Chapter 222 Jia Xu Becomes the Acting City Lord! Hang Yu's New Mount!

After the filthy golem was destroyed.

Hang Yu received a reminder from the will of the stars.

[You absorbed a special pollution source, third-level talent points +6! ]

After obtaining the flesh and blood of the filthy offspring, Hang Yu could have directly absorbed this special pollution source. The reason why he did not absorb it was to see if it had any special use. Anyway, he could use it anytime he wanted.

This thing can also be brought back to the land of the stars as a local specialty.

Because special pollution sources are a useful material for top lords who can directly compete with evil gods.

Even legendary lords like Principal Long would be interested, and have the opportunity to exchange scarce resources or benefits from real big guys.

Of course.

There are many opportunities and ways to obtain special pollution sources.

Top talents like Jia Xu are hard to come by.

This time, Hang Yu cleverly used the characteristics of the pollution source to more thoroughly pollute Jia Xu, causing his body to quickly collapse and demonize, so as to implement purification more thoroughly, thereby achieving the goal of breaking through and building up.

When players hunted the Filthy Golem, the pollution source was not wasted, but was purified and converted into talent points.

The harvest of six third-level talent points was quite good.

If you can swallow up a high-quality third-level secondary pollution source, you can save enough blessing points to open the next talent, which can not only improve your strength, but also allow Hang Yu to get closer to the fourth level.

Of course.

Although there are many secondary pollution sources in the Jiuwan area, they are not necessarily all third-level, and even if they are third-level, the quality is generally not too high. For example, the level of evil dragons and evil infants is rare.

The most common third-level nightmare pollution source can generally only provide 1 third-level talent point, so it may take some effort to save enough talent points.

Hang Yu is not in a hurry.

First of all, he needs to activate two more talents to enter the fourth level, and this is definitely not something that can be done immediately in a short time.

Secondly, the development of the territory needs to pursue balance as much as possible, and blindly pursuing personal strength improvement is not advisable.

It has been less than three months since Hang Yu became a lord, and his development speed is already amazing. If he is determined to break through his strength, it is not impossible to reach the fourth level within three months.

But his personal strength has improved.

The development of the territory and the training of the army cannot keep up for a while.

There are still many important buildings that need to be built in Luoshui City and the territory.

In addition, there are too many buildings that need to be upgraded, and the population and resources in the actual control area have not been fully integrated.

Before these foundations and bases are solid, it is not only useless to attack the fourth-level lord purely for speed, but it may match too powerful opponents in advance, thus putting oneself in a completely unnecessary dilemma and threat.

Stable development is the kingly way.

It is necessary to spend more energy on territory construction.

Hang Yu gathered his thoughts and first took stock of the harvest this time. Although the Scourge Legion successfully eliminated the filthy golem in this battle, it also paid an astonishing casualties and generated more than 40 million spirit income.

This obviously exceeded expectations.

Hang Yu was generous in rewarding and training the Scourge Army.

He only kept 20 million essences, and the rest were all given out as mission rewards.

This instantly restored the levels of a group of players who had been downgraded, and also allowed many first-level players to enter the second level, and many second-level peak players to get one step closer to the third level, and the overall strength of the army was further improved.

For the players, the surprises did not stop there.

At least twenty people received gold ratings in this battle.

These people opened many precious items from the reward treasure chest, such as the Black Dragon Spirit Horse Bone Whistle, skill books, skill cards, attribute medicines, and various functional props, special items, etc.

After a hard battle.

The rewards were generous.

It can be said that after all the hard work, it paid off.

It gave people both spiritual and material satisfaction.

The spoils dropped by the Filthy Golem were also a huge gain in this battle. In order to prevent the loss of essence in the spoils, the players also picked up the BOSS's drops as soon as possible.

[You picked up the loot, Abyssal Essence +7 million, Abyssal Magic Crystal +30,000, Filthy Outer God's Golem Eyeball +441, Filthy Outer God's Golem Flesh +425, Filthy Golem Gem +200, Filthy Golem Spirit +100! ]

"Fuck! So much Essence! So many Magic Crystals!"

"Is this the complete drop scale of Overlord-level units?"

"The Essence reward alone is a big profit, enough to make up for the Essence we lost in the battle!"

"..."

Little Bell was confused: "Why didn't you drop any equipment!"

Black Eyed Rui Ge: "Although this BOSS is a monster formed after Jia Xu's body collapsed, it may not be complete without Jia Xu's soul, and the distortion of the flesh and blood of the evil god's offspring, so the Filthy Golem is not a humanoid monster in the broad sense."

