Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

Lean lazily by the spring pool.

Zong Shen's face was full of contentment.

The timing training ground is indeed a good thing, allowing him to unpack and deal with some things leisurely.

After resting for a while, he casually took out the first [Special] level item.

It was a mushroom that didn't look fancy in appearance, but the cap was really quite big, almost as big as half a face.

Its flesh looks thick and elastic to the touch, and there is no powder spilled on it.

It feels cool and moist, but doesn't have a slippery, sticky texture.

The biggest feature of this unknown mushroom is not its unique appearance, but its faintly intoxicating smell.

Less than half a minute after taking it out, the smell around it changed significantly.

The bodies of the logistics heroes standing nearby began to shake. Their attributes were average and their resistance to various passive control effects was very low.

Zong Shen felt nothing.

The smell emitted by this mushroom has a hallucinogenic effect, but presumably friendly forces should be immune to some of the effects.

Otherwise, I was just afraid that the heroes around me would have fallen to the ground and passed out.

Its name is [Drunk Mushroom (Special)], and Zong Shen can guess some clues just by looking at the name.

As the name suggests, its function must be intoxication, but as a [special] level item, it must have other uses.

Zong Shen moved his two fingers lightly, twisting the fungus stem and turning it.

Immediately, he narrowed his eyes slightly and checked its properties.

【Drunk Mushroom (Special)】

[Quality: Special]

[Effect: Intoxication effect (Intoxication mushrooms contain special ingredients that can be used to brew alcohol or related drinks. The alcohol brewed from these raw materials can make the drinker enter a drunken state regardless of the physical impact)]

[Each portion of intoxicated mushrooms can be used to produce related items in varying amounts]

(The stronger you are, the harder it is to get drunk.

However, wine or drinks brewed from intoxicating mushrooms can make those with strong physiques fall into a state of drunkenness.

Keep it, maybe it will come in handy in the future)

…

Zong Shen scratched his head, and for a moment he really couldn't think of its specific application point.

Judging from the information in the notes, this is a brewing material.

Apart from making people drunk, it has no other additional effects.

He was not an alcoholic and had difficulty understanding the desire to get drunk.

Therefore, no one can guarantee whether this [Intoxicating Mushroom (Special)] can be used.

But he can prepare the territory's workshops first.

It just so happens that there are all breweries and pharmaceutical workshops in the territory.

The related intoxicating mushroom drinks and intoxicating potions can be prepared for production.

After carefully sealing the [Drunken Mushroom (Special)], Zong Shen took out the second item.

This is a slender arrow, its arrowhead is extremely sharp and glows with a bit of cold light.

The arrow shaft is non-glossy black.

There are no traces of runes on it.

There are only dents left from the splicing, which makes it look a little weird.

Other than that, there's nothing too special about it.

But Zong Shen understood that this arrow must have special attack skills.

It is rare to see arrows among items of this level [Special].

Therefore, there is a high probability that it will not be an ordinary product. The only difference lies in the characteristics of the effect and whether it can be used immediately.

Zong Shen held the arrow shaft and thought for a moment before choosing to check.

A detailed list appeared in front of him, revealing the nature of the item to him.

[Shadow Hunting Differentiation Arrow (Special)]

[Quality: Special]

[Basic puncture damage: 1600]

[Effect: Shadow hunting differentiation (after launching, it can lock on 1200 enemies at the same time for attack. Each hit will cause additional penetration effect. After the attack is completed, the arrow body will automatically return)]

[Current number of uses: 120/120]

[Every time you kill 1,000 targets, you can recover one use]

(Arrows capable of splitting attacks are very powerful. They are good at dealing with clusters of enemies and have the ability to strike beyond visual range.

The hunting effect makes it almost perfect, and its powerful covering strike ability allows it to quickly destroy groups of enemies.

The main thing is a practical one)

…

"Well, it is indeed very practical, but it is also a little unremarkable."

Compared with other [special] level items, it is indeed a bit ordinary.

Of course, the effect is relatively straightforward.

That is the split attack, which can attack 1,200 targets at the same time, comes with an automatic locking hunting effect, and can be used a full 120 times.

