Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing From a Rundown Yard

Chapter 614 Thinking About the "Human Nature" Of the Territorial People, Accepting Unowned Territories【Seeking Monthly Pass】【5K】

There are dozens of sweet potato seedlings planted here.

Due to the large coverage of [Advanced Farmland], it should be placed outside the fortress.

All of this is to ensure that the sweet potato industry can be safe and sound.

In the entire territory, the safest place is, of course, the lord fortress.

"Salomei, you did a great job!"

A smile appeared on Zong Shen's face.

For him, this is also great news.

"As a senior agronomist, it is also my duty to cultivate crops."

"Actually, the sweet potato itself is very easy to grow."

"The sweet potato vine you gave me has a total of four sprouts, so I cut it into four sections and cultivated at the same time."

"The Moon God Spring gives them enough nutrients, plus the growth and blessing of fertile soil."

"Cultivation to survive is inevitable."

"Finally, it is ripened by natural magic."

"Four large tubers and two ramets were obtained."

"By growing these tubers, you get more shoots."

Salome Lin Yu said with some pride.

"Then at such a cultivation speed, wouldn't it be possible to plant on a large scale soon?"

Zong Shen was overjoyed, his roasted sweet potatoes, roasted sweet potatoes, sweet potato bombs…

It seems to be close at hand!

As soon as these words came out, Salome Lin Yu shook his head.

"No, my lord."

"There is a possibility of degeneration of plants under continuous growth and cultivation."

"After degradation, yield and quality are greatly affected."

"So after a growth spurt and cultivation, it is best to breed one batch naturally, and the next batch to grow again."

"You don't have to worry, even if you don't use natural magic, with fertile fields and Luna Spring as protection, this batch of sweet potatoes should all mature within 7 to 9 days, and more plants will be able to be cultivated by then."

Salome said softly, as if comforting Zong Shen.

Zong Shen nodded, indicating that he understood.

Although the 7-9 day cycle is not as mature as the previous day, it is also ridiculously fast.

At this rate and trend, it will be a matter of time before sweet potato freedom is realized.

Now what Zong Shen has to do is let Salome Lin Yuhaosheng take care of these sweet potato vines.

"I still have things to deal with."

"If you need anything in the future, you can still contact Mariel."

Zong Shen said hello a little and walked towards the stairs of the fortress.

After opening the heavy fortress gate, he always felt an illusion that a long time had passed.

At this moment, the intermediate space mage Rise Ulysses was sitting hunched over in the living room waiting for his arrival, and there was a half bucket of [Magic Spring] on the round table in front of him.

This was also what Zong Shen had ordered before.

When he walked into the lord's fortress, Reis immediately stood up tremblingly.

She was still as old as ever, moving slowly and breathing weakly.

However, in actual combat, as long as her teammates cooperate, her combat effectiveness is not weak at all.

In addition, because of the powerful characteristics of the space system, she has become a good partner in battle.

"You are quite fast."

"I need you, Rhys Ulysses."

Zong Shen said with a smile.

I saw Rise Ulysses standing there and nodding slightly, without saying much.

Zong Shen was used to her reaction.

Her taciturnity comes from the aging and decay of her body.

Unlike the Rasma guy, who simply disdains conversation.

Speaking of Rasma, she is still staying in the [Fengling Altar (Orange)].

At that time, she had already turned into a shadow state and possessed the characteristics of a soul body, so she was suppressed by the [Fengling Altar], which was somewhat opportunistic.

Zong Shen still hasn't figured out how to deal with Rasma.

If released, you have to be prepared to fight her.

This guy is a sixth-order archmage and a undead god.

Once he shows his power, he will not be much weaker than the runaway little black dragon.

Especially in the territory, it is very likely to cause serious casualties to farmers and low-level warriors.

However, there is one thing that makes Zong Shen very strange, that is, after Rasma was banned, his loyalty did not drop, and it remained the same as before.

There may be some hidden secrets in it.

It's a pity that Zong Shen is pressed for time, and he can't take care of Rasma for the time being, so he can only wait for a while.

Tucked the hair on his head, Zong Shen quickly walked towards Reese Ulysses.

He grabbed her wrist like a withered branch.

Compared to Zong Shen, who was full of blood and had a steady body temperature, Ruisi's body was outrageously weak.

The body temperature is also not obvious, at least it is colder than normal people.

Originally, she was also a rare talent, a rare talent in space magic.

But in order to pursue the taboo, the body is integrated into the space, otherwise it will not become like this.

Zong Shen sighed in his heart.

These banned fighters from the recruitment volume actually had their own stories and personalities before the ban, and although the ban gave them a second life, it seemed to stifle part of their "humanity" and subjective desires.

Zong Shen actually discovered this very early.

The performance of the farmers is particularly obvious. Except for a few farmers who are relatively flexible, the other farmers are a little dull, as if they lack the emotions and desires that belong to normal people.

If you have food every day, there will be basically no trouble.

Occasionally there are relatively lively farmers.

For example, San Fatty, or Sansha, the farmer who just arrived, and those farmers with high qualifications.

