The leveling of the armories and blacksmiths was a spectacular sight.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Hundreds of golden upgrade beams landed on the ground, engulfing the western part of the territory in golden light.

Lin Dachui and the other blacksmiths were bathed in golden light as their forging experience skyrocketed.

Forging 100! Forging 100! Forging 100!

….

Moments later, 197 people advanced to Intermediate Class.

Lin Dachui and his trusted aides, who were originally intermediate blacksmiths, followed closely behind and successfully advanced to advanced blacksmiths.

They were considered back-end workers and had a higher rate of advancement than the soldiers. As long as the conditions were right, they would be able to conquer all obstacles and quickly reach the other side.

“My lord, the armory might still need some time.” Lin Dachui, who was already an Advanced Blacksmith, had a different aura. When he spoke, his voice had a strong and sturdy quality to it, similar to the voice of Mordekaiser from League of Legends.

“Rascal, you still dare play hints with me?” Lin Ye rolled his eyes. He naturally understood the meaning behind Lin Dachui’s words.

When the bunker was upgraded to Level 5, it had the ability to buy acceleration scrolls on a pay-to-win basis.

They had previously seen how he upgraded the bunker and the breeding field. Naturally, they wanted to enjoy the same treatment.

However, he glanced at the upgrade time of the Armory and immediately dismissed that idea.

Different from people who leveled rapidly, even with the upgrade scrolls, the armories would take at least two hours.

If every armory used an acceleration scroll, 100 armories would cost 200,000 Zombie Souls. The cost was too high.

He could only lament inwardly for not being rich enough.

Next time, he will definitely do it next time!

“Don’t even think about it. I’ll give you 10 of it, just enough to form a Level 3 Armory. Here, this is 20,000 Zombie Souls. After they are combined into a Level 3 Armory, I’ll leave it to you and your trusted subordinates to manage it.”

Lin Ye threw out a large amount of Zombie Souls and instructed, “Give priority to the 56 people who have yet to obtain any Tier 3 equipment and forge the Tier 3 equipment using the blueprints given for free by the Level 3 Armory.”

“No problem. However, my lord, I can only forge five sets a day using the free blueprints. You will have to find more blueprints for the high-tier equipment as soon as possible.”

“Mm,” Lin Ye replied. He waved his hand and asked Lin Dachui to upgrade the Level 3 Armory and forge the equipment.

He glanced at Luo Feng and the others from the corner of his eye. They were also at the final stage before their advancement.

Perhaps they would become the strongest Class 3 soldiers in the entire territory in less than five minutes.

As for the other Class 2 soldiers, they had a bright future.

Currently, the training blueprints that he could choose from were Class 2 Gladiators and Class 2 Tiger Hunting Blade Guards.

There were 100 blueprints for Class 2 Gladiators and 15 for Class 2 Tiger Hunting Blade Guards.

115 blueprints for 155 Class 2 elites. The difference in numbers was not too big.

It would only take half a cycle for the blueprints to be refreshed. Just that amount was not a big deal.

After thinking this through, Lin Ye threw out another 20,000 Zombie Souls and the barracks upgrade scroll, letting Lin One and his native workers upgrade the barracks.

He handled all the trivial matters well.

Lin Ye took out the last two attributeless Class 4 Upgrade Scrolls and looked at the two highest-ranked people present.

Ranger Adelia and Light Priest Gran.

Both of them were at the peak of Class 3, especially Adelia. After consuming the Level 4 Body Strengthening Pill, she was half a foot inside Class 4.

As long as the venom patches on her arm were healed, there was a high chance that she would be able to transform and officially advance to Class 4.

With this thought in mind, he waved at Gran.

“My lord, I’m willing to serve you.”

With a smile on his face, Gran walked towards the platform.

Along the way, a divine power of light appeared in his palm and he smoothed the creases on his clothes.

When he arrived in front of Lin Ye, he bowed humbly as a form of respect.

“Other loyalist soldiers are seeking benefits for themselves. What about you?”

