Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate
Chapter 530 - 524: Monthly Settlement
"Charge!"
"Kill!!"
The earth-shattering cries of battle echoed across battlefields of all levels.
The Anti-Alliance Camp and the Realm Alliance’s armies were engaged in a frenzied battle, bodies strewn everywhere, the air thick with the stench of blood.
This battle was far more enduring than any that had come before.
Both sides fought fiercely from morning till night, showing no signs of retreat.
The Realm Alliance relied on the Holy Sanctuary. As soon as their species were exhausted, they would immediately teleport back to replenish their forces, then rush back into battle, making it difficult for the Anti-Alliance Camp to advance even an inch.
Even the battles above Tier Ten were at a stalemate due to the appearance of the Chaos Divine Format.
Lin You had lost track of how many times he had retreated to recover.
In short, whenever his Power of Rule was about to be depleted, he would instantly retreat to the rear, allowing others to fill in for him.
The only thing worth being grateful for was that.
Thanks to the two life-saving Skills of the Forest Sage and the survival ability boost from the Plant Racial Talent, his species loss wasn’t much.
Coupled with the wide-range group healing by the Lantern Grass unit, which was a miraculous healing skill, they could basically heal species back from the brink of death.
"Retreat!"
Finally, just before night fell, a loud shout came from the emperors high in the sky.
The heavily exhausted Anti-Alliance army immediately gave up their attack and retreated in the direction they had come, finally marking the end of the day-long battle.
"Let’s go!"
In the chaotic zone.
A crowd of kings no longer tangled with the enemy, quickly mobilizing their species to retreat, and in the blink of an eye, they dispersed and disappeared.
Lin You naturally followed the main forces, hurrying back to the War Camp.
Different from other lords.
He had gained immensely this time; he managed to snatch 4 pieces of the Chaos Divine Format, all provided by those hastily elevated weaklings.
So the first thing he did upon returning to his territory was to take out those formats and carefully store them inside the Origin Universe.
Whoosh!
Several sounds of breaking through the air resounded.
The Chaos Divine Format had just entered the Origin Universe when it turned into a stream of light and swept towards the World Tree.
It was then enveloped by the Life Aura, gradually dissipating the Aura of Chaos, merging into the World Tree.
However.
What Lin You hadn’t anticipated was.
After absorbing the Divine Fragment this time, the Faith Fruits on the World Tree did not increase, remaining at 250 in number.
But the power from the Divine Fragment transformed into a vast Life Aura, forming a massive halo around the World Tree, continuously rotating.
Immediately after.
The entire Origin Universe rumbled with a loud noise, suddenly starting to shake violently.
The primitive humans in the star systems all witnessed this miraculous scene in the void, falling to their knees in devout worship.
Streams of light flew out from those star systems, converging into the Life Halo.
The World Tree, standing tall at the center of the universe, erupted with a rule aura that Lin You had never experienced before, as if it was a power not belonging to this world.
Meanwhile.
Ten Royal Species, under some compulsion, appeared collectively in the Origin Space, each with a stream of light heading towards the Life Halo.
"Why are all of you here?" Lin You asked in confusion.
The Origin Space was a space formed by his soul, and the species were manifestations of his soul power, therefore having a very close connection.
But this sudden situation left him at a loss, completely unable to understand what was happening.
"We don’t know either, it’s as if we suddenly broke free from the rules outside and formed some connection with the rules of this space," Lingxi said in utter astonishment.
The existence of their species was brought about by the evolution of the Rules of the Ten Thousand Realms.
In other words, it was only with the Rules of the Ten Thousand Realms that they were born.
But now.
They had completely broken free from the shackles of the old world, establishing a connection with the newly-born rules of this Origin Universe.
Does this mean that the rules of this Origin Universe are of the same level as the Ten Thousand Realms Continent, or even higher?
Even with Lingxi’s calm nature, a trace of shock flickered in her eyes.
As their master, Lin You could naturally sense their thoughts, and he was utterly astonished.
At the same time, he was puzzled.
Why did only the Royal Species break free, while ordinary species couldn’t?
And would this change affect the Royal Species in any way?
One question after another surged in his mind, leaving him head spinning, ultimately forcing him to temporarily exit the Origin Space, his consciousness returning to his body.
"Forget it, let’s enhance my power first."
Seeing that changes in the Origin Universe were still ongoing, Lin You decided not to waste time.
Taking out a freshly ripened Faith Fruit, he exchanged it for a Rule Fragment, and immediately picked up one to absorb.
[Do you want to use the "Rule Fragment" to enhance attributes?]
"Yes."
As the words fell, the Rule Fragment in his hand soared into his body.
In the next moment.
Something strange happened.
The World Tree within the Origin Space immediately lit up with a glow, transforming into ten streams of light that merged into the bodies of the ten royals.
Then, all their four attributes actually increased by 1 point!
