Chapter 372 - 378: The Battle Begins Anew
Hang Yu learned the Transfer Skill and maxed it out.
The Transfer Skill can cause an instant transfer effect, similar to Flashing Skill.
However, it cannot be used on oneself, but rather targets others. It can be used for defense and support. Though it is a First Tier skill, if used well, it can play a major role.
"First Tier heritage Flashing Mage successfully activated!"
[Flashing Mage], First Tier heritage, permanent Intelligence +2, permanent Spirit +3, permanent Spiritual Power +4.
As a First Tier heritage, the improvement is quite limited. The Intelligence attribute is of no use to Hang Yu, but the Spirit and Spiritual Power attributes are very useful with considerable boosts, enough to extend Hang Yu’s endurance. The importance of endurance time for a real man need not be elaborated.
Rapid Shadow Instant Kill, Rapid Shadow Sword Qi, Overlord Body Armor, three major Third Tier skills acquired!
Hang Yu’s combat style and combat power further received qualitative enhancements.
Of course, this process consumed a lot of Spiritual Qi, the upgrade of Third Tier skills is enormously consuming, so activating the Rapid Shadow Warrior heritage has to be postponed.
Hang Yu purchased Mid-Level Recovery Potion formula with the remaining Crystal Stone, along with some Spirit Beast Pill.
The former is for nurturing production capacity of the Cyan Dragon Group. Currently, for experts around level 10, Low-level Recovery Potion obviously cannot meet consumption, so it’s time to put the production of Mid-Level Potion on the agenda.
The latter is prepared for Dog, who is about to upgrade and evolve again. The green Spirit Beast Pill can speed up this process; Dog has been quite diligent lately, sharing a lot of work with Hang Yu, so it’s time to give him some benefits.
Also helped Su Yunbing and others purchase some supplies.
For Hang Yu, the shopping purpose has already been achieved.
He found that the goods a Mysterious Merchant can carry are ultimately limited. With the national Crystal Stone GDP level rising, and the population in Deserted Valley Town increasing, it’s now easy to experience stock shortages, so many present people didn’t get what they wanted, especially those towards the end of the line.
Hang Yu considered raising the participation threshold.
Making the Mysterious Shop a featured paid service of Deserted Valley Town.
This would indeed be a major revenue-generating project and could bring Hang Yu a considerable additional income.
Hang Yu asked, "Have our neighbors been making any moves recently?"
Xu Tianhua replied, "No movements for now, but it should be soon. Our scouts have seen their deployment more than once, and the attack could be within the next few days."
"Keep watching them!" Hang Yu said, "Have everyone pay attention to their online times in the coming days, and be ready to heed the summons anytime offline, always staying in combat readiness."
Xu Tianhua replied, "Yes!"
Zhao Ming came over and said, "Since yesterday, the troop strength in Deserted Valley Town has been at full capacity. Should we expand the troop limit?"
Has the recruitment filled up to two thousand troops?
Hang Yu thought briefly and said, "How much stock of materials do we currently have."
"The total of five basic materials is around twenty thousand pieces," Zhao Ming said. "Main sources are recent wars and imports from the real world. If we put in full effort, we can upgrade half of the residential buildings at most, increasing our troop limit by 1000."
The five basic materials are: Cold Iron, Fire Copper, Mithril, Refined Gold, Black Iron Wood.
These five materials are the most widely used in territory construction and production manufacturing.
Early-stage territory upgrades and summoning Subspecies soldiers will require these materials, and their distribution is quite large, both in the real world and Spirit Realm.
However.
Material grades within Jiang City generally do not exceed level 6-7.
It must undergo continuous refinement to reach level 10 usage standards.
The material output in the Fishman Base will explode next, and we can plunder several good neighbors to supplement.
"Hmm, don’t fret too much about basic materials, throw them all in, upgrade the town capacity first then continue expanding the corps, next soldier recruitment requires infantry to account for 50%!"
