Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

In particular, the lord system also provides considerate time-stop redemption time.

Being able to stop time and space for lords to exchange, this alone is enough to change the fate of those lords who are in crisis.

Zong Shen had finished all the exchanges, and now he could only wait patiently for the end of the pause. His eyes looked at the headless corpses piled up next to the blood pool, of which kobolds accounted for the majority, with as many as one or two hundred.

I am afraid that the kobold tribe in this area has lost many members to the hunting of spider web monsters.

Those guys are all excellent miners, and Zong Shen was originally planning to form a kobold mining group.

I hope the kobold tribe will not be completely wiped out. These guys are his miner reserves.

The remaining few minutes of stoppage time passed quickly, and the surrounding time and space returned to normal.

The soldiers were unaware of the stagnation of time and space and were still packing up the scattered equipment.

"Colby, these are new sabers for your Wolf Riding Team."

"Madeline, Mapel, these two bows and these sets of fine-grade arrows are given to you."

Zong Shen took out the equipment he had exchanged before and changed the equipment for his soldiers first.

Colby led the warriors of the Wolf Cavalry team to receive the [sharp prairie saber]. Their original standard equipment attributes ranged from ordinary to sophisticated.

Now after replacing it with an excellent saber, the per capita slashing damage has been increased by more than 10 points.

As a third-level unit, the Dragon Ranger sisters have standard equipment that is slightly better than that of the Wolf Cavalry, with attributes ranging from fine to excellent. These are all forged and produced by the military industrial organizations of their respective kingdoms and forces.

Higher-level professional soldiers tend to be equipped with better equipment. Some high-level soldiers from ancient forces are even equipped with rare-level equipment. The number of high-level soldiers is relatively rare, so the equipment is also of higher quality.

The second and third levels are basically the main force of all major forces, the first level militia are the main force of major villages and towns, and the fourth, fifth and even sixth level soldiers are relatively small numbers of elite warriors for any force.

Because the higher the level of soldiers, the higher the training threshold and resource consumption, so there is a pyramid-shaped proportional structure from low-level soldiers to high-level soldiers.

Compared with soldier advancement, upgrading and changing equipment are the most direct ways to improve the strength of soldiers.

All the soldiers who received the new equipment were very happy, and the loyalty of the wolf riders was greatly improved.

"Colby, you guys throw all the corpses into the pool and set them on fire. Be careful not to ignite the nearby spider webs."

"Others went to decompose the corpses of the spider web monsters, and collected useful materials such as the limbs, blade legs, carapace, and poison sacs separately."

Zong Shen waved his hand and began to issue orders, and all the soldiers began to get busy.

"By the way, Pierce and Carlos, you stay, I have something to tell you."

He suddenly called out to the two Goblin Ripper pilots who were walking towards the spiderweb monster's corpse in the mine hall.

Pierce and Carlos were stunned for a moment, stopped, and slowly controlled the mecha to turn around.

When he walked in front of Zong Shen, he got off the mecha and bowed down to salute Zong Shen.

A sly smile appeared on the green face, with wrinkles forming.

"Hehe... Your Majesty is so majestic and domineering that even the powerful spider web monster lord can only drink hatred when facing you."

"The previous battle was really shocking!"

"It is an honor for us to follow you!"

"I wonder if your lord has any tasks for us?"

The two goblin pilots began to flatter each other.

They were actually a little guilty. When the blood pool changed, they simply chose to escape without any intention of rescuing Zong Shen.

This is not only due to loyalty, but more to their innate character.

Goblins are a cunning race, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is almost an instinct engraved in their blood.

In the Endless Continent, the most notorious mercenaries are the goblin mercenaries. These guys often run away from battle and are even bribed by the enemy to turn against their original owners.

Zong Shen stretched out his hand to gently cover the wound under his ribs, and looked at the two goblins who were trying to compliment him, showing a mocking smile.

Suddenly he stretched out two knuckles and tapped them on the head.

"Bang! Bang!"

With Zong Shen's strength attribute of 43 points, even though he was tapping with his knuckles, his strength was still considerable.

Two big bumps suddenly swelled up on the heads of the two goblins.

This is the real beating.

【-twenty two】

【-19】

Two damage values ​​actually appeared.

…

"It hurts, it hurts! Sir, please spare my life!"

"My head was knocked upside down!"

The two goblins covered their heads and screamed in pain, and began to kneel down and beg for mercy.

Zong Shen put away his hand and looked at them with his chin in one hand.

"You two escaped very quickly!"

"Running away before the battle is a shame for the oath you swore to me."

"Now, you two tell yourselves how I should punish you?"

