Chapter 78: Women Would Only Hamper My Development!
“How stubborn!”
Tru snorted when he saw Lin Hai and the others swearing to fight to their deaths.
As a Cla.s.s 4 soldier, he could see through the golden glow emitted by the other party at a glance.
Although it had some defensive attributes, its l.u.s.ter was at most Level 1.
Such strength was truly fragile, unable to withstand even one blow.
“Tru, finish this quickly.”
As he was about to attack, Lin Ye spoke, his eyes shining.
Awakeneds were good.
As long as he killed this person, he would be a step closer to completing the 3,000 Protagonist’s Destiny mission.
“Don’t worry, my lord.” Tru laughed as orange-red battle aura rose around him.
Swish!
In the next moment, he rode on his Wind Wolf and charged rapidly towards the golden defensive shields of Lin Hai and his subordinates.
Thump!
A dull sound rang out.
“Too weak, too weak. Eat a blow from my axe!” Tru laughed.
At this moment, his New Moon Battleaxe had already snapped Lin Hai’s Cla.s.s 2 Blue Tier Black Iron Longsword into halves.
At the same time, the terrifying Cla.s.s 4 battle aura exploded, instantly shattering the golden shield.
Thump!
The chests of the twelve Lin Hai and his people caved in as they were sent flying amidst a shower of blood.
One by one, their backs crashed into the territory’s entrance and they fell to the ground, unconscious.
“What a strong defense!”
Although he won in one move, Tru secretly clicked his tongue.
One had to know that his current battle aura was equivalent to that of Cla.s.s 4 Purple Tier New Moon War Axe with powerful offensive power.
Yet, he did not instantly kill these guys and only heavily injured them?
This was too terrifying.
“My lord, this person’s talent is probably exceptional.” After some thought, Tru turned around and said.
“What do you mean?” Lin Ye was confused.
“Usually, combat power and defense strength are the most basic forms which talents will show. In terms of combat power, the stronger the talent, the easier it is for them to kill enemies like dogs.”
Tru pointed at Lin Hai, who was lying on the ground and continued, “This fellow has a similar potential, but he favors defensive abilities. With this axe of mine, even Cla.s.s 3 experts will die. It’s hard to say for those of the same cla.s.s since I relied on the upgrade scrolls to advance and my foundation is still too weak.”
“Even so, it’s definitely not something a bunch of Cla.s.s 1 soldiers can defend against.”
“You mean, I should keep him?” Lin Ye could vaguely tell what Tru was implying.
“Yes.”
Tru nodded and said seriously, “Our Lin clan doesn’t lack offensive power, but there’s a huge gap in our defense. Almost all of us relied on our equipment’s defense to climb up.”
“It’s naturally not a problem for us if the cla.s.s difference is great, but if we encounter someone of a similar cla.s.s, casualty rates will increase drastically. If he has a strong defensive talent, he can solve this problem perfectly. Furthermore, this guy has strong willpower and can easily pa.s.s the tests of the four sacred halls.”
“…” Lin Ye hesitated.
He didn’t tell Tru and the others 100xReward could allow him to obtain other similar talents.
In theory, other than Zhang Liang, who was already loyal to him, he had no interest in anyone else for the time being.
But what Tru said made sense.
In his future battles, this fellow’s talent was indeed suitable as a meat shield commander.
As a territory lord, even if he had the same talent, he could not risk his life to fight at the frontlines.
This was not appropriate.
“Then give him a chance. Let Gran heal him. If he’s willing to serve me as a loyalist, he’ll live. If he’s not willing, then I’m sorry.”
In any case, loyalists could give him a talent fragment as well. It would be best if he could agree to it. If he did not, there would be no loss as well.
With that, Lin Ye led the way into Lin Hai’s territory.
He walked straight to the bunker.
“Conquer!”
Without the lord’s protection, the Civilization Archive could directly conquer the bunker. A large number of black particles landed on the surface of the bunker and the barracks.
Soon, with a speed visible to the naked eye.
All the buildings in the territory were rapidly collapsing, turning into the most fundamental energy particles that surged into Lin Ye’s Civilization Archive.
Soon, the system sent him the good news.
“Congratulations to Survivor Lin Ye. Your experience bar is full. You can upgrade your bunker to Level 7 once you return to your territory.”
