Chapter 206: Chapter 192: Tianyuan’s Epic Speed (3K)_1
Translator: 549690339 ,
By the time the last Skeleton Soldier stepped out of the convoluted space track, this sprawling road leading to the Land of Bones thousands of miles away began to crumble like a snow pinched bridge. Bit by bit, it fell away until it completely collapsed, leaving nothing behind.
In Mu Yuan’s hand, the blueprint leading to the Land of Bones also ignited six days ahead of schedule, turning into ashes that slipped between his fingers. Upon his return, Mu Yuan slightly adjusted his location. At this moment, he was located in the western region of the Skeleton Cemetery, adjacent to the core area.
This area was already an open space, but when a throng of Skeleton Soldiers, Skeleton Mages, and Skeleton Generals poured out, it still seemed a bit crowded. Some Skeleton Generals even crushed the fences that separated the area.
Looking at this scene, Mu Yuan showed a joyful smile like a farmer’s at harvest
time.
“This trip, I really hit the jackpot!” he said.
Ordinary types of troops, such as Skeleton Soldiers and Ghouls, might seem rather tasteless to other senior lords. If they recruit them, they feel that these types of troops lack the potential for nurturing, but if they don’t, it feels like a waste.
But they were still Three-star Troops numbering in the hundreds. If exchanged for Remnant Souls, they could fetch a handsome sum of Soul Crystal Coins. Unfortunately, recruitment points are not the same as Remnant Souls. The lords can only choose to recruit on the spot, they cannot sell them for money. For Mu Yuan, these ‘minion level’ troop types represented a considerable treasure trove of wealth.
“A total of nine hundred and thirty-nine units of undead troops,” he counted.
“With this, the accumulation speed of my undead system’s Evolution Points
can rise a lot; it’s worth celebrating,” he mused.
Purchasing Little Skeleton Remnant Souls in large quantities was not an easy task.
It could be seen from his own monster killing loot. More than 90% of the Remnant Souls dropped by his Tianyuan Exploration Team were Random Remnant Souls, and designated One-Star Remnant Souls were polluted mostly by troop types like ’Goblin1 and ’Grey Wolf .
Not many merchant guilds would stockpile ‘Little Skeleton’ Remnant Souls.
Just as no one would hoard ’Goblin1 Remnant Souls.
Conversely, it would be easier to buy Remnant Souls of the human system troops.
At present, the Undead system Remnant Souls in Tianyuan Territory came from two channels: Sophia’s sporadic acquisitions, medium-sized purchases from merchant guilds, and the steady output from the Sacrificial Black Coffin. Another major gain from the land of recruitment is, naturally, high-order troops.
The Bone Dragon Sario and three Vampires. Oh, well, the latter can be
discounted.
Mu Yuan was quite pleased with the Bone Dragon.
In the Tai Xuan Forum, someone had done a survey on the ‘hottest mounts’, and the results were basically: Dragon! Dragon! And Dragon!
But the real giant dragons are unattainable. Even senior lords cannot fulfill their dreams to become Dragon Knights.
They can only resort to becoming Sub-Dragon Knights.
They ride on sub-dragon species like the’ Earth RockDragon’ ‘Bipedal Flying Dragon’, and the ‘Blazing Roaring Dragon’, etc. These sub-dragon species are rare treasures; obtaining them is many times more difficult than obtaining troops of the same order.
At times, when a group of lords gather, if a lord arrives riding a sub-dragon, he will be the most eye-catching among the crowd.
As for a real Dragon Knight with a giant dragon, no one dares to hope for that. A Bone Dragon, even though it is not as good as other giant dragons, it’s still a Dragon!
If Mu Yuan were to ride the Bone Dragon on a trip, and take a photo, it would instantly go viral on the internet, earning him the honorable title of’ Dragon Knight’.
Though this differs a bit from the Dragon Knight in his imagination.