"What’s going on? Why did your attributes increase too?"
Lin You’s spirit was shaken, as if he had finally understood the significance of the change in the Origin Space, his eyes widened sharply.
"It seems like the rules of the master’s Original World took effect."
The summoned Cyan Gang said in a deep voice, with a hint of joy in his words.
"Hehe, I felt it too. When the master’s power increases, we also get stronger along with him." The Mushroom Demon King said playfully.
Subsequently, other members of the Royal Family began to speak up, claiming that their strength had been enhanced.
Lin You was extremely excited, not expecting that after the Origin Space absorbed the Chaos Divine Format, such a change would occur.
It swept away his previously gloomy mood due to the lack of increased Faith Fruit.
It’s essential to know.
The rule fragments required for the ten royal families to enhance their strength are extremely terrifying.
Even if he possesses Faith Fruit produced by the Origin Universe, he has no idea how many years it would take to improve their attributes.
He can afford to wait.
But the frequently warring Ten Thousand Realms Continent can’t afford to wait.
Although it still requires a long time to improve, it gives him hope, and he finally truly witnesses the powerful aspect of the Origin Universe.
Making him even more curious.
What will this universe ultimately develop into?
"Just right, it saves so many Faith Fruits, which can be used to develop the Duchy."
After absorbing a few more rule fragments to confirm it’s not an illusion, Lin You’s mood improved immediately and planned to use some resources to cultivate the lords below.
Anyway, he now produces 250 Faith Fruits per day, which is equivalent to 250 rule fragments.
For other duchies, this is unimaginable.
With so many faith resources for support, cultivating lords is not a problem for him.
Taking advantage of this ceasefire, he first plans to elevate the levels of the lords within the Duchy, to fill the gaps of the Tier Eight and Nine Lords, enhancing the national strength of Saint Protection Duchy.
Thinking about it, Lin You instantaneously teleports to the highest position in the palace, overlooking the entire capital city.
"Swish!"
Coincidentally, a Magic Energy Airship flew from afar, gliding over the city, and landed in the flying dock of the mountain area.
After a period of construction, the mountains have been transformed into a forging trade area dedicated to the Dwarf Kingdom opening markets here.
For this purpose.
Lin You specifically established a new flying dock over there, to accelerate the flow of trade.
Facts proved that this decision was very wise.
Because of the Dwarf Kingdom’s entry, many merchants and cultivators from neighboring duchies came here by name, gathering in Yellow Sand City via airships.
The population of Yellow Sand City suddenly surged to nearly two million!
Currently, Xue Changgui and the others have begun planning new city area matters, intending to expand the city’s range, otherwise it can’t accommodate so many floating populations.
It’s fair to say.
At this moment, Yellow Sand City has become a truly large city.
Standing at the top of the palace, one can clearly see the vast city stretching out, with bustling crowds along the streets.
In the sky, there are still guards riding flying mounts patrolling, and Magic Energy Airships flying towards various duchies.
It looks like a medieval industrial city.
"Time really flies."
Lin You sighed slightly, then withdrew his gaze, opening the duchy management interface to start various operations.
At that moment, the duchy channel, due to the end of the war, becomes more and more lively.
Lords who have just returned from the battlefield are excitedly discussing the recent Realm war, or showing off their gains, with messages flooding in continuously.
Until just at sunset, a prompt suddenly echoed in their minds.
[Attention all lords, the duchy ranking is starting the monthly settlement.]
[The system will issue rewards based on each lord’s strength ranking, please check and receive it in your personal space.]
...
"Eh? Is it already time for the monthly settlement?"
"I think it’s almost been a month indeed."
"Haha, I just barely made it to 100th place on the Tier Six ranking, finally able to receive the top 100 reward."
"Ahhhh! I was so close to getting into the top 100, if I knew I would’ve killed a few more demons to accumulate experience for my species."
"Monthly reward, eh? I wonder what they’ll be?"
"I heard our neighbors in Jiuhua Duchy reward higher-level Territory Essence and Magic Energy."
"Higher-level Territory Essence? Is it that good?"
The duchy channel was a chaotic mess, all stirred up by this sudden prompt, eagerly discussing and sending messages.
Then amidst a series of prompts, rewards for the Tier Six ranking started to be distributed, and lords on the ranking each received tips.
Merely.
When they saw the extra items in their personal space, they suddenly exploded.
"Whoa! My reward for being 100th is actually 500 Faith Points and 50,000 Magic Energy!"
"Am I seeing this right? The reward for the top ten is actually 1,000 Faith Points and 100,000 Magic Energy?"
"I got the same, 1,000 Faith Points for ninth place!"
"Gasp! 1,000 Faith Points? Really!?"
"Doesn’t that mean you can directly ascend to Tier Seven!?"
"Damn! If I knew I’d have increased my strength a bit more."
"The top 100 directly ascending to Tier Seven! That’s too exaggerated!"
