This message signifies the end of the standoff between the two World Cluster, and the Wizard World is now poised for a major offensive!
The Elemental School hoped to buy time through passive fighting, but they didn't expect the Body Refinement School wizards to fight so quickly, conquering the rest of the world in less than twenty years.
The large number of Level-Four Lord of Souls that emerged from the Returning Breath World were of little use. Under the relentless attacks of the Body Refinement School wizards, these newly promoted Level-Four Lord of Souls died in droves.
The information obtained by Black Soluo reveals that the command structure of the Returning Breath World was also very confused. They discussed more than once why these newly promoted Level-Four Lord of Souls could still be of some use before the wizard army took turns on duty, and even achieve their expected goals and expand their gains, which once made them think that the mass production plan had succeeded.
If given more time, they could even launch another attack on the Wizard World itself!
But when the wizard army took over, not only were their expanded gains quickly taken back, but even the foothold they had barely managed to gain was pushed aside by the wizard army.
Even in the Forest Farm World, which held the greatest promise of becoming a world that could serve as a gateway to another world, the wizarding army destroyed the entire world without granting them Returning Breath World.
This tough approach is completely different from the previous style of warfare that only knew how to defend.
Up to now, the Returning Breath World is unaware of the internal struggles within the Wizard World. Even with half of the Stigmata Wizard holding them back, they can still be driven back.
Continuing the conquest of the Returning Breath World would not be as simple as dividing the War World. Along the space routes to the Returning Breath World's homeland, there are at least a thousand worlds under the Returning Breath World's rule.
These worlds have no World Lord; if they did, they were killed long ago by the Lord of Souls of the Returning Breath World. These worlds are occupied by Lord of Souls.
The wizarding army cannot reach the homeland of the Returning Breath World Returning Breath World without conquering and defeating all these worlds one by one.
This time, the Lord of Souls are on the defensive, while they are on the offensive.
One thousand worlds—actually 1024 worlds—must all be conquered; this is an incredibly massive war.
To accomplish such a massive war, the Body Refinement Wizard School alone is insufficient, and the century-long rotating war model is even less viable. There is a high probability that the world just conquered in the past century will be abandoned by the Elemental Wizard School under some pretext in the next century.
If we consider the time span of six hundred years for the one hundred War World here, then it would take six thousand years for a thousand worlds to fight, and no one can endure such a long time.
Such a terrifying period would leave many low-level wizards with no time to study and learn, forcing them to spend their entire lives on the battlefield, which would undoubtedly be a huge loss to the Wizard World.
We must accelerate the war's progress and hasten its end!
[According to the supreme instructions of the Supreme Lord, whoever conquers a world will receive 30% of its profits, while the remaining 70% will be distributed by the War Command to each level of wizard based on their war merits.]
When all the Stigmata Wizard saw the second message, they were undoubtedly excited. This message clearly stated that most of the wealth from the war would be distributed to all wizards, regardless of whether they were First-Level Wizard, Level Two Wizard, or Level Three Wizard. As long as they contributed to the war, they could get a share of the spoils.
Low-level wizards are helpless. They lack resources and have low strength. Every time they have the opportunity to obtain energy crystals, the amount they obtain is pitifully small. An expedition that takes decades can only yield a few hundred energy crystals in the end.
If I want to do something, this amount of energy crystals is not enough at all.
Even after Leo advanced to the Stigmata Wizard level, he still worried about resources, let alone low-level wizards.
Now that the Supreme Lord have issued such an order, wizards of all levels will be inspired with terrifying enthusiasm to participate in the conquest. Even wizards of the Elemental School will probably find it hard to resist such a great temptation.
This is a calculated scheme, a scheme devised by the Body Refinement School specifically against the Elemental School.
If the Elemental School continue to fight passively, the Stigmata Wizard who have worked so hard to conquer this world will be the first to disagree.
Under such lure of benefits, it's even possible that those Stigmata Wizard who were pre-arranged to participate in hundreds of worlds to deliberately avoid war might be recalled to participate in this lavish feast.
The Returning Breath World is nearing its end, and conquering these thousand worlds is far less difficult than a normal expedition.
This isn't much harder than finding money!
Leo could not contain his excitement either.
Before his rotation, the War Command granted him a perk: he could claim all the worlds conquered within a century, up to a maximum of five.
There is only one medium-sized Thousand Pools World now, and he still has four spots left!
He could easily occupy four worlds over the next eighty years, without needing to War Command or hand over 70% of the revenue. He would have a greater advantage than other Stigmata Wizard.
