Chapter 25
In the dark world, the source crystals are what restrict the development speed of the dark lords in the early stage.
As long as there are enough source crystals... even if you upgrade to level 50 at once, it will only take a few minutes!
Of course.
If you only increase the level but the combat power cannot keep up, then you will not be able to deal with the dark creatures that invade from the edge of darkness, which will be a tragedy.
Therefore... combat power must be increased along with the level
"Now it feels good."
Qin Ye looked at the dark creatures around him. Killing one at random would drop sixty or seventy source crystals.
Killing a group would drop seven or eight hundred source crystals. Dark creatures were killed almost every second in all directions! This feeling was impossible for even those lords of dozens of levels to experience.
After all... this was the effect of super god-level talent and S-level talent combined! Without Qin Ye's own super god-level talent, even if he had ten times the effect of source crystals, he would not dare to use the level 1 dark bait. He could not beat them at all.
……
Lin Mengyu returned to her territory with her attendants and cavalry.
Her attendant, a commander-in-chief, was named"Unknown Knight".
After returning... she squatted on the edge of her original territory, looking far into the darkness where Qin Ye disappeared.
Qin Ye has a vision of all her territories.
But she does not have a vision of Qin Ye's territory!
So... when Qin Ye goes back, she can't see Qin Ye.
At this time, the school beauty girl was a little depressed because she became someone else's attendant.
Unknown Knight:"My Lord, please cheer up!"
Lin Mengyu said weakly:"How can you ask me to cheer up?" Unknown Knight:"It is our luck to be a subordinate of the Shadow Demon Lord! You see, the pocket money that the Shadow Demon Lord promised to give you is more than what we can earn on our own."
"???"
Lin Mengyu was a little helpless to complain.
This servant of hers... seems to have some mental problems?
Unknown Knight:"Besides, we have the protection of the Shadow Demon Lord, so we don't need to work too hard, just lie down!"
"!!!"
Lin Mengyu was puzzled.
There must be something wrong with this servant of hers!
"Never mind, maybe it's a good thing"
"Don't worry about it for now"
"I'm going to go out for a while, and when I come back, you guard our territory."
Lin Mengyu thought of something and decided to go back to Blue Star first and tell others about the situation... at least tell her father.
"Don't worry, Lord."
The nameless knight, wearing iron armor and riding on a black horse, said solemnly:"If the territory is in danger, I will immediately ask Lord Shadow Demon for help!"
"……"
Lin Mengyu thought, why not just give this servant to Qin Ye?
……
Qin Ye ignored Lin Mengyu.
Ten minutes later!
The duration of this level 1 dark bait finally ended...
As the dark vortex dissipated.
The surrounding dark edges finally stopped flooding with groups of dark creatures.
His territory calmed down again!
""Clean up the battlefield."
Qin Ye commanded the attendants, civilians and soldiers to clean up the battlefield together.
This time, there were too many source crystals dropped in his territory!
If only civilians were allowed to pick them up... it would take a long time.
Even so, it took him more than ten minutes to pick up everything.
In the second half of the time, two elite dark creatures spawned around, and a Mist Breaking Seal dropped, as well as a 2-star attendant equipment.
——
【Gold-red armor (2-star attendant equipment): general armor. HP +300, defense +30】
【Equipment requirement: Level 6】
——
This equipment is not bad.
Unfortunately, Qin Ye's servants are not yet level 6, so they can only be thrown into the warehouse to collect dust for the time being.
Fortunately, in this wave, what he is most looking forward to is not this equipment, but a large amount of source crystals!
"The statistics are out……"
"A total of 124,000 source crystals!"
Qin Ye's eyes lit up.
For other new lords, even if they developed smoothly, it would take more than a month to get this amount of source crystals.
Some lords at level 30 or 40 can only harvest 10,000 or 20,000 source crystals every day!
And this... is only one-third of the dark bait time to get the"ten times source crystal" increase!
If the increase is obtained throughout the process, the number of source crystals will be even more terrifying!
"Upgrade!"
After Qin Ye collected so many source crystals, he upgraded the Nine-Tailed Fox without hesitation!
The little fox Su Daji was upgraded from level 3 to level 5, consuming 4900 source crystals.
——
HP: 960 → 1200
Attack: 200 → 240
Defense: 42 → 54
——
Now his lord core is level 5, so the servants can only be upgraded to level 5 at most.
When the little fox Daji reached level 5, the demon mage she trained also upgraded to level 5, and its attributes increased greatly.
And the most important thing is……
——
【Nine-tailed Fox Su Daji】
【Epic】
【Level 5】
【Kill dark creatures: 3555】
【Kill enemies: 1】
——
Her total kill count finally reached 3,500!
This kill count is commonly known as"war merit".
If you kill elite-level, warlord-level... and other level opponents, you will get multiple war merits.
Consuming war merit can upgrade the [star] of the servant!
Every time the servant's star level is upgraded, it will gain a 100% increase in basic attributes, and will also randomly strengthen a skill.
After these two waves of hard killing, the little fox Su Daji finally has enough war merit to upgrade her star level!
