The only thing capable of producing such terror is the earth-shattering change brought about by sheer power!
"Velna has a keen eye! That's right, I did have a strange encounter in the world of Alfheim. To be honest, it wasn't anything special, except that I left 99.99% of the people in the kingdom behind!"
Liu Tianyu readily admitted it and no longer concealed the terrifying, surging energy within his body.
In just a moment, everyone felt an intense pressure pressing down on them.
Keep in mind, this is a portion of the magic power of the three Dark Elf leaders! Their strength is in no way inferior to that of a hero, especially General Dilba, whose strength is already close to that of a demigod.
That's why Liu Tianyu's stats became so incredibly high after absorbing some of their magic.
Chapter 156 The Grand Upgrade Ceremony
"Guwa!"
"Uh-huh!"
Everyone inside the large tent felt an extremely powerful and terrifying pressure. This pressure was so strong that it materialized and radiated outwards from the tent, causing intense vibrations.
"W-What happened? Was it an earthquake?"
"Idiot, if it were an earthquake, how could it happen so suddenly? Someone must be using magic!"
"Damn it, could this source be the main camp?"
The Ice Wolf warriors on guard around the main tent felt the sudden and terrifying tremor, their expressions varied, and then they all involuntarily moved closer to the main tent.
"Hahaha..."
"Is its sheer aura that terrifying?"
"Feixue, maybe you've really made the right bet this time?"
The commotion outside the tent was already this big; the commotion inside the tent was bound to be even bigger.
The condition of Liu Tianyu's own people in the troop column was relatively good, but the condition of the Ice Wolf Clan elders who had arrived at the Ice Wolf Clan village but had not yet joined Liu Tianyu's troop ranks was not so good.
Some were drenched in sweat, as if they had just fought a life-or-death battle; others collapsed to the ground, exhausted and unable to breathe.
No matter how disheveled they were, their eyes couldn't help but sweep over Liu Tianyu and Feixue.
Their mere aura was so powerful that it almost rendered them unable to fight. Just how monstrous would their true strength be?
Most importantly, does he really possess the ability to bring about a radical transformation in Feixue and her people?
If they were skeptical when they first arrived in Feixue's village and met Liu Tianyu, they are now 90% convinced.
The main reason is that the ability to directly transform and evolve people is simply too heaven-defying; even the Ice God they worship does not possess that kind of power.
And now, for the sake of power, they are willing to abandon their faith in the Ice God, which is truly...
"Swear allegiance to me! I will bestow upon you and your people the same power as Feixue and her people on behalf of the great God-Emperor! This will free you from the shackles of depleted potential and allow you to continue to grow stronger!"
Their gazes naturally couldn't be avoided when they looked at Liu Tianyu. Liu Tianyu walked directly in front of them and addressed them with a solemn expression.
His appearance was both compassionate and righteous, making it impossible not to believe him.
Looking at Liu Tianyu, who seemed to be radiating light, the six Ice Wolf Clan leaders, each with a different demeanor, wore varying expressions, but quickly hardened their resolve. They knelt on one knee before Liu Tianyu and shouted in unison:
"My lord, I am willing to represent the Claw Village and join your ranks, to fight for you to the very last moment!"
[Ding! Two Ice Wolf warriors have joined your party.]
[Ding! Three Ice Wolf Witch Doctors have joined your party.]
[Ding! An Ice Wolf Shaman has joined your party.]
As soon as the six people finished speaking, Liu Tianyu heard the system's mechanical voice, and at the same time, six more Ice Wolf Clan members appeared in the troop list.
"Very well, gather everyone and have them all swear allegiance to me. Tonight, I will hold a grand blessing ceremony for you in place of His Majesty the Divine Emperor, so that all of you may break through your limits as much as possible!"
Liu Tianyu smiled slightly and called out to the six people.
"Your command!"
The six men quickly obeyed the order and left the tent.
