Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1092 The Threshold of the Transcendent Realm

The next day at noon, after a good day's rest, Li Ce's condition was obviously much better. At the same time, in the previous battle, he was also very wise to avoid letting himself enter a state of overdraft.

After all, Li Ce knew clearly that before he became a mantra mage, he was the commander of the border defense forces!
Analyzing the battle situation and commanding troops in combat are higher priorities for him.

Of course, he couldn't leave early just because of the serious overdraft of the power of truth.

Zhou Xu agreed with Li Ce's idea.

Indeed, commanding a general and practicing mantras are two different professions. A person's time and energy are limited, and it is impossible to do both.

Take Li Ce for example, his intelligence and command are both four stars, so his talent as a troop commander is unquestionable.

Zhou Xu had previously given them the relevant mantras of the skeleton soldiers so that they could enrich their own tactical applications and enhance the combat effectiveness of their own troops while commanding the battle.

At the same time, it is also because the scale of early battles is indeed small. A truth mage who raises his hand and pulls up two or three hundred skeleton soldiers is enough to change the situation of the battle to a certain extent.

But now, with the continuous emergence of powerful forces, the enemy is getting stronger and stronger, and the scale of war is getting larger and larger. The benefits that can be generated by the two or three hundred skeleton soldiers are beginning to become smaller and smaller.

Under this premise, if they put aside their duties as commanders and started practicing every day, it would undoubtedly be putting the cart before the horse.

But this does not mean that Zhou Xu has no requirements for their cultivation.

"Indeed, you are a commander first, and then a mantra mage. This is true, but I still hope that you can try to cultivate to the extraordinary realm first."

As one of Zhou Xu's confidants, Li Ce never questioned the orders of their Majesty.

However, Zhou Xu still planned to explain the interests involved to Li Ce first.

"Li Ce, have you felt that your training efficiency seems to have increased recently?"

Almost the moment he heard these words, Li Ce reacted.

"Thank you for your blessing, Your Majesty!"

Although he had not been practicing meditation recently, he had been doing meditation recovery.

He had not been quite sure before, but it seemed that his meditation recovery efficiency had increased. But now, he was completely sure of it.

"Yes, I have given you a new blessing. Although you still look like humans now, you already possess some of the qualifications that only extraordinary beings can possess."

While nodding, Zhou Xu spoke in an orderly manner.

"In other words, your cultivation efficiency will be faster than that of ordinary humans, and the difficulty of breakthrough will be lower than that of ordinary humans. This is an advantage."

"At the same time, once you cultivate to the extraordinary realm, your life level will change. You will become an extraordinary life. Compared to ordinary humans, you will have a longer natural lifespan."

"In addition, from a tactical perspective, a transcendental mage can quickly mobilize thousands of skeleton troops, which will further enhance the tactical value of the skeleton troops."

Speaking of this, Zhou Xu's voice paused.

"There are also those ogre skeletons, and the green-skinned skeleton that we just cleared out, whose strength has reached the Hundred Refining Realm."

“You are simply unable to drive these special skeletons with your current strength. Only when you are promoted to the extraordinary realm can you drive them relatively calmly. I don’t need to say more about the tactical value of this, right?” Li Ce knew what their Majesty said at this moment.

But Li Ce was also aware that his qualifications were limited.

Whether one can cultivate to the extraordinary realm depends mainly on the spiritual star level, and his spiritual star level is only three stars.

Compared with ordinary humans, this is actually not low and can be considered excellent. He has the probability of being able to cultivate to the extraordinary realm.

But who can tell the truth about probability?

Otherwise, look at John, the leader of the Wood Elf Mage Group.

John is a genuine four-star spirit. He practiced hard for many years and finally succeeded in advancing to the extraordinary realm and becoming an extraordinary wizard a while ago.

From the perspective of qualifications, each star level is a watershed. Under normal circumstances, the gap in qualifications between four stars and three stars is almost insurmountable.

John had to practice hard for several years, so for him, wouldn't the time be doubled?
Moreover, the prerequisite for doubling this amount is that he has to set aside a lot of time every day to devote to meditation practice.

This is simply unrealistic for a commander-in-chief who manages an entire area.

Li Ce, who knew this clearly and also knew where his talents lay, naturally attached more importance to his job as the commander-in-chief, and made his choice after weighing the pros and cons.

However, at this moment, Li Ce also expressed his agreement with what their Majesty said.

Indeed, judging from the previous battle, unless a troop was assembled directly like the Wood Elf Mage Corps, an ordinary truth mage like him would basically have little value on the battlefield, and at most would be better than nothing.

If you want to improve your strategic value and at the same time raise your upper limit, you must break through to the extraordinary realm.

Li Ce had basically given up on this idea before.

However, after learning that they had received the blessing of their Majesty and had some of the qualifications of extraordinary life forms, as well as the various benefits of becoming extraordinary life forms, Li Ce undoubtedly felt a little hopeful again. He felt that it would be a pity not to try harder.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I will definitely take more time out to meditate and practice, and strive to reach the extraordinary realm."

After hearing this, Zhou Xu smiled and patted Li Ce on the shoulder, giving him encouragement.

"Come on, you can do it!"

Zhou Xu had high hopes for Li Ce. Of course, if Li Ce was limited by his own aptitude and could not practice, then he could only try his best and improve all his people together.

In Zhou Xu's opinion, the transcendent realm is a very important threshold. As long as one can reach the transcendent realm, not to mention the improvement of life level and the increase of natural lifespan, just talk about the strategic value. A transcendent magician is almost comparable to an army of a thousand people.

Even if troops of a thousand men become insignificant as the scale of war continues to expand, as extraordinary wizards, they can also target the enemy's elite or ace troops.

After all, the soldiers of elite troops and ace troops need to be selected from the best, and their scale will not be too large.

Simply put, as long as they become extraordinary wizards, they will not be easily eliminated even if the scale of the war continues to expand in the future!

This is also one of the main reasons why Zhou Xu hopes that generals including Li Ce will work hard and at least cultivate to the extraordinary realm!
