Chapter 402: Romance Under the Cold Wind, Chen Rui’s Worries

This word of allegiance sounds familiar.

Zong Shen stood up slightly.

The smile on his face faded, revealing a solemn expression.

"You are welcome to join us."

“Everyone will find their value here.”

"Get up, you two."

Facing these cold necromancers, Zong Shen would naturally not smile playfully.

I still remember that when Tasia was recruited, she was even more unruly than the two people in front of her.

He even made rude remarks to Zong Shen and Tiezhu.

Same recruitment, different scenario.

This made Zong Shen feel a little sentimental and sad.

The two newly recruited necromancers received Zong Shen's response.

He stood up immediately and patted the soil stains on his knees.

He stood quietly on the spot, appearing silent and taciturn.

Zong Shen was not too surprised. Necromancers basically had this temperament when they were first recruited.

His eyes first glanced at the wolf cavalry.

The attributes and skills of these wolf cavalry are quite similar.

There is no big difference.

When he looked at the two necromancers, he saw something different.

The magic skills mastered by these two guys are somewhat different from Tasia's.

The attributes and qualifications are pretty much the same.

In fact, the recruitment volume is like opening a blind box.

If you are lucky, you can recruit some more powerful warriors of the same level.

For example, the fire mage Doris is a third-level fire magician, but has a rare level talent.

As well as higher intelligence attributes and more powerful magic skills.

However, third-level warriors with rare talents are not easy to deal with. If you encounter them once in a while, you are just lucky.

A normal third-level necromancer usually masters three skills.

The same is true for the rickety necromancer named Edgeworth.

His three necromancy magics are [Summon Skeleton Ax Shield Hand lv10], [Necromantic Arrow lv10], and [Rancid Mire lv10].

And the same goes for Mellie, another skinny, slab-sided necromancer.

In addition to also mastering the standard magic undead arrow, the other two magic skills are [Summon Skeleton Mage lv10] and [Caress of the Dead lv10].

The two new necromancers, like Tasia, have a different ability to summon skeletons.

There is one less passive skill called [Magic Effect Amplification] than when Tasia was first recruited.

But there are two more different control-type and curse-type skills.

The [Rancid Mire] can create a swamp area and reduce the enemy's movement speed.

And [Caress of the Dead] can greatly affect the enemy's reaction ability and mental state.

In addition, Zong Shen also discovered one thing, that is, what Tasia mastered was [Double Necromancer Arrow], while the two newly recruited Necromancers mastered ordinary [Necromancer Arrow] .

There is a big difference between the two. Dual Necron Arrows, as the name suggests, can fire two Necron Arrows at once.

This is equivalent to doubling the damage, and of course its mana consumption and chanting time are correspondingly more.

After going through so many recruitments of soldiers.

Zong Shen also discovered a very obvious situation.

The legal arms are different from the physical attack arms such as infantry, cavalry, and bows.

The former is often specific, and even mages of the same level have certain differences in strength.

Including different talents, different attributes, and different skills.

There is not much difference between the latter's physics-based arms.

The attributes and professional skills mastered are basically the same, and the degree of convergence is higher.

Of course, whether it is the legal system or the physical system, all warriors have independent personalities.

It's just that the character of each soldier is affected by his ethnicity, military type, habits, and experience.

For example, the wolf cavalry are basically young men with rough bodies, straightforward style, brave and resolute.

Necromancers, including mages from other departments, are more or less aloof.

This is the indifference and arrogance unique to spellcasters.

The powerful mental acuity and elemental sensing ability make the caster's heart often more sensitive.

In addition, the Immortal Lancers are relatively unsmiling.

There is an expression of self-discipline to the extreme.

The group characteristics of the military units often determine the combat style and methods.

There is also a very strict matching routine.

This is the so-called troop compatibility.

Zong Shen looked around and had a rough idea of ​​the new members.

While nodding, he took out ten sets of [Double-sided Wool Warm Clothes] and distributed them directly to them.