The skill setup and the upgrading speed of Bone Dragon Sario makes Mu Yuan even more pleasantly surprised. Without exaggeration, if he were to choose between Bone Dragon Sario and a epic troop type without a legacy, he would choose the Bone Dragon.
The greatest ‘flaw’ of the Bone Dragon, which is seen as the disgrace of the giant dragon – – the disadvantage of its rank, is not a problem here for him. Great Lord Shepard only needs to use the Hand of Evolution, give Sario a tiny baptismal shock, and it can evolve, crossing into the true epic level, shoulder to shoulder with, if not surpassing the giant dragons.
And now,
Thanks to his and Sophia’s continuous procurement, the dedicated production from the Sacrificial Black Coffin, and the large batch of new troops they just recruited, the number of undead system troops has risen to two thousand seven hundred and ninety-one units.
With such a massive number as a base, the Undead system evolution points flowed in like running water, filling the ever-expanding Evolutionary Pond. The water level was rising at a visibly fast speed.
Only a few days will be needed to amass the vast Evo-power sufficient for an excellent Three-star Stage general to sprint towards the Epic Life rank.
That’s how fast Tianyuan generates epic troops now!
This is not like several months ago, when they had to scrimp and save for one or two months to muster an epic troop.
It’s a good time to be Bone Dragon Sario.
Of course, since Sario is a newcomer, even if Mu Yuan looks forward to his evolution into a true epic giant dragon – – a ghost dragon, shadow dragon or frost giant dragon – – Sario would have to wait in line.
Great Lord Shepard will certainly give Rakshasa, Hong Yi and other old ministers the opportunity to evolve first.
He turned to Boss Dead Bone, “I’ll leave the management and placement of these new troops to you.” He said.
Bone Dragon Sario was staring wide-eyed, his gaze sweeping over everything before him.
It was not quite what he had imagined.
This territory is too small and too primitive.
He remembered when he was the General of Deathremains in his previous life, he had built a grand White Bone Castle on Death Ridge, with hundreds of thousands of undead guards outside the castle.
But now this territory, ummmmm, at best, it was just a small town.
Sario was a little disappointed, but then he had a thought. One should always look at things from two perspectives. This territory was newly established, yet it had successfully taken down the vast Land of Bones and recruited him. This signifies that his own territory has unlimited potential in the future. At the same time, this territory has just been established. The wise lord must lack the talents by his side; thus, Sario could become… well, two heads down and everyone else looking up at the dragon.
Except for Boss Dead Bone, as Bone Dragon Sario, he would not be weaker than any other powerful creature.
Because after all, he’s a dragon!
A bright future is waiting for him!
With a vision of the future, the Bone Dragon was ready to build a nest for himself in the Skeleton Cemetery.
As for Great Lord Shepard, he was calculating the accumulation of evolution points, estimating how many generals could reach the realm of Epic in the future.
Under the current speed of accumulation of the Undead system, about one thousand and one hundred evolution points can be accumulated in a single day. However, in addition to the Rakshasa, Hong Yi, Sario, and other division commanders, he also needed to evolve his core troops to the Excellence level for all members.
In total, the gap in Evolution Points was not small, and the evolution plan might not be completed even in the next one or two months. However, the output of Undead Evolution Points was not fixed. With Sofia’s acquisition and the output of the Black Coffin, its daily production was still steadily increasing.
At the same time, Sofia also planned to purchase a batch of human remnant souls, nature system remnant souls, and slime remnant souls.
Mu Yuan spent a huge sum of 400 Soul Crystal Coins on the acquisition of remnant souls.
“Sofia is also preparing to set up a company and recruit staff to improve the efficiency of acquisitions and intelligence gathering,”
This was certainly a good idea.
The era of Mr. Mu struggling all day and only being able to acquire dozens of remnant souls was in the past.
Of course, Sofia’s large-scale acquisition of low-level remnant souls might attract the attention of interested parties.
But let them notice.
The times have changed.
He now has a certain capacity for self-protection.
As long as the Evolutionary Miracle is not exposed, he doesn’t mind the covetous gaze of others.
