#6 - Chapter 6 Equipment and Druids

“Waaaaah!”

A wild level 1 Murloc was completely surrounded by a group of level 0 Lesser Demons.

With its miserable scream, one of its arms was torn off alive, and then stuffed into the mouth of a Lesser Demon who couldn't wait.

Although another Lesser Demon beside it frantically tried to stop this behavior, it still very successfully swallowed the hard-won Murloc arm.

But don't misunderstand.

The reason why the other Lesser Demon stopped this Lesser Demon was not because it had a sudden burst of kindness.

The purpose of its obstruction was just to eat this plump and juicy Murloc arm itself.

When it saw its long-awaited delicacy being snatched away by others, it was also extremely angry.

Burning with anger, it helplessly chose other parts of this plump prey, that was its still-beating heart.

So, accompanied by the wild Murloc's useless struggle, the second Lesser Demon stuffed its heart into its mouth with a grin.

Further away, more Murlocs were repeating its tragedy.

Over there, level 1 Native Imps were also slaughtering more Murlocs who came to support them.

Although these weak Murlocs had stronger base attributes than the Lesser Demons and Imps, the number of demons attacking them this time was far greater than the number of Murlocs in their tribe.

This Murloc tribe, located in the swamp area, had all of its Murlocs brutally slaughtered by the demons.

Their home in the swamp was burned down by the Lesser Demons, and the remaining broken corpses of the Murlocs were taken back to the Endless Abyss.

Along with them, a few rare materials left behind and a gray piece of equipment dropped after clearing the Murlocs were also taken back to the Endless Abyss.

And the equipment system is also part of 【Lord Era】.

However, unlike many games.

In Lord Era, equipment is not exclusive to the Lord.

Equipment in Lord Era can not only be equipped on the Lord, but also on Spirits, Generals, and even Heroes. Even, as long as the attributes meet the requirements, many ordinary soldiers can also wear equipment.

And in the Trial Continent, and many areas outside the Trial Continent, the drop of equipment is not uncommon.

Like Murloc tribes, beast nests, necromantic cemeteries, and other fixed "monster" areas, there is a chance to obtain equipment after clearing them.

However, in many cases, the attributes of these dropped equipment are relatively garbage, and very useless.

“Stinky Murloc Short Boots...”

Wu Wei frowned involuntarily as he looked at the equipment he had obtained.

The next second, he pinched his nose and sent the equipment to the Heavenly Dao System for recycling into resource points.

Looking at the resource points that immediately arrived, Wu Wei's expression relaxed a lot.

“Finally, the urgent need is solved.”

“The resource points that had been completely exhausted before have finally begun to recover.”

The previous Wu Wei directly spent all the resource points he had on him in order to activate the Abyss Hatchery and create the first batch of troops.

Although the initial resource points he possessed were half higher than ordinary Lords, these resource points were still too few.

He had already reached the end of his rope just by creating a few hundred Lesser Demons and one hundred Native Imps.

Fortunately, Wu Wei's choice was correct.

“Now, on the Trial Continent, there are no opponents who can interfere with me.”

“The demon army I now control can also use this to prioritize clearing those wild monster gathering places that are most likely to drop valuable items, mark valuable areas, and then expand my advantage as much as possible.”

“In short, although I do a relatively poor job in operation, I only need to firmly control this first-mover advantage.”

“After all, the main event is still behind.”

Thinking of this, Wu Wei completely ignored the tragedy of the Murloc tribe, and unhesitatingly let this demon army, which had already been formed into a team, head to the next pre-marked location.

A Goblin nest with a strange statue.

But the people who are paying attention to the movements of this demon army are not only Wu Wei himself.

In the sky above, unnoticed by the demons, a gray sparrow was rapidly flying towards the distant grassland.

Because there, there was a force that could temporarily curb Wu Wei's expansion.

——————————————————

“Damn it, what's going on?”

“Which Lord's army is this, how could it enter the Trial Continent so quickly?”

In the sky, Li Mengmeng said in confusion.

At this time, her main body was not on the Trial Continent, and this sparrow was a puppet she possessed using a mutated Druid Possession technique.

Unlike other new Lords, Li Mengmeng had much better luck.

She chose the Druid race, and the initial location she randomly selected had a Forest Elf tribe that was relatively friendly to the Druid race.

As a Forest Elf clan with a strong preference for appearance, they welcomed Li Mengmeng, a woman with a top-notch appearance and temperament.

In addition, the Druid race chosen by Li Mengmeng also belonged to the natural civilization, so this group of Forest Elves gave her a gift.

This gift was the mutated Druid Possession skill.

With this mutated Druid Possession technique, Li Mengmeng could cross planes and directly possess natural creatures in other planes.

At first, Li Mengmeng didn't think this skill was so precious, after all, mutated Druid skills could be purchased in the Heavenly Dao Mall itself.

These friendly but stingy elves were just saving her a few thousand resource points.

And a few thousand resource points, in the Lord Era where tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of troops are common in the mid-to-late game, can really be said to be a drop in the bucket.

For this, Li Mengmeng was forced to flirt with several single male elves in the forest tribe for a long time.

But now, Li Mengmeng felt that this skill was really worth it.

Because she originally just wanted to observe the Trial Continent in advance, but she discovered a very dangerous situation.

That is, on the second day of the Lord's Trial, she was horrified to find that there was a new Lord who could send his forces into the Trial Continent in such a short period of time!

“Who is he? Is it Su Yingxue, known for her extreme operations, or Li Qi, who specializes in territory technology? Or... Forget it, no matter who he is, I must stop his expansion.”

“The Trial Continent is so big, I can't let him successfully occupy all the important resources in the early stage.”

“You know, the so-called Lord's Trial is not just about simple fighting and killing, layout and strategy are also part of it!”

She didn't know who this new Lord was, but just like she had said before.

All new Lords who want to pass the Lord's Trial will instinctively regard other new Lords as enemies, the kind that will never stop until one of them is dead.

So, Li Mengmeng had an idea.

She was going to win over a native race in this Trial Continent and use their power to fight against Wu Wei, who is now unstoppable and expanding frantically.

This race is the several Centaur tribes located on the grassland!

And the warriors in these Centaur tribes are at least level 3!

In this chaotic battle that has just begun, they may become the first force to influence the Trial Continent.
