Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

The black mist outside Feihu's body became thicker and thicker.

A small dragon vein fruit contains extremely abundant energy.

This black mist is the embodiment of the bloodline power of the black dragon's essence and blood.

In almost a few breaths, Feihu was completely enveloped in black mist.

It's like a big black egg lying on the ground.

Zong Shen stood aside and observed with interest.

For him, being able to see with his own eyes the changes in the awakening of dragon veins was also a novel experience.

…

At the same time, Xiao Heizi returned to the fortress yard bored.

Zong Shen's absence made it a lot easier.

He even became more courageous and started looking around in the yard.

The powerful perception and mental power turned into a big net to sense the surroundings.

Soon it discovered something and turned to look at a cellar entrance against the wall.

"That's the smell of gems!"

Its vertical pupils suddenly became radiant.

The strong hind limbs jumped up and soon arrived at the entrance of the cellar.

Looking at the small cellar entrance, it subconsciously stretched out its claws, preparing to dig a big hole.

But when the tip of the claw just touched the wooden frame of the entrance, it suddenly stopped.

Because at that moment, it felt a strong sense of crisis.

When it attempts to destroy buildings in the territory, it will reduce its already low loyalty by default and directly become a neutral unit. The high-level defense towers and wonders in the territory are not vegetarian. As lord buildings, they are all Following the underlying rules of the lord system, it was locked the moment the little black dragon tried to take action.

With the crisis intuition of dragons, they can naturally sense changes in their surroundings.

In addition, when he was about to take action, he suddenly thought of Zong Shen.

The human who can turn into a holy warrior and rub it on the ground, and the woman who can turn into a ghost body and hold up a deadly scythe...

As the saying goes, once you are beaten severely, you will be afraid of Zong Shen for ten years.

"snort!"

Xiao Heizi snorted angrily and put away the sharp claws of his forelimbs indifferently.

He turned back to the open space where he had rested before and lay down in a somewhat dejected manner.

For it, this is undoubtedly a very frustrating life.

It's not that it doesn't want to resist, but it's all in vain if it can't defeat Zong Shen.

And now in his territory, it can be said that it is heavily guarded, and even a temporary betrayal cannot be achieved.

"Hmph, wait until I get Mother Dragon's five-color flower and then find an opportunity to escape!"

"That damn human isn't very good at flying!"

"As for the black kitten and the dragon-veined gryphon, they are not worth mentioning either. I only need to roar to make them give up the pursuit!"

Xiao Heizi leaned his head inside his body, thinking about how to regain his freedom.

Whether it is gems or those dinars, they are far less attractive than the [Flower of Tiamat (orange)]. It has already begun to plan to endure the humiliation and wait for an opportunity to get the five-color flower, and then run away.

However, even though Xiao Heizi never gave up the idea of ​​running away, his ideas had actually changed subtly, and he was able to endure it and continue to stay here.

This is the idea that loyalty is quietly limiting it.

If there were no loyalty restrictions, I am afraid that Xiao Heizi would have a greater chance of running away when he took over the unclaimed territory last night. According to the vengeful temperament of Black Dragon Yazhu, he would definitely gather a large group of dependents and then come back to seek revenge from Zong Shen. .

However, it did not choose to run away in the end. Instead, it accepted the situation and found a reason for itself to seize the colorful flowers.

Including its loyalty jumping horizontally repeatedly but never falling below the neutral line, it is also because of the overbearing mechanism of loyalty.

This can explain why Hideki Mitani mistreated the soldiers under his command, causing most of the soldiers to have very low loyalty but never rebelled.

Once bound by loyalty, unless the lord takes the initiative to expel the subjects, it is very difficult for the subjects under his command to unilaterally terminate the loyalty relationship.

After the loyalty reaches 100 points, the subjects will become even more willing to risk their lives and never leave.

This is the overbearing power of loyalty.

As a lord's privilege, loyalty is a "golden finger" that maintains the rule of the people and reduces the constraints on development.

Among the lords, Zong Shen is a loser and cannot be judged by common sense.

