Chapter 18: Sponging Off Others (Seeking Red Envelopes)

  When the old steward Xiao Hong and several young ladies arrived at the city gate, they saw the corpses of the Karu army all over the ground, as well as those dark-cloaked elven archers and the beastmen infantry who had already torn off their cloaks. Only then did they believe that they had really defeated the Karu army.

  At this time, Xiao Yu was directing the beastman soldiers to collect the bodies of the dead beastmen and ordered Long Hui to gather the civilians in the city to clean up the battlefield, stripping the Kalu army soldiers of their weapons and armor.

  Then drag all these corpses out and find a big pit to cremate and bury them, so as not to cause an epidemic.

  "With these scrap armors, we should be able to refashion equipment for a hundred beastman infantrymen. Having equipment makes us strong; without it, we're nothing. Although these demon beast soldiers are excellent, there are too few of them, so we must get the equipment ready and implement a thorough elite soldier strategy."

  Xiao Yu was pondering these follow-up matters, and also worrying about the development of the future. The previous money had all been spent, and now helping the Spirit Archer buy equipment and replace arrows would require a large sum of money, but this money had not yet been settled, and it was unknown whose pocket it was in.

  The outcome of this battle was extremely brilliant, not only did they defeat the Calamity Army, but more importantly, through this battle, the levels of these beastmen soldiers and elven archers were greatly increased.

  The beastman soldiers have all reached level 2, with more than fifty of them reaching level 3 and possessing the Berserk skill.

  The Elf archers have basically reached level 2, and a dozen or so have reached level 3, acquiring the accurate shooting skill. Due to this siege warfare, archers are easier to harvest experience, so they level up quickly.

  Grom and Tyrant both reached level 8, Xiao Yu upgraded Grom's Gale Step to level 2, increasing his movement speed to 100%. He chose to upgrade Gale Step instead of Invincible Slash because he knew that the Sword Saint might encounter even stronger opponents in the future. A faster Gale Step would allow him to be more agile and have a stronger overall combat ability.

  Theland then upgraded the Scorching Arrow to level 3, reaching its maximum level. With this, the power of the Scorching Arrow became even greater, and one arrow could shoot a large hole in a hard castle wall. As Theland's level increased later on, his attack intensity grew stronger and stronger, and this one arrow could even blast open the city gate.

  Xiao Yu himself also reached level 5 due to this successful defensive battle, with his commander having made great contributions.

  This made Xiao Yu excited, he quickly allocated the 20 basic attribute points to Strength 8 points, Agility 8 points, and Endurance 6 points.

  In this way, Xiao Yu's overall physical fitness can also be comparable to that of ordinary soldiers. In the past, his physique was absolutely only a weak scholar.

  With four more skill points, Xiao Yu upgraded his Mortal Strike to level 3 and maxed it out, then upgraded his Invincible Slash to level 4. Now, his Invincible Slash was even higher than Jian Wang's, whose Invincible Slash was only at level 3.

  However, his strength was not as great as the Sword Saint's, and his agility was not as high as the Sword Saint's. Even with higher-level skills, they did not have the same power as when used by the Sword Saint.

  Although there were such rich gains, the Warcraft troops also suffered some losses. Eight beastmen soldiers who went to defend the city gate died, seven were seriously injured, and the rest were lightly injured.

  This is mainly the result of the opponent's magician's damage. The magician in this era is equivalent to a mobile heavy firepower, similar to a self-propelled artillery, and once it is launched, the consequences are extremely severe.

  Fortunately, Thailand was able to suppress the magician in time. Otherwise, Xiao Yu's learning of the method of the 300 Spartans might not have worked.

  This also made Xiao Yu pay more attention to the mages of this world. If it were a warrior, the Sword Saint could handle it without any problem, but for mages, under the protection of so many guards and with long-range attacks, the Sword Saint found it very difficult to kill them.

  The fairy tribe's soldier also fell this time, mainly because during the chaos of the magician releasing magic, an enemy soldier rushed over and killed a fairy archer with one sword.

  The Elf Archer's low defense and extremely fragile close combat ability are also a great headache for Xiao Yu.

  They must get another batch of money over as soon as possible to upgrade their armor.

  Xiao Yu is now short of money, but not short of merit points. Through this defensive battle, Xiao Yu gained more than 5,000 merit points and directly reached the rank of Sergeant.

  Reached the rank of Sergeant, which means that another base can be summoned again, making Xiao Yu very excited.

  The third base, Xiao Yu prepared to choose the human base. Having seen the power of the opposing mage, Xiao Yu was very much looking forward to having his own mage.

  This game system can quickly summon four bases, but if one of the bases is to be upgraded to level 2 or 3, it is extremely difficult.

  Xiao Yu had thought about it before, if he upgraded to level 2, summoning the Mountain Giant of the Spirit Tribe would be even more powerful. However, that required a military rank of Colonel, in order to upgrade one of his bases to level 2. In other words, Xiao Yu must first establish four bases, and only then could he upgrade one of them to level 2.

