Chapter 235: While expansion is in progress, strange birds attack (4000 that day)

With Zong Shen's current strength, except for the commander-level monsters around him, he can ignore them all.

Of course, if there are really commander-level monsters attracted by the expansion of the territory, then Zong Shen will be more happy. After all, each commander-level monster means a lot of rewards.

Moreover, the lairs or ruins occupied by leader-level monsters often have treasure chests or other harvests.

Level three territory expansion is still not difficult for Zong Shen.

This wave of offensive consisted of some prairie porcupines and more than a dozen horse bandits. When he discovered that the target was the horse bandits, Zong Shen decisively used his lord authority to close all the defense towers and also stopped the attack by the ancient guardians. .

The horse bandits were all riding prairie horses of different colors, holding a scimitar in their hands. They galloped towards them from the west side of the territory. Zong Shen and his men took the initiative to greet them.

He himself led the troops to deal with these horse bandits.

Just kidding, these guys are just here to send horses. If the arrow tower and the ancient guardians are allowed to deal with them, they will end up with both men and horses broken.

"Everyone just deal with the gangsters, don't hurt the horses!"

Zong Shen explained that the level of these horse bandits was not high. The leader was a captain-level horse bandit. His level was similar to that of the ruthless bandit Carlisle. He should have been patrolling near the territory and was attracted by the expansion of the territory.

These horse bandits all looked ferocious, with wine bags hanging from their waists. They either had scarred faces or beards, their faces were full of flesh, and their rosy complexions seemed to never lack the nourishment of wine and meat.

The dragon-turned-gun-shield warrior set up his shield and thrust his spear diagonally in front of him. The wolf cavalry and Luna had begun to use the mobility of their mounts to move around and double-team up from both sides.

The mages began to chant magic, and Vereesa also raised her long bow. She narrowed her eyes slightly to lock the target, then quickly drew an arrow, drew the bow, and shot the arrow in one go.

A sharp arrow flew out and accurately hit the eye of a horse bandit. The arrow was so powerful that it penetrated half of the horse bandit's head and almost penetrated the back of the horse bandit's head.

This blow was definitely a fatal injury. A huge amount of damage appeared from the head of the horse bandit. The next moment he fell off the horse and was trampled by other horses galloping behind him.

The grassland was immediately stained red with blood. After the novice period ended, the battle became much more cruel and bloody than before.

Zong Shen directly took out the Disaster War Spear and used it as a long stick. He raised it high and swept it across, knocking all three or four horse bandits off their horses.

The remaining horse bandits were targeted with arrows and magic attacks, and were all killed before they could even reach the city gate.

The prairie porcupines attracted from the other side were also intercepted by the second wolf cavalry team. Those prairie porcupines can shoot out back stabs by squeezing their muscles, which can be regarded as a long-range attack beast.

Each porcupine is about the size of a wolfdog, and its body is covered with spikes.

Don't be surprised if you see a bald-skinned porcupine on the grassland. This guy must have shot all his back spines, and the meat of the porcupine is very tender and has a unique flavor.

Zong Shen had eaten roasted arrow pork once before. It was much more delicious than roasted wolf meat. The meat had juices locked in it and there was no unpleasant smell. It was one of the better-tasting beasts on the prairie.

This territory expansion mission is not so much a challenge as it is a benefit to Zong Shen.

The horse bandits were all wiped out, and the porcupines were also wiped out. Zong Shen asked the wolf cavalry to keep the horse bandits' weapons and valuables. The bodies were dragged away and buried several kilometers away from the territory. place.

Sixteen grassland horses were left behind, all of which were brought back to the territory by Zong Shen, just in time to further increase the territory's mount reserves.

As for the porcupines, they were all brought back to the territory, and the skin was peeled and divided into delicious porcupine meat. They could have a meal tonight to subsidize the food consumption of the territory.

More than two hundred kobolds, seventy or eighty warriors, and fifty or sixty farmers consume a large amount of food every day. This is why Zong Shen is committed to reform. There is no future for the big pot rice system alone.

Everyone needs to work according to instructions when eating from a big pot. In fact, there is no motivation to produce at all.

