Chapter 302: Purchasing supplies, Raven Puppet [Anti-theft Chapter]

Hearing what Zong Shen said, Jiang Yi immediately understood the seriousness of the problem.

Knowing that this would be a shocking secret, Zong Shen was actually willing to share it with her, obviously treating her as one of his own.

She didn't expect Zong Shen to trust her so much. Thinking of this, Jiang Yi was actually a little touched.

"Don't worry, I already know what to do!"

"I will never tell anyone about this!"

Jiang Yi said very firmly that she would never tell this matter to a second person.

"Where are your siblings?"

Zong Shen was still a little worried. He didn't plan to tell Jiang Yi originally, but if he wanted to develop in the region in the future, he would have to support some close helpers. Because of this idea, he took the initiative to remind Jiang Yi.

Hearing Zong Shen ask this, Jiang Yi on the other side of the crystal was stunned, and then said softly.

"Don't worry, adults, I..."

"I am an orphan. My parents had a car accident when I was three years old, and both of my parents passed away."

“I grew up in a local orphanage called Qidian.”

"And I don't have any biological brothers or sisters, so my [Friends and Relatives Channel] is also gray..."

After hearing Jiang Yi's words, Zong Shen asked about the guide prompts in his mind.

"Is what she said true?"

(real)

The answer to the strategy prompt was very simple. Zong Shen took one look and dismissed the subtitles.

"sorry…"

"Go ahead and get ready. Get supplies now."

"Tomorrow's final challenge, let's gather together to bring a perfect ending to this crypt challenge."

Zong Shen said apologetically, he really didn't expect Jiang Yi's life experience to be so pitiful.

Without her parents' help and care, she must have suffered a lot.

Zong Shen now understood why there were so many calluses on Jiang Yi's palms. This meant that she was often engaged in manual labor such as transportation, so there were so many round calluses on her grip.

"Okay, I'll go get ready."

"Goodbye, Legion Commander. I will contact you if anything happens."

Jiang Yi quickly replied that in the past ten or twenty years, she had already accepted her life experience, but she still felt a little sad when she mentioned it, but she didn't hate Zong Shen because of it.

The two sides quickly hung up on Crystal. After learning the news, Jiang Yi became anxious.

At this time, Mariel had already awakened a team of wolf riders, and asked two dragon-shaped gun and shield warriors to drive her in a loader mecha, and together they set off towards the east gate of the territory and rushed to Xitano Village.

Zong Shen himself also walked towards the territory. The breeze was still blowing and there was no sign of stopping.

The entire continent is very vast, and different regions have different climate characteristics.

For example, Zong Shen knew that the northern part of the continent was all covered with ice fields, and there were also human kingdoms and some ice alien races on the ice fields.

The southern part of the mainland has a hot climate, and geographical differences also create climate differences.

If the entire continent entered winter at the same time, just thinking about it would be terrifying.

However, the power of the lord system can indeed achieve this step. Just like the crypt challenge, those crypt monsters are like two worlds to the indigenous people, neither interfering nor affecting each other, but for the lords Speaking of which, these cave monsters are real.

The same is likely to be true for climate challenges, which have no impact on indigenous peoples and only impact on seigneurial forces.

Zong Shen also has many questions about this, but the specific challenge rules will not be seen until the specific system announcement is released.

For example, the lords of the northern ice fields were in a cold environment as soon as they landed. Their corresponding living habits and material reserves were very targeted. These lords were able to face the cold winter more calmly.

As for the lords in the hot southern regions, I am afraid they would never think of stocking up on cold-warming supplies. These lords would be even more passive when facing the challenges of the cold winter.

These problems actually need to be solved by the lord system. Zong Shen feels that the lord system will definitely adjust the challenges of lords in different regions according to regional differences.

Now, Zong Shen no longer cares about whether the lords in other areas can meet the challenge. His own preparations have not been completed yet.

He went straight to the [Market] and began to search for supplies to keep out the cold. Now he is hoarding some. In addition to meeting the needs of his own territory, if there is any excess, he can give it to legion members or sell it to the [Market]. Carry out sales.

