Chapter 59: Take it down without bloodshed!

[Light Spirit Origin Progress: 100%]

[Note: You may claim the origin immediately or allow the existing avatar to continue the fusion.]

“Light Spirit?”

Qi Lin was stunned.

He knew about the news from the spirit avatar, but he didn’t expect the other side to finish fusing the origin so quickly.

But what surprised him even more was that not only could units of the same race be fused, but even their origins could be as well.

Without a doubt, although the Light Spirits excelled at using the power of light, their essence was still that of the Spirit race.

Otherwise, the most ordinary Forest Spirits wouldn’t need to add the word ‘Forest’ before their name.

“The spirit avatar’s strength is too weak, far inferior to the other three avatars.”

Qi Lin thought for a moment and decided to proceed with the fusion.

To begin with, spirits weren’t a top-tier race, and if they were further scattered, it wouldn’t make much of a difference in the current situation.

—

On the other side, Island No. 040626, Spirit Lord’s Island.

Qi Lin felt a strange sensation in her body, as if something was entering her.

She couldn’t describe the feeling, nor did she know the cause.

After a moment, the strangeness faded.

A hint of surprise flashed across her face as she raised her fair arm, which was now emitting a dense light energy.

“The main body actually gave me the Light Spirit’s origin?!”

These past few days, the Alliance Leader’s Light Spirits had been mysteriously disappearing.

He thought they had died fighting the treants and never suspected Qi Lin.

Even though she ran to the alliance every day for no reason.

Because there was only one top-tier lord on the island, the other side quickly unified all the lords with absolute dominance.

He knew that defeating the ruling race couldn’t be achieved overnight, and uniting all the lords was inevitable.

Currently, this Alliance Leader was preparing for the final all-out war against the treants.

Now that Qi Lin had fused with the Light Spirit origin, she no longer needed to rely on others.

Not to mention, her level had already reached nine.

The other side had completed unification, so as a vice-leader, it was understandable for her to seize the position.

After all, he had once said, ‘If someone stronger than me appears, they may take my place.’

The fusion of two origins naturally allowed her Tree of Life to summon both types of spirits.

If Forest Spirits were the commoners of the Spirit race, then Light Spirits were the nobility among these commoners.

From birth, they wielded the power of light, allowing them to thrive against other races.

Their appearances were nearly identical, except Light Spirits had pure golden hair, while Forest Spirits had light golden hair.

Besides that, the difference lay in the intangible aura each exuded.

Qi Lin turned and walked into her lord’s hall, took out all her seeds, and chose to summon only Light Spirits.

Since the main body was wealthy, her avatars naturally had plenty of resources as well.

For example, on this island, Qi Lin directly invested several thousand gold coins, sweeping all the seeds from the trading post.

She used them all to summon units, intending to seize the Alliance Leader’s position.

And now, it was night.

There were hardly any other lords in the Alliance Hall.

If only the Alliance Leader’s spirit was present, she was fully confident she could defeat him.

“Let’s move!”

At her command, Qi Lin led almost all the Forest and Light Spirits in her territory through the portal toward the alliance.

The Alliance Hall was also located in a forest, beside a towering tree—the Alliance Leader’s lord’s hall.

“So late at night—why are you here?”

Seeing Qi Lin arrive, the Alliance Leader smiled, unaware of her expressionless face.

Then, spirits surged from the Alliance Hall, quickly reaching nearly a thousand.

“Why bring so many troops? I was planning to attack the treants the day after tomorrow. Isn’t this too hasty?”

Confusion flickered across his face.

Even his units sensed something was wrong, raising their weapons in alert.

It wasn’t until he saw the Light Spirits that shock dawned on him.

He couldn’t understand where Qi Lin got those Light Spirits.

“Hand over the Alliance Leader position, and I’ll give you a swift end.”

Qi Lin pointed her longsword at him, murder in her eyes.

“You want to be the Alliance Leader?”

“Are you really this dumb, or just pretending?”

Qi Lin was almost speechless at his stupidity.

“I want more than the alliance. I want to unify this island.”

“If it’s you, I suppose it’s possible.”

He considered for a moment, then answered seriously.

???

Three question marks popped up over Qi Lin’s head.

At this moment, she wanted to say only one thing: 6.

She couldn’t be bothered to talk anymore and prepared to strike him down with her sword—when suddenly, she received a message of Alliance Leader transfer, along with his active surrender.

“Where’s your ambition? Your dreams?!”

“In front of you, I don’t want to pretend anymore. I just want to survive.”

He explained sincerely, almost making Qi Lin nauseous.

If not for the spirits’ natural beauty, she was sure she would have thrown up.

“See? This is your lord. Utterly foolish. It’s better to follow me than him.”

Qi Lin ignored him and turned to the units behind him.

After all, he was a top-tier lord.

Even after losses, he still had several hundred Light Spirits.

Absorbing his forces would be a huge benefit.

Not to mention, she was now a Light Spirit Lord as well.

The units looked at each other, unsure what to do.

It was the first time they’d faced such a situation.

Their Alliance Leader could be dumb sometimes, but not to the point of outright betrayal.

“Hear that? Hurry up and greet your new lord!”

When his own lord didn’t react, he turned around and gave the order himself.

Qi Lin had no words for this turn of events.

The units heard their lord’s command, and of course, they obeyed.

Besides, who wouldn’t want a stronger lord?

And so, Qi Lin took control of the other side’s units in the most absurd way, gaining the Alliance Leader position.

Originally, she intended to kill him, but after some thought, leaving him alive provided cover for summoning Light Spirits and silenced dissent within the alliance.

After all, their loyalty was to the Alliance Leader, and the Alliance Leader now served her, so the main quest counted as her accomplishment.

After dealing with the ruling race, wiping out any opposition in the alliance would be a matter of minutes.
