Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing From a Rundown Yard

Chapter 357 Departing From the Mine, the Aftermath Is Still Unsettled 【Subscription】

The strengthening of the demon state has been completed, except for the changes in skills, it has not caused any impact on Zong Shen's own attributes.

The movement of devouring the demon's soul just now also alarmed everyone in the territory.

Especially those newly joined farmers and warriors, looking at the lord's small building not far away in amazement.

However, those senior citizens in the territory are not surprised by this.

It is not a secret that Zong Shen holds the power of demons in the territory.

In fact, most forces in this world are more afraid of demon power.

There is no right or wrong in power itself, it just depends on how the person who masters it uses it.

Those demon hunters degenerate half of their souls into demons and hunt demons with demonic power.

However, there are also many forces in this world who regard anyone who holds the power of demons as evil and terrifying beings.

Such as the Temple of the Holy Light, the Church of Light, the Knights of the Cross, the Demon Slayer Association...

Waiting for such forces, Holy Light Priests and Holy Light Deacons actually belong to the Holy Light Temple.

Therefore, in the territory, if we really want to talk about conflict, that is, only Aishia will have some disgust for the power of demons.

However, this disgust only comes from a concept she has been educated and instilled since she was a child, and cannot transcend loyalty and the status of Zong Shen in her heart.

It's like someone who doesn't like eating durian finds a partner who likes eating durian. It's uncomfortable, but it's still acceptable.

After Zong Shen devoured the devil's soul, he could be considered to have completed a small goal that he had been thinking about before.

Because of the previous fight, his room was already a mess at this time.

Especially his big bed, which almost collapsed.

This kind of furniture is all attached to the upgrade of the lord's palace, without any attributes and bonuses.

When the time comes, let the dwarf uncle repair it.

Apart from that, there was nothing in the room, Zong Shen glanced back and left the room.

After walking out of the lord's small building, I came to the storage box of the territory and started to prepare what I might need.

This trip to Bangcheng was the first time that Zong Shen was going to contact the aboriginal cities above the village level.

A state city with a population of hundreds of thousands or even millions is almost comparable to a county-level city.

From the perspective of population, the wealth and opportunities in the city are definitely far greater than that in the village.

This time he directly withdrew 50,000 dinars and prepared to carry it with him.

If you want to deal with the aboriginal forces, you can't do it without money, you can't just rob it like you are in the wilderness.

There is nothing else to prepare for, and there are no special products in Zong Shen's territory, and a [Moon God Spring] is considered a rare commodity, and he has already collected it all.

After getting ready, he went to the self-made ice cellar to get some dry food with him, and then walked out of the lord's courtyard.

All the people he pointed to are gathered outside the lord's courtyard at this moment.

Including the heroic talents of Vereesa, Howie, and Luna.

There are also Dutra with more than 200 kobolds, as well as the immortal lancer squad and the three-headed crypt demon.

Zong Shen looked at the number of kobolds and took out four weight-bearer mechas.

Let Howie, Vereesa, and Dutra drive one of them, and pick out a kobold prophet who looks smarter, and after a little bit of tuning, let him be responsible for driving the remaining one.

The weight-bearer mech is very simple to drive, and the kobold itself is a little shorter than the goblin, and the size of the cab is more friendly to them than humans.

Four load bearers loaded with 285 kobolds, three crypt demons, and those unhatched large eggs and some messy luggage seemed a bit crowded.

But there is no way, let’s make do with it first, there are a total of six load-bearing mechas, Zong Shen has left two in the territory, and Mariel and the others can call them at any time.

He carried the remaining four in the storage compartment, and had to keep one in the mine for a while.

In this way, the mine can form a one-stop service of collection, refining and transportation.

Dutra has a communication crystal on his body, and the kobold itself has a certain combat power. Combined with the terrain in the mine cave that the three crypt demons rely on, it is enough to withstand the attacks of several or even a dozen lords.

At that time, as long as you use the communication crystal to ask for help from the territory, the reinforcements will arrive in more than an hour.

