Chapter 514: Treasure chest for equipment, the last passage

After all, the treasure chest does not seem to be indestructible to the lords.

Zong Shen has not done any specific experiments.

To be precise, he did not conduct experiments on unopened treasure chests.

What he knows most about is the treasure chest after opening it.

Based on his many box-opening experiences, once the treasure box is opened, it will turn into an ordinary box of the corresponding material, and there will be nothing special about it.

Whether it is black iron or bronze, silver or gold.

Once the treasure chests at these levels are opened, the remaining empty chests can be easily melted into materials.

The material represented by the gold treasure chest is fine gold, which can be regarded as a precious metal mineral.

But in the unopened state, he was really not sure.

It would be very embarrassing if he opened the treasure chest with brute force.

But Baron Bezos specifically called him to take action.

It's not easy for him to shirk the blame.

He walked to the front and picked up a legendary knight's sword from the open space where the trophies were piled.

The length of this battle sword is about one and a half meters.

The width is inferior to that of the exaggerated Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword, but it can still be considered a great sword.

At least it is much wider than the one-handed long sword used by the fourth-level strong swordsman.

This is understandable, after all, those lion skeleton knights, even after losing their flesh and blood, still look tall, and their bones are incredibly thick.

You can imagine how tall they would have been when their bones were full.

This long sword has a mountain-shaped hilt.

In this way, the hilt can block long-handled weapons and gain a certain advantage in duels.

The hilt of the sword is thick and requires Zong Shen's hands to handle it.

There is a golden lion's head at the end.

Even after years, it still looks smooth and clean.

There are obvious casting lines in the middle of the sword body, and there is also the emblem of a lion's front paws stepping on a boulder and roaring.

This emblem represents the Knights of the Lion.

I have to mention it here, even though they are called the Knights of the Lion.

However, neither the past nor the current undead skeleton knights ride lions.

These Lion Knights still ride exotic war horses.

Able to wear plate armor and carry out high-speed charging and combat.

When Zong Shen observed their attributes before, he also checked the strength of the war horses.

They are all rare-level skeleton horses.

From this we can also see the strength of some war horses during their lifetime.

Zong Shen was seen holding the war sword tightly with both hands, and his eyes quickly glanced around.

[Golden Lion Riding War Sword (Orange)]

[One-handed and two-handed]

[Quality: Legendary]

[Chopping damage: 82~85]

[Attack range: 150]

[Attack speed: -8%]

[Durability: 621]

[Strength required: 55]

[Skill: Lion Slash lv30 (emits three slashing arcs with a length of two meters, capable of sweeping a distance of 10 meters, causing 1.3 times of slashing damage to targets along the way, cooling time is 2 hours)

Lion Fighting Level 30 (When dismounted and fighting on foot, you will enter the Lion Fighting state, with concentration increased by 25%, slashing damage increased by 20%, and armor increased by 25 points)]

(One of the standard equipment of the sixth-level Golden Lion Knight, the signature golden sword once traveled across the continent)

The attributes of this knight's battle sword are pretty good, better than the dragon-slaying heavy sword before it was repaired.

But it was still a step ahead of the repaired Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword.

The general attributes are quite satisfactory among legendary weapons.

Zong Shen grabbed the war sword and went straight to the treasure chest.

He turned his head and looked at Baron Bezos.

After Baron Bezos nodded, he decisively took out the sword in his hand.

"Clang!"

Combining the war sword with Zong Shen's power, it can do at least three to four hundred points of damage.

It's a pity that the treasure chest didn't leave any trace.

At the same time, from his perspective, a number appeared on the treasure chest.

【45】

"What does it mean?"

"Can it be destroyed directly by attacking five more times?"

Zong Shen was puzzled, but he did not make any further cuts.

Obviously this is a measure against the lords.

After five consecutive attacks, the treasure chest will be damaged.

This measure is to prevent the lord from using the treasure chest as a shield.

Although no one has the luxury to use treasure chests as shields at the moment.

This initiative is certainly a treasure chest of sorts.

But in fact, treasure chests still have wonderful uses.

It can be used to fend off attacks from non-natives.

Other lords don't have such luxury, someone from his sect can do it.

This can be considered a small loophole.

Zong Shen decided to collect some black iron treasure chests if he had a chance.

Make these black iron treasure chests into a special shield car.

It will come in handy when there is a war with the indigenous people in the future.

As long as the lord system does not change the settings of the treasure chest, it can really play some unexpected roles.

I have to say that this idea still has some feasibility.

Other lords may regard the chest as a rare treasure.

But someone from his clan had already opened the box until he vomited.

Especially the black iron treasure chest, which is of almost no use to him.

After all, the black iron treasure chest can only produce sophisticated items at best.

Now his vision and family wealth are different, and only silver and gold can still be seen.

After he finished chopping, he took two steps back.

While thinking about how to use the properties of the treasure box, he acted like he was powerless.

"What kind of treasure chest is this?"

"It doesn't look like anyone can break it?"

"Does it require some magic token to open it?"

Baron Bezos saw with his own eyes that the sword struck by Zong Shen had no effect.