After dealing with this wave of enemies, Zong Shen returned to the entrance of the small courtyard, preparing to start the next level of territory expansion.

[Territory: Level 3]

[City Lord’s Mansion: Level 2]

[Current expandable range: 4000 meters in radius, expansion will be successful after completing the land expansion task]

[Click to start expansion]

Level 4 territory expansion mission will attract 30 random enemies within a radius of 20 kilometers.

You must know that the famous Chen Rui still maintains a level 4 territory.

Maybe that guy had some adventures, and it doesn't rule out that that guy is also "stuck", but once Zong Shen shows his true strength, he really deserves it, and he is bound to win this first place.

Decisively reopening the defense tower and allowing the ancient guardian to resume the attack, Zong Shen clicked again to start expansion. Once expanded to level 4, his territory will expand to a circular area with a diameter of 8 kilometers, covering approximately 50.4 square meters. kilometers of territory.

This territory is basically enough for ordinary lords, but Zong Shen is still not satisfied. He has to go up to two or three levels at least.

The greater the territory's expansion, the wider the legion's recruiting range. When the time comes, you can be picky and select the members, so you don't have to travel around for a member like Medina did.

Either we don't do it, or if we do, we have to make high-quality products, form the most powerful regional legion, and establish our status as a regional hegemon. This is Zong Shen's small goal.

The fourth-level expansion mission began, and after a few minutes of waiting, enemies began to arrive one after another.

This time it was a group of coyotes plus a few goblin scouts, as well as other beast-like monsters.

This person is not here to challenge Zong Shen. This person is simply here to deliver food. He is here specifically to subsidize food for the territory.

However, those goblins were rare visitors. Zong Shen had not seen them for a long time since he saw two groups of goblins fighting the spider web monster in the mine.

These attracted goblins are all lightly-armed scouts. They wander around, inquiring about information and looking for targets for the tribe.

Who would have known that today was a bad day, and he happened to be attracted by Zong Shen's expansion mission. As soon as he entered the territory, he was strangled by those wolf-like warriors.

In the other direction, more than twenty prairie wolves rushed towards them. As soon as they got within a thousand meters of their territory, they found a powerful blow from the ancient guardian. The solid fruit as big as a basin directly accelerated through parabola and hit them directly.

The arrow tower also began to exert force, and sharp arrows were shot out stably and accurately, as if knitted drizzle spread on the bodies of those prairie wolves.

He directly pricked the leading prairie wolves into hedgehogs. However, the prairie wolves were very tenacious and had high armor value. They were charging while carrying the arrows on their bodies.

But no matter how ferocious and tenacious these steppe wolves were, they could not break through the blockade of the arrow tower and the ancient guardian. By the time a group of soldiers arrived, these steppe wolves were completely wiped out.

In less than an hour, Zong Shen's territory was upgraded from level 1 to level 4. He had accumulated strength for such a long time, and it was easy to start upgrading now.

Zong Shen's current territory level ranking has been directly promoted to fourth place. Like Chen Rui, they are all level 4 territories. After a few days of silence, Chen Rui is gradually being caught up.

However, Zong Shen estimated that that guy also had some spare energy, so he just paused temporarily. In the future, his guy is likely to be his strong rival to compete for the top spot in the rankings.

Zong Shen was too lazy to worry about these things. In the final analysis, the core factor of competing for the rankings still depends on the strength of oneself and the territory.

Those prairie wolves were quickly eliminated. Then came hints of successful expansion.

Zong Shen still asked his soldiers to drag the wolf corpse back, while the Goblin scouts stripped off their equipment and buried it on the spot a little far away from the territory. This humanoid creature could only contribute some equipment and experience, and was covered in green. They can't be eaten, and the most important thing is that the human form is too uncomfortable for people.

Prairie wolves and porcupines were more affordable. Those beasts dragged back by the soldiers were all called by Mariel to the farmers to fetch clean water and knives, disembowel them, cut them into pieces of fine meat as thick as forearms, and give them to the three fat men to unify. deal with.

If nothing else goes wrong, the meat of these beasts will appear on the territory’s dining table tonight.

Zong Shen stood there with his eyes closed in boredom, and yawned slowly.

Compared with his combat experience, the difficulty of this territory expansion mission was nothing to him.

