Global Descent: 100×Reward Chapter 172 – Advancement: Shield of Thorns

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The territory was especially lively today. From time to time, there would be golden upgrade light descending.

The older warriors were already used to it. It was not like they had never seen something more exaggerated than this.

The newbies were still getting used to it. All of them looked at the medical tent with reverence.

As for Lin Ye, he was currently bathed in the three-colored light beam, frantically devouring the energy within.

It was visible to the naked eye that his innate talent for divine control had increased greatly.

lv1→lv2→lv3….

He levelled up 10 times in a row, immediately becoming a Class 2 Talent.

Talent: God's Defense

Quality: Top Tier Beginner

Level: 10

Skill: God's World Defense. A Domain-type skill. Starts at a radius of 100 meters. The more citizens there are within the range, the more loyal they will be. It will increase the physique of each citizen (For every level up, it will further increase the range and the basic attributes of their physique. After the battle ends, they will go back to their original states)

God's Shield: Within the range of God's Defense, the loyalty of all citizens will form into a shield. When gathered, it can form a defensive shield within the territory. When separated, it can be integrated with shield-type weapons. The defense will be doubled (Increase in level can increase defense)

Derived Skill: Shield of Thorns

According to the person's defense, they can completely reflect physical attacks from other parties. However, it cannot reflect magic attacks. The amount reflected is multiplied according to the level and the loyalty of the citizens.

“F*ck, there's even damage reflection! Insane!”

Lin Ye instantly loved this skill.

Whoosh—

He secretly activated his God's Defense Domain, and invisible waves spread throughout the entire territory.

Moments later, a large number of golden light spots gathered from all directions.

With his help, he sent it back to all his loyalists.

In an instant, the natives and humans around felt a gentle power land on their bodies like a layer of energy.

With it, everyone could experience their strength, speed, and defense increasing significantly.

“Oh my god, did the lord recruit an incomparably precious War Totem Master? What a magical power. I can feel the attributes of my body, especially my defense, have increased a lot.”

“Me too. Impressive. Everyone, quickly try it with your shields. Having a shield and not having it seems to be two completely different experiences. With a shield, the speed at which defense increases is simply insane. The increase is almost double. It's too astonishing.”

“Come, come, come. Little ranger miss, shoot an arrow at me. Let me test its power!”

“Cutie, hit me with your axe!”

“Ah, what the f*ck, this thing can even reflect energy. It hurts! My hands are numb!”

“Terrifying. The defense has doubled and it can even reflect damage. It's simply a combination of a turtle shell and a hedgehog armor.”

“If we meet low-level zombies, won't we be able to reflect them to death even if we stood still? Hahaha, this feels too good. I like this kind of ability they can hit me all they want as I stand there and I can still kill them!”

“Boss Tru, quickly use your battle aura to try and see if it can reflect aura attacks!”

Moments later, exclamations of excitement came from all over the territory. At the same time, the sound of sparring rang out continuously.

When everyone's enthusiasm reached its peak,

Lin Ye quietly used Heart's Web and spoke in the ears of his loyalists.

“My people, this is a special gift from your lord. As long as you are within my territory, you will be able to exert strength and defense that far surpasses your usual self.”

“What? This is an ability bestowed by our lord?!!”

“As long as we're within our territory, we will be buffed? Hahaha, this feels so good. Our equipment has always been superior. With group defense skills, no one will be able to defeat us in the future. It will be difficult for us to die even if we wanted to.”

“Indeed, following Lord Lin Ye is the wisest choice!”

Heart's Web could only link to 100 people at a time, but the news spread quickly through the word of mouth. Soon, it spread to both the main bunker and the branch bunker.

For a time, the crowd was in high spirits. Everyone was happy to be able to follow such a reliable lord.

For this, another ten plus Class 4 experts offered their loyalty.

Currently, other than some of the older Class 4 experts who basically did not need to go to the frontline, almost all of the younger generation, from Class 1 to Class 4, had already offered all their loyalty to Lin Ye.

Of course, the thing which contributed the most was the Lord's Skin.

This thing was indeed selfishly domineering. It could directly change a Class 1 native soldier into a loyalist.

Together with God's Defense, they were a perfect match.

Whoosh—

Twenty thousand meters away from where others could not see, this was the limit of his territory.

Lin Ye narrowed his eyes. All his abilities were focused. More than 80,000 loyalists seemed to sense that their lord was calling them from within their hearts.

All of them exerted all their strength and their golden lights of loyalty followed God's Defense Domain, gathering together at the edge of the territory.

In just a few minutes, an energy shield vaguely appeared.

In the blink of an eye, the energy shield shrunk rapidly and finally landed two thousand meters away.

It was the exact position which he wanted it to be.

“Gosh, that took so much concentration.”

Lin Ye wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked shocked.

Honestly speaking, this skill was definitely a miracle, but its drawbacks were evident.

It required too much mental capacity and strength.

He was currently a Class 5 Combat Monarch who had awakened 36,500 potential chains. He had also comprehended Invincible Heart and the Heart of Freedom.

In terms of strength and reserve, his mental strength had long surpassed his peers by dozens or even a hundred times.

However, even someone as powerful as him was unable to condense an energy shield that could protect the entire territory for a long time.

One could imagine how scarily difficult it was.

Of course, an energy shield that condensed and covered a range of 2,000 meters was still very powerful.

In order to test the strength of the shield, Lin Ye drove the spirit vehicle to the defense circle where the wooden fence was being built.

He first slashed a few times with his Class 1 white tier weapon.

Thud!

The energy shield was not damaged at all. Instead, a few cracks appeared on the weapon.

This was the power of the damage reflection from the thorns. It was extremely effective against physical attacks.

Following that, he tested the effect of Class 2 blue tier weapon. Same as previously. the blade cracked.

If this was a Level 2 Swift Zombie, it would probably break a few of its teeth with a bite.

Then, he used a Class 3 Purple Tier Weapon.

This time, there were faint ripples on the shield, but it was not a big deal.

On the other hand, the damage reflection from the thorns was a little strong, and his palm was slightly numb.

It was clear that the more powerful the attack was, the more powerful the damage reflection would be.

Finally, he used the Class 4 Silver Tier weapon to attack.

Whoosh!

Ripples appeared on the shield.

After another ten furious strikes, the barrier trembled and showed signs of shattering.

“Not bad. Its power is slightly lower than Class 4. Furthermore, it is a shield that had expanded its range to 2,000 meters. Once it shrinks, it will only be 100 meters…”

“This defensive power is probably shocking for others!”

Lin Ye nodded to himself.

Although there was no large-scale energy shield, he could already see the direction.

He also saw the potential of God's Defense.

A moment later, his thoughts came to a stop.

Whoosh!

A golden shield of light appeared in front of his arm. It was about 80 centimeters long and he could change its size at will.

Next, he planned to test the limit of a single shield. He could not help but turn his gaze to the breeding field.