I have been in the Abyss Three Kingdoms for so long.

Of course, I am familiar with the drop situation of various types of targets.

Humanoid units, wild monster units, star units, indigenous units, etc.

The drop situation will be very different depending on the type of target that players hunt.

Of course, the above classifications are only broad classifications. Each type can be further subdivided into many different branches, and there are also some special monsters that cannot be so simply classified.

In most cases.

The number of humanoid monster units is the largest. They generally do not drop materials other than gems. Although they will drop equipment, the number is not large, but the output of essence is extremely high.

The overall number of Abyss wild monster units is not as large as that of Abyss humanoid units. The drop of essence and magic crystals are both medium, but they will produce considerable production materials, and the overall economic value is the highest.

Although the BOSS hunted by the Scourge this time was transformed from a human, due to various coincidences, it eventually became a wild monster BOSS, so it did not drop equipment directly.

But in fact, it is more valuable.

Under the blessing of the Scourge, the Filthy Golem exploded thousands of blue materials at one time. The value of these materials is ten times higher than five or ten pieces of blue quality equipment!

If you only look at the economic value and return.

The profit created by this golem is more than twenty or thirty times higher than that of Zhang Xiu, which is definitely a great harvest.

Although it did not explode a single piece of blue quality equipment, the materials it produced are enough to create the value of dozens or even hundreds of blue equipment for the territory, and more players can benefit from it.

When all the players returned to report.

Hang Yu nodded with satisfaction and said: "This battle was well fought. You have grown a lot during this period of time, and now you have the ability to stand on your own."

When you get the affirmation and praise from the lord.

The Scourge Army showed excitement one by one.

"It's all the credit of the Lord!"

"We just did our part!"

"That's right! It's our honor to serve the Lord! To contribute to the territory! This is our honor to serve the Lord! We will definitely continue to work hard and do better!"

"..."

The players took the opportunity to lick wildly.

Hope to increase the favorability of more NPCs.

At this time, they were surprised to find that a different figure appeared beside Hang Yu and Zhang Zhongjing.

This person is none other than Jia Xu who was just killed. His body is now translucent and floating in the air, exuding a cold breath, just like a physical and invisible ghost.

"Excellent!"

Jia Xu praised: "The means and capabilities of the Scourge Army are amazing. The Lord can create such a force, so why worry about not being able to sweep the abyss? I am looking forward to the future of the territory more and more!"

Everyone looked at Jia Xu.

[Taiyin Ghost: Jia Xu], a level 25 commander-level unit... Introduction: Jia Xu refined his soul into a spirit form through the extremely Yin secret method. Although his strength is far less than his peak state, he still has a power that cannot be underestimated.

This is actually the backup plan Jia Xu left for himself.

When he realized that he was polluted, he decisively extracted his soul and sealed it, just to transform into a ghost state and continue to survive when everything was irreversible.

Even this plan has a low success rate.

First of all, he must have the help of Zhang Zhongjing to complete the transformation of the ghost state.

This is why Jia Xu tried to use Hang Yu to help find Zhang Zhongjing at the beginning.

Secondly, it is extremely difficult to completely sever the connection between the body and the soul with the means he has mastered. In the end, it may still be continuously polluted until even the soul is completely corrupted.

Now.

With the help of the lord.

The goal has been perfectly achieved!

This state is enough for him to survive for many more years, but the lack and incompleteness of the soul and body will greatly reduce his qualifications, abilities and talents, and the ceiling that can be achieved in the future will also be greatly reduced.

After Jia Xu woke up again.

He could feel the process of this battle.

The immortality of the Scourge Army made him feel unprecedentedly shocked.

This army is almost invincible, and as the existence that created this army, the lord's ability and terror are even more soul-shaking. It was not until this moment that he deeply realized how great an existence he would follow.

Hang Yu: "Your current state is just for transition. This lord is preparing for you to rebuild your body. It will probably take you a few days to restore your full strength."

"Thank you, Lord!"

Jia Xu bowed and saluted respectfully, "I have never imagined that I would have a perfect recovery day. Without the Lord's gift, this is a miracle that would never be possible. I am willing to follow you from now on and repay your kindness!"

"Good!"

The players were extremely happy!

It seems that the result is set in stone!

This top talent will join the territory!

This is more exciting than completing the task, getting rewards, and harvesting spoils!

After all, there are still tasks, and rewards and gains are temporary, but Jia Xu joining the territory can change some things permanently!

This ancient poisoner must be first-class in terms of personal means and ability, as well as luck and talent. In the future, he will play a long-term role in the territory and contribute more stories and gameplay to players.

For example.

