Breaking the Limits, Recruiting a Chaos Hunter Legion! (Continued)
Upon hearing this suggestion, a thoughtful look appeared in Lila's eyes.
She originally wanted to return quickly, report this batch of Rejuvenation Pill to headquarters, and designate them as strategic materials for the Ouroboros Chamber of Commerce in the future.
There's no rush, though. We already have the items, so it doesn't matter when we go back.
"Okay." Lila nodded. "I'd also like to visit the Golden Ancient Tree again, so I'll have to trouble you then."
"It's nothing."
Shen Xing smiled and waved his hand, then instructed the orcs to move the [Wind Spirit Stone] to the vicinity of the territory's agricultural area.
Then, he led the members of the Ouroboros Chamber of Commerce through the city gate like fish through water.
Apart from Lila, this was the first time the others had entered the territory.
Everyone had long been curious about this magical territory.
As soon as they passed through the city gate, everyone craned their necks to look around.
To their slight disappointment, the place seemed quite different from what they had imagined.
The interior looked very empty, with large tracts of uncultivated wasteland.
Most of the buildings were concentrated at the edge of the fire, occupying a small area of the entire territory.
But when they saw the giant golden tree, standing 150 meters tall, in the center of their territory, their disappointment vanished, replaced by an indescribable awe.
No matter the angle or distance from which you view this ancient tree, it is always magnificent and dazzling.
Even if this territory had nothing else, this single Golden Ancient Tree would be enough to make it a sacred place in the hearts of countless people.
Amidst the shocked gazes of the group, Shen Xing led them to the residential area in the south of the territory and arranged for them to stay in several empty houses.
He then summoned Monday to entertain the group of merchants and guards.
Then, as agreed, he took Lila on a tour of the territory, and they also got a close look at the Golden Ancient Tree.
As this vice president journeyed along, the sense of awe he felt grew ever stronger.
Because every time she walked a certain distance, she could sense a terrifying aura.
There were several auras among them, which even made her feel a chill.
This left Lila completely bewildered.
You should know that when she last came to this territory, there wasn't a single Master Rank expert.
In just half a month... she sensed more than two dozen Tier Four powerhouses.
Such a terrifying rate of improvement has completely shattered her understanding.
However, she had already experienced too many shocks in this territory today, so she was no longer surprised.
After walking around the area, about two hours had passed.
Shen Xing then treated them to a sumptuous lunch before seeing them off.
At this moment, outside the territory's city walls, that spirited young woman rode atop a white steed.
"Then, Lord Shen Xing, farewell."
She turned around and solemnly said, "I will come as promised with the Soul Stone in a week."
"Okay, Miss Lila, take care."
Shen Xing, sitting in her wheelchair, smiled and waved.
Then, Lila tightened the reins and rode her horse to the front of the caravan.
Shen Xing watched the entire convoy depart until they completely disappeared into the mist.
After waiting for a moment, the smile on his face disappeared, and his expression became serious.
Then, he took out the communication crystal and said in a deep voice, "All combat personnel, assemble in the southern district of the territory."
With the order given, the entire territory began to stir.
"Boom..."
Heavy footsteps echoed from all directions as thousands of orcs, skeleton archers, Black Moon Knight, and others marched in a mighty procession.
They quickly gathered together, then lined up in a square formation, waiting in an orderly fashion.
"Huffing and puffing"
The sound of flapping wings filled the sky, and a large shadow fell, obscuring the entire sky.
Looking up, all they could see were dozens of enormous creatures with wingspans ranging from tens to hundreds of meters, hovering in the air.
Its black scales gleamed like crystal, its thick claws seemed capable of tearing apart steel, and the Dragon Breath brewing in its mouth could incinerate everything!
As Shen Xing's elite legion, the number of Shadow Dragon has officially reached sixty-one!
Furthermore, the lowest level is 19, the maximum level, and the potential is at least that of Boss.
If these dragons were to move out at once, they could even wipe out the territory of a Master Rank expert in a short period of time.
Following closely behind, a group of Master Rank generals also arrived.
In 10 minutes and 32 seconds, all 5,000+ combat units in the entire territory had assembled.
Shen Xing looked around, just about to give the order.
At this time...
"Buzz—"
A beam of moon-white light descended from the sky.
As the light faded, a majestic figure with grayish-white skin and a bare upper body was revealed.
He carried two swords on his back, his eyes were calm, and the aura he exuded gave people a huge sense of pressure!
At this moment, everyone's gaze inevitably fell upon this Godslayer.
