Chapter 150: Chapter 150: Surprise Attack, Legend Fanatic Believers
Translator: 549690339 |
This massive metal platform is a void base of the military, much like a space station of the interstellar era, with a diameter of about fifty kilometers and a substantial volume. At the moment, a large number of small flying vessels can be seen entering and leaving at the edge of this enormous space station.
Every time a group of planes is conquered in the main world, a huge void base is established there as an outpost base, generally varying in scale according to importance.
According to Lin Xiao’s knowledge, these void bases typically have five levels, with the First Level being the lowest and the Fifth Level the highest. The current void base in front of them is a Level 2 Void Base.
However, above these five levels, there are even higher levels of void bases, for which one can refer to the Yan Huang No. 5 Super War Fortress.
A small part of these small flying vessels belong to the base’s garrison, but many more belong to private groups, such as family teams from the main world, civilian adventure teams, and private company exploration teams. They enter the various super war fortresses from the main world and then transfer to the military bases within each crystal wall in the different domains, from there heading to explore the planes within each crystal wall.
Of course, not many have the capability to venture deep into the void. The vast majority of civilian groups conduct their explorations near the major military bases. For instance, most here are exploring near this group of shattered planes, searching for treasures and resources lost within certain shattered planes.
The void ship is docked next to the outpost base, but this is just a temporary stop; they will soon continue on to deliver them to the plane where their mission is located.
In the meantime, they can buy information about the mission plane here or replenish various resources.
It’s worth noting that numerous civilian teams undertake adventures at each military base. They collect vast amounts of resources and don’t bother taking them back to the main world; most are digested within the military base. They either sell them to other adventurers in need or directly sell them to the base military. Among these, there is no shortage of good items.
There is also a local trading network here, where the signal coverage extends from the base as the center within a certain range. The higher the level of the void base, the larger the coverage area. The coverage area of this Level 2 Void Base is estimated to encompass dozens of nearby piecemeal planes.
After discussing with Shen Yuexin, Lin Xiao purchased a map of several large fragments of the planes nearby through military channels, focusing on the purchase of detailed information about the plane fragment where their mission lies, including intelligence on both the Human Kingdom and the Vampire Kingdom.
Then, Wu Zhonglin called them together for another meeting.
Half an hour later, the two of them returned, projected the virtual map in front of the whole team, and said as he drew two circles in one area:
“The area assigned to Yuexin and me is this one. Wu Zhonglin has put us in charge of this large sector.”
His gaze swept over the team and finally settled on Ancient City, saying:
“Here’s what I’m thinking: let you, along with Su Tong, Yu Xinze, and Yan Shu Huan take charge of this side.”
He then pointed to the other circle:
“Yuexin, Lin Xu, and I will take care of the other side. How does that sound?”
Ancient City looked up at him and didn’t speak, but it was Su Tong beside him who answered:
“Sure, that’s perfect, we each take responsibility for one side.”
“If no one objects, then it’s settled.”
Lin Xiao had no time for any scheming; he directly split the team according to Ancient City’s wishes, letting everyone do their own thing.
His silence of course meant consent.
At this point, Wu Zhonglin sent everyone a message with a large map. The Vampire Kingdom side had already been divided into five areas of varying sizes, each marked with at least two avatars, like Lin Xiao and Shen Yuexin, or up to four avatars, like Wu Zhonglin’s team—it was the thirteen of them.
“I have divided the Vampire Kingdom into five regions. Zhang Guan, Gao Yongsheng, and student Jiang Xinyi are in charge of the largest central region. The other captains are responsible for the other regions. Everyone can stick together or split into teams, freely choosing the region they wish to tackle. Any issues or matters will be handled by the respective area leaders.”
“Not bad at all.”
This arrangement is very suitable for the summer camp situation, giving everyone enough freedom.
Next came the internal division of the team. Shen Yuexin shared the detailed map and information of their assigned area with the team, allowing her and Lin Xu to make a copy of the map and information first, then she said:
“We have a little while to prepare; we might as well take a look around the trading platform.”
Lin Xiao scratched his head and chose to enter the Divine Realm.
He had thought of taking advantage of the momentum to chat with the beauty, but he had just sensed a slight change in the Divine Realm and needed to check on it.
Back in the Divine Realm, he first took in all the information accumulated by the Divine Realm during this period. After a moment, he opened his eyes and pinched his chin, slightly surprised.
First off, after using up the remaining 80 million or so extra faith value borrowed from Shen Yuexin, he once again birthed eleven Transcendent Level Supreme Naga Whale Knights through the ancient arena. With the original seventeen, he now had a total of twenty-eight Transcendent Level Clan members.
With the foundation of Fifth Level troops and the profession of a Fifth Level all-around knight they had already accumulated, the Supreme Nagas had already reached the Fifth Level limit. Add to that the real combat experience from the previous Blood Count invasion, these eleven Whale Knights had finally broken through the limit and ascended to the Transcendent Level after such a long time training in the ancient arena.
