Global Lord: Start with Divine Favor-Chapter 747 - 104: The Enhancement of Semi-Divine Artifact

Don't be fooled by the billions of Spirit Crystal Coins Lin Rui currently earns from cross-plane trading.

This is only possible through cross-plane trading; normally, whether through warfare, harvests, or territorial output, he could never reach this level.

Even if he fought to the death, a single battle would yield only a few million at most.

It would take dozens of battles to earn one billion Spirit Crystal Coins.

And if you wanted to trade Spiritual Gems for Spirit Crystal Coins, gathering a billion Spirit Crystal Coins is unimaginably difficult.

After all, a Crimson Chalice Combat Priest, as a Tier Four Elite-level soldier, has a recruitment cost of just three Tier Four Spiritual Gems, three hundred Spirit Crystal Coins, and three hundred crystals per priest.

The recruitment cost is so low, merely three hundred Spirit Crystal Coins. It's unimaginable how much soldier production costs could amount to!

Even a Tier Five Spiritual Gem is worth only three thousand Spirit Crystal Coins.

A squadron of Tier Five soldiers only produces thirty thousand Spirit Crystal Coins in one cycle. It would take three thousand three hundred cycles to produce a billion Spirit Crystal Coins.

Even if you invested a million Spirit Crystal Coins in them, it would take thirty-three cycles to break even.

Thus, it's destined that Audrey must follow an elite path, or rather some of the elite soldiers need to be extremely enhanced. The cannon fodder will be maintained by her subordinate mages, continuing to uphold their loyalty.

Otherwise, if she loses the main elite force just once, she'd be so heartbroken she couldn't sleep well for several months.

But there is a way out of this predicament; the best solution is for her to find an ancient tomb and take a nap.

A nap of 63 years, and a squadron of soldiers could amass over a billion Spirit Crystal Coins. If she slept for a thousand years, she could rake in twenty billion Spirit Crystal Coins!

This shows that, no matter how much an individual struggles for thousands of years, it's no match for the collective efforts of many under one power.

Fortunately, Audrey commands more than just one squadron of soldiers; she could form one or two divisions, with one division having a hundred squadrons, raking in two trillion Spirit Crystal Coins over a thousand years.

After calculating this, Audrey exclaimed excitedly: "Father Emperor, if I calculated correctly, if I form two divisions of Dark Temple Warriors, I could collect four trillion Spirit Crystal Coins without doing anything!"

"Four trillion Spirit Crystal Coins! How much wealth did our family possess at its peak? Was it nine hundred million Spirit Crystal Coins? And I've never seen what even a billion Spirit Crystal Coins look like in my whole life."

Audrey was truly overjoyed, realizing she definitely had the potential of a little rich lady.

Previously, she was covering up for a mere few million Spirit Crystal Coins, but now she discovered she could potentially gain several trillion Spirit Crystal Coins!

Four million versus four trillion! The gap is as vast as the heavens and the earth.

But Audrey quickly sighed and said, "It's a pity this simplest method is the least feasible. To sleep alone in a tomb for a thousand years, I'd rather be a little poorer. If I can't be with you, Father Emperor, I'd prefer not to have those four trillion Spirit Crystal Coins."

Lin Rui, smiling, said, "Don't be so pessimistic. It's not impossible to get those four trillion."

"Eh?" Audrey's eyes lit up, and she asked, "Father Emperor, do you mean you're willing to sleep in the tomb with me for a thousand years? If you're unwilling to sleep, I could still do it!"

Lin Rui, slightly annoyed, said, "A thousand years of sleep, wouldn't you get bored? I was talking about the Territorial Essence. As long as you find a few medium-sized Territorial Essences or even large ones, once the historically significant trait triggers, your trait will be continuously activated."

Audrey quickly realized this and, hugging Lin Rui joyously, exclaimed, "That's great, that's great! I knew it! Being with Father Emperor guarantees that good things happen to me. This immense wealth has finally come to me! Hahaha. Controlling resources, I'm just like a rich lady with mines!"

Lin Rui laughed and then shifted focus to other aspects; wealth is indeed an aspect that a territory needs to pay attention to, but the support for a territory's existence is always military strength.

So Lin Rui asked, "Aside from yourself, how is the army under your command doing?"

Audrey immediately focused on this, as these lovely resourcepoints are crucial for her future financial success.

However, after just a quick check, Audrey's eyes widened and she covered her mouth in disbelief, exclaiming, "Father Emperor! Father Emperor! There's a big problem!"

"What problem?" Lin Rui frowned; although she always engages in peculiar activities, she generally doesn't mess around with serious matters.

Audrey immediately said, "If you don't urgently allocate some Spirit Crystal Coins for me, you might need to gather the army to quell an uprising of the Undead. My Command Value... can't hold up anymore!"

"What happened?" Lin Rui immediately drew out two billion Spirit Crystal Coins from the funds earmarked for buying potions and gave them to Audrey. There was no other choice in such urgent circumstances, and they had to owe a bit to Rose for now. If worse comes to worst, they could borrow two billion Spirit Crystal Coins from that little rich lady. After all, war was coming soon, and they could repay her with the mercenaries' fees.

Audrey immediately used the Spirit Crystal Coins to swiftly nullify the bursting Command Value due to the massive growth of soldiers and said, "It's the rank advancement. A full two battalions of soldiers advanced to Tier Six. And nearly one battalion's soldiers advanced from Heroic Spirit Level to Lord-level! Silver Moon and her unit also advanced from Epic-level to Legendary-level!"
