Chapter 428: According to Ivan¡¯s research on potential over the years, the potential is so low that even if these blood-sucking larvae can really evolve into vampire demons, their room for continued progress is extremely narrow, and perhaps most of them will remain lifelong. They will all stop at the second level. Even if there are a few special cases, breaking through to the fourth level is already the limit. Although on the surface, demon larvae are also products spawned by using soul fragments, they are allowed by the laws of the world and are included as an important part of the demon world. They are inherently more than one level higher than blood-sucking larvae. Most of them It is not surprising that they all have strong evolutionary potential. "It doesn't matter whether Sachs has high potential or not. After all, what the so-called vampire demon clan lacks now is the base of the population, not the number of masters, and the second-level strength is enough for ordinary demons to protect themselves in most cases. ." Ivan thought secretly in his heart: "No, maybe they prefer blood-sucking larvae with lower potential, because this means that blood-sucking larvae can reach the limit of their body's strength faster and complete evolution in the shortest time." Ivan couldn't help but think of his manpower reserve in the small world. It has been a year since he came to Demon Castle. After such a long period of operation, the talent cultivation and education system in the small world has long been mature and has begun to produce talents in batches. , almost every month, two to three hundred carefully selected little demons are sent into the small world. Similarly, every month, about a hundred loyal first-level demons come out of the small world and pass through various Methods are assigned to key positions in the territory. As a large number of key positions in the territory are gradually replaced by these demons. The period of manpower shortage in Lionheart Leader has finally passed. Although compared to the population of the entire territory, the number of demons that have emerged from the small world in the past six months is pitifully small, but it is different from the created blood-sucking demon clan. Ivan only needs to use these people who are loyal to him to build a complete institutional framework. The remaining flesh and blood will naturally be supplemented by ordinary demons. At this time, Ivan could more and more understand the bitterness of Orcus when he talked about being a god in the tavern: The most fortunate thing about him is not his own talent, but the race he comes from, the devil. The devils are an unusually large group of people, and as long as Alvin works hard enough, he can achieve some results. Then a large number of demons of the same race will come to seek refuge. After a little emotion, Alvin began to face reality again. Although the potential of these blood-sucking larvae is only about level two to three, it really needs to be fully developed. It is also a big trouble. The average strength of the garrison deployed by Ivan in Odelia Port is only about level 2. If there is a firefight, both sides are likely to suffer losses. "It's not all the blood-sucking larvae that appear here. What's the total number?" Ivan looked around on the sea. After roughly counting them in my mind, I found that the number of blood-sucking larvae that appeared in front of me was not as many as I thought. I couldn't help but be surprised. However, no more runes were fed back in the consciousness space. After a slight hesitation, I asked directly. "No, Viscount Alvin, there are already all the blood-sucking larvae here!" Sika, who cast an insect spell, quickly replied. "If they have all come out, then there are about two hundred blood-sucking larvae on the sea!" Kafu nodded after hearing this. "Two hundred, how come it is so little?" Ivan said in surprise. He clearly remembered what Ollie had said. A total of more than 3,000 corpses from both sides were buried at sea on this cliff. How could it be possible to cultivate so few blood-sucking larvae? "Our experimental base is under the sea. All the blood-sucking larvae are here. There are only about two hundred of them in total." Cafu patiently explained: "Viscount Alvin, I understand what you are thinking, but it is not casual. Any corpse can be used as a mother body for blood-sucking larvae. We are also particular about it. Moreover, the failure rate during the birth process has always been high. In addition to these two hundred blood-sucking larvae, we have also spawned nearly a thousand failed products. , which is what you call the joint worms. " "Ha, there are only two hundred successful blood-sucking larvae, but you got nearly a thousand failed joint worms?" Ivan frowned when he heard this. The success rate is also ridiculously low. It is hard to imagine that this is a plan devised by a necromancer who is a master in transforming living things. "Well, well, Mr. Sachs just proposed this experimental plan. The theoretical success rate is more than 90%, but he did not intervene in the specific implementation." Kafu explained calmly. Ivan then understood that no matter how good the plan is, it