161: Assembly line results

"Well done," Brian praised.

"Order: Pupil Slaughter, Spirit Eye - Seek, and Spiritual Eye Xiu, initiate the traction procedures for planes A-01 through A-03 immediately. For A-01, choose the full reward. Since A-02 and A-03 have surrendered, choose the sub-plane reward for them."

"Yes!"

Within the Boundary Sea, the three Junior Planes began their respective journeys toward their destinations under the traction of World Power.

Plane A-01 was transformed through sacrifice into pure origin, talent blessings, and a precious Junior noble title certificate.

Planes A-02 and A-03 were stably anchored as Brian's private sub-planes. Although the rewards were significantly reduced, they retained their complete populations, ecosystems, and long-term development potential.

Feeling the newly added resources and the promotion qualification that had solidified a bit more, Brian knew it was time to let the entire family and his forces participate more deeply in this great journey.

He looked toward Heart and issued a new directive:

"Issue a recruitment order to the family and affiliated forces! Objective: Subsequent Junior Plane conquests!"

"Recruitment targets: Mages, Knights, and powerful individuals of affiliated races within the territory and all sub-planes who have reached Level 3 or 4! Squad-based applications are permitted. After passing the assessment, they will be incorporated into the Expeditionary Army, under the unified command and coordination of Pupil Slaughter, Spirit Eye - Seek, and Spiritual Eye Xiu!"

"For those with outstanding meritorious service, rewards will be generous!"

This recruitment order, aimed at the backbone of the wider foundation, instantly ignited the enthusiasm throughout the entire Jose sphere of influence!

Plane conquest, which had previously been unattainable, now opened its doors to more people.

Long queues formed in front of the registration points.

In addition to the strong individuals from the territory itself, human talents from the Dawn Plane, newly affiliated construct creatures from the Verdant Source, and Wood Elemental Envoys all participated enthusiastically.

Brian also specifically contacted his third uncle, Klein Jose.

"Third Uncle, a new conquest is about to begin, and we really need an experienced mage like you."

On the other side of the light screen, Klein was wearing the mentor robes of the Advanced Mage Academy, with a gratified yet firm smile on his face:

"Brian, seeing your achievements today, your third uncle is sincerely happy for you. However, I am still better suited to stay in the academy. With you and those amazing Spirit Eye girls on the front lines, I am very reassured."

Brian understood and respected his third uncle's choice.

Everyone has their own path, and the role the third uncle plays in the academy system is equally indispensable.

After strict assessments hosted separately by Execution (combat), Spirit Eye · Mi (adaptability), and Spirit Eye Xiu (collaboration), several auxiliary legions composed of Level 3-4 powerhouses were selected.

Although their individual strength was far inferior to the Spirit Eye and robot legions, their rich professional combinations, local combat experience, and desire for merit made them a powerful supplementary force.

These legions were incorporated into the three major Expeditionary Army sequences.

They would no longer be the main force of conquest, but would instead be responsible for tasks such as maintaining stability in occupied areas, exploring specific environments, and preliminary development of resource points, learning and growing through practice.

Looking at the mixed legions ready for departure on the light screen, Brian's gaze was profound.

"Pupil Slaughter, Spirit Eye - Seek, Spiritual Eye Xiu, rest and resupply, and receive the auxiliary legions. Next target—Junior Planes numbered A-04 to A-06!"

"Begin preliminary exploration!"

The successful conquest and proper handling of the three Junior Planes brought Brian rich returns.

The fully sacrificed Plane A-01 provided valuable noble title certificates and resources, while the sub-planes [Sea of a Thousand Sails] and [Emerald Forest Realm] were like two newborn stars, adorning the Jose sphere of influence, bringing unique population, technology, and ecological potential.

Standing at the peak of the Main Tower, overlooking the increasingly prosperous territory, Brian's thoughts drifted to the more distant future.

The smooth operation of the Enlightenment Academy solved the basic education problems for his descendants and the descendants of core members, but this was far from enough.

"Heart," Brian called out:

"Our territory now has plenty of talent, but it lacks a systematic intermediate and advanced training system. Relying solely on the Enlightenment Academy and the Junior Mage Academy is difficult to support long-term future development."

Heart immediately understood what he meant: "Does Master want to establish higher-level Mage Academies?"

"Correct," Brian nodded:

"In my vision, we need to establish at least an Intermediate Mage Academy and an Advanced Mage Academy to form a complete training chain.

Junior academies can only train mage apprentices; intermediate academies train Level 1 Mages; advanced academies train Level 2-3 Mages. After reaching Level 4 during their time in the advanced academy, they can graduate early after passing an assessment."

He paused, scanned the territory boundaries, and shook his head slightly:

"It's just that with the current scale of our territory, accommodating two fully functional and well-equipped Mage Academies still seems a bit cramped. Especially the Advanced Academy, which requires large laboratories, simulated battlefields, and even small-scale plane observation points."

A clear plan formed in his mind:

"For the next plane conquest, if there is a suitable target, we can choose the land transformation reward, integrating the land essence of one or two planes into the main territory to expand our territory. At that time, there will be enough space to prepare for the academy system."

He thought of his third uncle, Klein, who had deep connections and rich experience in the Mage Academy system.

"At that time, we can officially invite Third Uncle over to preside over the preparation and management of the academy. His accumulation in the field of education is exactly what we urgently need."

"This plan is wonderful!" Heart's eyes shone:

"Systematic education is the lifeblood of power inheritance. Once the academy is built, Tong Xi can serve as a professor of alchemy and runology, Pupil Slaughter can offer elective courses in tactical command, and Spirit Eye - Seek will definitely be able to teach Plane Commerce well."

Brian couldn't help but smile as he listened to her already arranging other clones.

With the assistance of the Spirit Eye Network, the academy's faculty would certainly not be a problem.

"This matter needs to be considered in the long term; we will start it after we have a broader territory."

Brian stored this blueprint in his Heart for now and cast his gaze back to the Boundary Sea Star Chart: "The current primary task is still to accumulate the qualifications to be promoted to Viscount."

At this moment, Heart's expression became serious, and she reported:

"Master, Pupil Slaughter, Spirit Eye - Seek, and Spiritual Eye Xiu have completed the preliminary reconnaissance of planes A-04 through A-06, and the auxiliary legions have also been integrated. These are the operational plans sent back by the three of them; please review them."

The light screen displayed three completely different plane images and detailed strategy plans.

Plane A-04 seemed to be a world covered in lava with violent elemental creatures;

Plane A-05 was ruled by endless swamps and strange fungal life;

Intelligence on Plane A-06 showed that there was a highly unified empire of humanoid creatures inside that worshipped an evil god.

Brian quickly browsed through the plans, his eyes calm.

With the successful experience of the first three times and the addition of the local auxiliary legions, he was full of confidence in the upcoming conquests.

"Approve all operational plans," he ordered. "Pass the order: according to the plan, divide the troops into three routes; the conquest begins!"

"Yes!"

The order turned into invisible ripples, spreading into the depths of the Boundary Sea.

The three expeditionary armies, fusing cold machinery and passionate life, led by three Spirit Eye commanders with distinct styles, like three unsheathed sharp swords, fiercely pierced into the new worlds.

Brian remained at the command center, paying attention to the progress on the front lines while meticulously planning for the future—

Not just the upcoming plane conquests, but also the academy construction after territory expansion, technological integration, and the deep reorganization of family forces.

His path, through repeated conquests and construction, became increasingly clear and broad.

Power, knowledge, and inheritance, like three solid pillars, together supported the magnificent framework of a great family.

And all of this would begin with the dust settling on these three Junior Planes.
