Chapter 306: Reducing Manpower

Almost at the same time, the foreign forces that had suffered significant losses in the Frost Purgatory Uncharted Realm began to mobilize their elites and enter the uncharted realm once more, preparing to join forces to annihilate the Lord of Dawn, Li Xiang.

The reason why those forces were so active was not only because of their righteous indignation. The real reason was that Li Xiang had obtained too many treasures and resources during that mission, and they were all top-rank precious resources, things that could only be encountered but not sought.

If they could kill Li Xiang, those resources would be theirs!

Therefore, under the temptation of those treasures, those foreign factions were exceptionally united and fast this time. They gathered the most elite troops, equipped them with the best equipment and medicines, and once again poured into the Frost Purgatory.

After all, besides Li Xiang, there were two more stages of group missions in the uncharted realm. The rewards would only be better.

The eyes of those factions that had not discovered the entrance to the uncharted realm turned red. However, they had no choice but to watch others make a fortune.

Li Xiang did not know what was happening on the World Channel. Even if he knew, he would not care.

However, even if he did not care, it did not mean Yang Mi and the others did not care.

The five of them placed great importance on the possibility of those foreign factions coming to encircle and annihilate them. They quickly sorted out the information of the participants and handed it over to Li Xiang.

“These enemies cannot be underestimated. They didn’t know our strengths before and weren’t prepared. That’s why we were able to kill them easily. Now that I think about it, these people must be well prepared now since they dare to make a move!”

Li Xiang nodded and said, “Alright, I got it!”

Yang Mi asked, “Then should we also mobilize another army from the country?”

Li Xiang only pondered for a moment before shaking his head and saying, “No need! The terrain and environment here are special. No matter how many people there are, we won’t be able to display our advantage. Instead, it will make the team even greater, make the target bigger, and affect our movement speed! I even feel that 3,000 people is a little too much now. It would be even easier if there were only 300 people.”

“Uh-”

Yang Mi and the others were speechless. On the other hand, Ye Xi and the others expressed their approval of Li Xiang’s thoughts.

Although 3,000 people might not seem like a lot, it was impossible to spread out in an underground cave like this. Instead, it would slow down their movement speed and make themselves a bigger target, making it easier for the enemy to catch them.

So, when he thought of that, Li Xiang suddenly raised his head and said, “Sister Mi, you should bring some of them back! The ensuing battle will become even more dangerous. If I can’t take care of you guys for a moment and you get hurt, I’ll regret it!”

Yang Mi was only stunned for a moment, then she nodded straightforwardly and said, “Alright! Then how many people should I bring back?”

Li Xiang smiled and said, “Bring 2,000 people back! I’ll leave 1,000 people here. With the help of Ye Xi and the others, we’ll be able to move quickly.”

The other women looked unwilling but understood that was the best choice. If they stayed, they would only become a burden and drag them down, bringing even greater danger.

When he first came in, Li Xiang only wanted to explore the situation. Who would have thought he would start the mission directly in the end?

“Then how about this, the heroes of the five of us will stay. There won’t be any danger in the country anyway. Their combat strength is excellent. They won’t be a burden and can also provide good combat strength!”

Li Xiang knew he couldn’t refuse Yang Mi’s suggestion, so he didn’t hesitate and said straightforwardly, “Alright! Then let’s not waste time. I’ll bring some people to escort you back first, and then we’ll finish the mission!”

After the matter was settled, everyone immediately began to move.

The passage to the uncharted realm had always been opened, and the other forces were constantly sending more troops into the uncharted realm. Only Li Xiang’s side had started to reduce the army’s size from the original 3,000 people to 1,000 people.

Those 1,000 people were naturally the cream of the crop, and their strength and levels were the best of the 3,000 people.

Then, Li Xiang distributed the equipment and resources he had obtained from the mission. Although he could not guarantee that every one of his subordinates would be fully equipped with S-Rank equipment, they would be equipped with at least one S-Rank equipment. With the addition of all sorts of top-rank potions, the strength of the remaining 1,000 people instantly increased exponentially.

Apart from that, Li Xiang distributed the top-rank equipment to a type of hero subordinate. It was almost guaranteed that everyone would have a piece of Mythical equipment.

On the other hand, Li Xiang was in a bit of a dilemma when it came to the 500 Angel Warriors.

That was because although those 500 Angels looked like Angels, they were all Angels from different worlds. The power systems they used were all different. There were even Angels from the Technological World who used their super genes to achieve eternal life. Their combat power was extremely powerful.

However, it was naturally much more difficult to find equipment that could satisfy all the Angel warriors.

Fortunately, as the only divine grade Angel, Ye Xi could command and manage, so nothing went wrong. In fact, the strength of those Angel ladies had increased to varying degrees.

There was one thing that had to be said. All the Angels that Li Xiang, the Lord of Dawn, had recruited were female. There wasn’t a single male Angel.

And as far as he knew, the Angel race in the opposing faction, the Alliance of Gods, was mainly male Angels. They were cruel and warlike and even had the gay culture trending internally. They were also considered a top-rank faction in the Myriad World Continent.

After sending Yang Mi and the others back to the Kingdom of Dawn, Li Xiang strengthened his subordinates, instantly increasing the strength of the entire team by several times.

Ye Xi and the other heroes also significantly increased their strength during that quest and battle.

Ye Xi’s level had already reached Rank 192. Compared to when she had just been recruited, when Li Xiang had used up all his EXP to level her up to Rank 150, she had leveled up a total of 42 levels. The EXP represented by those 42 levels was ten times more than the first 150 levels. From that, it could be seen just how much EXP she had received during that quest.

After all, with the Triple EXP Halo buff, the EXP gained naturally soared.

On the other hand, Alice and the other heroes had officially leveled up to Rank 200. Their strength and levels had soared, and the system had confirmed that they had reached the divine grade.

The quality of a hero represented their potential. After reaching the divine grade, that influence began to diminish.

Although they were still no match for Ye Xi in a one-on-one fight, the three of them would be able to contend against Ye Xi at her full strength if they worked together.

Of course, that was also because their strength was stronger than the heroes from other factions. That was why they were able to do so.

With Ye Xi’s current strength and equipment, she could easily fight against five to eight common divine grade powerhouses.

And with Li Xiang’s halo skills, even if more than ten common divine grade powerhouses attacked her together, they would not be able to pose any threat to her.

Finally, Li Xiang began to increase his strength.

The Rank 150 that he had maintained all this while was actually still alright up until now. However, the enemies that he was facing were getting stronger and stronger, and there were more and more of them. He could no longer rely on his low level to accumulate EXP.
