Chapter 1038: Chapter 243: Expanding Two Cavalry Divisions (Part 2)

Although the Ogre Prisoner Camp sold prisoners on the brink of death, it also showed that with enough opportunity, 50,000 Spirit Crystal Coins could already buy an Epic-level unit.

And the devout followers of the Warband Monastery were undoubtedly one of Lin Rui’s opportunities!

Rare Level civilians without professions were precisely the training conditions for the Catastrophe-level unit: Celestial Punishment Fear Knight.

Lin Rui had already built two Catastrophe-level unit camps.

[Celestial Punishment Fear Knights were specialized troops against demons. They rode specially modified Space Airships to complete secret missions throughout the Empire, ensuring that any demons daring to show themselves would meet their doom. All members were Spiritweavers who underwent rigorous Spiritual Training and were equipped with various specialized Spiritual Weapons, capable of sweeping the battlefield with high shooting speed Explosive Bomb Guns enhanced by Spiritual Energy, or casually throwing Spiritual Lightning and Flame Storms.]

[Once completed, Rare Level civilians can be converted into Catastrophe-level Celestial Punishment Fear Knights. Training time: 4 cycles. Training cost: Tier Five Spiritual Gem*10, Spirit Crystal Coin*100,000, Mithril*100,000, Vibranium*100,000]

These devout followers of the Warband Monastery were perfect new recruits for the Celestial Punishment Fear Knights.

In fact, this was quite normal, as these devout followers of the Warband Monastery were initially trained for the selection of White Wolf Knights.

But the barracks Lin Rui exchanged with prestige from the Plane War could train recruits into more powerful units.

[Emperor’s Blade · Catastrophe-level Trait: Celestial Punishment Fear Knights are an indestructible shield before the oncoming darkness; a sharp blade forged in defiance of fate; when attacked, Celestial Punishment Fear Knights will block 20% of total damage automatically, and if the blocked damage exceeds total Life Value, they gain [Defense Enhancement: Block], obtaining an extra health bar slot, and until this white Life Value is emptied, they will be immune to all non-True Damage. Critical Strike Rate increases by 20%, and when a critical strike kills the opponent, [Attack Enhancement: Critical Strike] is gained, converting all damage into critical strike damage and triggering all critical strike effects.]

[Silver Radiance lv10: Celestial Punishment Fear Knights are a shining steel barrier against Chaos Demons; as one of the most powerful and perfect warriors of the Empire, their will is unyielding, and military discipline strict. They are always on alert for demon invasions, ready to respond with wrath to the followers and henchmen of the Dark God. After a critical strike, the silver radiance will immediately assist in swinging the arms for another wrathful attack, increasing Critical Strike Rate by 10% and damage by 50%. (Another critical strike can still trigger Silver Radiance)]

This combination of trait and skill significantly enhances the offensive capability of Celestial Punishment Fear Knights after slaying opponents, becoming veritable killing machines.

Celestial Punishment Fear Knights are known within the territory as a unit that excels at crushing weaker foes, with unparalleled efficiency against Low-Tier troops.

In the Epic Wonder Building: Holy Grail Champion Divine Hall, Catastrophe-level Knights can already be stably converted into Epic-level Holy Grail Knights.

[Super-Tier Trait: Goddess’s Generosity: Holy Grail Knights, when Life Value is below 10%, will deal Divine Damage equal to 50% of lost Life Value to all enemies within a 50-meter range, and will recover an equivalent amount of Life Value from the damage caused. Usable once a day, but if a war lasts over a day and a night, daily uses +1]

With this trait enhancement, theoretically, four unwearied Holy Grail Knights can purge a Demon Legion.

Especially when combined with the Courtyard Snake Breathing Technique.

[Courtyard Snake Knight Breathing Technique: This technique is said to originate from ancient knightly orders, combining the ancient breathing method with the wisdom and strength of the Courtyard Snake, enabling the user to be as agile, calm, and resilient as a snake in battle. During the founding wars of human kingdoms, this technique played a crucial role in battle, allowing knights who truly mastered it to slash through enemies effortlessly.]