What skills does Jia Xu have?

I'm afraid there are countless and astonishing numbers!

There must be many top hidden skills flowing out of him!

"Jia Xu, you just entered the territory, so you can temporarily serve as the acting city lord of Xinwan!"

Hang Yu thought for a while and arranged a job for Jia Xu: "I will give you the relevant authority to command the natural disaster army, and I will also send a Canglong Guard to assist. Your next task is to complete the coordination and arrangement of human resources for the territory as soon as possible!"

Jia Xu has a very high reputation in the Xinwan area.

Although few people have seen him, no one does not know him.

Because the basis of the existence of the Xinwan area is the six-party luck formation, the Jiyin Patriarch is even higher than the spear king Zhang Xiu in terms of his lofty status in the hearts of the people, and the Jiyin Sect he founded is also one of the strongest forces in Xinwan.

As the boss behind the scenes, Jia Xu had spies all over Xinwan, so he naturally knew the situation in Xinwan very well.

And he knew very well.

He needed to perform once.

To prove his ability and value.

Jia Xu immediately issued a military order: "It only takes three days for me to complete the integration of all the military and civilians in Xinwan for the lord, so that Xinwan can be completely integrated into the territory!"

Hang Yu was very satisfied.

There are hundreds of thousands of people in Xinwan.

It is not easy for an outside conqueror to completely digest this area.

Even if Hang Yu has won the hearts and loyalty of the people, it is still a very heavy task to do a good job in organizing human resources.

He is not good at internal political management.

And this is not the focus of education in the Lord Academy.

This is because before becoming a lord, each star lord cannot predict what kind of plane he will land in, let alone judge the local culture, environment, and race.

In this case, it is not cost-effective to spend a lot of time learning management, because different races and environments require different governance methods, and there is no standard solution at all.

When facing alien races that are fundamentally different.

It is difficult for the lord to truly understand their culture or their demands, and it is unlikely to establish real trust. It is better to take the hegemonic route and suppress them with absolute force, thereby saving the cost of ruling.

The hegemonic route is indeed the best solution for most lords.

Hang Yu does not intend to use this method.

Because although the kingly way is the most difficult of the many conquest styles, once it is successfully implemented, it can maximize the potential talents of each lord and allow every talent to shine.

And the loyalty, honor and sense of belonging of the lords.

is the strongest backing of the territory.

Jia Xu is the biggest local snake in Xinwan, and he knows every force and every unit in Xinwan like the back of his hand. It is undoubtedly the most appropriate for Hang Yu to entrust the human resources integration work to him.

And Hang Yu's requirements are also very simple.

Collect all the household registration information, production capacity, level distribution, list of high-quality monks, local skill information, etc. of the territory.

This will speed up the creation of the Black Tiger Guard and the Iron Eagle Guard, and complete the population adjustment as soon as possible, moving part of the population to the main city, or places such as Xinye that need to be rebuilt.

Optimize human resources.

Create greater value.

Hang Yu issued some tasks to the Scourge Army that remained in the Xinwan area.

He encouraged the Scourge Army to continue exploring the remaining locations in Wandi and recapture more abandoned town strongholds!

The Xinwan area concentrates 95% of the population of Wandi, but its area accounts for only about one-tenth of the entire Wandi. There are currently more than ten old cities including the Old Wancheng, and a large area of ​​unexplored areas can be developed.

The Scourge Army is still too weak.

There is also a threat from foreign lords.

Now is not the time to attack the core pollution area.

But this does not prevent the territory from encroaching on more land and obtaining more resources. In the process of land reclamation, more monster resources can be included in the hunting area, thereby increasing the strength of the Scourge Army and improving the resource output of the territory.

As for the Corpse Witch Territory in the north of Woniu Mountain?

This is indeed a threat and trouble!

However, the territorial contact has only been three days, and both sides have not tested each other enough, and it is far from the time for a decisive battle.

The territory protection period of the evil corpse demon lord is still four days.

During this period, it is impossible to send troops to actively test, and there is no need to deploy a large number of troops on the border, because when the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, the assembly of large troops may reveal flaws and expose more information.

The core area of ​​Hangyu is Luoshui City.

With Woniu Mountain in the north as a strategic buffer and barrier, the enemy lord is unlikely to launch a large-scale invasion, and a surprise attack by a small force has proved to be impossible to succeed.

Hangyu only needs to maintain strategic concentration.

Let Wen Pin continue to defend Shansang City.

Keep an eye on the mobilization of the large troop of the evil corpse demon.

Other places should do what they should do and develop at a normal pace. There is no need to disrupt the rhythm.

