Chapter 471: Chapter 471: First put forward twenty

"Beastman Island’s warning, huh? Since that’s the case, let’s have a fight then. As long as a Demigod from the Beastman Empire doesn’t take the field directly, we really have nothing to worry about. I believe the Beastman Empire won’t care too much about this overseas enclave either."

Fang Jie’s attitude towards the Beastman Empire at the moment was that it was fine as long as they didn’t provoke them too fiercely.

As for their Demigods, they absolutely wouldn’t act rashly, as these are the foundation of a nation.

It’s like the situation between the New Moon Kingdom and the Blue Sand Kingdom before. Although both kingdoms had Legendaries, they usually wouldn’t act on a whim. If it hadn’t reached the point of their capital cities being attacked, these people definitely wouldn’t have shown up.

Although Fang Jie frequently deployed Legendary Experts now, one reason was that his enemies were also of that level, and another reason was that he simply had too many Legendaries under his command.

One or two simply couldn’t be considered as the foundation, so he could afford to use them indiscriminately.

But it’s different with Demigods; such powerful beings were too rare. Even the Beastman Empire probably didn’t have many. At most one or two, and it wouldn’t be unusual even if there was only one.

A Demigod Expert on their own is a powerful force and doesn’t need to attach themselves to others.

Unless it’s something like a Lord training their troops directly. Even then, unless it’s a special being, the loyalty probably wouldn’t be too high.

In fact, under normal circumstances, Lords wouldn’t train their subordinates to the Demigod Level.

They were worried that once some subordinates reached Demigod status, they would often leave after repaying their debts.

Some special races, like Demons or Vampires, would probably rebel immediately once they reached the Demigod Level. These races were really not good at controlling their subordinates.

Even with the Undead Race, Fang Jie had also learned some information. If the subordinates’ troop level reached Demigod Level and their own strength couldn’t suppress the other party, there was a certain chance they would flee.

So now, while Fang Jie was looking for ways to help his subordinates advance, he didn’t dare to mess around.

However, since there was no such method available yet, Fang Jie had nothing to worry about.

At this time, Qin Lan suddenly spoke up, "Wait a minute, there’s no need to go to war with them. Next, we need to conquer the Sea Alliance, so it’s not good to be all tense. What we need is to restrain their Strength."

"Do you have a plan?" Fang Jie was puzzled.

Qin Lan, pointing at the map of the opponent’s islands, said, "Their military Strength is inferior to ours, but they always think they have more Legendaries than us. That’s the reason they dare to make a move."

"If they find out that we also have no shortage of Legendaries, then they won’t dare to take the risk."

Fang Jie nodded, "That’s right. If the loss is too great, their backers would be the first to not let them off."

This is the downside for those who rely on major forces. Although they can enjoy many benefits from major powers, they’re also strictly restricted. Once they are disobedient or unsatisfactory, their backers may press down on them any time.

"So at that time, they can only use their military Strength to confront us and wouldn’t dare to move rashly. At this moment, if other large islands experience attacks and everything is done according to procedure, they’ll most likely not intervene."

Fang Jie understood; this was preparation for the upcoming conquest of new islands by the Dark Night Elves and the Human Faction.

But on second thought, fighting them really wouldn’t be very useful.

Although he was not sure if they had any Territory, their main force was mostly not from the Beastman Empire, but it was almost the same. Even if they occupied the Territory, their development speed would not surpass his.

If there were no benefits and delaying time would allow him to widen the gap between them, then why fight?

Fang Jie had many subordinates who had obtained the Legend Certificate, all of whom were in training. For a while, Fang Jie didn’t need to worry about getting more Legend Certificates.

"So the question is, just how many Legendaries should we deploy?"

Qin Lan looked at Fang Jie, "You are the Lord; such matters are naturally for you to decide."

Frowning in contemplation, Fang Jie considered the top two big islands, each openly having a dozen or so Legendary Experts. But whether there were more and how many in secret, Fang Jie did not know.

But one thing was for sure: even if there were, they definitely wouldn’t exceed twenty.

To restrain the two large islands simultaneously and not let them think he was too threatening—to prevent them from contacting their Imperial backers and drawing the attention of the two Empires too early—he had to find a balance.

"Let’s just show twenty for now," Fang Jie finally said.

"Twenty is neither too many nor too few. When added to their hidden Strength, it should be roughly similar. This way, they’ll believe that even if we are Stronger than them, it only by a small margin, and they can hold their own."

"At the same time, our Strength can match the total of all the Legendaries openly present on the two top islands. Thus, the open Strength must all be brought out to confront us."

"Plus, considering the relationship between the two, what follows will then be a three-way standoff."

After carefully considering for a moment, Qin Lan agreed, "This number works. If we win over other islands, the visible Strength still has to be greater than ours, but this force will absolutely ensure that they dare not act rashly."

In terms of military Strength, they were far superior to the two islands.

The two islands didn’t have a foundation on land, having only the Empire they relied on behind them.

But their Quisha Island was different, being foreign from the start and having a foundation on land. This was not a secret among the Sea Alliance, so in their eyes, Quisha Island was definitely harboring some hidden Strength.

Since Qin Lan didn’t see any problem, there likely wasn’t one. Fang Jie trusted Qin Lan’s judgement immensely in these matters; after all, he was not as skilled as Qin Lan, who was originally an Elite.

He was constantly learning, but Qin Lan was also learning, and probably learned even more in this area than he did.

After all, most of Fang Jie’s time was actually spent on Magic study.

"Then that’s what we’ll do. Fang Hao, go and organize the army, and then select some people to show them."

Fang Hao nodded quickly and started preparing. Including himself, exactly twenty Legendaries were chosen to be exposed. Some strong, some weak, they varied in type.

They couldn’t all be very strong or all weak; only then would it seem genuine.
