My military branches can Evolve Infinitely-Chapter 398 - 288: The Banquet and Challenge (4K)_2

After preparing the feast of beasts, Duo Lai invited the Lord, Brother Dead Bone, Isloa, Xi Liu, Qing Shuang, Han Shuang, and many others to taste it together.

Everyone just had a taste.

To Duo Lai's delight, this time Boss Dead Bone finally came to the feast—he had been invited many times before, but Brother Dead Bone refused each time, using the excuse that his skeleton didn't have an appetite.

But this time,

Dead Bone examined the ice crystal slices in his hand, pondered for a moment, and then gently bit into one after putting it in his mouth.

"Is this the Legendary Realm?"

"What level was it at in its prime? If I wanted to dissect it, exactly how much strength would I need?"

Combining his observations of the Legendary creatures from afar in the past with a close tasting this time, Dead Bone began to engage in some bony contemplation.

Isloa was also examining the slices in her hand.

Unfortunately, due to Duo Lai's powerful cooking, the slices differed too much from the corpse, and she couldn't discern any clues.

"This is a Legendary corpse after all; to simply eat it seems far too wasteful!"

Although she knew that Duo Lai eating this Legendary being wasn't a waste, had she known about the existence of such a Remnant Soul beforehand, she would have kept some for research purposes without fail.

The more she thought about it, the more regretful she felt, and all she could do was take out her frustrations on the dishes in front of her, eating voraciously.

"Delicious!"

"Delicious!"

Mu Yuan and Duo Lai toasted each other.

Duo Lai's Hero Talent 'Enjoy Delicious Food' started to take effect—when Duo Lai hosted a feast, the more Territory Citizens attending under its rule, the stronger Duo Lai's Devouring conversion efficiency became.

As a result, Duo Lai's already powerful Devouring efficiency was elevated even further.

When Mu Yuan was feasting, he naturally adopted the Duo Lai Template, inheriting Miss Duo's youthful version of the talent. In this state, his appetite could also be called limitless; swallowing a Legendary was not a problem at the very least.

However, to allow Duo Lai to absorb more nutrition, Lord Shepherd merely sampled some flavors, leaving the rest of the Epic delicacies for Duo the glutton to devour entirely.

'Ding!'

'Notice: Hero·Duo Lai devours an Epic-level material; base stats significantly increased, potential limit slightly increased.'

'Notice: Hero·Duo Lai absorbs and digests Epic-level material, awakening talents 'Elemental Ice Control (Beginner)' and 'Body of Ice Crystal'.'

----

'Body of Ice Crystal: Duo Lai can transform its Mimicry or Liquid Body into an Ice Crystal Body. In Ice Crystal form, Duo Lai's defense greatly increases, while its cold power receives a moderate boost.'

This feast allowed Duo Lai, besides two decent talents, to awaken several mid- and low-tier skills.

Mu Yuan skipped looking at those skills.

He only knew that after this devouring, General Duo Lai's basic stats had become terrifyingly high. A few more devouring events and Duo Lai's normal state energy reserves might surpass that of the perfect form Attendant Ascendants.

If at that time Duo Lai used the Overlimit Swallowing Skill again, how much more could its stats possibly balloon?

It would surely be significantly higher than the Legendary Realm.

Of course, this doesn't mean it could defeat a Legendary. The most powerful aspect of the Legendary Realm compared to the Leading Realm lies in the true Domain and the Power of Heaven and Earth. Although the basic stats of the Legendary Realm are equivalent to the Leading Realm Peak, the difference is like that between heaven and earth.

At this point, the remnants of the Extreme Cold Crystal Beast have completely vanished from this world.

Its value was thoroughly exploited, with not a single bit of waste.

If the Extreme Cold Crystal Beast had a spirit in the sky, surely it would be very comforted, too.

In the following two days, the Tianyuan Territory hosted three more grand feasts under the guidance of Chef Dolai. Everyone enjoyed themselves tremendously and expressed intentions to come again. freewёbnoνel.com

Duo Lai was a few small steps closer to the peak of the Leading Realm.

During this period, Lanxing grew even more turbulent, and the border areas of the Tai Xuan Alliance witnessed numerous high-level conflicts.

Many foreign powerhouses, lured by the scent of treasures, entered the Tai Xuan Domain repeatedly and came into conflict with the local Lords of Tai Xuan.

In the most severe incident, two outlying territories were obliterated by a foreign Lord.

Although, later on, this Lord was caught up with by high-level players from the Tai Xuan Liangyi and turned to ash on the spot, it couldn't make up for the fallen outskirts.

Just having experienced the disaster of the red fog, the outlying lands were ravaged once more.

Of course, typically, these powerhouses stepping into the Tai Xuan Domain would not target small outlying lands. They understand that destroying these small domains does not greatly benefit them but would attract the ire of powerful Tai Xuan figures.

Nevertheless, there were inevitably a few who were sick in the head.

Can the safety of a domain truly rely on whether others are sane or not?

Compared to such large targets as domains, the number of exploratory teams and armies lost to these foreign powerhouses was countless.

The Tai Xuan Liangyi did not have the strength to guard the entire periphery. Most of the time, the various Lords had only themselves to rely on.

For safety's sake, Mu Yuan nearly halted all long-distance exploration activities, only allowing a few commanders to enter Lanxing to assist Sophia.

The construction of the domain also did not come to a halt.

Farms began to spread outside the city. A group of Territory Citizens, transformed by job changes, became more robust and worked with more vigor and anticipation. The efficient combination pushed forward the domain's construction immensely during this period.

At the same time, Mu Yuan arrived in front of the Lord's Altar.

He looked in front of him at the three Secret Realm's Gates, arrayed in an arc, "Since the Territory of Stone Ridge Town is temporarily still at peace, and most of the commanders are within the domain, then let's tackle the projects that need to be tackled."
