Chapter 286: Returning to Dragon Nation, Harvest Appraisal

The sprite running in the sky while dragging the seven-colored light band was a “Rainbow Deer”.

It was another form different from the Thundering Deer pathway.

Of course, the Rainbow Deer that could fill half the sky with the seven-colored light ribbons was definitely at Crown-level. It should have completed the fourth and fifth stages of evolution.

It was too far away. Even with “Sprite Commandeering: vision sharing”, Su Hao couldn’t see the details.

Needless to say, there weren’t many sprites around in the interface map—after all, Dumb Unicorn had already lured the Heavenly King of Super Ugliness out of the main battlefield.

With the appearance of the two Crown Sprites, the battle immediately calmed down a lot.

From Ghost City, many sprites flew out, or rushed out, and were divided into two distinct camps along with their Sprite Trainers.

They faced each other in the sky above Ghost City.

On one side, led by the Jade Bone Dragon, were several monarch rank Gargoyle Dragons.

On the other side, with the Rainbow Deer as the leader, there were a variety of sprites, with even more monarch ranks.

Trading Puppet, Fiery Bird, Sky Dragon, and so on!

At the same time, a series of signal bullets flew into the sky and exploded, forming different symbols.

It was.. a signal for them to retreat.

At this point, Dumb Unicorn was still taking a detour. Butterfly and Dazed Crow had already been summoned back by Su Hao. Su Hao watched from afar for a while. “I’ll leave the battle to the big bosses.”

..

Stone Elephant Nation, at the island where the entrance was located.

At this point, Sprite Trainers wearing the uniform of the Union’s Command Department were everywhere.

There were asian, white, and black people. These Sprite Trainers had come from all over the world.

But they all were clearly part of the Union.

The battle department of the Union was the department in charge of ‘battle against the other alien tribe’. Theoretically, the Whale Gate battle area also belonged to the battle department of the Union.

But in reality, it was Dragon Nation and Whale Island University that were in control.

And a small nation like the Stone Elephant Nation was unable to deal with the alien tribe, so the Union’s Command Department took full control.

The exploration of Ghost City had also ended.

Su Hao stayed on the island for the time being and let Bright Night Spirit treat the injured sprites.

Unfortunately, the amount of milk they had right now was too low. At a glance, their bodies were all empty.

“I wonder how many people didn’t return?”

He searched everywhere, but the island right now was in a mess. From time to time, transport planes would send Sprite Trainers and soldiers over, and he only saw a few familiar faces.

On the second day, he saw Senior Wu returning from the Ghost City area.

In the tent.

Senior Wu gulped down a bottle of water. His hair was still neat, but his eyes were a little tired.

Seeing this, Su Hao still suppressed his desire to ask about the situation. He said goodbye to Senior Wu and was about to leave the tent.

“You want to ask about the battle situation, right? Just ask, there’s no need to be so polite with your senior.”

Senior Wu opened another bottle of water and poured it directly on his face. After washing his face, he summoned a third-line water-element sprite and shook off the moisture. Then, he used the comb he carried with him to comb his hair and straighten his collar.

Then, he said, “The battle situation is alright. Thanks to the value placed on Ghost City by the Union, there are already many Heavenly Kings present, so they managed to withstand the Gargoyle Tribe’s sudden attack.”

“But in the end, we didn’t expect an alien tribe to suddenly appear. Unfortunately, some of our Sprite Trainers had to sacrifice. Two Sprite Trainers and eight sprites from Dragon Nation died in battle.”

“Who, who were the Sprite Trainers?”

“One is a Sprite Trainer from the Turtle Breath River in the north, and the other is.. a student who graduated from Dragon City University two years ago.”

None of them were people he knew. Su Hao felt relieved.

Although this feeling wasn’t very respectful to the dead.

Perhaps it was because he had experienced a lot, Senior Wu didn’t have a sad look on his face. He patted his shoulder and said, “I heard that you’ve made great contributions this time.”

“Huh?”

“You lured away a tribe’s Heavenly King, and many people saw it. When I first found out, I was almost scared to death. If anything happens to you, I’m afraid I’ll be beaten to death by my teacher.”

