145: Chapter 145 High-Level Shock
The remaining enemy troops within Lin Xiao's territory were completely wiped out.
At this moment, the space-time tremors outside the territory also vanished.
Lord Gao Mu's reinforcements quickly regrouped, but they did not return immediately; that Human Race hero flew toward the central area alone.
Seeing this, Lin Xiao also brought several heroes out to meet him.
"General Lv, thank you for your trouble."
"Please tell Lord Gao Mu that Lin Xiao will keep this support in mind."
Lin Xiao said in a deep voice while looking at the seventh-order hero.
During their previous interaction, he had already learned the other party's name.
"I, Lv, have met Lord Lin Xiao. Fortunately, I have not failed my mission; the enemy troops have been cleared."
Lv Fang replied with a respectful expression, without a hint of condescension.
Although Lin Xiao was a lord, his status was naturally one level higher than a hero, but Lv Fang was a seventh-order hero, a full two levels higher than Lin Xiao.
With such a huge gap, it would be enough for Lv Fang to view Lin Xiao as nothing more than an ant.
However, when facing Lin Xiao, Lv Fang dared not be the slightest bit negligent.
This was not only because Lord Gao Mu had solemnly warned him when he came to provide reinforcements, telling him not to slight Lin Xiao in the slightest.
What was more important was...
The terrifying strength displayed by Lin Xiao's territory.
Especially those few heroes.
Lv Fang's gaze swept over Jiang Yao and the others with some shock.
He could feel the faint threat radiating from them, and with his rich combat experience, he immediately judged that the strength of the heroes under Lin Xiao was likely not below his own.
It was simply outrageous.
His rank was a full two levels higher than these heroes.
"Legendary."
"These heroes are all legendary grade, and they have other buffs as well."
Not only the heroes, but when he saw Lin Xiao, he also felt a sense of trepidation...
Clearly, the strength of this Level 5 Lord was also extremely terrifying.
In this situation, even if Lv Fang was a seventh-order hero, how could he dare to act superior?
"Lord Lin Xiao, I shall take my leave."
"I will certainly convey your words."
Lv Fang bowed slightly to Lin Xiao, then immediately regrouped with his subordinates and returned to Lord Gao Mu's territory.
Looking at the devastated territory, Lin Xiao did not feel much pain.
The final frantic attacks from Andrew and the others were indeed difficult to withstand and had caused significant damage to his territory.
However, most of what was destroyed were the outermost rare grade defensive structures and a portion of the perfect-grade defensive structures; the deeper structures suffered little damage.
rare grade defensive structures were no longer useful in future battles and were already slated to be phased out.
Even without this battle, Lin Xiao had intended to destroy them to clear up space.
Therefore, their loss was insignificant.
perfect-grade defensive structures were still the backbone of the territory's defense, but Lin Xiao did not care about these losses at all.
Compared to the gains, this loss was not worth mentioning.
The gains brought by thousands of gold-grade War Chests were too great.
The number of perfect-grade defensive structure blueprints opened alone far exceeded those lost in the battle.
Once he finished building them, his territory's defense would only become stronger.
And there were other terrifying gains...
Lin Xiao opened the regional channel and got busy.
He knew very well that the Four Great Races would not give up their offensive against him just because of one failure.
Now, his strength had been exposed.
The next attack would only be stronger and more lethal.
Of course, it would not come too soon.
What Lin Xiao needed to do was to grow rapidly before the lethal attack from the Four Great Races arrived, growing to a level where they could no longer stifle him.
...
As the great battle within Lin Xiao's territory came to an end, the relevant battle reports were quickly delivered to the hands of the high-level officials of the various races.
Main World, Lord Association headquarters.
Looking at the battle report before him, President Gu Yizhou felt a stormy sea rising in his heart.
He knew that Lin Xiao was relying on himself to resist the offensive of the Four Great Races.
But he had not expected the threat Lin Xiao was facing to be so terrifying.
What was most astonishing was that he had managed to hold on, only seeking aid from Lord Gao Mu when the Four Great Races launched an all-out attack.
"This kid always manages to be so shocking."
President Gu Yizhou scolded with a smile.
He did not doubt the authenticity of this battle report.
The content inside came partly from Lin Xiao, and partly from Human Race infiltrators within the Sin Race. Although Lin Xiao had downplayed it without detailed description, the Human Race infiltrators had gathered enough intelligence.
There were too many Level 5 and Sixth-order Lords participating in the attack on Lin Xiao; it was impossible to keep it completely secret.
A moment later, President Gu Yizhou calmed down.
With such terrifying potential, if Lin Xiao were to perish halfway, the loss to the Human Race would be too great.
Such a situation must be avoided.
Resources, some could be given.
Although the situation in the Second Source Sea was not as critical as in the First Source Sea, President Gu Yizhou was, after all, the Vice President of the Lord Association. By casually establishing a priority assistance program, he could approve quite a few resources for Lin Xiao.
As long as it did not involve legendary grade items, there wouldn't be much of a problem.
legendary grade, that was unavoidable.
The Lord Association didn't have many reserves, and the top-level Blue Star Lords had also set strict rules.
No matter who it was, items of this level could only be exchanged for using merit points.
Your own legendary grade items, you can give to whoever you want, but public ones, you cannot.
Besides resources, the most important thing was naturally to escort and protect Lin Xiao.
President Gu Yizhou knew very well that holding back the Sixth-order Lords of the Four Great Races was the greatest protection for Lin Xiao.
"So you want to fight?"
"Then let's keep fighting until Lin Xiao grows up."
A fierce glint flashed in President Gu Yizhou's eyes, and he quickly summoned the high-level officials of various major forces and Families who remained in the Main World.
To hold back the Sixth-order Lords of the Four Great Races, more Human Race forces needed to participate.
Of course, the Four Great Races had the upper hand in the Second Source Sea.
It was unrealistic for the Human Race to hold back all the Sixth-order Lords, but they had to keep a close watch on those Sixth-order top-tier lords and Super-spec Lords who posed the greatest threat, not giving them any opportunity to attack Lin Xiao.
"What!"
The major forces and Families who participated were shocked after learning of Lin Xiao's battle achievements.
While discussing in the meeting, they hurriedly arranged for their subordinates and clansmen to take action.
Some wanted to invest in Lin Xiao, while others wanted to establish a good relationship with him.
Unlike the small skirmishes in the First Source Sea, the potential Lin Xiao was now displaying was becoming increasingly astonishing; as long as he did not perish halfway, he would surely be a high-level official of the Human Race in the future.
Such a figure, even if he could not be won over, must absolutely not be offended.
...
Meanwhile, the Four Great Races also held their own meetings.
Sin Race rear world.
In the towering temple, the high-level officials of the Sin Race guarding the rear world gathered together.
"What are you all good for? You used so much power, yet you couldn't even take down a newly upgraded Level 5 Lord."
"Trash, Andrew is a small piece of trash, and Isaac, you are a big piece of trash."
"Murakami Takaya, why do you not follow the ancient method of punishment and commit seppuku?"
A group of Sin Race high-level officials were accusing each other.
There were quite a few Sixth-order Lords who participated in the all-out attack, and not everyone was just lying in their territory. After they were resurrected, they immediately reported all the intelligence they had gathered to the high-level officials of their respective races.
