My military branches can Evolve Infinitely

The Pure White Kingdom, its Capital City was not in chaos, the war had not yet spread to this place, but people on the streets already hurried along, a tense and desolate mood permeating the air.

It was said that now the entire Pure White Kingdom was sealed off, communication with the outside world cut off.

And the filthy tide was spreading incessantly, step by step pressing closer to the Capital of the Pure White Kingdom.

Duo Lai looked around, the shops along the street mostly closed, not a place in sight where one could taste the local specialties.

It was somewhat disappointed.

However, thinking it over, it would soon be able to taste the flavor of ancient monsters, so there was no need to feel too disappointed.

Mu Yuan observed his surroundings and began to ponder:

"Judging by the situation in the Capital, the crisis is severe, but still far from the brink of national extermination. Yet, if one were to infer from historical outcomes... no, there's no need to look at history, just from the mission objectives alone one can deduce that the Pure White Kingdom won't last ten days."

"Assist the Pure White Kingdom in resisting the Red Moon disaster, time limit of 10 days."

If the Pure White Kingdom could hold out for ten days, then there would be nothing for them Trial Lords to do.

"The normal approach to this challenge would indeed be to try to weaken the enemy, or to find any potential weaknesses in the enemy and break through these to delay their offensive."

"And the regular mode of overcoming the challenge would probably require the unification of all Trial Lords to have a chance at a perfect completion."

He made such guesses based on two points.

The mission objectives leaned towards cooperation, the Lords sharing a common enemy and goal;

However, the highest gifts from heaven and earth emphasized that only the one who performs the best may possibly receive them, creating a direct competitive relationship among the Trialists.

This was akin to one of the purposes of the trials, to test whether the most outstanding Trial Lord could subdue all other Trialists, and then jointly harness their powers to combat formidable foes.

Mu Yuan actually wanted to follow the normal challenge process, as it was the most reliable method.

Only, ten days was too long, and he had no choice.

He was forced into this.

He had to find a way to break the rules, to complete the challenge ahead of time.

Was such a scenario possible?

"Historical trials nearly perfectly replicate the scenes of the past, the rules and logic of the entire world, approximately having no difference from the real world."

"In any case, whether or not it's possible to break the rules and complete the challenge unorthodoxly, trying it out will tell."

"There's no need to waste time overthinking or guessing, simply attempting would settle it."

The worst-case scenario would just be failing the trial.

Failing would merely mean exiting the trial world, wasting time and the entry fee, a cost he could afford.

He also didn't have the time to take things slow.

Not far from the church, there was a hall for 'ancient heroic spirits' to take on tasks. Without exception, all of these tasks were rather thorny and urgent ones; otherwise, they wouldn't appear here.

"Pure White Knights · Sixth Battalion has lost contact in Tianmu Mountain, request investigation into the situation."

"In the northern area of Snow Covered City, a sixty-meter-class aggregated monster advancing has been spotted, assistance requested!"

"Urgent supply transportation task for the Third Battalion."

"Intelligence reconnaissance tasks for regions A2, A4, A9."

Mu Yuan browsed the details of each urgent task.

Aside from him, other Trial Lords including the Golden Lion Prince and Glasses Man had already snatched up a few tasks and left.

Though Mu Yuan intended to pursue a 'speedrun' course, at this moment, he was not in a rush; he was seeking relevant information within the tasks.

"There are differences in difficulty among urgent tasks, like the task involving the suddenly lost contact of the Pure White Knights' Sixth Battalion, which undoubtedly means that whoever accepts the task would face greater risk."

By the time he headed to this hall, Dead Bone, Hong Yi, and others had already scattered throughout the Capital City gathering some information.

They were neither experts in intelligence gathering.

But they knew a little.

For instance, Hong Yi, even without using the 'inhumane' soul reading ability, could bypass many tedious steps of probing with a slight application of the Illusion Technique, and directly find information brokers in the Capital City who had some status, were not strong, and had more news to share.

Soon, Mu Yuan had a rather deep understanding of the Pure White Kingdom.

"The Pure White Knights are the strongest martial force of the Pure White Kingdom, with its leader and two deputy leaders all being Legendary Realm existences. The Knights are also each an Elite warrior."

"For example, the leader of the Sixth Battalion of the Knights is a Fourth-order Peak Strongman. For such an Elite battalion to suddenly lose contact and not even be able to transmit a message, there is a very high likelihood that they have encountered a Legendary Realm monster."

This task stood out as a particularly difficult challenge.

Among the urgent tasks were a few that seemed not too dangerous at first glance, but deeper contemplation revealed the possibility that these tasks might also encounter legendary monsters.

If a Trial Lord were to meet a legendary monster, even if they could escape alive, they would likely suffer heavy losses and pay a tremendous price.

If one were to follow conventional procedures to navigate the trial dungeon, the Lord would need to analyze intelligence and avoid danger.

But, if one wishes to quick clear...

"The most dangerous places are where the most valuable intelligence can be gained; even without intelligence, killing a few legendary monsters wouldn't be a loss."

Mu Yuan pondered.

While others carefully avoided areas haunted by legendary monsters, Mu Yuan was already considering the strategic value of killing one such creature.

Legendary monsters, after all, not only had they faced them head-on, but they had also killed quite a few, without really any sense of awe left.

He tallied up the potential.
