Chapter 611: Everything is ready, leaving the poisonous swamp

After finishing the combination of Blood Wolf Gugat and Feihu to destroy the little Balrog, Zong Shen felt a little relieved.

He has always pursued a strategy of grasping with both hands and using both hands hard.

To put it simply, he wants it all!

Little Balrog is about whether the heat wave challenge can come to a successful conclusion.

The black dragon and poisonous mist swamp are related to the improvement of territory's wealth and combat power.

Taking over unclaimed territory can quickly obtain a group of people, heroes, middle and low-level soldiers, and defensive arrow towers.

He didn't want to miss out on any of these benefits.

After Zong Shen used [Dragon Flute (Special)] to scare the little black dragon again.

The guy's loyalty finally increased to over 60 points, which was barely stable.

At least for the next few days, I will definitely be willing to be his ride on the road.

After the little black dragon took off, it began to swim in the air according to Zong Shen's instructions.

They followed the positions of the smoke pillars to search.

Favid's trace was quickly discovered.

I saw Favid grabbing the [Soul Extraction Bottle (Purple)] and extracting the souls of the corpses one by one.

After the extraction is completed, the lion charge knights and wolf cavalry following behind will drag away the human corpses and pile them together.

The horses and wargs were piled in another place.

Howie rushed over at some point and was using the storage space provided by [Hiking Merchant's Emblem (Purple)] to collect the carcasses of prairie horses and wild beasts.

This saves the trouble of summoning Howie again.

Originally, Zong Shen was planning to call Howi.

It seems that after training in logistics and internal affairs, the territory's response has become more efficient and proactive.

Zong Shen doesn't need to be there in person like his biological father.

The fur and flesh of horses and beasts can be recycled.

The territory currently does not have a stable way to produce food.

Large-scale farming plans are still in the works.

The cultivation of sweet potato vines and the preparation of agricultural techniques are not yet complete.

After the carcasses of these beasts and horses are recovered, they can be used as a supplement to the meat diet.

There are not many of their corpses around the entire poisonous swamp.

Zong Shen rode on Xiao Heizi's back and nodded with satisfaction.

Just as he was about to let it land, the communication crystal on his chest suddenly lit up and vibrated to indicate it.

He lowered his head and took off the crystal, and found that it was Jiang Yi who initiated the communication request.

"hiss…"

"Why did you forget Jiang Yi?"

Zong Shen patted his forehead.

The joy of taming the money-hungry handsome boy and looting the dragon's nest made him ignore Jiang Yi.

The two of them had agreed to explore the Poison Swamp together before.

How should we deal with this matter now?

He held the communication crystal and felt the vibration of the crystal, but there was no connection for a moment.

After frowning, he chose to answer the call.

"Master Zong, the silver banner just now is because you tamed the black dragon, right?"

"So about the exploration of the poisonous swamp..."

As soon as the communication was connected, Jiang Yi asked straight to the point.

Sure enough, Jiang Yi did come here for Poison Marsh.

But the dragon's nest has been almost completely destroyed by himself.

Even the treasure chest in the dragon's lair.

Now there are only a dozen treasure chests scattered in the poisonous swamp.

"Uh, that's right."

"I have finished raiding the dragon's nest."

"I will come to your territory later to distribute the spoils."

"As for the distribution ratio..."

Zong Shen thought about it and decided to give a small part of the harvest as a reward.

Contains a dinar and some treasure chests below Silver level.

After all, the other party is the deputy commander of the [Guide Legion] and also his legion agent.

Of course, Zong Shen was not worried about her using the legion to restrain him.

All those who join the [Legion of Guides] come here for Zong Shen’s reputation.

I also came here for those breakthrough behaviors and golden banners.

As long as there is a legion with Zong Shen, it is the true [Guide].

He is the soul of the [Legion of Guides].

Therefore Zong Shen was not worried at all.

The reason why he decisively decided to share the profits and harvests naturally had his own ideas.

Although Jiang Yi didn't contribute much during this trip to Poison Swamp, he basically took care of the little black dragon in one go.

