Chapter 864: Chapter 365: Rapid Troop Expansion, Harvest, and Power Enhancement
These crucial pieces of intelligence gave Lear confidence.
Especially the part about the final war deadline, which is extremely important.
Previously, it was all about persevering, not knowing when it would end, nor in what state it would end.
This exerted tremendous pressure on Weilu City.
After all, this time they were facing not an ordinary enemy, but a divine pantheon, with a hidden hand capable of hunting gods behind it.
Now that there is a definite timeline, there is hope.
Under Lear’s will, Weilu City maintained steadiness and began a calm and measured counterattack.
The Wild Pantheon noticed the subtle change in atmosphere but became increasingly frenzied.
Especially the God of the Wild and the Stars, this pantheon’s sovereign couldn’t hold it together anymore.
He personally took command, launching fierce attacks for half a month without making any progress.
This was a territory planned to be conquered in three days!
The strength and resilience of Weilu City made him feel unprecedented pressure.
Moreover, the urgency from the rear increased, causing him to breathe heavily under that enormous psychological pressure.
In the past few days, he lost face, and his authority significantly decreased.
It is foreseeable that many under the Wild Pantheon will now have divided loyalties.
At such a crucial historical turning point, this is fatal.
Yet, the deadlock at the front can’t be broken simply with pressure.
He can only bury his head in deploying more troops; he couldn’t believe it, one million wouldn’t break through, but ten million wouldn’t?
As time slowly passed by, the pressure on Katana had reached a critical point.
On the battlefield, there was no more space for the Wild Pantheon to continue deploying troops...everywhere was crowded with people.
On August 11, the Underground City built by the Vine Fairy beneath Katana was finally completed.
Residents on the earth’s surface were able to enter for refuge.
After everyone went down, the Vine Fairy directly closed all the entrances and exits...
Even if the enemy breached, it would take a lot of time and effort to break through these entrances.
Thus, all thirty thousand ancient humans had entered underground.
The army no longer needed to worry about the safety of ordinary civilians and could fight more flexibly.
By the evening of the 11th, another piece of good news came...Betina and the chieftain of two-headed ogres successfully opened the ancient ruins 200 kilometers northwest.
And they retrieved from the core treasure vault the secret technique of cultivating 5-star units—the Dragonfly Knights!
Dragonflies are a unique swamp unit, having proactively nested in the swamp over half a year ago.
Once adult, the dragonfly’s level can rise to Level 15, and upon reaching their peak, even rise to Level 18.
However, due to the number being only a few hundred, they have been reproducing these days, and Lear hadn’t paid much attention.
Taking the secret technique offered by Betina, he examined it.
Dragonfly Knight Cultivation Secret Technique
Level: Special
Required resources: Adequate flesh and blood, a knight capable of resonating with dragonfly bloodline.
Traits: Immersing with spiritual power enables direct control of the secret technique, capable of training 5-star units—Dragonfly Knights.
Note: The knight’s bloodline must resonate with the dragonfly for success; if blood resonance is over 95%, it can break boundaries and advance to Level 19 Dragonfly Knight.
Evaluation: An ancient training secret technique capable of training powerful units.
After reading, Lear was pleasantly surprised.
"Goodness, so Level 18 isn’t the end? There’s still a chance to break through to Level 19?"
And the requirements aren’t complicated, first is flesh, and second...bloodline resonance!
The secret technique does not specify what race the warrior can act as a knight, it seems time will be needed for searching...fortunately, he has many races on hand.
With a slight mental move, spiritual power was injected, directly controlling this secret technique.
Then Kalanis was directed to command the battle, while he went to the dragonfly’s habitat and brought these unique swamp creatures back to the Swamp Divine Kingdom.
Although the authority of the God of the Wild and the Stars sealed power above the extraordinary, it couldn’t seal him.
He had no intention of breaking through, now the best scenario is for both sides to remain at a stalemate until the 17th, allowing the Goddess of Misfortune to achieve the final victory.
Any mid-duration change could be a bad thing.
However, Lear always considered the worst outcomes in his dealings, as he did with this war, and as he continues to do now.
The dragonflies offered no resistance when facing the god who ruled the swamp, directly submitting.
They obediently followed Lear’s command, flying into the Swamp Divine Kingdom.
These unique units are five meters long, with a wingspan of about three meters; they look not much different from giant dragons, except the tail isn’t a dragon’s tail, but equipped with a sharp scorpion-like sting.
Glistening coldly.
Its head is an elongated version of a dragon’s head, with sharp teeth embedded like short knives, slightly opening the mouth, revealing its ferocity.
Once the dragonflies entered the Divine Kingdom, Lear was somewhat surprised.
Their numbers had soared to five or six thousand...although most were still somewhat immature young dragonflies.
Also recalled his intelligence—the dragonfly’s laying capacity was exceptionally astonishing, producing forty to fifty per year as long as there was sufficient food.
And it’s parthenogenesis, no mating needed, all are production machines.
When they migrated to the swamp over half a year ago, the initial four or five hundred dragonflies were already pregnant.
These immature dragonflies were evidently the outcome of the preceding ones.
Such production capacity rivals the Three-tailed Pigs.
Lear was quite satisfied.
However, the only weakness of dragonflies might be their combat power, which is somewhat weaker compared to other units of the same level, their strength lies in attack power, but their body is relatively fragile.
