Chapter 534: Chapter 341: The Legend of Dead Bone, The Mysterious Merchant Returns (5.8K)
Mu Yuan could certainly wait, but during this period of territorial promotion, he stood to gain the most.
If he waited for the territory to naturally grow to meet the requirements, either Lu Liu and his generals would already be legends, and a little baptism wouldn't matter; or the grass on the graves of Tianyuan Territory would be overgrown.
As long as Isloa, Lu Liu, and the other generals all became legends, he would have the power to push through Fang of the Jackal Wolf, and even confront the many Monster Overlords in the vicinity single-handedly.
Even if, taking a step back, Lu Liu and the others were not timely enough to become legends, having already reached the Fourth-order Peak, they also possessed the strength to barely contend with ordinary legends.
After all, Duo Lai was just one person.
If he were Fang of the Jackal Wolf, he would definitely find a way to tie Duo Lai down, then crush the enemy from other aspects. The more generals able to shoulder the burden at this time, the more confident he would be in his Tianyuan Territory.
Time slowly passed, seemingly quick yet slow.
A month had passed since the Battle of Wolf Head Mountain.
Mu Yuan was flipping through the battle reports.
"Eleven days ago, the third Exploratory Team encountered a Jackal Man Legend, and it was lucky that the general leading the team was Lu Liu. Lu Liu rallied hundreds of elites, resonated with the incomplete Army Spirit, and sustained for a while under the hands of the legend. Seeing that they could not defeat the Exploratory Team, the Jackal Man Legend withdrew on his own."
"Nine days ago, the fourth Exploratory Team encountered a large number of Fang of the Jackal Wolf's monsters surrounding them, among them several large flesh conglomerates. Thanks to Black Crow's reconnaissance, the fourth Exploratory Team joined forces with Uta, Xi Liu, and other powerhouses, to counter and kill Fang of the Jackal Wolf's minions."
"At the time, Duo Lai was lurking nearby, unfortunately, the Jackal Man Legend did not make an appearance."
"Six days ago, Legendary Elf Milena encountered a Jackal Man Legend, Milena was defeated by the wand of Jackalwolf the Legendary, but encountered an ambush while pursuing and suffered severe injuries." Your source for fiction: m-vlempyr.
"Three days ago, movements from Blood Snake Encase were reported from the south; Wolf Head Mountain, surrounding the territory, patrolling squads encountered Snake man powerhouses several times."
The actions of Blood Snake Encase were becoming increasingly evident.
This was what Mu Yuan had always been worried about.
The location of Tianyuan Territory, situated in the cracks between Fang of the Jackal Wolf and Blood Snake Encase, was closer to Fang of the Jackal Wolf.
But with the destruction of several large tribes near Fang of the Jackal Wolf and the establishment of Wolf Head Mountain Fortress, Tianyuan Territory had developed a certain strategic depth facing Fang of the Jackal Wolf, and the possibility of exposure was not high.
However, Blood Snake Encase was to the south of Tianyuan, and the nearest large tribe was only a little over two hundred kilometers away from the territory, practically a neighbor.
Once Blood Snake Encase made a move, Tianyuan would become very passive.
"However, this is also within the contingency plan," he mused.
Blood Snake Encase and Fang of the Jackal Wolf, both Monster Overlords pursuing the path of eternal flesh, would collaborate, which wasn't too surprising.
As beings, they would inevitably clash with the various Overlord Powers surrounding them.
It was inevitable.
However, they were still weak at the moment, and the fact that Fang of the Jackal Wolf allowed Blood Snake Encase to step into their "territory" so early did surprise Mu Yuan somewhat.
"Activate contingency plan B-12."
"Next, we need to establish a mining base at the Soul Sand vein to the south, and use this base as the center to sniper Blood Snake Encase's minions."
This Soul Sand vein was only a little over a hundred kilometers away from the territory.
Previously, Mu Yuan had not exploited it and even used some methods to hide the parts of the vein that were exposed on the surface.
But now, since Blood Snake Encase began to bare its fangs, using this vein would naturally conceal the territory further back, creating more strategic depth for himself.
The plan was approved.
Although as enemies continued to probe, it was only a matter of time before the main territory would be exposed.
Mu Yuan went to the Secret Realm to issue a purchase commission for "Lookout Tower Blueprints."
"High-quality lookout towers might be hard to find in a short period of time, but ordinary lookout tower blueprints are just Rare Level, and should not be too difficult to procure."
Naturally, Mu Yuan also posted a commission to purchase "Thunder Magnetic Coil Towers."
He had already posted this commission earlier, indicating that he could offer Remnant Souls of Excellence and High-order treasures as compensation. His payment was quite generous indeed, and the various types of Remnant Souls of Excellence would meet the exchange needs of most sellers, but no goods meant no goods.
There were, however, no shortage of Lords who privately messaged him wanting to purchase Remnant Souls of Excellence.
Two days later.
"The Soul Sand Mine base has been established; including: Lookout Towers × 2, Thunder Magnetic Coil Towers × 10, Sniper Watchtowers × 10, and several Arrow Towers."
Two more days passed.
"Bone Four led the full Dead Bone Corps to confront the Jackal Man Legend and Snake Man Legend that suddenly attacked near the Soul Sand vein. With the power of a complete Army Spirit, the Corps withstood the pressure of the two legends. The Jackal Man Legend and Snake Man Legend only probed a few moves before vanishing into the vast wilderness."
"Indeed, this human power still possesses the means to confront legends, but that's all there is," remarked a Jackal Man strategist.
Elves and Giants also heard of this battle.
"Humans seem to really lack a second legend," they commented.
They were not surprised that Tianyuan Territory still had means to confront legends; however, they thought Lord Tianyuan was a legend. Now it seemed that might not be the case.
They too hoped that Tianyuan Territory possessed more legends. Even if they were just ordinary, newly breakthrough legends, one more could relieve a lot of pressure.
At this very moment, in Tianyuan Territory.
Within the Excellence structure of Ice Heart Lotus Platform, Dead Bone stood alone.
