Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

Latest URL: When the news reached City Hall.

Zong Shen was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window looking at the scenery.

Suddenly, the [Communication Crystal] he wore on his chest lit up.

Glancing down, he saw that it was a communication number with a hundred digits after it.

This means that the people sending the communication are other heroic talents in the territory.

As for Zong Shen's communication number, which is easiest to remember, it is 1.

In other words, all heroes in the territory know very well that if they want to contact the lord, they only need to dial 1.

Raising his hand to take off the [Communication Crystal], Zong Shen chose to connect.

A rich male voice came from the other end of the crystal.

"Lord Lord."

"I am Jair Sarabia, the adjutant of the eastern garrison of the territory."

"My highest respect to you."

This guy Zong Shen is vaguely impressed.

It seems that he is a fighting hero that he inherited from other lords after Enma challenged him.

He has a purple rare talent and is good at dual swords.

There is an infantry garrison talent called [Matrix Defense] in [Hero Skills].

Therefore, it is not surprising that he is promoted to garrison adjutant now. It can only be said to be a routine operation.

The other party obviously understood that Zong Shen had not had much dealings with him.

So I got straight to the point and announced my name first.

"I remember you Yael."

"What's matter?"

he asked succinctly.

Normally, unless there is some situation, these heroes in the territory know their limits and will never use [Communication Crystal] to chat with him.

So Zong Shen also chose to ask straight to the point.

After hearing this, Yair Sarabia stopped wasting time and quickly reported the report.

"The ruler of Bosbon, Baron Bezos Chebman, has come to visit you."

"They came with a whole caravan, followed by about two squadrons of Avalon cavalry."

After hearing Yair's report, Zong Shen immediately raised his eyebrows.

His expression also became a little weird.

"Baron Bezos..."

"Why did he come here?"

He hasn't contacted Baron Bezos for a while.

To be honest, Baron Bezos provided him with a lot of help in the early days of Advent.

Even on the eve of the winter challenge, Bospan sold him the cold-proof materials in stock at cost price.

Since then, the two parties have explored the ruins of the Knights of the Lion's residence together.

Moreover, during the conversation in the Baron's Castle, Baron Bezos once mentioned the Chosen Son.

He also hinted that Zong Shen asked him to let Bosi Bang go when the time comes.

This incident shocked Zong at the time.

It was also since then that he understood that the Chosen One was not an absolute secret to the aborigines.

Guys like Baron Bezos who love exploring and reading books still have a chance to get a clue.

Thinking of this, Zong Shen had some vague guesses in his mind.

"Let them in."

"They are guests."

"Accept guests as you would a guest."

"I'll wait for them in the hall of the Lord's Fortress."

He warned seriously.

"I understand, sir."

Jair Sarabia also hurriedly answered.

After hanging up the communication, Zong Shen placed the [Communication Crystal] in front of the armor again.

He twisted his neck, doubts flashing in his eyes.

This confusion soon turned into relief.

Smiling and shaking his head, he directly activated [Fantasy God Flash] and returned to the lord's fortress.

…

The eastern part of the territory.

Baron Bezos in the carriage did not wait long.

He sat in the car, lifted a corner of the car curtain, and looked at the city in front of him that was beginning to take shape with a complicated expression.

In his memory, this place was not like this.

But the fact was before his eyes, and the shock it brought left Baron Bezos speechless.

Although Zong Shen's current territory is not as good as the giant city of Lentax.

But it is at least dozens of times larger than Bospan.

If you look at this territory from the sky, it can definitely be called a real behemoth.

The briefing ended quickly, the city gates were opened, and sergeants lined up on the roadside.

As their carriage drove in, the sergeants blew their horns.

This is a very high welcome standard.

Ordinary visitors do not enjoy such treatment.

Baron Bezos's motorcade stopped in an empty field in the East District.

Several commander-level griffins with comfortable saddles on their backs are already waiting here.

The speed of the carriage was too slow. It would take at least more than an hour to move slowly from the East District to the Lord's Fortress.

Time is money, so Zong Shen sent out a team of griffons.

The commander-level griffin is huge and can accommodate seven or eight people riding together.

