Chapter 1128: Chapter 1128: Leap Forward Chapter 1128: Chapter 1128: Leap Forward Li Yao returned to the field to find the couple had finished their battle. Just as he arrived, he saw Lanyan leading a thousand Dark Spear hunters deftly moving and hunting down the enemy’s legions, and he also saw Niu Shanpao keeping more than five thousand Wild Bulln tightly engaged with the opposing Undead Legion.
Another male and female’s troops, though nurous, could neither break through the ranks of the Wild Bulln nor free themselves from entanglent, and were rcilessly reaped by the highly mobile Dark Spear hunters, ultimately choosing to surrender.
This ti, the husband and wife gained the selection of nearly a hundred gryphons. Though their bounty was not as great as ngke’s, it was still a decent haul. At least the couple were very satisfied; after all, gryphons are warcrafts, and cannon fodder, however abundant, can be acquired, but an elite Monster Corps is not so easily obtained.
“Today’s haul is pretty good. We’ll continue to sign up tomorrow. I estimate this can go on for a few more days. I hope the gryphons will take notice of us again,” Niu Shanpao said jubilantly.
Li Yao was stunned, “We can sign up again?”
“Of course,” Lanyan explained. “Those who fail can sign up again if they reorganize their troops. The two castles, as long as they’re making money, don’t care about such things. Besides, it’s just bad luck running into tough opponents. In reality, they’re not weak.”
“That does make sense,” Li Yao realized. He spent the remaining ti chatting with the three of them and keeping an eye on the situation in the Fra Space. The awkward misunderstanding with ngke had also passed, and Li Yao found that the young lady, aside from being a bit cold, was actually quite nice.
By night, the event lasted until midnight. Afterwards, the players were still not ready to leave. Those who got gryphons wanted even more, while the failures thought about regrouping.
On the beautiful plains, nurous pinpoints of light appeared as countless tents were erected. So were playing with pets, others playing Gwent, and still others singing and dancing. The atmosphere was indeed very lively.
It was not until the four of them had set up three tents around the campfire that Nicholas arrived with his fine wines and delicacies for Li Yao, that the other three realized that these two were followers of Li Yao. And not just any followers; they both sported Hero Badges.
“Little brother, that’s not fair, keeping us in the dark like that. Turns out, you’re the deepest one hidden among us,” Niu Shanpao snatched the fine wine from Li Yao’s hand, clicking his tongue in amazent.
“This is the high-quality red wine that vampires love to drink most—’Scarlet Night.’ Don’t drink it straight from the bottle; you’re wasting good wine,” ngke quickly grabbed the bottle and produced a wine glass, poured herself a drink, and then began to savor it slowly.
“They say a ten-year-old cellared bottle now sells for five thousand Gold Coins each. Since little brother is so extraordinary, I won’t hold back either,” Lanyan pulled out a wine glass as well.
Li Yao smiled wryly, “It seems everyone here knows how to live a good life. This wine is indeed incredibly fine.”
With a flick of his hand, Li Yao produced another bottle, poured himself a glass, and joined the others in savoring the drink.
Nicholas’s cellar still had plenty of quality wines, and with the lord’s private stock, Li Yao was not short on fine drinks. Whether it’s dwarves or gnos, they are races that, even more so than vampires, appreciate a good wine.
In Fra Space, Li Yao’s soldiers were still busy, continuously funneling an endless stream of corpses into the conversion pools, and Li Yao couldn’t be bothered to keep count anymore.
His Legion was expanding without stop, and after several days of skirmishes, the number of bodies from the fissure was extraordinarily high. This unexpected blessing from the sky was sothing Li Yao couldn’t openly rejoice over; he could only secretly delight in it.
Furthermore, addressing the issue of the chanical Legion’s low-rank troops having insufficient strength, Li Yao had essentially figured it out. The short-term developnt path would be for the chanical Legion to follow a support-oriented approach.
Those combat drones had little use before he beca a true leader and earned the Hero title, but the Gatlings could be utilized. In ti, he could find a type of troop capable of using Gatlings.
Moreover, Battle Puppets were an excellent combat tool. Although they were much more expensive to produce than the drones, their practicality was exceptional. Once Li Yao beca a Hero, he planned to gradually equip his high-intelligence followers with one each. This would significantly increase their chances of survival. Only through accumulative battle experience would they reach higher levels. Among his dark Rangers, once he beca a leader and obtained the Hero title, he would be quite satisfied if one or two sub-heroes erged.
Having decided his developnt path, the strengthening plan was straightforward to discuss. The second-tier queen insect had two enhancent points available for use, allowing Li Yao to determine the early developnt direction of the queen and the swarm.
Moreover, new options appeared at the second tier. In the first phase, Li Yao still chose to enhance the queen’s vitality and production capabilities. After the enhancent, the conversion rate of the conversion pools increased significantly by thirty percent, and the troop production speed also tripled. By strengthening this aspect, even though the troops only gained additional vitality and a bit more health, the efficiency of the worker troops also soared. While the strength of the Legion had not increased much, the efficiency of internal affairs and logistics had grown exponentially.
For the second point, Li Yao didn’t choose to strengthen armor or attack, nor did he opt for mutations that would beneficially alter the insect race. Instead, he enhanced stamina—a term encompassing strength, recovery ability, and sustained combat capacity. These traits seed quite inconsequential previously; after all, battles involving his Legion were typically decided swiftly, and the insect race already possessed great stamina and strength. Enhancing these seed sowhat redundant.
But Li Yao did it anyway. As a result, on the surface, the combat power didn’t seem to have increased by much, but Li Yao knew that if he could obtain the chanical Core and combine it with the auxiliary abilities of chanics, the insect race Troops would truly undergo a transformation, becoming an elite main combat Legion.
Of course, in reality, as the queen advanced, all insects gained so attribute improvents. In fact, the combat power of the Bug Race Troops had increased by more than twenty percent, and the Fra Space had also doubled in size to 2000*2000, which was another cause for happiness.
Now, as the queen was operating at full capacity, the soldiers were busy moving countless corpses, while the conversion pools continuously transford them into energy units. anwhile, the various nests were also producing soldiers non-stop.
If not for the fact that the number of worker soldiers could be increased to ten thousand after the second tier, plus Li Yao’s chosen direction for enhancent, the queen would not have t Li Yao’s expectations.
In Li Yao’s planning, within three days, his Mantis Legion would expand to one hundred thousand, with Breakers and hunters each reaching thirty thousand—this was an assessnt based on the number of available corpses.
However, that alone wasn’t enough. In Li Yao’s plans, he also needed to acquire so low-rank chanical Soldiers. Only then could he execute his plan.
Without the chanical Legion, his plan would not co to fruition, but soon Li Yao found a way…
