101: Chapter 101 Have all the island's residents become Battle Qi Masters?
Under the siege of tens of thousands of Floating Bones and 10 Wraith Knights, Xu Xuan was actually able to summon another Divine General for defense.
When the foreign lords saw Yang Jian, they had no idea who this figure was.
However, the domestic lords immediately understood who this Divine General was the moment they saw the third eye on Yang Jian's forehead and the slender black hound beside him.
Yang Jian's combat power was astonishing. Facing three Wraith Knights at the pseudo-Peak Realm, he could fight with ease with the assistance of the Xiaotian Dog.
In less than a few minutes, the 10 Wraith Knights invading the island were strangled by the Divine Generals working together!
As for the Floating Bones flying all over the sky, they did not pose much of a threat to the Floating Island.
When the last Wraith Knight was split open by Chi You's axe, the system's voice came from the sky.
[Global Announcement: The 10 generals of the Undead Scourge invasion legion have been slain by the Great Xia Lord, Xu Xuan! A head-on blow has been dealt to the invaders, severely dampening their arrogant spirit!]
At this moment, the more than seven billion lords on the Lord Continent all burst into cheers as they watched this message.
Great!
Well fought!
That Necromancer God Lord had previously vowed to kill Xu Xuan, but in the end, those 10 seemingly unstoppable Wraith Knights were all slain by Xu Xuan.
Moreover, Xu Xuan's side did not lose a single person, which also made the vast number of lords curious about the generals in his hands.
When people in the chat channel asked, they found out that these were Divine Generals, summoned Heroic Spirits or figures from his own country's history and mythology.
In the image, the angry, low-pitched male voice of the Necromancer God Lord came from the ten-thousand-meter-high Gate of White Bone.
It was clear that the Necromancer God Lord was suppressing his anger; he did not want to lose his composure in front of mortals.
"Go ahead and cheer, be thankful! Does killing just 10 pieces of trash under my command make you this happy?"
"If it weren't for the restrictions of the chess law, this deity would only need one finger to crush all seven billion of you humans!"
The voice was tinged with annoyance and helplessness.
It seemed that some kind of law was restricting the Necromancer God Lord, allowing him to only deploy weak troops into this space.
Xu Xuan, who was on the Floating Island, rubbed his chin and began to think.
"It's likely that the Necromancer God Lord is also restricted by the so-called Supreme Laws, just like how the Divine Generals' combat power is locked."
This was his own speculation.
After all, the humans on Earth were too weak. Without the protection of the laws, if they were thrown directly onto the Battlefield of Myriad Races, the people of Earth would die without even a trace left.
Who exactly was the mastermind behind this Lord War?
That Supreme Will could actually restrict even gods...
Even a god of the Necromancer God Lord's level had to yield to the chess law.
If that was the case, it should be that all races are brought to a similar level to duel, continuously weeding out the weak like raising Gu.
However, there was no use in thinking too deeply. Since humanity was forced to participate, they could only do their best to survive this war, constantly growing stronger to avoid being eliminated.
Pulling his thoughts back, he still had to face the trouble in front of him.
The strongest combat power of the Necromancer God Lord's second wave of offensive had already been taken down by Xu Xuan, so the next third wave would definitely be even more fierce.
Moreover, that god had already noticed him, Xu Xuan. In the third wave, he would definitely be targeted.
Thinking of this, Xu Xuan used a voice transmission to ask: "Tao Shi, has the gold been refined?"
Tao Shi, who was in the workshop area, immediately replied.
[Tao Shi: My King, we have currently refined 2.3 tons of gold. The quality of this batch of gold ore is very pure, and we easily removed the impurities.]
The story behind these gold mines on Xu Xuan's island was a long one.
When he conquered the Japanese and Korean vassals, the land he occupied on the ground was roughly the size of Guangzhou City.
Although his main territory was the Floating Island, those occupied open lands and the territories of his vassals nominally belonged to Xu Xuan as well.
