143: Chapter 143 One-Hit Kill

"That is… the Military Formation Technique at the Realm of Perfection?"

Lin Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the terrifying figure that stood hundreds of meters tall.

The army sent by Lord Gao Mu had condensed a figure that resembled a Human Race general, which indicated that it was at most an Intermediate Military Formation Technique.

However, it had been Cultivated to the Realm of Perfection.

The power it displayed at this moment was far beyond what the Military Formation Techniques of other lords could compare to.

The Military Formation Techniques of other lords provided huge bonuses to attack, defense, speed, and other aspects, but that was all.

Their methods of attack remained unchanged; they were the same as before, only their power had increased.

But this reinforcement army from Lord Gao Mu was different.

The aura and power of all the heroes and Troop Types were condensed into one, and under the bonus of the Military Formation Technique, it caused a complete qualitative change.

On Lin Xiao's side, there was curiosity and anticipation.

On the side of the invading army, there was panic.

If Lin Xiao could see it, how could these Sixth-order armies, seasoned in battle, fail to see it?

However, Lord Gao Mu's reinforcement army did not give them a chance to catch their breath.

After the terrifying figure hundreds of meters tall condensed, it immediately launched an attack.

The distance between it and the Sixth-order army gathered on the west side was only about thirty kilometers.

This thirty kilometers was crossed by the terrifying figure in the blink of an eye.

The Human Race hero at the core of the Formation raised the Halberd in his hand, and endless power gathered within his body.

At the same time, the terrifying figure enveloping them also raised a black halberd.

Incomparably terrifying power was condensed onto the black halberd.

"Army Breaker."

As the Human Race hero swung down the Halberd, the black halberd, which was hundreds of meters long, smashed down fiercely towards the million-strong army in front.

"Block it for me!"

"Shatter it!"

The Sixth-order army gathered on the west side was very clear about the terror of this strike.

They naturally would not sit and wait for death; under the command of some Sixth-order Lords, they desperately launched a counterattack.

Countless attacks bombarded the terrifying figure, wanting to shatter it, and even more so, wanting to kill the Seventh-order army within the terrifying figure.

The attacks of a million-strong army were naturally not to be underestimated.

However, the Intermediate Military Formation Technique at the Realm of Perfection was even more powerful.

The terrifying figure trembled slightly but did not collapse. Many of the Seventh-order army members inside were shaken and affected, but not a single one died.

The invading army's desperate counterattack did not work. The next moment, that incomparably terrifying black halberd smashed fiercely into the million-strong army.

"Boom~"

Incomparably terrifying power erupted instantly, and a huge sphere of light rose between heaven and earth.

The entire desolate territory was trembling and shattering.

The tidal wave of power's aftermath spread wildly across the entire territory.

Fortunately, in Lin Xiao's territory, the outer Epic Grade barracks were not so easily destroyed, and the central area was guarded by the star dome barrier. It only endured some of the aftermath of the power, so it was not a big deal.

"Hiss."

With the help of the Eye of Truth, Lin Xiao saw the result of that strike and immediately couldn't help but gasp.

He saw that the vast majority of the Sixth-order army gathered on the west side had been instantly annihilated.

Only a very small number who were further away, or heroes and Troop Types with powerful life-saving abilities, survived.

"Terrifying to this extent."

Lin Xiao exclaimed.

He was not too surprised by the results of this strike.

This army sent by Lord Gao Mu had a full 20,000 troops.

20,000 Seventh-order Troop Types, an Intermediate Military Formation Technique at the Realm of Perfection, and perhaps other bonuses—after all, Lord Gao Mu was introduced by President Gu Yizhou, so he certainly couldn't be compared to an ordinary Seventh-order Lord.

Perhaps there was even the blessing of a world wonder.

Even if it were just an ordinary world wonder, while the bonus might not be as large as a high-level world wonder, it could still significantly increase strength.

Even if Lord Gao Mu was not a top-tier Seventh-order Lord, among the veteran Seventh-order Lords, he was certainly among the strongest.

Therefore, it was understandable that he could wipe out a million-strong Sixth-order army in one strike.

After delivering that terrifying strike, Lord Gao Mu's reinforcement army did not pause at all.

"Rotate."

As the Human Race hero gave the order, the Formation adjusted instantly. Some of the overly exhausted Troop Types were replaced, and the terrifying figure returned to its peak state, charging toward the north side of the territory at the fastest speed.

[Invasion ended. You have achieved victory. Starting settlement.]

[You have obtained a War Chest (Bronze).]

[You have completely annihilated all invaders. You have obtained the information of the opposing lords, as well as one opportunity for revenge.]

...

The System prompts kept ringing in Lin Xiao's ears.

That strike from the reinforcement army wiped out many invading troops, which also allowed Lin Xiao to obtain quite a few War Chests.

Of course, because it was the reinforcements who acted, these War Chests were only the lowest Bronze grade.

However, Lin Xiao did not mind.

Bronze grade was still better than nothing.

After all, relying on himself alone, he really couldn't win.

While the reinforcement army was slaughtering, Lin Xiao was not idle either.

He and Guan Ri kept making moves, attacking the invading armies in other directions, pulling them into a state of combat so they could not escape.

At the same time, Lin Xiao also launched an attack on the remnants on the west side.

Lord Gao Mu's reinforcement army needed to destroy the Sixth-order armies around the territory at the fastest speed and had no time to waste energy on these remnants, so it worked out for Lin Xiao.

These remaining heroes and Troop Types were quickly harvested.

Unfortunately, there was no System prompt for killing a lord.

The Second Source Sea was different from the First Source Sea; lords could revive with the help of the territory core. Merely killing a lord once could not destroy their territory.

Only by destroying the territory core could a lord be killed.

Of course, this did not mean that the other party was not afraid of death.

After all, the cost of resurrection was high, and it was higher each time.

Among these Sixth-order Lords, there were perhaps many who could no longer afford the cost of rapid resurrection. After being killed, they could only lie dead in their territory.

They had to wait for the territory core to accumulate enough energy to revive them.

That would take a long time.

During the resurrection period, the territory had no lord to preside over the overall situation and could only leave its fate to the heavens.

[You have obtained a War Chest (Silver).]

A Silver grade War Chest was also not bad.

Lin Xiao continued the slaughter.

"Lin Xiao, it's him."

"The one we have been fighting all along is Lin Xiao."

Those Sixth-order Lords who were wiped out finally realized it before they died.

Andrew and the others, who received the warning from their companions, only felt a chill rush straight to their heads.

So, it was Lin Xiao who had been fighting them all along.

A Level 5 Lord who had just upgraded not long ago had withstood their attacks and held on until now.

"How is this possible?"

Andrew could not understand.

Even if Lin Xiao was a Super-spec Lord, it would still be difficult to achieve, right?

Could it be that he had a high-level world wonder, as well as Legendary Heroes and Troop Types, or even an Advanced Military Formation Technique?

But changing heroes and Troop Types on a large scale would cause loyalty to plummet.

Could he have a way to maintain loyalty or quickly increase it?

Had the Human Race upper echelons gone mad?

Investing so many top-tier resources into a lord who had just upgraded not long ago?

Were they not afraid that their investment would go down the drain?

Even a Super-spec Lord could fall, and once they fell midway, all the early investment would come to nothing.