But to the aborigines, every lord is a gabi, possessing extraordinary privileges.

That's why the saying "The Chosen Son" has been passed down.

Just when Xiao Heizi was in trouble.

In the open space outside the farming and pastoral area, Feihu's dragon vein strengthening is nearing completion.

The black mist began to become thinner.

During this period, Feihu was as unresponsive as a puppet.

It seems to have lost consciousness and exhibits neither pain nor pleasure.

It wasn't until every wisp of black mist was absorbed by its body that it raised its head and let out a powerful roar!

"Roar!"

The roar of the flying tiger is like a tiger roaring in the forest, with a stern and domineering air.

The sound echoed over the farming and pastoral area.

After a few seconds, there was still no reply.

Today's agricultural and pastoral areas are also a busy scene.

Mariel and Howie and the logistics heroes were busy counting and classifying the resources brought back by Zong Shen.

Hundreds of farmers are building hay sheds according to their requirements to temporarily store these resources.

Neither the territory's storage boxes nor warehouse buildings can carry such a huge amount of resources.

We can only build some straw sheds to cope with the situation for a few days while the agricultural and pastoral areas have not yet been fully activated.

In the southwest of the territory, near the central circle of the planned industrial zone, a batch of [second-level general warehouses] are planned to be built. Zong Shen obtained the relevant drawings very early.

But the most embarrassing thing is that the defensive challenge is coming. Zong Shen has already urgently stopped the construction of all non-essential buildings.

I'm afraid this batch of resources will eventually have to be solved by upgrading storage boxes.

In addition, there are a large number of [market] buildings in the territory that can be put up for sale to preserve them for a few extra days when necessary.

The above methods should be enough to solve the problem.

Even if it doesn't work, Zong Shen still has [Pascal Covenant's Big Pocket (gold)] plus Howie's [Hiking Merchant's Emblem], as well as storage compartments for heroic talents, which can store a lot of resources. .

However, the sudden huge resources still left the territory's existing logistics heroes in a hurry.

Feihu's roar after completing the strengthening of his dragon veins naturally attracted their attention.

Fortunately, everyone's psychological quality has long been sharpened into a piece of iron.

Except for the panic among the newly joined logistics heroes, old people like Mariel and Howie didn't panic at all.

They have all seen flying tigers, and even seen the lord riding back a pure-blooded black dragon.

This astonishing tiger roar was not enough to move them.

On the spot, the flying tiger let out a cheerful roar and then flapped its wings and flew up.

It circled several times in the air hundreds of meters above Zong Shen, releasing its pent-up excitement for a while before falling back in front of Zong Shen, rubbing its big head against his body affectionately.

After completing the strengthening of dragon veins, Feihu's appearance has also undergone some changes.

Palm-sized scales appeared on its slightly weaker waist and abdomen.

These are like tightly fitting armor, increasing the defense capabilities of weak points.

As for other parts of the body, there have also been changes. The thick fur has become thicker.

The coat color also becomes darker and shiny.

A horn about one meter long and curved upward emerged from Feihu's forehead.

The sharp teeth on the upper and lower jaws became more elongated and closer together.

Even the scorpion-tailed tiger's most important tail joint-like cavity has turned black.

Bone spines sprouted from the joints one after another, and the bone spur launch port at the end became more slender.

It looks like an enlarged version of a bamboo tube.

It is currently unknown whether the bone spurs it fires are strengthened or affected.

Judging from the changes in appearance alone, Feihu has undoubtedly become more ferocious.

Back then, as the leader of the Manticore Tigers, the reason why even if there were more tigers and more power, it could not defeat Yingjiang, it was precisely because Yingjiang had enhanced dragon veins. In addition, the individual strength of the Griffins was generally higher than that of the Manticore Tigers of the same level. Stronger.

Now that Feihu has completed strengthening his dragon veins, his individual strength is not much different from Yingjiang.

Only the specific attribute growth requires Zong Shen to check Feihu's detailed attributes before he can draw a conclusion.

Feihu's loyalty is further enhanced after taking the Dragon Vein Fruit.

