Chapter 2656 Lin Yuan’s Rewards!
Qiu Kaixuan answered honestly, “Lord Lin Yuan, there are indeed some deaths and injuries. However, the death rate isn’t high. Most are just severely injured. Although we have prepared many medical teams, the regular healing-type feys are limited in their abilities to treat injuries caused by dead spirits. I’m sure Lord Zuo Ming also intends to report this issue to you!”
Lin Yuan immediately frowned. The issue he had been worried about had indeed come to pass!
It was truly not easy to handle dead spirits.
The dead spirits’ attacks could cause significant harm to living creatures that could not be healed via traditional methods.
This issue had dawned on Lin Yuan a day ago.
Although Lin Yuan had just arrived at the Dead Spirits Wells, the Moon Empress had already sent people to capture some dead spirits and deliver them to the Radiant Moon Palace. She then distributed the dead spirits among Creation Masters so they could research the dead spirits.
After their experiments, the Creation Masters realized that the dead spirits’ attacks could cause devastating damage to living creatures. Moreover, traditional healing methods could not stem the death aura’s infection of the body’s muscles and tissue.
The Creation Masters informed the Moon Empress of their discovery, and she instructed them to begin researching solutions before she relayed the discovery to Lin Yuan.
It had become a matter of utmost importance to develop feys that could effectively heal death aura.
Lin Yuan had come to test out the Dead Decay Earthworms. Once they were determined to be actually useful, Lin Yuan would immediately send the army of Hundred Questions Beasts to stop their research into feys that could consume death aura and divert their efforts to researching healing-type feys instead.
The Dead Spirits Wells would not stop spewing dead spirits. Lin Yuan needed to find a way to heal the Radiance Federation’s troops. Otherwise, as the death aura continued to contaminate their bodies, the size of the Radiance Federation’s army would only shrink!
“Apart from the healing situation, have you discovered anything else? You can tell me anything you think is important. As long as it affects the safety of the Radiance Federation’s troops, I will address it immediately! We can try our best to find ways to tackle issues that don’t seem to have a solution! All of the Radiance Federation’s Creation Masters have been activated. They will support the Radiance Federation’s troops and solve any issue that crops up.”
Qiu Kaixuan felt a sense of warmth wash over him when he heard this.
Lin Yuan’s words were evidence of the Radiance Federation’s upper echelon’s attitude towards their troops.
Qiu Kaixuan believed that with the support from the top Creation Masters, regardless of how dangerous the dead spirits crisis was or how long it went on, victory would never be an impossibility!
Qiu Kaixuan was Zuo Ming’s subordinate who was in charge of organizing information. He was aware of all the problems that the Radiance Federation’s troops had encountered during the battle against the dead spirits.
However, Zuo Ming had to be the one to report all of this to Lin Yuan. If he told Lin Yuan everything now, Zuo Ming would have nothing to report later.
“Lord Lin Yuan, our intelligence team has reported all of the issues we encountered over the course of this past day. Lord Zuo Ming will tell you all about them when you see him! He is currently waiting for you at the commanding watchtower!”
Lin Yuan nodded.
Zuo Ming had done well by assigning the intelligence team to collate and organize all the problems. When the problems were recorded, it would be easier for the humans to gain a detailed understanding of the dead spirits crisis.
The earlier they discovered the problems, the sooner they could solve them and ensure the safety of the Radiance Federation’s troops. This would minimize the damage done by the dead spirits.
However, one day’s worth of observation was not enough to gain a comprehensive view of all the issues of the dead spirits crisis.
There would be more types of dead spirits emerging.
The battle against the dead spirits had only just begun. There could be new problems arising anytime.
Lin Yuan had already resolved himself to deal with all the problems and challenges.
He caught sight of Zuo Ming standing in front of the commanding watchtower, who had just killed two Creation Breed dead spirits.
Black wings sprouted from Lin Yuan’s back, and he flew over to Zuo Ming.
Lin Yuan did not immediately ask Zuo Ming for updates on the current circumstances like he had done with Qiu Kaixuan.
Although Qiu Kaixuan had not gone into detail, he had told Lin Yuan everything that was important.
