415 Chapter 322: The Powerful Fusion of Troop-Type–Stone Statue of the Dead, It’s a Big Deal [1/3]

The bandaged mummies of the nine units were a gift from the start, while Richard carefully selected the rest.

They all had great potential and outstanding merits.

Short-range cavalry, air force, spellcasters, archers, they had everything.

However, this did not mean Richard was satisfied with the current configuration of Twilight City.

After the battle test, he found that not all troops were as effective as he had thought.

There was still a lot of room for improvement and reinforcement.

They were like Giant Axe Death Knights.

This cavalryman with a giant battle axe was sturdy.

However, the contribution of this troop type was low even though it had led troops in so many battles.

What did cavalrymen need? Charge!

It smashed all the enemies in front of it.

The battle style of Twilight City had always been to use their superior firepower to suppress the enemy. And then annihilate them when they had the absolute advantage.

Such tactics were carried out thoroughly with the help of the undead soldiers of Axe of the Dead and the sand condensation archers, in addition to the cooperation of the air force.

This put the Giant Axe Death Knight in an awkward position.

If it charged at the very beginning, it would undoubtedly cause great damage to himself.

However, it would make no difference if they attacked later.

Also, after getting used to the mobility of the flying units, the Giant Axe Death Knight’s inability to maneuver over long distances undoubtedly lowered Richard’s opinion of them.

The other units that didn’t have a high sense of existence had a similar problem.

Richard thought for a moment, then sighed.

“It’s a long way to go.

“I’ll have to adjust my thoughts in the future. What I need to change the most is the configuration of the troop. I have to make the structure of the entire troop more in line with the battle style of Twilight City.

“Secondly, we need to improve our tactics and use all the troops. We can’t just develop the air force.

“If we rely too much on a single unit, the consequences will be fatal if an accident happens.”

In the dungeon, the sky arena’s no-fly restriction had put Twilight City in an awkward position.

After a long while, Richard finally focused on his favorite troop type. The Axe of the Dead.

Since the birth of this powerful troop, they had firmly occupied the top position of Twilight City with their explosive battle power.

One cannot push Axe of the Dead down even with the appearance of the skeleton blood dragon.

However, as the enemies that Twilight City faced became increasingly more robust, it exposed the weakness of this troop type.

Its low mobility and short attack range were all flaws that one could not ignore.

His first choice for the fusion of troops was the Axe of the Dead.

But what kind of troop could be matched with the Axe of the Dead?

Richard’s eyes shifted to the Dark Gargoyle lair.

Similarly, after Richard obtained the Dark Gargoyle lair from the single-player dungeon, this unit initially became the main force, but unknowingly became a mount.

This also explained many problems.

They were strong in a close battle, but Richard wouldn’t launch the first attack against a powerful enemy.

This was because it would often cause additional losses.

He had always liked to use the least effort to exchange for the greatest results.

The dark gargoyles’ strengths are their agility and strong defense. Especially their immunity to magic, which makes this troop class even more valuable.

“Its weakness is its short arms, so it can only fight in close combat.”

The strength of the undead soldiers of the Axe of the Dead lies in its terrifying destructive power. Its area-of-effect skill, Tomahawk Smash, makes it a well-deserved violent troop.

“Its weakness is its short range, slow movement, and average survival ability.

“If I can combine these two types of troops …”

Richard took a closer look at the properties of the crystal with that in mind.

Fusion crystal–can fuse two types of troops. After fusion, it will be solidified into a territory characteristic, which can retain the features of the two troops and be strengthened.

After a successful fusion, you can spend rare resources to fuse all the similar soldier-type lairs in your territory.

[Restriction: 1. Extremely high chance of failure when fusing soldiers from different camps]

[2. The troops integrated must be of the same level and potential.]

[3. The fusion process is irreversible.]

Richard decided without hesitation.

Out of all the military units, these two were the most suitable.

With a thought.

The system’s notification quietly rang.

[Ding~ You have chosen a dead stone statue and a dark stone gargoyle. Do you want to use the fusion crystal to merge the two?]

“I’m sure.”

The moment he made his choice…

The fusion crystal in his hand suddenly shattered and turned into a bright light that merged into the two troop lairs in front of him.

The two adjacent troop-type lairs emitted a blinding white light in the next second.

The already dark sky seemed to have two suns that rose.

A brilliant light erupted.

The two lairs were like candles where a flame pressed them and began to melt under the power of the fusion crystal.

Richard observed the situation closely. The two melted lairs slowly flowed and intertwined with each other. They turned into a squirming jelly.

A few minutes later, the troop-type lair had wholly merged into one. The molten energy slowly condensed into a new troop-type lair.

It was a house made of stone, about six meters tall.

Sharp battle tomahawks filled the walls outside the stone house, just like the wooden cabin with tomahawks.

If one looked carefully, one could vaguely see a ferocious gargoyle’s shadow carved on the wall filled with tomahawks.
