Chapter 590: Special Mission
Having sent off Black Hawk Hulk, in the interval of waiting for the Nine-Star Council to issue the task, Li Wei also couldn't help but review again what he had gained over the past eighty years.
Up until now, he already had five sons, four daughters, eight grandsons, and six maternal grandsons. The family was prospering, Flourishing Lineage, and quite lively. He was just short of Awakening an Abundant Offspring system.
Of course, in reality, the profits were also not small. His current Collective Sanity was 48 points. Within this, the abilities, qualities, and various other comprehensive factors of his descendants had a very large relationship.
This book is first published across the entire network by ๐ฅ๐จ๐๐๐.๐๐ ๐.
For example, his Primary Grandson Li Yuan alone brought +2 Sanity to Li Wei, second only to the effect of his first two children being born.
After all, this was equivalent to the peaceful connecting link between two great families and two great factions. A true connecting link brought about through a Matrimonial Alliance of bloodlines; its significance was extraordinary.
The growth and spreading of his descendants was one aspect, and the might of the Legions was another aspect.
Although eighty years ago, through 2% of the Magic Seal's Founding Shares, Li Wei reached a cooperation with Karl, handing over the four hundred thousand Commoners under his command to ensure government decrees flowed unimpeded, the Magic Web was connected, and standards were unified. At that time, only over thirty thousand core members remained under his command.
But through eighty years of development, these over thirty thousand core members had nowadays expanded back to one hundred thousand people, and this was even after eliminating a portion of mediocre individuals.
Currently, the total troop strength of the Blazing Legion had already reached three thousand people, with all personnel being Tier-3 Dark Moon Knights.Yes, those previous eight hundred Blazing Veterans actually all possessed the strength to promote to the Fourth Tier at any time, but Li Wei didn't let them advance. Instead, he let them polish their combat Experience and Destiny Grids as much as possible. By continuously going to complete Pioneering Missions and Cross-Border Missions, they elevated the prefixes of their Combat Cards.
In a word, you don't even have the Radiant prefix, what Fourth Tier are you promoting to?
Once promoted to the Fourth Tier, they would have to accept tasks from the Nine-Star Council, and if they went, they extremely likely wouldn't be able to return.
Of course, this sentence definitely couldn't be said aloud.
Not only the Blazing Legion, but the total troop strength of the Ice Legion currently had already increased to twenty thousand people. With eighty years of time, carefully selecting was also enough. Moreover, these recruits weren't only selected internally; external selection was also permissible.
Similarly, the Ice Legion was also suppressed at the 3rd-Tier Master level.
Asu's Ranger Legion stabilized at one thousand people.
And Li Wei's Royal Guards had expanded to one thousand people. All of them were suppressed at the Third-Circle, absolutely not Upgrading until reaching Radiant.
This was the twenty-five thousand people of Li Wei's Legions.
The total number looked small, but actually no one dared to underestimate them.
Even if the Fourth Tiers on Li Wei's side were very few, just being Hathaway, Li Yue, Second Aunt, Zhao Xuanxuan, Thomas, He Yibo, A Su, and Tucker, those few people.
But at any time, they could be pulled out to fight tough battles at a moment's notice.
It was a pity that for the Nine-Star Council's task, there was no way to bring so many Legions.
And Li Wei himself hadn't relaxed during these eighty years either. Nowadays, his Farmer Destiny had successfully reached 140, Hunter Fate 150, Woodcutter Fate 150, Scout Destiny 150, Druid Destiny 80, and Mountain Dweller Fate 80.
Among these, the two Profession Cards of Druid and Mountain Dweller had both completed Triple Rarity Enhancement.
The first core Farmer Card and second core Scout Card were already completely formed. Full Fate Resonance no longer had any pressure.
As for Perception, it was normally +36, with the Ranger Title +4, for a total Perception of 40. If he used Activate Anti-Magic Perception, he could maintain 50 points for five seconds. Coordinated with Full Fate Resonance, as well as the Seven-Star Holy Ranger Bow and ten Origin Arrows... mm, he indeed was already able to insta-kill Black Hawk Hulk in the majority of situations. As long as he dared to step out of the Mage Tower, as long as he wasn't under the protection of a powerful frontline, or wasn't in the midst of a grand army.
Besides this, his current Druid Transformation had also been vastly strengthened.
He could Shapeshift into a Level 7 Sky Eagle, Level 7 Aquatic Fish, Level 7 Forest Wolf, Level 7.6 Earth Great Bear, Level 7.6 Blood Plague Rat, and Level 7.6 Wilderness Hound.
Plus a Six-Star Adai, this Comprehensive Strength had actually already caught up to and surpassed Alowell and Roger.
The reason lay in that their Profession Cards only had a few Triple Rare Enhancements, and additionally it was also related to whether they could achieve Full Fate Resonance.
This wasn't something that could be resolved just by smashing however many Resources into it.
Right while he was pondering, a few lines of information silently floated up.
[You have already satisfied all conditions. The Nine-Star Council will formally issue the Chaotic Realm task to you. Please make preparations within three days, or you can choose to consume one Eight-star Golden Card to exempt yourself from this task.]
[Friendly reminder: the task requires heading to the Chaotic Realm. Therefore, it requires possessing at least 40 points of Collective Sanity, and must be Fourth-Tier Aurora, with a Comprehensive Strength score greater than 1000. Your current Collective Sanity is 48 points, Combat Card is Fourth-Tier Radiant Ranger, and Comprehensive Strength score is 2018.]
[Friendly reminder: enemies or unknown existences of the Fifth-tier Epic level, or possibly briefly the Tier-6 Immortal level, may appear within the task area you will head to. Once the latter appears, please immediately distance yourself and delay for time as much as possible. The Nine-Star Council will dispatch Immortal-level Class Holders to head over and intervene, but this basically means task failure.]
