Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

In fact, Zongze had the idea of ​​​​competing with his elder brother at the beginning.

But later, Zong Shen's reputation became more and more famous, and he gradually established his position as the first lord.

Aze gradually lost the idea of ​​competition.

It is normal for two brothers to have competing ideas with each other.

This in itself is a healthy competition and will not rise to the level of hostility.

The two brothers grew up and lived together since childhood. They are also connected by blood, and they are not in the same area.

There are no conflicting factors.

The two brothers are nothing more than whoever gets better at it can help the brother later.

There is nothing too far-fetched about pretending to be a hand-carrying brother. Since we are brothers, there is no need to show off to outsiders.

After discovering that his elder brother had become the first lord, Zongze became more and more Buddhist.

In addition to daily development and construction, he also does not forget to enjoy timely enjoyment.

There are beast-eared girls and mage girls waiting for you anytime and anywhere.

I have to go to the [market] every day to buy those delicious ingredients.

It's not as complicated as Zong Shen, and he wants to spend every minute exploring and building.

This is also the biggest performance difference between the two brothers at present.

But even though Zong Ze is so Buddhist, his development level is still firmly in the first echelon, only slightly lower than Chen Rui, a reborn freak.

Basically, they are the small group of top lords at the top of the pyramid.

Because he is indeed very lucky, no matter what he does, everything goes smoothly.

Although there are not many big surprises, there is a lot of good news every day.

Whenever he finished exploring one ruins, clues to the next ruins would naturally come to him.

The same goes for opening treasure chests and blind boxes. The rewards you get are always better than the guarantee.

This luck is not only good, but also very stable.

There is no dramatic effect of ups and downs, misfortune and good fortune.

It's just good luck that goes smoothly and lasts to the end.

There is neither such a great opportunity nor any disaster.

However, there are endless numbers of small rich and small nobles.

This kind of European emperor is actually the most enviable.

There is no pressure.

Of course, Zongze is not sure how long his good luck will last.

After all, luck is elusive and unpredictable.

Many times, it is just reflected in the word "shun".

Leaning lazily on the recliner, he opened his mouth and ate the melon fed by the beast-eared girl.

Enjoying the gentle massage from the mage's wife.

He looked at the excavation site in the canyon ruins ahead.

Currently, Zongze's territory has a population of 40,000 to 50,000.

This number is not as good as Chen Rui, let alone old brother Zong Shen, but placed nearby, he is definitely a lord at the level of a regional overlord!

He joined the [Legion], but he didn't create it.

At first he was just the deputy commander.

But later the legion commander died in the challenge, and Zongze had no choice but to take over.

Now his [Mountain Legion] has become the number one army in the region.

To be honest, he didn't put much thought into the construction and development of the legion.

It was only at the suggestion of his men that he would occasionally take the lead in organizing a raid against the natives.

Privately, as a trustworthy regional powerhouse, he will be invited by other nearby lords who are developing well to jointly explore certain ruins.

Cooperation among lords was common.

Many ruins or areas that cannot be explored by a single lord can be successfully conquered by forming a team.

Of course, the loot also has to be distributed.

The Buddhist Aze is not only powerful, but also has no stain in the cooperation.

This level of trust made him a favorite, and he accumulated a good reputation among the lords.

At present, his reputation is limited to areas within a few hundred kilometers of his territory.

Basically, several small circles have been formed here, and there is an ecology that conforms to the development rules of the lords.

Zong Shen, who had a small assistant, took a completely different path and could not experience the ordinary life and daily life of such an ordinary lord.

The two brothers each have their own development strategies and lifestyles.

No matter which method it is, as long as it suits you, it is the best.

"ha…"

Zongze yawned slowly, feeling sleepy.

In fact, he can have a strong energy level as long as he maintains the state of Arcane Spirit.

But he is not willing and still likes to maintain his human body.

Being sleepy is not a bad thing for Zongze, but a pleasant thing.

For him, never getting tired is a very terrible attribute.

Only fatigue and sleepiness can reveal the comfort and beauty of rest.

If there is no comparison, there will be no enjoyment.

Just like hunger, taste and smell, food becomes a pleasure.

Sleepiness makes sleep enjoyable.

