Swamp Lord with an Intelligence System-Chapter 545 - 238: Recruiting New Members, Small Gains, Hunting Lizardfolk (2)
By next month, the collapse of the underground world will trigger major changes in the situation, and the dimensional space will connect with the main plane.
What will happen then, everything is still uncertain.
From any perspective, the situation is unstable.
Took a deep breath, eyes gradually restored clarity.
Step by step, first eliminate the immediate danger.
Accumulate strength to face those tough challenges.
One day passed quietly, after the sun set into the swamp, Haggs returned safely with over a thousand Wetland Lizard-men.
Those anxious Wetland Lizard-men entered the territory riding vine trains, looked cautiously at everything in Weilu City, their faces full of awe.
A city woven from vines, exactly like the legendary Holy City of the Swamp Race...
When they saw the groups of Cold-blooded Cavalry patrolling on Fierce Wild Lizards, they instantly went crazy.
Cold-blooded Cavalry, the legendary soldier among Lizard-men.
The number in this territory is surprisingly huge?!
Moreover, each one is wearing heavy armor, equipped with sharp war sabers!
Eyes red with envy.
Lizard-men’s desire to become Cold-blooded Cavalry is as intense as humans wanting to become Griffin Knights, beastmen wanting to become Dragon Rider Cavalry.
This is literally the image of themselves in their dreams.
Lear hadn’t even branded them yet, and these Wetland Lizard-men couldn’t wait to join Weilu City and become part of this territory.
When Lear arrived and saw the passionate eyes of these Wetland Lizard-men, his gaze softened.
Apparently, now Weilu City itself holds great attraction for outsiders.
A good city is always like this, making people yearn to become part of it.
Skillfully branded these Wetland Lizard-men’s souls, then let Haggs arrange them to be transformed into Cold-blooded Cavalry.
This batch of Wetland Lizard-men numbered exactly 1,200, not one more or less, plus 2,500 Cold-blooded Cavalry, the total number of Wetland Lizard-men in the territory reached 3,700!
An absolutely thrilling figure.
After nurturing them, forming an array charge, it would surely terrify the enemy.
Interestingly, among them, there was also a Level 10 Wetland Lizard-man hero.
Lear was intrigued; this was the first time he recruited hero units in this manner.
The opponent was a silent Lizard-man brute, most notable was a scar slashing diagonally across the face.
His strong physique was covered with wounds of all sizes, even the thick scale armor couldn’t hide them.
His eyes were filled with ferocity and brutality; if not suppressed by Haggs, he wouldn’t have shown Lear a good face.
A fierce and untamed warrior.
Lear resolutely enslaved him.
He liked powerful warriors.
Then, the opponent surprised him, his hero talent was quite impressive—
Lizard Aura, centered around himself, within a radius of 300 meters all Lizard-men units have a 20% increase in all attributes.
Aura skills, something even Level 15 Haggs didn’t possess.
When Cold-blooded Cavalry ascend to 4 Stars of potential, this 20% boost will greatly enhance them.
And crucially, the opponent was obtained for free.
No cost equals great comfort.
Moreover, the opponent is currently only Level 10, gradually nurturing him, perhaps his talent could further grow.
But on reflection, Lear felt some headache.
The biggest issue now is... lack of blood.
Cold-blooded Cavalry ascending to 4 Stars of potential requires a significant amount of blood, now need to first change these thousands into Cold-blooded Cavalry.
Good grief, what a huge gap this is?
Crocodile men, huh, tomorrow let’s eliminate those little foes!
Made a firm decision in heart.
But then a message unsettled Lear.
Late at night, the Great Demon scouting beastmen quietly returned.
"Sovereign, we detected an extraordinary presence among the beastmen."
"More than 10 hero units above Level 15."
"High tier units—Level 14 beastman berserkers, over ten thousand; Level 14 beastman shamans, over five thousand; Level 13 beastman flying dragon knights, over ten thousand; Level 12 beastman wolf riders—over fifty thousand; Level 11 beastman crossbowmen, over one hundred thousand."
"The rest are beastman warriors, around Level 10."
Lear was stunned hearing the composition of this beastman army.
This is the power expected of 3 Star intelligence?
Extraordinary, flying dragons, wolf riders, shamans, berserkers... This army’s configuration felt like taking down Lorand City with no disconnect.
A bit too exaggerated.
Extraordinary beings in the main plane are extremely rare top figures, yet they entered the wilderness.
The quantity of high tier army also far exceeded expectations.
The main plane unlike the underground world, units above Level 12 are absolute elites, even aces!
Originally considering whether to confront them boldly, now this thought vanished instantly.
No way, tens of thousands of high tier troops could drown Weilu City’s army using human wave tactics.
And the opponent has extraordinary beings!
This can only lead them into the swamp for an ambush.
In the wild, the forces he currently controls can’t suppress this level of being.
Perhaps obtaining that Divine Fragment from Stevens’ Blood Race could grant him the power to execute extraordinary beings outside the swamp.
Until then, better hold off.
Calming down, his gaze became profound.
"You continue to monitor their movements, return immediately if any accident happens, don’t linger."
"As you wish."
