Chapter 912 - 116: The Territory’s Formidable Military Power (Part 3)
Su Li now desperately needs the support of his family members.
He patted the back of Death’s Claw, comforting the excited beast. It was about to go to the battlefield, filled with anticipation for the upcoming fight. Without calming it down, it would have likely thrown Hilude’s mount far away.
Once its speed slowed down, Su Li pointed to the shining, banner-flying army below and said, "My Chief Steward, look at our army. It’s so mighty and majestic now. All it lacks is the family crest. In the letter we sent to the family, we specifically requested the family to send a few members with Bauhinia bloodline over, just so they could provide the family crest for us."
The Bauhinia Clan’s crest is indeed magnificent and powerful enough to ensure that even if a knight is surrounded by dozens of goblins, there’s a faint intimidation within a three-meter range, preventing the monsters from swarming. And although this intimidation is a weakened version, it still reduces the opponent’s attack, speed, morale, et cetera, making their attacks indecisive and hesitant.
However, while the crest may be perfect in every way, the conditions to make it are too strict. It requires dwarves to repeatedly forge it with Vibranium, not to mention the need for Bauhinia Clan bloodline.
Su Li had previously insisted on not wanting to be a blood donor, yet despite his protests, he had his blood drawn over 30 times!
Did they really take him for some bottom-tier cow or horse from the USA, with unlimited patience? Using Su Li’s blood, the knights wear the crest; wouldn’t they taste blood when drinking?
Thus, it would be best for the family to send a few knights over to provide the family bloodline to help. Otherwise, extracting blood over ten times a month made Su Li feel strange. How did managing the territory turn him into a blood donor? He didn’t want to end up on the toilet seat.
Hilude also soothed her mount, named Tearing Blood Mark, a female Griffin. She previously mentioned to Su Li when her mount hatched that Tearing Blood Mark and the Half Griffin Tearing Claw are sister and brother.
Undoubtedly, Tearing Claw is bigger between the siblings.
But regardless of Tearing Claw or Tearing Blood Mark, they are both smaller than Death’s Claw.
During this time together, both Su Li and Hilude discovered that Death’s Claw is like a proud warrior, always holding its head high with pride, yearning for war and utterly disdainful of the opposite gender.
Neither Jin Ya, Tearing Claw, nor Tearing Blood Mark could impress it. Women? They would only slow down its strike speed.
This made it difficult for any mount to get close to Su Li; it stood unique, existing in the territory outfitted with Rare Level armor.
This Rare Level Fiery Sun Armor was newly crafted in the territory; after all, the Armory was fully committed to producing Fiery Sun Horse Armor, which by chance yielded a set, currently only worn by Su Li’s mount.
In the future, without a doubt, Su Li would gather a set for Green Dragon Aeliria. For Aeliria’s armor, it must be Divine Chosen Level, which adjusts with her size, allowing her to wear it as humanoid armor. Otherwise, with the woman’s inherent pride as a Giant Dragon, she would not willingly be a mount. Su Li already noticed that Freya’s ways don’t work on this woman.
After calming her mount, Hilude confidently said to Su Li, "Lord, Lord, rest assured, even if the crest’s numbers are insufficient, it won’t significantly affect our combat power. Our knights are confident in defeating all current enemies! Even the Night Wanderer Corpse poses no challenge."
Hilude dared to challenge the Night Wanderer Corpse, clearly showing that Hesse Territory indeed provided her with great confidence in its fighting prowess.
Of course, Hesse Territory’s configuration is highly efficient; currently, within the team, the three Divine Chosen form a perfect combination.
Demster, the Raven Dominator, is extremely durable, a perfect tank. He dared to challenge the High Tier Divine Chosen Giant Dragon, Red Dragon Drake, alone. Even Drake couldn’t take him down after fighting for several days and nights.
And Dietrich, the Divine Chosen Hospital Knight of Healing Goddess Shalya, maxed out healing abilities as a Priest, providing Demster abundant healing and purification effects.
With their combination, even the Night Wanderer Corpse leader, Legendary Level Necromancer Old Jasper, would find it difficult to instantly kill Demster.
Adding Hilude with her 40-meter Blazing Longsword for output, Old Jasper would indeed be pressed and might easily get struck if careless.
However, taking down such a Legendary Level Mage is undoubtedly extremely challenging. Its life is of Legendary Level strength, hard to kill, plus it uses Life Suction necromancy to sustain itself. To kill it might require the three knights to be without flaws and to besiege it for several days.
Coordinating seamlessly for three consecutive days and nights is no easy task for several knights.
Relying solely on three Divine Chosen Knights to take down a Legendary Level Mage is unrealistic. Fortunately, under Su Li, there are also Oerstein and Aeliria. If they join the warband, it adds another mage for crowd control and an additional output knight.