"Help me find a suitable world, preferably a medium-sized world with no defensive capabilities."
In his mind's eye, Leo left a message for Black Soluo: "Of the thousand worlds, there will inevitably be worlds with strong defenses and worlds with weak defenses. With Black Soluo as an undercover agent, Leo can find worlds that are both profitable and easy to conquer. This way, he can carve out the biggest slice of the pie over the next eighty years."
The war allocation and the first batch of expeditionary personnel have not yet been assigned, but every Stigmata Wizard is already eager to get started and is waiting for orders from the War Command.
Leo even saw in the Fate Wizard Book that many Stigmata Wizard wanted to abolish the century-long rotation system.
For the sake of the great wizarding civilization, let the war continue all the way to the homeland of the Returning Breath World.
Although his motives are debatable, Leo also agrees with the proposal.
At this rate of fighting spirit, who knows, by the time they return from their century-long rest, not a single one of the thousand worlds will be left.
The Wizard World has over four thousand Stigmata Wizard; even if they were distributed equally, it would take four Stigmata Wizard to share a single world.
With such a huge temptation of profit, Leo wondered how many Stigmata Wizard would still be able to stick to their principles.
Even the Beast Blood Boiling Stigmata Wizard, who is supposedly on the special training list, would likely succumb to such temptation and join the battlefield after advancing to the Level-Six Stigmata Great Wizard.
In this way, the thousand worlds can be divided almost instantly, and the Wizard World can even launch attacks on all one thousand worlds simultaneously.
Perhaps the War Command hadn't anticipated the Stigmata Wizard ' excitement, and thus didn't immediately issue a list of expedition members.
They are likely also facing a major headache, unsure of who to send or how to handle the situation. After all, the 61 worlds here also need Stigmata Wizard to stay behind; they can't abandon their rear just because there are huge benefits in the distance.
Before receiving the expedition list from the War Command, Leo first received intelligence from his clone, Black Soluo.
" The Returning Breath World is no longer capable of simultaneously defending a thousand worlds. 521 worlds have been completely abandoned, and there are no Lord of Souls within them. All their power is being concentrated in other worlds. This is the information just issued by the command headquarters. I have also been assigned to defend a small world."
"Wouldn't it be a huge bargain for anyone who chooses these abandoned worlds?" Leo said with a smile.
There's absolutely no defense; you can just go in and take it all over. Taking it means getting a 30% cut of the profits—you can't even pick up money that fast.
"Things aren't that simple. Based on some information I got from a Level-Six Lord of Souls, these worlds that were told to give up contain extremely powerful traps. I don't know exactly what kind of traps they are, but their purpose is to kill a large number of the effective forces of the wizard army."
"I have sent you all the intelligence I know about the worlds. Several key worlds have relatively weak defenses, and valuable worlds have been marked. You can prioritize launching expeditions to these worlds now," said Black Soluo, the clone.
"Remember, never go on expeditions to those worlds that claim to have abandoned their defenses. I suspect that the Lord of Souls of the Returning Breath World already knew about the wizard spies within their ranks, and this message was deliberately sent back by them."
Before leaving to set up defenses, Black Soluo, the clone, kept reminding Leo, because they all knew how meager their resources were. If they fell into a trap, it could leave Leo penniless in one fell swoop.
"Furthermore, news of your assassination attempt on the Supreme Lord has spread among all Lord of Souls. They all consider you invincible and treat you as an equal to Level-Six Stigmata Great Wizard. Therefore, among your subsequent opponents, there is a high probability that they will be either Level-Six Lord of Souls or Supreme Lord."
Leo: "..."
This is the result of recklessly demonstrating one's combat strength, which has attracted the attention of higher-level units.
Although it was expected, it came a little early.
Leo flipped through the star map provided by Black Soluo, noting the type of each world, the defensive forces, the number of Lord of Souls, and the approximate number of puppet armies.
Of the thousand worlds, Black Soluo managed to mark over seven hundred. He couldn't mark the remaining worlds because he didn't have enough information.
Shortly after Black Soluo's intelligence was delivered, the War Command also issued its message.
Unexpectedly, instead of issuing combat orders directly, they released a star map identical to Black Soluo's, marking the locations of the worlds that needed to be conquered. However, the information was not as detailed as Black Soluo's, lacking detailed data on the Lord of Souls and the number of puppet armies.
A world marked with only two colors: one color indicates a defensive force, and the other color indicates an undefended force.
