This lich needs more money

"Well, miniaturized jet propulsion engines work better in water. Carving wood takes too much time, so let's make a simple metal shell, but two jet engines are still too wasteful. One is enough, and the power is already sufficient. There is no need to strengthen it. Add an air undead test tube... Just don't make it into a bionic form, because undead are particularly easy to be sensed by people anyway."

Amber Xiu kept modifying the drawings and soon got a new version of the undead army.

This is a streamlined machine with the simplest form. It is hard to say that it is a fish. It is more like a small torpedo with its own jet.

It is the size of a finger, with a micro jet magic circle as a propeller. It relies entirely on the slight swing of the tail fin to control the direction, and then there is space at the head of the torpedo to load alchemical bombs or other weapons.

Amber Xiu said to himself: "The cost of alchemical bombs is too high, and my air undead is more cost-effective."

The so-called air undead is a colorless and odorless poison that Amber Xiu made before. It is transformed from air into the nature of corpses, and then stuffed with a completely blank simulated soul.

This kind of undead has no thoughts, no mobility, and even no action functions, so the cost is very low. However, this kind of air undead can only be stored in a sealed container. Once it leaks, it will explode directly and become colorless and odorless "undead air".

Amber Xiu has tested that once a living organism directly inhales the undead air, it will be quickly eroded by dark magic. The power is more terrible than any known poison. The killing efficiency of alchemical bombs is not so high.

If this kind of air undead is placed in the head of this small torpedo and explodes directly after hitting the target, the poison will explode quickly and poison the target.

The only problem is that the body of the air undead is gas after all. At the moment of explosion, bubbles will form and float up. How many of these bubbles can be inhaled by the enemy?

Amber Xiu is a man of swift and decisive temperament. He immediately made an experiment to detonate the air undead in the water to see how many fish can be poisoned to death.

The final result did not satisfy him.

Air is difficult to dissolve in seawater, causing most of the air undead to turn into bubbles and float up. Very few can be inhaled in an instant, which makes the toxicity of air undead in water ten times worse than on land, from deadly poison to non-lethal poison that can only cause respiratory disorder and body spasms.

Amber Xiu felt a little sorry. He had made a lot of inventory before, but now it seems a bit useless.

"Or, I use seawater as the main body and make a seawater undead to try?"

Amber Xiu tested it and found that seawater undead can also be made, but the cost has increased significantly.

The gold coins given by the God of Alchemy cost money every time the properties are converted, and the higher the quality, the higher the price.

The density of air is small. If you want to fill a finger-sized glass ball, the cost of air undead is less than one copper coin, and it will cost more than 30 copper coins to convert it into seawater. It depends on the purity of the seawater. It seems that the things mixed in it are different, and the consumption when converting properties is also different.

"The price of the Sea Ghost is thirty copper coins, plus the price of the torpedo itself, which is more than one silver coin. No, it's still too high, unless we can save on materials." Amber decided to find Gustavo Flynn and let the old man help him produce the torpedo shell at cost price.

Not long ago, Amber ordered a batch of main parts for manufacturing micro jet engines from Gustavo Flynn. He didn't pay a penny, but Amber sold the improved micro jet engine drawings.

It's not that he doesn't want to keep it secret, but with Gustavo Flynn's ability, he can guess that it's almost right just by looking at those parts. This is not an innovative technology. It's just that Amber spent several years in private space to compress the volume.

It's very valuable, but the confidentiality level is really not high. Insiders can easily disassemble the principle.

Amber simply sold the drawings to this "old friend" and then paid for the parts. Now that the jet engine of the torpedo is available, he can just sell the torpedo shell design, which is not worth much, and then let his "old friend" make a batch for him.

Gustavo Flynn now has more than one alchemy factory. It is very simple to mass-produce such low-tech metal accessories. There is no need to open a new mold. Maybe he can find this streamlined metal shell mold.

Amber Xiu carefully calculated the account. In this way, the cost of each undead torpedo can be reduced to about 50 copper coins. A million gold coins will be enough to fight this war.

The first undead army was finalized, and Amber Xiu continued to be busy. It is not known whether the torpedo should be considered a long-range weapon or a close-range self-destructing weapon, but it is undoubtedly thrown away by the user from a distance, and can be used directly as a long-range army.

Then there are defensive undead arms, and real close-range undead arms.

Compared with undead torpedoes, these two are not cannon fodder, but regular troops, the kind that need to be used repeatedly.

Just as Amber Xiu excitedly entered the research state.

