Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

This is just the first trip, there are still many victims in the folding space.

Sheriff Zachary called over several teams of swordsmen from the city.

At the same time, he led his men to the second floor of the manor and found some of Evans' old clothes.

Then these poor women will not be exposed naked to everyone's eyes.

In order to maintain the portal, Zong Shen ate three magic crystals to restore his magic value.

After additional manpower was deployed, the second trip finally brought out all the victims.

The total number of victims reached 72.

In fact, this is not exhausted yet, because there are still many suspicious places in the folding space.

At the beginning, there were nearly 200 victims recorded in Bangcheng.

More victims may have suffered accidents.

But at this time, Zong Shen couldn't help but protest.

Maintaining the portal is also very hard.

This consumes a lot of magic power, and someone from his sect is like a tool man at this time.

"Mr. Bezos, we can take our time with the follow-up investigation."

"I have to close the portal."

"This thing requires continuous consumption of magic points."

Zong Shen took the initiative to speak to Bezos.

Hearing Zong Shen say this, a surprised expression appeared on his face.

"magical value?"

"Brother Zong Shen has the talent of being a mage?"

"It turns out that this magic item requires magic value to be driven."

"Turn it off soon. I'll ask the mage from Bangcheng to turn it on later."

Baron Bezos quickly said that since he did not have magic talent, he naturally could not sense magic fluctuations.

Now that he heard what Zong Shen said, he understood.

What surprised him was that Zong Shen actually had magic talent.

Looking at Zong Shen's armor-clad image, Bezos couldn't connect him with Master Fa.

Magicians and high-level knights both have a very transcendent status among aboriginal warriors.

After all, not everyone can possess magical talent.

Even a mage apprentice, as long as he is certified by the mage tower, will be able to enjoy a mage's exclusive allowance the moment he wears the magic badge.

As the level increases, the subsidy level will also increase accordingly.

In contrast, the masters in Zong Shen's territory basically work on a voluntary basis.

After the liberalization reform of the people, Zong Shen also prepared to pay according to the monthly method according to the rank of soldiers.

Only in this way can the territory’s initial internal economic circulation be formed.

While mobilizing enthusiasm, it also stimulates the economic development of the territory.

Brutal warriors are everywhere, and even ordinary farmers have been trained in the barracks.

Anyone who has completed the corresponding training course and reached a certain standard can be called a warrior.

It can be said that the thresholds of warriors and mages are completely different.

The gold content is also completely different.

That's why Baron Bezos was surprised.

"I never thought that brother Zong Shen would be gifted as a mage!"

"You are indeed young and promising!"

"I wonder which type of talent Brother Zong has?"

Baron Bezos asked curiously.

Zong Shen closed the portal and handed the magic crystal to Bezos.

Once the folding space is constructed, it cannot be moved.

This thing is of no use to him anymore.

Handing it over to Baron Bezos honestly is the most worry-free way to deal with it.

Hearing Bezos' praise, Zong Shen just smiled.

"What I have mastered is the talent of thunder magic."

"My talent is not very high, I only know two low-level magics."

He said modestly, not wanting to say anything more on this issue.

Baron Bezos marveled, looking at Zong Shen as if he was seeing some kind of freak.

"Brother Zong, you haven't been to the mage tower in Jucheng yet, have you?"

Zong Shen nodded honestly, there was nothing to hide.

And he also wanted to see what medicine Baron Bezos was selling in his gourd.

It seemed like he had something to tell him.

"If you have a chance, you should go to the Mage Tower."

"All those with mage talents will be trained by the Mage Tower."

"As long as you pass the grade certification, you will get the corresponding grade badge."

"At the same time, you can also enjoy regular wages from Jucheng."

Baron Bezos said with some excitement.

Zong Shen looked a little confused. Isn't it just a magic talent?

Do you deserve to look like this?

In Zong Shen's territory, those masters were no different from other warriors.

That is to say, you have to be a little more polite when doing things and speaking.

