Chapter 280: Chapter 239: Cleaning and Looking Ahead_2

“In the absence of the Lord, it’s safer to use human troops. Otherwise, troops might be attacked by other players as monsters.”

But with human troops…

Or in other terms, the mainstream units such as spearmen, guards, archers, only the troops exist, not the monsters.

Unlike goblins, there are both goblin troops and goblin monsters.

Although players can scan—the ones that can be scanned are monsters, otherwise, they are troops or players, but in intense combat, in a complex jungle of steel, players could still instinctively react and attack goblins as monsters when they encounter them.

Human units are much more reliable.

The Eternal World didn’t have monsters like spearmen, at most, they could encounter some ‘barbarians’, ‘mountain bandits’ of the human race, but they are also rarely seen.

Mainly, it’s inappropriate to let the skeletons move independently when the Lord is not here.

Mu Yuan summoned another 20 to 30 elite human troops, led by Niu Si, the deputy head of the defensive troops, and Uta, the Dragon Power strongman.

“Leave it to us, Lord!”

Uta clenched his fist, all fired up, quickly warming up with thirty push-ups.

Mu Yuan:

Not exactly dependable, indeed.

But Fortunately, Uta’s strength is formidable despite his unreliable behavior, and while Niu Si may not be as powerful, he had been with Lu Liu for a long time and was steady when it comes to work.

The two of them together were enough to uphold a team.

Without Uta, only relying on Niu Si, who is in the early stages of being elite, and most of them are still at the professional level, they were still too weak.

The others…

“When an incident occurs suddenly, and the Lord wants to teleport troops across boundaries, it’s a prerequisite that his own troops are within his territory.”

At this moment, General Dead Bone and General Duo Lai were both out in the field, conducting exploration, reconnaissance, or transportation.

Seventeen was not present either.

A few days ago, he had sent Seventeen to Shiling Town to oversee their newly opened shop. The current Seventeen was no longer as naive as she was a few months ago, at least handling things above the mark.

Mu Yuan was quite assured about her, just a pity that Seventeen couldn’t be present now.

Isloa also left with a merchant team yesterday, preparing to go to Shiling Town to purchase some materials, some equipment for making medicine, only more reliable if she went to buy them in person.

So, she was asked to escort the merchant team along the way.

Mu Yuan contemplated, “Rakshasa and Hong Yi are still within the territory, although the Phantom Series looks rather scary, but… as long as they are not seen, it will be fine.”

Upon thinking about this, his backhand once again radiated high light, the place where his palm was facing seemed to open a dark hole.

Within the black hole, shadows flew out with a whoosh, disappearing in a flash and in the blink of an eye, they merged into the corner street light’s shadow, disappearing without a trace.

However, if someone were to stare closely at the shadows, they might be able to see a pair of eyes opening one after another from the darkness, countless in number.

“Each of you leads a team, clear up the monsters hidden in this area of the city, take care to avoid other players. Before you act, make sure you see clearly, don’t attack other players’ troops as monsters. If you make careful identifications, it’s not hard to differentiate between orderly soldiers and instinct-driven monsters.”

From a not-far-away shadowy spot, darkness eerily spread out on both sides, quickly fading away in Mu Yuan’s psychic senses.

He looked at Sophia, “We each lead a team, too. I will give you some Halberd Guards and Archers.”

“Okay boss.” Sophia hesitated but still said, “But boss, are you okay?”

She was referring to, the boss has summoned more than two hundred elite troops continuously, would they consume too much?

The Lord who summoned over a hundred elite troops earlier drank a lot of potions heavily.

And the more powerful the individual, the more energy and spiritual power were required by the Lord to teleport them.

“How can the boss tell you that he can’t?”

Mu Yuan waved his hand, “Do I look like I can’t handle it to you? Let’s get on with it, the sooner the rescue, the better.”

Come to think of it, the boss was so… so steady and he really didn’t need her to worry.

Sophia then led a dozen elite troops, marching quickly towards a zone where the monsters were running around.

Mu Yuan felt the remaining energy in his body.

Still three-quarters left.

Summoning two hundred elite troops was but a drop in the bucket for him. First, his energy was ample, far superior from the previous Lord, and second, he had a closer connection to his own troops, making summoning incredibly easy.

“A quarter of the consumption, using Duo Lai’s recovery rate, takes around 17 minutes to recover fully, excluding the consumption… Yes, it’s indeed better to save some.”

Mu Yuan also set loose the Black Crows, flying in all directions to scout.

In the night, within the city, Black Crows were more useful than Battle Falcons for scouting and less likely to be mistakenly killed.

He climbed up a tall building, loaded part of the ‘seventeen’ template.

And took out a rare level Treasure Bow.

With this beggar-version setup, he couldn’t bring out 30% of Seventeen’s power, but…

“To deal with some fleeing monsters, it is more than enough.”

The arrow shot out like a shooting star.

“The first one.”

“The nineteenth one.”

“The thirty-seventh one, two of which are elite-level monsters.”

Sophia murmured, she prowled in the dark alleys, focusing on hunting high-level monsters.

With the ubiquitous Black Crows, she almost had control over this section of the city, like a fish in water, at ease.
