The First Overlord Is Born, the Powerful Dragon Girl and the Sixth Team Member! (Continued)
Her features became more defined and more alluring.
The corners of her forehead had a crystal-like sheen, her eyes were slightly upturned, and her black eyeliner even extended to the sides of her temples.
Her long black hair reached her waist, swaying gently in the night breeze like flowing shadows.
With a light leap, she jumped off the city wall.
Then he quickly walked to the wheelchair, bowed respectfully, and said, "Dragon Lord, thank you for your blessing. I have become stronger!"
Shen Xing nodded slightly. "Not bad, worthy of being the number one assassin in my territory."
"Go back and get used to your Overlord Rank abilities. I might need your power tomorrow."
Onyxia seemed to realize something as well, a cold glint flashing in her eyes. "As you command! I will drag any enemy who attempts to approach the Dragon Lord into the endless abyss of shadows!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she flashed and vanished into the shadows.
Shen Xing immediately logged off and contacted Ding Han to inquire about the matching progress of the Tier Four advancement material [Knight's Broken Blade].
And he was given priority in acquiring materials to match his dragon units.
After all, Onyxia has already reached the maximum level of Tier Three, and now she can prepare to break through to Tier Four and advance to Master.
Although, unlike before, Master of troop breakthrough no longer only requires absorbing advancement materials.
Some other conditions still need to be met.
But there's no harm in preparing in advance.
After finishing all that, Shen Xing logged back in and looked at the red-haired mage beside him. "Leina, what level are you now?"
"My lord, I am currently level 25," Leina replied softly.
Shen Xing nodded, not at all surprised.
After all, once they reach the Tier Three, their leveling speed becomes very slow.
Even with the Lotus Pond's triple speed activated, continuous leveling is still not possible.
Onyxia was able to reach the maximum level of 29 in a short time because she was already level 24 when she was first recruited into the territory.
Naturally, he was much faster than the other generals.
"It's alright, take your time," Shen Xing comforted her. "Let's go back to the Lotus Pond to cultivate."
"Yes, my lord."
Just as Leina was about to push her wheelchair back to the eastern district of the territory, a voice came from behind her.
"My lord, please wait a moment."
The two turned their heads and saw a middle-aged man dressed in light armor with a leather whip at his waist walking quickly towards them.
It was the same senior beast tamer who had recently been recruited into the territory.
"Kyle, what's wrong?" Shen Xing asked.
Beastmaster Kyle approached, bowed, and said respectfully, "My lord, it's like this: the plan I discussed with you not long ago—combining the Kodo Beast with the Demon Turret —has yielded positive results."
"Therefore, I would like to ask you to come over and offer your guidance, to see if there is anything that can be improved."
Shen Xing also remembered this.
The animal trainer mentioned it briefly, and the trainer thought it was a good idea, so he approved it and even asked the blacksmith in the territory to assist.
Surprisingly, he actually managed to get results.
"Okay, let's go check it out while we're there."
"Yes, please follow me."
The animal trainer turned around and led the way at a safe distance.
Led by Kyle, they arrived at the northern part of the territory, near the industrial area.
At this moment, in the spacious open space in front, more than thirty Kodo Beast, each with a shoulder height of four or five meters and a body as robust as a small hill, were standing side by side.
But unlike what we've seen before, these Kodo Beasts have changed drastically.
Their enormous bodies are fitted with a skeleton made of metal, with four metal cantilevers extending to their limbs, making them appear very stable.
The back of the skeleton was made flat and open, with a dark red turret fixed to it by a thick metal arm.
The pitch-black cannon muzzle was pointed forward, as if brewing a destructive force.
From a distance, they resemble mobile war fortresses.
Several orcs stood behind the cannon, their faces filled with excitement.
Kyle solemnly stated, "My lord, after this period of training, these Kodo Beast can now understand many commands."
"The orc gunners above have also undergone extensive training; one is responsible for loading and the other for aiming, resulting in a very high hit rate."
"Combined with the Kodo Beast's size and this damage-resistant steel frame, it will definitely become a nightmare for enemies."
Shen Xing nodded, already able to imagine the scene of these behemoths appearing on the battlefield, smashing and destroying groups of enemies.
Kyle's combination perfectly blends the abilities of the Kodo Beast with the destructive power of the war cannon, making up for the weaknesses of both sides.
"Excellent, these Kodo Beasts are very helpful to the territory."
Shen Xing nodded in satisfaction and then asked, "Kyle, given your outstanding performance, I can give you a reward."
Is there anything you want?
"Uh..." The animal tamer paused for a moment, then said solemnly, "Providing us with warm shelter and delicious food is already an immense blessing."
"Training Kodo Beast is my job; I don't need any extra rewards, my lord."