"Oh! A newcomer has arrived in our territory!" Gorehowl exclaimed excitedly. "He looks like a formidable character; my Mao Mao is actually somewhat intimidated by his aura!"
Fordring's expression was also serious. "I sensed a forbidden power emanating from him, so powerful that even the Holy Light within me trembled."
Even Hellscream felt a strong sense of threat emanating from it, and involuntarily tightened his grip on his battle axe.
A rare glint of fighting spirit appeared in the orc's yellow, beastly eyes.
Facing the gazes of the crowd, Kratos merely nodded slightly, then found a corner to stand in, awaiting the lord's next instructions.
Seeing that everyone had gathered, Shen Xing said loudly, "Alright, everyone, get ready for battle!"
"Next, we will likely face a battle that will be many times more intense than the Blood Mist Frenzy."
"Everyone, be on your best!"
That's right, his next plan was to have Leina absorb the [Ancient Tree of Life Essence] and then face the so-called calamity.
Shen Xing did not underestimate it; instead, he was fully prepared.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions tightened, and their gazes became extremely serious.
Shen Xing looked around, then at the red-haired orc. "Gorehowl, step forward!"
"Here we are, boss!" Gorehowl strode out on his crimson dire wolf, looking at him with excitement.
Shen Xing didn't say much, but directly opened the talent interface.
[Sacrifice 3000 Agility to help the territory hero: Gorehowl advance to Overlord ★?]
"Yes."
As he clicked "OK," the familiar red light descended from the sky once again.
Gorehowl trembled, gripped the flaming greatsword in his hand, and began to desperately absorb this power.
Then, he entered the Metamorphosis from Boss to Overlord.
While Gorehowl was absorbing the energy, Shen Xing opened the territory building interface and found the [Chaos Hunter Nest].
[Consume the following materials: Soul Stone *240,000, Breath of Chaos *60,000, Food*24,000, Invar Alloy *1,200, and recruit 120 Tier Two Chaos Hunter (Elite ★★★)?]
Shen Xing clicked "OK" directly.
"Buzz—"
A large amount of materials disappeared from the backpack, and the Chaos Portal in the distance began to spin faster.
Inside the gate, light flowed and the Breath of Chaos lingered endlessly.
Immediately afterwards, one after another, distinctive figures emerged from the teleportation portal.
These are the Chaos Hunter.
But compared to Kratos, their appearances are worlds apart.
Each of them was over two meters tall, with grayish-black skin covered in dark purple, chaotic patterns.
They wore blindfolds, had a pair of tattered wings on their backs, and wielded two swords, resembling a group of silent warriors.
With each step, a dark purple chaotic flame was left on the ground.
Soon, they arrived at the South District and stood in neat rows.
At the same time, a system prompt appeared.
[Ding! Your territory now has over 100 units of the Chaos Hunter troop type, activating the 100-unit synergy: Sanity Restoration]
[Sanity Restoration: When sanity reaches zero, this skill can be used to immediately restore 30 sanity points. Cooldown: 24 hours]
Shen Xing looked at the prompt in front of him, then randomly clicked on the attributes of a Chaos Hunter to check them.
[Chaos Hunter]
[Level: 10 (Tier Two)]
[Potential: Elite ★★★]
[Attributes: Strength 412, Spirit 365, Agility 427, Constitution 388 (Ancient Tree Blessing + Crown Authority)]
[Skill:
1. Chaos Dual Blades Mastery (Each attack drains 1 point of sanity; each enemy killed restores 10 sanity; deals an additional 35% damage to Chaos creatures.)
2. Chaos Nova (Consumes 5 sanity points, releases the Power of Chaos within, deals damage equal to 278% of attack power to enemies within a 10-meter radius, and stuns them for 1-3 seconds; 50-second cooldown)
3. Blade Dance (Consumes 5 sanity points, rapidly spins and swings a blade, dealing 4 instances of cutting damage equal to 116% of attack power to enemies within a 5-meter radius, cooldown 45 seconds)
4. Chaos Fel Ray (Remove the blindfold and fire two chaotic rays from the pupils, dealing chaos damage equal to 455% of attack power to enemies within a 30-meter radius.)
This skill reduces your maximum sanity by 20% for 1 hour, with a 3-minute cooldown.
[Talent: Chaos Corrosion (Because his body has been Chaos Corrosion, he needs sanity to maintain himself.]
When sanity is below 30, all attributes increase by 20%, but there is a certain probability that the user will not distinguish between friend and foe.
