Chapter 366: Chapter 366

The new trait, Blood-colored Demon Shadow, is extremely dangerous, but Su Xi doesn’t pay it any mind. The source of this content ɪs noᴠelfire.net

In the Golden Pansy Territory, even if two traits are identical, the effects they ultimately produce are vastly different.

Take for instance, Critical Strike Rate and Evasion Rate—even if Su Xi and the Demon Shadow had exactly the same rates, with the protection of the Golden Pansy Territory, Su Xi would be stronger and could easily defeat the Demon Shadow.

And with the addition of this Tier Six Legendary-level troop, the strength of the territory’s military is greatly enhanced.

Because ascending to Tier Six grants a tier reward: [Successfully breaking through to Super-Tier, Soul +40, Life Value +20000, Spiritual Energy Value +10000, Physical Defense +1450, Spiritual Resistance +1320, Divine Resistance +500]

This Tier Six reward alone makes Tier Six troops perceptibly powerful.

Su Xi instantly becomes as formidable as the Flame Demon, with life value and spiritual strength exploding, and attack and defense so powerful that low-tier troops dare not meet their gaze; even from several hundred or thousand meters away, it is extremely dangerous to glance at them.

Once Su Xi has fully recovered, Lin Rui immediately begins assembling troops to officially intervene in the conflict between Count Frans and the Templar Order.

Lu Weite, a director of the Lusen Chamber of Commerce, personally approaches Lin Rui, patting his chest and vowing, "Lord Lin Rui, to show my sincerity, I will personally guide you this time."

Lin Rui nods and takes him to walk toward the Saint Hall of the Goddess of Fortune. The domain’s army is gathered on the huge plaza in front of the Saint Hall of Fortune.

As soldiers gather from all directions, the plaza is now shining with the glint of armor and fluttering flags.

Lin Rui calmly leads Lu Weite to the front of the military formation: "Count Frans’s performance far exceeds your estimates; now it has been a cycle and he is still in a stalemate with the Templar Order. Explorers reported that his three cavalry battalions even accomplished a brilliant encirclement attack, cutting down hundreds of Holy Temple Knights. The Templar Order has had to reinforce and pull troops to the front repeatedly."

After speaking, Lin Rui turns solemnly to Lu Weite: "So, after gathering the army, I plan to directly attack the rear fortresses and treasury of the Templar Order. For quite some time, we will be fighting alone. As the guide, you must make the most perfect route plan possible."

Lu Weite immediately stands straight and feels deeply impressed. The Lord of the Golden Pansy Territory always manages to surprise.

Even when facing such a formidable foe as the Templar Order, he dares to strike boldly, seizing the greatest spoils of victory. The territory’s army does not immediately join up with Count Frans’s forces for combined operations, but instead takes advantage of the intense standoff at the front to march directly to the rear camp of the Templar Order and seize wealth.

"Lord Lin Rui, rest assured. I will plan the optimal route for you, helping you quickly capture the most important camp of the Templar Order."

The reason for Lu Weite’s resolute attitude, of course, is the confidence given to him by the Golden Pansy Army.

Standing in front of the military formation, the first sight is of two Legendary-level troops! Su Xi holds a long saber, standing calmly with arms crossed. Death’s Wings crouches beside her, like a little black dog trying to be cute.

It has to try to be cute. This woman has gotten what she wanted and become its stepmother!

Even more terrifying, this woman not only upgraded from Epic-level to Legendary-level but also from Tier Five to Super-Tier, accompanied by a Blood-colored Demon Shadow with strength nearly matching hers, wielding a legendary long saber. If they fight again, this stepmother would probably just need a few strikes to cut it to pieces.

If even a Tier Four troop of Legendary-level gets beaten this badly, one can only imagine how tragic it would be for soldiers of other forces.

And standing neatly beside the two Legendary-level soldiers are six Epic-level Holy Grail Knights and one Celestial Punishment Hunter.

The nine of them charging together would be unstoppable; no defense line or phalanx could withstand their assault.

So stationed behind them is a whole squad of Heroic Spirit Knights. Once the nine soldiers at the front break through the gap, they will rush in with support, expanding the battle line.

Further back is every knight led by Lin Rui and over five hundred soldiers commanded by Hanna.

Even just the elite human soldiers form a densely packed force of nearly a thousand, with phalanx after phalanx standing orderly in the plaza, ready to march.

At the very end, behind the human soldiers, is the Undead Army commanded by Audrey.

Her troops also include a whole brigade, twelve hundred elite soldiers, and a skeleton sea composed of over eight thousand Tier One and Two skeleton soldiers.

So many soldiers, when gathered, become a boundless sea, with their formation stretching from the plaza’s edge to beyond the territory.

They have even begun to equip banners now. In the new cycle, the ruins reconnected with the Blood God Demon Realm, and the territory army went inside to purge the Blood God Demon, acquiring a Strategic Treasure and a considerable amount of war command items.

The "Strategic Treasure: Skull Sanctity" has already been acquired twice, so this time what dropped was "Strategic Treasure: Officer’s Military Soul."

[Strategic Treasure: Officer’s Military Soul: The sergeant major is the most valiant warrior in any army. Once equipped, all soldiers in the territory are guided by the Officer’s Military Soul: Morale +20, Life Value +200, Spiritual Energy Value +100, skill Close Combat Specialization lv3, Physique +3, Will +3, Wisdom +1, Soul +1, Close Combat Damage +15%, Close Combat Defense +15%, Attack Speed +15%.]

Lin Rui directly bestowed this Strategic Treasure to Hanna.

It was fortunate that this time "Strategic Treasure: Skull Sanctity" wasn’t acquired; otherwise, this human strategic artifact might not have been something Hanna, the Little Enchanting Demon, could equip.
