52: Chapter 52 Two Hundred Thousand Kill Points

Seeing the trade complete, Fang Yizhou breathed a sigh of relief.

With such a large amount of resources in his hands, he was on edge, fearing something might go wrong.

Now that they were handed over to Lin Xiao, the heavy stone in his heart finally fell.

"I should head back now."

After obtaining what he wanted, Lin Xiao did not intend to stay long.

"I will issue the order immediately..."

Fang Yizhou said hurriedly. He immediately prepared to issue an order to have his heroes and troops go all out to eliminate the Void Monster and end this rescue mission.

However, before he could finish his sentence, his expression changed drastically.

"Lin Xiao, my territory has been invaded..."

Fang Yizhou never expected that his territory would be invaded by an external enemy at this very moment.

This was truly a coincidence.

Fang Yizhou was uneasy, worried that Lin Xiao would overthink it.

After all, just dealing with the Void Monster was no longer enough; he had to deal with the invaders before he could return.

What worried Fang Yizhou even more was that if the invaders were strong and he couldn't deal with them quickly, Lin Xiao might be trapped here.

Lin Xiao's territory was already unsafe, and now it had lost him, its lord, to oversee it.

The situation would likely be very dire.

"Sigh, if only Lin Xiao had brought his army with him." Fang Yizhou felt somewhat helpless.

Lin Xiao was a Prodigy lord, and his heroes and troops must be incomparably powerful; dealing with the alien lord invading him would be effortless. Unfortunately, Lin Xiao hadn't brought any subordinates.

While Fang Yizhou was anxious, Lin Xiao remained very calm.

"No matter."

"We will handle whatever comes."

Lin Xiao glanced at Fang Yizhou and said indifferently, "Consider it a free protection from me."

"Ah?"

Fang Yizhou was still stunned, unable to react.

Lin Xiao paid him no further mind. With a thought, a longbow that seemed to be burning with flames appeared in his hand. It was the Rare-grade weapon he had opened from the War Chest, the Blazing Flame Bow.

"Swish, swish, swish~"

The next moment, countless pale red streams of light were poured onto the battlefield by Lin Xiao.

Beneath the city walls, the Void Monster that were attacking crazily suffered a devastating blow, and in the blink of an eye, they were wiped out completely.

Seeing this horrifying scene, Fang Yizhou's mind went blank.

"How is this possible? How is this possible?"

He couldn't believe his eyes.

Although the Void Monster attacking the territory were only Rank 0 and Rank 1, their numbers were too vast.

Even he had to rely on defensive structures and his army, going through a fierce battle, to eliminate them.

Yet Lin Xiao wiped them out with a wave of his hand.

This was definitely not Rank 2 combat power.

Had Lin Xiao's own strength already reached Rank 3?

It was no wonder Fang Yizhou found it hard to believe.

Generally speaking, a lord's growth speed was far inferior to that of heroes and troops, and in the early stages, they were more willing to spend resources on heroes and troops.

This also meant that a lord's own strength would be significantly lower than the territory's Rank.

Who would have known that in just half a month, Lin Xiao had grown from Rank 0 to Rank 3.

Fang Yizhou finally understood why Lin Xiao dared to come alone.

"Where are the invaders?"

Lin Xiao's voice rang out.

"Uh, I, I'll check, on the west side."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xiao soared into the air, instantly disappearing from Fang Yizhou's sight.

Immediately after.

The System notification announcing his victory in the invasion battle and the acquisition of a Bronze-grade War Chest rang in Fang Yizhou's ears.

He stood stunned in place, speechless for a long time.

...

After wiping out the invading enemies with one Frost Burst Star, Lin Xiao returned to his own territory.

"126.35 slaughter points."

Lin Xiao looked at his harvest; it was better than nothing.

His current slaughter points were already very close to 200,000.

The reason he had so many was that a small portion came from invaders, while the bulk was thanks to the Void Monster.

The Void Monster inside the four Void Land surrounding the territory added up to over two million. Not only that, the monster nests inside would continuously breed new Void Monster, bringing the number of monsters to over three million.

With so many Void Monster, if he could kill them all, it would at least earn Lin Xiao millions of slaughter points, a direct windfall.

Unfortunately, this sweet cake was something Lin Xiao couldn't eat for the time being.

It wasn't that his territory lacked strength, but that he didn't dare to go all out to clear them.

Therefore, he chose to cut the meat with a slow knife, going in to kill a wave from time to time, slowly harvesting the Void Monster.

By now, he had accumulated nearly 200,000 slaughter points.

The Black Armor Soldiers and Dragon Cavalry only needed 10,000 slaughter points to improve their quality.

However, Lin Xiao had been saving them, naturally intending to use them for Jiang Yao first.

The priority for heroes was undoubtedly above that of troops.

Shaking his head, Lin Xiao stopped overthinking. With one command, he summoned Taylor and the other Burning Sky Flame Dragon.

Item after item was taken out of his backpack, emitting a strange attraction.

Dragon Blood Grass.

Fusion Core Crystal.

...

Most of what Lin Xiao brought back this time were resources that could promote the rapid growth of the Burning Sky Flame Dragon.

He understood very clearly.

Now that the entire territory was at Rank 3, it was no longer appropriate to distribute resources among all troops like a communal meal.

Money must be spent on the cutting edge.

What Lin Xiao lacked most right now was the strength to quickly deal with hostile lords.

As the only Epic-grade troop in the territory, and a flying unit at that, the Burning Sky Flame Dragon undoubtedly possessed this capability. Investing resources in them was the best choice.

Although the Burning Sky Flame Dragon was already the strongest troop in the First Source Sea, to crush all lords, the stronger, the better.

Taylor and the other Burning Sky Flame Dragon flew over at top speed.

When they saw the Dragon Blood Grass, Fusion Core Crystal, and other items, their eyes immediately revealed a strong look of desire. If it weren't for their 100% loyalty to Lin Xiao, given the nature of the Dragon Clan, they probably would have flown down to snatch them.

"These are yours."

Lin Xiao didn't make things difficult for them. With a wave of his hand, the Dragon Blood Grass, Fusion Core Crystal, and other items flew towards them.

"Thank you, Lord."

Taylor and the other Dragons were overjoyed, swarming forward to divide up these resources.

"I will only give you two days. In these two days, you must do your utmost to improve your strength."

Lin Xiao said indifferently.

"Understood."

Hearing this, Taylor and the others dared not be negligent and all agreed with solemn expressions.

"It's a pity that I couldn't get the Red Lotus Domain."

Lin Xiao felt some regret.

The requirements to light up the Red Lotus Domain were extremely high. With the Source Crystal he had on hand, he was still a bit short, so he settled for the next best thing and exchanged them for various growth resources.

"Let's finish the slaughter points today."

Seeing that the missing slaughter points were no longer much, Lin Xiao thought to himself.

He did what he thought of and immediately rushed into the nearest Void Land.

Summoning Meteorite, Scorching Flame Dragon Breath, Frost Burst Star...

Various large-scale, terrifying attacks exploded in the monster horde, taking away the lives of countless Void Monster while also allowing Lin Xiao to harvest a large number of slaughter points.

When Lin Xiao finished the slaughter and rushed out of the Void Land, the slaughter points in his hand finally reached 200,000.
