[Your subject, Wu Tu's loyalty has increased to 87!]
Zhou Zhou, who was walking on the road, suddenly saw this notification.
He winced then smiled.
…
Half an hour later, the soldiers were done resting.
Zhou Zhou gathered Lu Chong and Huang Sai. Then, they headed to the monster ranch together.
"Unbelievable! I'm sure even Bai Yung wouldn't recognize this place," Huang Sai exclaimed.
He and the other soldiers were already informed by Bai Yung about the use of the monster ranch.
"I see advanced grade desert fog lizards, so many of them," Lu Chong muttered.
…
What surprised Lu Chong and Huang Sai the most was that they were no longer as fierce as before.
These desert fog lizards were either crawling slowly or lazing around like domesticated livestock.
"Sir Mu is really amazing. I can't believe he made them so docile." Huang Sai said in surprise.
Zhou Zhou was already aware of Mu Gu's ability, so his expression did not change.
"My lord." Mu Gu walked out of the ranch and said respectfully.
"How was the result from last night?" Zhou Zhou asked.
"It's been a normal night. There are a total of 500 desert fog lizards."
"Among them are 256 black iron-tier elementary grade desert fog lizards, 220 black iron-tier intermediate grade desert fog lizards, and 24 black iron-tier advance grade desert fog lizards!"
"It's a pity that the monster ranch hasn't reached the Green bronze-tier yet. Otherwise, I can create a Green bronze-tier elementary grade desert fog lizard or even a Green bronze-tier intermediate grade desert fog lizard!"
Mu Gu said.
Zhou Zhou's eyes flashed with excitement.
This was not just 500 desert fog lizards.
In his eyes, these were clearly promotion energy for his soldiers, 244 sword shield soldier that would be executed for the greater good and training partners for the evolution of his soldiers.
He did not care about what Mu Gu said after that.
The ranch would level up sooner or later.
"Mu Gu, release them from their docile state. The soldiers will take care of the rest."
"My lord, the 2 of them can't possibly handle 500 desert fog lizards, right? They might get killed," Mu Gu tried to persuade Zhou Zhou.
"They'll face worse in a few hours. Let them experience a hint of what is to come." Zhou Zhou said.
"... Understood," Mu Gu gave in to Zhou Zhou.
Releasing the fog lizards from their docile state, he gave the signal for Lu Chong and Huang Sai to step in.
Remembering the beat down they experienced yesterday, Lu Chong and Huang Sai walked into the ranch containing the 500 desert fog lizards without any hesitation.
Watching the 2 soldiers battle against the 500 desert fog lizards, Zhou Zhou smiled as he saw the result of their training yesterday.
'They're in sync with each other. Lu Chong focuses on defense and controlling the flow of the battle, while Huang Sai deals specifically on attacking.'
'Although, they aren't at the point I envisioned for each of my soldiers, they aren't far off.'
"Brilliant!" Mu Gu blurted as he watched the incredible partnership between the 2 soldiers.
Time passed slowly.
Using the head, the shaft and the bottom of his spear to block, deflect and draw in the desert fog lizards, Lu Chong remembered the brutal suffering he had to undergo yesterday as he tried to block faster, deflect swiftly, draw in nimbly, and even strike instantaneously.
Whoosh!!
A desert fog lizard dropped dead in its track without any arrow hanging on any part of its body.
'I did it!' a smile hung on Lu Chong's face as his spear moved way faster than ever before, reaping the lives of the surrounding desert fog lizards before Huang Sai's arrow could even approach them.
Shocked from the result of the battle, Huang Sai couldn't believe he was struggling to keep up with Lu Chong's kills.
'How did he become so strong? He's even still defending and controlling the battle!'
"He's so powerful!" Mu Gu was shocked as he witnessed the massacre being displayed before him.
Eyes and mouth wide open, Zhou Zhou couldn't believe the scene in front of him.
'This is it! This is what a one man army looks like! My dream is achievable!'
He laughed as the desert fog lizards began reducing at an insane rate until only the advance grade green bronze-tier desert fog lizard was left inside the fence.
"My lord!" Lu Chong and Huang Sai bowed after coming out of the fence.
"That was impressive. The both of you were perfectly in sync with each other."
"And you, Lu Chong, you demonstrated a skill never seen before! What skill is that?"
Zhou Zhou praised both soldiers before questioning Lu Chong.
"It's the intermediate-tier of my formation spear technique and my close combat technique," Lu Chong answered.
"An upgrade of 2 tiers. That's amazing!" Zhou Zhou was amazed after hearing the tier of Lu Chong skills.
As a soldier type life form, he was the one with the highest skill tier in Blazing Sun City.
He could battle Bai Yung or Hui Teng with just his Green bronze-tier advance grade and will not end up losing.
"I will remember your contribution," Zhou Zhou said.
"Thank you, my Lord," Lu Chong said before putting out his wish.
[Lord Hint: Your subject, Lu Chong, wishes to share his entire knowledge and experience with you.]
[Requirement: A loyalty of 95 (Requirement Met)]
[Do you want to accept?]
Seeing the notifications, Zhou Zhou glanced at Lu Chong in surprise.
He hadn't even asked him.
"My Lord has been rewarding me since the moment I arrived. This is the least I can do," Lu Chong said after seeing Zhou Zhou looking at him.
"Thank you," Zhou Zhou said to Lu Chong with a smile.
'Yes,' he answered the notification.
A moment later, streams of information and knowledge integrated into his brain, muscles and soul.
Opening his skill stats, he saw the following.
[Skills: Green bronze-tier intermediate grade formation spear technique (intermediate-tier). Green bronze-tier elementary grade spear toss (basic-tier). Green bronze-tier advance grade close combat technique (intermediate-tier), mental manipulation, mental perception, sand trap technique, sand stealth]
'They're each as good as they can get,' Zhou Zhou thought.
"Teach Bai Yung your skills," he said to Lu Chong.
"Yes, my Lord," Lu Chong said.
Turning to Huang Sai, Zhou Zhou said, "don't fall back."
"I won't, my lord!" Huang Sai uttered. He was pumped and ready to do better.
As a beginner class soldier, he was just a tier away from the intermediate class.
If Lu Chong can do, so can I.
After the ruthless massacre, the genius, Lu Chong, advanced to the White silver-tier elementary grade while Huang Sai remained short of a few promotion energies to attain the advance grade of green bronze-tier.
"The both of you can leave," Zhou Zhou to the soldiers as he prepared to retrieve the loots, "Huang Sai, come to the gate of summoning an hour from now."
"Yes, my lord," Lu Chong and Huang Sai bowed before leaving.
An hour later, Zhou Zhou counted his loots.
500 sword shield soldier class change certificates and 244 sword shield soldier recruitment books had been obtained!
There were also 1,584 black iron-tier mist cores!
16,320 units of flesh (black iron-tier elementary, intermediate and advance grade)!
A total of 1,156kg of water bags!
24 black iron-tier advance grade sand stealth technique!
Storing them in his spatial ring, he got up before heading towards the gate of summoning.
"My lord!" having arrived 3 minutes ago, Huang Sai bowed.
"You look nervous," Zhou Zhou said as Huang Sai straightened up.
"Scared you alone would deal with the entire 401 black-tailed fog scorpions?"
"A bit, my lord. I'm certain that I will die if I go into battle alone today," Huang Sai responded.
"Don't worry; I won't let you die yet!" Zhou Zhou said before throwing the 244 sword shield soldier recruitment books into the white portal.
"I will be going into battle with you!"
