My military branches can Evolve Infinitely

"The enemy has significant control over intelligence concerning our forces,"

"Duo Lai, Uta, Lu Liu... especially Duo Lai, the enemy is on guard against them."

They could slay these few legends, partly by surprise.

Xi Liu's Red Dragon's True Flame, Jun's Sigh of the Wind God, both had a formidable initial killing effect.

Secondly, they relied on the power of Isloa.

Isloa did not leave her abode, but the power of Destiny Star Weaving kept working, interfering.

Uta could support Jun in time because Isloa, by chance, grasped a thread of opportunity from the Netherworld.

However, such threads of destiny are hard to seize, almost left to chance.

One or two legends acting in the current Ten Directions Island Domain would be inconspicuous, their destinies not evident;

When a dozen or more legends act, the enemy would use some means to conceal it, rendering their destinies indistinct as well.

Now, as the situation grows increasingly turbulent, wars erupt, and heaven and earth are thrown into disorder, even the threads of destiny become tangled.

Under these conditions, it is not easy for Isloa to grab hold of these opportunities.

Nevertheless, she still made some simple interventions.

For example, she slightly altered the destiny of one legend, leading the monstrous legend to be a bit more complacent, lingering longer than it should have.

And so, the monster legend was caught by Duo Lai.

With such coordination, Tianyuan City had already slain seven monster legends and severely wounded or dealt heavy blows to six others.

The Natural Garden and the Giant Stone Ridge also had their skirmishes with monster legends, but nothing as intense as here at Tianyuan City.

In the mining zone under Tianyuan City's jurisdiction, a mining area overseen by the Featherman nation suffered tragically, sustaining heavy losses from the enemy's main forces.

Even though Duo Lai was there and killed two legends.

"We at Tianyuan City have also suffered losses, with even a dozen or two dozen fourth-orders falling in battles against legends..."

Even excluding the factor of the Hall of Martial Souls, just by visible losses, Tianyuan City's losses are far less than those of the Orochi and the Black Crow Clan.

The Monster Overlord indeed likes to sacrifice pawns, but legends aren't included in this exchange.

Outside of the Red Fog Disaster Moon, monster legends aren't so bold.

"Even so, the attacks from the Orochi and the Black Crow Clan have not ceased; they must still have some basis for their confidence,"

"Is it the Great Blood Tree Forest to the west? No, unlikely."

"The Great Blood Tree Forest could be one of the tactics, but it's definitely not the key dependence."

Considering this, Mu Yuan ordered the mining zones to fall back.

Even if he were confident enough in certain moments, he must shrink the defenses; otherwise, losses could multiply tenfold.

This Monster Overlord is impeding his wealth-making!

This grudge, Mr. Mu is taking note of.

However, he did not give up on all mining zones.

If they totally retracted to Tianyuan City, they would lose all their 'fixed position' outposts in the wild, significantly reducing their strategic depth.

Some mining zones, when retracted to Tianyuan City, were also too far away and inconvenient to reach.

Therefore, Mu Yuan kept the third mining zone, where Duo Lai was in charge and could rush to support other areas as needed.

Meanwhile, at the same time. Explore stories on empire

In the core area of the Orochi Clan, before the Orochi God Statues.

The statues nearly came to life, their large and small serpentine eyes radiating a cold light.

Suddenly, a chilling light surged within the entire Orochi Clan, eerie and foreboding.

"How are things progressing?"

Lord Orochi spoke up, his raspy voice reverberating through heaven and earth.

The High Priest respectfully said, "Lord Orochi, we have pressured the humans into retracting their defenses, which gives us more opportunities to make a move and strike directly at the heart of Tianyuan City."

"During this process, our followers also slew many strong warriors of the human city, some even having a legendary standing. Rounding up, it's as if we've slain a dozen human legends!"

He was quite pleased with this result.

Before the battle began, he never imagined that humanity of Tianyuan had so many genius legends.

If humans were given another year or two, what would become of them?

They struck just at the right moment!

Tianyuan City was foolish to place such geniuses at the very front; he had always heard that beings kept their geniuses safe in the rear.

Even more foolish were those genius legends with their unmatched bravery, fearlessly confronting their own legendary realm.

If not for this, they could not have achieved such significant victories in such a short time.

Seven legends from the Orochi and the Black Crow Clan traded for a dozen human legends, was it worth it? It was indeed worthwhile.

