Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 448 - 443: Armies at the Border

A high wall, several tens of meters tall, stood between Lin You’s war base and the battlefield, completely separating the two.

And inside the wall lies the base of the high-level battlefield, similarly surrounded by a massive protective shield.

Inside the shield, people came and went, all Tier Nine Lords from various realms, with a small number of Tier Eight Lords confident in their own strength.

Around them, there were basic buildings surrounded by many arrays.

Living quarters, restocking and healing, storage, teleportation, bulletin boards... all the basic functions were available.

Clearly, the handiwork of the Great Emperors.

Moreover, just like he imagined the battlefield to be, this time there were many cultivators from the indigenous forces accompanying them, specifically handling support, logistics, and similar matters.

Some master craftsmen and alchemists had directly set up blacksmith shops and apothecaries on the front lines to provide assistance to the Lords.

It was evident that the Great Emperors were serious this time.

Once all the Lords from each realm gathered, it would likely be the moment to invade the opposing realm.

Before that happens, he must quickly familiarize himself here and establish a foothold on the battlefield.

With this in mind, Lin You started to stroll around the battlefield area.

To his great surprise.

At the back of the battlefield area, there were stations set up by various realms, forming camps fenced with wooden barriers, where Lords from each realm came and went, creating a bustling atmosphere.

"I heard the Realm Alliance made a move again today, seemingly gathering personnel in large numbers."

"Gathering personnel? Could they be planning to attack us?"

"Better if they do, that way I can kill more and earn some battle merits."

"If they want to attack our rear, they must first take over this battlefield area, otherwise it would be pointless."

The idle chatter of several Lords on the side fell clearly into Lin You’s ears, causing him to pause his steps.

Just like those Lords said, all teleportations in the battlefield have the function of replenishing Lords.

To invade each realm, you must first capture the battlefield, cutting off the supply of Lords, otherwise, you may eventually be worn out.

It seems that the Realm Alliance also sees their side as a thorn in the eye.

Not daring to waste time, he immediately headed towards the Primordial Realm’s station.

"Lin You?"

As soon as he entered the station, a voice suddenly called out to Lin You.

He stopped in his tracks, looking in confusion toward the source of the voice, and was momentarily stunned.

On an open ground in the distance, a graceful figure in white stood gazing at him, like moonlight cast on silk — gentle and elegant, with a serene beauty.

"Is it you?"

Standing in place, Lin You’s eyes were full of surprise and emotion.

"Long time no see."

Ji Yunshuang smiled warmly.

"Yes, it has been a while."

Lin You’s gaze was calm, without the expected surprise or intense reaction, instead showing a gentle smile like meeting an old friend not seen for years.

At this moment, Ji Yunshuang had changed greatly from the last parting.

More mature, and steadier.

Exuding an aura of restraint, like a polished gemstone, brilliant yet not dazzling.

Perhaps due to being of the Angel Type, an aura of sacred grace surrounded her.

"Didn’t expect to meet you here, how have you been lately?"

The two smiled at each other, naturally walking together, strolling on the open ground of the station.

"Not bad, I arrived a few days ago, what about you?"

"Me? Still the same, eating and sleeping as usual."

Lin You shrugged, his heart slightly surprised.

No wonder he didn’t see her at the previous Lord gathering, she had arrived earlier.

And to his surprise, Ji Yunshuang had now reached the same Tier Nine as him, clearly having gone through much in recent times.

And so.

The two wandered around the realm station, chatting about their recent experiences.

Their cheerful interaction drew glances from other Lords of the Primordial Realm.

"Who is that guy, walking so close to the Valkyrie?"

"The Valkyrie? Ji Yunshuang from the top hundred on the enemy-killing leaderboard?"

"Yes, her. Rumor has it she recently single-handedly pushed back a Tier Nine squad from the Realm Alliance and killed two of them, retreating only due to excessive depletion."

"Whoa, that fierce?"

"Isn’t it said that the Valkyrie never acts with anyone?"

The Lords whispered, their gazes all drawn to Lin You and Ji Yunshuang.

Their conversation also reached Lin You’s ears word for word.

"I didn’t realize you’ve become so strong now," Lin You remarked in surprise.

"It’s just their exaggeration," Ji Yunshuang voiced with a hint of helplessness, "At that time there happened to be a Tier Nine Lord Demon nearby, and I lost many species to finally push them back, I returned to replenish and rest this time."

"I see, perhaps we can collaborate next time."

After almost half a year, Lin You indeed missed those days of fighting on the battlefield together.

"Sure," Ji Yunshuang replied with a bright smile, her eyes forming crescent moons.

Afterward.

After chatting with Lin You about matters concerning the realm battlefield, she bid farewell and left.