[The secret incantation is detailed and mysterious. In the dark and silent chamber, learners must forget worldly clamor and focus on listening to the whispers of the Snake Spirits. Only through deep communication and understanding with these mysterious beings can users truly grasp the power of the Courtyard Snake Knight Breathing Technique. Whether performing the Snake Wind Dance of Dragon’s Roar or wandering the plains alone with a Duster, users of the Courtyard Snake Knight Breathing Technique can leap gracefully like a nimble snake body taking to the skies. Their attacks are like swords penetrating clouds and breaking through rain, swift and precise, full of deadly threats.]

[However, solving the mysteries of the Courtyard Snake Knight Breathing Technique is only reserved for those knights with truly noble virtues and enough luck to become Legendary Divine Knights who defend justice and glory.]

[Master the Courtyard Snake Knight Breathing Technique: gain Advanced Resilience Trait, reducing control effects by 60%.]

[Gain Advanced Vibrating Power: when attacking enemy units, disarm the opponent for 1 second.]

[Gain Resilient Body: Life Value Limit +50%, every 24 hours Life Value +10 points, Physical Defense +1 point]

[Gain Courtyard Snake Trait: Life Value is cyclical, and when the knight’s Life Value is depleted, they will not immediately die but instead gain a shield equivalent to their Life Value; during this time, the shield Value passively declines and can also be attacked by the opponent. Shield Value depleted results in soldier demise. Shield Value receiving healing will store healing Value, with healing Value equivalent to Life Value when soldier’s Life Value is fully restored.]

They are uncontrollable, Life Value is cyclical, and in the Goddess’s Generosity of the Golden Pansy Knight Order, there is also a blessing similar to that of Holy Knights, restoring Life Value when attacking opponents.

Place them at the center of a whirlpool, and they can engage in continuous fierce battles for decades, or even centuries.

Yurik sold over twenty thousand Warband Monastery devout followers, raising the price to 200,000 Spirit Crystal Coins per individual, a 20-fold increase!

The enormous profits from arms trading are teased and played to perfection.

Yet Lin Rui did not lose out, not only acquiring two divisions of Golden Pansy Knights, but this money did not pass through Yurik’s hands and returned in full.

After all, compared to Lin Rui’s need for Warband Monastery devout followers, Yurik’s demand for Epic Potion and Legendary Weapon was more urgent.

This Spirit Crystal Coin was essentially a transfer from Lin Rui’s left hand to his right, revolving once.

However, the benefits it brought were certainly not empty transfers.

The charm of commercial trade lies in this: a win-win situation where neither side feels they lost anything, yet both added two divisions of Epic-level troops.

This improvement in strength was incomparable for both sides.

Even in the Divine Kingdom, two divisions of Celestial Kingdom Armament advancing from Heroic Spirit Level to Epic Level marked a significant achievement.

Yurik’s strength became more formidable, enabling more military actions.

Lin Rui also gained more troops, ready to enter the Desolate Domain World.

Through the effect of many cycles of [Historically Significant] enhancement, not only was the Epic-level unit expanded, but the Legendary-level unit also greatly increased.

Zodiac: Aries Palace can summon four Legendary-level Saints a year.

While it seems like a small number, converting to cycles, it’s actually not. There are only 52 cycles in a year, and Lin Rui triggered the historically significant effect approximately 300 times.

This means that Lin Rui now has nearly 30 Legendary-level Saints in his hands.

And this is just the beginning. Once Lin Rui activates this Radiant Hourglass, a large number of Epic-level units will receive enhancements.

This time entering the Desolate Domain World, perhaps Lin Rui can form a grand army composed of Legendary Soldiers.

With this scale of troops, no matter how strong the tiers of the Desolate Domain World are, Lin Rui believes he can make an attempt.

It’s unlikely that inside are all Demigod-level or Divine-level beings, right?

Even if there are Demigod-level troops everywhere, the Legendary Soldiers led by Commander Wutong can still handle them with ease.

The only issue is how to help Wutong reduce the Command Value consumed by so many Legendary Soldiers.
