This Lich Needs More Money Chapter 427

Chapter 427 Begin preparations for war

“What, let me go to fight?”

Catherine in the magic mirror had just heard Amber's request to her, and immediately shook her head and refused.

This lich actually asked her to fight in a naval battle. Catherine had never looked at the sea more than once in her life. Moreover, after being baptized by previous wars, Catherine knew that she had no talent in leading troops. She was pampered by her teachers when she was studying. He made Catherine think that he was a qualified general.

In fact, she is just a beginner. She will be in a hurry if she leads more than a thousand troops.

“There's no way, even though you are a rookie, I haven't even entered the threshold.”

Amberxiu was also helpless. If he had other options, he would not let Catherine be the coach.

But there is really no one in the Dead Poets Society who can do it. Even Gareth, a tough guy, never learned to lead an army. When he was alive, he was a reckless man who followed orders and charged, so he was tricked and his head was chopped off. Come down.

Now that he has lost his head, there is even less possibility of leading troops.

The remaining big brothers, even,, have no members to learn how to lead troops.

Let alone commanding the army, they probably don't even understand the terminology in the battle plan.

The only person who is considered knowledgeable is Apoptotic Rose. The education she received when she was alive included this part of the foundation, but Apoptotic Rose could not make all the generals of the Three Kingdoms listen to her, and she could not command these proud soldiers.

Catherine suddenly said to Amber Xiu: "No, isn't Arthur Lane in your hands? Who is more suitable to be the commander-in-chief than this holy king? Arthur Lane was the most outstanding general in the war to overthrow the tyrant. Not only is he powerful personally, he is also very good at leading troops in battles, plus his own reputation..."

Amberxiu shook his head and said: "Don't think about it, Arthur won't help with this. If you ask him to overthrow the tyranny, he will rush to the front without frowning. But this war is a war between various races fighting for living space. Arthur is not interested in this kind of war. Even if he is forced to fight, the effect will not be very good.

“Besides, I don't want him to reveal his identity completely now. If he pretends to be someone else, it will take a long time for Arthur to get these generals to obey.”

Arthur Lane is indeed a very useful card, but it is also very restrictive. Amberxiu doesn't want to waste it until the critical moment.

Seeing that she could not find a substitute, Catherine had no choice but to agree.

Amber Xiu raised the issue of the drow route, and Catherine couldn't refuse.

“I have to make up for my classes now.” Catherine left this sentence, then closed the communication and ran to read a book.

Amberxiu is not worried. Catherine does not need to have much ability. Her biggest role is to sit there during meetings. When the group of people becomes noisy, Catherine can calm everyone down with a smile.

This move is invincible. Amber Xiu has a deep understanding of it. No one can resist it except chaotic and evil demons. The souls of the undead will be moved after looking at it for a long time.

After dealing with this problem, Amberxiu discussed with Ai Ge: "Now, it is time to solve the problem of military strength. How many members are there in the Silent Night Pirates? How many legends are there?"

Although Amber Xiu has acted with the Silent Night Pirates, he really doesn't know the specific number or the configuration of the troops.

Ai Ge believed in Amberxiu so much that he would not hide anything. He said frankly: "I'm not sure of the specific number of people, but we have a total of twelve ghost ships, most of which are newly converted and relatively weak. Really. There are three ghost ships with powerful combat capabilities. Apart from my body, there are only Phil's Iron Spear and Andil's Parrot. These two are legends. Have you seen Phil? Andil's The body is a ghost.

“Except for the ghost ship, the total number of undead on board is less than three thousand. However, this number fluctuates. Members will die at any time, and new members will join. Mainly ghosts, zombies and skeletons..."

Ai Ge carefully told Amber Xiu the details of the pirate group, and Amber Xiu felt more and more troubled the more he listened.

Ai Ge is a demigod with one foot on the threshold of the gods. There is no need to worry about her strength. Phil Amber has seen that she is a good fighter, but legends who like to charge into battle usually die the fastest.

Andiel has also been seen once. He seems to be a taciturn ghost, but he is at the opposite extreme from Phil.

High-end combat power is not a problem. The real problem is that the number of minions below is too small.

What use can three thousand undead have in this sea area of hundreds of thousands of square kilometers?

This is not a pirate game. There is no way to play guerrilla warfare. They need to occupy a large amount of territory and hold it firmly.

If the number of people is too small, even if the opponent flees, Ai Ge will not be able to occupy much space.