As he watched her gradually disappearing figure, Lin You did not linger either, moving towards a floating blue crystal in the center of the station.

This colossal crystal, as tall as a three-story building, was the place for battlefield merit exchange among all realms and was surrounded by a crowd of Lords.

No doubt about it.

The number of Tier Nine Lords from the Primordial Realm is quite substantial.

While they might seem rare within each realm usually, their numbers here are immensely overwhelming when they all gather on this side.

Standing right in front of him was a crowd numbering over a thousand.

Moreover, other Tier Nine Lords were constantly rushing in.

Lin You finally managed to squeeze into the crowd, opened the merits exchange interface to take a look.

The next second, he was completely stunned.

Faith Treasure Pearl!

And Origin Crystal!

All available for exchange!

There were even all kinds of high-level treasures, rare artifacts, rare species tokens, everything one could wish for.

The only thing that puzzled him was that most items, including the Faith Treasure Pearl, were currently gray, indicating they couldn’t be exchanged.

After looking at the interface explanation for a while, he finally understood that these required a certain combat merit level for exchange.

Precious items like the Faith Treasure Pearl needed "Third-Class Battle Merit" for exchange, which meant killing more than 10 enemies of the same level.

As for the Origin Crystal, it required Second-Class Battle Merit of killing 100 enemies to exchange.

Just imagine.

Here, the enemies were all Tier Nine Lords; it’s not something you can easily kill.

This was likely set up to prevent loopholes of buying and trading battlefield merits, hoarding resources.

If you want to exchange items.

You can.

At least go to the battlefield and kill some enemies first.

There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

Overall, it could be considered a strategy to motivate Lords from various realms to fight bravely, and it truly reached a meticulous level.

Lin You glanced at his combat merit level on the interface, Recruit...

Alright, it seems he still needs to strive harder.

Closing the interface, he continued to wander around the base.

"Attention! Large numbers of Realm Alliance troops spotted ahead at fifty kilometers!"

Suddenly, an urgent shout rang out from above the distant city wall.

All Lords within the high-level battlefield had their expressions change.

"An enemy attack?"

"Realm Alliance is attacking?"

"Such audacity, we haven’t made a move, yet they started first?"

"Quick! Get to the walls, we mustn’t let them breach here!"

The Lords shouted incessantly, quickly abandoning whatever they were doing and hurried towards the city walls.

Lin You didn’t stay idle, immediately leaving the base and following the crowd up onto the city walls.

Sure enough.

At the horizon of the field of vision, a large mass of dark shadows appeared, nearly covering the entire sky and ground, rapidly closing in towards them.

Even from afar, the ground’s vibration could be felt.

"Leave the city, prepare to engage the enemy!"

At this moment, a figure standing in the void appeared above the city wall.

The terrifying aura immediately shocked everyone below.

"Tier Eleven!"

"It’s the Commander!"

Every battlefield, whether high-level or low-level, had a Tier Eleven powerhouse stationed, also the commander leading the entire battlefield.

This was to prevent the Realm Alliance from sending out powerful individuals to recklessly kill low-tier Lords.

As the commander appeared, an elder simultaneously appeared above the Realm Alliance’s side.

His aura was equally terrifying, no weaker than the commander on the Ten Thousand Realms Camp side.

The two stood in the sky, wary of each other.

The overwhelming aura collided in the air, causing the entire space to shake violently.

However, they didn’t strike, as they knew that once they did, all the Lords below would be gone instantly.

So after the clash of sparks, they disappeared without a trace, likely facing each other somewhere else.

The crowd below, seeing this, instantly felt invigorated.

"Go! Out of the city to meet the enemy!"

"Kill all the Realm Alliance bastards!"

This dozens-meter-high city wall was not enough to stop the onslaught of the Realm Alliance’s army and would hinder the performance of land-based species.

Fighting here would surely drag the battlefield into chaos, and Realm Alliance must not be allowed to approach at any cost!

With a series of orders, countless species emerged and gathered on the battlefield outside, ready to fight.

More Lords who received the news continuously came from all directions and joined the ranks behind.

"Charge!!"

At this moment, the black tide-like Realm Alliance force surged to within less than ten kilometers, emitting earth-shaking shouts.

Numbering over a hundred thousand at least.

"Charge!!"

"Kill them for me!"

The Ten Thousand Realms Camp side, unwilling to be outdone, roared in fury, and the massive force turned into a tide, launching a fierce assault on the Realm Alliance’s troops.

In an instant.

The forces on both sides surged and rapidly clashed together.

Within the ranks, Lin You summoned all his species at once.

With a loud boom.

Cyan Rattan’s massive body appeared!
