Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

This wave of acceleration made Mariel a little nervous.

She leaned her body against Ying Jiang's neck to block the random airflow.

His hands were wrapped around both sides of its neck, each grabbing a feather.

There was not a single scream during the entire flight.

But the ever-changing look in her eyes proved that her heart was not without turmoil.

The back of Yingjiang's neck is the most comfortable riding position and also the position with the best view.

Coupled with the acceleration of the jet suit, Mariel sitting here experienced the excitement of flying.

After the eagle sauce landed smoothly.

Zong Shen jumped to the ground immediately.

Mariel's legs were slightly weak, and she carefully went down from the side.

Eagle Sauce also humanely bent its limbs and made a prone posture.

Reduces the difficulty of Mariel's climb.

Zong Shen also took the initiative to extend his hand.

After a few final words of caution, he waved Mariel to contact Colby.

He himself walked towards the lord's courtyard, which is now the lord's fortress.

It can be said that there is a sense of security there.

Pass through the iron gate, quickly walk up the steps, and open the heavy fortress steel gate.

Zong Shen walked in without closing the door.

The layout of the first floor is actually similar to the original lord's building in terms of function, but the area is much larger.

After entering the door, there is the living room, where there are sixteen wooden chairs with soft fur-backed chairs.

There are also four small round tables.

There is a one meter square top-hung window on the wall side.

When necessary, the window can be pushed up and propped up with side supports.

But a fortress is a fortress after all, and even the windows have their place.

There is also a thick steel plate on the outside of the window with a composite floor embedded in it.

Can be pulled out from the wall.

Seal the windows completely.

Each steel plate is two fingers thick, highlighting the defensive nature of the fort.

In addition, the foundation of the Lord's Fortress is two meters high.

This safety factor is simply ridiculously high.

There are windows hanging on two sides in the living room, and there are more than eight windows on the entire first floor.

The windows are now open, and the composite sliding steel plates have not been put down.

The lighting in the house is pretty good.

Continuing further inside is the new large fireplace.

There are also chairs on both sides of the fireplace, as well as iron racks and fire tongs for storing firewood.

This type of fireplace comes with a metal crossbar on which a ceiling stove or kettle can be hung.

There was also a circular carpet spread on the floor.

Continuing to walk inside, the whole thing is divided into two parts.

One part is the sand table, dining room, and kitchen.

The other part is divided into six independent rooms.

It can be used as a living room or as a storage room.

As for the upward staircase, it is located between the living room and the fireplace.

The wall is made of bluish-gray rough stone. If you reach out and touch it gently, it will feel slightly cool and a bit scratchy.

There are no more magic crystal chandeliers.

There are only double metal candlesticks scattered on the wall, as well as ring racks for placing torches.

Behind the high defense, comfort and luxury are sacrificed.

Even the steps leading up are made of stones.

Lord's Bastion has taken this earthy minimalism to the end.

Zong Shen did not go upstairs.

There are also some personal items in the room, which will not disappear when the Lord's Fortress is upgraded.

He planned to wait until night, when he wanted to rest, and then judge the respective rooms based on their general orientation and the items inside.

"call!"

After looking at it for a while, Zong Shen sat down on the armchair in the living room.

After the temperature stabilized at 35°C, it became a lot cooler in the fortress.

Those blue-gray stone walls cut off part of the heat from the sun.

At least it's much cooler now than when the challenge first started.

Sitting on the chair, he was ready to check what he had gained from killing the Balrog Boss this time.

Also, the magic storage box previously found in the ruins of the Lion Knights' residence has not yet been opened.

Just take this time to open unified viewing.

Old God Zong Shen was leaning on his chair, and first opened the [Challenge Points] option.

[Current points: 426572]

Zong Shen was stunned by this number as soon as he opened it.

Most of these points come from attacking the Balrog Boss.

In addition, after a successful kill, more than 50,000 points were obtained.

In total, he has more than 400,000 points.

This amount of points is almost equivalent to his monopoly on most of the Balrog Boss.

You must know that the Balrog Boss only has 5 million blood points in total, which is calculated based on the point conversion ratio of 0.1.

A Balrog Boss can provide up to 500,000 challenge points.

Zong Shen alone has almost won more than 300,000 points.

Among the remaining participating lords, each of them only dealt 10,000 to 20,000 points of damage on average.

Most people's peak output period is actually only about ten minutes.

Zong Shen relied on the gem strategy to quickly kill the Fire Demon Boss by consuming frost magic gems.

This kind of play is very targeted and the cost is not small.

The frost magic gems consumed are worth a lot of points if the cost is considered.

Especially the two fifth-level and one sixth-level frost magic gems at the end are extremely valuable.

Fortunately, these gems are readily available.

And he got it from the griffin's nest.

For Zong Shen, there is no cost.

Even judging from the value alone, it is quite a bargain.

He is not worried about anyone replicating this model.

Sixth-level frost magic gems are equivalent to epic-level frost magic materials.

At this stage, you can’t even buy it in the [market].

Even if other lords had similar grade frost magic materials, Zong Shen didn't care.

After all, his family wealth is here. Even if other lords are unlucky, it would be good if they can come up with one or two high-level frost materials.

