CHAPTER 63: CHAPTER 22 NEW TROOPS RECRUITMENT_2

"Were you a single rail in your past life? To be such a nitpicker in this one!"

Seeing the Commander’s face turn red with anger, veins popping as if he’s about to explode, Lin Rui immediately adjusted his attitude, acting more obedient than a school kid, and said, "Please, continue, I won’t interrupt."

Warren suppressed his anger and said, "Planes are not stationary; they have fixed paths of movement in the Heavens and Myriads of Realms. This rift only nears the Demon Realm of the Evil God once every cycle. Each time it connects with the Demon Realm, a large number of monsters pour in."

"The spatial rift here is not large, which is why the Empire only built a monument here to fend off the invasion of the Chaos. But the erosion of Chaos is endless, and the Empire cannot station an army here permanently, so they set up a teleportation gate. Every cycle, fanatics embark on a path of asceticism, voluntarily coming to resist the Chaos Army."

Lin Rui pointed at the two-meter tall muscle bullies beside him, asking, "Are the fanatics them?"

Warren nodded and said, "Yes, the path of asceticism for fanatics has lasted for over a thousand years, always active on the front line of resisting the Chaos, using their lives to stop the invasion of the Chaos Army and resist the temptation of the Evil God."

"Why are they called fanatics?" Lin Rui asked curiously.

Warren glanced at him and asked, "You should know that any emotions or desires of mortals can be consumed by the Evil God and lead them into falling."

Lin Rui nodded. These Evil Gods are unreasonably strong. As long as humans, or humanoid beings, exist, whether they’re happy, joyful, resentful, sad, or even involved in acts of violence or lust, anything that causes emotional disturbance allows them to grow stronger and produce an endless army.

Warren said, "So the best way to counter the Evil God is through sincere faith."

"Then which deity do they believe in?"

"They believe in none, considering even praying to gods a strong emotional fluctuation. They sincerely believe only in themselves, their muscles, and the Spiritual Energy within them. So they can’t be affected by any Curse Spiritual Skill nor benefitted by any Beneficial Spiritual Skill, standing steadfast on the frontline against Chaos. For this, they would have no regrets even in death. Every cycle, dozens of fanatics die in the warfare against Chaos."

Lin Rui precisely summarized that the Empire has no effective solution for this spatial rift, no way to cleanse it, nor can they ignore it, so they simply set up a teleportation device, each cycle coaxing a batch of Imperial citizens to walk the path of asceticism, voluntarily coming here to resist Chaos, engaging in a chess game with Chaos.

Although the number of Chaos is endless, the Empire is also a master of using vast numbers, and in the massive Empire, the least lacking element is the gray masses at the bottom. As long as Chaos is kept at the spatial rift, the upper echelons of the Empire can rest easy.

Lin Rui opened the attribute panel of a fanatic

[Devoted Fanatic: Sean Yor]

[Talent: Excellence Level]

[Level: Tier One, Level 8]

[Physique: 38]

[Intelligence: 10]

[Charm: 1]

[Will: 40]

[Soul: 20]

[Root Bone: 18]

[Commander: 0]

[Luck: 0]

[Life Value: 350/770]

[Spiritual Energy: 100/100]

[Command Value: 2]

Trait: [Power of Repentance: As the final battle between good and evil slowly unfolds, fanatics are also ready to embrace death. The time has come, the apocalypse is near! Life Value +200, Physical Defense +15%, Physique Increases Life Value +50%.]

[Extreme Frenzy: When facing the enemy, fanatics will charge into the battlefield without hesitation, shouting cries of destruction, filled with the martyr’s dream. Their fight is brutally fierce, wielding Steel Staffs and Wolf Fang Hammers against the enemy, leaving a trail of blood behind. Anyone who can’t quickly wipe them out will suffer sharp, piercing attacks. Attacks include 100% Spiritual Damage, base damage increases by 150%, and base attack speed increases by 50%. Upon entering combat state, every 30 seconds, overall attack speed +10%, overall damage +10%.]

[Fanatical Body: These muscular men scoff at all worldly ghosts and monsters, and do not believe in the gifts of others, not even the Divine Power of gods. This unit cannot be affected by any Curse Spiritual Skill debuffs or any Blessing Spirit Skill buffs, including Healing Magic and any potions.]

Skill: None

Lin Rui’s eyes widened, he wiped his eyes, and looked three times to confirm he wasn’t mistaken. All normal attack damage increased by 150%, with 100% Spiritual Damage added! Even Rare Level Trait only barely boosts damage by 30%, the first trait of Heroic Spirit Level Troop only provides 50%. And after entering combat state, they can raise overall stats by 10% every 30 seconds. Damn, if they enter the battlefield for ten minutes, won’t they be tearing apart Gundams by hand, smashing Giants with a punch?

Who needs any skills! Even normal strikes are like ultimate moves, every swing of the Steel Staff or Wolf Fang Hammer crushes their opponents’ bones, making them vomit blood all over.

But this group of muscle men, with their output maxed to the extreme, also has a major weakness, and that’s they can’t receive any allies’ buffs, not even drink a potion.

If they encounter a large-scale spell bombardment by enemy troops, this army will evaporate in an instant, with no time or way to save them.

But if one straggler survives the melee, remaining active on the battlefield, their damage will be so painful it would make all opponents cry for their mothers, one slash causing lockjaw, two slashes seeing spirits!

Thinking about how many Excellence Level Troops have been consumed in the fight against Chaos, Lin Rui immediately declared with great righteousness, "As the Lord of Golden Pansy, the supreme ruler of this land, I naturally have a duty to fight Chaos, and cannot let the Empire’s loyal warriors face the invasion of Chaos alone."
