Swamp Lord with an Intelligence System

Chapter 633: Chapter 270: Intel Update, Rapid Development

After Lear snapped back to reality, with a slight movement of his consciousness, the Power of Authority dispersed and directly enveloped the Hardwood Forest ahead.

In the next moment.

Roar~ The dragonflies suddenly turned their heads, emitting a low growl from their throats.

The raspy voice carried a hint of surprise, along with a few notes of a young calling for its mother.

Whoosh whoosh~

The wings on their backs, resembling those of flies, flapped powerfully, ascending into the sky, causing the surrounding trees to sway constantly from the airflow impact.

Four to five hundred dragonflies flew over Lear’s head, circling around him.

The scene appeared quite peculiar.

Lear could sense the feeling of closeness emanating from these unique creatures.

As the exclusive creatures of the swamp, dragonflies possessed an acute perception of the Master of Marshes.

This was precisely why they would nest in the Mire Swamp.

Lear’s spiritual power gently soothed these creatures, instructing them to settle in this Hardwood Forest and safeguard this area’s safety in the future.

He also warned them not to harm the residents of Weilu City.

Identifying this aspect was simple enough… accomplished through the Power of Faith.

It was quite effortless for dragonflies.

Moreover, these creatures required no enslavement; merely an exhibition of authority’s aura and they were ready to rush over…

With the appearance of the swamp’s master, these creatures would seamlessly become servants.

This was a mark imprinted within the soul and bloodline.

Lear effortlessly subdued these over five hundred Level 16 dragonflies.

A delightful feeling filled his heart.

The thrill of getting something for free was the best.

Thinking about it, his gaze shifted backward; this Hardwood Forest range was indeed somewhat small.

Hundreds of trees barely accommodated these dragonflies, let alone allowing them to reproduce offspring here.

Taking a deep breath, his consciousness flickered.

In the next moment, in many parts of the swamp, those solitary trees standing in the mud suddenly lifted with soil, soaring into the sky.

This scene resembled a mythological scene sculpted in a mural, where trees descended from the heavens, landing directly in the swamp, quietly rooting themselves.

The forest of hundreds of trees instantly increased to over two thousand trees.

Forming a dense, unseeable forest.

Lear finally nodded with satisfaction.

He instructed the dragonflies to nest here in the future, guarding this direction’s safety.

← In the west there is a fortress city serving as a barrier, ↓ the south now has dragonflies, increasing security, while there are still two directions without stationed armies.

In the future, he considers seeking several races to settle in the swamp, forming a natural barrier this way.

As the territory expanded, his need for ordinary armies diminished; previously, encountering dragonflies, he would bring them back to join the battle lineup.

Now there was not much of a feeling, wasn’t it just Level 16 troops… nothing extraordinary.

Having finished here, there is temporarily no trouble; the territory is developing steadily, requiring no intervention.

Time quietly crept to March 1st.

In the early hours, the intelligence system prompted refreshment again.

Lear, who had long been waiting, immediately confirmed with anticipation.

pieces of intelligence quickly refreshed…

[1. Due to a shift in the situation, a group of two thousand Wetland Lizard-men will pass through the → east 200 kilometers of shrubbery by noon on the 2nd. (2 Stars)]

[2. A group of Dark Night Elves, exhausted by the collapse of the Underworld, will briefly camp in the previous Barbarian Territory on the morning of the 3rd. (2 Stars)]

[3. Half a month ago, the Frost Kingdom broke through Griffin Empire’s eastern defenses, countless ice and snow troops approached the Griffin Empire Capital, and due to mass betrayal of army high commands, the ice and snow army took merely three days to breach the capital, leading to a week-long slaughter, most of the Griffin Empire’s royal family and high-level members killed, with the empire utterly defeated and fallen. (3 Stars)]

[4. Northern Territory’s flower, Princess of Lorand City—Firina Lorand, after killing the Beastman God and wielding its divine body as a cornerstone, ascended to extraordinary, personally led her army to annihilate millions of Beastman troops outside the city, with roses recklessly sprouting and flourishing on bodies, flesh turning to fertile soil, covering dozens of kilometers with roses.]

[The military and civilians of Lorand City respectfully hailed her as—Rose Empress.]

[She heard the news of Griffin Empire’s extinction and raised the Griffin Banner on the city walls, issuing orders to provinces… Lorand City still stands, calling everyone to join the resistance forces to rebuild the empire. (3 Stars)]

[5. A batch of plane integrations will occur in the wilderness, the first wave exceeding 30 planes, a massive surge of dimension plane creatures will arrive, even containing ancient mythological creatures. (3 Stars)]

This time’s intelligence refresh, although still lacking information above 4-star level, significantly increased in value.

Lear examined again from the beginning.

The first piece, Wetland Lizard-man sightings, and there’s over two thousand!

Evidently, the intelligence system understood him well.

Just finished upgrading the previous Wetland Lizard-men to full level 4-star, new blood arrives.

Now, the Cold-blooded Cavalry scale of 3700 is still insufficient, unable to fulfill territorial needs.

This two thousand personnel addition will make an immediate difference.

Total troop strength approaching 6000, immensely vital for territory security.

Moreover, the second 2-star intel was very promising… A batch of Dark Night Elves will temporarily stay in the Barbarian Territory.

This means increased numbers for two main troop types.

A bit of a delight.

However, upon seeing the third piece, Lear’s good mood diminished considerably, his gaze turned serious—

The Griffin Empire has been eradicated by the Frost Kingdom in the east?!!
