Lord Game: I Have 100 Million Talents-Chapter 209 - 121: Mass-Producing Invincible Sielo Knights

Chapter 209: Chapter 121: Mass-Producing Invincible Sielo Knights

Realizing the "War Merit Enfeoffment" Talent had a third function not specified by the Lord System, Qin Feng couldn’t help but murmur in awe:

"As expected of a Hidden Talent from the ’Riding and Cutting’ system."

"It’s insane."

After speaking, Qin Feng continued to direct several other Divine Chosen Soldiers beside him to individually hunt down and kill specific Void Bosses wandering the battlefield, then enfeoffed them all as Heroic Units.

These newly promoted Heroic Units were all of Ordinary Level quality. Their level cap was fixed at 50, and their Awakened Hero Talents were unremarkable, nowhere near as exaggerated as the standard Legendary Talents of Legendary Heroes.

But thanks to the additional Talent buffs plundered from the Void Bosses, their true combat power had already surpassed that of conventional Ordinary Level heroes.

On a level playing field, setting aside the extra enhancements granted by Divine Chosen Lords and other external factors, these ordinary Heroic Units could typically take on several soldier units at once.

For example, a Zero-star (purple) hero could single-handedly defeat six Zero-star (purple) Shielded Infantry, or three Zero-star (gold) Shielded Infantry.

Or,

perhaps even stronger.

Their status was roughly equivalent to "Elite Monsters" in other games.

It wasn’t as exaggerated as in Total Warhammer, where a single hero could chase down and slaughter several army corps.

Nor was it like a One Star Extraordinary Creature, which could crush a Zero-star ordinary creature.

But Heroic Units had four advantages.

First, they could equip exclusive Heroic Weapons and Heroic Equipment. These external power-ups were enough to let them crush soldiers of the same level.

Second, they could be equipped with Heroic Treasures. Items like the Legion Battle Banner (Offense) Qin Feng had obtained earlier, when stacked, created a fighting force that could not be underestimated.

Third, they could later awaken wide-area buffing Talents like "Evil Aura," providing additional combat bonuses to all surrounding soldiers and allies.

Fourth, as mentioned before, Heroic Units were not restricted by Profession. They could hold multiple roles, thereby acquiring more attribute points and Combat Skills.

Therefore, even the worst Ordinary Level Heroic Unit had a much higher priority for development than any soldier unit that had reached the Extraordinary Realm.

Furthermore,

according to MC, Hungry Wolf, and the others,

if a soldier unit was promoted to the Extraordinary One Star stage and became a true Extraordinary Creature, it would no longer follow the Level 1 to Level 6 soldier promotion system.

Their quality would become fixed based on the first Extraordinary Profession they chose after their breakthrough.

They were divided into Ordinary Soldier Type (white), Good Soldier Type (green), Elite Soldier Type (blue), Epic Soldier Type (purple), Legendary Soldier Type (gold), and so on.

Moreover,

since soldier units cannot awaken Talents,

and excluding mechanical monstrosities like Qin Feng and the Valkyrie, who had reached the Mythical and Legendary Levels,

the power gap between Extraordinary Creatures of the same realm was not particularly large.

Therefore, the core impact of these different quality Professions was not a reduction in their individual or overall combat power, but rather a lock on their level caps and growth potential.

For example,

the level cap for an Ordinary Profession soldier type was 50.

In the third stage of Lord World, other higher-quality Extraordinary Soldier Types could be raised to levels 60 and 70, obtaining a higher combat power rating.

Meanwhile, the personal combat power of these Ordinary Profession Extraordinary Soldiers would be forever stuck at level 50, in the second stage.

Although they could be forcibly enhanced through things like Lord Talents and Treasures,

the cost-effectiveness was far inferior to developing Extraordinary Soldier Types that were already Elite or Epic Professions.

At this point, there were only three ways to reverse the "benchwarmer" status of these "obsolete old cards."

First, use them as cannon fodder. Even if it took several hundred units to take down a single higher-star Extraordinary Soldier, this was the only way they could still shine.

Second, find a way to turn them into Acquired Heroic Units, allowing them to use Heroic Equipment, Heroic Treasures, Hero Talents, and multiple Professions to regain top-tier combat effectiveness.

Third, have them form "Wing Connection" units with other high-quality Extraordinary Soldiers, allowing them to barely keep up with top-tier Extraordinary Soldier Types in a supportive, "accessory" role.

In short,

Qin Feng’s "Unit Upgrade" Talent could not be used on Extraordinary Soldier Types.

Because, strictly speaking, an Extraordinary Soldier Type was the ultimate form of every soldier unit and the end of the Gold Coin promotion system.

For example, the level 6 soldiers from the original game, like the Badanian Fiona Champion or the Valandian Banner Knight.

Unless you used a mod,

it was impossible to upgrade them any further.

By the same logic, for any Divine Chosen Soldier who had become a One Star Extraordinary Creature to continue advancing,

there were only two paths available: becoming a "Heroic Creature" or a "Wing Connection" unit.

Qin Feng could no longer raise their Soldier Level.

As for...

...why he would bother training Ordinary Soldier Types when Legendary Soldier Types existed...

...it was because the requirements for obtaining high-quality Extraordinary Soldier Types were simply too demanding.

Take the "Sielo Knight Training Hall" that Qin Feng currently possessed. Its requirements for changing Profession were: achieving Legendary Level proficiency in all weapons, participating in and personally slaying 500 Void Creatures, mastering the "Divine Gift Block and Counterattack" and "Divine Gift Dodge" skills, and maintaining 100% Loyalty to Qin Feng.

If he were to blindly pursue these ultimate soldier types and completely abandon the transitional Ordinary Soldier Types...
