Chapter 568 The Status Quo of Zongze, the Beginning and End of the Chaos 【Subscribe】【5K】

These spears are of moderate weight, and these troll spearers can easily throw over a hundred meters.

These throwing spears cost more to forge and buy than arrows of the same rank.

There is a cost gap of nearly three to five times that.

After all, the raw material for forging a metal spearhead can almost forge seven or eight arrows.

There are pros and cons to any specialty.

Including the wolf cavalry as well.

As light rangers, they have an advantage in maneuvering.

This is especially true when facing enemy light infantry and long-range units.

But if the wolf cavalry were to face the heavy armoured infantry and heavy armoured cavalry, they would have to fall into a passive state.

In addition, the life value of coyote and cavalry is not low.

However, once it is baptized by high-level magic or arrow rain, it will also cause heavy casualties. These are the drawbacks of the wolf cavalry.

Basically, among the continents, there are some characteristic arms in each range.

These characteristic arms are not the mainstream arms of the local human kingdom.

Usually it is a special unit of a tribe that has died out that once lived in the area.

Everything is as designed.

The second round of the Balrog Boss in Zongze's area was probably killed around nine o'clock in the evening.

This kill speed can also be ranked at the top level in the whole area.

It was only more than three hours slower than the area where Zong Shen was located.

Since the fusion of [Arcane Heart], Zongze has become stronger every moment.

His current talent is equivalent to an epic arcane mage.

The affinity and induction for arcane energy have reached a very high level.

Not inferior to God's favor at all.

Moreover, [Arcane Heart] also comes with the origin inheritance of the Arcane Spirit.

As the fusion deepens, Zongze will continue to become stronger until the fusion is completely completed!

At that time, he will encounter a bottleneck.

Compared with other lords, Zong Ze is undoubtedly on a fast track.

In addition to the growth of his own strength, the development of his territory is not slow at all.

I have to say, this guy is really lucky!

Others explore the ruins by looking for them.

The relics Zongze discovered were basically found while wandering around in the mountains and forests.

He regards exploring the ruins as mountain climbing and outing, which is a kind of fun.

A few days ago, he even discovered a barren valley with mineral veins at the foot of a mountain not far from the territory.

This valley is different from the ready-made mine that Zong Shen picked up.

This valley mine has not been mined at all and is still a virgin land.

It takes a lot of manpower and material resources to excavate.

In addition to the common human farmers, Zongze also has many strong orc warriors and laborers under his command.

These guys are strong and simple-minded.

Not only can he lift the rough black iron axe, but also carry the mine to develop the mine road.

After a few days of simple excavation.

Two simple mines have been opened up.

There are some natural tunnels in the rock formations below.

As long as it takes a while, it should be able to enter the mining stage stably.

Compared with Zong Shen's clear-cut development strategy.

Zongze's development plan is more Buddhist.

In fact, before his arrival, Zongze was an avid fan of strategy games.

This is true for both real-time strategy games and development strategy games.

Of course, there is still a gap between the game and reality.

This is true even in this different world that has been semi-digitized by the lord system.

Zong Ze's strategic style is extremely patient, not aggressive enough but more than steadfast.

However, he is also working hard in the direction of the strongest lord in the region.

In more than five months, the second batch of lords will come.

It is also unknown which of the two brothers their parents will descend on.

Zong Ze and Zong Shen have always had a good relationship.

After his arrival, he also took Zong Shen as his target to pursue.

The development competition between the two brothers has never stopped.

Of course, this is one-sided.

Because Zong Shenke never regarded Zong Ze as the target of chasing.

In the recent period, the connection between Zong Ze and Zong Shen has also decreased a lot.

Brothers are not conjoined twins.

The development of a territory is like starting a family and starting a business.

In addition, the two brothers are in different areas, and they have to be busy with development or exploration every day.

There is simply no time for small talk.

When the size of the territory continues to expand, there are more things to worry about.

Not to mention Zong Shen.

Almost every day is not enough.

So now the two brothers rarely send messages to each other except for important things.

They are all working hard for their future.

When Zongze merged into the [Heart of Arcane], he once peeped into some secrets about different dimensions, which are secrets that belong to the world.

In time, Zongze may have the opportunity to leave the Endless Continent and go to other dimensions.

But that doesn't mean he can go back to Earth.

It can only be regarded as exploring some secrets outside the world.

Zong Ze once said frankly to Zong Shen about this.

He believed that his brother also had an adventure.

