Chapter 298: A New Prey Appears
Turns out it was all because of maintenance costs.
Not to mention the price of recruitment.
If it weren't for Xu Ran's unique eternal-level talent [10,000-fold reward], the huge amount of gold coins it brought.
Wanting to recruit such a large number of epic rarities, but obtained the army of the final professional certification, is definitely an extremely expensive thing.
And casually recruiting 10 to 20 million is a drizzle for the light camp and the dark camp.
Because the army needed by these two camps must use billions as the unit.
Xu Ran remembers clearly.
In the previous life, they probably waited until the late stage of the game, when the two camps started an all-out war, they frantically began to invest in resources, thus recruiting a huge number of legions.
At that time, the army that seemed to be comparable to the epic and rare army that Xu Ran was recruiting now became the main force of his recruitment in a real sense, and thus took the center stage of the war.
Now he estimates.
The number of armies of the same type owned by the two camps should be controlled below 50 million.
Like the main force composed of three-rank powerhouses, the number should be counted in units of 100 million.
looks like
This number is far beyond Xu Ran's imagination.
But because the territories of the two camps are too large, and they are composed of various races and corresponding countries, such as the Frost Empire.
The forces in these camps seem extremely united.
But in fact, there is also competition.
So it seems that the strength of the two camps is extremely strong and magnificent.
However, if it is shared equally, the army that can be requisitioned in a short period of time will only be tens of millions.
Therefore, before the frantic recruitment of troops began, the scale of troops that the two camps could dispatch was not that terrifying.
But this does not mean that Xu Ran can take it lightly.
Now he has declared war on the light camp.
so.
This also means that an all-out war is about to break out.
As expected.
The first round of troop expansion for the two camps should start in the next few days.
So Xu Ran must seize this opportunity.
Because the main city in his actual territory and the number of players he rules are not too many.
Therefore, his basic recruitment limit is currently around 15 million.
Plus the upper limit of temporary recruitment.
He can recruit a total of about 30 million troops.
look.
In the eyes of the two camps, the scale of this force is simply the younger brother.
But if the army he recruited is all epic rare quality, and has obtained the kind of terrifying powerhouse finally recognized by the profession.
That would be different.
Even if he can't really kill these two camps, but for now, he is enough to protect himself.
At least in terms of defense, it shouldn't be a big problem.
But Xu Ran wants more than that.
He himself thinks so.
I am a greedy person.
Therefore, he must not only survive under the joint encirclement and suppression of the two camps and other hidden forces.
At the same time, he had to ruthlessly tear off a bite of flesh from the opponent's body.
wrong.
It's a few bites of meat.
While thinking, Xu Ran looked at the map.
currently.
With [Winter City] joining the embrace of the eternal camp, the territory he actually controls has been from [Eternal City] all the way to [Winter City] in the north.
Plus [Frozen City] in the northwest.
Xu Ran's current territory is roughly in the shape of an acute triangle.
Like a sharp knife, it was firmly inserted into the territory of the light camp.
However, this is not enough.
As the edge of this "sharp knife" or "sharp blade", the area where [Winter City] and [Silver Fortress] are located does not have other main cities that echo and support it.
So here it is like a sharp blade penetrating into the enemy's body.
But at the same time, it is surrounded by it on three sides.
Once war breaks out.
Maybe it may not be won by the opponent, but it will definitely be besieged by it.
As a result, the troops he needs to support will also increase a lot.
So he set his sights on [Luo Ye Cheng] in the south-central part of the Frost Empire under the light camp.
This main city is similar to [Frozen City].
They are all functional main cities.
There are not many resources in it, but its scale and territory are quite vast.
Most importantly, as a main city of the Frost Empire.
[Luo Ye Cheng] is just to the northwest of [Winter City], exactly in the middle of the Frost Empire and Xu Ran's territory.
If you can win.
Even if it can't provide the terrifying massive resources like [Winter City] and [Silver Fortress], it can be regarded as a buffer zone.
Can also be a springboard.
It can even realize the expectation of letting him attack the light camp.
And below the map.
At the same time, it is also south of [Eternal City] and [Frozen City], which is the territory of the dark camp.
Here, stand the main cities of the two dark camps.
One is called [Destroyed City].
One is called [Dark City].
In Xu Ran's eyes, these two main cities even have geographical advantages over 【Luo Ye Cheng】.
so.
This [Destroyed City], which contains meteorite iron ore, and [Dark City], which is rich in other resources, have become his "prey".
Only in this way.
Only then can he create a relatively complete front.
Instead of being like now, a camp with only two main cities is too shabby.
But to achieve all this, you must have sufficient strength.
Therefore, it is particularly important to gain buffs for npc equipment later on.
The equipment attribute of npc will increase the effect by 50.
an increase of this magnitude.
It is even enough to make the equipment achieve a quality leap!
And this also has a certain complementary relationship with a plan that Xu Ran will implement in the future.
Generally speaking.
For example, these recruited legions have their own standard equipment of the corresponding level from the beginning.
But the quality of these equipment is the highest quality of pure gold.
Even the epic rare-level quality legion recruited by Xu Ran, the quality of equipment worn is only purple-gold level.
And Xu Ran's plan is to take advantage of this opportunity.
Let the several main cities under his command recruit life-like NPCs full of master-level blacksmiths and tailors, and then start forging directly.
Now he has the corresponding drawings in his hand.
You only need to spend military merit points to exchange for other epic blueprints, and you will definitely be able to forge equipment of the corresponding quality.
If so.
Once these magnificent legions equipped with epic npc suits appeared in front of the main cities of the two camps.
It is bound to make him frightened.
Maybe, with a very small number, they can fight against the enemy's large-scale invasion.
Think here.
Xu Ran already had a decision in his heart.
Now that I have got the seedlings of the world tree.
Then everything starts to speed up.
The first thing to solve is the [Silver Fortress] that is extremely important to him.