But at least there was an agreement in advance, and Jiang Yi reported it in time both before and this time, so he should share part of the harvest as a reward.

He agreed quite happily, but was interrupted by Jiang Yi before he finished speaking.

"Sir...since you have finished searching, let's give up the previous exploration agreement..."

When Zong Shen was about to cut the meat and make a profit, Jiang Yi took the initiative to take a step back.

"No, you are now the deputy commander and my agent."

"It will also be good for the legion's development if you become stronger."

"I will allocate it myself when the time comes."

"But I may not have time until tomorrow afternoon."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Yi was silent for a while on the other end of the communication crystal.

"Okay, thank you!"

"Then goodbye!"

Zong Shen shook his head, smiled, and replied loudly

"Goodbye!"

"While the challenge is not over yet, it is important to kill more little Balrogs."

"Okay, I have something else to do, so I won't talk about it for now."

After saying that, he hung up the communication crystal and let Xiao Heizi land downwards.

As a handsome and money-grubbing lord.

It is not completely impossible for Zong Shen to cut off his flesh.

Take Jiang Yi for example. His choice is to give favors, but the premise is that he must become a handsome boy on a pirate ship.

As his little follower, becoming stronger and richer is still equivalent to indirectly improving his own strength.

Secondly, Zong Shen's net worth has increased extremely rapidly.

Things that were of little use to him were still of great use to a lord like Jiang Yi.

This includes dinars as well.

Although he has several million dinars, other lords are considered to be doing well among the lords as long as they can become a householder worth ten thousand yuan.

As long as a few scraps slip through his fingers, it will be enough for Jiang Yi to digest it easily.

When Zong Shen rode the handsome boy down, everyone below saw the black shadow falling from the sky.

They had all witnessed Zong Shen taming the handsome boy with their own eyes, so naturally they would not be as panicked as Fei Hu.

Xiao Heizi landed calmly on the ground, looked at everyone with indifferent vertical pupils, and finally turned his head indifferently. The inspection of the superior creature was so cold.

Zong Shen jumped off the saddle and landed on the trampled grass.

The smell of blood around him was strong, and even though it had been a while since he left the Shura Field, the smell of blood still didn't dissipate, making him sniff and raise his brows.

Favid and Howie both took the initiative to greet them.

As heroic talents in the territory, they were all assigned different tasks by Zong Shen.

Now that the lord is here in person, he should come forward in time to salute and report on the progress of the task.

Everyone caressed their chests with one hand, signaling to Zong Shen with the chest caressing ceremony.

Zong Shen looked around, raised his hand slightly, and the surrounding soldiers stood up straight and continued to carry the corpses.

Farvid and Howie in front of him also raised their heads.

"Sir, more than 60% of the work of soul extraction from the corpses outside the Poison Swamp has been completed."

"I have selected a team of wolf cavalry from the temporary combat team summoned here, and they will conduct location calibration. It is estimated that it will take more than an hour to complete the soul extraction mission."

"Here are the souls exchanged according to your request."

Favid took out 27 [Complete Purple Souls] and 5 [Complete Orange Souls]

This is what Zong Shen told him before, asking him to exchange for 1 orange soul for every 5 purple souls.

Although he had a rough estimate of the number of corpses here.

But only now did he realize that he had underestimated it after all.

According to the corresponding levels of soldiers.

The first-level warrior is equivalent to the ordinary level and can provide 1 point of extraction value.

The second-level warrior is equivalent to the elite level and can provide 5 points of extraction value.

The third-level warrior is equivalent to the captain level and can provide 25 points of extraction value.

The fourth-level warrior is equivalent to the commander level and can provide 125 extraction points.

As for how much soul extraction value the corpses of those lords can provide, Zong Shen does not yet know.

This is probably related to the strength of each lord, which should be between the second and third levels.

The souls redeemed by Favid alone are worth 32,500 extraction points, not counting the remaining extraction value of the extraction bottle that has not yet been redeemed.