After some searching, Zong Shen found a lot of cold-warming supplies in the [market].

Most of them came from the lords of the northern ice fields.

For example, the [Wasteland Bandit's Coat], which is white and ordinary grade, is a trophy obtained from the ice bandits. There are quite a few of these, and it seems to be an extremely common equipment item in the ice field.

Among them, one lord with the largest number of items sold 23 items in a single transaction, probably because he had wiped out some ice bandit den.

The price for sale is not expensive. After all, this thing is really worthless. It is the standard equipment for living on the ice field. If you want to survive on the ice field, you can have no money, but you cannot live without a jacket of your own.

Whether they are wasteland bandits or aboriginal villagers, including the lords on the ice fields, everyone has one.

The status of this thing is equivalent to the daily clothing worn by the aborigines here in Zongshen.

So its price is not expensive at all, and you can buy one for only 40 parts of wood.

Now the market prices are basically balanced, and everyone sells the same things at similar prices.

Mariel exchanged iron for a lot of wood during this period, and there were almost no recent construction projects in the territory, which left Zong Shen with more than 30,000 pieces of wood on hand.

He directly swept away all the large coats and clothes on the market and purchased a total of 271 pieces. Because the prices fluctuated a bit, he spent a total of 100,000 pieces of wood.

While he was rushing to buy big coats, there were also people buying with him, but their efforts were much smaller than his. They only purchased more than thirty pieces in total. Zong Shen blindly guessed that it was Jiang Yi.

These big and dirty coats were all made of the furs of thick-haired beasts. There were also a few woolen coats that didn't look very good, and they didn't know how long they had been worn.

Zong Shen piled all these big coats at the door. There were more than two hundred coats in a pile.

After these jackets were taken out, they piled up together and emitted a stinky smell.

They all have a sour and greasy smell.

These big coats must be washed. Zong Shen plans to wait for the second and third wolf cavalry teams to store water in the water cellar, and then let them take these coats to the stream to wash them and dry them before noon tomorrow. Just dry it and you can wear it directly when the time comes.

In addition to these coats, Zong Shen also made other discoveries.

For example, a green material [pine tar block] is also an indispensable material to keep out the cold and can be used as fuel.

A fist-sized piece of pine oil can burn for 12 hours. It is a high-quality plant fuel. It comes from the pine oil secreted by ice cedar. Its burning efficiency is far better than that of ordinary wood.

However, as a green material, the price is not cheap. Several of the lords use mainland general dinars for sale, and the prices are all 12 to 15 mainland general dinars. This price is not cheap, among the aborigines I was able to buy several kilograms of good quality dried meat.

After all, a prairie cow only costs 300 mainland dinars.

However, Zong Shen was wealthy, so he didn't need to worry about this. He bought a total of 50 [Pine Tar Blocks]. Due to individual price differences, he spent a total of 675 mainland general dinars.

Then, he purchased some blankets and quilts, and spent some resources and dinars.

Now, there are many more kinds of items in the entire [market], and there are even people selling special foods from their respective regions. It has completely become a trading meeting for local specialties.

Zong Shen even saw someone listing a piece of underwear for sale, labeled [Rodok Dancer's Original Underwear]. The price was not cheap, and he asked for 500 basic resources in exchange. Zong Shen was immediately confused. He seemed to Saw the new wealth code.

Subconsciously, I thought of Luna, Tasia, Aysia, and the Ranger sisters...

[Night Huntress Original Flavor], [Necromancer Original Flavor], [Priest of Light Original Flavor], [Dragonborn Ranger Original Flavor]...

Doesn't this thing have more cards than some Rhodok dancers?

Zong Shen shook his head and got rid of these messy thoughts from his mind.

I continued to search in [Market]. I haven’t paid attention to [Market] for a long time. It’s quite interesting to look at it today.

…

Just when Zong Shen was purchasing supplies in the [market].

