Chapter 17: Altar of the Kings

The baggage train stopped in front of the hotel in the small town.

With the help of the inn waiter, Omar parked the carriage in the stable behind the inn, and Varokar took the five guards to the church in the town to find a priest to treat the injuries of the five people.

Seeing that he had nothing to do, Jialin asked the innkeeper to prepare three of the best rooms for him and food for eight people, and then he chose the middle room.

He walked into the room, found the study, sat down, pulled out a piece of parchment, picked up a quill pen, dipped it in ink, and began to write.

Danas:

My beloved cousin. I encountered a troll hunting party while traveling in the southern part of Arathi Highlands. My guards and I wiped them out.

I found that they were collecting spider venom sacs in large quantities. As a member of Trollbane, you must have read in the library about the use of venom sacs collected by the Witherbark Tribe.

The hunting team I annihilated included a seventh-level warrior and a seventh-level peak witch doctor. This level of strength has already entered the ruling class among the trolls.

The trolls' annual sacrifice is coming soon. I guess the Witherwood Tribe will make a big move this time. You must be vigilant and guard against the trolls attacking villages and looting civilians for living sacrifices.

Although this trip was short, I benefited a lot from fighting with trolls of the same level.

I am resting in Three Forks now, and then I will return to Stromgarde. I will beg my father to let me form an army. As a Trollbane, I hope to join the army as soon as possible to defend the glory of Trollbane and protect the people.

Sincerely,

After finishing writing, Garin let out a long sigh, rolled up the parchment and tied it with a ribbon, took out the sealing wax and heated it slightly over the flame of a candle next to it, then stuck it on the seam of the parchment, took out his ring and printed it on the sealing wax, and a Trollbane family emblem was printed on the sealing wax.

After doing all this, Garin leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes to rest. After a while, he connected his mind to the Heart of Origin and turned his attention to the base.

The base was brightly lit at night. Eight or nine hours had passed since the start of the journey at noon, and the population of the base had increased significantly. The newly trained farmers were assigned tasks under Cliff's arrangement.

Farmers' work can be roughly divided into four categories.

The first type is to stay at each farm to harvest wheat and then process it in the farm's own small mill. Jialin observes the base almost every day, so he has a general understanding of the working mode of the farmers on the farm.

After the farm is built, there will be a batch of mature magic wheat in the farmland. After a farmer is stationed there, he will immediately start harvesting the wheat, and then continue to sow new seeds, transport water for irrigation every day, and remove insects and weeds after irrigation. Because the land has constant fertility, there is no need to apply fertilizer. During this period, the farmer will go to the small mill to process the harvested wheat. After ten days, the wheat will mature, and then a new round of harvesting and sowing will begin.

The second category is relatively simple. They are farmers who are chosen by Garin to build new buildings. They will put down their current work and prioritize construction until the building is completed and becomes idle again.

The above two categories are not under Cliff's command. The remaining two types of work are mining and logging. At present, due to Garin's previous recharge behavior, the amount of gold is large and timber resources are scarce, so there are more lumberjacks than people in the mine.

Six new infantrymen came out of the barracks and joined the patrol. The two teams that patrolled during the day were resting in the barracks and would need to take turns to relieve each other at night.

Turning his mental focus to look at the other side, he discovered that the Altar of Kings had been completed. Garin was excited. This was a building that could train heroes. Each of them had the potential to become a tenth-level legend. Moreover, with them, the base's troops would have someone to command.

Altar of Kings: can summon new heroes and revive fallen heroes. Can provide powerful power to the host.

When deploying the Altar of Kings before, Garin had read the introduction of this building. He understood that it could summon and revive heroes, just like in the game. It should be able to summon four heroes: Archmage, Paladin, Blood Mage, and Hill King. But what did it mean to provide the host with powerful strength?

With this doubt in mind, I finally waited until the Altar of the Kings was completed so that I could find out what it was like.

The Altar of the Kings is built entirely of huge white marble. It is basically a platform with dozens of huge stone steps. On the platform stands a giant stone statue with a sword in both hands, and on the left and right of the giant stands two Roman columns guarding it.

Garin also didn't know how the Heart of Origin managed to build a marble building with 1800 units of gold and 500 units of wood. He couldn't ask, because asking was the power of God.

Cast your spirit towards the Altar of Kings and connect to the subsystem of the Heart of Origin inside the altar. The panel of the altar will appear, with two figures on it.

Archmage

Hero type: Intelligence hero, proficient in frost magic

Talent skills: blizzard, water element, brilliant aura, group teleportation

Hero upgrade: Level 7-10 (based on host strength)

Summoning time: five days

Paladin

Hero type: Strength hero, devout holy light user

Talent skills: Holy Light, Holy Shield, Pious Aura, Resurrection

Hero upgrade: Level 7-10 (based on host strength)

Summoning time: five days

These four lights and shadows are the first interface of the Altar of Kings. Although there are only two heroes at present, Garin is still quite excited.

When he saw that the Altar of Kings had a second page, he was even more excited. He had previously guessed that the function of the Altar of Kings was not just to summon heroes, and he was right.

With excitement, I turned to the second interface. Two skills appeared and I put my mental strength into them.

Power of Kings: Absorbs the soul power of powerful creatures, with a certain chance of transforming into altar heroes.

The Kingly Way:

passive

You can have one thousandth of the power bonus of your people.

Requirements: Rule a city with a population of over 10,000, and you will become the king (secondary main city unlocked)

Call of the King:

Instant.

As a king, you can summon the power of every powerful being that has ever appeared on your planet (unlocked in the third-level castle)

Duration: 120 seconds (renewable)

Cost: Gold per unit, Wood per unit

What amazing news! The three skills on the second page are like winning a 50 million jackpot, making Jialin feel so happy from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

The first skill should be used to supplement the original multiple heroes in the Altar of Kings.

Needless to say, the second skill means that the more people under your command, the stronger your power will be. I just don't know whether the people here refer to the population trained in the base, or include the native population of Azeroth, or even include intelligent races other than humans.

I'll have to try this myself later.

In Garin's opinion, the third skill is just a cheat.

The powerful beings that have appeared on this planet, Azeroth, is a planet transformed by Titans. It has been visited by Titans, and Azeroth is known to have the strongest Titans since birth. Even if Azeroth and the Titans are not counted, there are still powerful beings such as Titan Guardians, Odin, Raden, and Tyr.

There are also a group of wilderness demigods and the four elemental lords, all of whom have strength far beyond the legendary level.

Compared to gaining the power of these powerful creatures, ten thousand units of gold and ten thousand units of wood seem so worthwhile.