He became more and more docile in front of Zong Shen. To Zong Shen, Feihu was like a big cat.

He reached out and touched Feihu's soft cheek, squinting his eyes slightly to check the changes in its attributes.

[Leader of Dragon Veined Scorpion Tail Tiger: Feihu]

[Orange Overlord Level]

[Race: Beast]

[Bite damage: 172~175]

[Puncture damage: 149~152]

[Health value: 5500]

[Armor value: 80]

[Magic Resistance: 75]

[Skill: Acid-etched Armor Spike Shooting lv30 (incites the tubular cavity at the tail to shoot out acid-etched Armor spikes, with a maximum range of 350 meters, capable of causing 2.5 times the puncture damage and 35 points of corrosion damage to the target, the number of spikes is 35/35)

Dragon tooth culling lv30 (can launch culling against targets within a range of 120 meters, quickly reach the pounce location within 3 seconds, causing a suppressing effect on the target, and at the same time causing 2.2 times the bite damage. Facing targets far away If it is lower than your target, there will be a certain chance of causing limb tearing effect (cooling time is 2 hours)

Wing Feather Dragon Scale Transformation lv25 (Spread your wings, the edges of the feather feathers transform into dragon scales, become as sharp as a knife, the wings come together into a sharp blade, perform a round of high-speed slashing, with a fixed 200 points of slashing damage, lasts for 5 minutes, cooldown Time 1 (laughing to death by coincidence)

Passive skills: sharp teeth and claws (bite and claw attacks will have 25 points of armor penetration effect)

Armor thorn regeneration (an armor thorn can be generated every 3 minutes, and the consumption of hunger and satiety will be accelerated)

Acidic Sting (the sortie has the effects of paralyzing toxins and acidic corrosion, equivalent to the fourth-level toxin)]

(After being strengthened by dragon veins, the scorpion-tailed tiger leader’s attributes and skills have been improved accordingly)

The improvement of Feihu's attributes is obvious.

Even each skill has received many enhancements.

Zong Shen nodded happily. As a raptor in the sky, it is also an aerial rider with high mobility.

Naturally, the stronger Feihu is, the better.

Aerial cavalry is the highest mobility level in the territory currently except for the teleportation array.

Due to the limitations of the teleportation array, in many aspects, aerial riding is even more practical than the teleportation array.

Zong Shen himself can ride Xiao Heizi, while Yingjiang and Feihu can stay in the territory for backup.

Those heroic talents will also need to travel.

Therefore, there is no doubt about the significance of the manticore and griffin to the territory.

The scope of human exploration will gradually expand with changes in travel methods.

From the original old traveling horse, to the prairie horse, to the blood-tusked boar.

Zong Shen's scope of exploration has indeed expanded a lot.

Later, he tamed Yingjiang and Feihu, and it only took him less than two hours to reach a distance of thousands of kilometers.

Even if we set out for the giant city of Lentax, it would only take us half a day, including the rest time on the way.

This kind of mobility is the biggest advantage of air riding.

The increased strength of Feihu and Yingjiang can also indirectly increase the exploration range.

Let them have enough strength to soar further into the sky.

"Good boy, take me back to the central area now."

Now that Feihu has completed strengthening, there is no need for him to stay here any longer.

After receiving the order from Zong Shen, Feihu raised his head, bent his limbs and crawled on the ground, waiting for him to ride on.

Zong Shen didn't hesitate, and quickly climbed up from Feihu's side, sat firmly on its neck, raised his hand and patted the back of its neck.

The flying tiger immediately spread its wings, took off into the air with the flapping of its wings, and flew towards the central area.

Flying at full speed without any scruples, it took only half a minute to reach the sky above the central area, and carefully landed in the open space outside the Lord's Fortress.

With Little Heizi in charge, it still didn't dare to land directly in the yard of the lord's fortress.

Zong Shen didn't care, as long as he could reach his destination smoothly.

He jumped off Feihu's back and patted Feihu again to indicate that it could leave.

The smart Feihu turned his head and glanced at Zong Shen.

The next moment, he ran around on all fours and left the central area.