Now, the most important thing for Lin Yuan to do was distribute the Dead Decay Earthworms and solve the most pressing issue on the troops’ plate.
When Zuo Ming saw Lin Yuan, he hurriedly bowed respectfully, “Lord Lin Yuan, welcome. Please proceed with your observation and assessment of the Dead Spirits Wells.”
Lin Yuan was still only a member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence. He was not even a Radiance Envoy. But to Zuo Ming, he was no different from a member of the Radiance Federation’s royalty.
Otherwise, he would not have invited Lin Yuan to observe and assess the Dead Spirits Wells.
Lin Yuan took out four Silver fey storage boxes from his spatial equipment and handed them to Zuo Ming before he said with utmost seriousness, “Senior Zuo Ming, these four fey storage boxes contain the Dead Decay Earthworms. The Dead Decay Earthworms can take apart the corpses of the dead spirits and absorb their death aura. Open one of the fey storage boxes and distribute the Dead Decay Earthworms within so they can handle the corpses of dead spirits.
“As for the remaining three fey storage boxes of Dead Decay Earthworms, make sure that every Radiance Federation soldier receives the Dead Decay Earthworm during the changing of shifts. Then, we can see if the Dead Decay Earthworms can make an actual impact!”
Zuo Ming could not stop his cheeks from spreading with delight. Lin Yuan was really here to provide them with whatever they needed!
The most urgent issue for the Radiance Federation’s troops was to deal with the corpses of the dead spirits and lower the concentration of death aura in the air.
At first, Zuo Ming had not intended to report this matter to Lin Yuan.
Yet, without him needing to do so, Lin Yuan had already brought him the solution in the form of the fey known as the Dead Decay Earthworm.
Even if the Dead Decay Earthworms could not fully fix the issue, they would definitely be able to help take some of the heat off. This would make things easier for the Radiance Federation’s troops and increase their battle endurance.
Zuo Ming immediately sent his men to distribute the Dead Decay Earthworms as per Lin Yuan’s orders.
Once the first Silver fey storage box was delivered to the battleground, its contents were poured out.
Zuo Ming had asked Lin Yuan and confirmed that the Corpse-Consuming Vines would not harm the Dead Decay Earthworms. This set his worries at ease. If the Corpse-Consuming Vines would also attack the Dead Decay Earthworms, the Dead Decay Earthworms would not have the time to consume the dead spirit corpses before they were gobbled up by the Corpse-Consuming Vines!
Lin Yuan was much more anxious than Zuo Ming. Zuo Ming was only hoping that the Dead Decay Earthworms would be able to alleviate some of the pressure, while Lin Yuan was hoping that they would lead to a miracle.
This would free up the Radiance Federation’s Creation Masters and the army of Hundred Questions Beasts so they could move on to addressing other issues. They would no longer need to continue researching the feys that could digest dead spirit corpses and absorb death aura!
The Dead Decay Earthworm did not feel hunger or fullness. As long as there was food, it would begin eating and digesting.
These Dead Decay Earthworms had only just been born from being cut from other Dead Decay Earthworms. Thus, they could not even be considered feys.
When the Dead Decay Earthworms made contact with the dead spirit corpses, they immediately sprung into action and chomped on the dead spirit corpses while they crawled around.
Although it was difficult for the Dead Decay Earthworms to make headway in the ocean of dead spirits at first, once they absorbed some death aura and slowly grew stronger, they were eventually able to use their sharp teeth to break apart the dead spirits’ bodies and move through the sea of dead spirits.
The Dead Decay Earthworms were not picky. Any part of the dead spirits’ body that contained death aura would become part of their meal.
When the Dead Decay Earthworms were sent into the battleground, Lin Yuan instructed Zuo Ming to send out the order for the Radiance Federation’s troops to cut the Dead Decay Earthworms once they grew longer than 15 centimeters so they could produce even more of the Dead Decay Earthworms!
As the Dead Spirits Wells continued to spew dead spirits, many Dead Decay Earthworms would be killed. They might also be accidentally killed when the humans were fighting with the dead spirits.
However, as the Radiance Federation’s troops enabled the Dead Decay Earthworms to reproduce, the Dead Decay Earthworms’ numbers would not shrink but would grow. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝑚
The Dead Decay Earthworms could absorb some of the death aura in the air but not a significant quantity of it.