"Put them all on."

"This is Farvid."

"The current leader of the fire mage in the territory."

"You will follow him to the living area to settle down in a moment."

"Someone will distribute necessary living supplies to you."

Zong Shen pointed at Favid who was holding the prairie horse beside him and said loudly.

The newly recruited soldiers all nodded in unison.

They have just escaped from the dimensional confinement state and have not felt much about the temperature of the outside world.

But after coming out for a while, they felt cold under the cold wind.

They all put on warm clothes and came behind Favid.

Then, Zong Shen turned to Favid and added.

"Don't forget to introduce the territory to our new partners on the way."

Faced with Zong Shen's personal instructions, Favide naturally had no objections.

He quickly bowed and saluted.

"I understand, sir."

Zong Shen didn't say anything more, just nodded slightly.

Watching Favid mount the prairie horse, leading eight wolf cavalrymen and two necromancers away from the living area.

Comprehensive planning of a territory is an act that does more good than harm.

Although the various areas are dispersed, the time consumption of the journey is increased.

But it is an essential process.

Now Zong Shen only needs to gradually fill in relevant buildings according to the current territory plan.

From a long-term perspective, this can solve a series of future construction problems.

Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Zong Shen does not want to wait until the territory has built 1,800 buildings and become a mess, and then move them one by one.

If you compare the construction of a territory to a person.

So now the skeleton of the territory has come out, and the division of labor among the internal organs is also clear.

It is enough to gradually fill the blood muscles with the development process.

Zong Shen stood silently, letting the cold wind blow.

Under this climate change, Zong Shen could feel an obvious feeling of coldness and desolation.

But this also made Zong Shen feel that the world had become more vivid.

Luna led the Sentinel Panther to his side.

She gently reached out and took his arm.

Leaning his head on Zong Shen's shoulder.

The two of them stood quietly, enjoying the tranquility of the moment.

For Luna and Zong Shen's strong bodies.

The coldness now is nothing.

Even if you don't need to wear a thick fur coat, just rely on your physical fitness.

They will not be affected by the current cold wind.

Compared with ordinary farmers, both Luna and Zong Shen have physical attributes that are multiple times or even ten times higher than those of ordinary people.

Correspondingly, the physical functions of Zong Shen and others are much stronger in all aspects.

The skin is tougher and the muscles are firmer and stronger.

This includes visceral function as well.

Stronger digestive ability, detoxification ability, strong metabolism...

There are many more changes like this.

All improvements in attributes will eventually be reflected in the performance of physical fitness.

Therefore, Zong Shen's resistance to cold is also higher than that of ordinary people.

Fortunately, this is a gradual process.

He can gradually adapt and control his body perfectly.

As the saying goes, if you drink enough water, you will be satisfied.

As long as the people you love can be together, even the northwest wind is still very romantic.

…

At this moment, in the Kugit Empire in the west of the continent.

In the mountainous empire territory, there is an open basin located on the backside of the mountains.

There is a large territory in this basin.

Although the plan looks more compact than Zong Shen's territory.

But the population numbers of the two are about the same.

There is also a development trend of urbanization.

This level of development can be regarded as the top of the pyramid among the lords.

Affected by the approaching winter, there is also a gloom here.

Several entrances to the territory were blocked by Juma.

Commercial circulation has returned to a state of stagnation.

In the center of the territory, there is also a lord's courtyard.

This lord's courtyard also has three floors, and is obviously a third-level city lord's mansion.

On the third floor terrace of the lord's small building, a man wearing light blue light armor was leaning on the stone railing.

He looks very young, but his expression is a bit deep and melancholy.

From the terrace, I was looking at the mountains in the distance.

Looking from his angle, it looked vaguely like an ink painting.

The temperature here is also dropping, and the cold wind is blowing unreasonably from north to south.

Under the influence of some powerful force, those jagged mountains could not completely block the cold wind.

The young man just stood and stared, not knowing what he was thinking.