As it runs, its tubular tail curves in front of it.

Zong Shen didn't expect that this guy could run quite fast, not much slower than those high-level war horses.

As it ran wildly, its thick limbs carried its huge body up and down.

The earth also trembled slightly.

Every step can kick up dust all over the sky.

"It seems that after Feihu gets tired of flying, he occasionally needs to run for a change."

After Zong Shen concluded in his mind, he walked towards the lord's fortress.

Today went by very fast, and it would be dark in about two hours.

He was going to ride Xiao Heizi to Jiang Yi's territory and hand over the allocated treasure box to her.

Then go to the living area to check the situation. It's almost time to rest.

I guess by evening, the relevant situation should be sorted out.

As for tomorrow, he has other important arrangements.

For example, before the defensive challenge begins, completely eradicate the Goblin tribe!

Because yesterday when he was killing the little Balrog, he stopped by the Goblin tribe to send a wave of warmth.

Therefore, the investigation plan originally scheduled for last night was cancelled.

From last night to now, all the heroic talents in the territory have been busy processing the harvest he brought back from the unclaimed territory.

Zong Shen himself is equivalent to the front end, just moving the resources, buildings, and population of the unclaimed territory into the territory.

Those heroic talents are the backend responsible for sorting, classifying, and statistics.

A set of processing procedures for handling huge quantities of materials has been formed.

Only after all harvests from unclaimed territories have been classified and counted.

The previous stage has finally come to a successful end.

It can be said that everything is ready now, except that the harvest from the unclaimed territory has not yet been completely processed.

Zong Shen couldn't help it even if he was anxious.

The meal must be eaten one bite at a time and the things must be done one by one.

He walked in a hurry and quickly returned to the courtyard of the Lord's Fortress. He first walked to the [Energy Spring Water], [Power Spring Water] and [Swift Spring Water], and filled some of them in clean containers.

These spring waters are all limited edition items exchanged from the [Architectural Drawings] category in the previous round of [Points Exchange] of the Heat Wave Challenge.

Needless to say, the function of [Energy Fountain], Zong Shen is also planning to use it to make otherworldly cola.

[Fountain of Power] and [Fountain of Swiftness] are equivalent to short-acting attribute-boosting potions.

After drinking it, you can gain some strength and agility gains.

After collecting some spring water for later use, Zong Shen didn't even say hello to Little Heizi, and just climbed onto the saddle by clinging to the dragon scales on its body.

"snort!"

"Disrespectful human!"

Xiao Heizi could only mutter a few words to express his protest.

"Shut up."

"fly."

"Seven or eight kilometers south, change to the west. I'll call you when you get there."

Zong Shen didn't bother to argue with it and spoke very fast.

"snort…"

Xiao Heizi hummed proudly but did not act immediately.

The next second, Zong Shen took out the explosive war hammer from his hand.

He is using practical evidence to let Xiao Heizi know the price of not cooperating.

This move worked really well, and Xiao Heizi spread out his ferocious black wings smoothly.

The strong root bones and back muscles are mobilized immediately.

Giving the black wings the power to flap.

Xiao Heizi, who was once the little bully of Poison Swamp, had never done such a job.

It has almost become Zong Shen's short-distance transportation mount.

This makes it feel that its self-esteem has been trampled on.

But the situation is stronger than the person, and loyalty has the hidden influence.

It doesn't offer much choice other than a humiliating fit.

Just like that, Xiao Heizi carried Zong Shen and flew to the south of the territory in the direction he indicated.

The distance of eight or nine kilometers can be reached in less than two minutes.

Including takeoff and landing, it won't take more than three minutes.

When Xiao Heizi and Zong Shen arrived outside Jiang Yi's territory, a prompt popped up.

[Enter the territory under the jurisdiction of legion member Jiang Yi 19961015]

As the deputy commander, Jiang Yi is naturally a member of the [Guide Corps].

As the legion commander, Zong Shen is able to move unhindered in the territory of legion members.

No automatic attacks from warning and defense buildings.

There is no need to specifically apply for access!
