mage class Blueprint.

The power of Spells is great, and Mage-type buildings are quite rare.

If there are enough of them, a barrage of Magic can provide even more dense coverage than cannon fire, and also carries corresponding elemental damage.

It could be said that they are a type of troop that can deal highly efficient damage on the battlefield.

But the weaknesses of Mages are also quite obvious.

For example, they have slow Movement Speed, require time to gather energy for casting, have low Defense and poor maneuverability.

Once a group of Mages gets surprised by a Cavalry charge or targeted by a Dragon, it becomes very dangerous.

After a few charges, they're either dead or on the run.

Fang Hao first cataloged the Blueprint, then shared a copy with Li Rong.

He then looked over the previously cataloged Mage class Blueprints.

After filtering, three types of Mage Barracks Blueprints that are quite favorable for himself were selected.

The first one, the Undead Mage Tower, can recruit fifth-rank Undead Mages.

The second one, the Witchcraft Black Tower, recruits ninth-rank Witchcraft Witches, which are a species of Dark Elf Magic Troops.

The last is the newly acquired Flame-sun Arcane Tower.

After some consideration, he felt it was also time to start producing Mage Troops.

First, the Undead Mage Tower and the Witchcraft Black Tower were synthesized.

A new Mage Barracks construction was formed, named the Undead Witchcraft Tower.

It can recruit the eighth-rank unit, the Undead Witch.

He opened up another synthesis blueprint.

He selected the Undead Witchcraft Tower and the Flame-sun Arcane Tower.

Both blueprints appeared, with a blank blueprint in between again.

Undead Witch (Eighth-rank) →[Unnamed]← Bright-sun Mage (Tenth-rank)

[Faction: Divine Realm] →[Unconfirmed]← [Faction: Humans]

[Racial Traits: Undead, Hollow Skeleton, Weakness to Light, Dark Witchcraft.] →[Unconfirmed (up to five items)]← [Racial Traits: Living creatures, Learning, Innate Scholar, Bright-sun Fire, Arcane Craving.]

[Skills: Magic Missile, Toxic Flying Knives, Blood Plague, Demon Art, Witchcraft Spread.] →[Unconfirmed (up to six items)]← [Skills: Magic Missile, Fireball, Fire Arrows, Fire Python Guard, Meteor Strike, Spellcaster.]

[Innate Skills: Advanced Spell Mastery, Advanced Witchcraft Mastery, Advanced Wand Mastery, Intermediate Casting Mastery, Intermediate Short Sword Mastery.] →[Unconfirmed]← [Advanced Spell Mastery, Advanced Casting Mastery, Advanced Fire Elemental Sensing, Advanced Wand Mastery, Intermediate Short Sword Mastery.]

Mages are actually not something Fang Hao has had much contact with.

However, it is clear that the Bright-sun Mage possesses skills all inclined towards Fire Elemental Magic.

Relatively speaking, Fire Elemental damage is also higher, and the accompanying effects can cause burning and spreading.

With earlier experiences in synthesis,

Fang Hao simply clicked directly. He had plenty of synthesis blueprints on hand; if it didn't work, he would just try synthesizing several more times.

As for the name, he directly filled in[Bright-sun Undead Mage]

[Faction: Divine Realm]

[Traits: Undead, Hollow Skeleton, Weakness to Light, Bright-sun Fire, Arcane Craving.]

[Skills: Magic Missile, Fire Python Guard, Meteor Strike, Spellcaster, Demon Art, Witchcraft Spread.]

[Innate Skills: Advanced Spell Mastery, Advanced Casting Mastery, Advanced Witchcraft Mastery, Advanced Fire Elemental Sensing, Advanced Wand Mastery, Intermediate Short Sword Mastery.]

[Bright-sun Fire]: This unit has a high level of proficiency in fire arcane, +20% effect on Fire Elemental Magic Skills, -15% skill cost, and recovers 2% Magic Power every second while casting under the sun.

[Arcane Craving]: Inflicts additional 15% magic damage to enemies beyond 500 meters with spells.

[Fire Python Guard]: Summons a Multi-Headed Fire Python to attack surrounding enemies with flames.

[Meteor Strike]: Summons a giant Fireball from the sky to bombard the target area, causing fire damage.

[Spellcaster]: An accomplished scholar of spells, +20% casting speed, +25% skill effect.

[Demon Art]: Causes the target unit to enter a state of Chaos, with a chance of cognitive disorder, indiscriminately attacking any unit.

[Witchcraft Spread]: Summons a large-scale miasma, targets within the range will be affected by witchcraft.

Traits and skills are relatively easy to choose.

Just pick the ones that can enhance the killing power of the troop.

The more powerful the skill, the stronger the enhancement, the more likely to be chosen.

Among the traits, what satisfied Fang Hao the most were [Bright-sun Fire] and [Arcane Craving].

Both increased the damage of the skills, especially 'Bright-sun Fire,' which enhanced the magic effects and reduced skill costs. While casting under the sun, it also restored Magic Power.