But even so, Zong Shen wanted to make some defensive arrangements in the mine.

Especially doing some articles on the inside of the mine, after all, this is an illegal occupation, and the mine is still an unowned land after all.

Before the official start of the next round of challenges, the lords must resume their external exploration. Maybe there are lords who can find the entrance to the mine when the blind cat meets the dead mouse.

The group of lords is a restless third-party force. Zong Shen himself is also a member of the lords, and he has no doubts about the lords' ability to scrape the ground.

It is thirty or forty kilometers away from the mine. If you want to expand the territory there, I am afraid that it is already the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.

It seems that some permanent illusion magic circles have to be collected recently to artificially cover the entrance of the mine, so as to maintain peace for at least a period of time.

While the kobolds were chattering towards the cargo hold of the load bearer mecha, Zong Shen was thinking about how to protect the mine.

After more than ten minutes, the kobolds finally all sat on the weight-bearer mecha.

Zong Shen raised his head and glanced at it, and behind every load-bearer mecha were all kobolds.

One of the weight-bearer mechas also sat three crypt demons. Their huge size took up a lot of space. In order to save space, five or six kobolds were sitting on the abdominal pouches and shoulders behind them.

It's funny and awkward, knowing that these cave kobolds are in the Crypt Demon's recipe.

Now because of Zong Shen's reasons, they are together and coexisting peacefully in an extremely abnormal way.

Looking at Zong Shen, he couldn't help laughing. He saw the expressions of disgust on the faces of those crypt demons.

And those kobolds are naturally talkative, sitting on their backs "jijiji" and barking non-stop, looking very excited.

After everything was ready, Zong Shen called Mariel and told her to start planning and relocating the territory today.

Move the defensive buildings first to ensure that there are no defensive gaps in several directions, and then move those functional buildings such as [Blacksmith's Shop], [Tailor's Shop], [Magic Hall], [Folk House].

Most of the fighters will be left in the territory, and they will patrol the perimeter in small groups to ensure that the migration and construction can proceed safely.

Finally, after explaining, Zong Shen brought Bajie, and when his mind moved, a golden navigation arrow appeared in front of him, guiding him on the path to the mine.

Zong Shen rode Bajie at the forefront, while Luna rode the sentinel black panther next to him.

Behind them are four loaders full of kobolds.

At the end is a squad of Tier 4 Immortal Lancers.

The momentum of the entire team was not small, so they started to move towards the mine.

...

Meanwhile, in the Burial Grounds, north of Odo Village.

Outside the excavation site of the Church of Calamity Ravens, the remaining crusade and Bangcheng's support army have surrounded the place.

The caved-in well had not been dug completely, which meant that the three saint elders and the remaining eight jackdaws were still under the ground.

On the ground, there was only a group of heretic giant knights, a group of Calamity mages, and six half-dead raven puppets.

Among them was that Wang Xuan. These raven puppets were extremely inactive. Half of their bodies were buried in the ground, and they seemed to have lost their power.

After a night of aftercare and rest, there were less than 400 troops left in the crusade.

However, the reinforcements from Bosbon had arrived, and the surviving Blue Owl cavalry had a scale of six or seven hundred.

"Surrender, this is the kingdom's territory."

"Don't make senseless resistance."

Quinnir rode forward and said loudly.

After rest and cleaning, the blood stains on his armor were gone.

It's just that the traces of damage are still obvious, and there is a split left by the halberd, which almost tears his armor.

The two groups of church soldiers looked at each other in dismay. Now the three saint elders are buried in the ruins.

The front line in Odo Village was completely destroyed, and the Saintess disappeared.

Having lost their commander, they naturally lost their faith and fighting spirit to resist.

In this case, they can only choose to surrender, put down their weapons, and raise their hands in a gesture of surrender.

The heretic giant knight dismounted and gently touched the horse's head before raising his hand.

No one said a word, just silently made an action of surrender.

