"Lynn, my level is rising so fast!"
Just after Lynn returned and placed Helena and Natasha back in the safe zone, Catherine, teaming up with Lynn for the first time, couldn’t help but exclaim.
Vivian, having some experience, remained relatively calm, but the rapidly increasing level still made it hard for her to control the curve of her mouth.
"I didn’t expect the experience calculation to be so smart; it seems we don’t have to rush out to fight right now."
As the freezing cold wave spread, countless Demon Race soldiers along the way were turned into ice statues, and the Demons extinguished entirely by external forces surprisingly were counted as experience points, benefitting Lynn’s team.
Though ordinary Demon soldiers’ levels are far inferior to those of legion high commands, their sheer numbers are vast. In just a few breaths, the freezing cold wave engulfed tens of thousands of Demons.
Even if the experience provided by each magic energy was minimal, when accumulated, it became quite a considerable number.
A strategic Divine Artifact truly lives up to its name, neither failing the strategic title nor the artifact tier.
Lynn’s originally planned bloodbath wasn’t necessary for now; they could easily follow the freezing cold wave all the way to the artifact’s coverage limit, perhaps eliminating most of them without further action.
About an hour later, Lynn and others pursued the freezing cold wave to the middle of the snow-capped mountains, freezing countless Demons along the way, where the Divine Artifact’s power ceased.
Lynn estimated that the extent of the current freezing prowess spanned far beyond ten thousand, even two tens of thousands, but rather a full Kun ten thousand miles!
Perhaps the natural environment of the snow-capped mountains was too conducive to this artifact, allowing it to unleash power beyond its limits. After all, it could freeze ten thousand miles in other environments, so doubling that in icy conditions seems plausible.
"Now only Cleia is lagging behind. Once I eradicate those Demon strongmen, it should be enough, and the rest can be divided among Little Youli and Little Yuna before handing it over to the Divine Protection Continent allied forces for cleanup."
This was already Lynn’s team’s third round, with Helena, Natasha, Catherine, and Vivian having smoothly advanced to Level 800, becoming renowned yet rather fledgling Peak Saint Tiers.
Cleia, who was following Lynn without much thought, has now reached Level 772, surpassing the former top individual of the Divine Protection Continent, the Saint Emperor of Light; it feels like a dream, achieving such power so effortlessly is unbelievable.
She hadn’t even lifted a finger, attaining a level of power she once dared not even dream of, is this the favor of the Divine King? Truly remarkable...
"We’ve passed eight large Demon camps along the way, and there are twelve major camps around the snow-capped mountains. Due to the cold wave’s coverage not being enough, the two camps on the edges are definitely missed, and besides those Demons already frozen to death, there are estimated to be five ’camp’ armies ahead, roughly fifteen fully staffed legions."
Cleia, unable to contribute anything else along the way, only absorbing the "experience points" from Lynn, estimated and calculated the number of remaining Demon stragglers and defeated soldiers. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Fifteen fully staffed legions, on the Divine Protection Continent’s side, each legion starts with at least ten thousand people, and sometimes a legion from the populous Human Race might even embody seventy to eighty thousand people.
But the Demons are even more outrageous compared to the Human Race, given their almost universal enlistment, when fully staffed, a legion of a million Demons sometimes doesn’t hold.
This means at least fifteen million Demon troops stuck between them and the Divine Protection Continent allied forces!
Such massive warfare can only occur in a world where a continent equals a planet. If you think a single-sided military scale of ten to twenty million isn’t so large, you must consider this is just the opening battle of driving out invading forces.
"They are quite capable, actually intercepting the Demons."
Lynn gazed afar, seeing countless desperate Demon stragglers frenetically assaulting the defensive line of the Divine Protection Continent allied forces, which in Lynn’s eyes would hardly withstand a blow or two, yet the allied forces managed to hold off the frenzied assaults of the Demon stragglers.
It’s worth noting that among the Demon stragglers are no less than twenty Peak Great Demons, and there are hundreds of high-tier Great Demons above Level 700, whereas among the Divine Protection Continent allied forces, the strongest eight Saint Emperors are merely in the Level 730s, and there are only eight of them, with completely zero Peak Saint Tier at Level 800.
Regarding the high-level Saint Tier above Level 700, adding both local troops and newly arrived Expeditionary Army from the Divine Protection Continent together doesn’t fall short compared to the Demons, but the enemy has Peak Great Demons, numbering around twenty, whereas the Divine Protection Continent’s side can only produce eight Saint Emperor-level experts, lacking even a single one above Level 750 due to the absence of the Saint Emperor of Light.
Despite this stark contrast in strength, the Divine Protection Continent allied forces somehow intercepted the defeated Demon army; Lynn could only say the gods indeed offer protection, while the Demon God seems inactive.
However, these aren’t matters needing contemplation now, as the freezing cold wave has halted, and the remaining Demons now require personal eradication.
The defensive line of the Divine Protection Continent allied forces appears relatively stable, but given the disparity in strengths, it’s uncertain how long they can hold.
To prevent the Demon stragglers from breaking through the allied forces’ defense line and recklessly invading the vulnerable rear of the Divine Protection Continent, Lynn and his team must ensure all these Demons are eliminated here.