Finally gave up the means of violent destruction.

Just now he had asked the Master Zong Shen to take action.

Neither magic bullets nor magic arrows can cause effective damage.

Baron Bezos has been fooled.

It is definitely a rare treasure that can achieve such an effect.

Or it is a high-level magic storage box, which can be immune to most low-level attacks.

Or some strange ancient item.

No matter which one it is, it proves that this thing has a terrifying background.

Baron Bezos was also interested in this.

Zong Shen stood aside and stuck the knight's sword on the ground.

His eyes stared at the treasure chest.

【Golden Treasure Chest】

[An unknown gold treasure chest, no one knows what can be found]

(Yes, this treasure chest is a trap. As soon as the fourth-level turbid wave is opened, a turbid wave almost one story high will rush out and fill the entire ruins crypt instantly)

Good guy, it’s still a trap treasure chest!

But this is also reasonable, because the gold he got in the ruins before was normal.

It seems that Baron Bezos is very interested in this invulnerable treasure chest.

To be honest, if Zong Shen knew the origin of the treasure chest.

Just by looking at the external characteristics of the treasure chest, he would think it was a treasure.

Think about it, something invulnerable, resistant to magic, and looking gleaming, blinn blinn.

The golden treasure chest in front of him perfectly meets all the above requirements for Baron Bezos.

Secondly, just because the boxes are so impressive, the contents inside the boxes are absolutely unimaginable.

At this time Baron Bezos seemed to have made some kind of decision.

He turned around and looked at Zong Shen, but he hesitated to speak.

At this time, Zong Shen couldn't help but grin.

His expression was perfectly concealed under the helmet.

"What does Mr. Bezos want to say?"

"Might as well just say it."

"This is yours and mine, and there are no outsiders."

Zong Shen raised the corners of his mouth and said proactively.

Hearing him ask this, Baron Bezos's expression became much firmer.

"Brother Zong, can you give me this strange treasure box?"

"I want to take it to the giant city to study it."

"It has very magical properties..."

"I think……"

Baron Bezos said slowly, his tone still somewhat uneasy.

"oh?"

"I'm also very interested in this treasure chest."

Zong Shen said calmly.

Hearing what he said, Baron Bezos was confused.

Just by looking at the appearance, anyone who is not a fool would know that this golden treasure chest must be very precious.

It cannot be opened temporarily, which makes Baron Bezos even more imaginative.

In the past few minutes, he had figured out a lot of things on his own.

These ideas are so amazing that they even go beyond normal thinking.

As a result, the value of this golden treasure chest rose to an exaggerated level in his mind.

He lowered his head and said nothing, struggling internally.

After two or three minutes of silence, he raised his head.

"That's it, brother Zong Shen."

"You give me the right to distribute the gold treasure chest."

"I am willing to give up 10% of the distribution ratio of this batch of ancient equipment!"

Baron Bezos said reluctantly that he understood the value of this batch of equipment.

The total harvest now reaches hundreds.

Giving up 10% of the distribution ratio means that Zong Shen monopolizes 60%.

On the spot, Zong Shen understood that this was Baron Bezos starting to negotiate the price.

If they talk about it openly, then Zong Shen doesn't mind trying to gain more benefits for himself.

The total population of the territory now reaches more than one thousand.

A large number of double-story stone houses were built.

The current size of the territory is no less than that of Dinan Village.

When large pastures are established, the population will leap forward.

In addition, neighboring cities are also Zong Shen's key targets.

The batch of refugees sent by Bosbon had been screened by Mariel and Howie.

According to the ratio of the number of people, there should be one or even three or four heroic talents among them.

After the territory's population expands, hero-level talents must also be expanded.

Not only is it a matter of command value, the management of all levels must also be kept up in an orderly manner.

The next stage is when the population exceeds 10,000.

A population of thousands is already unique among the current lords.

The current will is that Chen Rui has reached this level.

Of course, Zong Shen once saw on the channel that someone became the Marquis's son-in-law.

A state city was obtained as a fiefdom within its jurisdiction.

There is currently no way to study this matter, at least from the territory level rankings and previous banner announcements.

This world is full of wonders, and it really cannot be said too absolutely.

Anyway, reaching this population base is already considered very impressive.

When you enter the no-challenge month, you can develop freely.

By the way, the population reform was also carried out.

While the number of citizens is still under control, the reform framework will be implemented.

With one or two million dinars in hand, it was enough to establish a preliminary system.

At that time, soldiers will be paid according to their ranks.

As for farmers, we provide basic production resources and land and let them open up wasteland.

Let the resources after land reclamation return to the market, or acquire them by himself.

When a large number of traveling merchants settle in, the economy will be completely revitalized.

Before that, he had to pay out of his own pocket to form an initial internal economic cycle.

This decision will harm the interests of the territory in the short term, but it is indeed necessary from a long-term perspective.

Anyway, power is always authoritarian, and it is guaranteed by loyalty.

In essence, this wealth will basically not be lost in large quantities.

It will only form a cycle within the territory and eventually absorb external resources.

At the same time, it can also greatly stimulate the subjectivity of the citizens.

