Chapter 525 Mariel, Whose Aptitude Has Improved, Someone Zong Has Read! 【Subscription】【5K】

as predicted.

As soon as his voice fell, Mariel had an answer.

"Sir, there are 378 new refugees in total."

"Among them, 79 are stupid, 229 are ordinary, 42 are excellent, 17 are excellent, 4 are rare, 5 are magic, and 2 are heroic, respectively. and excellent qualifications.”

"The related talents and skills mastered by those two heroic talents are all related to internal affairs."

"One has a 15% bonus to construction speed and a 10% material reduction, but only for his own construction."

"The other has a special bonus for farming and animal husbandry."

"Fit for the development of responsible agriculture."

Mariel reported very fluently and did her homework well.

Zong Shen nodded while thinking.

"I understand."

"You and Howie are responsible for these two heroes."

"Let them do it for you."

"There will be more and more chores in the future of the territory."

"The associated domestic tasks will also become more difficult."

"I will let Howie take the two newcomers to the warehouse to get a set of excellent equipment."

Among the more than 300 refugees, there are only two heroic talents.

However, the qualifications are still in the past.

It is worth cultivating and becoming the future ruling node of the territory.

By the way, share the domestic affairs of Mariel and Howie.

Before the formation of the caravan, Howie was still mainly responsible for the internal affairs of the territory.

As Mariel's deputy, he is highly involved in the development of the territory.

Counting these two refugee heroes, the territory currently includes the kobold chief Dutra, there are a total of 8 heroes, of which the main direction is fighting.

Dutra, Vereesa, Doris, Luna.

After adding the newcomers, there are also four heroes in charge of internal affairs.

Generally balanced.

Zong Shen didn't care about the name of the new hero.

He directly belongs to Mariel and Howie's subordinates, and it is enough to implement indirect rule.

When they are free, let them go to the training ground to exercise well, or take them out for training and leveling. Anyway, the rule of internal affairs heroes is mainly used to target the mediocre peasant population.

And Zong Shen also discovered one thing.

That is, the labor of the internal affairs can also improve the experience value.

Just like Mariel, although her level has not improved, her experience points have increased a lot.

Over time, you can slowly increase the level.

This can explain the heroic talents of the aborigines in the village and in the state city.

Why can there be a certain level of foundation.

Just like Howie, he has been busy at Gotti Castle for more than ten years, and it is not a problem to be promoted to a dozen levels.

"I understand."

"Tell Howie later."

"Let him pick 200 relatively strong farmers."

"With enough mining picks, go to the mine."

"Give this group to Dutra."

"It's the kobold chiefs who teach them how to mine."

"Let him be quicker with his hands and feet, and be sure to rush back to the territory before noon."

Zong Shen instructed Mariel seriously.

Looking at Mariel who was saluting in front of her,

He remembered one more thing.

"Go and inform Doris, Vereesa, and Colby."

"Everyone gathers before twelve noon."

"Except for the few wolf cavalry squads who are responsible for patrolling the mines and territories."

"Everyone else must be there, and there is a major expedition mission."

Zong Shen said with his hands behind his back.

Mariel nodded.

"I know my lord."

"I will convey your order well."

Looking at the serious Mariel, her round face was smooth and delicate.

With a girl's unique sense of fullness and tenderness.

Zong Shen couldn't help but reached out and squeezed his chubby cheek.

"Okay, let's go."

He waved his hand, indicating that Mariel can leave.

I saw that her cheeks were flushed with rosy color, and she turned her horse shyly with her head lowered.

Escaped and left here.

Zong Shen looked at her back and took a look at her recent attributes.

It was discovered that Mariel's aptitude has changed from the original excellent level to the rare level.

The corresponding attributes are also directly increased by about 30%.

This is a big improvement.

When Mariel first joined, she only had the qualifications of the elite level.

He used a [Complete Blue Soul] to raise it to Excellent.

As for the current rare-level qualifications, he has not interfered.

Without his orders, Mariel wouldn't touch the precious purple soul.

He wanted to get a [dusty soul container (purple)] before, and out of there three [complete purple souls].

One of them has already been used up.

Used to build the [Giant Wolf's Nest].

The remaining two are still in the storage box and have not been used.

This shows that Mariel's aptitude changes are natural.

These days, she has taken over the internal affairs of the territory, which is also an experience for herself.

This further proved Zong Shen's previous guess.

Through learning and honing and training in various affairs, aptitude can be improved the day after tomorrow.

The attribute of qualification actually represents a comprehensive ability.

The stronger the ability, the higher the qualification.

Also, everyone's personality is different.

This is just like the original three fat people, they are much more efficient than those dull and qualified farmers.

After discovering Mariel's change, Zong Shen didn't make a sound.

Silently watched her leave the central area on a prairie horse.

Go to the living quarters from the inner city gate on the east.

It was still early, four or five hours before noon.

Zong Shen decided to go to the [Library] to have a look.