Not to mention he can avoid some risks in advance by asking for strategies.

Seeing that the territory expansion was completed, Zong Shen naturally did not delay any longer and opened the [Territory] interface again to prepare for the next level of expansion mission.

[Territory: Level 4]

[City Lord’s Mansion: Level 2]

[Current expandable range: 5,000 meters in radius, expansion will be successful after completing the land expansion task]

[Click to start expansion]

As long as you reach level 5, you can become number one in the current rankings.

"I hope some more powerful monsters will come this time."

"Otherwise it would be too boring."

Zong Shen said boredly.

It wasn't that he was inflated, it was indeed that this expansion mission was not exciting enough for him, not difficult, and lacked passion. This made Zong Shen, who was used to fierce battles, a little sleepy.

The fifth level expansion mission will attract 40 random hostile targets within a range of 25 kilometers.

Each time the hostile range will be expanded by 5 kilometers, and the hostile targets will be increased by 10.

But all hostile targets are randomly selected from the range. No matter where they are, the number of ordinary monsters will always be much greater than the number of powerful monsters.

Therefore, the possibility of picking ordinary monsters is the greatest, but if there are few hostile targets left in the range, then it is very likely to select those powerful monsters dormant in the range.

When others expand their territory, they hope that the monsters will be as weak as possible, but Zong Shen now wants to attract some powerful monsters. Of course, those such as money-grubbing handsome boys are not among Zong Shen's desired goals...

After Zong Shen clicked, the expansion of the fifth-level territory officially began.

Across the distance, Zong Shen heard the sound of "rumbling". This time, a large group of prairie bulls were attracted, more than thirty of them. The horns on their heads looked full of power. This group of barbarians The cattle have all entered a state of charging and trampling. Once they gather into a group and charge, the wolf cavalry really have no way to start. Fortunately, long-range attacks and arrow tower attacks are still easy to use.

The wolf cavalry could only wander around, like a scraper, constantly harassing the charging cattle.

Zong Shen had also dealt with many prairie bulls when the beasts were boiling at night.

These guys are the herds of bison on the grassland. They have bad tempers and are very aggressive. Especially when they charge, they are even more ferocious.

But in the final analysis, these guys are just here to deliver food. If all the prairie bulls had their meat, they would be able to eat them for half a month and save a lot of food expenses.

Zong Shen still didn't take action. These cattle were just for the soldiers to practice their skills, and to test the defense capabilities of the territory to see where these prairie bulls could rush under this situation.

While Zong Shen was eating melon and watching a show, a shadow passed over the territory, constantly hovering in the sky.

Zong Shen looked up and saw a huge black bird hovering over the territory. It was frighteningly large, not much smaller than a hippogryph.

At this time, the arrow towers in the territory automatically changed their targets, locked on the strange birds in the sky, and started shooting. The same was true for the ancient guardians, who kept throwing solid fruits as big as washbasins.

The strange bird began to perform difficult aerial maneuvers and avoided many arrows, but it still refused to leave or lift up. It was still ready to move, as if it wanted to launch an attack.

When it was making maneuvers, Zong Shen saw a saddle on the back of the bird. It seemed like someone was riding on the back of the bird. Because the strange bird moved too fast, and due to the angle of view, Zong Shen couldn't see clearly.

The strange bird has always been hovering in the air about a hundred meters above the territory, avoiding waves of attacks.

A lot of arrows have been inserted into the body, and the feathers on the palms and the bright red blood are falling like raindrops. The blood is very strange. It seems to be exuding endless ice coldness during the scattering process. When it hits the ground, it is like a drop of blood near the ground. The place was frozen, and there were white streaks of frost all around.

"Chirp!!"

The strange bird let out a long cry and began to swoop down, spitting out white cold air from its mouth.

This time Zong Shenke could see clearly that there was indeed a person on the back of the bird.

This one wore a leather hat and a suit of light armor with the emblem of a raven engraved on it.

Apparently this guy is also a member of the Calamity Raven Church

There is also a round message bucket on his waist. He looks more like a scout than a warrior.

Looking at the strange bird knight's confused expression, Zong Shen had already guessed what was going on.