The exact reason is yet to be answered by Zong Shen.

More active than the farmers are the warriors.

However, strictly compared, there is still a gap between soldiers and normal people.

This gap is also reflected in desire and human nature.

Finally, there are hero-level talents. Their humanity and emotions are similar to ordinary people, and only a small amount of emotional factors are suppressed and become more obedient.

But this is not absolute.

The amount of human nature and emotion seems to be related to aptitude, combat power, character, and the importance of the lord.

From Colby to Faved, to the rangers and mages at the beginning of the advent are more active than the other warriors.

There are also well-qualified fighters like Kanigia and Rathma who are also active and able to maintain their original personality and some ideas.

Zong Shen also asked about the Raiders module.

The answer is that the time has not come.

This so-called "timing" is very intriguing.

Zong Shen couldn't help but think of the stage terms "Second Act" and "Third Act".

Obviously, the lack of humanity and desire of the people and the loyalty limit will become very easy to rule.

Many trivial troubles will disappear, more like a qualified tool person.

Zong Shen speculates that this situation is obviously caused by the lord system.

It should disappear completely in due course.

But exactly how long it will take at this time is an unknown.

He doesn't know, neither does the Raiders module.

This shows that the lord system itself does not know, perhaps it is decided according to the average development progress of the lords, and the lords will become alive on that day.

No longer like an emotionless NPC and tool person.

However, after that, the problem of governance will probably follow.

What Zong Shen has to do is to complete the reform of the freedmen as soon as possible and give every citizen a normal life.

The thoughts in my head are always like a storm.

He stood in front of Rhys Ulysses for a moment, lost in thought.

After ten or so seconds of silence, he came back to his senses.

"Come on, flash to the outside of the fort."

"My new beast is waiting for us."

He said softly, and Rhys Ulysses' body trembled.

Blue light overflowed from her body.

Zong Shen only felt a flash in front of his eyes, and the next moment he appeared outside the lord's fortress, beside Xiao Heizi.

"Evil black dragon..."

Reese said in a low voice in surprise.

Although the voice was small, it still caught the attention of Kuroko.

It slowly raised its neck and aimed its head at Reis, its upper jaw trembled, and it bared its teeth.

If it wasn't for Zong Shen, according to his previous style, I'm afraid he would have eaten Reese Ulysses in one bite.

"You show your uncle's teeth!"

"Ma Liu, lie down for me."

"If you don't obey me, I will kill you with a big sword!"

Zong Shen saw Xiao Heizi's reaction and kicked it cursingly.

After spending a few hours together, he could be considered to have a little understanding of Xiaoshuizi's temperament.

In addition to the typical greed for money and lust, this guy also has the attributes of bullying the soft and fearing the hard.

If you're too gentle with it, this kid will think you're a jerk, and when the wind stops and the rain stops, it thinks it's okay again.

On the contrary, scolding when you should, and choking when you need to choke is better.

Sure enough, after being slapped by Zong Shen, Little Blackie became honest again.

It turned its head and let out a stubborn and arrogant snort.

The body slowly fell down...

Zong Shen nodded in satisfaction, habitually picking up the collar behind Ruisi's neck.

But looking at the old appearance, I couldn't bear it in my heart.

After thinking about it, he still carried her on his back, and then nimbly climbed onto the saddle on the back of Xiaoshuizi, put her in a suitable position, and told her to hold on to the reins, and by the way put the [Magic Spring] 】to put in the storage compartment.

Just let Reese hold it like this, and after a while, the flight was bumpy and it was half a bucket.

Tonight's task is very heavy, when Zong Shen asked the Raiders module to mark the unowned territory in the area.

In an instant, dense golden marks appeared in the field of vision.

As he turned his head, there were numerous golden circles in almost every direction.

The total is at least between 500 and 600.

Most of the unclaimed territories are the work of the little black dragon.

There are also a small number of lord casualties from other dangers in the area.

Such as encountering an attack by a beast or a monster.

Or go deep into the ruins and encounter danger caused by death.

There are also factors like the Balrog and the Goblin Horde.

However, in a short period of time, a small number of unowned territories were taken over by lords who accidentally discovered that the territory was unowned or that the original territory was nearby.

In general, most of the unclaimed territories remain.

This time, there is a small flame demon incident, and the lords' response will not be as timely as before.

And Zong Shen's goal is to pack and bring back all the territories he can receive before noon tomorrow.

Taking into account the time factor and other lords will receive it one after another, such a natural loss is inevitable. Zong Shen's small goal is to receive more than 350 unowned territories.

To this end, he is ready to fight a protracted war.

Because this time the number of unowned territories is exceptionally large.

Therefore, according to the old tradition, Zongshen was divided into four districts according to their orientation.

He was going to go east first, because there were the fewest unclaimed territories in that direction.

After choosing the nearest target, Zong Shen let Xiao Heizi set off.

He is doomed to sleepless tonight, and the temporary combat teams that he sent are almost going to return to the territory.

