Chapter 263: Million Gold Coins (Part II)
Count Besta listened from the sidelines. He also knew Salin's intentions and did not raise any objections. What he feared most was that Salin's brain was hot, and he went straight to Antos for trouble.
Saleen's bounty is a warning to Antos not to go against Metatrin. Now that the world is getting more and more chaotic, there are many people who dare to assassinate Antos.
Once the bounty is announced, Antos will either continue to oppose Saleen or find someone to clear it up and ask Saleen to withdraw the bounty.
Asking Saleen to withdraw the bounty is tantamount to saying that Antos has relented, and all the money that Salin needs to pay has to be paid by Antos. Together with the interest, the cost of revoking the bounty will be 100,000 gold coins.
Salin's counterattack didn't seem to be light or heavy, but in fact, he deliberately stayed here, letting the winged skeleton face the enemy, and he was already murderous. More than 20,000 troops wanted to besiege him, and the winged skeleton's uninterrupted summoning for more than a year was not a waste of time?
A large part of the reason why the Saleen Demon Core is depleted quickly is because of the Wing Skull. The jade skeleton created by the Wing Skull is also intelligent in its own right. Can summon the undead. In addition to piloting the battleship and training the navy, these skeletons spent the rest of their time helping Salin store the undead army.
Salin doesn't have so many green ghosts, and if the summoned undead want to maintain their combat effectiveness, they have to set up a huge magic array, and draw power from the undead plane at regular intervals every day to support these undead.
Most of the green ghost gems are in the hands of the winged skeletons, and a total of more than 50,000 undead are stored, but the rest are supported by the magic core.
These networks were brought out quite a bit this time, and they were to be given to Rex to use as soldiers on battleships. Since there is an attack, it is also good to let the undead fight with Qin Yin's army, and use the Wing Skull as a training target.
Salin didn't continue to ask the six white-robed mages, he just said to the two injured mages, "The person who beat you is called Trish, do you hate him?"
The two mages looked up, and the whip in Trissy's hand was gone, and he stood behind Salin with a cold look in his eyes. The two white-robed mages smiled bitterly and said, "Trisi is an adult, how dare we ......"
"It's good if you don't dare, I'm still afraid that you will die for no reason, mages are precious, don't risk your life. What level of mages are you?"
"Lord Hui, we are all second-level mages, and there will be no three-pole mages in Qin Yin's army. The three-pole mages are all trying to find ways to advance to the great magicians. ”
"Second-level mage, there is still some use. Salin's words made the white-robed mages a little discouraged, they thought that Salin wanted to recruit followers, but they didn't expect that Salin didn't value their strength. At this time, Elenor and Isabella walked into the room.
"Lord!"
The six white-robed mages saw the two of them wearing gray magic-robed female mages, and their illusions were shattered. On the robes of these two female mages, there are three magic marks, which are the symbols of the sixth-level great magician.
Salin's followers, it seems, are at least at this level.
Of course, Saleen will not sign a follower contract at will, and there is a limit to the number of follower contracts that a mage can sign, depending on how strong the mage's spiritual power is. There are too many contracts signed, and it is easy to have contract loopholes.
The contract signed by Saleen, Nellis, Wings, Nicholas, Zola, and Sue are all powerhouses above level six. To sign any one of them, you must occupy more than two contract positions. Nicholas alone occupies six contract positions in order to make the contract stable.
And there is such a thing as a contract, signing a low-level follower. At least to occupy a contract position, how could Salin waste it on a second-level mage.
For other sixth-level great magicians, second-level magicians are not bad as followers, but Salin can't, he needs the best talents.
Dorothy came in and whispered to Saleen about the city's plans. Salin nodded: "Besta, the enemy is only in his early twenty thousands, and the battle will end soon." I'm going to go to Daliang City as soon as possible, and after the battle, I'll ask the soldiers to make some corpses and zombies for you, and stay to help you defend. ”
"Your Highness, thank you......" Besta knew that Salin was worried that after he left, Qin Yin would still come to look for trouble.
"You don't have to thank me, this time, I wanted to give Holy Rock City a warning, and I may have done too much. After Salin finished speaking, he said to the six white-robed mages: "You go to Daliang City with me, and before you go, you have to sign a contract." Uh-huh......" Salin thought for a moment and asked Elenor and Isabella, "Do you need manpower?"
Elenor shook her head, she didn't need a male mage to follow, if she was short of people, she would ask for a few female Caucasian warriors with Sika, and maybe even train one or two mages.
Isabella also shook her head, following Salin, she didn't need any apprentices or anything like that, everything was taken care of by Salin. If you want these mages, you have to pay for them yourself.
The six white-robed mages were a little anxious, they didn't expect that they would have such a day. It turned out to be a burden that no one needed.