Sexual desire makes love between men and women enjoyable.

It must be said that Zongze's attitude towards life is still very open-minded.

Just as he yawned and was about to summon the heroic talents responsible for excavation of the ruins to inquire about the progress, a sudden change occurred in the ruins not far ahead.

"Boom!"

The mysterious light shield protecting the ruins suddenly flickered.

It released a strong light that actually illuminated a small half of the night sky.

A conservative estimate is that the abnormality here can be seen within a radius of hundreds of kilometers!

"Sir...sir!"

"The excavation team dug up two statues. The ruins were touched and new changes appeared!"

Not long after, an orc hero wearing heavy armor came hurriedly with a battle ax on his back.

It knelt down on one knee and reported the situation to Zongze in a hurried tone.

At this time, Zongze had already stood up. He narrowed his eyes and took out a withered severed finger with his backhand.

The severed finger was very large and obviously not human.

Even though it has become shriveled, it is still much thicker than a human hand.

At the same time, the light of the mask suddenly dimmed.

It was replaced by a projection that was a hundred meters high.

This projected image is that of a certain orc prophet, wearing a crown with colorful feathers and an animal skin coat. His face and body are covered with mysterious shaman tattoos.

The index finger of its right hand was broken, and its face looked very vicissitudes of life.

When the projection appeared, its eyes never left Zongze.

"New Era."

"Humanity…"

"It seems that the descendants of my beast clan have finally been defeated in the battle of heaven's choice."

The projection suddenly spoke, its voice hoarse and deep, like a war cry.

There was a sense of unwillingness and emotion in his tone.

"Hehehe..."

Zongze ignored it.

His exploratory wisdom taught him to talk less and wait and see more when faced with this situation.

After all, dealing with the projection left by the ancient orcs, if you talk randomly and disagree, it can easily go wrong.

Let’s get to know the other person’s details first before talking about it.

After all, he doesn't have a strategy module, so he seems to be more stubborn in many things.

This is also the normal choice for most ordinary lords.

The projection of the ancient orc prophet suddenly laughed.

Smiling, a line of tears fell from the corner of his eyes.

It's like after sleeping for many years, seeing the scene where things and people have changed, it can't help but burst into tears.

The shrinkage and decadence of the race has become a destined destiny.

The first person to restart the King's Sacrifice is actually a human being!

The silent and strange atmosphere did not last long.

After crying, the orc projection quickly accepted the fact.

It wiped away the tears with its withered hands and stared at Zongze with a complicated expression.

"Well, human being, it seems that you got the token I left behind!"

"The place where the king sacrifices is not allowed to be desecrated by foreigners."

"But the years have changed and the era has changed. Our family is no longer able to restart the royal altar."

"I, Lor'themar Flying Skull, the great prophet of the Royal Sacrifice Guardian Clan, grant you permission to open the Royal Sacrifice Altar."

"But while inheriting the legacy of King Sacrifice, you will also take on the responsibility of suppressing it."

"The royal altar contains the inherited weapons left by the great chief, but this place also suppresses and bans multi-legged monsters from the nightmare tidal dimension."

"As long as the inheritance is taken away, the suppression ban will be triggered."

"Are you ready?"

The shadow of Lor'themar Flying Skull asked leisurely.

Zongze remained silent, looked down at the severed finger in his hand, and then looked at the ruins in the canyon.

He received a task prompt almost at the same time.

【The choice of the place of suppression】

[Option 1: Open the ancient beast king’s sacrifice place, take away the inherited relics, and trigger the large-scale copy [Nightmare Tide]. The countdown to opening is 45 days]

[Option 2: Re-seal the ancient place of worship of the Beast King, obtain the special title [Suppressor], and place the ruins under a 1,000-year reinforcement seal]

…

Look at the choices that come to mind.

After just a moment of hesitation, Zongze made a decision in his heart.

"I choose..."

…

A golden banner announcement appears.

Zong Shen, who was playing in the lake with the other girls in the manor, raised his head and then looked surprised.

[Lord Zongze 2000612 triggers the catastrophic change of the second era]

[The current disaster site is located in the west of Rhodok Kingdom...]

