“The Raven”

Type: Long-handle Magic Staff

Acquisition: Corpse Manufacture

Quality: Epic (Pink)

Materials Used:

[Wand Head] – Heart of the Crow (Epic, Semi-Living Material)

[Wand Body] – Ghost-faced Demon Wood (Epic, Dark Fate Material)

[Energy Crystal] – Source of the Lighthouse (Epic, Dark (Transformed) Fate Material)

Basic Attributes:

①. Significantly increases the user’s magic limit, improves affinity and damage with black magic.

②. Using the staff as the main object to cast black magic has a certain probability of ignoring the target’s magic resistance.

Equipment Special Effects:

‘Crowman Affinity’ – Allows the holder to deeply bond with the Crowman, reducing the ‘rejection’ and ‘energy consumption’ during the bond, and enhancing the mobility of the main body in bonded state.

‘Dark Flow Surging’ – Each casting of black magic accumulates one layer of [Dark Flow] effect.

(Dark Flow: Casting speed increases by +2%, with a 0.25% chance to increase the base level of the released spell. Maximum can enhance 60% casting speed, with a 7.5% chance to increase spell level.)

‘Ghost Shield’ – Changes the nature of the magic shield on the holder, overlaying the Ghost-faced effect.

(Ghost Face: Improves magic defense, has a certain probability to absorb black magic, witchcraft, and dark elemental energies, transforming them into replenishment energy for the magic shield, with a certain disrupting effect.)

Exclusive Effects:

‘Crowman Lord’s Halo LV.1’ – Significantly improves the moving speed of friendly forces within a certain range (approximately 10~15%, doubled for Crowmen), with a range of one kilometer.

(The level of the halo can be raised along with the staff)

Signature: The staff belongs to Lord Nicholas of Stuart Manor.

“I-am-the-Crows”

…

This is Han Dong’s exclusive weapon, forged with all his fate points and all the relationships in reality, using the core of the ‘Strange Tales’ main lighthouse… the Great Elder of the Crowman as the furnace, and the energy supply of the Citrus Wart Tree.

An epic level staff.

Perfectly flawless, even formal knights in the Holy City find it extremely difficult to acquire a weapon of this quality.

Moreover, even with epic materials, it is not guaranteed to forge a perfect epic weapon. The forging process is very challenging, even a slight mistake can damage the material and cause the quality of the finished product to fall.

From the moment this staff emerges.

The morale of the Crowman army rises to another level.

“Messenger Lord, allow me, Lance Crow, to lead the physically strongest Crowmen in a frontal assault!”

“Elder Lance is too impatient, this battle is not so easy… A frontal assault relying solely on Crowmen is unlikely to gain an advantage.

Elder Miz Crow, lead thirteen of your double-headed Crowmen who are proficient in ‘Life Absorption’!”

“Yes!”

Unlike Lance Crow, who is good at close combat, Miz Crow is the Crowman elder who gave Han Dong the ‘Life Absorption’ spell.

Following Han Dong’s instructions, he leads out thirteen Crowman disciples exclusive to him.

“The first wave of attack will be performed by you in conjunction with the products of the [Swollen Doctor]… Directly give the Count a big gift.”

“Yes!”

“The other Elders must also begin to prepare for battle, as the Scarlet Count is an extreme being on the edge of insanity… If the progress of the war is different from what he expects, even by a large margin.

This may lead to the Count falling completely into madness in anger, recklessly pushing up all his chess pieces.

When that time comes, it will be necessary for the Elders to make a full attack and carry out a restraining maneuver.

My knight allies will also provide powerful combat assistance, dealing with the Demon Group within the Scarlet Manor.”

“Yes!”

Han Dong opened his Little Demon Eye and gazed into the distance.

About a hundred fully armed elite Blood Descendants, coordinated with the [Baron Graves], stepped out of the gates of Scarlet Manor.

Simultaneously, due to the special nature of Baron Graves.

Upon stepping out of the manor, thousands of Blood Descendant corpses, their bodies covered in scarlet fungi, resurrected from the cemetery, each one retaining 80% of their life attributes (with a corresponding reduction in the powerful ones), and also bearing the special trait of the “Blood Plague” which could cause bleeding and vulnerability effects when attacking and had the potential to infect the target.

The Count’s thinking was sound.

In the first battle, he would mainly use these insignificant dead to spread the “Blood Plague” as much as possible.

It would not only infect the enemy’s troops but also give him an approximation of the enemy’s overall strength through these expendable corpses.

In addition, once the “Blood Plague” spread, the hundred elite Blood Descendants embedded in the ranks, combined with Baron Graves, could easily crush the enemy’s first division, pushing straight to the gates of Stuart Manor.

The Count was seated on the rooftop of his mansion, quietly watching the unfolding war.

Although the [Land Deed Battle] was his first time too, he himself had already invaded many regions through his ‘Movable Deed’, and had a unique understanding of ‘invasion’.

He was confident in his ability to easily defeat the Lord corresponding to this small Land Deed.

As the gates of Stuart Manor fully opened.

The Count sat up slightly interested, curious to see what forces this young lord would dispatch in the first battle.

“Will an inexperienced youngster send his entire army at the beginning? Well… let your Crowman army charge out then, the scene of crying crows must be splendid.

Just like a flock of quails that had just been thrown into a frying pan, haha! Ah~~”

However, the Count’s manic laughter ended abruptly the next second, being replaced by a look of confusion.

“Hmm… Does this Lord Nicholas really intend to give up his land deed?”

Flying out of the gate of Stuart Manor were only fourteen Crowmen… Although there was a Demon mixed among them, such a force obviously couldn’t contest against the Count’s army of thousands.

However, in an area invisible to the Count.

Inside the underground laboratory of Stuart Manor, every living containment cell had been opened from the start.

The Swollen Doctor was using something like a toilet brush to massage his gigantic brain, to ensure its clarity and high concentration.

The reason why Han Dong dared to directly confront Scarlet Manor was largely due to the [Swollen Doctor].

The doctor could be considered Han Dong’s biggest gain ever since he seized the Land Deed from the hands of the Giant Ghoul…

The two armies were no more than a kilometer apart.

Just as the fourteen Crowmen were about to collide head-on with the thousand-strong army sent out by the Scarlet Manor.

The ground began to tremble.

A large number of fissures appeared on the grey battlefield, all leading to underground tunnels.

Uh~!!

Frantic roars were heard from the underground area.

With sharp claws and thick arms,

A long-tongued, pointed teeth,

Jelly-like skin,

Almost a thousand Ghouls extended their arms, crawling out from the depths…

“Ghouls? The descendants left by the former Lord Stuart… How could these lower-ranked evils possibly confront head-on with my Blood Descendant army? Such a naive and young Lord.”

The Count didn’t take this group of Ghouls seriously at all.

However…

Just at the moment when the two armies clashed.

The situation was overturned in less than ten seconds… The corpses of the Blood Descendants died in large numbers, their formation fell into disarray.

Han Dong showed a smile, quietly appreciating the fruits of his underground collaboration with the Swollen Doctor.
