Azeroth: Starting with Eagle Eye in the Necropolis

"As a good friend, there are some things I want to tell you in advance: your sister Calia has a daughter," Gianna said meaningfully.

"Hmm! So Princess is already married?" Rhodes said, feigning surprise.

Jaina nodded. She felt that something was strange about what was happening today. Why would King Terenas have sent his sister Calia to accompany him?

As a married princess, this was clearly inappropriate; she shouldn't be in such a setting unless her husband was dead!

Chapter 56 Constraints, New Troop Type: God and Monster Master

Is that possible? Cialia's husband is dead!

To be honest, her husband has always been kept a secret, and even the king has not announced to the public that the princess is married.

Only a few people in the inner circle knew the real story, and even she only found out from Garia through a letter.

Since what happened three years ago, she hasn't had much contact with the royal family of Lordaeron.

Jaina had hoped that this meeting with Arthas would change the little prince somewhat, or make him more mature, but Arthas's actions only made her feel worse.

The female mage, however, was quite fond of the newly appeared Rhodes; birds of a feather flock together. Rhodes' various magical artifacts and the magical magic he possessed filled her with curiosity.

“I understand, thank you, Gina. To be honest, I don’t want to get involved in the affairs of the noble circles. I just want to complete the task given to me by the Titan Guardians,” Rhodes nodded and said.

The female mage's current appearance gave him the feeling of a jealous young girl.

Honestly! If I don't provoke the female mage, does she have to provoke me?

When did I become so charming?

This is really bad! Jaina's jinx attribute is no joke!

However, my primary goal right now is to become stronger. The plan cannot be changed. In the Battle of Mount Hyjal, I will kill Archimonde, and I will also kill Manonos!

I also need to take down Tichondrius; there are just too many hero-level characters I can defeat along the way!

Rhodes' most pressing need right now is a new city, or rather, a new type of unit building. Undead units can't be brought into the open, so they can only be led by Sciark!

“I’m just trying to be helpful. Your identity is special, so you need to be careful in making some choices,” Jaina said.

To be honest, from childhood to adulthood, it has always been men who have pursued me; I have never been the one to initiate a conversation with a man.

Rhodes is really speechless...

After Rhodes and Jaina left, Calia went to her father King Terenas's room.

"Father! Today, you want me to marry that Baron Rhodes, right?"

“Calia, it’s time for you to find a real husband. I think this young man named Rhodes is very suitable,” King Terenas said, putting down the book he was holding.

“But Father, my husband has only been dead for three days,” Princess Galiya said with a sigh.

"You didn't like him at all. Did you shed a single tear for him after he died? I know you only chose to marry him to spite me." No one knows a daughter better than her father; the old king knew exactly what his daughter was thinking.

Princess Galiya fell silent upon hearing this. Indeed, as her father said, how could a royal princess truly fall in love with an ordinary soldier?

“But Father, that Baron Rhodes doesn’t seem very interested in me,” Princess Calia said.

What woman wouldn't like a young, promising, and powerful man? She was no exception, but Rhodes didn't say a single word to her during the banquet.

This greatly frustrated Her Highness, and moreover

"Have some confidence in yourself. My daughter is beautiful, not much less so than the princess of Kul Tiras."

"And I agree to his going to Kalimdor to expand Lordaeron's territory, but there must be a condition: as the princess of Lordaeron, you will go with him. Do you understand what I mean?" King Terenas said.

How could he possibly hand over all the power over tens of thousands of people and a portion of the army to a newly appointed ordinary nobleman? There had to be a check and balance.

“I understand, Father. However, I will bring my daughter with me. If she can accept me and my daughter, then we can proceed. But if not, then so be it,” Princess Calia said.

King Terenas nodded upon hearing this. Matching Calia and Rhodes was secondary; the primary objective was to cross the sea to Kalimdor, and there needed to be a member of the royal family who could restrain Rhodes!

Of course, I also need to sabotage his relationship with Jaina. Arthas, you idiot, come back here right now!

The next few days passed peacefully, with King Terenas busy allocating domestic resources to Rhodes.

During this time, Rhodes' refugee camp was also refreshed!

What new unit types will be introduced this time?

Rhodes was slightly expectant, but with a mix of anticipation and trepidation, he opened the system town and then ordered Stanker to visit the refugee camp.

"Great Heaven, Black Dragon, Behemoth, Titan, Phoenix will also work," Rhodes roared inwardly.

Your hero has visited a refugee camp where three powerful monsters await recruitment, each costing 600 gold coins.

Upon seeing this information, Rhodes spent 1800 gold coins without hesitation to purchase the three divine monsters.

This refresh is quite good; the Divine Monster Lord is also a level 5 unit, and it's even been upgraded.

The Divine Beast is a flying unit that can cast random beneficial spells on allies, making it a god-tier support for the Titan, the late-game main damage dealer of the Tower faction.

This unit type is quite strong in combat, with an attack power of 12, a defense power of 12, a health of 40, and a damage of 13-16. It is slightly stronger than the Jin people!

But its true purpose is not to fight people, but to cast beneficial magic on friendly forces.

Bloodlust, God of Luck, Healing, Holy Spirit's Blessing, Attack Speed ​​Increase, Stone Skin Protection, Atmospheric Shield, Unfailing Accuracy, Anti-Magic Magic, Joyful Inspiration, Prayer, Magic Mirror.

Moreover, the spells used will last for 6 rounds, and their effects are equivalent to advanced magic skills!

Super powerful, right? The most classic strategy is to have 7 squads of troops, one squad of Titans and the other 6 squads of Gods and Monsters.

Titan is the main damage dealer, while the role of the Divine Beast is to act as a support, applying various buffs to Titan, and then their task is to draw enemy fire, after which it ends.