Enough for Baron Bezos to take his guards and confidants to the Lord's Fortress

But forget about the accompanying cavalry and guards.

Zong Shen's lord's fortress is not a vegetable market. It would be too embarrassing if hundreds of big soldiers swarmed in noisily.

Baron Bezos is not a fool and naturally understands this truth.

Under the guidance of the waiter, they got on the griffins respectively. After everyone was in place, the spiritual griffins immediately fluttered their wings and flew towards the lord's fortress.

The Commander-level Griffin, flying at full speed, arrived at its destination in just a few minutes.

Looking down at Zong Shen's territory from the air, Baron Bezos became even more shocked.

We also have a more intuitive understanding of the current gap between the two parties.

When the gryphon came over the Lord's Fortress, Baron Bezos saw the blood ice sitting in the fortress' courtyard like a giant sculpture.

Faced with his gaze, Xue Bing also noticed it. His huge eyes looked back at Baron Bezos, which immediately made his heart beat wildly.

Fortunately, many years of being in charge of Bangcheng had made his mentality tough enough, and he didn't appear to be too out of shape. However, his awe for Zong Shen in his heart increased a bit.

At the same time, I also felt a sense of powerlessness.

"Is this the Chosen One?"

"In less than two months, such a huge territory was established, with a population of nearly ten million, and such a terrifying giant as his subordinates..."

The thoughts in his heart were surging, and it wasn't until the gryphon landed that he could barely control his thoughts that were spreading unconsciously.

Outside the lord's fortress, there was already a beautiful maid waiting with a bouquet.

In his haste, this was the best reception etiquette that Zong Shen could prepare.

As the city lord's mansion continues to upgrade, the lord's fortress also becomes larger and larger.

Whether it is cleaning or taking care of daily life, the participation of maids is indispensable.

These maids are selected from the female citizens in the territory, mainly young and beautiful.

As the population of the territory continues to grow, it is not difficult to select suitable maids.

Baron Bezos got off the back of the griffin and stepped onto the steps into the fortress with only two of his confidants.

The rest of the entourage were taken to a rest house next to the fort.

Rococo-style buildings are quite atmospheric.

The same is true inside the fort.

At this time, Baron Bezos looked at the decorations curiously, his eyes flashing with surprise all the time.

His current behavior is very much like Zong Shen who entered the Baron's Castle for the first time.

In less than two months, the two successfully reversed roles.

Baron Bezos became a country bumpkin who had never seen the world, while Zong Shen became a high-class host.

Arriving at the living room, Baron Bezos finally saw Zong Shen sitting in the front seat.

Seeing this old friend, Mr. Zong also had a smile on his face.

No matter how you look at it, Baron Bezos is a very interesting guy.

Zong Shen has never forgotten his help to him.

Now, it's almost time to give back.

Regardless of Baron Bezos's psychology at that time, he extended a helping hand to him.

Zong Shendu thanked him from the bottom of his heart.

So he stood up decisively after seeing Baron Bezos.

On the spot, Bezos was hesitant, not knowing whether to salute or interact as equals as before.

His personal heart was inclined to the latter, but what he saw and heard along the way made him feel that he should salute.

Little Bosbon is nothing compared to this place.

While he was struggling, Zong Shen strode up to him.

He raised his arms and gave him a bear hug.

"Brother Bezos, we haven't seen each other for a while."

He took the initiative to say hello.

This made Baron Bezos feel relaxed, and he looked at Zong Shen with a hint of gratitude.

"Yes, brother Zong Shen."

After he relaxed a little, he was no longer so restrained.

Both parties took their seats,

In fact, Zong Shen did not completely give up on Bosbon's layout.

Zong Shen and Bezos chatted for a while.

At that time, after he solved Evans, he had a long chat with the baron in the castle.

At that time, he had just obtained the [100-kilometer-level teleportation array construction plan] and was planning to open a small shop in Bosibon and build a teleportation point.

When Bezos knew that Zong Shen wanted to buy real estate in Bosbon.

He stood up directly and took off the map of Bosbon City hanging on the wall of the living room behind him.

He spread it out on the round table and drew a dozen small circles in the middle city and lower city with a wave of his hand.

