CHAPTER 541: CHAPTER 1: COMMENCE THE PLANE WAR

Audrey’s Catastrophe-level Trait, [Breath of the Gods], is overwhelmingly powerful merely because of the word "probability" embedded within it.

Theoretically, this trait only has a minuscule probability of awakening one or two ancient Heroic Spirits when a Necromancer reaches a certain area.

Ordinary Necromancers have to traverse various regions globally, sensing the presence of Heroic Spirits in different areas, like Dragonbone Plain, Edge Mountains, Ruins River, and Glacial Abyss, and then summon a few Heroic Spirit-level units.

These few mighty Heroic Spirit Warriors will serve as the Necromancer’s guards and most formidable trump card.

But anything related to probability becomes ridiculously exaggerated in the Golden Pansy Domain!

Audrey rides on her Griffin across the land, and a dense pack of Heroic Spirits runs behind her, following her back on the ground, now forming two full squadrons.

Though these two squadrons do not consume her Commander Value, they indeed receive all her Commander Bonuses!

Thus, these two squadrons of Heroic Spirit-level Warriors, akin to her Summoned Creatures, are the sharpest blades in the army.

The only possible drawback is that these Heroic Spirit-level Undead cannot be resurrected through any means once they perish in battle. They are a one-time troop type.

But, well, whose troops in this world aren’t one-time? Whose life is granted twice?

Even if they are one-time, does it matter how long that one time lasts? If they can exist for hundreds or even thousands of years, why worry about them being one-time existences?

After all, they are virtually invincible.

At Audrey’s level of strength, it’s extremely difficult for Heroic Spirit-level Soldiers to fall in battle.

A medium-scale campaign is almost necessary for any reduction in the Heroic Spirit-level Soldiers’ numbers.

What scale is a medium campaign? Throwing down 20 pieces of Territorial Essence, with hordes of Green Skins and millions of battles, that’s what a medium campaign entails.

In such circumstances, even the territory’s heroes cannot ensure their own survival; casualties are inevitable. Everything will be compensated for in victory!

And having such a multitude of Heroic Spirit-level Undead units, Audrey undoubtedly holds up half of the territory’s military strength on her own.

A complete setup of two Necromancers, two squadrons of Heroic Spirit-level Warriors, and nearly one squad of Catastrophe-level Knights.

It thoroughly demonstrates the formidable stature of a hero; with just her alone, innumerable forces can be obliterated. If there were, say, a Templar Order, Lin Rui wouldn’t even need to lead troops into battle.

Audrey herself could clear this stronghold as if she were clearing a monster camp.

Audrey was also quite proud, snickering as she said to Lin Rui: "Lord, wouldn’t you say I count as one of the territory’s heroes now? You haven’t considered letting me command the territory’s soldiers? Even giving me one squad would do. Surely I can’t just remain a leader without troops?"

"Leader without troops?" Lin Rui looked at her and asked, "How do you arrive at that conclusion of being a leader without troops?"

Audrey put her hands on her hips confidently and said, "You see, my Undead are all linked with my Spiritual Energy, summoned through my Soul Summoning Skill, Resurrection Skill, and summoning spells. You’ve got to assign me some territory citizens, right? Like that Idiot Dragon, Death’s Wings."

"Didn’t I give you a Recruitment Scroll for one squad of Witch Demons?"

Audrey quickly clung to Lin Rui’s arm, "No, no, that’s still Undead, not territory citizens. I want people, I want a powerful squad of soldiers! Like the Holy Grail Knights."

This woman merely dislikes that Undead can’t interact; being the Commander Knight has become an addiction!

Lin Rui decisively refused: "Your Commander Bonuses only apply to Undead, not to Knights or Soldiers. Transferring a squad of Epic Holy Grail Knights under your command would diminish their combat capability."

"Then... if not Holy Grail Knights, letting me have the Valkyries works too! I think Valkyries would be quite handy. I need high-end combat power, don’t I?"

It does make some sense.

Lin Rui thought for a moment and said, "Then let’s put Su Xi under your command."

As the first lady, it’s appropriate for you to lead the sisters into battle as well.

Actually, Su Xi’s most suitable commander is Terion. During battles, she would massacre infantry en masse in the midst of formations, while receiving full-force healing from Combat Priestesses.

Secondarily is Violet; during assaults, she follows the Knights, relying on kills to continually refresh her Sub-Invincible Shield. However, with the [Deep Strike] of the [Avenging Goddess] Power Armor, the Knights now teleport around the target, significantly shortening their assault paths.

Therefore, Su Xi is still best suited to fight alongside the Valkyries, diving into seas of soldiers. After all, every soldier she kills grants her the Blood Tyrant Body, simultaneously accumulating the Attack Power of [Flowing Slash].

However, given she’s to output among soldiers, outputting within Audrey’s army doesn’t make much difference.

Although a bit of Terion’s Commander Bonus is missed, it’s made up by giving her several pieces of Legendary Equipment.

Su Xi possesses the most Legendary Equipment across the entire territory, including a Legendary Weapon [Sin Song: Blood Red Crescent] and a Legendary Ring [Thunder Light Ring].

These two pieces of Legendary Equipment severely enhance her sharp output.

When activated, the ring greatly increases Su Xi’s Attack Speed and Movement Speed, accompanying a 0.5-second area stun damage.

Additionally, it features a 150% Life Value spiritual shield. Once shattered, it can be reformed after disengaging from battle.

Acquiring several pieces of Legendary Equipment amidst this Plane War is of paramount importance!
