Chapter 281: The Divine Gate
In fact, Jenn had already thought of a way to solve the shortage of troops, and now the only one of his six attributes that was still vacant was "Sacred", and as long as the combat units of the "Sacred" attribute were summoned, then it would be enough to resist the attack of the Shining Gold Empire. In the entire dungeon system, "sacred" and "dark" are the two most powerful units, look at the golden city protected by the "cultists" who now occupy the position of "dark", it has completely become a dead city with no return, according to Sofina's previous report, before this, a total of dozens of well-equipped, with considerable strength of the adventurer team entered the golden city to find out, but in the end they all fell under the powerful enchantment of the "cultists", no exception.
However, when it comes to summoning "sacred" combat units, Jenn doesn't really want to summon a being like "cultists". The "Cultist" is powerful, but it is a fixed unit of enchantment attributes, and it can only play its greatest role when it is fixed in one place, but it cannot move flexibly. And this time, Jenn needs a strong army, both in appearance and in terms of strength itself.
However, such a combat unit must have consumed a lot, so Enoa asked Jenn to "make up his mind", after all, this is not a trivial matter.
Now in the dungeon system, the "Knights in Disguise" as the core unit, it costs 4,000 resources per month to maintain. The next highest is the "Cultist", after a series of upgrades, its current consumption is 2500 resources per month, which is not a small number. "Alien" is a model of more raw and less eating, and only needs to consume 1,900 resources per month. Alice, on the other hand, requires 1200 resources. After all, they are not combat units, and they are really unsatisfactory in many ways. As for the "banshee......... That's a fraction. There is no point in maintaining a mere 15 points of resources.
In terms of hero units, "Enoa", as a golden elite, needs to consume 800 resources. "Patilina" is 1500 points, "Agatha" is 900 points, and "Sofina" is 500 points. "Bix", "Verna", and "Elise" are not included in the consumption due to the fact that they are native creatures and are not summoned hero units.
This means that Jenn's dungeon consumes a total of more than 10,000 points of various resources every month, which is not a small amount. Although Jenn is already rich after looting the treasure of the city from the gray dwarves and dark elves, the problem is that the dungeons also need to break even or even have a surplus to maintain the consumption. It's like a robber can of course grab a few million from a bank in one go and squander it, but this is not the way to stabilize after all. Spending 10,000 today and 100,000 tomorrow is not enough even if you give you the world's money.
Originally, Jenn's dungeon was not very profitable, and it was almost always in a state of loss before. Thankfully, the wealth he had stolen from the Dark Regions was sufficient to sustain so many combat units. It was after Elise researched the [Goblin Crafting Technique] and summoned [Agatha], a four-star executive, that Jenn's dungeon barely managed to break even, with about 30,000 resources credited to the account every month, and finally corrected the dazzling negative income that Jenn always looked at in the system.
But now, if you want to summon combat units with the "Hallow attribute", it means that you have to strengthen them both qualitatively and quantitatively, so that the cost will definitely not be less. According to Jenn's estimate, if he were to summon enough "sacred" combat units. At least 3,000 points are needed every month, and if he wants to reach his ideal state, I'm afraid 5,000 points of resources can't stop it.
Not only that, but unlike other combat units. "Darkness" and "sacredness" are two of the most religious attributes, and unlike the others, they may be weird. But you can't at least guess which side it belongs to. But "dark" and "sacred" are different. Now Jenn only hoped that he would not summon a group of angels, although in the "holy" attribute. The Angel is the most coveted top-level combat unit for players. But Jenn didn't want to get himself in such a big problem, because in the Klein Continent. All angels are "registered" on it, which means that as soon as a group of angels appear in front of the world, they will immediately be recognized as belonging to which god they belong to. And if these angels come from unknown sources, then it will be a big problem. Jenn didn't want to put himself in for the sake of victory over the Shining Gold Empire, and if that was the case, then he would rather give up Passus and find a new piece of land.
"So, master, what's your ideal best summoning unit?"
Following Jenn's side, Enoa blinked curiously and looked at the Dark Sanctuary in front of her—of course, this was not the summoning temple in the dungeon of the Dark Realms, but the second building that Jenn had rebuilt in his "manor". After all, the Dark Realm is still a long way from Passus, and it is impossible for Jenn to go back to the Dark Realm through the guò portal every time, summon it, and then bring it back. What's more, what was summoned this time was a species of divine attributes, and even if there was any movement, it would not be considered as summoning demons and monsters, so Jenn was not very worried.