Nonetheless, this flaw did not warrant criticism as the death aura in the environment would quickly be fully absorbed due to the sheer quantity of the Dead Decay Earthworms.
With the Dead Decay Earthworms consuming the death aura from the dead spirits crisis, no more death aura was released from the Dead Decay Earthworms into the air.
Lin Yuan waited and watched the Dead Spirits Wells for an entire day.
Eventually, he concluded that the Dead Decay Earthworms would be able to fully handle the task of clearing the dead spirit corpses and suppressing the death aura.
Moreover, the Dead Decay Earthworms could also be linked to the Corpse-Consuming Vines.
The Dead Decay Earthworms would build nests under the Corpse-Consuming Vines and use their roots to hide from the dead spirits.
The Dead Decay Earthworms’ by-products would fertilize the Corpse-Consuming Vines and increase the speed of their growth.
Even if many powerful dead spirits burst forth from the Dead Spirits Wells and damaged the line of defense comprising of the Dead Decay Earthworms and Corpse-Consuming Vines, all they needed to do was spread some of the Corpse-Consuming Vines’ seeds and release some of the Dead Decay Earthworms.
As the Corpse-Consuming Vines killed and consumed the dead spirits, they produced fruits that were full of seeds. All the Radiance Federation’s troops needed to do was pluck these fruits and gather them before drying them. When the dried fruits were crushed, they would be able to attain a large amount of seeds.
At that moment, Lin Yuan could finally relax.
After a day of observation, Lin Yuan noticed many urgent problems that needed to be solved.
One of these issues was the healing. Another important issue was the increase of the Radiance Federation’s troops’ power.
Lin Yuan intended to invest some of his resources into the Radiance Federation’s troops so they could become stronger as quickly as possible.
He would tackle the dead spirits crisis by fueling war with warfare.
Now that he had come to this decision, Lin Yuan bid goodbye to Zuo Ming before he went to check the other Dead Spirits Wells.
Due to the overwhelming number of dead spirits that had burst through the metal-type stone boards, the Radiance Federation had built an additional 137 Dead Spirits Wells. 130 of them had been built instantly, while the other seven had been after a time lag as the eruption of dead spirits had been too powerful, and the Land Imps had been unable to build them instantly. This delay had resulted in substantial damages.
Luckily, the experts had sealed off these areas in advance. Otherwise, the consequences would have been dire.
This combat result exceeded Lin Yuan’s expectations as it protected most of the Radiance Federation’s citizens.
Lin Yuan investigated all the Dead Spirits Wells around the Royal Capital and distributed all of the Dead Decay Earthworms.
The other cities also received urgent deliveries of the Dead Decay Earthworms from Ostrich Logistics.
The Dead Decay Earthworms were immediately sent into battle once they were nurtured.
When Lin Yuan was done with his investigation, he reported all his findings to the Moon Empress.
He now ascertained the subsequent research direction for the Radiance Federation’s Creation Masters.
Once Lin Yuan was done telling the Moon Empress about the situation, he gave her three Diamond fey storage boxes.
“Master, the resources in these three Diamond fey storage boxes will be able to help spirit qi professionals increase their power. The troops who are fighting the dead spirits all volunteered for the job. All of them answered the call to enter the battle.
“I hope that these resources can reach these troops and help them increase their power as quickly as possible, thereby increasing the power of the Radiance Federation. We will strengthen them via the method of fueling war with warfare!
“From now on, I will continue to supply them with resources. I suggest that we come up with a comprehensive reward and punishment system. Those who do well will receive high-quality feys. These troops deserve a good future for their willingness to give their all in protecting this world.”
The Moon Empress could not help but gulp twice when she heard what Lin Yuan said.
She lapsed into momentary silence when she saw the three Diamond fey storage boxes full of resources that Lin Yuan was holding out.
The Moon Empress was once again stupefied by the resources that Lin Yuan possessed.
If these resources were given to the Radiance Federation’s troops on the frontlines of battling the dead spirits, they would grow stronger rapidly.
This would not only prevent the Radiance Federation’s army from shrinking but would also raise their motivation.
