Global Lord: Start with Divine Favor-Chapter 870 - 169: Shadow Demon Spear Enhancement (2)

This is incredible!

If a unit enslaved by the Royal Court consumes 512 Command Value, as long as it kills ten soldiers that each consume 512 Command Value, it can permanently become part of Audrey's subordinates under Royal Court Enslavement.

Or to put it more clearly, if a Tier Five Heroic Spirit-level soldier is killed by Audrey, and within 320 seconds of being enslaved by the Royal Court, it kills 10 Tier Five Heroic Spirit-level units, it will permanently become a Royal Court Warrior under Audrey's command! It will no longer disperse.

The key point is! The key is that their name remains [Royal Court Enslavement]!

This means that in future battles following Audrey, they can still expand Audrey's troop size.

So in future battles, Audrey doesn't need to start from scratch and accumulate Royal Court Enslaved soldiers again.

Moreover, these soldiers do not consume Audrey's Commander Value.

Audrey wishes she could dismiss her entire troop and execute them all, replacing the entire force with Royal Court Enslavement.

However, despite these benefits, this enhancement does come at a cost.

The cost is that soldiers under Royal Court Enslavement belong to the magic spear, not to Audrey, so these soldiers cannot participate in high-tier sacrifices.

From the moment they are enslaved, their soldier level remains unchanged.

They cannot be used for consumption and sacrifice.

This actually wastes some of Audrey's Divine Artifact potential.

Audrey's Semi-Divine Artifact, Netherworld Lock, can rely on buffs to mass-produce elite troops, and the Divine Artifact, Shadow Robe, can elevate these elite troops to Lord-level.

Now the inability to sacrifice Royal Court Enslaved soldiers is somewhat regrettable.

But these two are not necessarily conflicting, as they represent two developmental directions for undead abilities.

The Dark Temple Warrior branch breaks through towards high-tier combat power, while the Royal Court Enslavement maintains the scale of the Sea of the Dead. Though their strengths vary, they have no consumption of Command Value, yet they can quickly spread!

With each battle, they become stronger, and with each battle, the army expands a little more. Before long, Audrey's army will grow to a staggering size.

Moreover, she has a Strategic Trait to balance these two abilities.

[Strategic Trait: Cold Night Law: The law of the cold night is as iron, unshakeable and unbreakable. Under the empire's protection, we are all its subjects. Anyone who challenges imperial authority or defies the empire's will shall face judgment. Those who dare to oppose will tremble in the cold night, for this is the will of the law, the will of the empire. Undead Soldiers Attack Power +18%, Commander Value consumption for undead soldiers -20%, a slight chance to immediately convert defeated evil and lawful units into undead creatures under one's command when fighting against them.]

With this trait, she can handle both directions.

Quickly dominating low-tier cannon fodder and sacrificing them for high-tier combat power, as well as having an enslaved army from Royal Court Enslavement to rapidly spread on the battlefield.

Naturally, this enhancement benefits the Fallen Angel Natasha the most; not only has she risen from Tier Seven to Tier Eight, but her Ultimate Ability has received unparalleled enhancement!

[Apocalypse Wings: Super-Tier Trait: The dark wings of an angel's descent, containing endless power of corruption. They can help Dark Angels create and control a Dark Realm, altering the environment and atmosphere. Any target above Legendary-level killed within the Dark Realm by a Fallen Angel will become a dark weapon, eternally under its control (Note: The target's consumed Command Value will significantly decay; for every 1-point Natasha's Charm exceeds the opponent's, it reduces 100 Command Value).]

A Tier Six Legendary-level soldier consumes 16,384 Command Value. If Natasha's Charm value is 100 points higher than the opponent, the consumption of this Legendary-level soldier will be reduced to just a fraction, 6,384 points.

And having a Charm value 100 points higher than an opponent is quite common for Natasha.

As she is fundamentally of the charm element, an Tier Eight Legendary charm element soldier can easily surpass an Tier Eight Warrior by 100 points of Charm, and surpassing the charm limit of Tier Seven or Six soldiers by 100 or even 200 points is normal.

This means when she kills Tier Six or Seven Legendary units, they will undoubtedly be transformed into her dark weapons.

If she were to kill someone like Lin Rui, whose Charm is only 67 points, even at Tier Eight, her Charm would effectively nullify most of the opponent's consumption.

However, not everyone's Charm is so low, so to be safe, she hopes to acquire items that improve her Commander Attribute and effects.

So now, her gaze towards Lin Rui is full of charm.

Unfortunately, the situation is quite urgent, and Lin Rui can only disappoint the beauty's expectations by first leading Audrey to the Jade Heart to prepare for assembly.

The human side dispatched a squad of Twelve-winged Great Angels!

Since humanity is not known for high-tier combat power, twelve Twelve-winged Angels are enough to demonstrate the Human Empire's sincerity.

Leading them is a human Knight Commander. He looked at Lin Rui with a stern face and asked, "Just the two of you? Do you think this is a picnic? We are not a nursery!"

Clearly, he has a low opinion of Audrey and Lin Rui's prowess; a mere Tier Seven combat power is no different from mortals in his eyes.

Seeing Audrey in her luxurious long dress and enticing black stockings, he frowned even deeper and reprimanded, "This is a hunt, not a salon dance!"

Audrey's promise was immediately challenged!

She was so enraged that her chest heaved violently, and she retorted in a delicate voice, "Do you believe that a mere Tier Ten Knight Hero can be so arrogant? Do you believe that without my father's intervention, even a summoned creature subordinate alone could wipe you out!"

"Arrogant!" He shouted angrily and drew his sword to teach Audrey a lesson!

Evidently, he was proving his point that he did not think a mere Tier Seven mage could pose any significant threat to him.

The brilliant Sword Qi illuminated the branches of the World Tree. Lin Rui reached out, and a shield formed from Jade Ice blocked in front of Audrey. More importantly, the glow of the Sub-Invincible Shield burst forth, directly nullifying his enormous attack.

Lin Rui calmly looked towards the humans and said, "Go back and tell Nancy he's in debt to me for a Legendary Hero's Heart, 300 million Spirit Crystal Coins, and a Sacred Treasure. If I finish the battle and he hasn't prepared them by my return, I will personally go and take them!"

Even the most reckless person can understand the implication behind Lin Rui's words!

If Nancy hasn't prepared everything, Lin Rui will personally deal with it, killing this Knight Hero and the twelve Great Angels behind him!

Lin Rui then gestured, and the towering figure of the Celestial Divine Priest: God Jian appeared behind him, casting an overwhelming pressure towards the Knight Commander below.

In that instant, the Knight Hero in front of him immediately believed Audrey's words. Lin Rui indeed doesn't need to act himself; even a follower could wipe him out!

A Tier Nine Legendary Celestial Divine Priest is only a rank lower than him, but under Lin Rui's command, with dozens of traits and strategic traits plus Holy Spirit and Mythical blessings granted by Lin Rui, wiping out a mere Tier Ten human hero is absolutely within reach.

At that moment, his face turned ash-gray, as it meant this single sword stroke cost the Empire a Legendary Hero's Heart and 300 million Spirit Crystal Coins, plus a Sacred Treasure!

The brilliant sword light flashed and vanished, and shortly afterward, Nancy rushed over, pale: "What happened? What happened? How did you start fighting the moment I was slightly late? Faraday, did you rashly offend Lord Lin Rui? This is the empire's most esteemed ally; how could you offend our most honored guest? Quickly apologize to Lord Lin Rui. Lord Lin Rui is always magnanimous and will not hold it against you."