…………
After a long time, the Ice Wolf Clan village, which originally had only a few hundred people, has now gathered more than eight thousand people.
Standing on the already erected platform, Liu Tianyu looked down at the Ice Wolf Clan warriors, young and old, and couldn't help but feel a surge of pride.
Those below are now all his soldiers. With their addition, his strength has truly expanded!
The instant they joined, the system upgrade notification sound echoed wildly in his ears, almost deafeningly loud.
"My warriors, you are not human, and you once believed in heretical faiths that were not the God-Emperor's. However, His Majesty the God-Emperor is so magnanimous that as long as you believe in Him and are loyal to me, all your past transgressions will be forgiven."
And now, my warriors, accept the blessings from His Majesty the Divine Emperor!
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Tianyu immediately clicked on all upgrades in the troop section.
[3200000 denars consumed; 8820 soldiers upgraded!]
Because there were simply too many Ice Wolves, Liu Tianyu had the system fully upgraded.
And that's why the system faithfully executed his commands.
In addition to the Ice Wolf soldiers below, all other soldiers in his unit list who were eligible for upgrades were also upgraded.
At this moment, with Liu Tianyu's command, dazzling lights of varying sizes and colors appeared one after another on the Ice Wolf Clan soldiers below!
"What happened? Honey, son, how are you?"
"Father, what exactly is going on?"
"So bright, so clear, my eyes, ahhh..."
The vast majority of the more than eight thousand Ice Wolf Clan soldiers below were bathed in the dazzling light, but a small number, about a thousand, were not.
Those who were not bathed in light became the minority, staring wide-eyed at the people around them in disbelief, uttering gasps of astonishment.
As the light flashed continuously, some Ice Wolves grew larger and larger, while others became purer in color and developed strange tattoos.
Besides the physical changes, they, who were originally equipped with rudimentary weapons and equipment, now have complete sets of weapons and equipment.
Some Ice Wolves wore full sets of leather armor with iron swords and round shields, while others wore full sets of chainmail with steel swords and kite-shaped shields. The strongest of them even wore well-fitting plate armor with greatswords and steel shields, forming a complete set of equipment.
Of course, these armored soldiers are all physical-type Ice Wolf Clan soldiers; magical-type Ice Wolf Clan soldiers don't receive this treatment.
They were all wearing appropriate cloth armor, but the later the soldiers were, the more ornate their cloth armor became.
Even the only Ice Wolf Clan shaman, in addition to his cloth armor, wore an ice-blue cloak. This ice-blue cloak was less of a cloak and more of a cloak made entirely of ice elements.
"Awwww..."
"Ow ooh..."
After the dazzling light symbolizing the upgrade completely dissipated, all the Ice Wolves present involuntarily howled at the two moons in the sky.
Following behind Liu Tianyu, the native inhabitants of the continent of Tyrium, standing on the high platform, were witnessing this scene for the first time.
They themselves had experienced this several times before, but the scene of eight thousand Ice Wolves leveling up together was still too shocking.
Everyone involuntarily opened their mouths, but they couldn't utter a sound, lest they defile this sacred scene.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Crash!"
After their excited howls, without the slightest hesitation, the Ice Wolves below the platform knelt down in unison and kowtowed frantically to Liu Tianyu on the platform!
"Your Majesty the Great Divine Emperor!"
"A noble incarnation of a divine emperor!"
"You have enabled the Ice Wolf Clan to break free from its shackles and undergo a tremendous transformation. Please accept the Ice Wolf Clan's most devout faith!"
At this moment, Liu Tianyu, standing on the high platform, could clearly see the Ice Wolf Clan members weeping uncontrollably in the moonlight.
Liu Tianyu now understood that he had completely subdued the entire Ice Wolf Clan!
Chapter 157 The Assassination of the Sword Saint
The Kingdom of Geolar, in the Geolar royal city currently under restoration.
Having fully recovered and been reappointed as the chief instructor of the entire army of the royal city of Geolar, the swordsman Kreeher strolled around casually after finishing his training for the day.
