Chapter 603 - 568: Amphibious Forces of Sea, Land, and Air
Da Fei immediately rowed back to the waiting Flying on the shore.
A group of people once again entered the long-missed Banshee Camp. A faint scent mingled with sulfur hit their faces. At this moment, Deirdre was in the camp, using Puppet Master Magic to control a group of banshees moving around, as she painstakingly practiced magic trying to reach the Grandmaster level.
Da Fei did not disturb her but watched how she controlled and practiced. After a while, the group of banshees finally lost control and stopped.
— System Prompt: Your Vice Hero Deirdre has obtained information on Grandmaster-level Dark Magic.
So there’s information now!? It seems this is the advantage of having "Makar’s Master Dark Magic Insights." As long as one continuously receives information, the elusive Grandmaster level, which could theoretically be likened to mining or forging lifestyle skills, can be achieved through relentless practice and proficiency improvement.
Now, Deirdre immediately came forward with a smile and said, "Master, I was just practicing, please forgive my inadequate reception!"
This is truly a wise and charming wife! Da Fei laughed heartily: "No need to be formal with me, I came to ask you to study this Sea Soul Staff and the Sea Demon Demon Souls inside it, to see if you could summon these Demon Souls?"
Selvia then handed over the Sea Soul Staff and explained: "A few days ago, the Sea Soul Staff absorbed the souls of over five hundred banshees from the enemy’s city walls, and now it has fused 11 Sea Demon Demon Souls."
"Sea Demon Demon Souls?" Deirdre exclaimed in surprise as she took the Sea Soul Staff, suddenly startled: "It’s unimaginable, the souls of my Banshee Race have transformed into this form! This is a refinement of souls, even purer than the usual Banshee Souls!"
There’s hope! Da Fei excitedly said: "Can they be summoned?"
Deirdre nodded: "I can try the method used to summon ordinary banshees. My Banshee Race is different from other demons, banshees are Spiritual Bodies, summoning them to the material world requires the Summoner to expend a lot of Mana for their materialization, and because banshees are Spiritual Bodies, they possess the ability to change their form. Although I don’t have enough Mana to summon such pure Demon Souls, the Sea Soul Staff has stored a large amount of Mana, so this summoning must utilize the Mana from the Sea Soul Staff."
Da Fei joyfully said: "No problem! Just use it, the Sea Soul Staff has more Mana than it can handle anyway!"
Deirdre solemnly said: "Alright Master, I will give it my all!"
Having said this, Deirdre stood in the center of the room’s Summoning Array holding the Sea Soul Staff and started to activate the Array, the Array’s red light grew intense, and the Sea Soul Staff flashed blue. Soon after, a pink mist slowly drifted out from the Sea Soul Staff, then gradually gathered together, becoming denser.
Da Fei suddenly felt elated! There’s hope! Isn’t this just like the scene where Bloodrose Rosa and the other ladies summoned Deirdre in the Monastery? I remember back then those ladies ran out of Mana halfway through the summoning, and it was Selvia who helped out, causing a big blunder.
Now, under Deirdre’s continuous spellcasting, the dense mist gradually gathered and transformed into a liquid state, then condensed into a transparent humanoid shape, and continued to solidify until finally, the Sea Soul Staff shone a bright blue light, and a naked Banshee with silver hair, blue eyes, and light blue skin with transparent wings on her back made a dazzling entrance!
——System Prompt: Your Vice Hero Deirdre has successfully summoned a low-level Demon Soul Sea Demon by using 1000 Mana from the Sea Soul Staff.
Success! The crowd cheered! Overjoyed, Da Fei immediately checked the attributes of the Sea Demon:
——Demon Soul Sea Demon: Small-sized Spiritual Creature, Attack 40, Defense 35, Damage 35-60, Health 480, Attack Speed 13, Magic Resistance 50%, Mana Value 100, Command Value 15, Special Skill: Flying Creature, Ocean Creatures, Charming Technique, Chain Shooting.
Da Fei was taken aback, so this is a Demon Soul Sea Demon? Attributes of level 7 troops, with both Flying Creature and Ocean Creature characteristics, this is truly a amphibious troop type for air, sea, and land! Damn, I’m not lacking an Air Force or an Army, but I really need a Navy!
At this time, Deirdre smiled and said, "Master, I have accomplished my mission and successfully summoned this Banshee Race that I have never seen before."
Da Fei excitedly asked, "How would you evaluate this new race?"
As Deirdre was stroking the smooth skin of the Demon Soul Sea Demon, she couldn’t stop praising, "I heard that Ocean Creatures have far superior attack, defense, and health advantages over land and flying creatures. This is clearly reflected in the attributes of this Sea Demon, and this is just a low-level Sea Demon, but its attributes have already surpassed when I was at Leader-level Banshee, incredible! She completely compensates for the inherent weaknesses of the Banshee Race, a true product of merging 50 ordinary Banshee souls!"
Da Fei, nodding repeatedly in excitement, suddenly remembered that this Sea Demon required 50 ordinary Banshees to merge? My goodness, this cost-effectiveness is really low, in terms of combat power, 50 ordinary Banshees would totally outperform one Demon Soul Sea Demon.
That is to say, if his ordinary Banshee troops die, should he use Dark Resurrection Skill to revive them? Or use the Sea Soul Staff to absorb them? This really is a dilemma. Of course, there’s no dilemma if he absorbs the Banshees of fallen enemies. Damn! No need to hesitate, Banshees can be replaced by Secret Archers, but no one can replace the aquatic war creatures! No more words needed, whenever my ordinary Banshees die, transform all into Sea Demons!
Wait! It seems that for every Cannon Emperor that dies, one could become a Sea Demon, but the attributes of the Sea Demon are much higher than those of the Cannon Emperor, it makes more sense to convert Cannon Emperors into Sea Demons! The question is, does the Cannon Emperor still retain its cannon skills after becoming a Sea Demon?
The key is, looking at this silly and dumb Sea Demon, indistinguishable from ordinary troop types, Da Fei couldn’t help but feel a chill! How could I bear to turn my lively, lovely, sexy, flirtatious, intelligent elite Cannon Emperors raised from scratch into this? Absolutely not, even if the Cannon Emperors face an irresistible devastating blow, I’d rather choose to resurrect them! Even if I’m not satisfied with the attributes of the Cannon Emperors, I’ll just train them over time.
Just then, Deirdre suddenly spoke seriously: "I’m so envious, I wonder how much improvement I would gain if I transformed into this form."
Damn! What a topic to bring up, Da Fei was taken aback, "That’s impossible, you are a hero!"
Deirdre shook her head and smiled, "Sorry to worry you, Master. However, Master, I can’t determine if this Sea Demon is in its final state, maybe Master’s Master-level Special Soldier Training Skill can train them?"
Da Fei’s brow jumped, that’s right, my Master-level Special Soldier Training Skill that’s been idle for years, since it’s idle, let’s give it a try. But still the same old training routine as before, summon more and have them stand in a row for rotational training, this way we can effectively utilize their stamina! (To be continued.
