NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 96: The Infinite Advancement of Bronze-tier Units
"So this is the power of the Black Ice Platform Halberdiers!"
Xiang Wang was still in a daze, staring at the direction where the blood-red light pillar had disappeared.
The alien Gold-tier units and Demi-God avatars that had driven them to despair were as fragile as tofu before the Halberdiers. Just one squad had killed some and forced others to flee, all while remaining unscathed themselves.
No wonder that woman Ying Yingluo, despite being so arrogant and offending so many, had lived so comfortably for so many years.
Countless aliens wanted to eliminate her, but they simply lacked the ability!
Just from seeing how powerful a single squad of Halberdiers was, one could imagine how terrifying she must be.
In the Black Ice Platform Expeditionary Force, the Halberdiers were just one part, with three guards of three thousand men each. Not to mention other unit types and additional troops!
Human sword cultivators and cultivators indeed had lost their advancement paths, but Ying Yingluo had shown everyone through her actions that even without powerful unit advancement methods, using only the most common units and continuously strengthening them could achieve such a powerful level.
It's worth noting that her units, the entire Black Ice Platform Expeditionary Force, were essentially Bronze-tier human warriors.
They reached their current level through repeated enhancements and the soldiers' own diligent cultivation.
Bronze-tier units could be strengthened to very high levels, but this method was extremely costly, while advancement only required minimal resources.
Ying Yingluo came from the Ying family, humanity's top aristocratic family, and she constantly invaded and plundered vast resources.
For many years, she didn't ascend. Many humans and aliens from her initial batch had long left the novice Divine Realm, partly to avoid being suppressed by her and partly to enter the Continent of the Gods early for development and to compete with her in the future.
In this situation, without rivals and constantly plundering alien races to strengthen herself, after years of accumulation and her units' own cultivation, no one knew how terrifying her accumulated power had become.
"Indeed, very powerful," Xu Luo's avatar jumped down from the starship, watching Viia still chasing the Emerald Dragon in the dream realm. Although Viia was stronger, the Emerald Dragon was focused solely on escaping, making it hard to catch for the time being.
At this point, after the battle ended, some of the Xenomorphs began to experience genetic collapse.
The death of the others was just a matter of time.
Seeing this situation, Xiang Wang opened his mouth but, noticing Xu Luo's lack of reaction, wisely chose not to mention it.
"My name is Xiang Wang. I don't know your name yet. Thank you for your rescue."
"Just call me Xu Luo," Xu Luo said, unconcerned about his gratitude.
"We're all human. It's only right to help each other in times of trouble."
"Xu Luo?" Xiang Wang frowned. He knew this name, but could it be the one he knew?
"Are you from Tianhai No. 6 High School?"
"How do you know?" Xu Luo asked, puzzled. He wasn't famous, and didn't know many people in this world.
"I'm also from Tianhai City!" Xiang Wang didn't mention his previous attempt to invade Xu Luo's Divine Realm.
"I'm from the Xiang family. I apologize here for my younger cousin's immaturity earlier. For this incident, I owe you a favor!"
Although Xiang Wang didn't consider himself a good person, he at least knew to distinguish between gratitude and grudges. This time, Xu Luo had saved him, and he acknowledged this debt.
As for the grudge between Xiang Xun and Xu Luo, it was just a minor conflict between children in his view, nothing like a deep hatred, and could be resolved.
Moreover, having witnessed Xu Luo's strength, why make an enemy of such a person unnecessarily?
Among the younger generation of the Xiang family, including himself, none were a match for Xu Luo!
Not to mention those Gold-tier butterflies, just one Gold King was enough to defeat them.
Although his brother was also a genius, he couldn't be compared to such a prodigy!
Especially considering this youth was only in his first year of high school, having opened his Divine Realm just a few months ago, and already had Gold-tier units?
Thinking of this, Xiang Wang felt somewhat dazed.
Could he be another Ying Yingluo?
Not all aristocratic children were fools; naturally, they wouldn't make enemies everywhere.
Xiang Wang hurriedly bid farewell and left, feeling somewhat ashamed to stay.
Moreover, his losses this time were also substantial, and he needed to return to recover and help others.
Their battle had ended, but it didn't mean the entire conflict was over.
Other humans also came forward to express their gratitude.
Although Ying Yingluo had intervened in the end, without Xu Luo's appearance, their Divine Realms would have collapsed long ago, so they were still very grateful.
Unlike those who came to support, who suffered great losses but didn't affect their foundations, these people were different. If they had lost and their Divine Realms were breached, it would have meant losing their qualification to develop in God's Domain.
Xu Luo accepted their gratitude, but declined their offer to give him various collected resources. For him, it was just a small amount of resources, but for these people whose Divine Realms had been severely damaged, these resources could help them recover quickly.
Apart from the resource gains, of the hundreds of alien Divine Realms, only some escaped. The rest had their cores breached and were left behind, now slowly disintegrating.
Xu Luo let them absorb these Divine Realms separately. He recalled his own units, had the Mayflies decompose some of the evolution points, and then returned to the starship.
He didn't decompose all the corpses, as he had already obtained the genes. The remaining corpses were just some evolution points for him, but giving them to others to decompose into materials could compensate for their losses somewhat.
Although he liked benefits, he would go and take them from aliens when needed, rather than competing with his own people unnecessarily.
At this point, the battle between Viia and the Emerald Dragon was also coming to an end.
Viia, in her human female form, dragged the Emerald Dragon by its tail and threw it onto the starship's deck.
The Emerald Dragon was so weak it could barely open its eyes.
If not for its body still moving slightly, one would have thought it was already dead.
"Human, release it, and I can pay a price!" A voice suddenly came from the Emerald Dragon.
"Kill it!" Xu Luo remained unmoved.
Possessing an Emerald Dragon meant the opponent had other units and was personally very powerful. He might not be a match for such an entity and couldn't incorporate them into the "Umbrella" system. So, to avoid trouble, it was best to simply kill the Emerald Dragon and be done with it.
Hearing his order, Viia didn't hesitate. With a swing of her sword, she killed the Emerald Dragon.
"It's yours now!" Xu Luo instructed Viia to absorb the Emerald Dragon's abilities. Both had dream abilities and similar systems. After absorbing the Emerald Dragon's abilities, Viia's power would become even greater.