These circles are Baron Bezos's own properties, and they are basically entire buildings of residences and shops.

The baron said that Zong Shen could choose any area within the circle he drew.

To be honest, he was shocked by the behavior of such a rich man at the time.

Recommend through the guide system.

He finally chose a shop with a small courtyard in Zhongcheng District.

The location of that shop is not very good, but the area is not small.

It has three floors and occupies an entire residential building.

The area was large enough to fully meet Zong Shen's needs at that time.

In addition to housing the teleportation array, some small businesses can also be run on the first and second floors.

Of course, the teleportation array was later installed, but the small business was not done.

Before taking over the city of Seakabang, the territory often purchased supplies from Bosbang.

But Bosi State is only a state-level city after all, and its material supply and turnover are limited.

From now on, it will gradually be unable to meet the purchasing needs of the territory.

At that time, the purchasing of the territory was basically transferred to the surrounding giant cities.

In retrospect, the small courtyard shop was given to me by Baron Bezos for free.

As a shop in Bosbon City, its value is at least several hundred thousand dinars.

These were all the favors and conveniences that Baron Bezos exerted on him at the time.

Don't look at the tens of billions of dinars Zong Shen has on hand now.

But in the early days of Advent, getting one hundred thousand dinars was a big deal.

The purchasing power of the dinar lies here.

Thinking back at this time, Zong Shen was also a little sad.

The Evans incident also left deep memories for him.

The two sides exchanged pleasantries for a while and then got down to business.

"Brother Zong Shen."

"do you know?"

"A big thing happened recently!"

Baron Bezos picked up the tea cup and took a sip of high-quality highland black tea.

Then he suddenly lowered his voice and said mysteriously.

Zong Shen roughly knew what he was going to say, but he still pretended not to know on the surface.

"oh?"

"what's going on?"

"Isn't a Kingdom War breaking out?"

The corners of his mouth raised slightly and he asked in a joking tone.

Baron Bezos shook his head, and his expression became serious the next moment.

"No."

"Something happened to the giant city of Lentax."

When he told the news, he silently observed Zong Shen's expression.

But how could Zong Shen reveal any flaws?

Although he understood the purpose of Baron Bezos' visit this time.

But so far Bezos is still an Aboriginal person.

The two sides are not yet their own people in the true sense.

There are some things that are tacitly understood and just don't admit it.

Otherwise, it would be easy for things to undergo unknown changes while Baron Bezos still stands on the Aboriginal side.

Zong Shen showed an expression of surprise, but he was yawning in his heart.

He actually wanted Baron Bezos to speak in a simpler way and omit the progressive emotions.

But after thinking about it, I decided to forget it and just go through the motions by chatting with him.

Seeing Zong Shen's expression, Baron Bezos continued.

"The Calamity Raven Church besieged the giant city of Lentax."

"The third circle is frozen."

"The fighting and looting continued for five days."

"It is said that the heretics completely looted Lentax."

"This incident made Archduke Jonathan furious and sent an army to Lentax, but instead of catching the heretics, the archduke's army encountered a group of bandits."

"There are tens of millions of gangsters..."

Baron Bezos bites particularly hard on the pronunciation of the word "gangster."

Apparently he also had doubts about the origins of those gangsters.

After all, he is an aborigine who knows the concept of the Chosen One.

Zong Shen still maintained a look of surprise and asked following his words.

"Then the area under Lentax's jurisdiction will soon fall into chaos?"

Bosband is part of Lentax.

Naturally, it will also be affected by this incident.

This question hit home and hit Baron Bezos’s worst fears.

So his face suddenly turned a little pale.

After pondering for a moment, he decided to get straight to the point and tell his intention.

"Yes."

"Chaos can come at any time."

"Bosbon's population is small and its military strength is very limited."

"If those gangsters attack as a group, I'm afraid they won't be able to withstand them."

After saying this, he paused for a while and then added.

"So, I have a request."

At this time, he raised his head and looked at Zong Shen, his eyes extremely serious.

This made Zong Shen straighten his sitting posture slightly and signaled him to speak directly.

"I want to take Bosbon to join your territory!"