And the number of uses can be restored by killing it.

If you control its attack target properly and increase the kill rate, you might be able to cycle it infinitely.

Secondly, it has no durability limit. Theoretically, when the number of times is exhausted, it will only be unable to use the effect of [Shadow Hunting Dividing Arrow].

It can still be used as a single arrow or for stabbing.

What's more, the piercing damage it comes with is also relatively high.

If paired with a high-level longbow, it can directly deal explosive damage.

It can basically achieve an instant kill effect against targets below a certain level.

Other than that, there's nothing too unusual about it.

Sheath this arrow.

It is a good treasure for the people who mainly use bows.

Zong Shen was ready to reward him.

He is not used to using a bow, and he does not lack a wide range of destructive means at hand.

Therefore, although this arrow is good, it does not mean much to him personally.

However, there are not many people in the territory who can control it.

Shaking his head, he put away the [Shadow Hunting Splitting Arrow (Special)] for now.

Wait until there is a suitable candidate.

The territory currently lacks high-level shooter heroes.

Perhaps you can search among the elves and find a marksman with legendary strength.

Zong Shen put away his thoughts and took out the next [special] item with his backhand.

That's a page of commandments.

It was densely covered with words the size of mosquitoes and flies.

These words are very clear when you read them briefly.

But when you want to take a closer look, it becomes extremely blurry and cannot be viewed and understood.

Zong Shen didn't have many ideas to delve into such a fascinating item.

Because it appears that these words are integrated with the paper, this should be a strange object.

So what matters is its overall function, not the fancy text content.

This paper commandment looks extremely complicated.

The whole body exudes a special majestic aura, as well as a kind of tyranny stemming from evil.

But that kind of tyranny was firmly suppressed by certain rules.

To use an intuitive description, it is the devil in a cage.

The devil is scary, but his cage is also unbreakable.

This weird feeling made Zong Shen both fearful and relieved about it.

Its name is [Demon King's Commandment (Special)], which is a quite domineering name.

At the same time, it also made Zong Shen more curious about his specific role.

Generally, items with precepts and laws in their names often have rule-like effects attached to them.

With a little idea in his mind, Zong Shen began to check its detailed information.

【Demon King's Commandments (Special)】

[Quality: Special]

[Discipline I: Absolute Honesty (You can designate a target to be absolutely honest in the next 3 minutes and unable to tell any lies. This commandment requires an interval of 1 hour between uses, and the same target will only be affected once in three days)]

[Discipline II: Loyal Guard (you can designate a target to loyally guard you within 1 minute, unable to harm you, and will counterattack the target that attacks you. Each use of this command requires an interval of 12 hours, and the same The target will only be affected once in six days)]

[Commandment III: Four Phase Reversal (You can choose to designate a target to reverse the four major attributes in the next 10 minutes. Each use of this commandment requires a 48-hour interval, and the same target will only be affected once within twelve days)]

[The Demon King’s commandments cannot be violated]

[Contains the devil's thoughts, long-term exposure will be affected to a certain extent]

(The Demon King’s commandments designated by the former Ninth Demon King of the Abyss using the power of his whole body and soul as a medium

Its power is enough to affect weaker gods

Please do not use precepts frequently, otherwise you will be easily affected. It contains the demonic nature of the Ninth Demon King, which can affect people's hearts.

If you become dependent on it, you will also be controlled by the devil)

…

After seeing its effect, Zong Shen's eyes suddenly lit up because its effect was so powerful.

This kind of rule-like objects carries the rhythm of words and laws.

Each of the three major precepts has its own characteristics.

[Absolute Honesty] is equivalent to the truth-telling spell. The other party can choose to remain silent, but if used quietly, it should have some unexpected effects.

[Loyal Guard] can make an enemy defect in battle. Although the effect is relatively short-lived, it can also have some unexpected effects.

The most powerful skill is undoubtedly [Four Phase Reversal], which can exchange the four major attributes.

Not only can it be used on enemies, it can also be used on yourself.

Use this ability to adjust your own attributes to make your weak points balanced.

But because its essence is a swap, you have to be careful to avoid replacing the originally strong attributes.