Quinnir had no objection to this, he knew that this was the last decency of these heretical fighters.

With a wave of his hand, the Bangcheng reinforcements behind him took out hemp ropes and tied up all the prisoners.

At the same time, the six raven puppets that had lost their power like dead sculptures were all tied up.

Those guys from the Rentax Mage Association should be very interested in these human-made puppets.

Beside Quinnir was a young man who also rode a warhorse.

With brown curly hair and a fair face, he was not very handsome, but he seemed to have some refined temperament.

The warhorse under his crotch is shorter than the dragon-scale warhorse, because his warhorse is just a slightly stronger steppe horse with light armor, including his own equipment.

At least compared with the Dragonborn Knights, it looks a lot simpler.

The young man, Harold Chebman, was Bosbon's reinforcement commander.

Also the son of Baron Bezos Chebman.

After all these church warriors were captured, Quinnir turned to look at Harold.

"Harold, are you sure that Bosbon's reinforcements really don't have a little fat man who leads the Immortal Lancers?"

"His name is Quat, he is about 1.73 meters tall, and he is about 30 years old."

"Yesterday, that little fat man brought your father's title card."

"I have verified the title card, and it is indeed true."

Quinnir said slowly, with deep doubts in his tone.

The young man named Harold shook his head solemnly.

"Uncle Quinnir, I have confirmed with my adjutant."

"There are no Immortal Lancers in action in the whole of Bosbon."

"There is no officer named Quat in Bosbon either."

"And my father's title card was on him until I set off."

Harold truthfully told Quinnir what he had found.

Hearing his words, Quinnir just nodded slightly and turned his head back.

More and more doubts in his heart, although that Quait did not do anything out of the ordinary.

But on closer inspection, he seemed to be encouraging himself to launch an all-out attack.

So after the war started, he disappeared.

But what about motivation?

Everything should have a motive, right?

Leading the crusade and the Church of Calamity Raven is bound to have a battle.

What benefits can the other party gain from it?

Quinnil was puzzled by this.

However, after Odo Village was breached, a mysterious force did appear, frantically looting the villagers and the remaining materials in the village.

There are a lot of mysterious forces, and the lineup is also very messy. It seems to be an illegal armed force from somewhere.

At that time, Quinnir went in pursuit with the surviving dragonborn cavalry, and the remaining crusade and Bangcheng reinforcements in Odo Village also had friction with the mysterious forces.

Hundreds of soldiers from this mysterious force were killed, and when they cleaned the battlefield afterwards, it was discovered that they were indeed all shoddy troops. Among them, there were troops of the first to third tiers, and there were many armed farmers who had undergone simple training.

Soldiers of this level are often classified as the first-order level.

The most suspicious thing is that this mysterious force has a large number of wolf cavalry.

These are the characteristic arms of the ancient tribe, the Wild Wolf Tribe, which has disappeared for seven or eight thousand years.

Before the founding of Avalon, the Wild Wolf tribe lived in a nearby area.

Their tribe has a wolf totem and is able to domesticate coyotes.

The wolf cavalry and giant wolf knight under his command are very powerful, and they are active in the grasslands as rangers.

Quinnir also wasn't sure if that Quat was related to the mysterious forces last night.

He suddenly remembered something, turned his head again and said to Hadrow.

"Hadro, I came along the way and found a strange phenomenon."

Hearing Quinnir's words, Hadrow made a gesture of listening intently.

"I found a lot of small settlements along the way."

"The number of these settlements is a little unusual."

"Along the way, I didn't specifically look for it, but hundreds of them have been found."

"Because of the military emergency, we did not check whether these settlements have state permits."

"But this phenomenon is definitely not normal."

"There must be no place for so many unauthorized settlements in the kingdom."

"When I go back this time, I will inform the Marquis of the situation."

"You also go back and notify your father to prepare for a screening of the jurisdiction!"

I have seen everyone's recommendations.

The bookshelf selection will be added later.

Reading and charging, absorbing essence.
