Chapter 972: Chapter 590: Skeleton Cannon_3

They were able to excavate this Special Ability, and it was all thanks to Shadow Drag. If they were merely transported back to the manor, discovering this ability might have required other coincidental opportunities.

"Yes, only those infused with Shadow Power can unlock this Special Ability," Daphne affirmed Gaven’s speculation.

"Is it possible to use the corpses at hand and mass reproduce them?" For such a good thing, Gaven always thought about mass production.

"That still needs to be tried. There’s a lot I still don’t fully understand, even repairs are extremely difficult. To think about reproduction, by myself, I’m still a long way off," Daphne replied conservatively.

"If one person finds it strenuous, then form a research team, gather collective wisdom. Estelle and Grace both have expertise in this area, fully utilize the knowledge they hold," Gaven took out several Gnome Alchemical Firearms and tossed them to Daphne, "Not only do we want to reproduce these skeletal cannons, but see if we can miniaturize them to something similar to these shooting weapons. If those with Shadow Power had weapons like these, it would greatly enhance their combat effectiveness."

Gaven did not dare to rashly start the development of various gunpowder weapons, not because he disdained modern shooting weapons, but for fear that if modern technology was massively developed, it would fall into the hands of those madmen who only want chaos, bringing even greater disorder to the world.

If there was an opportunity to develop shooting weapons completely under his control, he would still be pleased to see it happen.

The Wilderness Kobolds in the Dragon Oak Territory were studying the Gnoll Alchemy Firearms, not using Tremor Bomb alchemy technology, but the power of the Kobold’s Dragon Veins, and had achieved some results, at least prior to isolation from the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, but far from ideal, just like the initial Tremor Bombs, full of Kobold’s characteristic instability, the power was very troublesome.

Unexpectedly, at the Weizemay Manor, there was a breakthrough with the Shadow Power overnight.

It’s just that they suddenly unearthed too many uses for the Shadow Power, plunging Gaven into happy troubles, necessitating a partial withdrawal of the Shadow Power from Blood Horn Peak to maintain the eighteen Shadow Skeletal Cannons. Even though fifty points per cannon doesn’t seem high, the amount soon adds up to nearly a thousand points, directly taking up one-sixth of the manor’s total load capacity.

"We will definitely try more," Daphne couldn’t help but sigh, Lord’s thought processes indeed differed from ordinary people. Every work report would open new doors for her, pioneering new ideas, "Do we need to custom-build war chariots for them? To facilitate their transportation?"

"We do," Gaven nodded, "Not only do we need to build chariots, but also design special gripping devices for them, based on the standards of Treants. If necessary, they can hold them for attack."

What was a cannon to humans, could be a hand cannon for the giant-bodied Treants. This would greatly enhance the Treants’ insufficient long-range attack capability, while also granting these Shadow Skeletal Cannons superb mobility and enhancing safety.

"I’ll have the Sodalite Treant craftsmen work on this immediately."

"Speed is crucial, aim to have the army in place before leaving Efanso." Dealing with the imminent warfare at the Goblin Margins was Gaven’s top priority.

"Understood."

"Is there anything else?"

"Not at the moment."

"Then let’s get to work."

"As you command."

...

The Conqueror Army already had a complete organizational structure, especially after the arrival of Catherine with the Red Falcon Knights’ Lady Strategy and sacrificial Holy Strategists, which had directly elevated their level of organization.

Even without Gaven in the army, it continued to operate smoothly.

The settlement of war reparations with the Giant Dragon Coast Allied Forces had not been delayed by the additional branch arising from Weizemay Manor, and the final transaction was completed the night before the five-day period was up.

Just as Gaven and the others had speculated, the Giant Dragon Coast Allied Forces would not just accept defeat; they were trifling over the reparations.

Financially, they had not anticipated the Conqueror Army’s unique ability like Shadow Drag and took a hit, inadvertently handing the Conqueror Army a clean profit of close to three million.

On the matter of the ten thousand migrants, they believed they had succeeded, at least they thought so. Whether they were able-bodied or slaves, they were unwilling to give a single one to the Conqueror Army; they gathered all the old, weak, sick, and disabled from the large cities, many of who were barely alive, and sent them over.

The Conqueror Army accepted them all. While these old, weak, sick, and disabled could not directly be converted into the strength of the Conqueror Army, they also had their benefits - once the Conqueror Army’s Healing Team provided free treatment for their physical injuries, their favorability towards the Conqueror Army would surge, steadfast loyalty could not be guaranteed, but at least they wouldn’t try to escape in various ways.

And in terms of healing ability, the Conqueror Army’s medical team reached an unprecedented level, not only did Darnell’s Holy Warrior Brigade join, but also because of the extensive provision of Fast Healing Rings and Regeneration Rings. In a situation where funding was not particularly tight, such practical equipment was, of course, given priority to outfit their own army to improve their survival ability, rather than being sold on a large scale.

This event had an additional benefit; when news of free treatment for the migrants spread, many who previously had no desire to migrate were enticed, especially those Limbseverer.

Not just ordinary people, even those Transcendent Professionals, the expensive casting price of the Seven Rings’ Regeneration Technique was not so easily affordable.

Now having a chance for free healing, they were keen to enter; many of these individuals were able-bodied, many even being intermediate-low level Combat Profession Practitioners, who encountered more dangers and battles.

The Conqueror Army had only promised not to actively recruit migrants in the major cities on the Giant Dragon Coast but had not promised to refuse those who arrived at their doorstep.