And that was just a part of them; there were many more Fifth Level Supreme Nagas in the Divine Realm. Provided they could accumulate enough real combat experience and sufficient Power of Faith to activate the ancient arena, it was believed that more Transcendent Clan members could be promoted in succession.
As a higher race, with the miracle construction of the ancient arena, as long as there was enough Power of Faith, it was possible to create Transcendent troops in small quantities.
The only issue was that the Power of Faith was being consumed rather quickly. Nearly three hundred million units of Power of Faith were completely depleted to give birth to twenty-eight Transcendent troops—that’s about one million Faith value for each.
However, looking at it from another angle, spending one million units of Power of Faith for a Transcendent Clan member seemed rather cost-effective.
Moreover, now that all these more than nine hundred Supreme Nagas were at Level 5, there was no need to start from scratch in their training, which meant that the future consumption would decrease gradually.
Beyond that, another significant change in the Divine Realm during this period was the birth of an Elemental Sprite, a Water Elemental Sprite.
The so-called Elemental Sprites are not Elves, unrelated to the Elves race, nor are they Elements; they’re different from Water Elements. They are beings born naturally from a certain element, inherently Transcendent creatures proficient in all water series magic spells and extremely powerful.
This Water Elemental Sprite was born in the ocean, an Elf of the Sea, the daughter of the ocean.
Lin Xiao, looking down at the Divine Realm from the God Country, immediately saw a little sprite playing with a large turtle deep in a coral forest where water elements converged.
There was a palm-sized creature, completely crystal clear with little blue Elemental lights swirling around her, resembling a young girl, quite similar to the Flower Fairy.
She was very lively and vivacious, darting through the water with grace. Her favorite pastime was climbing onto the back of a large turtle, whose carapace measuring two meters squared, festooned with mountainous angular protrusions, swimming back and forth while the surrounding corals and seaweeds would nod at her. From time to time, colorful fish swam by her side.
Even when ferocious carnivorous fish swam by, they indulgently allowed her to sit on their backs and be carried around everywhere.
“A true sprite of heaven and earth!”
Lin Xiao couldn’t help but exclaim. With a thought, his True Body appeared in the sea, and an invisible ripple spread forth. The playing sprite looked up, tilting her head in confusion at him. After a moment, her delicate little face beamed with joy, and she swam over to revolve around him.
He extended his hand, and the little one perched on his palm and curiously looked up at him, a dazed thought entered his mind:
“Are you my father?”
“No, I’m your brother.”
Calling himself father felt odd.
The little one didn’t ponder on that, just sweetly called him brother, stretched out her translucent little hand, yawned, and curled up trustingly in his palm, her touch as cool as the ocean’s depths.
“So adorable!”
The newly born sprite couldn’t yet speak and was at the moment unable to leave the Divine Realm. Furthermore, it was impossible for another Water Elemental Sprite to be born in the Divine Realm in the future.
As an innate being born with the Divine Realm, her strength would grow with the expansion of the Divine Realm. If Lin Xiao were to achieve Godhood and the Divine Realm expanded to a certain extent, and he established his Divine System, as one of the four Elemental Sprites born with the Divine Realm, she would naturally receive the Godhood of the four elements and become one of the four Elemental Guardian Gods of the Divine Realm.
Of course, that would be far in the future. For now, she could only be responsible for being adorably charming.
Using Divine Power to form a bubble, he placed the sleeping cutie within it and sent her back to the turtle’s back. His gaze briefly swept over the turtle, noting the angular turtle shell and the slightly fierce dragon head, but without any immediate recollection.
With a thought, using the privileges of the Divine Realm Master, he traced back the life of this little one and quickly discovered that this creature came from the giant turtle shell he had obtained during the final exam period. After integrating it into the Divine Domain Heaven Card, a small turtle was born naturally, which seemed to be a rarely seen Dragon Turtle.
Despite several decades, the creature had only grown this big. By the standards of a Dragon Turtle’s growth stages, it was still in its infancy, and it would be hundreds of years before reaching adulthood.
Fortunately, as one day in the Main World equaled one year in the Divine Realm, after one term, the creature would reach adulthood, by which time it would be a legendary-ranked powerful Sea Beast.
Moreover, with turtles having exceptionally long lifespans and this one possessing Dragon heritage, it would grow increasingly stronger over time, potentially reaching the power of a Demigod or even a True God as an ancient Dragon Turtle in the future.
Lin Xiao didn’t stay long in the Divine Realm before leaving. He had already left the Subspace of the Main World and entered the Different Domain. Also, as time in the outside world started flowing at the same pace as within the Divine Realm, it wouldn’t be possible for him to stay inside for one or two years at a time.
When he emerged, the Void Ship had just disassociated from the Void Base and was heading toward one of the larger piecemeal planes. Along with the Void Ship, several small ships from civilian organizations were also departing the base, likely speculating on some military action and hoping to skim some advantage by being close by.
This situation was quite common; normally, the military wouldn’t stop them and would even welcome them. It was an excellent opportunity to assign them some tasks, allowing them to focus on eradicating sporadic resistance in the occupied areas.