The two goblin pilots were already feeling guilty. Now that they heard that Zong Shen wanted to pursue the case, they became even more panicked. They knelt on the ground and pressed their swollen heads to the ground.

He hurriedly began to beg for mercy.

"Sir, we will never dare to run away from the battlefield..."

"We will definitely become your most loyal subordinates, even if you let us cut wood every day!"

"Please give us a chance..."

The scene where Zong Shen transformed into a demon and swallowed his heart has been deeply burned into their minds. Zong Shen at this time is full of endless oppression for them.

The strength of a lord itself is also a kind of majesty. A lord with weak strength will inevitably lack some prestige for these professional soldiers.

"Hmph, everyone, get up and go help with the work. Next time I will leave you to feed the wolves, do you understand?"

Zong Shen saw that the beating was almost done, so he didn't bother to say anything more.

The two goblin pilots felt like they had been granted amnesty and thanked Zong Shen profusely, grateful for his tolerance and kindness.

【Because of your majesty and rebuke】

[The Goblin Ripper pilot Steelfire Pierce's loyalty to you increases by 8 points, and the current loyalty is 90]

[The loyalty of Goblin Ripper pilot Carlos Carlos to you has been increased by 9 points, and the current loyalty is 92]

The initial loyalty of the two goblin pilots was actually not too low, but these two guys were obviously no longer able to become Zong Shen's confidants.

After beating up the two goblin pilots, Zong Shen was ready to start exploring the mining area dormitory.

In the mine hall, there are rooms carved out along the rock wall.

Every room is not small. There are dozens of rooms under this circle of rock walls.

In all the rooms where previous guides indicated that there were treasure chests or leftover items, golden light and shadow prompts appeared.

Zong Shen's gaze swept across all the rooms, and there were four light and shadow prompts in total.

He chose the room closest to his position, a room in the middle, and walked up quickly.

He took out the Guards Sword with one hand and began to clear away the cobwebs inside and outside the room.

This place has been occupied by the spider web monster group all year round as its lair, and almost every room is filled with spider webs.

Just like piles of snow-white cotton wool, being in this spider web monster's nest will make people instinctively feel uncomfortable.

Zong Shen used the guard sword to clear a passage in the room. The interior of the dormitory area was also deserted and desolate.

Thousands of years are enough to decay many traces.

Finally, Zong Shen found a small rattan box with a simple appearance deep in the room.

Being able to last thousands of years without decay, this little rattan box must be a good magic item.

But there must be no equipment or weapons here, otherwise it would have been looted by the spider web monster lord.

The equipment of the entire spider web monster group was collected by his spider web monster lord from the ruins deep in the mine.

If there really was any good equipment in this rattan box, he would have taken it away long ago.

Nine times out of ten, it is something that has no effect on him, so it will be left idle here and continue to eat dust.

Zong Shen picked up the small rattan box and walked out of the room covered with cobwebs. According to the tips from the previous guide, there should be clues about the secret stronghold of the Elf Resistance Army.

He came to a slightly flatter place on the surrounding ground and put the rattan box down.

The box was not locked, so Zong Shen opened it easily.

Inside was a silver-white rune key and a crescent badge with a missing corner.

At the bottom, there is half a piece of tawny skin with some tattoos on it, which seems to be a map.

Zong Shen saw the Bone Burial Ground across the map. It was obvious that the location marked on this map was outside the mine.

The Elf Resistance Army, Jiao Tu San Cao, did not place all their strongholds in the mines.

However, this mine is also one of the most important resistance strongholds for the Elf Resistance and subsequent support to the Alliance.

The skin was damaged, half of the map tattoo was missing, and the exact location could not be compared. However, Zong Shen didn't care. With the guide module and the clues in his hand, he was able to find the ruins.

He spread the rune key, the missing crescent badge and the somewhat scary tattooed map on the ground.

Being able to use skin tattoos as a way to preserve the location is enough to prove that the secret stronghold still has some reputation.

The battle that year was extremely brutal, with both sides exerting almost all their strength.

Many ruins and secret strongholds fell with the fall of Azshara and the end of the Great War.

A large amount of war equipment and materials are left in these ancient ruins, and these ruins will eventually become the most valuable resources for Zong Shen's development!

Thinking of this, he began to scan the items with his eyes, expecting to get more information from the prompts.

Although the strategy module is omniscient and omnipotent, Zong Shen still needs to master some clues to get the answer. It will only give hints and answers based on clues and questions that Zong Shen already knows.

[Rune Key (Purple)]

[Quality: rare grade]

[A key that can be used to open a strong rune door]

(The key to opening the secret stronghold of the Elf Resistance Army is forged entirely with rune mithril)

[Broken crescent moon emblem (special)]

[The token left by Commander Crescent Moon]