I think you’re just afraid of being slapped, Senior.

Despite his complaints, Su Hao’s heart still warmed.

Then, he heard Senior Wu say, “Knowing that you can run so well, I don’t have anything to worry about in the future.”

“..”

He then heard Senior Wu talk about the situation in Ghost City and the experts sent by the Union here.

When he heard that two Crown-level experts had come, Su Hao thought for a moment and asked, “Senior, even if the Gargoyle Tribe is one of the stronger alien tribes, we still have an advantage, right?”

Before leaving, he saw that the reinforcements from the Union seemed stronger than the army of the Gargoyle Tribe.

But.. they were still fighting, even now.

“You want to ask, why don’t we just end it quickly?”

Senior Wu paused and said, “With the power of the Union, destroying three to five tribes is naturally not difficult. With just the Sprite Trainers from our Dragon Nation, we’re able to do it, but..”

“Right now, the various alien tribes aren’t harmonious, and there are even wars between them. But if we destroy one or two tribes, we might be able to weaken the enemy by a little, but it may cause the various tribes to unite and that could be a real danger.”

“Therefore, the strategic general direction of the Union is to take it at a steady pace, to build high walls, accumulate strength, and slowly eliminate the enemy. The speed at which we nurture sprites and nurture Heavenly King-level Sprite Trainers is faster than the alien tribes. So there’s no need to immediately go off to war with the alien tribes. Pretending to be weak and accumulating strength is the smart thing to do right now.”

“Of course, we can’t launch a full on attack, but killing one or two of their Heavenly Kings isn’t a big problem.”

The problem was that they weren’t so easy to kill.

After hearing the news from Senior Wu, Su Hao felt much more relieved.

Currently, the Ghost City Battle Area was still in a standoff as small-scale battles played out.

But it had nothing to do with them anymore. Even if The Dragon Nation wanted to explore more of the Ghost City in the future, they would only send out real elites or big bosses.

The Sprite Trainers explorers from the various countries also left one after another.

On the third day after returning from Ghost City, Su Hao also prepared to return.

A strong wind blew on the wings of the large transport plane. Su Hao, who only had a medium-sized backpack hanging on the slope of the cabin door, looked back at the busy base and stepped into the cabin.

Butterfly was still the size of a palm. It laid on top of his head listlessly.

The dumb crow with sparse feathers followed behind.

Big Fat Bear, Dumb Unicorn, and the Bright Night Spirit followed after Su Hao called out.

Yama Ghost King was already hiding in Su Hao’s shadow. Occasionally, a pair of eyes would appear in his shadow. When he looked a second time, it would disappear as if it had been an illusion..

Buzz ~ Buzz!

The transport plane set off. Its destination was neither Whale Island University nor Tiannan Province, but Dragon City.

The first batch of explorers like them needed to take inventory, evaluate, and organize their gains.. Originally, they should have done it directly on the island at the entrance, but the island had gradually been transformed into a military base.

So they were simply brought back to Dragon Nation.

..

Half a day later.

Dragon City, headquarters of the Association of Sprite Trainers.

Dozens of Sprite Trainers who had returned from overseas travel-worn arrived in a special car in an area filled with grand buildings.

This was the headquarters of the Association of Sprite Trainers in Dragon Nation. On the surface, this was the organization with the highest martial strength in Dragon Nation.

historical

Big bosses gathered here.

If Su Hao threw down a brick it would definitely hit someone.. Of course, only ordinary staff members would be hit by a falling brick.

At this moment, there were already several specialists waiting in a building in the headquarters specially responsible for item evaluation.

Even though the exploration had ended halfway, their group had more or less obtained some items.

There were precious materials that could be recognized at a glance, but most of them were materials that had never been heard of or seen before, or finished products.

Some of them might be able to let Dragon Nation’s Sprite Cultivation level take a big step forward.

“Beep..”

The transport trucks stopped one after another. An old specialist couldn’t wait to go forward and look at those especially big backpacks. They should be full of treasures.

He couldn’t wait to snatch it over.

“Hurry, hurry up!”