If you are facing an enemy, just replace the opponent's weakest attribute with the strongest.

This move is very destructive.

Unless you are a bucket fighter with no shortcomings, everything will be affected.

Zong is an exception.

He originally focused on [power].

But in the process of inheriting the attributes of Demon Hunter Illidan Stormrage, he first obtained [Wisdom].

As a result, his [Wisdom] attribute skyrocketed and surpassed [Strength].

He only needs to exchange [Wisdom] for [Strength] or [Agility], and his strength will be greatly improved again.

He can cut people down like a fish in water.

So this [Demon King’s Contract (Special)] is really good.

Zong Shen believes that as long as it is used properly, it can easily solve many problems.

However, the note also mentioned that frequent use of contracts will be affected by the devil's will.

Although his mental and soul resistance was very high, he was not prepared to touch the so-called Ninth Demon King.

So Zong Shen plans to use it with caution.

Or let his subordinates and subordinates use it instead, and try to reduce the number of times he uses it himself. This should be able to avoid risks to a certain extent.

Anyway, the idea of ​​​​operation is this.

Zong Shen carefully put away this [Demon King Contract (Special)].

Its value is very high, and its benefits are endless when used properly.

Carefully put it into the storage compartment.

Zong Shen flicked his wrist and took out a dark blue stone.

The rock is as big as a melon.

There are wavy patterns on the surface.

He raised his hand and touched the stone gently, and lines of prompts appeared in front of him.

[Lifetime conversion, you can exchange options if you are willing]

[Lifetime conversion attribute]

[Life-span conversion wonder]

[Life conversion gain effect]

[Life conversion equipment]

【Lifespan Conversion Set】

[Conversion can only be used 3 times]

[Current number of uses remaining: 3/3]

…

There is no need to check its function, it has already been demonstrated, that is, it uses lifespan to convert it into specified items.

But it can only be used three times.

This made Zong Shen greatly disappointed.

His lifespan is nearly unlimited and can be squandered and redeemed at will.

He thought for a while and clicked on each option.

[Life conversion attribute]

[Consumption of 1 to 999 years of life, exchange for 1 to 999 free attribute points]

…

[Life-span conversion wonder]

[Consume 999 years of life to exchange for a random high-level rare item]

…

[Life conversion gain effect]

[Consume 999 years of life to exchange for a random high-level positive gain]

…

[Life conversion equipment]

[Consume 999 years of life to exchange for a random high-end equipment]

…

【Lifespan Conversion Kit】

[Consume 999 years of life to exchange for a random suit that suits your own characteristics]

…

Zong Shen was silent for a moment.

A life span of 999 years is nothing to him.

It's nothing even to those immortal species, so Zong Shen is not sure whether its reward is good or bad.

Simply put, changing attributes is the most direct way to gain, and 999 free attribute points is not a lot.

But in the long run, the benefits are not that great.

Even if you exchange it three times, you will only get two to three thousand attribute points.

And the attribute points he inherited from Illidan Stormrage were in the thousands.

In contrast, this attribute is completely unattractive, or it is not worth wasting the opportunity to redeem.

The next few options are obviously uncertain.

Zong Shen knew that there were pros and cons among these choices.

So how to choose is very important.

Good decisions get twice the result with half the effort.

Bad decisions lead to half the effort.

Although he doesn't care about the life span consumption, the number of redemptions is limited after all.

It would be a pity to waste it like this.

The next few options are all gambling.

Rare items, buffs, gear, sets, and more.

The gain here should be permanent.

Equipment and suits were the options that Zong Shen subsequently eliminated. He seriously doubted that the equipment and suits that could be exchanged for 999 years of life would not reach high-end levels at all.

Therefore, the most cost-effective redemption options are rare items and buffs.

Of course, both options are equally uncertain.

"Difficult."

"The pattern of lifespan conversion is small."

"If the starting point is 9999 years or 99999 years of life, then I will definitely be more confident."

Zong Shen frowned slightly and muttered to himself melancholy.

What he said was the truth. If the convertible lifespan was more, then he would be more confident.

But now, Zong Shen is really not sure.