Ai Ge said helplessly: "I used to think that there were too many people. The pirate group didn't need so many members at all. I didn't expect that one day I would occupy such a huge sea area. Now the difference is dozens of times."

Amberxiu comforted him and said, "Don't worry, we have enough time. Moreover, we are undead, so we are worried that there will not be enough cannon fodder."

"Are you planning to create undead troops on a large scale? The consumption will probably be very high." Ai Ge asked.

Summoning skeletons is a necromancy spell that all high-level undead know. It may seem a bit shabby, but this spell is not that easy to cast. To summon three or five skeletons, just snap your fingers. Thirty to fifty skeletons require some effort. Three to five hundred skeletons often require the assistance of a magic circle.

But five thousand, fifty thousand?

This kind of thing can generally only be accumulated over time, and is almost impossible to complete in a short time. After all, magic power is limited.

Now, they need at least 100,000 ordinary undead to be barely qualified to launch a war. If they want to truly occupy the volcanic sea area, there is no need to consider millions of undead.

This is not land, there are no so-called dangerous mountains, and there is no such thing as "this road is closed".

The ubiquitous sea water is the gateway. It is impossible to draw a line of defense to block the enemy like on land. The sea has its own unique environment and requires corresponding tactics to match it, so the number of undead is far from enough.

Amber said confidently: "Of course I know the limitations of summoning the undead on a large scale, but we don't have to summon so many skeletons. Senior Ai Ge, I once published a paper, which talked about various forms. Alien skeletons, and the biggest feature of these alien skeletons is their savings.”

Amberxiu's tone was a little more proud. This was the work of his painstaking efforts. No undead in the world knew how to save materials and magic power better than him.

Ai Ge has not seen any of Amber Xiu's "works". She has only seen his silver-white mecha. She thought he was talking about an alchemy puppet. She couldn't help but feel heartbroken for him. How much would it cost?

Ai Ge has made up his mind. If he can really become a god, he must find a way to repay him.

"Okay, everyone get busy, Senior Ai Ge, your Silent Night Pirates Group is our most critical trump card. I suggest you integrate this pirate group carefully, at least before the war begins, you can confirm how much power everyone can exert. And I'm going to be away from you for a while, so let me deal with those cannon fodder undead.”

After Amberxiu said these words, he plunged into his personal space.

When the flow of time was adjusted, one day on the outside and one year on the inside, Amber Xiu started to get busy.

Before mass-producing the undead, you must first make a design draft.

Fortunately, Amberxiu took the time to think about this problem before going to sea, and had several plans at that time.

Ambrose piled a pile of parchment on the table and began to carefully examine each of his designs.

These drawings are all about "undead" that look like various marine creatures. Various bones are pieced together to form a shape that looks like a fish or a mechanical monster.

Amber Xiu has the means to create souls, so he can modify the appearance of the undead at will and simply pinch out a suitable soul with his bare hands.

Others cannot. Why do skeletons have mostly hands and feet? Because the soul of a living person is adapted to such a body. If you want to magically modify it, it is not impossible, but it requires a lot of time and cost.

Amberxiu touched his chin and said to himself: "Not only does the cost have to be low, but it also takes less time... Then we can only specialize rather than be omnipotent."

Amber Xiu picked out three drawings from the pile of information, and then began to immerse himself in them, holding a quill and constantly making modifications on the drawings.

When you work hard, time always flies by.

Amberxiu spent almost three months in his own private space before finalizing the drawings of the three undead arms.

“It's time to test.”

Amberxiu summoned a dozen mage hands to continuously deliver various materials to him. In just one minute, there was a small fish carved from wood in front of him.

Looks like a very crude children's toy, but the wagging tail shows that this work has a unique "vitality".

Amberxiu threw the small fish made of wood into a pool, and then put a live fish in it.

At first, the live fish and the wooden fish lived peacefully together in the pool. If you didn't look carefully, you would only think that the wooden fish was uglier, and there would be nothing strange about it.

But after Amberxiu snapped his fingers, the wooden fish turned its head and swam towards the live fish.

At first it was still moving forward slowly, but as Amberxiu gave the order again, two turbulent airflows appeared on the body of the wooden fish, pushing the body of the wooden fish forward rapidly.

After a muffled sound, the wooden fish directly crashed through the body of the living fish, and also smashed large cracks on the edge of the pool.

Amberxiu quickly fixed the time, then grabbed the wooden fish and inspected it carefully.

Obviously, the wood could not withstand such a powerful impact, and most of it had been shattered, exposing the small magic array structures in the body.