They are not like puppets on strings, requiring relevant commands for each action.

Zong Shen lowered his head and thought, and unconsciously thought too far.

"Brother Zong?"

Baron Bezos asked tentatively.

Only then did Zong Shen come back to his senses.

"Let's do this, Lord Bezos."

"I want to take 65% of those relic equipment."

"The rest is yours, and this treasure chest is also yours."

He said concisely and concisely, this matter is only suitable for such a simple and straightforward statement.

Otherwise, if you talk too much, you will appear greedy.

When you open the skylight and talk about lighting, distribute it how you want.

Baron Bezos frowned slightly when he heard this distribution ratio.

He looked at the gold treasure chest and seemed to be weighing it.

Maybe it's because the expectations in my heart are too high.

He finally agreed to Zong Shen's request.

"Brother Zong, I promise you."

"Then this golden box belongs to me?"

Baron Bezos nodded in agreement, and finally sent an inquiry to Zong Shen.

After Zong Shen nodded in agreement, he used his own storage tools to put the treasure box away.

Both parties reached a verbal agreement, and the matter regarding the distribution of items came to an end.

It's almost five o'clock in the afternoon.

There is one passage left that has yet to be explored.

Compared with the morning, Baron Bezos became much calmer after getting the golden treasure chest.

He no longer acted anxious and unbearable, and regained some of his calm temperament.

There is a skeleton knight in this only remaining passage, and Zong Shen is well aware of this.

"Then prepare to explore this passage now."

"Brother Zong, what do you think?"

Baron Bezos looked at Zong Shen, suggesting that it was time for him to take action.

In response, Zong Shen just nodded and turned to Vereesa and Caniggia behind him.

"Vereesa, Caniggia, you are responsible for cooperating in the investigation."

"Report immediately if there is any situation."

After receiving his instructions, Vereesa turned the [Hiphawk War Bow] she was carrying behind her back to her front.

He came to Zong Shen and saluted.

Caniggia was even more fancy. He raised his wand and performed an aristocratic ceremony.

"As you wish."

"The wind will carry your will and blow in this dark underground."

"Be sure to pay attention to safety."

"Just hearing a clicking sound is proof of the presence of the undead."

Zong Shen ignored Caniggia's fancy words and actions, and just warned him seriously.

Both Vereesa and Caniggia have good speed and reflexes.

Having them scouted is a good option.

Anyway, facing the charge of the Golden Lion Skeleton Knight, even Sergeant Rodok couldn't stop it.

As for Zong Shen, it was not suitable to explore the passage again.

If he explores the passage twice in a row, undead will appear.

Then it is not ruled out that Baron Bezos will become suspicious.

There are only so many concerns about sending men in.

Baron Bezos also named four strong fencers.

He also understands a truth now.

That is, when exploring the passage, it makes no difference whether to send a small team or several people.

Anyway, they couldn't resist the Skeleton Knight's charge.

It's better to send a few fewer people so that they can escape more quickly.

Under this principle, the new exploration team was formed.

Zong Shen handed the [Magic Flashlight] into Caniggia's hands.

Vereesa and Caniggia took the lead, followed by four strong swordsmen, entering the passage.

This passage is also very wide, almost the same as the previous one.

The probability of a skeleton knight existing in a passage like this is very high.

All the laborers stood around the remains of the cabin.

This is the blind spot for charging.

Baron Bezos took out the cross and got ready.

The atmosphere was a bit tense.

After two days of continuous excavation, the ruins here have undergone earth-shaking changes compared to the initial ones.

Not only was it widened to see a lot, but it also left a lot of traces of activity.

Workers and soldiers are all human beings, and they all need to solve three urgent problems.

Naturally, everyone settled within the ruins.

It's just that they are all in the corners that have been explored in such ruins.

Now, he Zong is the calmest person on the scene anyway.

However, he also raised the [Aurora Guardian Shield] and made a decent gesture of resistance.

After about five or six minutes passed, the light and shadow in the passage changed, and the sound of rapid footsteps was heard.

"coming!"

"Be careful to avoid!"

The two men and the four powerful swordsmen ran out of the passage almost one after the other.

I immediately found several locations on the ruins around the passage.

Not only is this the commanding heights, but it can also avoid the damage of a direct charge.

Zong Shen and Baron Bezos also took certain evasions.

At least you can't stand in the open and still have the Skeleton Knight charge.

As long as charge damage is avoided, it means that the biggest risk factor is eliminated.

Although the attack of the knight's sword is also very sharp, at least it will not have fatal consequences like charging the lance.

After everyone left the passage, about half a minute passed, and "ta da" came from far to near.

The sound echoed in the cave ruins, very neat and crisp.

It seems that there are more skeleton knights appearing this time than in the previous passage.

There were six skeleton knights running out of the previous passage, and this time there were at least a dozen.

Zong Shen was very happy about this. No matter how many skeleton knights he had, he always had the attitude that the more the better.

Because the skeleton knights will become his combat power.

As long as the [Silver Lion Ring] is there, it can be easily tamed.

In contrast, Baron Bezos appears very cautious.
