141: Chapter 141 All-Out Offensive
Five hundred people fighting two million and managing to achieve this result—Lin Xiao naturally had no complaints.
In fact, if it weren't for the enemy army being primarily perfect-grade, the fact that many units had already been crippled, the lack of unified command due to coming from different races, and Lin Xiao's heroes being so powerful...
The outcome of this battle might have been rewritten.
After all, the disparity in numbers was just too great.
Unlike now, where the casualties... right, heavy casualties didn't actually exist either.
The five hundred who died in battle had all been resurrected at the samsara holy stele.
After this cycle of death and resurrection, Lin Xiao had figured out the operating rules of the samsara holy stele.
The resurrection was a perfect one; there was no such thing as falling into a period of weakness after being revived.
Not only that, but all negative status effects were completely wiped away.
For example, if one had used an explosive skill before dying, they would be restored to their peak state upon resurrection and could immediately use that explosive skill again without any issues.
Furthermore, it wasn't just the individual that was resurrected, but their equipment as well.
As long as the weapons and equipment hadn't been completely destroyed or stolen and lost, they would reappear with the individual at the samsara holy stele upon resurrection.
Of course, consumed items were definitely not included, and the equipment was simply retrieved; it wouldn't be restored to its peak state like the living being, remaining in whatever state it was in before death.
Such a resurrection was incredibly powerful.
Equipment and items were also part of one's strength; if they were dropped every time one died, it would be fine if they were low quality, but Epic Grade... that was something Lin Xiao couldn't afford.
Additionally, the resurrection time of the samsara holy stele was very short.
It seemed as if the beings in Lin Xiao's territory were like unkillable cockroaches; as long as there wasn't an insurmountable gap in strength between the two sides, could they just wear the enemy down to death by constantly resurrecting?
Unfortunately, that was not the case.
Lin Xiao saw it very clearly; the samsara holy stele relied on the power of life and death Reincarnation to resurrect beings.
The higher the rank and the stronger the target being resurrected, the more power of life and death Reincarnation it consumed.
Once the power of life and death Reincarnation was exhausted, the ability to resurrect would be lost.
This didn't mean that the dead heroes and Troop Types would be permanently lost, but rather they would be in a state of waiting for resurrection, only able to revive once the power of life and death Reincarnation recovered.
Judging whether the power of life and death Reincarnation was exhausted was also simple.
As long as one approached the samsara holy stele and no longer felt that sensation of being pulled into Reincarnation, it meant the power of life and death Reincarnation was depleted.
Regarding this, Lin Xiao indicated he could accept it.
They were both unique items.
For Killing Authority to improve the quality of heroes and Troop Types, one had to crazily slaughter beings to obtain slaughter points.
How could the samsara holy stele resurrecting beings possibly come without any cost?
However, he wasn't particularly worried.
Resurrecting five hundred Troop Types only consumed a very small portion of the power of life and death Reincarnation; as time passed, the power of life and death Reincarnation would constantly accumulate without an upper limit.
Trying to wear him down by exhausting the power of life and death Reincarnation wouldn't be that easy.
"Should I let the heroes resurrect once to refresh their status?"
This thought flashed through Lin Xiao's mind but was immediately dismissed.
Don't look at the fact that there were only six heroes; given their strength and quality, the power of life and death Reincarnation consumed for their resurrection would likely be far greater than that for five hundred Troop Types.
Who knew how many big battles were still to come.
The samsara holy stele had only just been bound, and the accumulated power of life and death Reincarnation wasn't much, so he definitely had to save where he could.
After all, the weakness after heroes unleashed their full power wasn't as severe as it was for Troop Types, and they still retained a certain amount of combat power at this moment.
Moreover, Lin Xiao looked at his territory panel; at this moment, the option to request reinforcements had lit up.
This was what happened when invaded by a higher-order Lord; the request for reinforcements could be triggered very quickly.
"The last wave of attrition has ended; what will you do next?"
"A full-scale attack?"
Lin Xiao's gaze turned toward the outside of his territory.
At this time, Andrew and the others, having received the latest battle reports, could not help but frown.
"Why do I feel like something is wrong?" Osmond couldn't help but say.
According to their calculations, the seventh-order army within Lin Xiao's territory should have had a lot of their Qi exhausted after so many rounds of attrition.
Facing the invasion of the sixth-order grand army, there was no possibility of holding back their strength.
They could only go all out and unleash their full strength.
Facing the full outburst of the seventh-order army, the sixth-order grand army was obviously no match; they would either be instantly killed in one wave or wiped out by large-scale bombardment.
However, judging from the feedback from the invading Lords, the battle between the two sides had a rather intense, stalemate-like quality, rather than the one-sided affair they had imagined.
Osmond inevitably felt some doubts in his heart: exactly how much strength did the seventh-order army within Lin Xiao's territory have left?
"Don't overthink it."
"Perhaps the seventh-order army in Lin Xiao's territory has been exhausted even more severely than we expected, which is why it's struggling to powerfully wipe out the sixth-order army," Andrew said in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, Lie Yan of the Bull Demon Race and Rosalie of the Shadow Race also nodded one after another.
They were more willing to believe this explanation.
However, it wasn't their place to think too much about it anymore; the higher-ups had already issued an order for them to immediately invade Lin Xiao's territory and launch a full-scale attack.
Strike while he's down.
"May we return in victory," Andrew looked at the three Lords, his expression solemn.
"May we return in victory."
"May we return in victory," Osmond, Lie Yan, and Rosalie also spoke up.
"Click." Andrew closed the communication device.
He slowly stood up. "Attack."
[Your territory is under invasion.] [Your territory is under invasion.] [Your territory is under invasion.] ...
Not long had passed since the last wave of the sixth-order grand army invasion.
New invasion notifications rang out crazily, as if they were death knells.
Lin Xiao counted; this time, there were as many as three hundred invasion notifications.
"It really is a full-scale attack," Lin Xiao realized.
The number of Sixth-order Lords of the Four Great Races in the Second Source Sea was naturally far more than just this.
However, they had to contain the Human Race Lords to prevent the latter from disrupting their encirclement, and Lin Xiao's territory upgrade was too sudden; being able to mobilize so many troops in one day was already astonishing enough.
Through the Eye of Truth, Lin Xiao observed these invading armies that had entered.
Many of the invading armies were the same size as the previous wave, numbering in the tens of thousands; presumably, their strength was not much different from those sixth-order armies that acted as cannon fodder in the last wave.
However, besides them, about one-fifth of the invading armies only numbered in the thousands.
Since it was a full-scale attack, it was impossible for them to be just making up the numbers.
Therefore, these armies of thousands were likely composed entirely of Epic Grade...
Their strength was far above that of the tens of thousands of sixth-order armies.
After these invading armies entered the territory, they immediately gathered at the fastest speed.
Lin Xiao naturally would not just watch; he and Guan Ri struck repeatedly, with one Extinction Ray after another shooting fiercely toward the invading armies, but the results this time were much smaller than before, only taking out over a hundred thousand people.
Looking at the surroundings of the territory, at the invading grand army that had already gathered together, unprecedented in both scale and strength.
Lin Xiao did not hesitate at all and immediately initiated a request for reinforcements to Lord Gao Mu.
The second chapter will be a bit late.