must have excellent subordinates to execute it. Kafu and Sika obviously have no talent in transforming living things. "Although I really want to sympathize with you, from my own standpoint, I want to congratulate you instead." Ivan said. "Ah?" Cafu and Sika looked up at Ivan, with stunned expressions on their faces. Even if Ivan disliked this matter, there was no need to say it so straightforwardly. This was not in line with the devil. Their hypocritical nature! "Congratulations, because the number of blood-sucking larvae does not pose much of a threat to the Lion Heart Leader, so I decided to allow you to continue to maintain this stronghold. This is a good thing for both of us." Ivan ignored them. With an expression on his face, he explained directly. "Ah, Viscount Alvin, you are right, this is indeed a good thing!" Cafu finally reacted and said continuously. "But as a price, I need you to do three things for me!" Of course Ivan would not really be a good person. After Cafu was happy, he began to make conditions. "Well, Viscount Alvin, please tell me first. I can only say that I will try my best to do whatever I can" Hearing this, Cafu's face suddenly fell down, and he said in a plaintive voice, although Ai Wenming knew that most of his expression was fake, but it was not immune to some influence. "There's no need to pretend like this, you can do these three things!" Ivan glared at Cafu. "Really, that's great, please tell me!" Cafu said quickly. "The first thing is, no matter what method you use, you must clean up the joint worms in the nearby waters." Ivan said with a serious face: "More than a thousand joint worms that can conceal their aura are wandering in the coastal area of ????Lion Heart Territory. , I don¡¯t need to tell you how big a threat it is to the Lion Heart Leader. I will see the results of this matter in one month. " "One month, it is quite enough time, I agreed to this matter. ." Cafu thought for a moment and nodded. "Very good, then regarding the second thing, I found that the blood-sucking larvae you summoned can hide in the sea water, while those joint worms basically lurk under the dry reefs. Can I guess that due to the structure of the body, Blood-sucking larvae are not afraid of sea water, but joint worms are afraid of sea water?" Ivan asked. "Absolutely. Seawater will corrode the skeletons of joint worms that are not protected by flesh and blood. If they are soaked in seawater for a long time, their bones will become brittle. However, blood-sucking larvae that are protected by flesh and blood do not have this problem. They can stay there for a long time. In the sea, it's like a mutated sea snake." Cafu explained, and then asked curiously: "Although this matter is a bit special, what does it have to do with the second thing you want me to do?" "It turns out that the difference between blood-sucking larvae and joint worms is really so big. It seems that the time I left you for the first thing is really too generous" Ivan looked thoughtful and answered the question. "Viscount Alvin" Cafu said dumbfounded. "Well, since blood-sucking larvae can move freely in the sea, the second and third things I want you to do should be considered very simple!" Aiwen looked straight and said: "Listen carefully, the second The second thing is to monitor the western sea area of ????the Lion Heart Territory. If you find a human landing force that cannot be solved with your strength, quickly send a messenger to notify me." "This matter is not difficult, but the corpses after the war should be returned. All of us?" Cafu asked. "Of course, except for you, I don't think anyone will want those corpses." Ivan affirmed. ¡°Hehehe, it¡¯s better if no one robs him~¡± Cafu smiled proudly. "As for the third thing" Ivan pretended not to hear Cafu's nonsense and said to himself: "You are not needed yet, but in the next two months, when I go to sea, I may I need your help." "Going to sea?" Kafu was surprised: "You don't want us to go to sea with you, do you? That's not possible. Lord Sachs ordered me to stay here. It's okay for me to move around. If I follow you out to sea, it will be a blatant disobedience." "It's not that serious!" Ivan frowned. "It's more serious than you think, Viscount Alvin!" Cafu sighed. "I have no interest in your own combat power. I just want to lend these blood-sucking larvae in your hands as water ghost troops. If you don't go to sea with me, how should I command those blood-sucking larvae?" Ivan As he spoke, he turned his attention to Sika. It would be good if he could take this opportunity to learn insect spells from him. "Is this a problem" Cafu followed Ivan's gaze and patted Sika's shoulder heavily: "Yes, Sika, when the time comes, you will accompany Viscount Ivan to the sea to fight on my behalf. "Hey, Mr. Kafu, I also accepted Mr. Sax's order. Why do I have to leave?" Sika looked surprised. "Because my status is higher than yours, if something happens to you, I will??Even Viscount Irwin can say good things for you in front of Lord Sachs, but if something happens to me, besides Viscount Irvine, are you still qualified to say good things for me? " "This" Sika became entangled. "Then it's settled! "Kafu said. (To be continued)