"My lord, give me a few of them. Dorothy spoke, he is good at spiritual magic, he doesn't like hand-to-hand combat very much, getting a few mages around to train can make the mental power of these six guys skyrocket, and they will soon be promoted to the three poles, which is a good helper.
Saleen glanced at the other demons, and Tris and the others shook their heads.
Tris doesn't need helpers, and if she has a choice, she's willing to lead tens of thousands of demons into battle. Laura is completely a human swordsman's fighting style, and her skills are directly after the powerhouses of the Sword Saint level, while Eva is a demon who fights by strength, and has no intention of taking in a mage.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you, but, Dorothy, I don't want them to die in a few years. Saleen warned Dorothy. For demons, they must be suppressed at all times. Otherwise, we might make a mess for you at some point. If the mage who submitted to Saleen did not end well, who would dare to take refuge in him in the future.
"Why, my lord, if I do this, Master Neris will kill me. Dorothy replied with a smile. He's already fantasizing. When he catalyzes these six human mages to level four, there will be six great mages behind him to bless him with shields, and he will be much safer in battle.
As for whether these six guys can advance again, it's not something he needs to consider. It has always been humans who subdue demons, and now, it is finally his turn to submit humans.
The six white-robed mages reluctantly signed a contract with the delicate Dorothy, and when they saw the symbol of the contract, the white-robed mages were even a little desperate. What did they see?
Dorothy looked at the six human mages with a smile and said, "Yes, yes, you are all very knowledgeable, and you actually know demon writing." I am a demon. It's Lord Neris's demon, if you don't obey in the future......"
"Dorothy?" Saleen squinted his eyes and glanced at Dorothy.
Dorothy quickly changed her words: "If you are disobedient, there is no possibility of advancement." I'm going to make you great magicians and learn demonic magic!"
A white-robed mage said with some distraction: "How can this be ......?"
Salin watched from the sidelines, Dorothy had no means of threat, and she was also depressed in her heart, why was it so difficult to subdue a few weak humans by herself, and the humans who signed the servant contract were contemptuous of themselves in their hearts!
Seeing Dorothy's expression, Salin frowned and said: "Dorothy, what benefits can you give them, just say it, don't waste time, and then the four of you, go to help the soldiers, and quickly retreat the enemy." ”
Seeing that Tris was not slow to stare at herself, Dorothy hurriedly said to the mages: "Within a month, I will let you advance to the three-pole magician, and within a year, you will reach the peak state of the three-pole magician, as for when you will become a great magician, it is up to you." ”
Dorothy said it simply, and the six mages were still a little unconvinced.
Dorothy said hatefully, "If you don't want to fight now, I'll let you feel it right away, hmph, come with me." ”
"Wait a minute. Salin opened his mouth to stop Dorothy, took out six low-level staffs, and twenty-four low-level scrolls, handed them to the six white-robed mages, and said, "Use it first, if you need anything, just tell Dorothy, I think he is very willing to help you." ”
Although Saleen wanted to suppress the newly subdued mages, he also did not want to see humans being manipulated by demons at will. The six mages gave it to Dorothy, but Dorothy was going to keep them in the future. Saleen can't pay for everything, otherwise what would the demons do?
The six mages hung their heads. Follow behind Dorothy. After the others were gone, Salin discussed the itinerary with Elenno and the others. It's still far away from Daliang City, but with Salin's speed, it can be reached in three days. It's just that Salin doesn't know if the Marquis of Antos will be angry after he leaves.
If this happens, Antos will definitely continue to send troops to attack, and as soon as he leaves, Count Besta will be unlucky. But Saleen knew that Count Besta would not abandon the town and flee unless ordered by Rex.
I could have contacted Rex, but the Earl's escape was another blow to the Bitterwater Commandery. The Kushui County is competing with Qin Yin for the land of Garulan, and if it is soft, the Garudan people are afraid that they will all go to Qin Yin's army.
Salin remembered the Assassin beside Rex, the old man named Byrne, who would have saved himself a lot of trouble if he could have killed Antos.
Here Salin pondered the arrangements after leaving, and the battle at the north gate of the town became unexpectedly fierce. The winged skeleton shot and killed the scattered cavalry, which annoyed Qin Yin's battalion general, and the army immediately advanced, and the large siege equipment was also pushed to a position four miles away from the city, throwing stones into the town.
According to the intelligence, the trebuchets in the town attacked less than three miles away.
The city immediately launched a counterattack, hundreds of trebuchets roared and smashed stones into Qin Yin's position, without correction, no field survey, and lack of guidance from low-level mages, these hundreds of trebuchets simply smashed according to the marked scale, anyway, the distance of the enemy had been estimated on the city.
Inside and outside the city, there are heavy losses!
