Chapter 734: Analyze intelligence through [Channel]
All I can say is that my younger brother is too old to stay.
Aze was three years younger than him, and in Zong Shen's memory, his brother had been very close to him since he was a child.
Of course, siblings will inevitably have quarrels and even fights when they were young.
But once an outsider wants to bully them, both Zong Ze and Zong Shen will take the initiative to protect each other. This is blood and family ties.
All this is normal. As time goes by, Zongze will have his own goals and career just like him.
Men will eventually have their own careers, everyone will.
If Zong Shen wants to dominate the mainland in the future, he will try his best to win Aze's support.
However, men will always breed ambition and desire. Zong Shen believes that as long as he maintains the lead in strength, Aze should be able to make the most appropriate choice when the moment comes.
He had also considered these more serious matters.
Because his principle is: consider every consequence first, and then decide on the next action.
No matter how beautiful things appear, Zong Shen will always think about the worst consequences first, so as not to be at a loss.
He also has the same attitude towards his younger brother.
Judging from his brother's character and intelligence he has shown since childhood, Aze must have some concerns in his heart.
These are not things that Zong Shen needs to consider further.
After all, the Rhodok Kingdom where Aze lives is thousands of miles away from the Avalon Kingdom where he lives.
Perhaps in the next one or two years, the two brothers will not be able to meet each other, let alone have conflicting interests in development.
What Zong Shen has to do is still firmly follow his own path and continuously enhance his own strength.
As long as you are strong enough, you can make everything become what you want.
This idea is not only the ambition of the overlord, but also the eternal truth in the world.
The strong make the rules, the weak follow the rules, and finally a new balance is reached.
Zong Shen's lips curled up slightly, and after waiting for a few minutes, he simply opened the [World Channel] and browsed.
As a channel where lords from all over the world can communicate together, it is still so lively here.
However, due to the shackles of the number of speeches, this place has completely turned into a serious "advertising channel."
Each message reached the upper limit of the number of words that could be spoken, and there were many flashy advertisements in it, trying to increase the exposure in a short period of time, which left Zong Shen speechless.
He has never advertised on [World Channel], and he has never worried about items not being sold.
The only "marketing" behavior he has done in [Market] transactions is probably that after taking over unclaimed territory several times and acquiring a large number of redundant [Market] buildings of all levels, he would ask Mariel and Howie to When dealing with listings, put the three words "Guide" as a label description.
Since the items he sells are relatively fixed, after a period of deliberation, [Guide] has also become a golden sign. Basically, the lords who sell similar items like him in the [Market] are also marked with the three words [Guide]. This is true for labels including various mineral materials.
Unfortunately, there is no trademark law and brand protection in this world, and the Lord system does not have such a function. Otherwise, [Guide] would definitely be the most famous fixed label sign in [Market] transactions.
In addition, there is another special product that is out of print and that is [Moon God Spring].
So far, [Moon God Spring] in the [Market] is still sold exclusively. No one can copy [Moon God Spring]. After all, its birth has a certain degree of coincidence.
But later Zong Shen reduced the number of [Moon God Spring] for sale every day and hoarded them for his own use.
This resulted in a lot of guys reselling [Moon God Spring] in the [Market].
Zong Shen ignored this. The profit from reselling was huge, but the sales volume was destined to be limited. After all, the only [Moon God Spring] was in his own hands.
In addition, once the price is too high, there is no need to purchase [Moon Spring]. Other substitute potions can also achieve similar effects by combining them, and they can be much cheaper.
Therefore, Zong Shen has long formed his own [market] trading system.
He doesn't need to advertise for promotion. His daily transaction volume is enough to make any lord jealous.
Even after the mines were shut down and defenses tightened in the past few days, the sales in the [market] did not stop.
The accumulated ore resources are enough for him to sell for several days.
Through [market] transactions, he realized the exchange and transformation of resources, and successfully maintained the consumption of territorial defense construction. The three city wall circles were the best front.
Although the perimeter of the three city walls is still not comparable to that of a giant city or even a fortress-type city, it is definitely considered a groundbreaking extravagance among the lords.
Zong Shen flipped through the [World Channel] and lost interest.
Due to the semi-digital rules of the Lord System, it is inevitable that [World Channel] will gradually become "online gaming". After all, there are many commonalities between the two.
He exited the [World Channel] and opened the [Regional Channel].
After nearly a month of hard work, the number of survivors in the area has basically stabilized.
During non-challenge periods, the number of lords who died due to various accidents plummeted.
The current mortality rate is between 35% and 40%, which is strictly speaking cruel.
Zong Shen estimated that after the defensive challenge is over, the mortality rate may rise to 50%.
In other words, only about half of the first batch of billions of lords to come will remain.
Even though the first batch of lords were defined as "pioneering pioneers" in their prime, this death rate was too cruel.
Correspondingly, with the accumulation of experience, the mortality rate of the second and third batch of lords should be reduced a lot.
Regarding these "dead" lords, Zong Shen was not sure whether they were really dead.
After all, in the lord system, even those warriors who have passed away in the ancient era can reappear in the form of summoning magic circles, recruitment scrolls, recruitment props, and recruitment buildings.
Moreover, the "recruitment roll" is still a public form.
According to the information Zong Shen learned, before the end of the last era and thousands of years ago, the indigenous people of the Endless Continent mastered the technology of making recruitment scrolls.
Able to seal dying warriors into another dimension.
Zong Shen didn't understand the price paid and the method.
But he once asked about the strategy module, and the answer he got was that it was currently impossible to create recruitment rolls.
The only benefit of making a recruitment roll is to indirectly save lives. All warriors sealed in another dimension, whether near death or seriously injured, can survive or even recover from their injuries, but they will not be able to reappear in the world in a short time.