"Good guy, the value of these complete souls alone is not a small amount!"

"If you exchange them all, you will get at least ten orange souls and fifty or sixty purple souls!"

Zong Shen reached out and collected all the souls.

The silver banner just before also rewarded a [Complete Orange Soul].

Once you have enough souls, you won't have to worry about advancing warrior qualifications or building barracks that require soul foundation.

In addition, the [Special Knowledge School (Gold)] in the territory also needs to consume souls to awaken the special tutor.

A special professional title is one level higher than a senior one.

Able to cultivate junior to senior professional talents.

There are a total of three hundred souls of special instructors in the school.

Every time a [Complete Purple Soul] is consumed, a tutor can be awakened for 60 days, existing for up to 18 hours a day, and can attend classes crazily without eating or drinking.

Now that we have this group of souls, the subsequent talent training plan can be successfully completed.

Many of the twenty farmers with rare qualifications that Zong Shen exchanged for were on standby.

His previous planning and layout has finally come to the point where he can close the network one after another.

"You guys did a great job."

"Now we'll finish cleaning up the bodies outside the Poison Swamp."

"Then you and Howie go to the poisonous swamp."

"There are still many corpses in the open space outside the dragon's nest."

"Among these corpses, the human ones should be extracted and burned."

"Take away all the beasts and monsters, keep the bones and flesh, and put them into the shadow pool for transformation."

"Howie, you have to pay attention to the capacity of the storage space inside the badge."

"If necessary, you can return to the territory first."

Zong Shen conveyed the arranged plan without further hesitation.

The sky is starting to turn slightly yellow now.

The sun is no longer blazing and has become much softer.

"Yes, sir!"

The two immediately accepted the order, nodded and bowed without any hesitation.

Zong Shen waved his hand, and the two of them immediately dispersed and continued their busy work.

After dealing with Favid's affairs, Zong Shen rode Xiao Heizi again.

Only now did he truly understand why goblins regard "time is money" as their maxim. Time is indeed linked to wealth!

"Let's go, little Heizi, go back to the Poison Mist Swamp. Big brother will help you find the treasure chest!"

Zong Shen pulled the reins and shouted.

The little black dragon snorted, said nothing, and honestly spread its wings and flew into the sky.

According to the golden circle navigation of the strategy module, plus the cooperation of the little black dragon.

After spending less than half an hour, Zong Shen successfully found all the treasure chests scattered throughout the Poison Swamp.

There are eleven treasure chests in total, two of which are trap chests.

One silver and one bronze respectively.

Among the remaining nine treasure chests, there are one gold treasure chest, three silver treasure chests, three bronze treasure chests, and two black iron treasure chests.

So far, including those treasure chests found in the dragon's lair.

Zong Shen received a total of three gold treasure chests, six silver treasure chests, five bronze treasure chests, and six black iron treasure chests. These treasure chests did not include trap treasure chests. They were comparable to the rewards of exploring a large ruins.

At present, only the Poison Swamp Ruins and the Dragon's Nest are two geographical elements that can make so many treasure chests appear. When the Little Balrog challenge is over, you can exchange it for a platinum key, and your life will be complete.

He can definitely unbox it and enjoy it.

After taking care of the treasure chest in the Poison Swamp, the sky outside has turned from yellow to gray.

Zong Shen also breathed a sigh of relief.

Let the little black man fly to the territory.

There are hundreds of temporary teams guarding the Poison Mist Swamp.

Plus the remaining retinue, the remaining power of the black dragon, and the poisonous mist.

There should be no lords in the past.

For the lords, there is only one life, and failure cannot be reversed.

Death is ruthless when it comes.

Therefore, the development of the ruins can be put on hold for a few days.

After all, excavating ruins is not that easy.

Even if other lords did take risks and entered the poisonous swamp during this period.

And it bypassed the dependents inside and resisted the invasion of the poisonous mist.

It is not that easy to dig out the ruins.

Not everyone has idle points and redeemed the [Magic Drilling Machine] during the winter.

