Effort!

Seeing that Gu Xi and Dimi had easily reached an agreement, the Han Dynasty quartermaster felt somewhat embarrassed.

He coughed loudly, drawing Gu Xi's attention, then cleared his throat, preparing to say, "Hey friend, Dimi is..."

Before he could finish speaking, Dimi reached out and pushed the Skeleton Archer Leader, whom she had pinned against the wall, out of the wall and carried him like a chick.

Gu Xi immediately understood Dimi's meaning. "Including the Skeleton Archer Leader you just recommended, we don't need any other leaders. I don't have that many undead under my command yet, so having too many leaders would be a waste."

"By the way, besides changing leaders, what else can these battle merits be exchanged for?"

[Skeleton Head Archer (Level 0, Summoned Creature): Experience (0/500), Attack 3, Defense 1, Health 13, Ammo 5, Skills: Combat Elite, Squad Command (29 players).]

"Friend, this..."

"No way, isn't the price here based on one leader's battle merit? You're not planning to raise the price, are you?"

"No, why would I raise the price?" The quartermaster hurriedly shook his head. For the first time, he felt that Gu Xi, whom he had initially swayed by his boasts, was not an easy player to deal with.

"I just wanted to say that there are some decent leaders here, why don't you take a look?"

"No need, two leaders are enough. By the way, besides leaders, what else can these battle merits be exchanged for? Hero?"

"You can't exchange it for Hero," the quartermaster said with a smile. "You can exchange it for some equipment, but this isn't combat equipment. This is all campaign equipment, the kind that players can use, and bosses and Hero can also use."

These items are all of similar quality, blue-level, but as you know, the quantity of these battle equipment is relatively small, so the price will be higher, one item per battle merit.

In addition, while the skill books for necromancers are not complete here, they are still present, and each skill book is earned through battle merits.

You have your own city now, right? Here are the city building plans. Small plots require one battle merit, Medium Plot require two battle merits, and I don't have any large plots here for now.

"If there's anything you want, three battle merits will suffice, and I'll go find it for you."

Having abandoned some ideas, the quartermaster stopped dwelling on Dimi's matter and began introducing some items he had that he could sell.

Of course, this time, in order to prevent Gu Xi from gaining any advantage, he specifically quoted the price as well.

Gu Xi was initially still agonizing over the equipment and Building Blueprint, but after a moment's thought, he decisively asked, "What skills do you have here?"

"Clever."

Upon hearing Gu Xi's choice, the quartermaster immediately praised him, "Everything else is external, only skills are your own. I have Class Skill, Active Skill, and passive skills here, but not Special Skill. As you know, those require prerequisites."

In addition, some of the Class Skill have specific requirements. If you haven't met the requirements for that profession, you cannot select certain skills. These are all clearly stated, so you'd better read them carefully before making your selection.

"OK."

Gu Xi said decisively, "Take out all the skill books first so I can take a look. By the way, how many basic skill books do you have here?"

"You can tell by how I, a Death Knight, have taken the leadership path."

Gu Xi immediately understood what the quartermaster meant.

These are clearly some basic or essential prerequisite skill books, which are in high demand here.

However, Gu Xi had his own plans. In fact, even before he graduated from the academy, he had already considered what path he would take in the future and how to arrange his skills.

Although he has mastered two of the Three Divine Skills, it does not mean that Gu Xi will drastically change his course.

Gu Xi's plan is still to progress from necromancer to Lich at level 10, then to Lich King at level 20, and finally to the path of Grim Reaper.

In Gu Xi's plan, he must master one of the three ultimate skills on the necromancer path. Only in this way will he have the opportunity to become the Lich King at level 20. Otherwise, he can only become the Arch Lich.

At level 30, he will have no chance for a second class advancement and will live as Arch Lich until he dies.

The difference here is huge.

Although there are very few players above level 20 in the entire Bailian City right now, Gu Xi can think far into the future; perhaps this is just a player's fantasy.

Gu Xi, who had dreams, had already considered the skills he needed to learn from the very beginning.

However, he was never very lucky. Since he started working, he failed to get the job he wanted in four consecutive attempts.

Now that he hears about the skill book, Gu Xi will naturally pay more attention, at least to ensure that he can acquire one of his targets.

"The skill books are all here. Take a look yourself, but you can only look at the cover. Once you open a skill book, it will be automatically read, and I won't return it."

The quartermaster also saw through Gu Xi's thoughts.

"I know, let me check first. No witchcraft, no luck? No luck either? War Machine Mastery, oh, I have this one, I'll take it first."

Logistics studies—the opportunity is gone, and Offense are missing too. What kind of Armaments is this? Economics? It's all useless.

Gu Xi flipped through the skill books one by one, starting with the non- Class Skill.

According to his plan, he will learn two of the following five non- Class Skill: sorcery (passive), luck (passive), War Machine Mastery (passive), logistics (passive), and Offense (passive).

After searching for a long time, he only found one War Machine Mastery; he couldn't find any others.

[War Machine Mastery (Passive): Enhances the power of war machines, increasing the attack, defense, and damage of Ballista; increases the damage of Catapult; increases the healing effect of First Aid Tent; when Ammo Cart are present, grants additional attack power to ranged units.]

As for War Machine Mastery, this is Gu Xi definitely needs to learn.

Putting aside other aspects, the combination of War Machine Mastery and the Undead Road will offer many more different options. For example, with the Medical Tent, Plague Tent can be created.

Another example is the Corpse Thrower that appears after choosing the Catapult route.

Finally, there were even corresponding skills that increased the attack power of Arrow Tower.

This is quite important to Gu Xi.

After reaching level 5, his Death City can deploy Summoning Tower on the battlefield; after reaching level 9, it can deploy walls and moats on the battlefield. These walls contain built-in arrow Arrow Tower.

However, Gu Xi's initial research was not very detailed, so it's unknown what changes will occur when War Machine Mastery is combined with the Undead class in terms of Arrow Tower.

But Gu Xi was certain of one thing: War Machine Mastery was useful to him, and that was enough.