Part of the gold ore was handed over by the vassals, while another part was gold mine resources spawned when the Floating Island expanded; some open-pit gold mines hadn't even been excavated yet.
On undeveloped land like the Lord Continent, gold mines were relatively easy to find; one could even pull gold sand out of the rivers.
The workers worked overtime to refine the gold ore from the warehouse. These large chunks of gold ore had high purity and could be refined without much processing; the gold content of the ore was very high.
It was just like the iron ore; the open-pit iron mines on the island were practically solid iron with very few impurities.
If one had an understanding of the iron smelting industry in Great Xia on Earth, they would know that the iron content in domestic iron ore on Earth was very low and required many processes to be refined.
Back to the present, Xu Xuan waved his hand to open the resource bar and check.
[Current Gold: 2.354 tons.]
Almost all the inventory had been refined, coming in handy just in time.
Every 100 grams of gold could allow an ordinary person to transform into a Battle Qi Warrior. 2 tons of gold was enough to transform 20,000 mortals into Martial Artists possessing Battle Qi!
Thinking of this, Xu Xuan spoke up: "Grand Preceptor Wen, immediately arrange for 20,000 soldiers to enter the Battle Qi Academy for further studies."
It was certainly impossible to cram 20,000 people into the Battle Qi Academy at once, but they could be sent in batches.
In less than a minute, the soldiers could undergo a 5-year training period inside the Battle Qi Academy.
When the time came, as long as there was enough gold to transform all seventy-thousand-plus people on the island into Martial Artists with Battle Qi, the thought alone was terrifying!
An old official like Grand Preceptor Wen was very skilled at arranging personnel work.
He directly had Grand Preceptor Wen take the gold to the entrance of the Battle Qi Academy to arrange for the soldiers to enter in sequence.
The large number of soldiers guarding the island were divided into regiments of one thousand people and arranged in batches to enter the Battle Qi Academy for accelerated study.
The entire Battle Qi Academy was surrounded by that Acceleration Barrier, and the people inside passed a 5-year training period in the blink of an eye.
Raw recruits with tender skin went in, and what came out were groups of muscular, bearded Battle Qi Martial Artists.
With this training speed, having gold was indeed great. It seemed he would have to scrape up more gold in the future.
On Xu Xuan's side, he was fighting while simultaneously producing, mining gold, and refining elite troops.
Meanwhile, the lords below the island had it much harder.
Although most of the firepower was drawn by Xu Xuan, the Necromancer God Lord began to vent his incompetent rage, commanding his army from across the void behind the Gate of White Bone to bloodily suppress the other lords.
The Necromancer God Lord couldn't beat Xu Xuan, but could he not beat you bunch of small fry?
In the spirit of venting his anger, the Necromancer God Lord poured his wrath onto foreign lords like Miyamoto Takeshi and Jack.
Their defensive lines retreated step by step, until the entire front had changed!
From the sky, it was originally a 20-kilometer-long battle line spread out in a straight line.
Now, all the lords had retreated to the side of the Floating Island, centering themselves around the Floating Island and surrounding Xu Xuan for defense.
And an even worse problem appeared: the plague!
The Undead Legion's plague was like a chronic toxin, slowly weakening the soldiers' combat power.
Miyamoto Takeshi and the others immediately discovered that the plague was spreading through their troops.
[Nearby Chat Channel]
[Miyamoto Takeshi: Damn it! More than 30% of my troops have contracted the weakness plague!]
[Jack: Now that you mention it, I just realized that 39% of my soldiers are already infected!]
[William: Help!! I've been infected with the weakness plague myself. My whole body feels weak. Who has an antidote?]
Just then, Xu Xuan raised his hand and typed in the chat channel.
[Xu Xuan: Selling Detoxification Potions, one bottle for 10 grams of gold. Find me if you want them. If you are from Great Xia, I'll give you a 50% discount.]