"Yes!"
Others didn’t idle either.
Upgrade should be quick, skill upgrading should be swift, prepare Potions, Scrolls, Magic-Guiding Equipment promptly for battle readiness; everyone was waiting to make merits in the next fight.
The wait wasn’t long.
The good neighbors of Deserted Valley Town didn’t disappoint.
On the third day, reconnaissance units returned with reports that they finally started assembling, an unusually massive force broke through the edge of Deserted Valley Town’s territory, heading towards Deserted Valley Town.
Everyone was shaken!
The news even quickly spread in the real world.
Influential internet personas swiftly reposted this matter.
The more responsive media released news rapidly, drawing widespread attention.
"Latest News: Three Towns Alliance Army Aimed at Deserted Valley Town!"
"Alien Race Alliance Army Aggressive, Humanity’s Spirit Realm Frontline Faces Challenge!"
"Unprecedented Scale! Alien Race Alliance Army Exceeds Seven Thousand! Spirit Realm Frontline to Live Stream!"
"Can Hua Country’s famous expert Boss Hang’s Deserted Valley Town withstand this pressure? Tonight at nine, three Spirit Realm experts online to analyze for you."
"Shocking: Boss Hang’s layout in Deserted Valley Town leaked out..."
......
Hang Yu knew this matter would attract attention in the real world.
He didn’t expect the moment the news reached Deserted Valley Town, it quickly spread in the real world, causing an explosion within hours.
This was bigger than any buzz during the old times when popular fresh celebrities announced new romances, sparking a frenzy of discussions among people, once causing network server crashes due to Enchantment Enhancement.
Hang Yu sat on his couch at home, browsing the tablet, watching the news, and seeing netizens discussing and experts flaunting, laughing: "I really didn’t expect, I, Hang, would have a day of having Melo-like popularity and topic exposure."
Er Gou sitting beside him was also browsing the tablet, proudly saying: "Awoo, boss, that’s certain, even I have over ten million fans on Zhalang, now I’m also a super influencer dog that commands responses. I dare say if boss exposes your identity, you’d absolutely become a traffic superstar in the new era within minutes."
"Hehe, it’s pretty good as it is; doesn’t everyone say I am Huaxia’s top unofficial expert? Being cool is a basic self-cultivation for an expert. Running to Zhalang to show off would only make me the same level as you, this Erha, right?"
Dog eagerly flattered: "Boss is right!"
Hang Xiaobai was indifferent to these.
She quietly watched cartoons.
Su Yunbing returned at this time, seeing Hang Yu sitting on the sofa, still having the mood to brag to his dog, said: "Hey, why are you still at home? There’s news saying the Three Towns Alliance has pushed within fifty miles, it will reach Deserted Valley Town in at most two hours."
"Isn’t there still more than two hours?"
Hang Yu displayed calmness.
Half an hour later.
Hang Yu leisurely finished a dinner.
As he was enjoying a post-meal cup of Spirit Tea.
News came from Spirit Realm, the enemy forces approached Deserted Valley Town, arriving within an hour.
"Almost time, Bai, Dog, let’s go." Hang Yu knew he couldn’t delay further, so he, along with Bai and Dog, prepared to enter the Spirit Realm, "Teacher Su, wait for my good news."
Su Yunbing looked deeply at the relaxed Hang Yu: "I know you always have confidence in your actions, but after this battle, your situation in Earth Dragon Realm will become very delicate, be sure to be careful."
Hang Yu’s expression slightly restrained upon hearing her words.
Yes indeed, the result of this battle can’t be concealed for long.
Lords in Beicang cannot ignore humans, and perhaps the transcending race identity will be revealed. Should human appearances make the lords feel threatened, the upcoming days aiming to develop silently might not be that easy.
Hang Yu’s group had been in Earth Dragon Realm for nearly a month.
This step was inevitably taken!
