Chapter 304: Chapter 238: Six-Star Military Class! The first ordinary soldier class to become a hero!

Three architectural blueprints, two for defense buildings and one for a barracks building.

In addition to these three spoils of war, there are also plenty of life crystals, space crystals, etc., enough for Zheng Cheng to recruit a large number of troops.

It’s a pity that LV6 Home Crystal can only recruit up to six-star troop types.

[Name: Scout Guard Production Base]

[Attribute: Defense Building]

[Host: Zheng Cheng]

[Rank: LV1]

[Skill 1: Produce Scout Guards, consume 10 units of space crystals, 50 units of wood, and 100 units of iron ore to create a Scout Guard. Placing Scout Guards can monitor any movement within a square kilometer radius. Once an enemy is detected, an alert can be triggered. (Maximum 10 Scout Guards can be built per day)]

[Endurance: 100/100]

[Prompt: Need 20 units of iron ore, 20 units of wood, 20 units of space crystals to upgrade to LV2.]

“Scout Guard?” Zheng Cheng was surprised: “This building is very useful, producing Scout Guards in batches could monitor the entire home and the surrounding environment.”

“Can it be upgraded?”

Zheng Cheng waved his hand and said, “Upgrade! Upgrade the Scout Guard Production Base to LV6!”

Accompanied by his command, the blueprint of Scout Guard Production Base immediately turned into a ray of light and dispersed.

At the back of the hall, a building slowly took shape.

Once the level building is completed, resources can be directly consumed for upgrades.

I wonder what new effects the LV6 Scout Guard Production Base would have?

The second defense building!

[Name: Pillar of Life]

[Attribute: Defense Building]

[Host: Zheng Cheng]

[Rank: LV1]

[Skill 1: Life Conversion. The corpse of an Alien Beast can be placed around the Pillar of Life. The Pillar of Life can absorb its life force and emit a healing light to heal Human Race troops within a ten-square-meter range.]

[Endurance: 100/100]

[Prompt: Need 20 units of iron ore, 20 units of wood, 100 units of life crystals, 100 units of space crystals, can be upgraded to LV2.]

“Huh?”

After seeing this building, Zheng Cheng’s tone changed.

“Pillar of Life? Isn’t this a spring? But it needs to consume Alien Beast’s fresh blood to replenish life energy…”

“Build!”

He immediately ordered, “After the construction, consume resources to upgrade! Upgrade it to LV6 at the fastest speed!”

“Shadell, good job!”

Shadell also excitedly said, “Master, there is also this barracks building blueprint, which I found on the body of that giant Canira Jaw Bee.”

“This type of soldier, even in our Desolate World, is very rare!”

“Is it?”

Zheng Cheng picked up the barracks building blueprint curiously, his eyes lighting up instantly.

It was actually…

Earth Dragon Knight Squad!

[Name: Earth Dragon Knight Squad]

[Attribute: Barracks Building]

[Star level: 6-star level]

[Building Time: 6 hours]

[Effect: Upon use, a barracks building known as Earth Dragon Knights can be built, which can train six-star level troops called Earth Dragon Knights.]

[Required Resources: 4500 Iron Ore, 2500 Wood]

[Description: Earth Dragon Knights, a 6-star level troop type, ground-based, heavy cavalry. Each consumes 50 units of iron blocks, 12 units of life crystals for training. Can recruit Earth Dragons, fully equipped with heavy armor, equipped with iron swords, heavy hammers, long spears and other weapons, extremely strong in close combat. Meanwhile, Earth Dragons consume 2 units of life crystals daily or an equivalent weight of meat.]

[Requirements: Trainable troops must be close-combat and cavalry troops such as swordsmen, spearmen, and mobile cavalry, with personal attribute strength no less than 60, and constitution no less than 60.]

[Limit: This unit is a special unit, limited to recruiting 400 units.]

“Earth Dragon?”

Zheng Cheng curiously asked, “There are many types of Earth Dragons, what about this Earth Dragon Knight Squad?”

Baker replied, “Master, there are roughly three species of Earth Dragons in the Desolate World. The first is the Earth-Submerging Sand Dragon with its natural abilities to burrow and control flowing sand.”

“The second type is the Silverback Ironclad Dragon, bearing silver scales as strong as armor, its tusks can even tear steel, but it’s not very fast, and its stamina is not very good.”

“The third type is the Raptor, its hind legs are developed, its explosive power is very strong, it is very fast, and its front claws and tusks are extremely sharp, often used as a sneak attack team or used for special missions.”

“Three types, huh…”

Zheng Cheng muttered to himself, and then built it next to the Griffin Cage.

Compared with the Griffin Cage, the number of Earth Dragon Knight Squads is not very large, but their importance is above that of the Griffin Knights.

“It’s a pity, only four hundred units can be recruited, which is still too few.”

Baker smiled bitterly, “Master, there aren’t too many Earth Dragons in our entire Desolate World… and the Griffin Cage, Griffins are a gregarious species with many numbers, but there’s a limit.”

“The LV6 Home Crystal has a population limit of three thousand people, and you can only recruit up to six-star troops.”

“I heard that the Home Crystal at the top of Black Tower Mountain has as high as LV9 level….”

“LV9?”

Zheng Cheng’s eyes flashed, “How is that possible?”

“Doesn’t an LV9 Home Crystal create the opportunity to recruit nine-star troops?”

“Correct.”

Baker nodded, “Nine-star troops… Dragon Knights! Sword Saints! Sorcerer Scholars…”

“It’s a pity… the number of nine-star troops in our entire Desolate World is less than ten. Even if recruited, it would be like a drop in the ocean.”

Zheng Cheng’s eyes moved, “Baker, are you advising me not to activate that Home Crystal?”