Zong Shen's understanding of this is that the recruitment scroll warriors who were sealed in another dimension have been transformed from semi-digital templates, have fixed levels and talents, and their injuries before being sealed will naturally be healed.
This proves that the "recruitment volume" is a large system that the lord system has prepared for a long time, an additional measure.
It also indirectly proves that the mainland aborigines of the last era and even the last era are actually deeply involved with the lord system, which again fits Zong Shen’s previous speculation, that is, the aborigines of the previous eras are very likely to be " Lord", it's just that the "batch" is different.
I have to say that this guess is still very bold. In fact, Zong Shen's ideas have always been very avant-garde and bold.
The speeches in [Regional Channel] are quite active.
The chat topics have basically been fixed.
Roughly speaking, they are more practical topics such as territory development, resource acquisition, clues to ruins, dangerous monsters, combat skills, upcoming challenges, future destination, legion forces in the region, etc.
The lords are also constantly growing, from being immature at the beginning to being mature now.
The same goes for the topics they talked about. Few people were bragging and talking about the issues at hand.
It is worth mentioning that because [Chat Channel] has a very smart muting mechanism, this makes the chat in [Channel] extremely "high-end".
This "high-end" refers to trolling people, and basically no one is yelling or yelling at each other anymore.
Because the ban here is in a ladder mode, the first time is 7 days, the second time is 30 days, the third time is 365 days, and the fourth time is permanent ban, including insults and screen spam, you may be banned.
Therefore, the overall communication atmosphere in the [Regional Channel] is still very good.
Zong Shen read it with great interest for a while, and then he roughly understood the current average development level of the lords in the region, which also gave him a comparison and understanding of his own progress.
According to the development progress of an ordinary lord, it will take at least 6 to 8 months to reach the size of his current territory. This refers only to the comprehensive level of population and area.
Excludes high-level special buildings, defense towers, wonders, number of warriors, etc.
For an above-average lord like Jiang Yi, it will still take 2 to 3 months.
Only among the lords of Aze and Chen Rui, the gap is even smaller.
If you want to fully catch up, it will take at least a year or two like the lord.
By estimating and analyzing this situation, Zong Shen can roughly deduce that a full-scale conflict will break out between the lords and the aboriginal people, and the time point for large-scale competition for population and resources should be within the next 5 to 11 months.
It’s really exciting to see what kind of adjustments and guidance the lord system will have in the future.
Zong Shen has already planned the future hegemony territory.
When the territory is small and the lords are weak, recruitment rolls, refugees, treasure chests, and the "Challenge Month" that every batch of lords are likely to encounter are all ways to quickly increase their strength and population.
However, with the expansion of the territory, the rapid increase in population, and the gradual expansion of the strength of the lords, after the challenge month is over, the only way to achieve rapid development in the territory is to snatch resources from the indigenous people.
Such as plundering villages and settlements, as well as passing traveling traders.
After all, plundering and annexing are the fastest ways to accumulate production means and development foundation, and there is no one!
You can harvest hundreds or even thousands of people as well as a large amount of production materials and materials at one time to fill the territory's population needs!
Of course, doing so would undoubtedly incur the wrath of the indigenous people.
If you attack a village, it will trigger the retaliation of the state city. If you attack the state city, it will inevitably attract the giant city's crusade. By analogy, the conflict will definitely spread in the end.
But lords can choose to cooperate and share resources together.
This is the meaning of [Legion], and it is also the meaning of [Channel].
These functions give the lords better communication channels and a basis for cooperation, making the lords natural predators and guiding everyone on this path of rapid expansion.
Zong Shen is ready to seize the opportunity and seize a large amount of aboriginal resources before this time comes.
Of course, his target is not just villages and settlements, but also cities and even giant cities...
One step faster now and ten steps faster in the future. Advantages also grow on their own and expand exponentially over time.
Zong Shen's advantage is that he is already ahead of his time.
This is not only reflected in information, but also in the development progress of the territory, his own ideological awareness and plans for the future.
At the same time point, he will be able to achieve progress that other lords cannot achieve.
With this alone, Zong Shen set the tone that the strong get stronger.
After watching [Regional Channel] for more than half an hour, Zong Shen also figured out a lot of things.
The most important thing is that he "updated" his understanding and grasp of the development progress of the lords in the region.
The best reference is to know the development progress of other lords.
If development is compared to a racing car, then only by understanding the development progress (speed) of other people can we deeply understand our own progress (speed), and then evaluate our winning rate and distance from the finish line. At the same time, we can plan for the future. Know it well.
Just when Zong Shen was about to exit the [Regional Channel], the information prompt of the [Friends and Relatives Channel] appeared.
After nearly an hour, Aze, the stinky brother, finally recovered.
"[Picture.jpg], [Picture.jpg], [Picture.jpg]"
"Brother, have you finished setting up your territory?"
"Tomorrow at noon it will be time for the defensive challenge."
Zongze took several pictures first, which is also the built-in shooting function of [Chat Channel].
It's just that the pictures here cannot be saved or forwarded, and they will be blurred 30 minutes after viewing.
These three pictures captured the situation in Zongze's territory, and they were taken by him standing on a certain commanding height.
Aze's territory is located halfway up a mountain. In order to expand, he built rope bridges to connect several nearby mountainsides.
At the same time, the mountainside on one side of the mountain was excavated, and scattered city wall areas were built as barriers.
You can see that there are many defense towers in his territory. Of course, they are incomparable to Zong.
A rough count shows that there are as many as three to four hundred in the picture alone.
The total should be a bit higher, which is still pretty good.
Zong Shen smiled slightly, stood up and walked towards the fortress upstairs.
I replied to a message by the way.
"I'm just busy."
“The territory is well constructed!”