[It is expected that the portal will be opened in forty-five days]

[Multi-legged monsters will pour out through the portal. Killing the corresponding monster will get 150% of the experience value and related tokens]

[At the same time, a token exchange mall will be placed near the portal, which can be exchanged by lords who already own relevant tokens]

[The opening progress of this portal is 1%. As time goes by and the process changes, the related opening progress will continue to increase]

[Details will be subject to subsequent announcements]

…

"Hiss, Aze also triggered a large copy?"

Zong Shen was floating in the water, feeling a little shocked as he watched the golden subtitles floating in the sky.

He, Chen Rui, and Aze have become the "Three Musketeers" among the lords.

They have successively triggered the suppression of extra-dimensional copies in large ruins in different areas.

This spurt of dungeons seems to indicate that large dungeons are one of the ways for lords to withstand the test and increase their profits in the next stage.

[In view of the general environment, this site may be closed at any time. Please move to the permanently operating source-changing App as soon as possible. 】

In the future, as more large-scale ruins are excavated, more copies may appear.

Zong Shen wasn't too worried about this, since he had already secured one in advance.

Just wait until the official opening to collect the tickets happily.

And he himself can participate in activities at any time.

Thinking of this, Zong Shen casually opened the [Channel], found Zong Ze, and left a message for his brother to ask about the situation.

Then they continued to play in the water, and it was already night.

But the white crystal lighting makes the manor very bright.

The change of ownership of Count Lyce's estate went unnoticed.

Even the Elf Eyes, who often paid attention to this place, did not come to investigate as usual due to internal disputes.

Zong Shen has made up his mind that he will not go out before the competition begins.

Lie down for a few days and summarize all aspects of the situation.

…

In the castle of Marquis Henry.

Since the arrival of Prince Carter, the banquet every night has become more sumptuous.

"So you don't plan to participate in the competition in person?"

"It's such a pity that the young talents in the giant city of Lentax have no chance to see your grace."

Marquis Henry Lancaster, who was sitting on the main seat, picked up his napkin, gently wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth, and asked Prince Carter calmly.

Prince Carter, who was sitting next to Miss Penny, nodded.

His eyes were sinister and his expression was very ugly.

Because his close personal guard, [Halfling Scout Da Majia] really disappeared.

Although the soul token has not been broken yet, he himself has not returned yet.

The security forces sent out to assist in the search found nothing and only found traces of the battle in the alley.

Judging from the extent of the damage, the person who abducted Da Majia is definitely a legend, and he is also a high-level powerhouse.

As a legendary scout, Dar Maja can still escape even if he cannot defeat Ben.

But he couldn't even escape, which meant that the other party was far more powerful than him!

In addition, Prince Carter personally led the security forces to the slave trading house to inquire about the situation.

However, no useful information was obtained. The other party had undergone physical disguise.

This is a simple and effective way to change your appearance.

It just stands to reason that for a strong man of the opponent's level, there is absolutely no need to be sneaky and disguised.

And if the other party showed his strength openly, then he would definitely not let Da Majia take revenge.

Prince Carter doesn't even understand what it means to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger.

The aborigines of the Endless Continent have relatively direct thinking and have legendary high-level strength. As long as they show it, they will naturally gain respect.

He really didn't understand why the other party wanted to do this.

But the matter has come to this, his personal guard has indeed been captured, and the other party has not yet asked him for ransom.

This made him lose his sense of security in the giant city of Lentax.

In addition, because of this incident, he once again paid attention to the neglected Calamity Raven Church.

In the past two days, I used the contacts I had gathered in advance to conduct investigations, and I actually found some clues.

He found that the people from the Calamity Raven Church did not listen to his words and evacuate obediently, but instead stayed dormant in the city.

And they are secretly recruiting people. In just a few days, thousands of elites have arrived.

The trouble doesn't stop there. While investigating the Calamity Raven Church, Prince Carter also discovered that another group of unknown people had arrived in the giant city.

If Marquis Henry hadn't been determined to wait until the end of the athletic competition and Miss Penny's birthday party before letting him leave with Miss Penny, I'm afraid Prince Carter would have chosen to run away.

Now, just in case, he is asking Duke Jonathan to send new strong men to respond at all costs!
