Chapter 440 - 200: The Territory’s No. 1 Beauty’s Full Effort_2
It indeed wanted to yank the dragon balls, but not the ones on its back—it’s the ones in front.
Terion gritted his teeth and said, "It somehow found out that Wutong is the Empress, which aroused its lust, wanting to seize her into the cave while her level is still low. When its Dragon Race minions fought us, they shouted to capture the Empress to breed offspring with the Giant Dragon."
"Kill it!" Lin Rui was furious for the first time. He couldn’t even imagine such a thing. That damn Green-haired Dragon is simply asking for death!
The surrounding knights also reddened with anger, shouting furiously: "Kill it!"
"Kill it!"
"We’ll search the mountains and scour the sea to kill this filthy vermin!"
Lin Rui immediately raised his arm and rallied: "Return to the territory, tomorrow fully strengthen the military force, and the day after we’ll swear an oath to attack Bloodbath Mountain and kill this dirty vermin."
Returning with Terion, Lin Rui instructed him, "After expanding the territory’s population tomorrow, tally the number of residents immediately. I want to convert one-tenth of the population into the army."
A ten-to-one military-civilian ratio has happened during the chaotic times on Blue Star.
Although the Golden Pansy Domain is not considered developed, its productivity is slightly above feudal economies. In some places, there are even signs of industrial production.
So the eleven withdrawals can be supported economically by the territory.
Terion was only worried: "Building so many troops—can the Heroic Commander Value cover it?"
Lin Rui calmly replied, "No problem. Leave the expansion of the army to you. Tomorrow, I’ll fully enhance the territory’s Strategic Treasures and Commander Runes, maximizing the Heroic Commander Ability."
After speaking, Lin Rui also worriedly looked at Terion: "You didn’t tell Wutong about this, did you?"
Terion immediately shook his head: "I wouldn’t dare to tell her. I’m afraid if she hears such words, she’d single-handedly slaughter through the entire Bloodbath Mountain. By then, Bloodbath Mountain would be truly covered in blood and flesh. I’m afraid, Lord, before you return to the territory, we’d be forced into a Plane War."
Lin Rui patted his shoulder: "Alright, after you eat, go rest. You’ve worked hard lately. I’m heading to the ruins to clear the demons arriving with the new cycle. Maybe something might just blast fall out as Strategic Treasure."
Terion nodded, indeed feeling quite exhausted lately.
Of course, it’s not just Lin Rui awake in the territory right now. In fact, the numerous construction sites in the territory are brightly lit.
Caroline demonstrated her extraordinary leadership abilities as a top student of a Legendary-level Empire, directing a large number of residents to work in shifts, working tirelessly day and night. The territory’s farmland, housing, miracle buildings, and city walls were rising rapidly with visible progress.
The territory’s armory and blacksmith shops were bustling too, countless artisans were working tirelessly to produce military equipment and arms.
A charming silhouette, carrying a fragrant breeze, stood beside Lin Rui, accompanying him as he looked towards the busy, bustling territory in the distance: "Is everyone working this hard?"
Lin Rui turned to glance at her: "Can we afford not to?"
"But with everyone working so hard, wouldn’t it make me seem lazy?"
"Haven’t you thought that because you’re so lazy, we’re forced to work this hard?"
"Oh, isn’t it tiring to keep track of all that? Wouldn’t it be great if we both just went on a rampage together?"
"Rampage together?" Lin Rui glanced at her: "You’re actually comfortable saying that?"
"What’s wrong with that? I handle the rampage and you handle the slaughter. How reasonable is this division of labor, and how clear the outcome?"
"I really underestimated you. So you are shamelessly bold. Not sure what my wife was thinking, sending me a partner like you as a Goddess Priestess, so full of cheekiness."
Under the firelight, Yuyu’s face was full of proud satisfaction: "Am I not a good Goddess Priestess? I listen to you, the Divine Champion, completely focused on assisting you. Even the Goddess’s Knight Order and Temple Guard Knight are entrusted to you. Where else would you find a Goddess Priestess so understanding, kind-hearted, and wise as me? Let me tell you, other Goddess Priestesses are all little witches, full of schemes. With your unrefined manner that just flares up at the sight of a beauty, wouldn’t they just eat you alive?"
Lin Rui replied irritably: "You know I’m currently not in the best state, yet you stay so close. Can you keep your distance?"
Yuyu lazily pursed her lips, asking: "Initially, I felt a bit ashamed and wanted to help you ease your troubles. If you don’t need it, then never mind."
"Huh? Ease my troubles?" Lin Rui looked at her in surprise, "You?"
"What nonsense. I’m a woman, or am I not beautiful? If you claim I’m not beautiful, then you’re too hypocritical."
"Enough already. You’re a theoretical type, who gets timid when it comes to actual actions."
Yuyu insisted: "I... I’m a priestess. I need to maintain a pure body. What’s the problem?"
"So... haven’t you realized the contradiction in what you’re saying?"
"Oh, I just felt it was not quite right being remote and quiet in that magnificent Goddess Hall watching everyone hustle and bustle. After all, my persona is supposed to fully support your world-class first wife type. If you’re in trouble, I definitely have to help as much as I can. So do you want it or not? If you do, take me to a place just for us. If not, I’ll go back and sleep."
"As much as you can?"
Yuyu took out her mirror, lazily blocked it in front of her: "Fine, all out. But a Goddess Priestess must maintain a Holy Body, there’s a line that cannot be crossed, you understand right?"
Any other day, Lin Rui would absolutely refuse.
But unfortunately, right now he’s weak facing the territory’s number one beauty, a Tier Five Goddess Priestess whose Charm Value is unrivaled, he couldn’t utter a single no.
"Then follow me."
"Hey, slow down, my wrist hurts from your grip. My Tier Five Priestess mainly boosts Charm, not Physique. I can’t keep up, where are you taking me?"
Very soon, Lin Rui arrived at the entrance of the ruins, personally opening the gate and leading Yuyu inside.
"Hey, hey, why are you closing the door? What kind of place is this? You can’t mess around with what we’ve agreed upon."
Lin Rui explained: "Territory ruins, sealing the spatial rift. Unless I personally lead, no one else is allowed in."
Yuyu instantly became excited: "Whoa, you’re really a talent. So every man probably has a devil living inside?"
The Fanatic Commander Warren was slightly surprised to see Lin Rui: "I say, you little fellow are coming earlier with each time. Came at the beginning of the cycle last time, now you came even before the cycle ended?"
Lin Rui calmly said: "The cycle is about to end. I’ll go ahead to the third floor and block them at the stairwell."
Warren nodded in agreement, feeling it reasonable, just curiously asked: "Just the two of you? Although you’re both epic-level, you might still get a bit exhausted, right?"
Lin Rui waved his hand, summoning the Heart of the Water Element: Glory Guard Champion Aolang.
Tier Four, epic-level melee soldier.
As Lin Rui’s Soul Sum Attribute Value enhanced comprehensively, the Water Elemental Warrior finally achieved a qualitative ascendancy, now reaching epic-level.
He is the main force in today’s clearing the ruins and slaying demons.
"Not bad, an indefatigable melee soldier, adding you both, a mage and a priestess, it really saves a lot of trouble."
Yuyu kept her head down, not replying, and after Lin Rui entered the palace, she followed from behind. Turning repeatedly, she got dizzy.
"Hey? What? Arrived at the third floor so soon? Isn’t this place supposed to be a maze? My clothes are expensive, be gentle, don’t rush!"
"Why do you have so many demands? Fine, I’ll accommodate you all, but what we agreed upon, you can’t mess it up."
