Chapter 1044: Chapter 377: The Swordsman Army and the ’Noble’ Delivered to Our Door
When the light dissipated, those longswords disappeared along with it.
Ninety-nine swordsmen, all dressed in uniform azure light armor, with a cape around their necks and longswords at their waists, appeared before Cao Xing.
"Star Country Knight: Ling/Han/Feng... reports to you!"
Cao Xing chuckled inwardly; the names of these swordsmen were quite interesting,
each just one character, which made them easy to remember.
He stepped forward and solemnly said, "Welcome, swordsmen from the Star Country."
"I am the Lord of this territory, let us once again raise our weapons and fight courageously."
On the field, these swordsmen all turned their gaze towards Cao Xing, their eyes filled with admiration.
One of the Star Country Knights said, "Our new Lord, you have great power."
"I can feel the magic within you, deep and vast like an iceberg."
"This must be a land rich in martial prowess."
Cao Xing laughed, "In our territory, there are indeed many strong individuals."
"From now on, you will uniformly be under Xiao’s command."
At that moment, Xiao, wielding the [Divine Shadow Sword], stepped forward.
Upon seeing Xiao’s demeanor and the powerful aura he exuded, all the swordsmen were astonished.
They seemed not to have expected to see another Star Country Knight here, especially one so powerful.
Immediately they respectfully said, "Greetings, Great Swordsman!"
In their Star Country, there are unique title levels.
A person like Xiao, who possesses fifth-rank leader-level strength, is called a Great Swordsman.
If he breaks through to the sixth tier, he will be a Great Sword Master.
Xiao waved his hand, "No need to salute me, just execute the Lord’s orders."
"In the future, I will lead you in battle together."
The swordsmen glanced at each other and respectfully said, "Understood, with the sword in our hands, we will defend this territory!"
And Cao Xing also glanced at the skills of these swordsmen.
[Star Country Knight: Feng]
[Race: Human Clan]
[Level: 27 (third-tier ordinary creature)]
[Life Value: 15744/15744 (Blessing of the Pale Tree)]
[Attack Power: 744~758]
[Armor: 211~226]
[Attribute: Power 235, Agility 273, Spirit 214, Constitution 244]
[Skill: Intermediate Swordsmanship Mastery, Eagle Falling Slash.]
(Note: Eagle Falling Slash will reduce the armor of hit enemies by Agility * 0.3, this status can stack up to 3 times)
[Legion Skills: Star Country Sword Formation (All Star Country Knights throw their weapons, which float at different positions in the air, forming a large sword formation with a maximum diameter of 500 meters, reducing the move speed of all enemies inside the sword formation by 50%;
Afterward, the strongest swordsman in the legion jumps into the air, holding their weapon to perform consecutive 100 high-speed slashes against enemies inside the sword formation! The damage coefficient varies with the attack power of each weapon, cool down time: 1 hour)]
(Note: This skill must be completed by 100 knights simultaneously, with at least one leader-level swordsman required to finish the high-speed slashing action. The more participating knights, the more the slashes will continue to increase, up to a maximum of 500.)
(Note 2: During the release of the sword formation, the other swordsmen are unable to act, and after the slashing action is completed, the swordsman leader will fall into a temporary state of weakness due to large physical consumption.)
[Talent: None]
[Bonds: Star Country Knight (100 people activated)]
[Satiety: 62]
[Loyalty: 67]
...
...
"Wow... a hundred times high-speed slashes, that’s unbelievable?"
Cao Xing was instantly amazed!
This was the highest multi-stage damage skill he had ever seen.
Although due to space reasons, each slash would only cover enemies in a line, so not everything inside would take a hundred hits.
But if it’s against something like the Zhuoma Giant Beast, a large BOSS, that’s different!
Those hundred slashes would be solid damage.
Cao Xing exclaimed, "No wonder it’s an advanced soldier type, this legion skill is terrifying!"
"You could say that any legion, if able to form a Star Country Knight team of a hundred, would see a huge boost in damage when fighting the Zhuoma Giant Beast, potentially aiming for first place!"
Of course, getting first isn’t that simple.
The system notes also say that besides the 99 ordinary Star Country Knights, a leader-level swordsman is needed to complete the slashing action.
This task has stumped many people.
Currently, it seems only Cao Xing meets this condition.
Cao Xing marveled, "The attributes of these swordsmen are really good."
However, applying single BUFFs to all of these ninety-nine newcomers is no small task.
"It’s a pity there isn’t an item that transforms single skills into group ones or something that reduces the cool down of single BUFFs..."
But clearly, such an item would be extremely rare.
At least he hasn’t seen one yet.
He shook his head and said, "Xiao, take them to familiarize themselves with the territory."
"Then go to the training ground and get familiar with teamwork."
"Understood."
With that, the swordsman led the newly formed Star Country Knight Army away from here.
Once again, only Cao Xing was left here alone.
He intended to go to the tavern and check on the few destitute nobles that Cao Yi had mentioned.
However, he found it odd that the centaurs he had sent out hadn’t returned yet.
"Are there so many monsters in that stone cave? It’s been a day and they’re still not done?"
So he held down the communication device on his ear and asked, "Kandar, is there something wrong on your side?"
"Szzz... szzz..."
Moments later, Kandar’s rough voice sounded.
"Returning to the Lord, we haven’t encountered any issues."