He is the reborn person, Chen Rui, who is currently second in the territory level rankings.

He is also the top "high player" among today's lords.

Both the development of the territory and personal force are at the top level.

If it weren't for a monster like Zong Shen who appeared out of nowhere.

Chen Rui is completely confident that he can beat the top lords and various lucky people in his previous life.

“Sure enough, the rhythm of everything changed.”

"The Winter Challenge was originally supposed to be the prelude to the second act."

"Then on the thirtieth day... it's time to change."

He muttered to himself, completely unaware that his words were silenced once again.

In fact, Chen Rui didn't care at all.

Because he has long been accustomed to such things.

As a reborn person, he is still very careful.

But after experiencing the ten years of his previous life, he had clear plans for the future.

The real disasters and challenges in the future will never be something that any one lord can withstand.

That moment is called the third act of the world.

It requires all the lords in the entire domain to unite and work together to have a chance to resist.

Only after surviving that catastrophe can we have a chance to enter the third act stage.

This is also a process of gradual evolution and advancement.

Since discovering the variable Zong Shen, Chen Rui has been trying every means to contact him these days.

He asked his heroic talents to search in the [Market] for several hours.

Finally found the listing related to Zong Shen.

And sent a private message through the listed lord information.

Unfortunately, there was no response to my messages for two or three days.

Chen Rui understood that the other party should have set up [Private Chat] Do Not Disturb.

You must know that this world is very vast.

It is difficult to measure it by the standards of the earth.

In addition to trying to chat privately, he also tried to analyze the location of Zong Shen's area.

During the crypt challenge, when the final area challenge boss was killed, the five golden banner announcements almost caused a sensation among all the lords in the region.

At that time, Chen Rui observed the [World Channel] and identified at least hundreds of lords who claimed to be from the same domain as Zong Shen in the channel information that was refreshed at high speed.

By taking the trouble to chat privately with these lords one by one, he collected some geographical information.

After statistical and filtering of this geographical information.

He was basically able to determine Zong Shen's location.

However, it was due to the limited geographical knowledge of those lords.

At present, Chen Rui can only confirm that Zong Shen is located in the eastern part of the mainland.

According to the memories of his previous life, the east was mainly ruled by the Kingdom of Avalon and the Kingdom of Nord.

In terms of location, both Nord and Avalon were far away from the Kugit Empire where he was located.

Almost across the entire continent.

In the short term, Chen Rui and Zong Shen have no chance to meet.

Even if you ride a high-speed airship or a raptor, it will take a long time to cross this distance.

Unless you use the advanced space teleportation array from the giant city to the giant city.

Chen Rui thought about this and frowned.

He must contact Zong Shen as soon as possible to find out his character.

At the same time, give the other party some hints.

Establish the basis for cooperation and plant the seeds of friendship and trust.

In the face of the Cataclysm, the competition between lords is actually not worth mentioning.

To regain this life, he is willing to make compromises and concessions as long as he can or enter the third act stage.

At this moment, a woman wearing red revealing tight-fitting leather armor and black hair in twin tails walked in from the small building.

She held a fluffy thick fur cloak in her hands and walked behind Chen Rui lightly.

The plump butt cheeks swayed slightly as she moved.

Her figure is extremely powerful, and deep ravines can be seen in the leather armor that binds her body.

There is also a tough cowhide strap on the shoulder, diagonally surrounding her waist and crotch.

On the cowhide, there are four or five daggers of different styles.

Following her pace, swaying forward and back.

The only thing that didn't fit the human aesthetic was her skin color.

Every inch of exposed skin on the body is light green.

This green is not as dark green as green-skinned orcs or goblins.

But it is a fresh light green, and the skin is equally delicate and smooth.

She looks similar to a human woman, except that the canine teeth on her lower lip are more obvious.

It looks wildly beautiful.

His every move was full of wild energy.

"Sir, it's getting cold."

"Put on this bearskin cloak."