It's just four days, and it will pass in a blink of an eye. When the territorial protection period ends, it will not be too late to seek strategic initiative and launch a counterattack!

Make arrangements.

Jia Xu returned to Xinwan.

He came directly as the acting city lord.

With him in Xinwan, this area can be assured.

After returning to the main city, Hang Yu asked: "How is the recent acquisition of drawings?"

Xiao Ba immediately replied: "Report to the master, five spiritual field drawings have been received in the past few days, and a total of nine reconnaissance tower and barrier tower drawings have been obtained."

There is nothing strange about collecting spiritual field drawings.

Hang Yu has always been collecting spiritual field drawings in the past.

Because the production capacity of the territory is increasing, the demand for spiritual fields is also increasing.

As for the reconnaissance tower and barrier tower drawings?

This is because after experiencing Gan Ning's sneak attack, Hang Yu felt that the detection and defense capabilities of the territory were insufficient, so he asked Xiao Badao Trading Market to purchase drawings of various security functions.

Among these common drawings, the most common ones are the reconnaissance tower and the barrier tower. Most of the time, the price is two to three thousand magic crystals, so nine copies were received in less than two days.

Hang Yu took a look.

Five reconnaissance towers and four barrier towers.

All of them are first-level building drawings without exception.

Frankly speaking, even if a hundred more of these buildings are built, they cannot stop Gan Ning's shadow march.

Of course, it is not to say that they are completely useless. The capabilities of the reconnaissance tower and barrier tower depend not only on the building level, but also on the scout and barrier master who activates the formation.

Just like ordinary arrow towers.

Ordinary reconnaissance towers and barrier towers are not fully automatic buildings.

These towers need to be used by someone to work. If a few high-level Canglong Guard Warlocks are arranged in the tower as scouts and barrier masters, the tower's reconnaissance perception and defense effect will be enhanced.

That's why.

First-level towers are not useless.

There are many third-level units in Hang Yu's territory. Whether you choose powerful enough people in the territory or directly use the Canglong Guard garrison tower, even if you can't sense the existence of Gan Ning, it is difficult for ordinary stealth units to get in!

"First-level reconnaissance towers and barrier towers are enough."

Hang Yu: "From now on, we will do our best to acquire reconnaissance or defense buildings above the second level!"

"Yes!"

"Are there any progress in the acquisition of other types of blueprints?"

"Not yet."

Hang Yu just felt a little headache.

There are many facilities in the territory that need to be upgraded.

There are also many infrastructures that need to be built.

For example, preaching-type building facilities, such as recovery-type building facilities, etc.

The former can help the territory spread skills better. After all, the territory has more and more skills as it develops, but most of the skills do not have skill stones.

Hang Yu wants these skills to circulate quickly in the territory. The best way is to build a large dojo in the territory, but this type of building blueprint is relatively scarce and difficult to sell.

As for the recovery-type building facilities?

There are many types of buildings of this type.

Among them, it is not easy to find one that meets Hang Yu's requirements.

Hang Yu wants a restorative building that can heal soul and mental damage, so that the player's fatigue can be quickly repaired, which can not only effectively reduce the player's offline time, but also become the basis for building arenas and competitive gameplay.

About the arena.

It is a project that Hang Yu attaches great importance to.

Once this thing is successfully built, it will not only greatly increase the fun of the players' games, but also give the territory an additional place to cut leeks and regularly produce essence.

The development of the territory to the present.

There are too many places that need to be built and improved.

This process requires a lot of resources and magic crystals.

Hang Yu's current income can only barely maintain development.

However, whether it is resources or magic crystals, even if the demand is large, there is always a way to accumulate them.

What is more troublesome now is the drawings, especially some rare drawings, which cannot be bought with money.

The current market opened in the territory is too small, whether it is export or purchase of items, there are restrictions. It is necessary to open up more and larger markets as soon as possible to meet the growing development needs.

"Lord, Yan Ling wants to see you."

Just as Hang Yu was thinking about this, Canglong Guard Zhang San suddenly came forward to report, which made him slightly stunned, and then nodded.

"Let her in!"

Yan Ling walked into the core hall. She looked very tired after not sleeping for a few days. It can be seen that she has been working overtime these days. But her eyes were bright and her face was full of excitement and expectation.

"You have fulfilled your mission. Your mount has been refined!"

After saying that.

Yan Ling directly handed over a bone whistle.

[Whistle of the Absolute Shadow Evil Dragon], a third-level special equipment, blue inferior quality, with the skill "Absolute Shadow Summoning", durability 100/100.

"Well done!"

Hang Yu was very satisfied with this item.

