Chapter 1209: Chapter 1209

Wishing everyone a happy National Day.

As a result, the final step was interrupted at this critical moment. After careful consideration, Du You decided to take a gamble, to first deal with that tier-six Magical Beast and then consider the matter of nation-building.

"Let’s start by hunting the Magical Beast. If we obtain the tier-six branch of the armed forces’ building blueprints, unifying the eastern part of the continent won’t be too difficult. Even if we fail, we’ll only lose some troops. We can still complete our plan, just one or two months later."

"I’ll listen to big brother," Elsa was the first to express her stance. In Elsa’s eyes, Du You was the most important. As for nation-building, it didn’t matter if she had to wait a bit longer.

"Since it won’t take much longer, then let’s tackle both tasks simultaneously. Let’s start proceeding with our plan. I believe Holy Fox City won’t suffer any troop losses this time." Shaliya suddenly proposed.

"That’s right, this time Holy Fox City just needs to provide some sacrifices, the main forces will be mobilized from Shenghai Kingdom itself."

Shenghai Kingdom had maritime territories, making it much easier to secretly mobilize powerful troops. On the other hand, if the White Fox clan rashly moved too many troops, it might not go unnoticed, and getting discovered wouldn’t be surprising.

"I’ll go with you," suddenly, Elsa raised her arm and said loudly.

"On the territory side, I have the deputy lord, Li’er, who usually manages things. It doesn’t matter if I’m not there."

Li’er was a native Fox Person, saved by Elsa, and younger than Elsa. Although her cultivation talent was not that great, her talent in management was quite extraordinary, stronger than that of Ke Jisi.

After observing for a period, Elsa formalized Li’er into Law Formalization, making her a special territory follower, then handed over the position of deputy lord to Li’er to manage.

Since Du You and the others had not met Li’er, they hesitated. After much persuasion from Elsa, Du You finally agreed. "Fine, we’ll do as you say. But if anything goes wrong this time, you won’t be allowed to do this again."

Who did Elsa learn this hands-off management style from? Du You would never admit it was from him.

Amidst Elsa’s cheers, Du You gave a few instructions, then terminated the communication. Next, it was time to mobilize the territory’s troops. To ensure foolproof success, this time Du You directly mobilized five thousand troops. These weren’t just any ordinary troops, but five thousand tier-five branches of the armed forces, all high-end, which ordinary people could rarely even see.

Such a large-scale mobilization, if it wasn’t launched from the sea and was discovered by the Divine Flame Empire, they surely wouldn’t ignore it.

After all, five thousand tier-fives, if used well, could even slaughter a tier-six. If they knew that these were not just recently advanced to tier-five, it would be more than just vigilance.

Meanwhile, Du You also began to inspect the changes within himself. With several months of tempering, his skills were mostly refined. Moreover, he had mostly adapted to his own power.

Next, after a period of battle and consolidation, he could take the final step of tier-five, preparing for the advancement to tier-six.

A student still in school was already preparing to advance to tier-six; if people knew this, they’d probably be scared to death.

Looking at the panel, his basic sword technique, the only basic skill that hadn’t reached the full level, had actually achieved full level status. This came naturally with his strength increase, not because he trained it. However, for Du You himself, this really wasn’t that useful.

Next up were his various advanced skills, and the improvements to these skills were also significant.

Advanced Skills: Advanced Dark Magic Power (48), Advanced Spiritual Perception (47), Magic Power Stability (46), Mysterious Revival (46), Spiritual Shield (46), Dark Element Affinity (46), Night Body (47), Magic Power Nebula (46), Skill Handyman (46)

Advanced Dark Magic Power was the main magic skill Du You had been focusing on recently, which had been improved to level 48. Advanced Spiritual Perception, due to frequent use, reached an impressive height of level 47.

Additionally, when he last exterminated those Undead Mages, he absorbed a lot of dark magic power in the castle they left behind, resulting in his Night Body also reaching level 47.

As for the other skills, they were from previous cultivation, and Du You brought them up to level 46 with this breakthrough, still behind his own level. But even so, they greatly enhanced his own abilities.

Looking at the two sisters, their advanced skills had also made remarkable progress.

Advanced Skills: Advanced Demon Extermination Power (47), Concentration and Calm (47), Rapid Shooting (47), Mysterious Revival (46), Magic Power Nebula (46), Advanced Spiritual Perception (46), Spiritual Shield (46), Pursuit Hunting (46), Magic Power Stability (46), Skill Handyman (46), Bow Enhancement (37)

The two sisters’ Advanced Demon Extermination Power, although not as strong as his Advanced Dark Magic Power, they hadn’t focused on this skill, so it just reached level 47. Concentration and Calm and Rapid Shooting, which they concentrated on improving through various battles, reached an impressive height of level 47. These were the fruits of their labor.

The rest of the skills, due to lack of time and effort, also only reached level 46. However, the Bow Enhancement they had been working hard to improve lately had been raised to level 37, although not usable now.

But with such pace of cultivation, when the both of them reach tier-six, this skill should accordingly be enhanced to tier-six level. By then, even if they don’t have tier-six weapons, it won’t affect their combat strength too much.

"Very good, a significant increase in strength. According to our current strength, among tier-fives, even if we’re not invincible, there are probably few who can match us." The reason for saying this was because of the equipment issue.

Du You didn’t know if others would be lucky enough to have a complete set of tier-five equipment. If such an enemy appeared, it wasn’t certain they could win in single combat.

However, Du You and the others had many tactics, especially in terms of survival strategies; Du You didn’t believe any current tier-five individuals could threaten his life. Of course, Du You wouldn’t be so arrogant as to think he was invincible.

After all, this was just tier-five level, and against a tier-six, he definitely wouldn’t be an opponent. This hunt’s target was a tier-six, precisely to gauge the tip of the iceberg of a tier-six’s strength in this battle.