Zong Shen did not grant them any privileges.

Of course, one thing I have to say is those mages who have mastered the third-level group attack magic.

His role in the team is unquestionable.

This has been verified in previous battles and crypt challenges.

Whether it's Favid's Rain of Fire magic, Parks' Firestorm or Doris's Fire Tornado.

Any one picked out to deal with monsters with low blood defense can be regarded as a big killer.

In the crypt challenge, Doris's fire tornado once killed seven to eight hundred crypt monsters at once.

This also makes those fire mages generally have a higher level than other warriors who joined at the same time.

As for what Baron Bezos said about joining the Mage Tower.

Zong Shen never thought about it. He didn't have this ambition and he wasn't very interested in magic.

Magic is just a auxiliary means to him.

Just to increase the diversity of attacks.

In this way, you will not lack the means to deal with various enemies.

For Zong, there is nothing that cannot be solved with one sword strike. If there is, then two sword strikes can solve it.

What's more, the mage towers in every giant city are supported by the forces of the kingdom.

Entering the mage tower is almost like boarding a pirate ship.

Everyone’s salary in Jucheng is not free.

Joining the Mage Tower is equivalent to joining the giant city army.

If you really want to choose a magic force to study.

The major elemental temples such as the Temple of Holy Light are a good choice.

Thinking of this, Zong Shen shook his head firmly.

"I don't want to be tied down."

"I am a freedom-seeking person."

"Besides, I'm not very interested in magic."

After hearing what Zong Shen said, Baron Bezos probably understood what he meant.

"Hahaha, you're right."

"Joining Mage Taco isn't as freeing."

"I have an old friend in Giant City."

"He is now the captain of the Fire Mage Squadron in the giant city of Lentax."

"The level score has reached the level of an intermediate mage of the fourth level."

"I'll write a letter in a minute and take it with you. You can visit him when you get to the giant city."

"He is younger than me. He is also a Baron of the Kingdom. He is a very knowledgeable guy."

Baron Bezos said with a smile.

Zong Shen naturally would not refuse this.

He now urgently needs to expand his contacts among the Aboriginal people.

The more contacts you accumulate, the greater your advantage will be in the future.

Many aborigines are talents to Zong Shen.

Including Baron Bezos, he is also a heroic talent.

Establishing connections among the indigenous people is not only beneficial to the development of the territory.

Even if the situation changes in the future, Zong Shen will be able to take the lead.

The aboriginal power is a big mountain pressing on the heads of the lords.

It is also a catalyst for the great development of the territory in the future.

Zong Shen nodded respectfully.

Now the truth is out.

All the victimized women in the folding space were moved out.

They will be properly accommodated.

Waiting for the family members of the victims to confirm their identities.

Basically, Evans can be convicted.

These women are living proof, the most important proof.

The busiest person right now is Sheriff Zachary Osborne.

He can also gain some merit if he successfully captures the "Night Stalker".

Especially if Zong Shen voluntarily chooses to give up the announcement, then both he and Baron Bezos will stand in front of the stage.

Although it may offend the Heywood family, it will be of great benefit to his future career.

After all, Heywood's dirty hands have not yet touched the powerful people in the giant city of Lentax.

Therefore, his attitude towards Zong Shen also began to become friendly.

When Baron Bezos first introduced Zong Shen to him.

Zachary actually wasn't too interested in Zong Shen.

To him, Zong Shen is a mud-legged person.

And he himself is a leader among his peers.

They were selected through military camp selection.

Has outstanding combat ability and command talent.

He is from a commoner background and his family conditions are average.

With your own efforts.

In the future, he may also become an officer in the giant city.

There is even a chance to get a knighthood.

But now, the "Night Demon" was subdued by Zong Shen.

The secret of folding space has also been cracked.

This achievement can be said to be given to him by Zong Shenbai.

He walked back and forth in a hurry.

When he entered the house again, Zong Shen called him.

"Lord Zachary."

"I have something else for you."

