Following research, the first target of the Qin An Royal Residence was the Republic of Barr.
First, the Republic of Barr bordered Da Xia. Second, the Republic of Barr was almost entirely occupied by bugs.
Hope City, West Gate.
When Qin Shilei arrived outside the city, the first batch of 500,000 warriors to be dispatched were already lined up neatly.
"Qin An Royal Residence, invincible in battle!" Qin Shilei and the three daughters, An Qian, stood in mid-air, raising their swords and shouting.
"Qin An Royal Residence, invincible in battle!" The crowd below also shouted in unison.
"Set off!"
As soon as Qin Shilei finished speaking, he opened his Cave Heaven and Blessed Land, forming entrance and exit points to a large space hundreds of meters wide.
Carrying the spatial entrances and exits, he flew rapidly over the crowd.
He quickly absorbed the evolved beings one by one into his Cave Heaven and Blessed Land.
After more than half an hour, all 500,000 evolved beings were finally collected.
An Qian and the other two returned to the spirit gathering array within the Cave Heaven and Blessed Land to cultivate again.
Qin Shilei summoned the Golden Winged Thunder Roc, flew onto its back, pointed forward, and said, "Depart!"
The Golden Winged Thunder Roc, having been promoted to Platinum 1-star, transformed into a bolt of lightning and flew rapidly towards Barr's direction.
After advancing to the Platinum realm, the Golden Winged Thunder Roc's pure flight speed once again surpassed its master's, reaching an astonishing 3,200 kilometers per hour.
In less than an hour, Qin Shilei had arrived in the central part of Barr.
Below was a city called Talie, with a scale similar to Hope City.
Looking down, he saw no living humans or zombies, only various beetles wandering around.
Qin Shilei first released the Violet Armored Beetle.
"Roar!"
With a roar from the Violet Armored Beetle, the bugs below all looked up at their king.
Then, under the Violet Armored Beetle's command, they spread out in all directions, leaving a vast, empty square.
Qin Shilei opened his Cave Heaven and Blessed Land again.
An Qian and the others flew out first, followed by 501 official members of the Night Watch and 300 reserve members, and finally, 3,000 Golden experts from the Qin An Royal Residence.
After emerging, these Golden experts flew into advantageous positions in the sky.
Then came the vast number of 500,000 Silver evolved beings.
As soon as they appeared, they advanced in all directions under the command of their respective officers.
The sounds of collision, explosion, and roaring immediately filled the entire city.
Under the suppression of the Violet Armored Beetle, these bugs could not form a swarm. Facing the human offensive, they transformed into corpses.
Moreover, with An Qian and the other three Platinum grandmasters patrolling the skies, even if a high-level Golden bug appeared by chance, it would be quickly eliminated.
Qin Shilei summoned the Phantom again, rode the Golden Winged Thunder Roc, and flew out of the city.
He planned to use the Phantom and King Kong to scout Barr in advance and kill the high-level Golden exotic beasts within.
After everything was arranged, Qin Shilei returned to the Cave Heaven and Blessed Land.
His current cultivation had reached Platinum 8-star, so he had to seize the time to stay in the spirit gathering array and strive to reach the Platinum peak as soon as possible.
Five hours later.
As the Phantom killed a Platinum 7-star Silver Fang Savage Crocodile with a single sword strike, the Golden Winged Thunder Roc in the distance suddenly let out a cry and flew over.
"Master, the telepathic talisman is active."
As the Golden Winged Thunder Roc spoke, it injected a stream of vital energy into the telepathic talisman hanging around its neck.
An Qian's voice then came from within, "Strength, this city has been cleared. There are some large pieces of supplies left. You can come out and collect them."
At the Phantom's signal, the Golden Winged Thunder Roc let out a loud cry, indicating that its master had heard.
After hanging up the telepathic talisman, the Golden Winged Thunder Roc used its spatial ring to collect the corpse of the Silver Fang Savage Crocodile and the dropped treasure chest.
At this moment, Qin Shilei's figure suddenly reappeared above the square.
"Shilei, this is where those large supplies are."
An Qian, who had been waiting, handed him a map with more than ten circles drawn on it.
"Okay, I'll go and collect those things first."
Qin Shilei took the map, identified it, and then flew off in a chosen direction.
An Qian also turned and flew into the distance, continuing to lead her subordinates and attack outside the city.
As night fell.
An Qian and the others returned to Qin Shilei's side with the Night Watch members.
After a day of fighting, the army of the Qin An Royal Residence had not only completely annihilated the bugs in the city but had also advanced nearly a hundred kilometers outside the city.
The army had set up camp to rest, and An Qian and the others were preparing to return to the spirit gathering array to continue cultivating and resting.
To ensure safety, Qin Shilei's three Platinum pets were also left outside.
The night passed without incident.
The next morning, the army continued to advance outwards, with Talie City as the center.
Today, only Kong Qingshu, a Platinum expert, came out of the Cave Heaven and Blessed Land to take charge, while An Qian and Zhang Xiaoli remained in the spirit gathering array to cultivate.
With the help of King Kong and the others, there was no need to worry about a delayed rescue.
In fact, it was easier to clear out bugs and other exotic beasts in the wild.
Therefore, the army's advance was not slow.
Throughout the day, they advanced another four to five hundred kilometers.
During this period, they also encountered many evolved beings from Barr.
Discussions about the Qin An Royal Residence's invasion of Barr became a hot topic on the international chat channel.
"The wicked King Qin An, for his ambition of hegemony, has once again extended his wicked claws to Barr."
"Detestable invaders, tyrannical dictators, the Blue Star is about to fall under King Qin An's dark rule. Let us all mourn!"
"Hahaha, our beautiful country is tens of thousands of kilometers away from Da Xia. King Qin An, if you have the ability, bring your army and fly over."
"Our Kangaroo country is also tens of thousands of kilometers away from Da Xia. Even if we gave King Qin An a pair of wings, he probably wouldn't be able to covet our Kangaroo country."
"Brothers from Kimchi Country, are you okay?"
"King Qin An is the spy our Kimchi Country sent to Da Xia. Even if he returns to Kimchi Country one day, it will only be a triumphant return."
"You conspirators upstairs, I hope King Qin An comes to our Southern Vietnam Country soon to kill the bugs and rescue the survivors of Southern Vietnam."
"Our Lucy Country also strongly requests King Qin An to come to our country. We are willing to crown you as king."
Initially, there were many condemnations of Qin Shilei, but later, countless voices emerged wanting to crown Qin Shilei as king.
However, as soon as these comments appeared, they were immediately met with scorn from countless keyboard warriors, who called them submissive and willing slaves.
Many even mocked those people as being hired by Qin Shilei.
"Shilei, do you think those people were arranged by Elder Tan?"
Looking at the comments on the chat channel, An Qian asked curiously.
"It shouldn't be. If Elder Tan had arranged something, he would have told us in advance."
Qin Shilei shook his head and said, "Although the situation in Da Xia is very good, many survivors in other countries are living precariously. Those people might genuinely hope that we can go and rescue them."
Kong Qingshu added, "Indeed. Many survivors from Barr I met today are extremely grateful to us."
The few of them chatted casually, paying no heed to the various comments on the chat channel.
Whether a hegemonic figure or a savior, these were just the opinions of outsiders. They only sought to live well and strove for that goal.
Whoever dared to block their path would be cut down with a sword!
