"Young Hero Li, where did you get so many military supplies?"

Qu Sheng finally couldn't resist his curiosity.

"Bought."

Li Mo maintained the passage to the Small World while lost in thought.

Okay, he wasn't daydreaming.

There were too many notification sounds in his ears, ringing every second, and more than one at a time, making his head buzz.

Forget counting, we can't even keep up with the sights.

"Bought...?"

Commander Qu nearly choked on his own saliva.

"Rest assured, Commander, I have absolutely not done anything illegal or disorderly. These things were all obtained through legitimate means."

As Li Mo spoke, he added:

"Oh, right, besides military supplies, there are some other things."

Some items need to be transported carefully and handled with care.

The words had barely left his mouth.

Bump--

The compacted loess soil was kicked up with dust, revealing rows of ballistae with intricate inscriptions, their cold gleam under the lamplight sending chills down one's spine.

There were also boxes of metal crates that reeked of explosive energy; it was unclear what was inside.

However, Qu Sheng, in his Inner Scene Realm, felt a strong sense of crisis at first glance, which immediately alerted him.

The stuff inside is definitely not a good thing.

There's also Thunder Beast Skin Drum as tall as three people... and Array Stone engraved with Array Pattern, exuding the aura of mountains...

"..."

Qu Sheng stared at the pile of weapons that were strictly prohibited by law and fell into deep thought.

Legitimate means?

What are the legitimate ways to obtain these weapons?

Even the ones in Greenwood Camp aren't as fine!

"Brother Li, what is this?"

Huang Donglai's eyes lit up; he loved these kinds of highly lethal 'external objects'.

"That's Rongyuan Military Crossbow. Even Inner Scene experts wouldn't dare to take it head-on. If activated with Profound Crystal, its power would be even greater, but unfortunately, it breaks after only a few uses."

What about this one?

"Thunderbolt Fire Pill, wait! Be gentle, this thing is easy to explode. If one explodes, the whole thing will explode, and the entire military camp will be blown to smithereens."

"Hiss... Could I borrow one to study?"

Just be careful.

"Oh, Brother Li, you know me."

Li Mo carefully took out the piles of weapons.

Looking at the gradually filling grain and fodder in the warehouse, as well as the unique military equipment, Qu Sheng was initially shocked, then excited and ecstatic, and finally somewhat numb.

There are too many.

So much so that turbulent waves have become the norm for him.

Moreover, Young Hero Li also said that this is not all of them, but only the first batch.

He remained silent for a long time, neither asking Li Mo about the origin of these things nor how they were delivered.

"Young Hero Li, why did you do this?"

Qu Sheng couldn't quite understand this young man.

These things combined are priceless.

It can be used to establish a sect or to squander money for ten lifetimes.

Li Mo could have left, taking his Cold Fairy with him, and departing without a trace.

He returned anyway, taking great risks, bringing back military supplies and weapons that defied all conventions.

Qu Sheng had many questions, but he didn't ask any of them.

Not long after.

The camp was brightly lit.

The imperial guards rode swiftly, relaying orders far and wide:

"By order of the commander, Young Hero Li, you shall generously contribute funds to reward the entire army!"

Before a battle, ensuring the soldiers are well-fed and watered is essential to boosting morale.

As the tent flaps opened one by one, the soldiers stopped what they were doing and looked in surprise and joy toward the direction of the messenger guards.

Reward the troops?

The soldiers hadn't heard those four words for a very long time. For a long period, even the pensions for the deceased were meager. It was only thanks to the effective management of the army that no mutiny or internal strife occurred.

Many people have privately discussed that if things continue like this, the Greenwood Camp will not even be able to maintain its organizational structure.

The name called out by the guards was like a light in the darkness for them.

"Thank you very much Young Hero Li!"

The shouts were deafening.

Meanwhile, the three of them headed towards the central command tent.

Hearing the rising and falling shouts, Qu Sheng cupped his hands and performed a deep bow:

"This salute is performed on behalf of the soldiers."

"The soldiers of the Greenwood Camp haven't received their full pay in a long time."

Li Mo did not yield.

After a moment of silence, he smiled again:

"Now, Commander Qu, how much more confident are you of victory?"

