Chapter 78

On the surface were layers of mysterious energy matrices, even down to the cellular level!

Emperor Emperor Chixing, the Empire's strongest mechanical lord, an existence beyond the Void-level,

created the SSS-grade territory energy tower, which belonged to the peak-level craftsmanship in the Great Desolate Star Region.

Even if it were just an A-grade energy tower, other mechanical lords couldn't hope to crack it.

"Activate!"

This A-grade territory energy tower now belonged to Zhao Xing.

With a thought, it was completely activated.

The territory energy tower echoed with the mist at the edge of the world.

The ordinary troops on the territory instantly evolved into elite troops.

Elite troops began to break through to the transcendent level.

Transcendent levels began to evolve toward the King-level!

Even the inner world began to expand!

"Truly magical!"

Zhao Xing watched this scene. Some troops had a growth limit of only the elite level,

but now, they were evolving toward the transcendent level!

Those that could already grow to the transcendent level also had their growth speed significantly accelerated.

And if this continued for a long time, it was very likely they would break their life limits and become King-level!

"What a picture of all things growing."

Zhao Xing looked at the flourishing scene in his territory and smiled happily.

He even felt that the second leaf of the Time God Tree had become greener.

The time acceleration multiplier had also increased from 150 times to 151 times.

Don't look at it as just a tiny increase of one time.

But this was the first time Zhao Xing had encountered a treasure that could affect the growth progress of the Time God Tree!

"I must get an S-grade or even higher territory energy tower in the future."

Zhao Xing decided that he must pay more attention to treasures that could improve the Time God Tree in the future.

…………

The night after the gathering ended,

Zhao Xing was meditating when suddenly—

"Beep beep~"

An email notification.

"Is it an email from Zhao Li? Did he find an elite group?"

Zhao Xing's mind moved, and he immediately went over.

Another King-level lifeform matured! Zhao Xing's sprint plan! (Please auto-subscribe!)

Virtual world, independent space, inside the ancient castle.

One hour ago.

"A-Li, sorry, I couldn't make it to the gathering you held yesterday."

A burly man lay on the sofa, with robots massaging his back; this was also a paid service in the virtual world,

capable of soothing the spirit and allowing mental strength to recover quickly.

"Pang Yun, did you encounter some tricky battle?" Zhao Li was concerned about this good friend; he looked somewhat exhausted.

"You also saw my state in the public area. From the day before yesterday to this morning, the battle lasted for a full day and night,"

Pang Yun shook his head: "The group that Xiao Lin and I organized had a total of 300 people, and we also matched with over a dozen large and small teams, bringing the total number of students to 1083!"

"Over a thousand people?"

"How many times did the aliens spawn?" Zhao Li asked.

"5 times."

"How miserable."

Zhao Li shook his head. In the intermediate zone, the limit was also spawning 1-10 times the number.

However, the intermediate zone wasn't so easy to bully.

After all, intermediate alien lords were strong enough.

Moreover, Pang Yun and Xiao Lin's team coordination was tacit, but there were only 300 people.

The other thousand-plus people were composed of over a dozen teams of varying sizes.

The coordination must have been very chaotic.

The number of alien enemies, however, was over 5,000.

"Then why didn't you leave at the beginning?" Zhao Li asked.

"I couldn't bear to," Pang Yun sighed, "Emergency teleporting out requires consuming 1 million points!"

"Running away without firing a single shot—then there's no point in opening this group, and the hearts will scatter."

"So you fought hard, wanting to force back some alien lords to recoup some losses?" Zhao Li guessed.

"Yes, not just me, Xiao Lin and my team members all thought the same."

"In the chaos, earn some points, then retreat; that counts as recouping some losses."

"As a result, we ran into a regular alien army," Pang Yun said with a bitter smile.

"A regular alien army... you mean the ones captured from the battlefield not long ago?" Zhao Li asked.

"Yes," Pang Yun, recalling that scene, still felt his heart tremble.

"Among those 5,000 alien lords, there was a complete 2,000-person alien army!"

"When they attacked, they even flew their own banners."

"The entire attack process was tacit, and the troop combination was also very reasonable."

"Because they were captured by the Empire not long ago,"

"they didn't have enough points for an emergency teleport, and their fighting will was incomparably tenacious."

"Our group's direction happened to run into this 2,000-person regular alien army."

"But at the time, neither Xiao Lin nor I realized this problem."

"So upon first contact, we lost quite a few troops."

"The more we lost, the more we wanted to make up for it."

"In the end, Xiao Lin and I both lost our heads."

Pang Yun sighed: "More than half of Xiao Lin's Shadow Leopard troops died. Originally, there was a Shadow Leopard King that had already entered the growth stage."

"Now it's also injured, which has affected its growth. I estimate it will take quite a bit of money and time to recover."

"Tell me if you need money," Zhao Li said seriously, "You and Xiao Lin have hope of impacting the top 10,000; you can't be delayed."

In the Glory Battlefield trial, the Empire couldn't let people farm points at will.

Victory, defeat, death, and injury were not uncommon.

Opening a group to farm points was indeed faster.

But a single defeat could also lead to severe troop damage, greatly discounting strength.

Instead, you end up losing points.

If the points still aren't enough, you can only trade privately through the virtual world.

Let others use points to buy things, then buy them with money.

But the cost is much higher.

Because those repair items are very precious, and ordinary students have few available points and can't afford them at all.

Everyone uses points to exchange for treasures to improve their own strength.

There aren't many students who have a lot of points left in their hands and are willing to trade them privately for star coins.

"Thanks, not for now. Xiao Lin and I still have some savings."

"But now the hundred-man group's strength is damaged quite a bit, and some people have left, so I have to find some new talent."

"I came to the virtual world to tell you and explain why I didn't come yesterday."