Not to mention consuming it on the Balrog Boss.

In fact, Zong Shen's rich family background and reserves are his greatest confidence.

In addition, there is another detail.

That's after this golden banner announcement appeared.

The Lord System does not modify the attack rules of the Balrog Boss.

He was not examined carefully.

If the last time Zong Shen used the skill characteristics of [Death Lich] to kill the underworld snake Apophis, it would be regarded as a "bug" behavior.

So this time, Zong Shen's gem strategy was an upright and legitimate method that complied with the underlying rules.

This batch of gems comes from the gryphon's nest.

And the reason why he was able to conquer the Griffin Nest was essentially because he was strong enough.

Therefore, even the source of the gems is legitimate.

As long as Zong Shen is willing to bear the consumption of frost gems, the lord system will naturally not mind.

There are no hidden dangers in earning points based on your ability.

After such an analysis, Zong Shen was completely relieved, and he began to hum a tune in a comfortable mood.

At least two Balrogs will appear in the next two days.

Zong Shen is now confident of getting one million points.

This heat wave challenge will definitely make his mouth water.

After turning off [Challenge Points], Zong Shen opened the [Personal] option.

In the [Title] sub-option, in addition to the [Extraordinary Miracle] obtained previously.

There is another title of [Fire Domain Nemesis].

The fonts of both titles are gold, but the latter is lighter.

They are all unique titles, and their levels should be similar.

[Unique title: Flame Domain Nemesis]

[Passive skill: Fire resistance (fire element resistance increased by 65%, burning damage caused by fire reduced by 60%)]

[After the lord level reaches lv55, you can use this title to get a chance to enter the scorching flames]

This title is quite good, as it increases fire element resistance by 65% ​​and fire damage reduction by 60%.

Such a high resistance can already make the fire magician kneel down and sing "Conquer".

Even the resistance of the flame elemental body is nothing more than this.

As for the 100% fire element resistance, don't worry about it for the time being. The strength of the element determines the damage.

As long as the intensity is sufficient, the flame can still defeat the flame.

Only special creations under the rules of the underlying elements of the world can achieve complete immunity.

Compared with [Extraordinary Miracle], this title is still inferior.

After all, the one-time skill attached to [Extraordinary Miracle] can reverse the entire 24-hour timeline.

Let everything go back to the way it was 24 hours ago.

This skill can truly be called "changing one's fate against the will of heaven".

Sure enough, there was a clear gap between this time and the time when he defeated the underworld snake Apophis.

Zong Shen knew this very well.

But this title is not bad, at least in the future I can be more unscrupulous when facing fire attacks.

It is worth mentioning that both unique titles have one thing in common.

That is, after reaching a specified level, you can get a chance to enter a special area.

[Extraordinary Miracle] When you reach level 60, you can choose to enter a place called the Hall of Miracles.

As for [Fire Domain Nemesis], reaching level 55 will give you the opportunity to enter the scorching flame domain.

The opportunities to enter special areas that come with these two titles are a bit like dungeons.

We have to wait until the level is high enough to know exactly what happened.

He had asked about the strategy before and learned that the Miracle Palace belonged to a mysterious force.

Then the same should be true for the scorching hot area, maybe it is a special unknown area.

His level is only lv30 now. It will take some time before he reaches lv55 and lv60.

With [Fire Resistance] at his side, Zong Shen thought about finding more fire monsters to fight in the future.

In addition to the title, his reputation value became 21,400 points.

Zong Shen didn't know what the reputation value was for.

Originally, he thought it could enhance his prestige among the aborigines.

However, after observation, this possibility was rejected again.

Currently, we can see the need for reputation points in legion upgrades.

He curled his lips and dismissed these options with a thought.

He turned his hand and took out a pale golden metal rectangular object with a length of twenty centimeters and a width of four centimeters.

[Key of Destiny (Unknown)]

[Quality: unknown]

[The tooth key that controls destiny can restore the operation of something]

[Effect: unknown]

【Destiny Parts: 212】

(One of the twelve destiny components, which can repair certain abnormal situations in the world and may come in handy in the future)

Zong Shen grabbed the tooth key with his right hand and read the attributes and notes.

He immediately remembered something and quickly walked out of the Lord's Fortress.

I came to the territory storage box outside and searched patiently for a while.

Not long after, he took out a golden gear the size of his head with his left hand.

This gear is the [Gear of Destiny (Unknown)] that was obtained last time.

There is a key in the inner ring of the gear.

Zong Shen gently inserted the tooth key, and it was just right.

This proves that they are all unknown items in the "Destiny Series".

"Gears, tooth keys..."

"Then there are also connecting rods, crankshafts, disc teeth, and boxes..."

he muttered.

"Both Golden Banner announcements gave unknown items from the Destiny series."

"Then, there should be one puppet lord supported by the aborigines who dispersed the dark clouds in the sky, Jane Hessitz."

Zong Shen thought of Jane Haishiz during the winter challenge.

Chen Rui once told him that that guy was supported by the indigenous people.

Two golden banners also appeared at the time.

Zong Shen thought for a while, and his intuition told him that these Destiny series items in his hands were definitely not simple.