This is the strong sense of security that power brings.
Unlike the early days or the first two or three months when it was hard to fight an elite monster, he had to buy remnant souls in secret, fearing the attention 0 players straddling the gray and black zone.
Now?
He has the power, and he doesn’t mind even if a criminal is delivered to his door. He even looks forward to it.
“As for Sophia, she has more than enough ability to protect herself while staying in the city. Of course, for safety’s sake, let’s evolve Sophia to the Three- star Stage Excellence first, and then raise her ‘Epic Ranking’ a bit,”
Elevate it to the second position.
Among the human species, she is only second to Lu Liu, but she is still ahead of Seventeen.
The nature system troops are far less numerous, with only over 600 units at present, and their needs are significantly fewer, with only Tree Demon Granny in the division commander sequence. Others only need to evolve a few more Flower Fairies and Ancient Treemen.
But since Treemen are better at defense than attack, Mu Yuan wondered if there were suitable nature system troops that could be cultivated.
Nature Elf? Too expensive, he can’t afford it.
Just let it be.
Lord Shepherd couldn’t actually spend a huge amount of money to buy remnant souls. The purchase of a few troops with special functions, such as the rare one-star ‘Nun’, was already the limit of his ability to spend.
He was busy for half a day and instructed Sofia to prioritize the acquisition of certain types of troops according to needs.
Just as he was about to rest, he received a message from Liu Miumiu.
Mu, the busy man, Yuan quickly arrived at the Secret Realm ‘Elf’s Courtyard’, in front of the familiar cafe.
He entered the cafe.
He could see two familiar faces in the distance.
Liu Xiyue and Liu Miumiu.
After a while,
Mu Yuan stirring his coffee, “So you’re saying, at a minimum to have a chance to compete for a spot, I have to pass the Red Tower? Hiss!”
This was just for a chance.
Sure enough, honor and rewards were not easy to get.
He was not sure, he really wasn’t sure about this!
Lord of Han Yue City:
You’re not really thinking about competing for a spot, are you? Young people should focus on gaining experience.
Although she thought so, she still said, “It’s a bit rushed for you, but young people should fight for it. The alliance has prepared generous promotion rewards, including but not limited to: Pure Soul Source Pool, Hero Duel Arena medals, Land of Inheritance, and so on. I even want to go to some of these places again.”
Liu Xiyue tempted him.
After thinking for a while, she still said, “But for you, the most important thing is to gain experience, to stimulate the potential of your division commanders and yourself through fighting and killing stronger opponents. As long as you can improve, it’s worth it, and the whole competition won’t take much time. This remark was mainly directed at her little sister.
Indeed, after everyone proposed to throw potential newcomers into the fray for tempering, Liu Miumiu, as the third-ranked newcomer on the gold list, naturally met the criteria.
Of course, procedures still had to be followed, and someone of considerable stature had to guarantee and recommend her.
Shen Linglong was also eligible, so Han Yue let her recommend her little sister for herself.
And her? Of course, she was single-handedly recommending Tianyuan. Only in this way, when Tianyuan showed extraordinary power and pushed all the new talents, and had resistance against lords like Wuji, could she calmly say, “I said before, Tianyuan’s talent is not inferior to mine.” The Lord of Han Yue City seemed to have high expectations for herself. Facing her gaze, although he was under great pressure, Mu Yuan still said, “I will try my best.”
Not for the Pure Soul Source Pool and other rewards. Simply, he just wanted to bring glory to his country.
Mu Yuan asked again, “How much time is left?”
Liu Xiyue said, “Almost a month, to be exact, 26 days.”
Mu Yuan calculated briefly, “Well, that’s quite a long time to prepare.”
Was it long?
For her, for lords like Wuji, a mere month was hardly enough for any significant progress. But indeed, a month was not short for Tianyuan. He might be able to increase his overall strength by one-fifth or one-fourth.
But what Mu Yuan was thinking was, at this time, there were three Epic Generals in his territory.
How many more would there be in twenty-six days?