Imagine a group of Undead Mages, not standing in a place filled with dark energy, but rather casting spells under the sun.

This kind of contrast, it's quite interesting indeed.

The selection of skills for later becomes even simpler.

They are all offensive skills that enhance attributes.

The last two are Demon Arts, but they are also offensive skills.

They can allow this Mage troop to significantly increase combat attack power on the battlefield.

Upon completing the selection, a light flashes across the Blueprint.

[Troop Synthesis Completed: Elite Sun Undead Mage (Tier 10)]

[A new barracks building has been created.]

[Blueprint Unlocked: Elite Sun Undead Tower Construction Blueprint.]

A system notification appears, confirming the successful synthesis of the blueprint.

Moreover, the troop's tier remains at ten.

It seems my luck is not bad.

...

With the blueprint finished, Fang Hao plans to head to the barracks and start the construction.

Just as he is about to get up, he sees the Dragon Queen coming out of the back courtyard.

She's wearing an off-white long dress, with droplets hung on her hair, and the dress clinging to her body, emphasizing an exaggerated waist-to-hip ratio.

The Dragon Queen belongs to an extremely voluptuous type, even more exaggerated than Rebecca's figure.

And with that noble and aloof expression, it lends her the aura of an absolutely stunning queen.

"Keep staring and I'll gouge out your eyes," the Dragon Queen says coldly.

Fang Hao withdraws his gaze and responds, "Took a bath, huh!"

"Hmm!" The Dragon Queen sits down next to him and continues, "How's it going in the Undead Desert?"

"Just got the news, we've captured the first city, and we'll continue to attack downwards," Fang Hao shares the news he has received with her.

The Dragon Queen nods and reminds him, "Soon, they'll attract the attention of the Undead. Then the Demigods and Deities will intervene."

"Hmm, that's when we'll have to rely on us," Fang Hao agrees.

"Don't provoke anyone else during this time," the Dragon Queen warns.

Two upper-tier deities, four lower-tier deities.

In fact, I do have some confidence.

I'm just worried that if we don't handle things well here, we'll attract new enemies.

"I know." Fang Hao stands up and says, "I'm heading out to check on the newly recruited troops. Do you want to come take a look?"

"Let's go."

Fang Hao walks over, wraps his arm around her soft waist, and heads outside.

The Dragon Queen glares at him annoyed.

Without resisting, she only pushes his arm away when they reach the entrance of the Lord's Mansion and strides out briskly.

After the Dragon Queen came here, she seemed to have abandoned her habit of hibernation. After becoming a deity, she hardly ever sleeps.

Reading books, drinking wine, chatting, playing chess.

She adapts to life here better than anyone else.

...

They make their way to the barracks area.

The main city's barracks have been rearranged.

Some of the lower-tier barracks buildings, being unused, were dismantled to free up space.

To make room for some new constructions.

Fang Hao arrives at an open space, retrieves the stored blueprint, and starts building.

An orange light illuminates, outlining the contours of what seems to be a tower-like structure.

The two sit down and chat for a while.

The building gradually takes shape.

[Elite Sun Undead Tower (Orange)]

[Type: Barracks Building]

[Recruitment: Elite Sun Undead Mages]

[Elite Sun Undead Mage: Tiger Talisman 10, Death Trace 7, Combat Trace 5, Star Silver 3, Solar Essence 1.]

(Description: The flame and blazing sun are the hallmarks of the Elite Sun Tower, where scholars therein specialize in studying magic from the sky and blazing sun.)

The recruitment materials are manageable.

So he sets the number to 1 and confirms the recruitment.

[Hundredfold Amplification Triggered, recruited 101 Elite Sun Undead Mages.]

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!

Amidst flashes of light, the Skeleton Mages fill the open space around them.

They have slender frames, not much different from human skeletons.

However, there's a ring on their foreheads, resembling a burning halo.

Or rather, it's meant to signify the sun.

Fang Hao looks back at the Dragon Queen and feels there's something in common between her and this troop type.

Both relate to the sun.

"Is this a Mage?" The Dragon Queen is also curious about the appearance of this troop.

Fang Hao nods, and while directing the troops to move out, introduces them: "Yes, they are called Elite Sun Undead Mages, and their skills are all fire elemental."

"Undead Mages using fire elemental skills?"

"What do you think? Creative, right? It's my idea."

The two continue walking together to equip these Mages.

...

Bloody Mountain Range.

The Troll main city, North Guard City.

In the towering Temple, a huge Troll with large teeth sits enthroned.

Below him, the leader 'Stella' is kneeling, followed by many high-ranking Trolls also on their knees.

The Troll on the throne sweeps his gaze over them one by one.

His half-closed eyes flash with cold, bloodthirsty ruthlessness, as he asks in a cold voice, "Why is there a human statue in the most honored place of the Troll's Temple?"

The overwhelming pressure causes Stella, kneeling at the front, to tremble incessantly.

Anxiously and with trepidation, she speaks: "Great Slaughter God, this is the statue of our territory's lord."

"Oh? A mortal realm lord?" The Slaughter God shows interest.