In Odo Village, Raven Saint Safuri led the team back to the village.

This time she went out and caught a dozen aboriginal merchants. Although she found some lords along the way, those guys were all hiding in the territory. Relying on the defensive buildings, Safuri didn't take action because she felt it was troublesome.

As soon as she returned to the territory, the deacon named David took the initiative to greet her, came to Safuri's side, and asked for instructions in a low voice.

"Sir, I have found another suitable candidate for the raven puppet."

"There is no trace of faith on his body. He is much purer than those villagers and professional soldiers."

"In this way, we will have five or six people suitable to be made into raven puppets."

"These people seem to have a lot in common with the mysterious forces that attacked us before."

After hearing his report, Safuri's eyes lit up and she turned her head to look at David.

"Very good, five or six raven puppets are enough to increase our strength quite a bit."

"Now take them to the center of the village, and I will prepare the Raven's Blood Pool now."

"These people must be related to those mysterious forces. Don't alert others."

"I will ask Elder Theodore to assist you."

Safuri also said in a low voice that the raven puppet is a puppet created by the Calamity Raven Church through a certain ritual, and it needs people with weak traces of faith as raw materials.

Compared with the aborigines, the lords are undoubtedly the best candidates, because the lords do not belong to this world, and they are even less likely to bear traces of the beliefs of this world.

After receiving the affirmation from Saint Safuri, Deacon David nodded and walked quickly to the edge of the village.

At this time, Wang Xuan was laying landmines honestly, peeking around with the corner of his eye from time to time.

He was very interested in the warriors of the Calamity Raven Church, especially the heretical giant knights riding heavy packhorses, which made him even more greedy.

Imagine that if you can have a team of heretical giant knights, wouldn't the entire area go sideways?

While Wang Xuan was having a sweet dream, David came here with a church elder and a team of jackdaw and euphorbia warriors, walked through the minefield, and patted him gently on the back.

Wang Xuan was startled and turned around to find that it was the church deacon whom he had deceived before. A flattering smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Is there something wrong, Mr. Deacon?"

David looked at his fawning look and sneered in his heart.

"Our saint has returned."

"I just asked her for permission, and she promised to convert you."

"Now please come with me. After completing the ceremony of converting to the Raven God, you will officially become a member of the church."

David had a smile on his face, like a kind-hearted missionary.

Hearing his words, Wang Xuan was overjoyed!

As long as you join the Calamity Raven Church and become one of their members, you may have the opportunity to have these powerful soldiers in the church in the future.

"Thank you, Mr. Deacon!"

"I will definitely do my best for the church, even giving my life!"

Wang Xuan said impassionedly that some of his ideas had not changed.

Although the lords have certain "player" characteristics, these aborigines are not NPCs.

"Haha, okay, I can feel your piety."

"Come with me. After completing the conversion ceremony, you can truly serve the church."

David urged, and with a wave of his hand, the jackdaw and halberd warriors behind him helped Wang Xuan up.

Wang Xuan didn't doubt his presence, so he obediently let the jackdaw and halberd warrior pick him up, and followed David into the village.

In the square in the center of the village, the [Raven Tower] here has been basically completed, and there is still some finishing work left. The church disaster mages are carving the final inscriptions with the blood of raven.

Beside the tower, Raven Saint Safuri got five large wooden basins from nowhere.

She would reach out with her left hand, and one of the circling ravens in the sky would land on her palm.

She held a dagger in her right hand, slit the raven's neck on her left palm, and put all its blood into the barrel. Her expression was very calm, and it was obvious that this was not the first time she had done such a thing.

Each large wooden basin required blood bleeding from hundreds of ravens to fill it up. Her bloodletting was very efficient, and soon a pile of raven corpses piled up next to her.

The smell of blood and the unique fishy smell of poultry assaulted my nostrils.

Raven's blood is an important material for many rituals performed by the Calamity Raven Church.

Including the construction of the Raven Tower and the production of the Raven Puppet currently being prepared.

All require a lot of raven blood!