Deep in the sea, some people were also inspired and began to work hard for the volcanic sea.

Aiolos, who had been kidnapped by the Kuo-Toa goddess for a few days, was now beaming with joy. He was suspended on a huge coral and spoke passionately to a group of silly Kuo-Toa about the pre-war mobilization.

The lobster girl version of Ariel stood gently beside him, looking at him with eyes full of admiration.

Aiolos finally obeyed, because the reasons of the fish-man goddess Kouta were very convincing, and Talos did not object, which meant that Ariel was the one he was looking for.

So Aiolos chose to accept this reality without hesitation, and even boasted to the Kuo Tao mermaid goddess that he would use the entire volcanic sea as a "betrothal gift".

The goddess of Kuo Toa laughed loudly, and immediately said that she would hand over all the Kuo Toa under her command to him. The requirements were not high. As long as Aiolos could gain a foothold in the volcanic sea, he was not required to occupy the entire sea ​​area.

The goddess of the kuo-toa fish knew very well that she had taken advantage of a loophole to trick Talos' son into working for her. She didn't know which god's descendant she would meet later. With Aiolos' ability, she could help the kuo-toa fish. It is enough for people to find a new breeding area.

Perhaps it was time to get sick. At this time, the Kuo Tao fish-man goddess was terrifyingly calm.

He handed over all the information about the sea clan he had to Aiolos, and asked him to read it before leading the Kuo Tao fishmen to seize the territory.

Aiolos also read it carefully. As for how much he understood, I'm afraid no one knows.

But now it's the last moment. The Sharkfish have already entered the scene one step ahead, and the Yixi Manta Ray has found a breeding area and has begun to lay eggs and breed.

If the Kuo Tao fish people don't take action, all the good places will be robbed in a few days.

So, no matter what, let’s take a bite of the territory first.

Aiolos delivered an impassioned speech in the style of Talos, bluntly saying that the enemies ahead were just rotten fish and shrimps, and that he would lead all Kuo-Toa to victory.

But the effect didn't seem to be very good. These Kuo-Tao fishmen had been watching Aiolos' performance in silence. Some were gnawing their nails, some were picking their teeth with fish bones, and some were completely asleep and didn't listen at all.

Aiolos has never seen such outrageous subordinates. Are these fishmen's brains not working well? Who has the final say now?

If it were just a matter of stabbing the head, catching a few unconvinced ones and killing them would naturally frighten them.

But Aiolos discovered that they were not thorns in the face, or specifically against him, but that was what they were.

Kuo Tao fish people have very low IQs. After throwing away the instinct to eat, drink and relieve themselves, they only have the lazy idea of ​​lying down and resting. Occasionally, when they are nervous, they will do stupid things, such as feeding Kuo Tao. Apply some sea mud and insert some kelp on the statue of the fish-man goddess.

Aiolos's speech was so complicated for the Kuo Toa people that they didn't understand it at all, so they couldn't react at all.

Seeing that something was wrong, Aiolos thought for a moment and said: "Follow me and you will have fish to eat! If you don't do it with me, I will eat you!"

After shouting this simple and direct sentence, the Kuo Tao fish people immediately stood up and burst into laughter.

They held high various weird-looking weapons and shouted loudly in jumbled words.

The content is also very simple, just two meanings: "I want to eat! You can't eat me!"

Aiolos looked at the group of Kuo Tao fishmen who were getting excited with satisfaction, and finally felt a little satisfied in his heart. These were his first batch of subordinates. Stupid is a little stupid, but the number is huge, and the overall strength is not bad.

Kuo-Toa are idiots, but perhaps because their simplicity makes it easy for them to understand the power of blood inheritance, the proportion of warlocks among the Kuo-toa is very high, and many Kuo-toa have special bloodline spells.

One-tenth of the tens of thousands of Kuo Tao fishmen in front of them are spell casters. This ratio puts other sea tribes far behind.

As long as it is commanded properly, this will be a very powerful army.

And as long as Aiolos can win, he will be able to continue to capture other races and continue to increase his troops... Aiolos only feels that his eyes are bright.

Sure enough, he made the right choice to follow the Kuo Tao fish-man goddess. In just a few days, he went from being a loner to the leader of an army. Give him a few more years, and Aiolos will have the final say over the sea. .

Aiolos looked up at the gloomy sea water and prayed to Talos in his heart: "Great Father God, have you seen that I have controlled such a huge power. One day, I will take over this sea Dedicated to you, you will be proud of me when the time comes! Please wait patiently!”
