Chapter 707: Chapter 702: Yazd Slave Army
The task of the Huaxia Battle Group is completed, and Gaia’s Will has rewarded us with ten extra days of stay.
Bai Pu kept his word, once again bidding farewell to Principal Bosh and other native leaders, expressing his desire to roam the continent.
Principal Bosh was regretful: "You are the most outstanding student at the Garrison Academy headquarters, and I was planning to let you graduate early and go to War God Peak for advanced studies."
Studying at War God Peak means Bai Pu would have access to the top resources and the best cultivation techniques for Fighting Qi on the Twin Star Continent, and even easier access to guidance from the Principal.
This is clearly a reward for Bai Pu’s remarkable merit in completing the main storyline of the world.
Bai Pu was also helpless, as he could not reveal his identity as an Awakened.
"I’m used to being free and unrestrained, enjoying adventures in dangerous places to broaden my knowledge. Deep cultivation behind closed doors doesn’t suit me."
Bai Pu ignored the wistful gaze of Munis, a beautiful woman of War God Peak, and said with a smile, "However, some of my comrades will remain here. They can be of use in tasks like sealing Sarajael and eliminating the remnants of the Demon God Rebel Army."
Principal Bosh said gladly, "Good, the reconstruction of order on the Twin Star Continent after the war requires the unity of every force."
Bai Pu introduced Ming Yue and others to the high-level officials of the Demon Fighting World.
He didn’t care about the other reputations, merit points, etc., and transferred them all to Ming Yue, asking her to exchange them for some valuable rewards as she saw fit.
After finishing all this, Bai Pu quietly left the Demon Fighting World.
...
A flash of light, and Bai Pu found himself amidst a purple-red nebula, with a faint outline of the Twin Star Continent of the Demon Fighting World visible.
Scenes flashed by, showcasing the native powerful beings defeated by the Huaxia Battle Group, like the Divine Descent Warrior Ferudo, the Ancient Dragon People Great Elder Khabazan, the Native Lords controlled by the Demon God Mark, and the True Red Executor, all flickering in turn.
The final scene froze on the Netherworld Demon God Salajael, whose enormous wings blotted out the sky, as if the entire continental map was overshadowed by His wings.
The terrifying sight of the purple-black hole wound on His neck, and Bai Pu charging out from within Him, appeared like a mere ant.
[Plane World: Demon Fighting: Battle Academy]
[Duration: 22 days 19 hours 18 minutes]
[Time: Late Third Epoch]
[Scope: Twin Star Continent]
[Based on your task completion and evaluation, you have been awarded 196,334 Spiritual Points.]
[You have accumulated 11,785 points of fame in the Demon Fighting: Battle Academy World. Your reputation in the Demon Fighting: Battle Academy World is S-level: World-renowned.]
[You have obtained the title: Dawn Lord.]
[Dawn Lord: S-level title. At the arrival of the polar night, you are the dawn light bringing hope and redemption to everyone. Your bravery on the battlefield will inspire your allies in the same camp, granting them the Fearless effect.]
[Fearless: The owner’s pain perception is reduced by 10%, and the damage taken is reduced by 10% (with a maximum reduction of 100 points on single damage intake), damage from mental control effects like fear, charm, and confusion is reduced by 30%. The Fearless effect can stack, up to a maximum of 3 layers.]
This title seems somewhat similar to the "Nation Destroyer" title.
The Nation Destroyer title can enhance the Attributes of Bai Pu’s direct troops by 5% and reduce the Attributes of enemy nation troops by 5%, which is quite effective in large-scale battles.
In the recent army campaign in the Demon Fighting World, Bai Pu had not many native troops under his command, only the Awakened of the Huaxia Battle Group enjoyed the enhancement. However, the weakening of enemies was indeed solid.
In comparison, the "Fearless" effect bestowed by the Dawn Lord title can stack up to three layers. Once stacked, it is considerable.
Bai Pu checked that stacking the Fearless layers actually depends on how many "bravery" performances Bai Pu has made, how many times he has inspired the allies.
Bravery performances include slaying enemy commanders or important generals, destroying enemy main general flags, and achieving a kill count of 100 or more in a single battle.
Accomplishing any kind of bravery performance can inspire allies, with a maximum stacking of 3 layers of inspiration.
Bai Pu put away this title.
He glanced at the Honor Exchange Counter. At this moment, the counter showed no qualitative improvement compared to the items he exchanged during his time as a School Officer. The most prominent items were a few pieces of Advanced Golden Equipment, which were rather underwhelming to Bai Pu.
Speaking of Golden Equipment, the equipment depot of the Huaxia Special Service Bureau still has some decent pieces. Just as Bai Pu’s Golden Ox Horn Armor was damaged, he could fetch one for temporary use.
Of course, Golden Equipment stored in the depot of the Special Service Bureau must be extraordinary, which might seem temporary to Bai Pu but is definitely the top-grade dream for ordinary Awakened.
Bai Pu did not delay and silently thought of returning.
...
A flash of white light, and the sensation of weightlessness gradually dissipated.
"Where is this? Is it really Earth?"
When Bai Pu opened his eyes, he was somewhat uncertain and doubtful.
It was daytime, but on the west side of the blue sky, there was a crimson near-earth planet! Because of its close proximity, it had an overwhelming presence as if it was blocking out the sun.
Bai Pu could even see the dark red mountain ranges on the crimson planet with the naked eye.
Above Bai Pu, a slightly transparent protective membrane was flashing with light, accompanied by the flow of profound runes, clearly indicating that the city’s defense mechanism of the Western Capital had been activated.
Through the protective membrane, a swarm of tiny black dots, like Awakened, could be seen recklessly flying across the sky, as various energy attacks poured down on the protective membrane above the Western Capital.
"Gangxin! You’re finally back!"
A figure rushed over, plunging into Bai Pu’s arms, tightly embracing him.
Bai Pu had already recognized his Practical Officer Li Ling, so he did not evade and embraced her, gently patting her shoulder:
"Sister Ling, what happened? I remember there should be over fifty days before the invasion of the Stilan Star, did it happen ahead of time?"
Li Ling shyly stepped back from Bai Pu’s embrace and hurriedly said, "The red planet you see is not the Stilan Star, it’s the Yazd Star..."
"Yazd Star? Isn’t that a human planet? They were also suffering from the Stilan Star’s invasion, similarly victims."
Bai Pu squinted his eyes, quickly speculating, "Could it be that the Yazd Star was conquered and became a vanguard for the Stilan Star?"
"Exactly!"
Li Ling was not surprised by Bai Pu’s quick reaction as she was long accustomed to it, "The current invasion is by the Red Race from the Yazd Star. Among them, the powerful Awakened form the so-called ’Yazd Slave Army,’ which first completed the positioning to invade Earth! Accompanying them are a group of Sea Race Supervisors."
Pausing for a moment, Li Ling added, "The incident happened suddenly, and the top forces in the country were all drawn to the Spirit Realm battlefield, unable to repel the Yazd Slave Army’s attack! We can only activate the defense arrays in various base cities, constantly supplementing energy with Spiritual Points to barely maintain the defense."
