Chapter 1061 - 584: Armor Wall Improvement Technology, Paralyzing Vine Seed

Passive Skills: Scatter Shot (Every 10 ordinary shells fired, a magic energy scatter shot can be launched, splitting into 10 sub-shells before landing, each with an explosion range of six meters in radius, and damage equating to 0.65 times the explosion damage)

Armor Piercing Bullet (Every 15 ordinary shells fired, a magic energy armor-piercing bullet can be launched, reducing the explosion range to a radius of ten meters; it inflicts an armor-piercing effect on enemies within the range, reducing Armor Value by 20 points, lasting for 5 minutes)

Elevation Mode (Crewman can enter Elevation Mode, observing the battlefield from a near-range bird’s eye view between 100 meters to 3500 meters, with the perspective appearing larger at close range than at a distance, requiring some aiming prediction)

Note: Explosion Damage affects all, friend and foe alike.

(The Fourth Generation Magic Energy Cannon, a siege defense weapon, when strategically deployed can effectively damage clusters of enemies)

Zong Shen thought of the [Tier Four Magical Energy Fire Cannon Tower] upon seeing the attributes of this Magic Energy Cannon.

The attributes of both are very similar.

The main difference is that the special shells fired by the Magic Energy Cannon as defense equipment are different, and the magic energy reserve limit is also different.

Additionally, the observation perspectives in Elevation Mode and Crewman Mode are different.

Crewman Mode is akin to a castrated version of a god’s perspective.

While the observation point in Elevation Mode remains in place, it is akin to observing from a higher altitude.

It’s certainly more robust than a Siege Crossbow.

Even if magic energy is required for each attack, it’s still very worthwhile.

The crossbow mechanism, stone-throwing vehicle, and beaten wood rolling stone account for more traditional types of defense equipment.

Magic Energy Equipment is considered a new-style siege defense weapon.

Zong Shen’s previous battle fortress and sentry tower could be equipped with Magic Energy Cannons.

Regardless, this piece of defense equipment can raise the defense level of the territory.

Out of the remaining 1000 points tier ten-item draw, there are two items left.

One is Rare Level, and the other is Excellent Level.

Zong Shen raised his hand, first retrieving the Rare Level item from the nearby empty ground.

It’s an intriguing wooden stake doll, about 1.6 meters tall.

The stake is armored and inscribed with dark red inscriptions.

Its function is quite interesting, potentially offering unforeseen assistance in combat.

[Taunting Stake (Purple)]

[Quality: Rare Level]

[Durability Value: 7500]

[Armor Value: 75]

[Magic Resistance: 75]

[Effect: Taunt (Emits a taunt to enemies within a 10-meter radius, compelling them to autonomously shift their attack target to the stake, this effect can be influenced by the Resilience of the target, ineffective on Ghosts and Mindless Undead, lasts until the stake shatters)]

(Come at me head-on! Cowards!)

It’s a quirky little item indeed.

It can emit a taunt, forcibly redirecting the enemy’s attack target.

Used to draw and deplete enemy attacks, it can also protect the rear guard.

Placing a [Taunting Stake] beside relatively frail mage and archer corps will ensure a strong effect.

Even if an enemy infiltrates the rear, they will be drawn to the stake.

At that moment, the long-range corps can focus fire to eliminate the infiltrating enemies.

That’s why Zong Shen finds the stake so interesting.

With a swift motion of his hand, he stores the stake away.

He then retrieves the final item.

This is a seed, approximately the size of a quail’s egg.

Shaped like a bean with two cotyledons, a tiny sprout is already protruding from the center,

This is an Excellent Level special plant seed.

Previously obtained special plant seeds were found during the exploration of the mine, the [Blood-devouring Man-eating Flower Seed (Purple)].

Those three cannibal flowers are still located to the north of the Central District.

Marie makes sure to arrange manpower daily for watering them with some cattle and sheep blood.

They can also absorb nutrients from the soil, making them easy to sustain.

Zong Shen plans to transplant these cannibal flowers outside the four city gates of the Lord’s Fortress.

Ideal for internal defense.

He’s committed to fortifying territory defense and doesn’t want to create a situation of external vigilance leading to internal vulnerability allowing infiltration.

Being Rare Level special plants, those blood-devouring man-eating flowers certainly hold some value.

The seed in his hand is equally practical.

[Paralyzing Vine Seed (Blue)]

[Excellent Level Special Plant]

[Plant it in soil to grow Paralyzing Vines]

[Each Paralyzing Vine has a lifecycle of thirty days and will produce seeds upon wilting]

[Seed yield ranges from 1 to 3 seeds]

[The growth speed of the Paralyzing Vine is rapid, obstructing enemy passage; with thorns on the vine, it can pierce enemy skin and cause temporary paralysis, effectively blocking enemy riding beasts and warhorses from passage]

(Suitable defense plant, enhancing with Moon God Spring can strengthen it. Be mindful to harvest seeds during its wilting stage to gradually expand the planting scale, else it will grow unchecked).

When planted in the right place, it can form a natural plant barrier.

This seed is indeed a valuable item.

In terms of practical value, it’s potentially stronger than the Rare Level blood-devouring man-eating flower.

Zong Shen plans to hand over the seed to High-level Agriculturalist Salome Lin Yu tomorrow.

He’ll have him first place the seed into [Vitality Vine Wood Box (Purple)] for 24-hour cultivation, then water it with Moon God Spring and plant it on the territory’s periphery.

To see if the seed can evolve into a Rare Level special plant.

If evolution is possible, it’s a definite gain.

The vine can cultivate seeds, each time randomly yielding 1 to 3 seeds.

No matter the chances of multiple seed production, with attentive cultivation, vast numbers of vine seeds can be obtained sooner or later.

When that time comes, Zong Shen can plant them wherever desired!

This is the true value of the vine seed!
