186: Chapter 186 The Correct Use of Rare and Precious Materials

This colossal figure, as towering as a mountain, was precisely the seventh hero that Lin Xiao had just summoned through directional recruitment, and also a hero unit of the Giant Clan.

"Sorem greets you, Lord."

The giant knelt on one knee, paying a tribute of submission to Lin Xiao. With his movement, the entire sky seemed to darken.

"Rise."

Lin Xiao's thoughts stirred slightly as he opened the other party's attribute panel.

[Sorem]

[Quality: legendary grade]

[Tier: Tier 5]

[Physique: 10.9 million]

[Spirit: 10.95 million]

[Bloodline: Ancient Giant Royal Bloodline (SS-grade)]

[Skills: Lord of Eternal Frost (SS-grade), Primordial Demon Body (SS-grade), Extreme Cold Descent (SS-grade), Destructive Frost Star (SS-grade), Wrath of the End (SS-grade), Eternal Silence Halo (SS-grade), Outstanding Talent (A, Legacy)]

"As expected of a Giant King."

Lin Xiao wore a look of appreciation.

Whether it was his Bloodline, attributes, or skills, Sorem was not the slightest bit inferior to Ares of the same tier. Furthermore, his inherited Outstanding Talent was at A-rank, only one rank lower than the legendary grade Troop Types of the Human Race.

The two passive skills, Lord of Eternal Frost and Primordial Demon Body, endowed him with incomparably formidable physical attributes and the talent to manipulate the power of ice. In terms of physical strength, he was not inferior in the slightest to Dragon Kings like Ares.

Destructive Frost Star was an ultimate offensive skill, while Extreme Cold Descent was a super-large-scale crowd control skill.

Wrath of the End was a burst skill, while Eternal Silence Halo was a legion-level passive and racial-level passive similar to Ancient Resonance.

As long as Sorem was on the battlefield, all Frost Giants would receive the blessing of the Eternal Silence Halo, greatly increasing their strength. Not only that, all their ice-type magic would also receive blessings, significantly enhancing their power.

If Ares was a comprehensive upgrade to the Burning Sky Flame Dragon, then Sorem was undoubtedly a comprehensive upgrade and optimization for the Frost Giants.

Frost Giants only had one powerful output skill, Frost Explosion Star. Although they had also mastered ice-type magic, compared to the might of Frost Explosion Star, there was a huge gap.

As a Giant King evolved from a Frost Giant, Sorem had virtually no flaws. His Eternal Silence Halo even made up for the shortcoming of the Frost Giants lacking offensive methods.

Of course, a single trick can carry you through the world.

Although the Frost Giants had few offensive methods, based solely on the skill Frost Explosion Star, it was enough for them to gain a firm foothold in Lin Xiao's territory.

What satisfied Lin Xiao was that Sorem's appearance not only strengthened the Frost Giant legion, but his innate Crown of Frost and Winter Scepter were also exclusive weapons.

Exclusive weapons were the most suitable weapons and came with inherent growth potential.

Like Guan Ri's Hearthfire Bow, after slaying countless formidable enemies, it had now grown to Epic Grade.

Although the Crown of Frost and Winter Scepter were currently only perfect-grade, he figured it wouldn't be long before they also became Epic Grade equipment.

Lin Xiao wouldn't need to worry about Sorem's equipment in the future either.

"The result of this summoning is simply too good. It seems it was also influenced by the flower of fortune."

Lin Xiao understood this in his heart.

He had also learned his lesson. If there was a chance in the future, it would be best to perform summons while his luck was boosted, as that made it much easier to get top-tier items.

Because he had just been summoned, Sorem's strength was still too weak.

Without hesitation, Lin Xiao used eight Tier 7 Heaven And Earth Treasures to boost Sorem's attributes to 100 million. Combined with the Hunyuan Saint Body, it reached 200 million, catching up with Ares and the others.

An endless cold surge surged out from Sorem, causing the temperature of the surrounding area to plummet.

After advancing to the Sixth-order Lord, his body became even more colossal, standing a full five hundred meters tall. Standing within the central area, except for a few buildings, all other structures were beneath him.

However, he was not the largest living creature in Lin Xiao's territory.

