Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate-Chapter 83 - 82: Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms Opens
"Lord, that is Shuangye City."
More than an hour later.
Lin You and the others finally made it through the forest and approached the vicinity of a huge city.
"Is this Shuangye City?"
Lin You hid in the forest, peering through the trees to the outside. Sure enough, he saw a city gate standing at the end of the road, with the three gilded characters "Shuangye City" prominently displayed above the gate.
However, it was not as Lin You had imagined. At this moment, Shuangye City looked extremely shattered.
Although it was grander than Yellow Sand City, it seemed as if it had just suffered large-scale destruction.
Not only had more than half of the city walls collapsed, but even the roads were full of potholes, evidence of past battles everywhere.
Looking through the city gate, one could see a large area of devastated buildings inside, all turned into ruins, truly unbearable to behold.
"These were all destroyed during the struggle between the old city lord and the new lord. It will probably take a long time to rebuild,"
Wei Gang explained in a timely manner.
Apparently, the situation in Shuangye City was even more pitiful than Lin You had imagined.
And it seemed that, having just experienced internal turmoil, the security was very tight.
Even just outside the city gate, one could see many cultivators, making it very difficult to sneak in.
While Lin You could charge in with Lingxi, he was only Tier Six himself, and if besieged, it would be hard for him to withstand it.
So Lin You had to send a Wood Shadow Dragon to fly high in the air and scout the situation inside the city. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Through his connection with the Wood Shadow Dragon, he quickly discovered on the city’s streets numerous Mechanical Wooden Armor Beasts patrolling back and forth, along with many impressive figures.
These were surely the lord’s species and his subordinate cultivators.
Indeed, as Wei Gang had described, it was a Mechanical Type lord.
"The guards inside are even stricter than outside, so entering now would be very difficult,"
Lin You said in a low voice.
"Indeed," Wei Gang nodded, "It’s easy to leave, but tough to enter now. I guess we’ll have to wait for the market day, mixing in when the villages come to trade."
"There are villages around here?" Lin You looked over at Wei Gang.
"Yes, although there are occasional demons around Shuangye City, they are mostly low-tier and pose little threat to the villages. Even if high-tier demons appear, they are quickly dealt with by experts from Shuangye City, so this area is relatively safe."
"I see,"
Lin You realized.
No wonder he hadn’t encountered any high-tier demons along the way; they had been cleared out in advance.
And being close to Shuangye City with numerous Tier Six experts, those demons dare not approach too closely; one would likely have to go to more remote places to encounter high-tier demons.
After having the Wood Shadow Dragon circle above Shuangye City and complete the reconnaissance of the basic conditions within,
Lin You said, "Let’s go have a look around the area; once we’ve scouted it all out, we’ll head back."
"Okay."
With that, the two mounted the Wood Lion, circled around Shuangye City, then headed straight back toward Yellow Sand City.
This exploration of Shuangye City
allowed Lin You to clearly understand the gap between Yellow Sand City and other territories.
Even in its state of ruin, it was still beyond comparison to Yellow Sand City.
To develop quickly, one needs strong enough power to attract more talents.
So upon returning from Shuangye City to Yellow Sand City, Lin You immediately took the plants out into the depths of the Gobi Desert to diligently collect Magic Energy.
In the following days,
He traveled between various places, hunting demons to enhance his strength.
It wasn’t until the fifth day that he finally managed to recruit one hundred and twenty species to full capacity.
This included thirty beast-formed plant legions and eighty other combat plants.
The remaining ten were his sowing team and auxiliary plants.
"Finally recruited them all, it’s not easy,"
In the territory, Lin You looked at the more than one hundred species before him, feeling a sense of accomplishment.
He glanced at the two Blood Demonesses and the Wood Shadow Dragon who had survived the escape earlier; their experience had already reached over four hundred points, and it wouldn’t be long before they could level up to Tier Seven, like Lingxi.
And after these few days of progress, the population in Yellow Sand City had increased from over five hundred to now over one thousand, doubling completely.
The Power of Faith had also risen to 103 points, significantly enhancing his strength.
What remains is just the issue of territorial construction.
As long as the territory is built up, it can attract more and more people, be it citizens, cultivators, or merchants.
As more people gather, his Power of Faith will undoubtedly rise as well, and reaching Tier Seven is just around the corner.
With that thought, Lin You smoothly opened the chat channel to check for any recent developments.
However, to his surprise, tonight’s lord chat topics seemed a bit different than usual.
"Brothers, the day of departure has arrived, are you all prepared?"
"Do you even need to ask? We’re all set, just waiting for midday tomorrow."
"This time I’m going to kill ten! To avenge last time."
"Haha, make sure you survive before talking about that."
"Anyone up for collaboration? I’m honest and trustworthy, no backstabbing!"
Reading these incessantly scrolling messages left Lin You puzzled, as he had no idea what they were discussing.
Yet he sensed a heavy, murderous atmosphere as if something significant was about to happen.
Sure enough, it wasn’t long before some new lords, unable to contain their curiosity, began to inquire.
"Big shots, what are you all talking about? What do you mean by ’day of departure’?"
"Same question, just arrived here and totally confused."
"Is something big about to go down?"
Their inquiries were precisely what Lin You wanted to ask.
Since someone else had already spoken up, it saved him a hundred Magic Energy from sending a message.
Those veteran lords in the chat saw their inquiries and responded teasingly.
"Haha, tremble, newbies. Tomorrow is the day of forced teleportation; if you don’t want to die, hurry up and strengthen yourselves."
"Pity, just arrived and already facing such a situation. I wonder how many newbies will die this time."
"I remember when I first arrived, I was just as confused. Luckily, I survived by chance."
"I bet at least half of these new lords will perish."
"Half? Too conservative; at least most of them will die."
"Come on, stop scaring them. We’re on the same team, after all, but judging by the time, the notification should be coming soon."
Notification?
What’s that?
Watching the chat closely, Lin You grew even more bewildered.
However, before he could ponder further, a voice devoid of any emotion suddenly echoed in the minds of all lords!
[Attention, all esteemed lords, the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms will open at noon tomorrow. Please prepare accordingly.]
[At that time, all lords will be forcibly teleported to the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms for a duration of three days.]
[During the battlefield period, all territories and affiliated territories will be protected from any external damage.]
[In the battlefield, you will encounter enemies from various realms and numerous treasures and territory resources. Fight bravely and strive to survive in the battlefield!]