It was different from making an ordinary black dragon warhorse bone whistle.

This Jueying spirit was a unique spiritual material, which was very difficult to handle, and there was only one chance. Once it failed, it would be ruined.

Yan Ling was refining it under such circumstances, and the difficulty and pressure she felt were unprecedented.

But she succeeded in the end!

She did not disappoint the lord's expectations!

Yan Ling quickly said modestly: "A large part of the credit for successfully refining this equipment this time belongs to the dean. He has a deep attainment in soul refining. If I hadn't gotten his help, it would have been difficult for me to complete this equipment."

The fox-eared girl refiner was still so straightforward.

But these details were not important.

Hang Yu was in need of a new mount that was strong enough, and Yan Ling successfully built such a mount for him.

The Jueying Whistle had no other functions.

The only function was to summon the Jueying Evil Dragon Horse.

The Jue Ying summoned by this bone whistle has the strength of a top commander, which means that even a mount of the Lord has the top-notch combat power in the current territory, and few people can beat this mount.

However.

This is not the limit.

As a piece of equipment.

It can be strengthened and improved.

The current quality of the bone whistle is blue low-grade.

The territory currently has a large number of blue quality materials. If the attributes of the bone whistle can be upgraded to blue high-grade, then with Hang Yu's current strength, he can summon a hegemon-level mount.

If even the mount can reach the hegemon-level combat power, plus Hang Yu's current accumulated strength, he can run rampant among the existence of no more than the third-level hegemon!

Even as strong as Dian Wei.

It is impossible to compete with it!

In this way, theoretically speaking, after having such a powerful mount, Hang Yu can lead his troops to break through Jiuwan at any time, thereby seizing the core pollution source of this area.

Even for Hang Yu.

This is also very useful.

Hang Yu was satisfied and naturally generous with his reward!

[You received a reward of 1 million contribution points! ]

Yan Ling suddenly received a reminder message from Xiao Ba.

When she saw the contribution points received, she couldn't believe her eyes.

One million contribution points!

Equivalent to 1 million essences!

This can not only pay off all the debts that Yan Ling owed some time ago, but also leave hundreds of thousands of contribution points for her to exchange for essences, so as to reach a higher level in her weapon refining attainments.

Hang Yu said: "This is a bonus for you."

"This... is too much!" Yan Ling said: "I am unworthy of it!"

Only one million contribution points, which is equivalent to one million essences in essences. This is nothing for Hang Yu now, but it is indeed an unimaginable number for Yan Ling.

"Then work harder to repay the territory's cultivation!"

Hang Yu said: "The territory will continue to expand the production team in the near future. In the future, the number of third-level advanced refiners will increase. As the chief refiner of the territory, you naturally have to have strong enough ability to convince everyone!"

Yan Ling suppressed the joy in his heart and nodded: "Yes!"

Are we going to recruit new refiners again?

The development speed of the territory is too fast!

…………

At this time.

The main city of corpse demons.

The lord of the evil corpse demons is in a meeting.

"Lord, the human territory has three areas in addition to Woniu Mountain, just like us." A corpse demon leader holding a long staff pointed to the map made by the phantom spell, "These three areas are named Luoshui, Baihu Mountain, and Wancheng!"

"Among them, Luoshui is the base camp of the human territory, but the scale of this area is not large. Baihu Mountain was once suspected to be other territories, but it was annexed by humans because the lord was defeated."

The soul fire in the eyes of other corpse demon leaders was shaking.

A corpse demon general said: "This human has already experienced a lord battle, and won the lord battle? He now actually controls only three places. It doesn't make sense that he has experienced two battles in such a short time!"

"No! It's not impossible!"

"The faster the territory develops and expands, the higher the probability of triggering a lord battle. The time for this human lord to rise and expand may be shorter than expected. This is definitely not a simple human."

"What a joke! Humans are such a weak and untalented race. Even if they are strong, how strong can they be!"

"In any case, don't underestimate the enemy!"

"..."

The lord of the evil corpse demon did not express his opinion in the face of his subordinates' discussion. He just said lightly: "Keep talking!"

The corpse demon holding a long staff continued: "In fact, compared with Luoshui, Woniu Mountain, and Baihu Mountain, the place that deserves our most attention is this place called Wancheng, which is suspected to have hundreds of thousands of people."

So many people?

When hearing this information.

The corpse demons were all excited.

For the undead race like them.

The indigenous population is a valuable resource that can be directly converted!

If we can convert hundreds of thousands of people, we will form a huge army!

So there is no doubt that among the territories controlled by this human race, the Wancheng area is the most valuable one!
