148: A great harvest

"Old Dian, quickly tell me, what does it feel like to be resurrected from the dead?"

Wang Chiyao leaned closer to Wang Ledian, her big, dark eyes full of curiosity.

"It didn't feel like much. My vision just went dark, then light, and I appeared in the Tower of Rebirth."

Wang Ledian shrugged helplessly.

He also didn't want to waste this resurrection opportunity; the next time he wanted to use it, he'd have to wait a month.

Recalling that fatal arrow just now, he still felt a lingering fear.

A sneak attack from a Marquis-level Expert was impossible to guard against.

"Let me check!"

Wang Chiyao excitedly circled Wang Ledian, occasionally pinching his arm, prying open his mouth, pulling his hair... "Hmm, muscle elasticity is good, teeth are up to standard, hair..."

The Little Loli analyzed with great seriousness.

It had to be said, the Tower of Rebirth was indeed reliable; the resurrected Wang Ledian was identical to his previous self.

There was no use of lotus roots or similar items to reshape his body.

"Hey, hey! Are you treating me like livestock?"

Wang Ledian swatted away Wang Chiyao's hand, a vein throbbing on his forehead... "Let's see what good stuff this guy dropped."

Lin Xingyu walked over and began to "loot the corpse."

This was their first time killing a Marquis-level Expert.

Speaking of which, Marquis Chuanyun was quite unlucky, running into a "damage reflect monster" like Wang Ledian.

It was equivalent to taking a full-strength blow from himself, and without any defense.

He was severely wounded in one go, and in the end, he even lost his own life... Hearing the words "loot the corpse," everyone gathered around curiously.

They all wanted to see what treasures this Marquis-level Expert had on him.

"Brother Yu, what Rank is this armor?"

Wang Ledian's eyes gleamed as he eagerly stripped the armor from Marquis Chuanyun's body.

This armor was so cool!

It was entirely blue, with faint cloud patterns flowing across its surface, as if mist was moving between the plates.

Lin Xingyu looked over at the sound, and the information panel immediately appeared.

【Azure Cloud Flowing Shadow Armor】

【Rank: S】

..."This is S-Rank armor..."

Lin Xingyu stated the armor's information.

"Brother Yu, you see, I've already died once. Can I have this armor?"

Hearing it was S-Rank armor, Wang Ledian immediately put on a pitiful expression.

He had already wasted one resurrection opportunity and urgently needed to strengthen his life-saving abilities.

Seeing his appearance, Lin Xingyu subconsciously raised his foot to kick him.

Suddenly remembering that this guy had a damage reflect attribute, he abruptly stopped his action, almost twisting his waist.

"Get lost, get lost, quickly take it away, don't be an eyesore here!"

Wang Ledian cheered, eagerly putting the armor on.

A blue light flashed, and the armor automatically adjusted its size, perfectly fitting his figure.

He proudly spun around, striking various poses.

"Brother Xingyu, is this bow also S-Rank?"

Wang Chiyao fiddled with Marquis Chuanyun's exquisite longbow.

The bow's appearance was beautiful, but unfortunately, she didn't use bows, so she could only admire it.

"Yes, it's also S-Rank!"

Lin Xingyu nodded.

It had to be said, Marquis Chuanyun's equipment was luxurious.

S-Rank longbow, S-Rank armor, S-Rank Soul defense spirit gear, space ring...

Opening the space ring, it was piled high with various items: spirit crystals, potions, Materials...

There were no less than ten million units of spirit crystals alone, and the Materials were even more valuable.

The value of the items inside the space ring alone far exceeded the gains from their last raid on the Li family.

Not to mention those few S-Rank pieces of equipment, each worth tens of millions of units of spirit crystals.

Marquis Chuanyun even contributed himself, generating many evolution fruit, truly not a single bit was wasted.

"Wow, we've struck it rich!"

Wang Chiyao's mouth couldn't close as she looked at the spoils of war.

"Brother Xingyu, when are we going to hunt Marquis Rank Experts again?"

She looked at Lin Xingyu, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.

With Marquis-level Experts as "mobile treasuries," who would bother to painstakingly dismantle the Li family?

"Cough, cough..."

Lin Xingyu almost choked on his saliva, his face full of dark lines.

What do you take Marquis-level Experts for?

Kill them whenever you want?

If it weren't for Wang Ledian's damage reflect ability severely wounding Marquis Chuanyun, how could they have killed him?

Unfortunately, Wang Ledian's resurrection cooldown was too long.

Otherwise, he could be dragged to the Three-Eyed Clan World to wildly provoke those experts... Lin Xingyu distributed the usable equipment to everyone and threw the unusable ones into his Inner World for Luo Chengan to dispose of.

"Alright, let's continue forward!"

With the spoils organized, Lin Xingyu called out, leading everyone to fly towards the Goblin Secret Realm...

Outside the Goblin Secret Realm, at the Wave-Chasing Battle Group's station.

Inside the temporary command post, Commander Hong Lie looked at the intelligence handed over by his staff officer, lost in thought.

After losing dozens of small teams, the Federal Army finally understood the basic situation of the Goblin Secret Realm.

There were a total of seven large cities in the Secret Realm, each with a population of over a million.

The goblins had eleven legions, seven main combat legions, and four Garrison Legions.

The Seventh main combat legion was the one that invaded the Blue Star World last time.

If not for the limitations of resources in the Secret Realm, they could have formed even more legions.

"So many..."

Hong Lie frowned deeply.

Last time, to counter the invasion of one goblin legion, the Federal Army mobilized nine battle groups.

And that didn't even count the civilian forces.

Moreover, that was outside the Secret Realm, where Fifth- and Sixth-Order Evolver in the battle groups could intervene.

The Goblin Secret Realm was a C-Rank Secret Realm, only allowing up to Fourth-Order Evolver to enter.

Inside, nine battle groups might not be able to defeat one main goblin legion.

Besides the crippled Seventh Legion, the enemy still had six complete main combat legions, not to mention the Garrison Legions.

To take down the Goblin Secret Realm, an extremely large number of Fourth-Order Evolver would be needed.

The goblins were very smart; after learning of Blue Star's strength, they retreated into the Secret Realm and no longer came out.

They also set up numerous checkpoints on the other side of the spatial rift to prevent the Blue Star side from invading.

"What does the military command mean?"

Hong Lie rubbed his temples, looking at the staff officer beside him.

"The Otherworld Battlefield is under immense pressure, and military command cannot spare more support for now."

The staff officer's expression was solemn.

"They require us to organize elite small teams to infiltrate the Goblin Secret Realm and obtain technology related to goblin mecha."

"At the same time, the Federation has raised the reward amount to twenty million spirit crystals to recruit civilian Evolver to cooperate with this operation."

...Outside Zhu Lang City, in the wilderness.

The setting sun sank below the horizon, its afterglow painting the clouds crimson.

"Haha, we're back again!"

Wang Chiyao gazed at the spatial rift in the distance, brimming with excitement.

As long as she snatched those goblin mecha, she could form her own Mecha Legion.

"Buzz—"

Just then, the Heaven Treading Alliance token on Lin Xingyu's body suddenly vibrated.