If we could gather twelve pieces together, it might have incredible effects.

After all, in the notes of the guide, these things are all things that can repair abnormalities in the world.

Although he still doesn't know what "world anomaly" refers to.

But no matter how he interpreted it, he was confused by it.

Put the key and gear back into the storage box.

placed next to each other in the same slot.

He returned to the fortress hall with steady steps.

Sit in your original position and continue to check out other harvests.

This time he took out a golden badge imprint.

Only as big as a bottle cap.

The pattern of the emblem is very interesting, with a battle ax and sword in the center.

They intersect, creating a sense of confrontation as well as friction.

Below are the fisted arms folded together.

There are also flame patterns on the side.

The ax, sword, and fists are arranged above and below the emblem.

The overall look has obvious hints of war.

Other than these, there are no too fancy textures.

This emblem is the golden epic-level jewelry and equipment rewarded this time.

[Overlord Emblem (Gold)]

[Quality: Epic]

[Effects: Charm +20, Strength +10, Power +4, Control +5]

[When using axes and swords, you will get an additional 10% slashing damage bonus]

[Skill: Gilded Fist lv35 (This skill can be activated in the unarmed state, making the fists hard, with epic material armor and resistance. When attacking, the power is converted into basic bludgeoning damage, and a 1.5 multiplier is obtained. bludgeoning damage buff, lasts 10 minutes, cooldown 2 hours)

Summon Overlord Halberd Armor lv40 (Summons four level lv40, fifth-level warriors Overlord Halberd Armor holding heavy halberds. They are brave and resolute warriors, lasts 15 minutes, and has a cooling time of 1 hour)

Passive skill: Overlord’s Ambition (for every time the total number of subjects reaches 1,000, control +3.

Current control gain: 3)】

(This is the emblem left by a certain overlord during the human race’s struggle for hegemony. Unfortunately, that overlord failed to establish his own kingdom in the end, but in those limited years, he still wrote his own legend)

What do you say about this emblem?

In fact, it is similar to [King Arthur’s Ring of Dominance (gold)].

It’s just that the skills are not that rich.

But that passive skill [Overlord’s Ambition] has growth potential.

It will provide additional [Domination] bonus based on the number of territorial citizens.

For every 1,000 subjects, [Domination] can be increased by 3 points.

If the territory has 10,000 citizens, it will increase [Domination] by 30 points.

It can increase Zong Shen's command value by 300 points.

There are also decent attribute improvements.

However, the jewelry slots on Zong Shen's chest were already full.

After thinking for a moment, he took off the [Shadow Amulet (Blue)].

Replaced the newly obtained [Overlord's Emblem (Gold)].

That [Shadow Amulet] was originally found from Gu Shuying's relics.

It is one of his personal accessories.

It comes with a [Shadow Clone lv10] skill.

There are also bonuses to the agility and charisma attributes.

After the accessories were changed, Zong Shen's attributes also changed.

His agility is reduced by 6 points and his charisma is reduced by 2 points.

They became 45 points and 76 points respectively.

Next is the attribute bonus of [Overlord Emblem].

Strength increased by 10 points to 177 points.

The health value has also been increased by 50 points accordingly, becoming 1492 points.

Charm increased by 20 points in one breath, plus 8 points of [Domination].

Among them, 3 points of [Domination] are contributed by [Overlord’s Ambition].

Therefore, in the end, Zong's charm became 96 points.

The command value has also increased a lot, becoming [153388]

[Control] skill 28 points.

Every time jewelry equipment is replaced, it can cause changes and changes in attributes.

Now Zong Shen has gone down the path of power flow and will never return.

In addition, his charm and intelligence attributes are not low either.

Compared with these three attributes, his agility is only 45 points, which seems a bit inferior.

But it doesn't matter. Anyway, there is a long way to go, and we can gradually strengthen it.

After putting on the [Overlord Emblem (Gold)], Zong Shen continued to immerse himself in the portable storage compartment.

Needless to say, those advanced resource treasure chests and advanced material treasure chests.

Zong Shen had already opened it last time and knew the value of it.

In addition to these treasure chests, there are also two [Hero Crests].

Including the one he reserved last time, he now has three more on hand.

He already had a candidate to be promoted to hero in his mind.

These [Heroic Crests] came at the right time.

Finally, there are only three rewards left.

Includes an upgrade certificate.

[Level 6 City Lord’s Mansion Upgrade Voucher]

[After completing the territory expansion mission and upgrading the territory to level six, you can use this voucher to upgrade the city lord's mansion to level 6 (it must be ensured that the city lord's mansion is in an undamaged state)]

(You are getting closer to your castle dream, upgrade as soon as possible, it will make you have a stronger home)

This upgrade certificate comes at just the right time.

He had just upgraded the City Lord's Mansion to level five in the morning.

And now his city lord's mansion will be in the form of a solid fortress.

After reaching level six, the area of ​​the city lord's mansion will expand.

The defense capabilities of the Lord's Fortress will also be improved again.

The appearance of this upgrade certificate also gave Zong Shen new conjectures.

For special rewards like this, the items that appear actually have preferences.