"Really not?" Shen Xing asked with a light laugh. "You must have something you want to do, right? Like... sending a message to Black Hawk City?"
Upon hearing the last sentence, Kyle's eyes widened, and he looked like a cat whose tail had been grabbed!
He immediately knelt down, his forehead pressed to the ground, and said in a trembling voice, "My lord, I didn't mean to hide it from you, please forgive me!"
Shen Xing smiled and shook his head, saying, "There's no need to be so nervous. I'm not blaming you for this, and it's nothing."
"Everyone has their own secrets. As long as you sincerely serve the territory, I won't hold those secrets against you. On the contrary, I will even provide you with assistance."
Upon hearing this, Kyle's fear subsided somewhat, but lingering terror remained in his eyes.
Shen Xing continued, "Didn't you want to go to Black Hawk City to deliver a message?"
"In light of your recent performance, I hereby grant you permission to have an orc squad and a Hell War Chariot escort you there."
"You... what did you say?" Kyle looked up, his face blank. "You're going to send someone to escort me to deliver a message?"
He was completely stunned, and even thought he had misheard.
"Yes." Shen Xing nodded.
The reason Shen Xing brought this up was naturally because he also wanted to deal with Weideng Royal City.
If everything goes smoothly for Kyle, Black Hawk City can indeed send troops to eliminate Lord Haidesen, then I won't have to constantly be on guard against the army of Weideng Royal City.
Kyle was still somewhat incredulous, staring at him blankly.
Shen Xing smiled and said, "Alright, get up."
"Remember to go early and come back early; the Finger Worm and Kodo Beast in the territory are all waiting for you to feed them."
Kyle now understood that the lord wasn't testing him, but genuinely wanted to help him.
The beast tamer's face showed deep emotion as he solemnly replied, "Yes, Your Excellency!"
"I swear, I will return as soon as possible and contribute to the territory!"
Shen Xing nodded slightly, then let Leina push her away.
A moment later, Kyle stood up from the ground, his gaze fixed on the lord's retreating figure, his resolve growing ever stronger.
"Your Majesty, please hold on! Someone will come to rescue you soon!"
He clenched his fist and then strode away into the distance.
A short while later, a metal chariot engulfed in hellfire drove out from the open space outside the blacksmith's shop.
The vehicle contained twenty Tier Two orcs, all possessing at least Elite Rank combat power, as well as a newly promoted Tier Three Black Moon Knight Boss.
This lineup is more than enough to easily deal with all enemies below Tier Four.
"Boom..."
The chariot rumbled as it slowly drove into the depths of the fog.
After finishing all that, Shen Xing went to Xia Wanyin's territory and gave her the thick and hard Ancient Spirit Wood.
Then he returned to the Lotus Pond and began cultivating at three times the speed.
Time flies, and soon a day and a night have passed.
The next day, at dawn.
Before eight o'clock, Qin Lang called, urging Shen Xing to get up and assemble quickly.
Shen Xing replied speechlessly, "Okay."
Then I hung up the phone, woke up in my two-meter-wide executive bed, and went to the bathroom to wash up.
After arriving at the courtyard, it summoned the Fried Chicken and flew straight towards the city center.
Upon arriving at the Anomaly Handling Bureau, Shen Xing entered the elevator through the staff entrance at the back, without attracting the attention of any other players.
The elevator slowly ascended and soon arrived at the top floor.
Shen Xing pushed the wheelchair out of the elevator lobby, through the spacious hall, and came to a room in the corner.
As soon as you approach, a facial recognition verification message automatically pops up on the door.
"Beep! Membership card!"
With a clear announcement, the doors opened automatically to both sides.
At this moment, several familiar figures are sitting in the quiet tea room.
Qin Lang, dressed casually, and Xu Jiayi, wearing long sleeves, sat on the sofa and waved to him.
"Shen Xing, over here!"
On the opposite side, Zhou Zheng and Jiang Rong sat on either side, while Elder Wang, with his half-white hair, sat in the middle.
Shen Xing already knew the composition of the team heading to the Spiral Labyrinth.
"Shen Xing is here." Elder Wang said with a kind smile.
Shen Xing nodded and asked curiously, "Was it Elder Wang escorted us there for this mission?"
"Yes, the director had something come up, so I took over."
Elder Wang smiled slightly, then asked jokingly, "What, am I, a newly Master Rank, not qualified to lead you?"
"That's definitely not it," Shen Xing said with a smile. "Although Elder Wang is a newly Master Rank, he has accumulated so many years of experience at the Expert Realm, his foundation must be astonishing."
"Now that you've broken through in one fell swoop, and with all your accumulated strength finally unleashed, I'm afraid even ordinary Master Rank experts wouldn't be your match."
