Outrageous! I started as the Elf King!

Chapter 28 Ancient Tree of War - Advanced!

the next morning.

Lin Yi woke up from a deep sleep.

After a night's rest, he was completely refreshed and his energy was fully restored.

He sensed the state of his internal magic power and found it had increased significantly compared to yesterday. If all goes well, he should be able to break through and enter the intermediate King rank within the next two days.

Reaching the King rank makes breakthroughs much more difficult.

Or you could say that the higher the level, the more magic power is needed to break through.

Lin Yi seemed to have thought of something and asked in her mind, "System, the level increase reward for mission one, is it a minor realm or a major realm?"

— [Returning to the host will naturally elevate you to a higher realm.]

"atmosphere!"

Lin Yi was overjoyed.

The difference between the minor and major realms is enormous.

For example, he is currently at the initial stage of the King rank, and advancing one small realm would be to the intermediate stage of the King rank.

If it's about advancing to a higher realm, then it's directly at the initial stage of the Extraordinary Realm.

Two different improvements, worlds apart!

"It seems I need to level myself up as high as possible before the mission is completed."

"If I can reach the peak of the King rank, then with another upgrade, I'll immediately be at the peak of the Extraordinary rank!"

The harder you work now, the greater the rewards will be later!

"His Majesty!"

At this moment, a tall and beautiful elf magician entered the wooden house carrying a wooden basin and toiletries.

"Just put it there."

Lin Yi got up from the bed.

They put on robes under the care of an elven mage.

While washing up, Lin Yi asked, "Have all the elves gone hunting?"

The elven mage stood gracefully to the side and respectfully replied, "Yes, Your Majesty, apart from the elves responsible for building the walls, everyone else is out hunting."

Lin Yi asked, "How's the wall construction going?"

The elven mage replied, "We're about two-thirds done. Once a few more batches of rubble are brought back, we should be able to complete the construction of the wall."

"very good!"

Lin Yi nodded and said, "According to my calculations, the blood moon will arrive the night after tomorrow, and there will definitely be a great battle then. Tell the elves to work hard and hunt as many wild monsters as possible."

"To expand our territory, we need energy crystals."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, we will certainly not slack off!"

The elven mage spoke solemnly.

Their innate mission is to serve the "Elf King Lin Yi," which is an honor for them, and no elf would slack off.

Lin Yi nodded slightly.

The elves' loyalty is beyond question.

After washing up, he came to the dining table.

His breakfast was laid out on the wooden dining table.

A plate of roasted meat, a few pieces of fresh fruit, and a drink made with honey and fairy spring water.

As Lin Yi ate, she thought to herself, "Eating this kind of food every day is getting a bit tiresome. I'll have to find a way to improve our meals when I have the chance, at least we should have rice."

To be honest, the elves cooked the meat for him perfectly.

Tender and juicy, rich but not greasy.

The taste is not bad, but it lacks various seasonings, especially chili peppers.

Although the ruins cover a large area, they are not rich in resources, making it very difficult to find seasonings. As for rice and wheat, they are absolutely impossible to find.

"There should be some over in the Chaotic Plains, but it's too far."

After quickly finishing breakfast, Lin Yi took a broad leaf from the elven mage and wiped her mouth, asking, "Have the results of last night's hunt been tallied?"

"Your Majesty, the statistics have been compiled."

The elven mage respectfully said, "Last night, we harvested a total of over 124,800 energy crystals and 145 magic cores."

"So many?"

Lin Eaton felt a hint of surprise.

This was the most fruitful night so far.

The elven mage said softly, "Due to the influence of the blood moon, a large number of magical beasts and monsters appeared at night, especially swamp giant rats, which were countless. In addition, there were undead creatures that appeared at night, so the harvest was more than before."

Of course, there is another reason, which is the explosive increase in the number of elven units.

More soldiers, more monsters, more loot. "Excellent, keep it up!"

Lin Yi gave a thumbs-up.

He had just acquired over 100,000 energy crystals; he needed to make good use of them.

……

We arrived outside the wooden house.

The first thing Lin Yi saw was the wall under construction in the distance.

Overnight, the wall has reached a height of over four meters and a width of nearly two meters, and it is almost finished.

"Although it is made of piled-up stones of various sizes, it is very hard and can weaken the attack of magic skills to a certain extent."

"Furthermore, the elven mage reinforced it with earth magic..."

"Its defensive capabilities are far superior to walls built with ordinary stone!"

"Fortunately, there was a magician..."

"If it's just a simple pile, it'll probably collapse under a swarm of rats."

As they spoke, Lin Yi arrived at the place where the energy crystals were placed.

More than 100,000 energy crystals are piled together, each one crystal clear and with a beautiful luster no less than that of gemstones.

In Lin Yi's eyes, no amount of gems could compare to these energy crystals before her.

Unless it's a magic gem.

"With so many energy crystals, we can upgrade the War Tree and see what units will be unlocked after the upgrade."

With that in mind, Lin Yi went to the foot of the ancient war tree.

Consume 50,000 energy crystals to upgrade the War Tree.

As a dazzling golden light descended, the War Tree rapidly grew, instantly reaching over two hundred meters in height, becoming level with the Tree of Life not far away.

A huge shadow was cast down.

The air in the entire square was noticeably fresher.

Most importantly, the magic of life and nature has become even more intense.

In this environment, the elves meditate and cultivate, and even without drinking the elven spring water, their progress is not too slow.

……

【Ancient Tree of War】

[Building Information: Elf faction unit class building.]

[Level: Advanced]

[Unlocked Elf Classes: Elf Archer, Elf Swordsman, Elf Huntress, Elf Mage, Elf Priest, Gryphon Rider]

Upgrade Requirement: 500,000 Energy Crystals

[Special Note: Upgrading the Ancient Tree of War will unlock more Elf faction classes.]

……

[Elf Priest: Training requires 2,000 Energy Crystals and one Little Elf]

[Gryphon Rider: Training requires - 3,000 Energy Crystals, 1 Sprite]

……

"Is this what advanced troops are like?"

"It's priced in the thousands! It's that expensive!"

Lin Yi's lips twitched violently.

Training an elven huntress only requires five hundred energy crystals.

Both of these advanced troop types, even the cheapest Elf Priest, require two thousand energy crystals. Looking at the seventy thousand energy crystals he has left, if he used them all to train Elf Priests, he wouldn't even be able to produce forty?

As for the hippogriff riders, they are even more expensive.

However, it seems to be another buy-one-get-one-free deal.

"The more expensive the training, the more powerful the troops!"

Lin Yi could only console herself with this thought.

Although his system is notoriously expensive, what it provides is absolutely worth the money.

"There are no sprites in the territory right now, so we can't train new units."

"Let's wait until tonight to tally up the day's gains before deciding whether to use it all to train advanced units or upgrade the Tree of Life..."