  "Xiao Yu, is this really something you've done? Have you truly defeated Karu and defended your territory?" Big Sister Qi Lin walked over, her face filled with an expression of extreme joy to the point of tears.

  She has seen her little brother grow up since he was a kid, and now he's finally made it. How can she not be excited?

  "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I've grown up now, I'm a real man now. I'll protect you all and inherit Father's legacy, making Lion King Ridge a powerful dukedom." Xiao Yu declared with a determined look on his face, vowing to work hard from now on.

  "Xiao Yu, you've grown up, big sister is so happy." Qi Yin rushed over and hugged Xiao Yu in her arms just like when she was a little girl.

  Xiao Yu couldn't possibly refuse such tenderness that was delivered to her doorstep, so she pretended to be tearfully emotional and threw herself into Qi Jin's arms. In reality, however, her brain was preoccupied with rubbing against Qi Jin's full chest, and before she knew it, things had already progressed to a certain point.

  Qī Yín was married into the Xiao family at seventeen, when Xiao Yu was only six years old and full of energy. At that time, Qī Yín also liked Xiao Yu very much, and even after her husband's death, she let Xiao Yu sleep in her room for a long time.

  Xiao Yu's mother had also passed away early, so Qi Yin had a bit of a maternal flavor to her, which was why Xiao Yu relied on Qi Yin a lot.

  When Xiao Yu grew up a bit, he understood the affairs between men and women, and began to flirt with girls everywhere. He had also made indecent proposals to Qi Qin before.

  Qī Yīn because of excessive doting on Xiao Yu, did not blame him too much, only subtly refused.

  Xiao Yu has reverence and affection for her sister-in-law in her heart, so she doesn't have excessive demands. If Yu is consumed by passion, he can just go out and find another woman to satisfy himself.

  But it's hard to avoid thinking of this sister-in-law's image in my mind.

  Apart from Da Sao, the other sisters-in-law had a higher proportion of teasing. Er Sao was slightly better, having married in earlier and being closer to Xiao Yu, but San Sao, Si Sao, and Wu Sao were all very young, not much older than him, and at that age of youthful impulsiveness, he would often sneak peeks at them while they bathed.

  The other sisters-in-law also came over at this time, and their gaze towards Xiao Yu had greatly changed.

  Only Fourth Sister Xue Xia knew that Xiao Yu was still the same as before, standing aside with a cold eye. Xiao Yu's face was excited, as if he had reformed and become a new person, hugging Eldest Sister, then Second Sister, Third Sister, hugging them tightly, his hands not honest, grabbing their buttocks or thighs.

  Xiao Yu's second sister-in-law, Wen Jingxian, was also a talented woman with some reputation in the imperial capital. Later, she somehow got fooled by Xiao Yu's second brother. The second sister-in-law's name is Xue Han, her figure is slender and elegant, with a refined and delicate body, giving off a strong literary aura. Her face rarely has a smile, but it's different from Xue Xiang's kind of brutal coldness, carrying a temperament similar to that of Li Qingzhao, the historical beauty Xiao Yu admired in his past life.

  When Xiao Yu was young, her relationship with Er Sao (second aunt) was still quite good. Although Er Sao had a cold temperament and didn't often smile, she liked children at that time. However, as Xiao Yu grew up, her actions made Xue Han extremely angry, causing them to gradually drift apart from each other. The direct cause of this was an incident where Xiao Yu curiously stole Er Sao's bra.

  Xiao Yu hugged Er Sao, and Xue Han only slightly resisted at first. However, seeing Xiao Yu's sincere and reformed appearance, she didn't refuse. But when Xiao Yu pinched her buttocks hard, Er Sao almost went crazy. If it weren't for the many civilians and soldiers present, Er Sao would have kicked him long ago. Don't think that scholars won't fight; they can be ruthless. In the past, Xiao Yu suffered more beatings from Er Sao than Si Sao Xue Xia did.

  She was slender and elegant, and Xiao Yu suddenly hugged her tightly. Kamina was a European with blonde hair and blue eyes, extremely tall and fiery, with an open personality. Her face always had an enchanting smile, giving off a Madonna-like aura that Xiao Yu had seen before in his past life.

  Kamina's height was half a head taller than Xiao Yu, so Xiao Yu could only burrow into her arms, his head rubbing fiercely against the twin peaks, and taking advantage of no one noticing, he suddenly had an outburst of lust and secretly bit down on her nipple.

  Kamina's smile suddenly stiffened, but she made a subtle move, her long and sturdy thighs lightly lifted, and heavily collided with Xiao Yu's abdomen.

  Xiao Yu let out a muffled grunt, fortunately his physical body had been upgraded and improved, if it was still his old body, he would probably have collapsed immediately.

  It seems that none of these sisters-in-law are easy to get along with.

  Xiao Yu wanted to go hug Wu Jie Xiwen again, but was abruptly stopped by Si Jie Xue Sha, who frowned and stood in front of him with her hand on the hilt of her sword. Xiao Yu could only smile awkwardly and give up.

  Days are still long, will you be afraid of no chance later? Xiao Yu thought proudly in her heart.