After the entire army was disbanded, some people left the training ground directly, while others sought out familiar comrades and started gossiping and chatting.
Just as Kree was about to walk through the group of soldiers to find a secluded spot for her solo training, a conversation suddenly caught her attention, forcing her to stop and listen.
"Hey, have you heard that rumor?"
"I've heard some rumors. It's said that an entire battalion of 400 men was wiped out, right?"
"No, no, I heard that several people did run away, but were later caught in Lanarita."
"Utterly foolish! If you die on the spot, your family will receive a pension, and you might even be posthumously honored as a hero of the kingdom. But if you desert and get caught, you'll be publicly executed as a sacrifice to the god of war!"
"Seriously, how did they all get wiped out? That was a regular army of 400 men!"
"It is said that they were suppressing the Ice Wolf Clan rebels when an army carrying a black phoenix banner suddenly attacked them, leading to their complete annihilation."
"The Black Phoenix Banner? Do any of our nobles have a banner with a black phoenix?"
"No! There isn't even a phoenix. Therefore, we all suspect that foreign forces are attempting to overthrow our kingdom."
Hey, all of you come here. I'm telling you quietly, but whatever you do, don't tell anyone!
Suddenly, a soldier looked around and then found a secluded corner, where he began to tell his close friends the details he knew.
"It's said that the commander of that army is the one on the wanted poster!"
"Really? You mean the commander of that army is Liu Tianyu, the demon-possessed man from the kingdom who killed Princess Freya and kidnapped the Healer? Is this information really reliable?"
Upon hearing Xiaobing's words, one of his close friends couldn't help but raise his voice several decibels.
"Shh, keep your voice down, you idiot. My source for this information is my brother-in-law who deserted. He faced that demon head-on and was only released after his back was brutally slashed."
The soldier glanced at it nervously before whispering.
"Hey, what's the panic? We're all on guard, and nobody comes to this secluded corner!"
Seeing the young soldier looking rather erratic, an old soldier patted him hard on the back to comfort him.
"Tap Tap!"
Just as they were beginning to relax, the sound of high-heeled boots approached, followed by a rather bland but beautiful sound:
"Tell me everything you know, and also, take me to meet your relative."
If I discover that the situation is true, I will use my authority to save your relative from the death penalty, and I will report it to His Majesty as a meritorious deed.
"A sword, the Sword Saint, Lady Kreeher?!"
Seeing the silver-haired beauty emerge from the shadows, everyone present felt fear, not lust.
"Yes, yes, Sword Saint, I... I will tell you everything I know!"
As for the brother-in-law, who was a deserter, he was already terrified, shaking his head like a rattle-drum.
…………
"I never expected that in just a few days, this so-called free city of Lanarita would develop an air of order. Yu, you truly have the talent to govern a country!"
As Liu Tianyu walked with Liu Yu through the streets of Lanarita, watching the beggars disappear from the streets, the looting and arson vanish from the alleys, and the nameless corpses disappear from the streets and alleys, he couldn't help but praise Liu Yu.
Although the city of Lanarita is still filled with death, it has been infused with a vibrant and thriving atmosphere.
Order was restored to the streets and alleys, the ruins and rubble were gradually cleared, and the market was full of vitality; all three things were done simultaneously, and in just a few days.
Even a glimpse of the whole picture reveals just how outstanding Liu Yu was.
"My lord, you flatter me. This is all thanks to your excellent teaching. I am merely following the path you once walked."
Liu Yu, who had been following along, dared not overstep his bounds in the slightest and quickly replied humbly.
Liu Tianyu shrugged, clearly aware of his own limitations.
No matter how powerful he is in the game, he is still just a virtual character. He can achieve national prosperity and strength by simply pressing a few buttons. In reality, if you really expect him to govern and make his rule flourish, then he is probably too great. Hayek!
"How long will it take to prepare enough rations for 10,000 people for half a month?"
