Grand Arcanist of Azeroth

Chapter 227 Confident Xalatas

Xal'atath, an artifact imbued with dark power, is a perfect match for a small arcane golem custom-made for it.

The powerful shadow energy output by him flows in the body made of shadow stone, which is enough to meet the action needs of small arcane puppets.

A small arcane puppet with a Xalatas brand energy source no longer needs to worry about energy shortages.

The only regret is that this dark artifact is too short.

Even if Salatas is straightened, it will only be a little over half a meter long.

This odd-shaped dagger is slightly more curved than the full moon scimitar, and it is destined to be used in close combat.

Could it be possible for Herald to become a martial arts master and teach a small arcane puppet a set of cool magic swords?
In fact, even if Herald really knows how to slash with a sword, it is impossible to use it on the battlefield.

On a battlefield with tens of thousands of enemies, martial arts skills can't kill so many enemies!
Ding Peng, the protagonist in the round moon scimitar, hacked and killed more than 300 martial arts masters when his strength reached its peak.

Even if there is one enemy with one knife, it will be chopped down with one knife.

How can there be a giant sword or a long-handled machete to slash and kill ten enemies with one blow?

Although it feels like a headache, I still have to use this short dark artifact.

After all, the sharpness of this odd-shaped dagger is absolutely satisfactory!

The ancient gods are at the level of gods anyway.

How many weapons can be made with the claws of gods?

In order to master the advanced skills of using the dagger, Herald specially asked Alleria to guide him in dagger fighting.

As for Xalatas, who has lived for countless thousands of years.

All of his skill points are spent on chatterbox proficiency.

I don't know anything about melee skills, and they can't play any guiding role at all!
Alleria, who is good at using short swords and daggers, tortured Herald so badly in practice.

Xalatas was directing "beep beep" on the side.

"Be careful, she's going to stick it on your neck!"

"Hurry up! This can't be stopped!"

"She's going to turn around, turn around quickly!"

Xalatath may have a good eye.

But after all, it was just an afterthought, and it couldn't help Herald in any way.

Every time he analyzed it, Alleria had already succeeded.

Fortunately, the blunt dagger with no edge was used during training.

Otherwise, Herald would have been riddled with holes by her.

Even so, the feeling of being backstabbed or cut by a blunt dagger is still not very pleasant.

Alleria's movements are agile, and her steps are changeable.

Herald, a novice who has mastered basic combat skills, is a living target in front of her.

However, as the number of beatings increased, Herald's fighting skills improved rapidly.

Even Alleria was surprised by this rapid improvement in fighting skills.

In fact, it is not unusual for Herald to improve his combat skills so quickly.

He was previously blessed by the blue dragon king Malygos.

The blessing effect of Malygos is somewhat similar to the arcane wisdom in the game.

The arcane intelligence effect in the game is to increase the upper limit of intelligence attributes.

That is, increasing the mana cap of the caster's class.

Those occupations without mana can have the effect of accelerating the improvement of weapon proficiency.

This special effect is the conclusion drawn by players after extensive testing.

After the blessing of arcane wisdom, the weapon proficiency of attacking monsters is obviously improved.

This effect is more pronounced in reality.

After all, it was the blessing of the majestic king of magic.

If the effect of the blessing is too poor, Malygos will definitely be embarrassed to take it out.

After half a day of intensive training by Alleria, Herald can already use a dagger in a decent manner.

He began programming dagger combat for smaller arcane golems.

It's a bit of a waste of energy and time to toss so much for dagger skills.

In fact, these efforts are worth it!
If you can master the dagger well, it will be easier to use other weapons.

Seeing the small arcane puppet's professional dagger skills, Alleria was deeply moved by the situation.

"If these guys master more fighting skills, will they replace the ranger in the future?"

Hearing Aurelia's worries about the future, Herald put his arms around her shoulders to comfort her.

"Sister, if you can completely replace the ranger with an arcane puppet, you should be happy about it.

As long as there is war, there must be sacrifices. The arcane puppet that can be produced quickly is the most suitable victim of war. "

Real wars are brutal!
The soldiers who charged into battle were like ants, crushed to pieces by powerful enemies or artillery fire!
Therefore, regardless of the world of science and technology or the world of magic, unmanned combat units are a very reasonable development route.

Normal manned tanks and chariots are fighting on the front line, and only one anti-tank missile carried by a single soldier can easily kill a car of people.

If it is an unmanned tank or an unmanned combat vehicle, the driver can operate tens of kilometers away, or even farther away.

The same is true for airplanes flying in the sky.

Air defense missiles allow pilots to meet God or Buddha every minute.

Drones are the most suitable for the battlefield.

A drone master can replace thousands of pilots.

Being shot down is nothing more than losing a drone.

This is also the case in the wizarding world.

In the face of powerful enemies, especially Faye, the number of fighters is just the number!
If any large-scale magic goes down, hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of people will be wiped out.

If you risk your life, you are really giving away your head thousands of miles away.

Therefore, the wizarding world also needs a large number of unmanned war machines.

The magic world has a great advantage in unmanned combat.

Arcane puppets or other series of puppets have a very long service life.

As long as the magic patterns on the runes on the body are not destroyed by external forces, they can operate stably for more than 1000 years.

In fact, if the high elf mages were not too lazy, the number of arcane puppets would be several times the population.

Even at this stage, arcane puppets can be seen everywhere in the living area of ​​the high elves.

Even the street sweepers are small arcane puppets.

It's just that it's not used in large numbers by the military.

However, as Herald promotes this trend, more and more arcane puppets will enter Quel'Thalas' military system.

Of course, this will not squeeze rangers and other professions out.

But the most dangerous task must be given to the arcane puppet to perform.

As for professions such as fighters and rangers, it is enough to support and command from the side.

After listening to Herald's description of the bright future, Alleria's mood immediately improved a lot.

She was mainly worried about being robbed of her job by an arcane puppet.

If it is just an additional expansion of the team, then there is no problem.

Let the arcane puppet take the lead in the front, and the ranger can accurately snipe behind, this is definitely possible!

When the two were discussing the popularization plan of arcane puppets, Xalatas, who directed the small arcane puppets to practice attack routines, was yelling excitedly.

"It's amazing! This attack angle is really tricky!"

"The fighting skills of those previous hosts are all hot!"

"I feel like I'm ready to fight the Faceless General!"

The Faceless General is the most powerful Faceless created by the Old Gods.

Zakaz of Tyr's Tomb is a Faceless General.

That is a super strong man who can force Tire to self-destruct before killing him.

Although Tire's glorious deeds are all kinds of being beaten and ravaged by the enemy.

For example, Zakaz was eliminated by self-detonation, and his arm was bitten off when he beat the ancestor dragon king Galakrond.

But that's definitely not because Tire's strength is too weak!
Being able to win the title of God of War, Tire's strength can be imagined.

The enemy this guy encountered is really too powerful!

So the strength of General Faceless is of course very strong.

Ordinary demigods can't beat them at all!
The servant of the ancient god that the troll killed with the power of the whole country was General Faceless.

A large number of trolls and several loa gods besieged to kill that powerful monster.

Don't look at Xalatas's cowhide blowing loudly, Herald suspects that he can't break through the defense at all.

After all, the strength he possesses now probably hasn't reached the threshold of demigod level.

However, as a member of Mouth King, Xalatath's self-confidence is very inflated.

He can't wait to show his great strength.