During the flight of Kuroko, he took out two servings of scones and two servings of jerky.

One for Reese, one for himself.

After being busy for a long time, his hunger has dropped below 65 points.

As for the little blackie, he is still full of hunger and satiety.

When it was rampant before, so many lords and accompanying soldiers fed it directly...

According to this standard of hunger and satiety, it would not be a big problem to fly until tomorrow, and Zong Shen could take care of it for one meal.

In this way, Zong Shen abandoned the strangling Little Flame Demon, abandoned the people in the territory, and ran alone on the road to take over the unowned territory.

This is also impossible.

Regarding taking over the territory, he can't even ask his heroes to do it for him.

One is because only he has the Raiders module for navigation.

Secondly, there is only one intermediate space mage who can open the [Shadow Wormhole] in the territory.

Let the hero under him do it for him, without him pointing the direction in real time, it will not work at all.

Rather than that, it would be more agile for him to do it all by himself.

"The lord is bitter, the lord is tired, the lord can't sleep well every night..."

Zong Shen shook his head and sighed while chewing on the jerky.

Rhys Ulysses ignored his bells and whistles, and chewed and tore off a piece of scones.

In this way, the two of them rushed towards the unowned territory to the east!

...

After dark, Moonlight becomes the world's only colorist.

The color of heaven and earth suddenly became monotonous.

Fires in territories above ground are obvious sources of light.

Under such circumstances, the earth also became mottled.

It was already past eleven o'clock in the evening, and there was still about half an hour before the morning.

All the temporary combat teams in and out of Zongshen's territory all returned to the territory.

Including the poisonous fog swamp where the same is true.

Faved and Howie all fulfilled Zong Shen's orders.

Now there is only a group of lion charge knights, a group of lion guard knights and those lion skeleton knights patrolling outside the Poison Marsh.

After the departure of the little black dragon, the red-scaled kobolds and hyenamen in the poisonous swamp quickly returned to normal under the subrogation of Ulysses and Douglas Stone.

In addition, the food in the Poisonous Mist Swamp is sufficient, and those catfish with eight beards are the best food source. All they have to do is lick the wounds quietly and gradually restore the reproduction of the group.

Looking down on the ground from the air, in addition to the fires in those territories, there are also sparse little Balrogs, whose bodies are formed by the power of demons condensing fire elemental bodies.

The lively fire element exudes orange-red light all the time.

It is like a torch made of lava, which is very eye-catching under the night.

After half a day of tossing and turning, the number of Little Flame Demons decreased a lot.

The distribution density is also significantly sparser.

Now all the temporary combat teams have returned to the territory, according to Vereesa's report not long ago.

In this operation, a total of four wolf cavalrymen, an Avalon light crossbowman, a thunder mage apprentice, and a water mage were wounded.

Most of the casualties occurred during the battle with the Little Balrog.

In the absence of clear command and high-level combat power, casualties are inevitable.

Although the Little Flame Demon is not strong, it is also a special high-level captain-level monster.

The combat mission of each temporary combat team is not just to fight a small Balrog.

So casualties are normal.

Although Zong Shen was a little distressed and sighed, he was still able to accept it.

In addition, it needs to be emphasized that the [Rescue] skill is a passive skill of the team, and the corresponding lord or hero-level talent who has passed the [Rescue] skill must personally lead the team to take effect.

So these casualties are basically irreparable.

After all, this time the soldiers in the territory were scattered into dozens of teams.

There are simply not so many hero-level talents with [Rescue] who can go out with the team.

However, the temporary combat teams that suffered casualties brought back the bodies of their comrades.

The [Tower of Heroic Souls of Warriors] in the territory successfully received the heroic souls of fallen soldiers.

When necessary, they will reappear in their soul state to guard the territory again.

As for the corpse, let the Frost Raven freeze first. Zong Shen plans to hold a mourning meeting tomorrow and choose a place near the territory as the home of the heroic spirit.

Including the wolf cavalry Amato, who was sacrificed in the mine.

Commemorate deceased comrades and enhance the team awareness of the territory.

And this time the casualties should be regarded as the biggest one after the arrival.

In the past, under his personal coordination, there were basically no injuries or few injuries.

In danger, he usually goes out on his own.

In addition to the casualties caused by the extermination of the little Balrog, the number of Balrog Keys harvested this time is still being counted, and each team will collect the Balrog Keys to Luna.

From the change of points, Zong Shen can basically draw a rough data.

During these four or five hours, he himself was not idle,

All the unclaimed territories in the east have been accepted, and the final total number of receptions is 118.

At this time, he was receiving in the north, and he had just received less than 50.

The transferred resources can be said to be piled up like a mountain, and the storage box can no longer fit.

At the back, the transferred resources simply piled up in the open space of the territory.

There are also hundreds of various defense arrow towers of various levels that have been migrated back.

He also moved back a lot of buildings such as [Market], [Second-Order Technology Research Institute], [Third-Order Technology Research Institute], low-level and intermediate-level workshops, and fertile fields.

As long as it was useful, Zong Shen never let it go!