Lin Ye stared at him strangely. “You pledged your loyalty to me for no reason last night and now you’re standing aside like it doesn’t matter?”

“Would the lord like to hear the truth or the lie?” Gran smiled.

“Don’t play with your words. Tell me both at once.” Lin Ye was speechless. What was wrong with these people?

“If you say so.”

Priest Gran sighed. “The truth is that the lord’s unparalleled luck has convinced me. As for the lie… I believe in the lord’s promise that even if I don’t ask, you will still give me a Class 4 Upgrade Scroll.”

“You got it the wrong way.”

Lin Ye cast a sidelong glance at him. If not for the fact that this fellow’s loyalty had reached 100%, he would really suspect that he had another motive.

His actions were too abnormal!

“But all I said was the truth.” Gran smiled bitterly. With regards to the Nine-Colored Divine Light, he didn’t dare to mention it. If word got out, it would bring more trouble to his lord so it would be even better if others didn’t know.

“Forget it, I can’t be bothered with you. Just answer me this.”

Lin Ye took out one of the attributeless Class 4 Upgrade Scrolls. “If I give you one, what are the chances of you breaking through to Class 4?”

He still had to count on this guy to remove Adelia’s corpse poison.

After all, as long as Gran became a Class 4 Light Priest, the purification ability of his Sacred Healing would increase drastically and it would be enough to cleanse all the corpse poison.

After he detoxified the corpse poison, Adelia might even be able to benefit from this misfortune and breakthrough independently, saving him from having to use another Class 4 attributeless upgrade scroll.

Whether it was given to Luo Feng and the other 2 or Tru, he would have another chance to create another Class 4 elite.

“I’m 99% sure that I can do it. I’ve been at the peak of Class 3 for decades and am just short of one step. If not for the lack of resources in the underworld and the oppression by the archbishop, I would have been a Class 6 and 7 Light Priest by now.” Gran smiled bitterly.

Evidently, internal strifes were everywhere. The Church of Light was no exception.

Of course, Lin Ye had no interest in his past. Hearing that he was 99% confident that he could make it, he couldn’t help but smile.

He looked at Gran and said calmly, “No matter what your objective is, you have ultimately given your loyalty to me. My attitude towards my loyal citizens is the same. For the time being, no equipment related to the Priest class has been dropped. Take this Class 4 Attributeless Upgrade Scroll as compensation. Do you have anything else you want?”

Accepting the Class 4 attributeless upgrade scroll from Lin Ye, even the usually elegant and easy-going Gran was a little excited at this moment.

He clutched onto the upgrade scroll tightly as something flashed across his mind. He hurriedly said, “My lord, I’m saying if, if we find the Elevation Hall of the four major sacred halls tomorrow, may I humbly request for a chance to enter said hall?”

“You may.” Lin Ye nodded.

He obtained quite a lot of information about the Sacred Halls from Su Yu.

For every Sacred Temple that descended, there would be 10 chances each hour, meaning that there were 10 spots.

The Elevation Hall of the Sacred Temple was aimed at providing enlightenment within one’s profession. It could elevate one’s foundations.

As for what would be elevated, he still had no idea.

However, Gran who would be a Class 4 Light Priest by then should gain quite a lot from it.

“Thank you, my lord!” Gran bowed deeply.

Then, under the gazes of Lin Ye and the others, he tore open the Class 4 attributeless upgrade scroll.

Boom!

A beam of red light as thick as a water bucket descended from the sky. The energy of the beam of light was much stronger than what Luo Feng and the other two combined experienced.

Priest Gran bathed in it, his robes fluttering in the wind. A large number of divine light particles gathered from the void and landed on his body.

From afar, he looked like a giant white light bulb, frighteningly bright.

Whoosh—

Suddenly, the incandescent light bulb bloomed beautifully like a flower.

The next moment, countless light particles followed the wind and spread over the entire camp.

Everyone present seemed to be showered by the rain of life. The fatigue and soreness on their bodies were all swept away..