There are also three gods and monsters, and the magic they cast does not consume their own mana, so they can cast it once per turn.

In reality, the effects of these three deities would be immense; they could cast beneficial spells on an entire army.

Moreover, their design can also be interpreted as creations of the Titans. Rhodes plans to release these three divine monsters at a suitable time in the future as the next stage reward for the Titan Guardians.

After visiting the refugee camp, Rhodes opened the tavern. Because he could only have 8 heroes, Rhodes was very cautious about buying heroes.

I hadn't bought any heroes before, but I would check the tavern every week to see if there were any good heroes.

Chapter 57 New Hero, Master So, Powerful Chain Lightning

The Hero Tavern refreshes every 7 days, and two heroes will appear every Monday: one from your own race and one from another.

First up is the hero of the undead race. This time, the hero is a death knight named Chama, whose specialty is ghosts, and whose initial abilities are necromancy and tactics.

It comes with its own magic arrows, and three random squads of soldiers: one pair of skeletons and two pairs of ghosts.

Several undead heroes have appeared before, but Rhode did not choose to buy or hire them because one Stanker is enough for now, and he needs to be more frugal with other cities to come.

If it were this person when he first traveled through time, Rod would have bought it no matter what, but now that Brother Qiang is here, there's nothing he can do.

Rhode turned to look at the next option, and this option surprised him greatly, because the hero that appeared was none other than the famous Solomon.

As the saying goes, the reason why people like playing Tower is because Titans and Thors each make up half of the players. If these two weren't around and there was a traitorous mage, who would want to play Tower?

Somra, Tower Hero, Race: Mythical, Initial Attributes: Attack 0, Defense 0, Strength 2, Knowledge 3

His background is part of the story's setting.

Somra had been imprisoned in a magical bottle for over a thousand years. He was extremely grateful to the person who released him and swore to serve him forever. Perhaps it was fate, but that person was Magnus, the immortal ruler of the Bracada Highlands.

This hero is incredibly powerful, possessing both wisdom and magic. One grants the innate ability to learn level 3 magic, while the other increases the power of spells.

Soye is incredibly strong. If you can get him as your first hero, he's an absolute must-pick, and a super powerful main hero that you can use from start to finish.

Thor's specialty is Chain Lightning, a spell that is already very powerful in the hands of other heroes, but in Thor's hands it is simply terrifying.

Many players think that spells like Doomsday Judgment and Thunder Bomb are very powerful, but for veteran players, the spell they really like is Chain Lightning.

This spell deals extremely high damage; Chain Lightning is an air-based spell, a level 4 damage spell.

No skills required. 24 mana to strike 4 enemy units, dealing damage halved for each subsequent unit, and dealing (Strength x 40) + 25 damage to the first target.

Basic air magic, reduced by 4 mana points, requires only 20 mana points to cast.

Intermediate-level air magic deals (Power x 40) +50 damage; Advanced-level air magic deals (Power x 40) +100 damage.

This is the bonus for ordinary heroes. Sol has additional bonuses, including his own special skill bonus and magic power bonus. In his initial state, a single magic lightning strike can deal more than 110 points of damage.

Now I have a Star Axis that adds 1 Strength, so Soye's damage can soar to over 150, and the damage to the next three targets is halved in turn, which is quite terrifying.

Moreover, Thor is a god-like being. After he comes out, he can team up with his four other god-like beings, all of whom are magical creations sent by the Titans to provide support. This is just too awesome!

Without any hesitation, Rhodes pulled out 2500 units of gold and hired Thor.

After Ram was no longer needed, a golden magic lamp appeared in Rhodes's hand. Rhodes gently wiped the lamp bottle, and a blue elemental spirit creature, more than 3 meters tall, emerged from it.

“Great master, I have been sealed away for 1000 years. I swear that whoever releases me will serve me for life,” Somra said, bowing to Rhodes as she appeared.

This way of making an entrance reminded Rod of Aladdin's lamp, and Rod asked a question as if by some strange impulse.

"Magic lamp, can you grant me three wishes?"

"??? I'm sorry, Master, I can't grant your wish. I can only serve you." Somra said somewhat speechlessly. She was just sealed inside and didn't have the ability to grant wishes. If she did, she would have escaped long ago.

"Ahem! It's nothing, I was just asking casually. Welcome to Somra."

I also have a subordinate named Sciark, who is a death knight. You two should get along well from now on.

"I'll have him take you for a walk outside the city in a bit. First, you can learn some healing magic from the basic magic temple outside, and also learn another astrological axis to increase your strength," Rhodes said, waving his hand.

“Yes, my great master. It is my honor to serve you,” said the mythical elf Somra, bowing to Rhodes.

Rhodes nodded and inquired about Somra's situation before exiting the hero interface.

With the addition of Soye, Rhodes essentially has a super-powerful mage. Currently, those who can withstand a single chain lightning strike from Soye are extremely rare.

The only downside is that Chain Lightning consumes 24 mana points, while Thor only has a pitiful 30 mana points, meaning it's the kind of spell that's used up in one go.

But it's okay, being able to cast it once a day is not bad. As long as Lord So stays in the city for one night the next day, he can recover all his magic points.

This is a perk for system heroes, and since Rhodes carries the town with him, all heroes can enjoy this perk at any time.

However, since there is only one city, only one unit can enjoy this mana regeneration effect each day. At first, Rhodes thought he wouldn't be able to enjoy this benefit because he couldn't put himself in Hero City.

It wasn't until recently that Rhodes discovered that if he simply switched his hero portrait to the city and then took a nap, his mana would be fully restored the next day.

This is essentially the same as returning to town. I'll use it sparingly from now on, as my current magical knowledge is more than enough.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's the morning of the 5th day. Today is the day we agreed upon with King Terenas.