[Friendly reminder: this task does not have a clear main storyline; everything depends on your own performance. But specifically speaking, you still need to achieve the following three objectives within the scope of your abilities. If you cannot achieve them, there is no harm either.]
[1. Explore a piece of the Chaotic Realm and draw a biological map. If you can infiltrate a chaotic native tribe, that is best, but not forced. Chaotic natives are very difficult to deal with.]
[2. Explore a piece of the Chaotic Realm and build a safehouse. Note: so-called safety is not a single room, but a functional safe environment that can receive subsequent allied forces and provide them with an anchor point.]
[3. Collect a sufficient amount of chaotic Source Ore, and then safely return.]
[Friendly reminder: regardless of whether you complete the above three objectives or not, as long as you can safely return, you can obtain a basic reward. Your Territory or your Kingdom/Empire can obtain 100,000 population. If you can slightly complete a portion of the tasks, the rewards will also increase accordingly.]
[One teammate has already been preliminarily matched for you. Your true identities will be strictly kept secretโโโโ]
[Your matched teammate has chosen to be exempted from this task. You can continue waiting for a match, or form a team yourself. Once fully staffed with five people, you can set off.]
Looking at this information, Li Wei's heart was beating like a drum. It seemed the previous tragic death of Karl's five-person squad made many Multiverse Lords choose to temporarily avoid risks ah.
Then he naturally wouldn't be Thick-headed at this time, definitely feeling he was an exception, right?
Thus, Li Wei also without hesitation consumed an Eight-star Golden Card to exempt himself from this task.
The next second, his task countdown became 100 years. Mm, this was pretty good.
But then he seemed to sense something. He saw that in the air in front of him, a burst of magical ripples fluctuated, and an elderly man with an appearance of Majesty appeared out of thin air.
This person looked somewhat like Karl, but very old, so old it was unrecognizable, as if a large tree.
So almost immediately, Li Wei guessed the other party's identity and their purpose for coming.
Old Vere, nowadays a Councilor of the Nine-Star Council, Tier-6 Immortal. This old fellow didn't want to find him privately, wanting to save back Karl's Soul, right?
"Li Wei, I have not come for private matters, but under special assignment. After all, at this moment in time, you ought to trust me." The moment Old Vere opened his mouth, the four walls of the room were shrouded by dense green leaves.
"Long story short. Recently, the Alliance of Heavenly Lords has suffered the joint suppression and siege of several other organizations. The losses are a bit heavy. Many backbone Fifth-tier Multiverse Lords have suffered a tragic fate; their Souls were enslaved, their secrets stolen. This has left everyone in our Alliance of Heavenly Lords feeling endangered."
"Under this kind of situation, if we still adopt the previous task mode, I'm afraid we'll be sniped even more severely."
"Therefore, we must adopt a one-to-one receiving mode. Although this is a bit more cumbersome, the advantage is in safety. Remember, Li Wei, from now on I am your superior. Besides me, you can ignore all other members of the Nine-Star Council."
Speaking up to here, Old Vere directly took out a unique Item Card and tapped it against the center of Li Wei's brow. Li Wei immediately saw a mysterious Illusion he had already seen many times: that was the Deepest Heavens. Amidst countless stars, there was a magnificent mysterious structure resembling The Great Wall.
"What is this?"
"This isn't anything concrete, but a kind of Supreme Arcane Key of the Alliance of Heavenly Lords, used for verifying our own people. I cannot say more specifically. I can only say that I have come to find you, hoping you accept this task. You are currently a Tier 4 Legend; your realm level is low enough, but your foundation is very abundant, and your Comprehensive Strength is also extremely strong. Moreover, you yourself are a Ranger Druid. Therefore, naturally your adaptability is stronger than others. Perhaps you can assist us in opening up this situation."
"Specifically speaking, we are preparing to launch a counterattack. The Nine-Star Council and the Five Great Empires are expected to assemble a grand army of thirty million to launch a forceful expedition and take back the initiative. But this requires many, many pieces of intelligence as support, and also requires some sufficiently concealed and safe Outpost Safehouses as teleportation anchor points. Otherwise, even teleportation arrays cannot be built, and the entire counter-offensive will be out of the question. And you, what you need to be responsible for is establishing a sufficiently concealed and safe Outpost Safehouse."
"For this task, you cannot refuse; you must accept. Because the Alliance of Heavenly Lords has already encountered the greatest crisis in its history. Once unable to overcome it, we will be forced to retreat. At that time, including your small Territory, and the Ascension Continents of many kingdoms and Empires, will all fall! No one will be spared; no one can Remaining Detached!"
Old Vere spoke very seriously, and also very gravely. Could it not be grave? Karl and his four Fifth-tier Epics suffered direct Total Annihilation. This was already an extremely severe incident. Were there many Fifth-tier Epics in the Alliance of Heavenly Lords?
Even if there were many, this wasn't how they should be consumed ah.
"Fine, I understand. Who will form a team with me?"
"No, no one will form a team with you. In the opening stage, you will only have yourself. This is the most difficult, but also the safest, because right now no one knows exactly how many secrets the enemy has stolen from us."
"Additionally, also to avoid risks to the greatest extent, you will adopt a special teleportation Passage. That is to say, after teleporting over, even we won't know exactly where you are located or exactly what the situation is. The Nine-Star Council will proactively sever any connection with you. The only one you can rely on is yourself."
Having finished speaking, Old Vere directly took out another special Item Card. Scanning it against Li Wei, an identical Li Wei was conjured.
"This conjured Item Card can be maintained for thirty years' time. You absolutely must return within thirty years. Good luck to you!"
"Also, do not say goodbye to anyone, including your wife and children. This concerns your own little life. If you agree, leave right now."