He had set a flag before, reading for two hours a day, and living a happy life for the rest of his life.

Thinking of this, he resolutely decided to start reading today.

"It's still the most convenient flash of that guy from Reis."

"Should she go to the Magic Hall?"

Zong Shen muttered to himself and took out the weight-bearer mecha.

Now that the territory is large, transportation is needed everywhere.

It takes a lot of time to hike.

Of course, the most convenient way is to flash.

Anywhere within five kilometers.

With a sigh in his heart, Zong Shen sat in the driver's seat.

Activate the weight-bearer mecha and drive towards the [Library].

Buildings like this are all placed in the central circle, and it is only a kilometer or two away from here.

At the speed of the heavy-bearer mech, it only takes three or four minutes.

[Advanced Library] It belongs to the fourth-order special knowledge building,

There are four floors in total, each floor is five meters high, plus the height of ten steps is three meters, the total height is twenty-three meters, not counting the height of the roof decorations.

The single floor covers an area of ​​31,400 square meters.

The four floors are of the same size.

There are some books in the library.

Not counting the books he had gotten his hands on.

The first three floors of the library have a total of 140 books.

In the library, reading efficiency will increase by 30%. Gained reading attribute buff will be increased by 50%.

Therefore, it has become the best place to study and study.

This library is a circular building, and Zong Shen has already seen it.

There is also a huge book statue on the top floor.

The associated uses of the building are fully displayed.

Zong Shen stopped the heavy-bearer mecha at the door.

He put it away and walked up the steps to the door of the library.

There are two doors in the library.

Corresponds to the east-west direction.

The whole body is made of gray and white marble bricks.

No fancy banners, slogans.

Everything seemed so clean.

The door is a heavy solid wood sliding door.

There is a transparent floor-to-ceiling window at intervals on the wall.

Let outside light be brought into it.

After gently pushing the door open, Zong Shen entered sideways.

In addition to the rows of bookcases on the first floor, there are many simple round stools and square tables.

The interior was very quiet, and it seemed that no one came to read at this time.

There is a spiral staircase in the center, connecting each floor.

But in fact there is no need to go upstairs at all.

Because there is another mystery in the library building.

When he entered the door, faint light spots appeared and gathered into a little girl of five or six years old.

The little girl was in the projection state, looking at Zong Shen with a smile on her face.

"Please tell me what books do you need to read?"

"I can quickly get the eligible books for you."

Seeing this little girl's projection, Zong Shen couldn't help being stunned.

"So smart?"

He muttered to himself in his heart.

The little girl's projection didn't rush, and she stood still with a smile on her face.

It looks a little formal, not like having intelligence.

Although there was some hesitation in his heart, he quickly made his request.

"I need books that add charm."

Books do not increase Constitution-type attributes such as Strength and Agility.

In addition to relying on books to master a certain technology, it can only add some wisdom and charm attributes.

Among them, the charm attribute is just what he needs.

It is an essential attribute to increase the dominance value.

In addition, charm can also have a certain impact on appearance.

In other words, the more attractive you are, the more handsome you can be.

Zong Shen doesn't know how much the specific charm can be improved.

Anyway, the appearance of this thing has to be seen by nature, and the acquired charm blessing can only play a supporting role.

Zong Shen's charisma at 70 or 80 is now a million points handsome.

Compared with the majority of readers, there is still a big gap.

After he made the request, the little girl's projection also got feedback immediately.

The phantoms of the books appeared.

[Book: "Elementary School Questions about Dressing Up"]

[Book: "Exquisite Noble Life"]

[Book: "Memoirs of Gluck's March"]

...

At present, the collection of books in the library is not full, and it can only be selected from the more than 100 existing books.

There are seventy or eighty books that meet the requirements for increasing charm.

The attribute gain after reading these books is mainly to charm, supplemented by a small amount of intelligence.

No way, books are just like that, and there are very few books that are purely intellectual or purely charming.

All are focused, except for those technical learning books.

Zong Shen took a cursory glance and chose a book [Book: "Gluck's Marching Memoirs"].

This is a third-order book, which is stored on the third floor of the library.

After Zong Shen's selection, the little girl's projection was not as much.

The next moment, the "Memoirs of Gluck's March" appeared in his hands.

The little girl's projection disappeared.

It's a handy little feature.

Zong Shen grabbed the book and walked towards the spiral staircase in the middle.

Walking to the third floor, I found a window seat.

From here, you can see the lord's building and even the living area.

After reading all of this book, you can increase Charisma by 12 and Wisdom by 4.

In addition, an additional 2 points of [Dominance] skill can be increased.

It's a good book.

In addition to the 50% attribute buff that comes with the library, after Zong Shen reads it, he will get 18 Charisma, 6 Wisdom, and 3 [Dominance].

However, the time required to read the book is 180 hours.

It also requires 127 hours of reading after a 30% reduction.

Zong Shen didn't think about it so much now.

