Chapter 344 Logistical Difficulties of the Expedition
When Lin Bo opened the wormhole that led directly to the moon, players from the Otherworld Street all rushed over to join in the fun, and the world chat was buzzing with discussion.

[Sunset Duckweed]: Is this a major counterattack? Isn't it a bit too hasty?
[Blazing Blood]: Such a righteous cause, I am determined to dedicate myself to it!

[Toad Journey]: The dungeon is about to close, eh? (scratching head)
"Brother Mage!" [Picking up trash makes me happy] rode his flying motorcycle over with a whoosh, stopped next to the warlord's vehicle where Lin Bo was standing, and jumped several times to get onto the huge war chariot that looked like a small mound.

Curious, the mechanic inquired about the whereabouts of these green-skinned creatures. Upon learning that their destination was the Chaos Moon, he hissed in surprise, "Can we defeat them? Should we establish an outpost there?"

Her concerns were indeed valid. Although the greenskins were qualified biological weapons, it would not be easy for them to gain a foothold in a demonic realm that had already swallowed up several extinct planes.

The rate of casualties must be kept below the population growth rate of the Greenskins, otherwise we will get bogged down.

Lin Bo's primary goal was simply to remove the troublemaking greenskins from the Prime Material Plane, so that they wouldn't make a mess of the mortal world while he and the other players were away from the instance.

However, the Greenskin Expedition is indeed a good idea that kills two birds with one stone, as it can continuously refresh the progress of the "Blood Rain" series of missions, benefiting all players in the [Sanctuary] faction.

During the time Lin Bo was pursuing the true name of power in the starry sky, the leader mission series progressed quite quickly. With the killing experience provided by the faction members, the total benefits meant that he was less than a third away from upgrading to a Lv16 True Name Mage, which was only 80 million experience points short.

He predicted that if the Greenskins' conquest of Chaos went smoothly, they would be able to meet the upgrade requirements in about a week, and would continue to provide quest drop rewards, which would be quite substantial when converted into Cataclysm Coins.

If this instance is cultivated and managed diligently, it can undoubtedly bring long-term benefits.

Lin Bo was not worried about the Green Skins' ability to reproduce and survive. Their spores could germinate as long as there were a little nutrition. However, to cultivate qualified Green Skins, mushroom oil was needed as a raw material for the Magic Neuron.

Unlike Radiant Magic, Void Radiation cannot be directly used as an energy source. Unless he finds a way to purify it, the reproduction of the Greenskins will inevitably require a continuous supply of blood from the Prime Material Plane.

War is a contest of economic power. If you can't feed on the enemy, even if you cover the entire planet with fungal carpets and convert the heat and matter of the star's core and mantle into mushroom oil, it will still be very difficult to compete with a chaotic realm that has already buried a large number of planes.

Lin Bo was unaware of the Chaos Demons' resources. He could only assume that, with the full support of the Void, the Chaos's energy was virtually inexhaustible, and that their army's source of strength and primary sustenance was the souls of all living beings, which were also extremely abundant.

To obtain an inexhaustible supply of magical energy from the Chaos Moon, one must abandon the fragile bio-alchemy and switch to industrial alchemy. Void radiation may distort flesh, corrode souls, and pollute matter, but it can also be converted into heat and electricity, which can then be used to produce mushroom oil.

Lin Bo is always thinking about the refining process of mushroom oil. He also uses a lot of computing power to silently deduce the Star Crown of the Initial Network. To this day, he has proposed hundreds of possible solutions, which are just waiting to be verified in practice.

He couldn't handle it all by himself. This kind of work is better suited to a large group of alchemists working together. With a few hundred qualified alchemists and their apprentices, it would probably take several weeks to see results.

At this moment, a large number of idle players applied to the mage brother to go to the Chaos Lair to broaden their horizons and also help the Greenskins gain a foothold.

Having enjoyed the quest progress rewards from the [Sanctuary] faction, none of the vassal players are now below level 14, and they are all fully equipped, making their survivability beyond doubt.

Lin Bo didn't refuse, but simply reminded them to be careful. After all, it was a one-way ticket; once they reached the other side, they'd likely have to wait until the next instance challenge refreshed. The paladins were always the first to charge, immediately grabbing their radiant weapons and rushing into the wormhole. The sorcerers, warlocks, and pyromancers, who were keen on studying demons, also happily embarked on their journey. Some exemplary quests required warriors, barbarians, rangers, rogues, and others to annihilate large numbers of enemies; once prepared, they plunged into the time portal, brimming with murderous intent.

The mechanic pondered, rubbing his chin, and hesitantly clasped his hands together in a pleading manner towards Lin Bo, "Brother Mage, my mission is to create a mechanical wonder. Could your greenskins help me out? They are truly excellent technicians."

The Greenskins lack identification with other races and cannot connect to their psionic networks, so they are not considered one of their own.

Lin Bo has his own way.

He inscribed the twin true names of the Greenskin Destiny Dragons within a mithril ingot, forging it into a short scepter capable of commanding the Greenskins. He then used the blood of a Machinist as a token to synergize and bind it to the scepter; if not used by her, the true names would be concealed.

"Here you go." The mage handed over the green-skinned staff of authority, its gleaming mithril smooth and its head adorned with two green-skinned skulls. The overall craftsmanship was exquisite, but the design was crude and ugly.

"I will never forget your great kindness, Brother Mage, until I complete the Exemplary Quest!"

As the Mechanist accepted the token with a grin, the skull at the tip of her staff glowed with psionic green flames, and she could vaguely sense the howling green-skinned will.

As the euphoric mood of war surged through her, she couldn't help but shout "Wow!" She turned around, jumped onto her motorcycle, twisted the throttle, and roared straight toward the wormhole, while the green-skinned soldiers along the way cheered and applauded loudly for her.

Watching his old friend cheer and walk away into the distance, Lin Bo turned and returned to the camp.

Among the native pilgrims of this world are a large number of magic practitioners who choose to leave their homes and countries to devote themselves to the sacred land, seeking higher wisdom here. By forming mutual aid mage gatherings and seeking advice from players across the network, they have indeed greatly broadened their horizons.

With such high prestige, it's no surprise that the [Sanctuary] faction attracts talented individuals and wise men to its side in the chaotic post-apocalyptic world.

When Lin Bo returned from outer space, the local residents were already spreading the news. As the sun was setting, they gathered in small groups in the brightly lit square, waiting for a possible opportunity to meet His Majesty.

The patience of waiting for several hours gradually wore thin, and just as many were wavering, the ancient saint appeared.

He walked out of the woodland, the towering, dense trees of the rainforest shifting their roots to make way for him.

The whispers in the square ceased instantly, followed by a gradual rise of worship and welcome. Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at this godlike power capable of crushing the universe.

Lin Bo called upon the group of people with alchemy experience. Almost every spellcaster was more or less involved in this art, so there were many who responded.

"Okay, follow me."
