Zhou Zhou circulated the Violet Cloud True Gust in his body.
The promotional energy gathered by the Essence Spirit Array around him continuously surged into his body, causing his strength and realm to begin to increase at a visible speed.
Previously, Zhou Zhou had not felt it clearly because he had leveled up his territory outside the Beginner-Grade Lord's Paradise.
Now that he had returned to the martial arts area that was specially used for martial arts cultivation in this blessed land, he immediately realized that this seemed to be the place with the richest promotion energy in the Origin Spirit Array.
At the very least, he had felt ten times or more of the advancement energy outside the Beginner-Grade Lord's Paradise!
Originally, with the help of the Calamity Crossing Pill (Lord-exclusive version), he was only a step away from Diamond-Tier Elementary Grade.
Coupled with the Blessing of the War God and the shocking enhancement of this Essence Spirit Array, he felt that he would probably be able to break through to Diamond-Tier Elementary Grade tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
At the thought of this, Zhou Zhou felt a little strange.
He had experienced the pain of his Lord's strength increasing slowly too many times. This was the first time his strength had increased so quickly. He felt that it was unreal.
However, he knew that this was normal, so he naturally wouldn't really worry.
At this moment, Zhang Lansheng was led to Zhou Zhou by Aliya.
"Greetings, my Lord."
Zhang Lansheng said respectfully.
He looked at Zhou Zhou and was secretly shocked.
At this moment, Zhou Zhou's entire body was covered in a dense purple mist. In the mist, Zhou Zhou's immortal-like face could be vaguely seen, as if his Lord was an immortal from the sky.
Unknowingly, Zhang Lansheng was subconsciously impressed by this scene. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the Lord he followed was the most worthy person in the world.
Compared to his Lord, the other Lords he had seen were simply a troll.
"How's the situation in the Aurora Kingdom and the Tahan Kingdom?"
Zhou Zhou opened his eyes and asked.
"Reporting to my Lord."
"According to our investigation, ever since the king of the Aurora Kingdom, Li Yuangan, secretly spread the news that the Aurora Kingdom was attacked by the Tahan Kingdom to the Nether Bark Kingdom and the Titan Kingdom, the Titan Kingdom immediately launched an attack on the Tahan Kingdom."
"The Titan Kingdom's army has already invaded the territory of the Tahan Kingdom and has begun to fight the 600,000 monster army that the Tahan Kingdom has returned to defend."
"Now, the Tahan Kingdom only has 800,000 soldiers left in the Aurora Kingdom. Even though this still gives the Aurora Kingdom a lot of pressure, compared to before, the pressure has been greatly reduced."
Zhang Lansheng said.
"What about the Nether Bark Kingdom?"
Zhou Zhou raised his eyebrows.
"In the Nether Bark Kingdom, the new and old Popes are currently being replaced. For this reason, they are currently preparing for the God's Bestowment Ceremony in the country, so all battle activities have temporarily stopped."
"Even though some Cardinals wanted to postpone the God-Bestowing Ceremony and prioritize dealing with the Tahan Kingdom after they learned of the Tahan Kingdom's attack, this opinion was not approved by the other Cardinals. In the end, they still insisted on continuing the God-Bestowing Ceremony."
Zhang Lansheng was obviously prepared for this information. After hearing Zhou Zhou's question, he answered without hesitation.
Zhou Zhou raised his eyebrows.
This was different from what he had expected.
But fortunately…
They didn't deploy all the Tahan Kingdom's soldiers back to the Aurora Kingdom even though it was different from what he expected. That also relieved the pressure of the Aurora Kingdom's war. It shouldn't be a problem to hold on for another day or two.
Moreover…
Zhou Zhou was deep in thought.
There were only 800,000 Tahan soldiers left in the Aurora Kingdom.
With his current military strength, he might be able to give the Aurora Kingdom a try.
He thought for a while and then looked at Zhang Lansheng.
"Well done."
"How many members do you have in the Starfire Mercenary Team now? What's your current range of operations?"
Zhou Zhou asked.
"Reporting to my Lord."
"Currently, the Starfire Mercenary Team has already developed to the size of more than 4,000 people. We have also developed some of the territory of the Underworld Bark Kingdom apart from the Aurora Kingdom's territory."
"As for the Tahan Kingdom and the Titan Kingdom, due to the extreme aggro of the Subjects in their territory, we have temporarily set up some relatively remote adventurer team bases in these two kingdoms. We have also arranged for about 500 people to secretly investigate the information in their countries."
"As for the further areas, we only heard that there is a Flame Spirit Kingdom east of the Nether Bark Kingdom."
"It's said that that place is ruled by the Volcanic Elves. We haven't sent any adventurer team members there to establish a base and investigate the local information due to the distance and the harsh environment."
Zhang Lansheng said respectfully.
Zhou Zhou acknowledged.
He hadn't bothered about the Starfire Mercenary Team for a long time. He was already very satisfied with such results.
"It's developing well."
"However, we still have to work harder and achieve more results."
"Our territory is developing very quickly, so we need more information to pave our future development path in time to prevent us from taking the wrong path in the future."
"In this regard, the Heavenly Army and the Starfire Mercenary Team must bear this responsibility."
"Before you leave later, you can go to Vice City Lord Zheng and apply for 5,000 copies of the Violent Storm Spirit Class Change Certificate and 10,000 White Platinum-Tier Mist Cores."
"These are the rewards for your development during this period of time, as well as the development funds for the Starfire Mercenary Team in the future."
"I want you to expand the Starfire Mercenary Team to 50,000 members as soon as possible within a month!"
"If you need the support of Class Change Certificate, funds, equipment, manpower, experts, and other aspects, you can apply to Vice City Lord Zheng with your contributions. As long as you continuously produce results, the territory will be able to provide unlimited support for the development needs of your Starfire Mercenary Team!"
Zhou Zhou said.
"Yes, my Lord!"
"Our Starfire Mercenary Team will not disappoint you, my Lord!"
When Zhang Lansheng heard Zhou Zhou's words, he was instantly excited.
5,000 Violent Storm Spirit Class Change Certificates!
10,000 White Platinum-Tier Mist Cores!
With so many Kingdom-level Class Change Certificates and funds, the Starfire Mercenary Team was confident that they could become the number one adventurer team in the Aurora Kingdom in a short period of time!
Not to mention the promise that the Lord said he could support infinitely!
Unlimited support!
Just by listening, Zhang Lansheng could tell that these words contained a rich and imposing aura!
Towards this,
Zhang Lansheng felt that it was great to have such a rich boss!
After that, Zhou Zhou and Zhang Lansheng chatted more about the Starfire Mercenary Team before Zhang Lansheng bade farewell and left.
Zhou Zhou did not continue cultivating the Violet Cloud True Gust after he left. Instead, he called Aliya and her sister over.
"Aliya, Atley, call Mu Gu, Zheng Fugui, and Carol Moeli over."
Zhou Zhou said.
"Yes, my Lord!" x2
The two sisters respectfully accepted the order and turned to leave.
