Chapter 832 -832: 1-Star General
The lady-in-waiting was startled and asked, “What method?”
The others were also very curious. The elite strength of the Lizardmen was no joke; even if the Banshees were formidable, facing an army of one hundred thousand would only overwhelm them. Of course, if there were melee troops to withstand the enemy’s onslaught, the role of the Banshees’ artillery would be another story.
But what Li Yao said about solving the enemy’s one hundred thousand-strong army without losing a single soldier or warrior was indeed a bit exaggerated and too incredible to believe.
Even the queen couldn’t achieve that feat, let alone Li Yao, who was making the claim.
“Allow me to keep you in suspense for now. It wouldn’t be fun if I told you right now. Sister, please help me first by transferring the enemy’s Teleportation Array,” Li Yao said with a mysterious smile.
Yesterday, when the battle had erupted, Li Yao and his team had occupied that Teleportation Array’s stronghold and had prepared for this moment.
However, while the lady-in-waiting and the Banshees were busy, Li Yao received a communication through the conch.
“The enemy has already started retreating. The original plan is void. Detonate the Teleportation Array,” said the calm voice of Ms. Yang, betraying no emotion.
Li Yao was stunned; this news was somewhat unbelievable.
In fact, as soon as he discovered the Teleportation Array, Li Yao had guessed that whether the Lizardmen won or lost the battle, they would seize the opportunity when the main city was understaffed to attack Undercity through the Teleportation Array.

This was an excellent opportunity. If the Lizardmen were victorious, it further demonstrated the vacuous state of the Undead; they would ruthlessly take over the Undead’s main city.
When the Undead reinforcements arrived, but the Lizardmen were victorious, their reinforcements would also be ceaseless. By then, taking back control of the city would be extremely difficult.
If the Lizardmen were defeated, they were already on the brink of collapse, and launching a surprise attack on Undercity was a critical step in turning defeat into victory. If they captured Undercity, as long as they held it for a certain period, the Lizardmen could regroup and turn the tide.
Moreover, after the battle ended, the opponents did just that, and Li Yao had even sketched out a plan that would wipe out the entire enemy army, with a feasibility that was nearly one hundred percent.
Just when he was about to succeed, the enemy unexpectedly began to retreat, which really annoyed Li Yao.
Li Yao crushed a piece of transparent crystal in his hand fiercely: “Damn it, what’s going on?”
Just as Li Yao crushed the crystal, at the camp of the Teleportation Array, the Lizardmen had just occupied it, but for some reason, a large number of Lizardmen began to retreat.
The Teleportation Array emitted unstable fluctuations, followed by a small mushroom cloud appearing, nearly lifting the huge camp into the sky.
The Lizardmen still in the camp were instantly blasted into pieces, while those on the outskirts of the camp were swept away by the tremendous blast wave. However, their formidable strength meant that being blown away was merely a mishap; the damage was secondary.
They stared dumbfounded at the mushroom cloud soaring into the sky, all Lizardmen feeling a lingering fear.
“The Second Priest was right; our plan has been exposed. We retreat; we must not give them a chance to surround us,” said a general from the Lizardmen, his eyes bloodshot as he watched the mushroom cloud.
Although he had yet to calculate exact numbers, he knew that roughly ten thousand elite Lizardmen soldiers had been blown to smithereens.
He even felt a chill, wondering what the outcome would have been if they had teleported over.
The Lizardmen left with hearts full of hatred and sorrow. They took one last look at the collapsing main city in the far distance and followed the general into the dense forest.
“Indeed, the other side suffered no less than ten thousand casualties, you have earned a merit,” the queen said.
However, Li Yao was very dissatisfied, as it was clearly a great achievement to completely annihilate one hundred thousand of the enemy, and now it had been diminished to a minor merit, which was truly infuriating.
But Li Yao understood that, even though he was a reborn individual, not everything could develop according to his calculations.
This incident served as a warning bell, causing Li Yao’s previously slightly inflated ego to return to a state of calm once again.
“One truly cannot afford to slack off,” Li Yao silently resolved. He prepared a new spiritual power training plan, determined not to slack off just because he had achieved a breakthrough that no one else had before.
With the complete closure of the dimensional channel and the total retreat and collapse of the remaining Lizardmen, this grand confrontation involving nearly thirty million troops finally drew to a close.
This battle would neither happen nor exist in reality; in the game, it was also an unprecedented first, causing a huge sensation.
Not to mention the players who personally participated in the battle, even the spectators who watched all night still felt a sense of incompleteness.
Of course, the most memorable aspect of the fight was the Starfire Band, with their legion, constantly creating turning points in the battle, which was utterly heart-stirring.
The situation in the battle was confusing and the outcome was hard to predict, yet Starfire’s dazzling performance was obvious to any player, and Starfire became the biggest winner of this battle, gaining both fame and fortune.
Not only did they make good relations with many guilds, severely hit Starfire’s rivals, but they also used this battle to firmly unite the old and new members of Starfire, and the demeanor of Li Yao and the senior leaders let all members experience the guild atmosphere of Starfire.
The queen stood at the high top of the altar, “I said, whoever kills Blood Shadow will be rewarded with ten thousand gold, granted land, and a military rank; now is the time to fulfill that promise.”
The queen waved her hand, and a large cart pushed by gold coins appeared, dazzling everyone with a sense of illusion; after all, that was ten thousand gold coins, and it was good enough if the experts even had one gold coin in their backpacks.
“I confer the rank of General on Starfire Tianxiang, to enjoy the various benefits and treatments of a general,” the queen said as she put a medal on Tianxiang, then looked at Li Yao, “Starfire Prairie Fire, I on behalf of the Chieftain confer you the rank of general, as a one-star war general, the highest officer of the Sandbar Satar Camp.”
There was no question about Tianxiang’s military rank; although the player’s rank was recognized by the faction, it was nominal without any real power, merely enjoying corresponding benefits, such as certain privileges in performing certain tasks and scenes like this war, where one could be a commander.
But Li Yao was different; he was not only a general, but also a one-star war general in charge of a camp. Especially in the Dark Camp, a military jurisdiction system had always been in place, which meant that in Sandbar’s Satar Camp, Li Yao held supreme authority, appointed by the Chieftain, recognized across the faction.
No need to mention the immensity of the power; at this moment, countless people envied Li Yao.
And Li Yao was very aware that his attainment of this military position with real authority was not by chance but was to facilitate his explorations in Titan’s Relics.
As for the military ranks for various group leaders bestowed by the Banshee later, they were not as impressive.
No matter how many people envied, were jealous, or hated, and no matter how excited Starfire was, this battle finally drew to a close.
“Come with me,” the queen said and walked into the teleportation gate.
Li Yao knew that what remained was the matter of the land; he was somewhat looking forward to it, knowing that guild land was essentially on lease, and the queen could take it back at any time.
But being granted the land, he was essentially becoming a Lord, a matter of great importance; after all, buying a residence or shop in the world of ancient gods was not feasible, acquiring a piece of lordship land was truly against the heavens…