"For some reason, when I see you, I always feel like it's... a perfect match!"

During the conversation.

The three arrived at the central command tent.

With the supply problem temporarily resolved, the generals in the main tent, who had been waiting for a long time, began to discuss the battle situation based on the military reports.

"We have no worries about the rear now. We just need to hold Greenwood City and wait for the Prince to send troops to defend it."

"The tribes of the Southern Border have only a limited number of soldiers compared to us, but they have various Calamity Beast to aid them. Can we hold our ground?"

The defending Square has a very high chance of winning, even against an enemy several times their size.

But the enemies that came this time, the humans who were coerced were secondary; the most difficult to deal with were the Calamity Beast that were revered as 'Witch Spirit'.

Greenwood City has withstood small-scale hordes of Calamity Beast on several occasions.

But this time, the Calamity Beast, like an army, carried a very strong purpose and were extremely disciplined, which was clearly different from the past.

"This doesn't seem like Calamity Beast horde."

Listening to the generals' discussion, Li Mo voiced his doubts:

"Why do I feel like I'm fighting a war against an enemy country?"

That's not wrong.

Qu Sheng sat in the head seat and said in a somber tone:

"Many of the tribes that came to Greenwood City are Great Shang Remnants, and there are also experts from the Demon Summoning Cult Sect involved. There is also a man named Han Zhen, whose cultivation level is unknown, but whose methods are particularly strange. The Calamity Beast seem to all regard him as their leader."

"Han Zhen..."

The familiar name was mentioned again, and Li Mo glanced at everyone present and said:

"He was once Seventh Realm Profound Mastery, and only survived by using Secret Method."

"The Seventh Realm?!"

The atmosphere in the arena fell silent for a moment. The generals looked solemn, and some opened their mouths but did not know what to say.

The Seventh Realm is practically the pinnacle of power among all the well-known and powerful beings in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Even the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Ranking List no longer records their rankings, because they all wield a 'Dao'.

There is no inherent strength or weakness in the Dao; every master of the Profound Mastery possesses unfathomable abilities that defy comparison.

The atmosphere was somewhat tense.

Li Mo chuckled at the opportune moment, "However, this person is actually a defeated opponent of mine and Ying Bing."

He wasn't really sure about it.

Because Han Zhen cannot be judged by the standards of ordinary peers. Han Zhen was not their peer at all, but an old monster.

What if Han Zhen had a way to temporarily return to his peak, even at a great cost?

Nobody can say for sure.

But Li Mo didn't want to dampen everyone's morale; only with confidence in winning could they possibly win.

"Young Hero Li is right. If he and Cold Fairy could defeat Han Zhen once, they can definitely defeat him a second time!"

"The skeletons in the tomb have simply been resurrected!"

"It's not just him, there's also Helian Wu from the Duoyue Tribe who's not easy to deal with."

The generals encouraged each other and began discussing the matter again.

Li Mo silently assessed himself in his heart.

He can now enhance the power of the military formation. If he were in that state and added the power of the world, a single Heaven-Flipping Hammer would probably be too much for even an External Scene Realm expert to handle.

There's also the Somersault Cloud, the Diamond Indestructible, and the Seventy-Two Transformations.

And.

There's still one thing he hasn't done.

The Wukong Seeking the Dao Diagram can now be further deduced.

By then, my strength will be even greater.

Furthermore, it is widely known.

Li, a gentleman, is a genius.

While he may not be an expert in military strategy, he possesses a profound understanding of the art of King of Brawling, including many methods for overcoming stronger opponents with weaker ones.

War is just a lot of people fighting, which makes perfect sense.

He now has many brilliant ideas in his mind, but he doesn't know if they are practical.

We must win.

Li Mo clenched his fist.

Aside from other reasons, he never forgot why the war had come ahead of schedule.

Jade Phoenix God.

The Jade Phoenix God had already merged with the Ice Block.

The author will try his best to ensure the storyline is interesting.

As everyone knows, I've been a genius since I was a child!

Also, dear readers, don't worry that Little Li will become too profound in the future. This story will still be mainly lighthearted, just retaining a little bit of profundity. The slight blunder was intentional, hehe.