"If I could, I would choose a unicorn of light or a silver griffon......... Although neither of these two are the strongest in terms of combat effectiveness, the storage zài of the holy beast level is also good. ”
Hearing Enoa's words, Jenn thought for a moment before speaking, but soon, he shrugged his shoulders.
"But that's just talk, only God knows what can be summoned."
As he spoke, Jenn's men didn't stop. First, as with summoning the "Dark" attribute, put all [Ore] and [Mercury] into 999, and then modify the input of gems and crystals to [666] and [444] according to the even number principle. However, in the end, Jenn thought about it and changed the crystal representing the amount of food to [333]. The things summoned by this hybrid trait will not be particularly pure, and perhaps not very strong, but for Jenn. Now it's important not to be seen, as for the Shining Gold Empire, it's just incidental -- otherwise why would he bring Bix out of the Shadows and let her work here?
In fact, Jenn expects the same thing. In the "Holy" attribute, combat units are divided into four levels by the player: "Holy Son", "Holy Beast", "Holy Messenger", and "Holy Spirit". Among them, the "Holy Sons" are the so-called Holy Knights, who were originally human beings and became powerful beings because they received the blessings of the gods. However, in this attribute, they are considered to be the weaker one.
And then there is the "holy beast", in fact, the strength of the "holy beast" is not easy to distinguish, it's like if you take the red bird against the green dragon, maybe it's half a catty, but I want to put a candle dragon out here, it is estimated that they are all kneeling. The benefits of the "Holy Beast" are like what Jenn said before, it looks lofty. But it's not easy to see who you really are. For Jenn, who now needs to confuse the public, the Holy Beast is obviously the best choice.
And the "Holy Messenger" is naturally an army of angels, which is also the dream of many players and the last thing Jenn wants to summon at the moment. No matter what kind of angel it is, as long as it is an army of angels, after being summoned by Jenn, he will have a headache to death.
As for the "Holy Spirit", it can almost be said that it is the doppelganger and spokesperson of the gods, which is very powerful, but it is also a headache. Because of the nature of the dungeon, you naturally don't expect to summon any peaceful and kind god clones and representatives. You can think of how troublesome things will be on your toes, so Jenn doesn't want to cause them. And the reason why he chose to summon a mixture was to increase the probability of the "Holy Beast" level being summoned and reduce the probability of the appearance of the "Holy Messenger" and the "Holy Spirit". After all, Jenn is very aware of the mechanics of this system, and knows that the more pure the summoned combat units, the higher the level, and the vice versa.
Of course. The thought only passed through Jenn's mind, and he tossed it aside. Then he reached out and pressed the button in front of him.
The temple began to tremble.
I don't know if it's because it's built on the surface and not underground. At this moment, the "Dark Temple" in front of Jenn was not as dim and gloomy as the one in the dark area, on the contrary, it was shining with pure white and soft magical light around it, and the pool in the center was not as dark and strange as the one underground, and a pool of clear spring water looked like rippling blue waves, which made people's hearts move. In the middle of the pond, the black hand asking for money was transformed into the image of a holy woman kneeling on a platform and praying sincerely. If it weren't for the name of the Dark Sanctuary written on it, Jenn wouldn't even think it was some kind of ghost place like the Temple of Radiance.
But...............
Looking at the statue of the saint who was originally kneeling on the platform and praying sincerely, slowly opened her hands and made a "ask for money" gesture to Jenn with a smile, Jenn suddenly understood that Cheng Dù, who was not immortal in this system, was still so high......... It doesn't look like it's changed at all.
[Summoning resources are confirmed, whether to summon or not?] 】
"Summon."
After once again scolding the system for its perilous nature of forcing players to change kryptonite without the slightest change, Jenn quickly chose to be sure. Soon, the statue of the Holy Maiden, who had received the resources, folded its hands again and regained its original form of prayer. Immediately after, a white glow began to flicker.
The aura of the Divine appeared in the temple, and one dazzling light after another gathered from all directions towards the defense line where the Holy Maiden had fallen off. Soon, the golden line of law mixed with mysterious runes faintly appeared, and the next moment, everything changed.
"Boom!!"
The pure white pillar of light rose to the sky with the statue of the Holy Maiden as the center, and around it, countless huge, mysterious words of the Holy Word formed a barrier and spread out, and the next moment, the light filled in along the gap of the Holy Word, and then, a huge, glittering gate several meters high appeared in front of Jenn.
"The Holy Gate?"
Seeing this scene, Jenn frowned, of course he knew what it was, but what made Jenn a little uneasy was that the appearance of the Divine Gate was for him......... It doesn't seem like a good sign.
And at this time, under Jenn's gaze, the pure white door in front of him slowly opened. (To be continued......)