Zong Shen shouted very politely.

When Zachary heard this, he stopped what he was doing to save face.

"What do you want to show me?"

He was a little curious about this.

Zong Shen put his wrist behind his back and feinted, then took out Bosbon's bounty mark.

This is the mark he got from killing the gangster Carlisle when he saved Mariel.

There is no pattern on this seal, only the characters representing Bosbon.

There is also a string of unknown numbers on the back.

Zong Shen didn't know how the Sheriff should use this mark to judge.

This is not something he should worry about. He only needs to follow the prompts and give the mark to the Sheriff.

The Sheriff took the bounty stamp and looked at the numbers on the back.

"This is the first bounty mark representing the gangster Carlisle."

"That guy is a wandering gangster."

"The most recent reward is 3,000 dinars."

Zachary said truthfully that these bounty first marks were transformed by special magic beacons.

At this time, Baron Bezos, who was standing aside eating melon and watching a show, also came over.

"I really didn't see the wrong person."

"Now, together with the "Night Stalker" bounty, you have received a total of 13,000 dinars."

"I will cash this bounty directly to you in a moment."

"In addition, I have also helped you prepare the supplies you need in the morning."

"This batch of supplies will be replenished to the state treasury from my own pocket."

"Now let's go to the central area."

"Zachley is here, he will handle it well."

Baron Bezos patted Zong Shen on the shoulder affectionately.

It happened that Zong Shen also wanted to leave, and Bosi Bang's affairs were almost settled.

They came to the banquet a little after eleven o'clock.

Now after a set of operations, it is almost twelve o'clock.

In order to save time, Zong Shen didn't even have time to check the treasures he obtained.

Take advantage of the time now to collect the supplies collected by Bezos.

Then you can prepare to return to the territory. If you move quickly, you can arrive in the early hours of tonight.

So the two of them walked out of the manor mansion directly.

The Bangcheng army that was waiting in the yard outside has now withdrawn half.

All the state and city armies were dispatched.

Evans, who was seriously injured, was also missing.

There must be other arrangements.

Zong Shen has stabilized his injury.

Suspending one's life is not a problem, but such a serious injury requires powerful healing medicine.

Or other advanced treatment methods, otherwise it will be difficult to return to normal.

Luna and Vereesa were waiting in the yard.

Baron Bezos mounted his brown prairie horse.

Zong Shen also rode on Bajie.

Led by Bezos, they left the manor and walked towards the central area.

The movement in the manor also attracted the attention of many passers-by.

Among them were many lords operating in the city.

They were all secretly checking Zong Shen's number information.

"Huh?"

"Ma Huateng 19888?"

"Since when does this lord exist in our nearby area?"

A white lord wondered.

At the same time, some Chinese lords saw Zong Shen's information nearby.

"What the hell?"

"Ma Huateng is here too?"

"But it doesn't seem right for my age."

Zong Shen was too lazy to care what those lords thought.

This was originally a confusing data number, and Zong Shen didn't think too much about it.

As for the appearance, he wasn't worried. From the territory to the capital, he crossed three or four territories and came to the area.

Some of the lords in the area where the territory is located have met him in person.

Judging from the current situation, other lords want to cross such a long distance to Bosibon.

And the probability of meeting Zong Shen is almost slim.

A new round of challenges will officially begin at noon tomorrow.

Most of the lords are now actively responding to new challenges.

Because of the weather changes in the past few days, many lords have already guessed the content of the new challenge.

Including now, these lords who come to the city are basically lords whose territories are nearby.

The purpose of coming to Bangcheng is to purchase some supplies.

In addition, you can earn dinars through work in aboriginal cities.

Including jobs such as escort, escort, and bodyguard.

These jobs carry some risk, but the pay is relatively high.

Many lords would bring their soldiers to the city to work and make money.

Wages are calculated on a per-capita basis, and you can earn one or two hundred dinars a day.

Every lord is working hard.

I want to build a good territory and gain a firm foothold in this world.