The High Priest was content but did not receive the affirmation he expected from his lord.

What he got was merely a rather dissatisfied snort.

"That's it? Just this?"

"Seven legends fell, yet not even one human legend was slaughtered, utterly useless!"

The High Priest felt aggrieved.

"These human legends... they are rather formidable, each possessing extraordinary abilities. I suspect they are all of the Epic Tier."

"Red Dragon, azure Divine Bird, a robust man ablaze with aura, the Golden Black Armored General, a blue-haired girl,..."

The High Priest reported each one by one, mainly to indicate that it was not that our forces were incompetent, but that the enemy was abnormally powerful.

See, now we must rely on Lord Orochi's power.

In fact, among the strong ones in Tianyuan City, such as the Red Dragon and the Divine Bird, it seems that one or a few are not in the Legendary Realm, but merely at the Fourth-order Limit Great Perfection.

But could he say that? Of course not.

Being killed solo by someone in the Legendary Realm was still acceptable, but being killed solo by a Fourth-order, they would have to endure Lord Orochi's Netherworld Majesty.

In any case, the Red Dragon, the Divine Bird, these strong ones, are all legends.

No matter who asks, they are! Definitely! Legendary!

The High Priest continued, "Although we are indeed at a slight disadvantage in terms of exchange rate, everything is going according to the established plan."

"The advantage is still in our hands."

...

The Tianyuan City Domain.

In the south, within a dense forest.

Duke Gold and his party were moving forward.

"We're close, we're close, I have such an intuition. And look, the further we move in this direction, the fewer the monsters become, indicating that we will soon find the human forces of this island domain."

The captain of the guards said, "What if... what if the direction we're traveling in is actually the Monster Overlord's lair? It's not unheard of that there are fewer monsters near a lair."

Duke Gold: "Can't you say something cheerful?"

Duke Gold traversed mountains and valleys.

He was once an experienced explorer, a Pioneer, with his own set of tracking methods.

His judgment that the human stronghold was in this area was not entirely based on intuition.

He was at least 90% certain.

He climbed a kilometer-high hill and stood on its summit.

The Duke originally wanted to stand aloft and determine the location of the human stronghold through the trends of mountains and rivers and by employing secret arts, but unexpected to him...

The moment he ascended the hill, he saw a city from afar.

A human city.

His eyesight was sharp, and he could see the hustle and bustle of humans within the city, the towering city walls, and countless defensive structures.

Arrow Tower, Multishot Arrow Tower, Thunder Magnetic Coil Tower...

Duke Gold identified each defensive structure.

The quantity was indeed not small; the entire Tianyuan City was already fortified as impregnable as gold.

However...

"It's too small."

"This is just a small city, not even comparable to a district in my Golden City."

"Is this supposed to be Tianyuan City? The Tianyuan City that conducts trade with the Gemstone Duchy? The Tianyuan City that is contending with the Overlord Power?"

Compared to what he had imagined, there was indeed a tiny bit of a difference.

The city was too small.

With just this size, how could it possibly stand against the Monster Overlord?

Suddenly, the captain of the guards' eyes sharpened, his halberd Sweeping in all directions.

Where the halberd passed, leaves fell and shattered, half of which turned into black feathers.

And around them, unbeknownst when, also darkened.

The floating black feathers congealed into figures of Nether Ravens with black feathers and red eyes. The Nether Ravens were enveloped in night forces visible to the naked eye, and an invisible killing intent filled the area.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The captain of the guards and Duke Gold, both legendary figures, perceived some threat from them.

"A legendary Black Crow?"

"No, that's not right, there is no scent of corruption; it's a living being!"

"But who could it be?"

The night was like a spider's web, and the red eyes of the black crows gleamed intermittently, staring intently at the group.

Echoing voices emerged from all directions.

"That question, it should be me asking it, what is your purpose here."

Sophia, cloaked in a black robe with her hood drawn up, stepped out from the night.

Then a second, a third, a fourth... a hundred identical figures emerged one after another from the darkness.

Eerie voices echoing together, reverberating.

Duke Gold's scalp tingled a bit.

It seemed they had been watched all along, and from beginning to end, they hadn't noticed.

Who exactly was this?

Wait, they were not far from Tianyuan City.

So, this black-robed powerhouse was actually...

A person from Tianyuan City!

To Duke Gold, the seemingly ordinary Tianyuan City suddenly became mysterious again.
