Chapter 1245: Chapter 1245

Reviewing the report, Du You shook his head, "So the Beastman Kingdom was just taken down ?"

Elsa nodded, her face bright with excitement, "Of course, now that the Beastman Kingdom has been integrated, my deterrence towards the Divine Flame Empire has grown even stronger. Also, there are now proposals to make me the queen."

"That’s great, you already had the title of queen, now it’s just official," Du You said with a smile.

"Humph, I don’t want to," Elsa began to act coy.

"In fact, there’s nothing bad about it, being a queen you can delegate tasks to others just like the master. We have our own territory, so we don’t need to toil all day like other kings," Lin Yucha said.

Hearing this, Elsa fell silent for a while, then nodded.

"So, how are you handling the Lion People’s escape? Upcoming, we need to initiate various major events on the eastern part of the continent. It would be bad if the Beastman Empire finds an excuse to attack us."

"I have thought about it, of course. I need to learn from the development model of humans, no, a more advanced development model. Thus, I decided to build a large number of fortresses on the border for defense."

"Fortresses? We don’t have the technology for high-tier city walls. Neither I nor the Kingdom of Hanhai stored such capabilities. It seems we’ll only have access to the relevant technology after taking down the Divine Flame Empire. The special buildings we’ve constructed in our territories simply aren’t suitable for that purpose."

"As long as we have powerful individuals, it’s fine. The Beastman never cared much for such things. Walls are merely there to reduce trouble and protect the weaker ones. Those above tier four wouldn’t bother with such hassles."

"Alright, as long as you’re happy," Du You patted Elsa’s head. Then he turned and said, "The situation here has gradually stabilized, so we don’t need to stay here any longer. Let’s return to Earth for some rest, then find a world suitable for us to train properly in. We don’t need to hurry to break through to tier six."

Before, Du You was somewhat inflated, feeling that after the great battle, his power had completely settled, and he had eagerly used the newly earned Crystal Coins to advance to level 50.

Of course, with a shortage of Crystal Coins, only the majority of their skills reached level 50, while a few skills remained at level 49. Initially, Du You intended to enhance them further once he acquired more Crystal Coins.

However, what Du You did not expect was the substantial impact of the final level advancement; the effect certainly would not be less significant than previous ones. Thus, after the upgrades, Du You immediately felt that familiar sense of power swelling, not just himself but the two sisters as well, all of them feeling invincible.

Du You knew this was an illusion and also understood it was because the advancement was too rapid.

After recognizing the problem, Du You decided not to pursue breaking through to tier six anytime soon. When his power had settled, he could start the tier six advancement tasks.

At their level, advancement tasks could be initiated at any time without the difficulty increasing due to delays.

Simultaneously, the tier six Skill Hall proved its effectiveness; Du You felt it as skills were perfected at nearly the pace of one skill per day, providing an excellent foundation for the future.

Meanwhile, the trio’s advanced skills were still far from reaching their maximum values.

Elsa pouted, "Why do we have to leave again, can’t you stay with me longer?" Follow current novᴇls on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝔫𝔢𝔱

Seeing Elsa’s sullen expression, Du You said irritably, "You can come to Earth as well. Besides, the upcoming battles in this place will slow down considerably. According to Shaliya’s plan, the fighting might continue for several years."

Unfortunately, there were still too few of their people; although they had produced many subjects, there were not many intellectually capable individuals among them, and nurturing them would take a lot of time.

Shaliya was intentionally delaying. In a few years, once she had cultivated a large number of grassroots leaders, they would be able to thoroughly consolidate their conquered territory. Moreover, during these years, they would accumulate a substantial number of tier five and tier six experts. With so many experts, they could advance or retreat as needed, laying a solid foundation for conquering the entire continent.

Because of Shaliya’s control, for a long time, tier four combatants would be considered experts and progress would be incredibly slow.

For the Divine Flame Empire, this was a tactic of boiling frogs in warm water, but they would have to continue with it. Even the nobles probably could not discern the specific situation and would continue to idle.

This period was when Du You should attend to other matters. Given his current influence over the Yalan Continent, and the time difference with Earth, what amounted to several years on the Yalan Continent might be less than a year, or at least around half a year, on Earth. This half-year would be his time to break through to tier six.

Although Elsa was not satisfied, she ended up deciding to follow Du You back to Earth for a rest after giving some instructions.

Before leaving, they still needed to prepare things here properly. Li’er had secretly become Shaliya’s apprentice, learning everything about managing a territory under her.

Meanwhile, Luo Jia acted as the general commander, organizing a large group of people to learn as they fought. This grand battle was treated by Luo Jia as an educational opportunity; after all, nothing suited teaching like actual combat.

At the same time, as their advance slowed down, the nobles once again felt safe. Except for those who had already lost their territories or were about to lose them, everyone else gradually settled down.

People did not understand what was going on, and even the royal family was clueless. Since tier six experts couldn’t act rashly and tier five seemed only to act when provoked, it became a contest of lower-level forces.

As the Third Prince gradually made a name for himself on the battlefield, his position solidified. Other princes could not bear it any longer. Before long, except for the youngest prince, the others joined the battlefield. Some even headed north, apparently capturing Beastmen as slaves, which only intensified the animosity on both sides.

Not just the White Fox’s military forces, but other Beastman Clans, unrestrained by internal national issues, demonstrated a ferocious style of fighting, which many Human Race armies, especially the noble legions, found difficult to adapt to.

In any case, the overall situation was incredibly stable under these circumstances, allowing Du You to return to the long-missed Earth. Since he had not informed others, there weren’t any troubles to bother him.