With a ‘thud’, Baker knelt down at Zheng Cheng’s feet at once.

“Master… if you activate that LV9 Home Crystal, the channel between our Desolate World and the Alien Beast Star Planet will completely open.”

“With the strength of our world, we cannot possibly compete with the Alien Beasts.”

“Please…”

Zheng Cheng was silent and didn’t speak, but instead looked at Shadell.

“Shadell, what do you think?”

Shadell’s face was full of sorrow, “Master…, I, I am also from the Desolate World, my home, my parents, and the pet I raised are all in the Canglan Desert…”

“However!”

Her tone shifted as she said, “I believe in you, my lord! I will support everything you do…”

Zheng Cheng smiled and gently tousled her hair, “Baker, please stand up.”

“I will activate the Home Crystal.”

“My lord…”

“But rest assured, I have a way to prevent the Alien Beasts from entering the Desolate World.”

“Really? My lord!”

The two of them looked at him with surprise and delight, especially Sadie, whose beautiful eyes were filled with tears as she fixed her unblinking gaze on Zheng Cheng.

“Have I ever lied to you?”

Zheng Cheng counter-questioned, “Alright, stop crying, others might think I’ve wronged you.”

“My lord!”

“Greetings, my lord!”

A few figures hurried over, it was Zhang San, Niu Jindao and the others who had been summoned here earlier.

Sadie quickly turned away and wiped away her tears, but her eyes were still a little red.

Zheng Cheng looked around, most of his team leaders were present.

They were elites in their respective forces, especially after being buoyed up by plenty of special food, their attributes and attributes and strength had soared.

“Hmm? Where are Chen Zhong and Feng Cang?”

“My lord…”

The light cavalry captain, Ma Lie, spoke in a melancholic tone, “Chen Zhong and Feng Cang… have fallen in battle!”

“Fallen in battle?”

Zheng Cheng sighed, “A clay pot will break sooner or later, and generals will inevitably die in battle…”

But the comrades in arms who had fought alongside him were gone, even if they were just his recruited soldiers, he felt somewhat saddened.

Chen Zhong and Feng Cang had both been promoted to martial art soldiers, both powerful in close combat and defense.

Plus, they even had his Penicillin Parasite Body Shield defending them, their death only proved they were incredibly valiant.

“Retrieve their bodies and bury them with due respect!”

“Yes, my lord!”

He led the group towards the Hero Altar and said, “This construction is known as the Hero Altar, it can turn you into heroes!”

A simple statement from Zheng Cheng ignited an eager spark in the eyes of the few present.

Zhang San, Niu Jindao, Li Youji, Yang Hou’er, Ma Lie, and Baker.

All of them were team leaders of their respective forces, and all were elite soldiers.

Baker in particular, the leader of the court mage group and a member of the Royal Family.

With broad knowledge, strong power, and profound scholarship, he was the most qualified to become a hero!

Zheng Cheng placed his hand on the Hero Altar and quickly obtained the current tally of six-star Alien Beast souls absorbed.

“Over eleven thousand points…”

“Ten thousand units of six-star Alien Beast souls can only recruit one six-star hero.”

“But with the Hero Altar, I only need five thousand units of six-star Alien Beast souls to allow a regular soldier who meets the attribute criteria to change their class into a six-star hero!”

“Compared to recruiting, changing class certainly gets more bang for the buck!”

Zheng Cheng turned around and declared, “To reward your merits and loyalty, the Hero Altar is open to you. As long as you have enough merit, you can become a hero!”

“Currently, there are more than eleven thousand points of Alien Beast souls accumulated in the Hero Altar, which means two of the six of you can change your class to become heroes…”

Listening to Zheng Cheng’s words, the breathing of the six became quicker.

Especially Baker.

Being of royal blood and one of the rare mages, he, of course, knew about the importance of becoming a hero.

All his life, he was just an ordinary Grandmage.

If he could become a hero…

“Sadie!”

“My lord! I’m here!”

“You shall calculate their merits, then announce it.”

“Yes!”

Sadie took a step forward and said, “Based on the merits and strength of the six of you, the first to be chosen to change their class and become a hero are…”

She paused briefly, then the first name rolled off her tongue.

“Zhang San!”

What?

Zhang San, who was the first to be recruited and came from lowly beginnings, was stunned for a moment before his face lit up with joy. He almost collapsed to the ground from the excitement.

He was just a laborer!

Under normal circumstances, he would just spend his life as a laborer chopping wood, mining, or moving corpses.

To his surprise, under his lord’s command, he not only got the chance to eat so many precious special foods, he even became the formidable five-star class of martial art soldier.

And now…

He was about to change his class to become a hero!

He fell to his knees in front of Zheng Cheng, banging his head against the ground repeatedly.

“My lord! Thank you, my lord! Thank you, my lord!”

“From this day forward, my life is yours, my lord. I will not hesitate in doing whatever you command me to!”

“My lord… *sob* *sob*…”

Zhang San was just an ordinary laborer and could hardly recognize a few big characters.

These were all the words he could think of at the moment.

But right now, he saw Zheng Cheng as the heavens!

A true savior!

Zheng Cheng chuckled, “Get up, Zhang San. You deserve this.”

Zhang San had been with him the longest and maybe didn’t have the experience and depth of the others.

But, he was incredibly dedicated.

Every task Zheng Cheng issued, he faithfully carried out.

Whether cutting trees, moving corpses, or battling Alien Beasts, he was always the first to charge in, never complaining about anything.

For the first opportunity to become a hero, he had no objections!

“Go ahead.”

At Zheng Cheng’s command, under the envious and jealous eyes of the rest, Zhang San tremblingly entered the Hero Altar!