In summary, Zong Shen decided to postpone the development of the Poison Swamp Ruins.

Right now, all he has to do is take over the unclaimed territory.

More than ten minutes later, the handsome black boy flew over the territory.

It was already past six o'clock in the evening.

The silver moon in the sky is shining, as if it is taking over with the sun.

Zong Shen rode on Xiao Heizi's back, and the silver moonlight fell, giving the dark dragon scales a layer of luster.

Looking down at his territory from the air, he found that the territory had grown in size, covering several kilometers in radius.

The most eye-catching things in the territory are the several epic buildings and the defense matrices scattered in all directions.

Next are the double-story stone houses and workshop buildings in the living and industrial areas.

The stone roads of several main roads have been completed. They are like arteries, connecting the four major areas and the central area.

In order to ensure the flatness of the construction area, Mariel and Howie led other internal affairs heroes to use the flag survey method to conduct simple surveying and mapping, and at the same time, they also filled in and consolidated the uneven terrain.

From the very beginning of its construction, it was all about urban planning.

Compared to the chaotically planned territories of other lords, Zong Shen's territory was much more orderly.

Under the moonlight, his territory is like a pearl embedded in the earth.

Looking at the territory below, Zong Shen felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

"—This is my territory!"

"Little Heizi, fall towards there."

Zong Shen pointed to the lord's fortress in the middle of the territory.

Today's seventh-level lord's fortress has a height of twenty to thirty meters including the foundation and floor height.

It is quite conspicuous from the air.

Zong Shen came in person, but neither the defensive arrow towers nor the parading [Sword of the Dome] had any reaction, and they still kept operating in their original state.

As Xiao Heizi gradually landed, Zong Shen saw the Nature Druid Salome Linyu squatting on the ground and doing something busy in the courtyard of the fortress.

Beside him, Erya and Xiaoping were also waiting with buckets.

Xiao Heizi's body shape is similar to that of Eagle Sauce, and both are at the Airbus level.

Today there is enough open space in the courtyard of the Lord's Fortress.

Zong Shen let Xiao Heizi land directly.

When he entered the territory, Xiao Heizi swept away his previous listlessness and looked at the entire lord's fortress and the surrounding tall epic-level buildings and [Thunderland Wonders] with curious eyes. From time to time, he raised his head to glance at the huge [ Sword of the Dome].

Among them, the [Thunderland Wonder] gave it an extremely dangerous feeling.

This time, Zong Shen's status in its heart was once again improved.

[Due to a perceived threat in your territory]

[Black Dragon Xiao Heizi's loyalty to you increases by 5 points, and the current loyalty point is 66 points]

"..."

"Isn't this guy a jerk?"

"After learning that I could torture it, my loyalty grew more and more..."

Zong Shen glanced at the loyalty change prompt and couldn't help but curse in his heart.

Their appearance also attracted the attention of Salome Linyu and other farmers.

The latter immediately stood up and came forward with excitement on his face.

Zong Shen also jumped off Xiao Heizi's back and walked towards Salome Lin Yu.

The two walked a few steps before meeting each other.

Salome Lin Yu quickly bowed and saluted, then ignored Zong Shen's instructions and stood up straight, pointing to the open space by the wall not far behind her.

"Sir, the first batch of sweet potato vines have been successfully cultivated!"

Hearing what he said, Zong Shen was also shocked.

The sweet potato business is an important part of the farming plan, and its progress is crucial!

"So fast?"

Zong Shen asked subconsciously.

"In order to increase the speed of cultivation, I used some Lunar Spring with the permission of Lord Mariel."

“In addition, a piece of high-grade fertile land was specially built here.”

"Both of these factors greatly increase the growth rate of sweet potato vines."

"Of course, some natural magic is also indispensable."

Salome Linyu introduced excitedly.

At the same time, he took Zong Shen to the "Sweet Potato No. 1 Experimental Field".

Here, a planting field of dozens of square meters has been opened up in the open space in the courtyard.

Sweet potato seedlings are planted neatly in four horizontal rows in the field!