“Not bad.” Lin Ye smiled.
He wondered what new changes his Level 7 bunker would bring.
At the same time, the sound of cavalry came from behind.
It was Luo Feng and the others who had returned.
Thousands of soldiers followed behind him, dragging a large number of zombie corpses on dozens of bamboo rafts.
On the bodies of the Wind Wolves in the front row were more than 20 treasure chests.
“My lord, I’ve accomplished my mission. The path to the first Haunted House has been cleared,” said Luo Feng as he cupped his fists.
“You’ve worked hard.”
Lin Ye chuckled lightly and nodded. His gaze swept across the treasure chests handed over by Su Yu and Xu Que, and the smile on his face widened.
He took a quick look and saw a total of 26 treasure chests.
19 sandalwood and 7 bronze ones.
To be able to gain this much within half an hour was already a great accomplishment.
“My lord, what about the zombie corpses behind? Should we bring them back to the territory? Or…” Xu Que asked.
In fact, before they came, they had seen the zombie converter that Lin One and the others had brought. However, for some reason, Lin Ye did not pa.s.s the converter to them.
“Let’s convert them on the spot. Everyone, rest for a while. I have some personal matters to settle.”
Lin Ye waved his hand and called Lin One over, asking him to bring people to install the zombie converter.
Currently, the six thousand meters area was all his territory. The converter could be used at will within the territory.
As for why he did not leave it to Luo Feng and the others to convert directly after the kill.
Of course, it was for 100xReward!
This strange thing would only trigger 100xReward if it was close to him. Otherwise, there was no chance at it.
A moment later, when he felt the eager gazes of the new recruits not far away, Lin Ye realized and laughed. “Zhang Bao’er, come here for a while.”
“Huh?”
Zhang Bao’er jogged over in a daze and asked in confusion, “My lord, why are you looking for me?”
“Didn’t I give you a lot of notebooks for primary school students last time? Use them for the new recruits who have just gone out to kill enemies and count the number of enemies and treasure chests they’ve obtained. After we finish clearing the Haunted House, we’ll consolidate the scores when we get back,” Lin Ye said.
“Oh, okay. Can I ask Chu Meng and Liu Yuan to help me? There are too many people.”
“Sure.”
With Lin Ye’s approval, Zhang Bao’er brought the two music major girls to the new recruits’ camp.
Immediately, the eyes of the thousands of native recruits lit up.
One by one, they crowded around them.
They stood up straight and reported the number of enemies they had killed as if they wanted to show off their strength in front of the opposite s.e.x.
“These fellas.”
Lin Ye found it funny. This act was very similar to his own from his elementary school days.
As he read, he casually put all the treasure chests into his Civilization Archive.
He would not open these things for the time being.
He suffered greatly on the first day. After 100xReward, there were too many living supplies that dropped.
It took a long time for the hundreds of native workers to transport all the supplies back.
Because of this, he even complained about the Civilization Archive for half a day. Why couldn’t the living supplies that dropped be kept in the Civilization Archive?
The s.p.a.ce was too small. It could only hold small weapons like Desert Eagle and grenades.
After packing up, Lin Ye glanced at the Zombie Converter. He was still some time away from completing the conversion, so he called out, “Adelia, bring a hundred cavalry soldiers and follow me. The rest of you, rest here. There will be a huge battle later. Only by restoring your energy will you be able to emerge victorious in every battle.”
“Where are we going?”
Adelia was surprised. Didn’t they agree to go to the haunted house?
“The Level 4 Venomous Zombie!” Lin Ye replied plainly. He summoned his giant earth wolf and sat down.
Upon hearing this, Adelia’s eyes were immediately filled with joy.
Knowing that her lord was avenging her, she said happily, “My lord, I love you to death!”
“I don’t love you. Don’t even think about it. Women only hamper my development.”
Leaving behind a joke, Lin Ye rode the giant earth wolf and led the way out of the territory.
“Cavalry team, follow me!”
Adelia shouted and picked up her Cla.s.s 4 Silver Tier weapon, Wind Splitting Bow.
A group of wolf cavalry and Iron-Blooded Horse Riders follow closely behind with Lin Ye’s lead and disappeared into the distance.
