96: Chapter 96 Abundant Harvest
The reason Lin Xiao stopped was naturally because the veteran lords and top-tier lords of the Four Great Races in the First Source Sea were all gone.
It was impossible for the Four Great Races to withdraw all their lords in just a day or two.
However, those veteran lords and top-tier lords were certainly the ones who ran the fastest.
As for the remaining ordinary Third-Tier Lords and those below the Third-Tier, Lin Xiao had no interest in them.
There were no merits to be gained, nor were there any profits.
His time was precious.
It would be better to leave them to other Human Race lords to resolve.
The Lord Association and the various major factions of the Main World would absolutely not miss the opportunity to beat a drowning dog; even if they couldn't uproot the power of the Four Great Races in the First Source Sea, they would still inflict maximum damage upon them.
"Only killed just over a thousand lords."
Lin Xiao shook his head, not too satisfied with his own results.
Given his current strength and speed of slaughter, if he really let himself go, he could certainly kill more in a day and a night.
Unfortunately, he couldn't do that.
The Four Great Races were not useless either; they were very clear about who the biggest enemy was for their veteran lords and top-tier lords wanting to escape.
Therefore, they sent out suicide squads to continuously invade Lin Xiao's territory.
They didn't seek to cause him much damage, only to hold him back.
After all, without resolving the invaders first, Lin Xiao wouldn't be able to immediately start the next invasion upon returning.
Now that the coordinates of Lin Xiao's territory had been exposed, they could continuously send personnel to invade.
Although these invaders were quickly dealt with by the heroes and Troop Types left behind, it did indeed slow down Lin Xiao's killing speed, allowing a large number of veteran lords and top-tier lords of the Four Great Races to escape.
"Forget it."
Lin Xiao didn't dwell on it too much.
The number of veteran lords of the Four Great Races was in the tens of thousands; how long would he have to kill for if he did it alone? It was enough to have taken out the fattest batch.
The number of top-tier lords was extremely small; the Four Great Races combined only had a few dozen.
Although they also fled at the first opportunity.
However, Lin Xiao had targeted them from the very beginning, and with the help of Human Race lords to hold them back, only half of the top-tier lords managed to escape; the others all became ghosts under Lin Xiao's blade.
Plus the previously resolved Dicas, Angus, and others.
The number of top-tier lords who died at Lin Xiao's hands totaled as many as thirty-nine.
Of course, this didn't count those who were temporarily promoted; the profits from killing the latter were about the same as other veteran lords and not worth mentioning.
These thirty-nine top-tier lords brought Lin Xiao the greatest profits.
Just destroying their territories earned Lin Xiao two Epic Grade building blueprints.
There were also relics and War Chests.
"I wonder how much I've gained."
A look of anticipation appeared in Lin Xiao's eyes. The spoils obtained from destroying territories relied too much on luck, and the quantity was only one, making it hard to get good items. However, War Chests and relics were different, especially relics.
Previously, he had been busy killing and hadn't opened these relics and War Chests. Now that the overall situation was settled, he could take stock of them.
[You opened a War Chest (Gold), obtaining 1 million Source Crystal...]
[You opened a War Chest (Gold), obtaining 1 million Source Crystal...]
There wasn't much to say about the War Chests. Even at the Gold grade, the best items they gave were only rare grade, which were no longer useful to the current Lin Xiao and could only be traded away.
Because the quantity was so large, over a thousand, he did manage to open some rare Cultivate resources.
He even opened a Third-Tier Heaven And Earth Treasure.
However, it was of no use to Lin Xiao; the Cultivate resources were only up to Third-Tier at best and couldn't keep up with the growth speed of his heroes and Troop Types.
Next were the relics.
They were also what Lin Xiao looked forward to the most.
[You opened the item "Dicas's Relic", obtaining 25.18 million Source Crystal, 1.2 million food, 2.3 million wood... Azure Sea Blade (Perfect), Ice Moon Spirit Stone (Fourth-Tier), Thunder Flame Magic Tower Blueprint (Perfect)...]
[You opened the item "Angus's Relic", obtaining 61.89 million Source Crystal, 300,000 food, 1.85 million wood... Star Flower (Fourth-Tier), Random troop talisman (Epic), Random Hero Token (Perfect)...]
[You opened the item "Tristan's Relic", obtaining 50.02 million Source Crystal, 3.4 million food, 1.9 million wood... Eye of Truth Blueprint (Epic), Random Hero Token (Epic), Rebel Army Halberd (Perfect)...]
As expected, the relics did not disappoint Lin Xiao.
Especially with top-tier lords like Dicas, the things they gave were both abundant and good. Although not every top-tier lord dropped Epic Grade items, they still far exceeded the veteran lords.
As Lin Xiao expected, after opening Kimura Shun's relic, it gifted him over a hundred Bronze-grade War Chests...
This was the first time he had obtained Bronze-grade War Chests.
[You opened a War Chest (Bronze), obtaining 300,000 Source Crystal...]
Compared to the Gold grade, the Bronze grade was indeed much worse.
After opening all the relics and War Chests on hand, Lin Xiao summarized the results.
Source Crystal reached several billion, basic resources like food and wood exceeded 100 million, and precious metals like silver and gold also amounted to several million.
The quantities of various Advanced resources were extremely vast.
Compared to the profits from killing Yager, it was a hundred times that of the latter, showing just how high Lin Xiao's harvest was.
The number of Epic Grade items dropped was not too high, only 24.
However, Lin Xiao was already satisfied.
The most top-tier lords like Yager were extremely rare, even among top-tier lords.
Most top-tier lords had very few Epic Grade items in their possession, and getting them to drop was even more difficult.
Although the quantity was not large, the quality made Lin Xiao's eyes light up.
"Mountain of Enlightenment, Eye of Truth!"
What surprised Lin Xiao the most were these two Epic Grade building blueprints.
The Mountain of Enlightenment, like the lingyun terrace and Tianxiu Peak, was also an auxiliary building that could allow the heroes and Troop Types that entered it to reach a state of Epiphany.
This was Epiphany; its effect was far more powerful than a flash of inspiration.
If Lin Xiao had a Mountain of Enlightenment in his territory, the strength of his heroes and Troop Types would grow even faster.
Moreover, this was an Epic Grade building that could be used all the way to the Third Source Sea.
It is worth mentioning that the Mountain of Enlightenment was not obtained from a relic, but was a trophy obtained after destroying a territory.
Clearly, the Mountain of Enlightenment was a pearl cast before swine in that top-tier lord's territory; now that it was in Lin Xiao's hands, its function could be maximized.
The Eye of Truth was equally important.
It had two functions: one was breaking illusions, and the other was vision.
As long as it was within its coverage area, Lin Xiao could see everything that happened, and at the same time, it could reveal all invisible units.
Undoubtedly, the Eye of Truth was an upgraded version of the tower of true sight.
Lin Xiao believed that its functions might be restricted in the First Source Sea, but once he headed to the Second Source Sea, he imagined the Eye of Truth would be able to cover his entire territory.
By then, he would be able to know everything happening within his territory without stepping out, and no one would be able to hide their presence within his territory.
