Global Lords: I Have Information System

Chapter 415: Chapter 320: Settler Recruitment, Careful Selection

In summary, Zong Shen chose to exchange all the [Farmer Recruitment Scrolls (Purple)] in one go; points have value, but talent is priceless.

Moreover, this time Zong Shen wasn’t short on points at all; after the exchange, he still had 254,225 points left.

After exchanging for the farmers, Zong Shen’s gaze turned to other options available.

Basically, as long as it belongs to the Human Race line, non-ancient and non-special units can be recruited.

Units like the Dark Night Female Hunter from the Elf Race can’t be recruited, and to Zong Shen’s surprise, Wolf Cavalry is also not on the recruitable list. Although they are a standard unit for lords in the region, they don’t seem to be the mainstream units on the current Era Continent.

They should be from a steppe tribe of the Human Race from the previous Era’s continent, not just the Wolf Cavalry.

Standard units like the Orc Warriors and Giant Demon Warriors in Ah Ze’s area are also missing in the exchange options.

For other Human Race units, whether they are from the Kingdom Series, Church Series, Organization Series, or Neutral System, generally, from Tier One to Tier Four, they are all available. The price depends on the tier and unit type.

Cavalry units are the most expensive of the same tier; mages rank second, shooter types come third, and melee types are the cheapest.

Although mages require Mage Talent, their innate requirements are quite high.

But in fact, training cavalry is the true extravagance; whether it’s the cavalry member, the mount, or the complete set of armor and weapons, comprehensively, training a cavalry member is considerable.

Warrior Recruitment Scrolls are also limited, from Tier One to Tier Four, regardless of type or talent. Each tier can redeem up to 12 recruitment scrolls.

The prices vary within, and for Tier One, only ordinary and good talents are available, with a 200-point exchange price difference between the two.

The exchange price for Tier One Cavalry with ordinary talent is 800 points, and for good talent, it is 1,000 points.

The exchange price for Tier One Apprentice Mage with ordinary talent is 700 points, and for good talent, it is 900 points.

The exchange price for Tier One Short Bowman or Light Crossbowman with ordinary talent is 600 points, and for good talent, it is 800 points.

The exchange price for Tier One Infantry Warrior with ordinary talent is 500 points, and for good talent, it is 700 points.

Tier Two Recruitment Scroll prices are 1.5 times those of Tier One for the same unit and talent; the talents available are ordinary, good, and excellent, with excellent talents being 400 points more expensive than good talents.

Tier Three Recruitment Scroll prices are 1.5 times those of Tier Two for the same unit and talent; they start with excellent talent and have a rare talent option, requiring an additional 800 points.

Tier Four Recruitment Scroll prices are 1.5 times those of Tier Three for the same unit and talent; they also begin with excellent talent, with rare level talent needing an added cost.

The talent of soldiers can improve some basic attributes to a certain extent; within the same tier, each talent upgrade can boost basic attributes by about 20%, and using corresponding tier souls can improve soldiers’ talent.

Zong Shen first chose Tier One soldiers, which are generally weaklings; even Tier One Cavalry are Light Cavalry, but fortunately, there are many types to choose from, even those from the Calamity Raven Church.

However, the growth potential of Tier One soldiers is ultimately limited. From a long-term perspective, cavalry, infantry, and archers are unsuitable; only Tier One Apprentice Mages seem more appropriate.

Because Zong Shen’s territory has a [Magic Hall], these Apprentice Mages can gradually improve some of their attributes through Meditation Cultivation, and can also enhance wisdom and charm by reading, providing additional ways to increase their strength.

By comparison, other types of warriors can only upgrade through replacing equipment and leveling up, so Zong Shen decided to exchange for twelve Apprentices Mages with good talent; Tier One Apprentices Mages usually master one or two types of Tier One single-target magic.

As for the category, Zong Shen chose Thunder Element directly!

The magic of Thunder and Fire elements has impressive power, and in fact, the limits of elements don’t have high or low status; the two major attributes of space-time are the same, just rarer with some special traits.

Other attribute magic reaching the extreme can also tear dimensions and disrupt time, and if they reach the extreme, in terms of power, they are basically similar, differing mainly in the characteristics of the attribute.

Zong Shen consumed 10,800 points and exchanged for 12 [Tier One Thunder Element Apprentice Mage Recruitment Scrolls (Green)].

Now he had 243,425 points remaining, giving him an illusion of never running out of points.

For Tier Two warriors, he didn’t choose mages again because Tier Two started having cost-effective units; although there was no strategy guide, Zong Shen screened them based on some basic information.

For example, Nord Scout Cavalry from the Kingdom Series Nord Kingdom, Kujite Guerrilla Shooter from the Kujite Kingdom, Tier Two Light Crossbowman from the Avalon Kingdom, and Rodok Crossbowman from the Rodok Kingdom.

Also, the Tier Two warriors from the Church Series Serpent Followers.

And Tier Two Glorious Shield Swordsmen Infantry from the Organization Series Glorious Eye Mercenary Corps.

All these are relatively cost-effective Tier Two units.

Those scouts are all good choices, but the exchange price for cavalry is high; Zong Shen needs to save at least 100,000 to 80,000 points to exchange for some defense building blueprints.

After thinking for a while, weighing the exchange price and cost-effectiveness, Zong Shen decided to give up the option of Tier Two scouts and consider the Tier Two crossbowmen instead.

Simply looking at the description, Rodok Crossbowman seems to have a higher cost-effectiveness than the Tier Two Light Crossbowman from the Avalon Kingdom. Both belong to the powerful Tier Two crossbowmen.

After considering these two types of crossbowmen, Zong Shen finally decided to choose the Rodok Crossbowmen.

He spent 14,400 points to exchange 12 [Tier Two Rodok Crossbowman Recruitment Scrolls].

Now it was time for the Tier Three soldiers. Currently, under Zong Shen’s command are Tier Three soldiers ready for action; according to present options, there happened to be Dragonized Spear and Shield Warriors under Tier Three Recruitment Scrolls, so he decided to choose them.

He spent 14,400 points to exchange for 12 [Tier Three Recruitment Scrolls (Excellent) Dragonized Spear and Shield Warrior].

With twelve more formal mages added, Zong Shen’s strength has undoubtedly increased. Although summoning a few Tier Three doesn’t guarantee they would master a Tier Four Magic Skill, he decided to take his chances. Like Doris, being able to master a Tier Four Magic Skill would be even better. Mages belong to the Mage Series; official mages were much more cost-effective compared to Tier Four Mages.

This is because Tier Four soldiers are twice as expensive as Tier Three, not to mention the resource consumption is much greater.

In terms of abilities, Zong Shen preferred mage types with a focus on supporting his warriors.

In church-type recruitment scrolls, there’s also the Dragon-Transformed Spear and Shield Warrior belonging to the Dragon Transformation Church, a Tier Three Soldier.

Zong Shen considered the existing types of mages in his territory, including each series of mages, and decided to gamble on recruiting a few Tier Three Dragonized Spear and Shield Warriors.

He spent 18,600 points to exchange for 12 [Tier Three Dragonized Spear and Shield Warrior Recruitment Scrolls (Excellent)], with each scroll requiring 1200 points.

His points had decreased significantly faster than anticipated, leaving him only with a remaining points balance of 12325 after the exchange.
