129: Conquer Africa!
Facing the menacing Ice Lion Legion, the Awakened of the Pyramid nation didn't dare to act rashly.
Among them, the strongest existence had only just advanced to High-Level Transcendent.
In the Ice Lion Legion, however, there was more than one existence at the Lord Realm!
The disparity in strength between the two sides was too great.
In just half a day, the Ice Lion Legion led by Xiong Ba and the other beasts firmly took control of the Pyramid Secret Realm.
Thinking that since they were already there, they might as well occupy the entire Egypt as well.
"Where is the Ice Bird?"
Chen Mo asked.
Among the Extraordinary Leaders he had sent to control the Pyramid Secret Realm earlier, Little Ice Bird was the only one nowhere to be seen.
"It is still searching for Extraordinary Spiritual Plants; most of these Spiritual Plants were discovered by the Ice Bird."
The Snow Treading Fox Leader answered truthfully.
One had to admit that the Ice Bird's professional capability was indeed outstanding.
Chen Mo nodded.
To earn contribution points to exchange for the Phoenix Spirit Parasol Tree Leaf in his hands, the Ice Bird had likely entered "Super Worker Bird" mode.
"Go and notify the various clans of the Great Snow Mountain to gather at the foot of Lion King Mountain tomorrow."
Chen Mo then said to the Snow Treading Fox Leader.
"It is time for the second round of the expansion war."
He prepared to conquer the entire Africa.
Chen Mo wanted to use the effect of [Lord Lion] to raise his Extraordinary Rank to the Peak King Realm!
The total area of Africa is approximately 30.22 million square kilometers.
Theoretically, after occupying the entire Africa, [Lord Lion] could provide him with 300,000 strands of liquid spiritual energy!
Whereas the limit of the King Realm was only 100,000 strands of liquid spiritual energy.
However, [Lord Lion] was only a blue-quality title after all, corresponding to the King Realm, so there was a high probability it would still be difficult to break through the major Realm.
Whether he could advance to the Realm above King, which is the Calamity Realm, the hope was slim.
Although the probability of advancement wasn't high, the panel would still give some decent rewards for reaching the Late Stage King Realm.
With Chen Mo's current strength, conquering the entire African continent was not a difficult task.
He had already reached the Middle Stage King Realm and no longer needed to worry too much.
There was nothing left that could withstand him.
He could just steamroll right through.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Hearing this, Xiong Ba and Bing Li both felt their blood boiling with excitement.
They knew—
The Ice Lion Kingdom was about to expand once again.
————————
The next day, the army of the Ice Lion Legion assembled once again.
The leaders of all the Extraordinary races were present.
Then, under Chen Mo's leadership, they began their path of conquest from south to north, following a circular route: Mozambique - South Africa - Central Africa - Algeria - Egypt.
To Chen Mo's surprise—
The process of conquering Mozambique was extremely smooth.
Cities where humans still resided actually took the initiative to open their gates and welcome the arrival of the Ice Lion Legion upon seeing them.
Many people even beat drums and gongs to celebrate the arrival of the Ice Lion Legion.
They could not wait to become a part of the Ice Lion Kingdom.
Since the Descent of the Great Snow Mountain Secret Realm, most cities in Mozambique had lost contact with each other.
Every city had become an isolated island, and the nation and government existed in name only.
Survivors in the cities had established a new order under the leadership of some Awakened, but they still lived extremely difficult lives under the threat of wild Extraordinary Creatures and the shortage of food resources.
Because they were neighbors with the Ice Lion Kingdom, they had naturally heard that humans in the Ice Lion Kingdom did not have to worry about their safety, so they were naturally desperate to join.
In the past month, many people had traveled thousands of miles trying to smuggle themselves into the Ice Lion Kingdom.
As for the Extraordinary Creatures that ruled as kings in the wild, after sensing the powerful aura of the Ice Lion King, they came one after another to surrender.
Any Extraordinary Creature with even a bit of a brain knew that this was an existence they absolutely could not afford to provoke.
As for those who were brainless or stubborn and attempted to resist, they were naturally easily taken down by the Ice Lion Legion.
Thus, with almost no combat experienced...
Chen Mo turned the former territory of Mozambique into a part of the Ice Lion Kingdom.
Of course, conquest was easy, but wanting the cities to develop again was not easy.
The core troops from the Great Snow Mountain were no longer enough.
If farms were to be established, the number of Frost Sheep would not be enough even if one Frost Sheep were assigned to each city.
Finally, Chen Mo decided to gather these survivors and centrally establish three major cities.
These major cities were all built in cities with high integrity and relatively complete infrastructure.
After a period of recovery and once the population and the number of Extraordinary Creatures increased, they could then go on to build new cities.
"Mother, this area will be handed over to you to govern in the future."
After conquering the former territory of Mozambique, Chen Mo spoke to Lion Mom.
"Roar?"
Lion Mom was originally munching away on roasted meat, but she was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.
Since the establishment of the Ice Lion Kingdom, her life had been very comfortable.
A mother's status rises with her son's.
As the biological mother of the Ice Lion King, no matter where she went, those Extraordinary Leaders of the Great Snow Mountain maintained a respectful attitude toward her.
So her favorite thing to do every day was "strolling the streets"; seeing other Extraordinary Creatures looking at her respectfully gave her a secret sense of satisfaction.
"Roar?" (Can I do it?)
Lion Mom herself was somewhat uncertain.
She still knew her own level.
Although her Extraordinary Rank had reached the Peak Extraordinary level thanks to the accumulation of divine medicine, she was completely ignorant when it came to governing and managing a city.
"It's fine, I will leave over ten Extraordinary Ice Lions to help you. Additionally, I will have Sangi come over to help you govern."
After occupying the Great Snow Mountain Secret Realm, the Ice Crystal Butterflies had already become the new mainstay of medical care.
Next, Chen Mo also intended to develop water-attribute Spirit Beasts and cultivate a large number of Extraordinary Creatures with healing abilities to establish the Ice Lion Kingdom's medical department.
Sangi's healing ability also seemed less important now, and as a human, even with an ample supply of divine medicine, his growth speed was far behind that of Extraordinary beings.
But he had helped Chen Mo in the early stages after all, so Chen Mo prepared to let him "retire" in this area.
Hearing this, Lion Mom nodded.
In any case, it wasn't very far from the Great Snow Mountain Secret Realm.
If anything happened, she could just go back to the Great Snow Mountain to find her son!
After leaving a small number of Extraordinary Creatures and Awakened in each of the three cities to help establish a new order, Chen Mo continued forward with the Ice Lion Legion.
For now, the most important thing was still to unify Africa as quickly as possible.
Whether for himself or for the survivors, it was a good thing.
————————
[Building Lion] Day 22.
In less than 10 days, Chen Mo had occupied half of Africa.
It was almost as if wherever the Ice Lion Legion went, they conquered.
The speed of territory expansion depended entirely on the marching speed of the Ice Lion Legion!
The only current problem was the lack of "manpower."
Africa was too vast, and the Ice Lion kin from the Great Snow Mountain were becoming insufficient.
Extraordinary Leaders who previously oversaw a single city now had to oversee an entire nation.