Reading must be a habit, and it must be persisted over time.

He could only spare as much time as he could.

Sitting on the round stool by the window, he put the book on the table in front of him.

Open the first page gently.

Originally, he thought that reading a book was just a passing scene.

Just like construction, it starts automatically when selected, without the need to understand the underlying principles.

But it turns out he was wrong.

At least he was wrong about reading books.

These books have detailed content.

After opening, first the table of contents, followed by the preface.

Then there is the text.

This book tells the story of a regiment commander named Gluck.

This Gluck is a very famous guy in the last era of mankind.

Zong Shen read page by page.

The sun came in through the window, stretching his shadow diagonally on the ground.

As he read, a countdown state similar to a progress bar appeared next to the book.

This countdown starts at 127 hours.

However, the change of progress is not fixed.

Zong Shen found that as long as he stayed focused, the change in progress would improve.

That is to say, the more focused reading, the better the effect will be.

The corresponding final consumed reading time is also less.

That 127 hours is just a benchmark time for completion.

However, once he was distracted, the time of the progress bar would stagnate, and even a slight regression would appear.

After discovering this situation, Zong Shen became interested in reading.

Subconsciously, I began to focus on reading.

It took over an hour to read this.

Zong Shen blinked his eyes, feeling a little dry.

Looking at the time, it was already nine in the morning.

The content of this book is still very interesting.

It is an autobiographical story about leading soldiers into war.

There are many descriptions of the situation in the last era.

In the last era, the power of the human race was very weak.

There is only one human kingdom in the entire continent.

The total population is in the billions.

It is incomparable to the current prosperity of the human race.

Before the outbreak of the Dimension War, the continents were in a state of small-scale battles.

Orcs, undead, crypt races, elves, and humans are all fighting each other.

It is mixed with various races, including dwarves, goblins, giants...

All kinds of strange.

Sometimes they are allied with each other, and sometimes they are in opposition.

It was a chaotic era of contention among hundreds of clans.

It also made Zong Shen unknowingly indulge in it.

He closed the book and prepared to read it later.

Today he can only be considered to experience the experience.

Read it slowly afterward.

Unconsciously, his forehead was dripping with sweat.

He wiped it lightly, feeling a little stuffy.

Edge stood up, thinking about how to return the book.

said tentatively.

"I want to return the book..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a spot of light appeared in front of him again.

These light spots quickly condensed and turned into the projection of the little girl.

She still had a sweet smile on her face.

He reached out and took the book.

disappeared immediately.

"It's convenient."

"I don't know what the reason is."

"Is it soul magic?"

Zong Shen thought to himself in amazement.

He walked up the stairs, returned to the first floor, and left the library.

As soon as he opened the door, Zong Shen felt a wave of heat coming towards him.

The library is relatively sealed, and the temperature is different from the outside.

But now it feels like an exaggeration like leaving the air-conditioned room from the big summer.

In the past two hours, the outside temperature rose to at least 30 degrees Celsius.

When he got up early, Zong Shen was still saying that there was no warning for this challenge.

Now he can feel it.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the sun was already as strong as noon.

Walking down the stairs, the bright light made him feel a little dazzling.

The sun shines down with heat, and the equipment on the body gradually heats up.

After a while, he felt a little hot.

So he quickly took out the [Load Bearer Mecha] and drove it to the living area.

"True Nima fever!"

After a few minutes, Zong Shen felt his back sweating.

No wonder I felt a little stuffy when I was reading before.

Living quarters have long since undergone earth-shaking changes.

This time he came to visit Favid.

But he didn't know that Favid lived in the double-storey stone house.

Zong Shengai didn't bother to ask anyone, so he simply asked for the guide.

According to the prompt guide, I found the place where Favid is.

Although he didn't want to rely on the strategy module for everything, such small and beautiful practical functions as guidance and wayfinding still made it difficult for him to give up.

Zong Shen's arrival did not cause much disturbance.

What should everyone do.

The territory now has a lot more residents.

Many newcomers only know Zong Shen's name and don't see him.

Zong Shen did not care about this.

After the heat wave challenge is over, it's not too late to hold a mobilization meeting to get acquainted.

Jumping out of the driver's seat, Zong Shen came to this double-storey stone house.

Compared with the second-order houses, the double-storey stone houses are much more regular.

There are special sliding windows on the first and second floors.

That is, windows that open upwards.

There are two doors at the front and rear on the first floor.

All are single-leaf solid wood doors, which seem to be quite sturdy.

Zong Shen walked to the door and pushed open the door.

The door didn't move at all, it should have been locked.

He could only reach out and knock on the door.

"Dong Dong Dong!"

"Favid, open the door!"

No lord can enter the double-storey stone house freely.

With the development of the territory, these stone houses have privacy.

This also shows that the soldiers began to regard this place as their home.

Overall a good sign.

Gone are the days of eating a big pot of rice and sleeping in a big shop.