After advancing to Sixth-order, Ares's size became increasingly colossal, and now he had grown to over seven hundred meters.

Compared to giants, dragons under the same strength clearly possessed even larger bodies.

Lin Xiao had Gunn, the leader of the Frost Giants, come over and take Sorem out to familiarize the latter with the territory's situation and make preparations for war.

There were still nineteen Tier 7 Heaven And Earth Treasures left, and Lin Xiao didn't keep them.

Using them on Sixth-order Troop Types would be too wasteful. Using them all up would only allow a few legendary grade Troop Types to reach attributes of 200 million.

The strength of Troop Types was far inferior to heroes. Even with the bonuses of Advanced military Formations, their individual strength could still not compare to heroes at all. Therefore, using them this way yielded too little benefit.

After thinking about it, Lin Xiao decisively chose to use them separately.

There was no rule saying that a Heaven And Earth Treasure could only be used by one person. Of course, after splitting them up, the medicinal efficacy would quickly dissipate and be lost, which was also the price to pay.

He called over all those newly summoned Tier 5 legendary grade Troop Types.

With a slight stir in Lin Xiao's heart, a Tier 7 Heaven And Earth Treasure was instantly split into over a hundred portions, with each portion capable of increasing hundreds of thousands of Physique or Spirit.

Stripping away the bonus of the Hunyuan Saint Body, these legendary grade Troop Types already possessed hundreds of thousands of attributes themselves. After consuming the fragments of the Heaven And Earth Treasure, their auras suddenly skyrocketed.

Once their Physique and Spirit both exceeded one million, their tiers smoothly Advanced to Sixth-order.

"Boom~"

It was as if a volcano had erupted within their bodies, and endless warm currents surged out frantically, causing the auras of these legendary grade Troop Types to skyrocket crazily.

In the end, their attributes stopped at just over 100 million.

"This is the truly correct usage of Tier 7 Heaven And Earth Treasures."

Lin Xiao wore a smug look on his face.

Under the effect of the Hunyuan Saint Body, as long as they Advanced to Sixth-order, an attribute boost of 100 million could be immediately gained.

Now, these newly summoned legendary grade Troop Types instantly possessed powerful attributes no lower than Tier 7.

Although their attributes were still a few tens of millions lower compared to the original Troop Types, the difference was no longer significant.

The nineteen Tier 7 Heaven And Earth Treasures that Lin Xiao had left behind all had very decent attributes.

After use, they could boost Physique or Spirit by at least twenty million, or even as much as thirty million.

Now, under his manipulation, two Tier 7 Heaven And Earth Treasures could allow at least a hundred legendary grade Troop Types to complete their advancement.

Isn't this much more powerful than only giving them to a few legendary grade Troop Types?

Lin Xiao only used twelve Tier 7 Heaven And Earth Treasures to give nearly six hundred newly summoned legendary grade Troop Types attributes exceeding 100 million each, making their strength not inferior to the Tier 7 legendary grade Troop Types of other lords.

The speed of their strength enhancement was comparable to riding a rocket.

However, only lords who possessed world wonders that directly added attributes could use such a method.

"Go on. Before the war truly erupts, get familiar with the Formation first."

Lin Xiao commanded.

The time left for them was too short; having these new Troop Types master the Formation was unrealistic. But they needed to become familiar with the Formation, obey commands, and thereby integrate into the Formation.

Afterwards, Lin Xiao upgraded all more than five hundred buildings in the territory to Level 6 at the fastest possible speed.

After finishing all this, his body flashed, and he appeared high up in the sky.

...

Just as Lin Xiao was doing his utmost to enhance his territory's strength, the latest intelligence regarding him was also delivered into the hands of the higher-ups of the Purgatory Race and Sin Race.

"Explain this to me. What does it mean that an invasion error occurred and you entered another lord's territory?"

"And what about this? After entering Lin Xiao's territory, you couldn't see a thing before being slapped to death by a giant palm descending from the sky?"

"Tens of thousands of Sea Race troops also appeared in Lin Xiao's territory?"

Looking at the full-of-loopholes intelligence brought back by the accompanying Sixth-order Lord, Isaac was instantly furious.