Although their brothers have had very different trajectories.

But their purpose is the same.

That is, one day in the future, Zong Ze and Zong Shen will be able to fight side by side.

Join hands to explore the world's highest secrets!

Zong Ze firmly believed in this.

His brother is developing very well now, but he also believes that he will never lag behind Zong Shen too much in the future.

Zongze's territory was built halfway up the mountain.

There is not much land available for development and construction.

Most of the farmers under his command are human, and there are also a small number of orc laborers.

These orc laborers are from the recruitment volume.

They have two prominent canine teeth on their lower jaws, which are also the characteristic facial features of the Orcs.

In addition, they are physically stronger than human farmers.

It's just not as intelligent as the average human being.

It looks a bit goofy.

Not as fast as a human farmer, but has an advantage in heavy physical activity.

The initial strength of these orc laborers is almost twice that of human farmers.

Whether it is collection or transportation, it is a good hand.

Zongze is also digging frantically on the mountainside these days.

A lot of open space was opened up.

In addition, he also connected the opposite mountainside dozens of meters away by building a rope bridge.

Because of terrain restrictions, in the future, his territory can only be built on the mountains like most mountain fortresses in the Rhodok kingdom.

It is impossible to build a magnificent city directly on the plain like Zong Shen.

Of course, mountain fortresses have natural defensive advantages.

Which is better or worse, only the benevolent sees benevolence, and the wise sees wisdom.

Zongze did not rest after returning to the territory. His city lord's mansion has been upgraded to the fourth level, but it is not a fortress-type route, just an ordinary city lord's mansion.

After returning to the bedroom, the first thing Zong Ze did was to take off some damaged leather armor and put on a loose lavender mage robe. He came to the large terrace on the third floor and sat down cross-legged. He closed his eyes and entered. in a state of meditation.

After a few minutes, some lavender and gray spots of light began to condense around Zong Ze.

These dots of light are like fireflies, gathered together little by little, they are the energy of the arcane magic element.

Meditation is also one of Zongze's daily practice methods.

Because his territory is in the mountains and forests, the air is extraordinarily fresh.

Zongze opened two flower beds in the courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion.

The flowers in it are growing and blooming beautifully.

Like a blossoming red wine glass.

The refreshing fragrance of flowers permeated the entire city lord's mansion.

The core is covered with a sticky layer of honey.

It doesn't look as simple as ordinary flowers.

Nine times out of ten, it is some special plant, and those honey and floral scents may have magical effects.

Just like the [Magic Well] and [Lunar Well] in the courtyard of the fortress of City Lord Zongshen.

The flowers in the flower beds glowed reddishly under the moonlight.

Every corner of the lord's mansion can smell the faint fragrance of flowers.

Zongze quietly closed his eyes and meditated, which was an indispensable practice for him every day.

Compared to the busy day, he usually practiced at night, because the mage's meditation can effectively replace sleep.

Just when he entered a state of concentrated meditation, from the room behind him, several mage girls in mage robes and slim cat-eared girls and rabbit-eared girls walked to the terrace.

They took out a piece of lavender arcane magic gems.

The arcane magic energy inside these gems is like a purple-gray cloud, constantly churning.

This situation shows that the rank of these arcane magic gems is at least the third rank.

It is a rare high-end product.

The mage mother and the beast ear mother surrounded Zong Ze, and took out a dozen arcane magic gems in one breath, and placed a circle beside him.

With the deepening of Zongze's meditation, the arcane elemental energy in these magic gems was also drawn out.

They were like strands of silk threads, and like thin smoke drifting toward Zong Ze's body.

Most of these mages are water mages wearing blue robes.

One of them had gold thread embroidered on the edge of her robe and a pale blue tide emblem on her chest.

The appearance is as quiet as water, as quiet and gentle as a lake.

The adjectives "virtuous", "gentle" and "dignified" are the best descriptions of her.

She turned out to be a water goddess!

Speaking of which, Zong Ze and the Water Mage have always had a good relationship.

After these mage girls and beast ear girls arranged arcane magic gems next to Zongze.

He quietly left the terrace.

It seems that it is not the first time to do this.

The elemental energies within these arcane magic gems gather rapidly.

Looking at it like this, it is possible to maintain five or six hours of meditation practice.

It must be said that Zongze's use of magic gems to assist his cultivation is also a very luxurious behavior.

If he had to consume more than a dozen arcane magic gems for his meditation practice every night.

So over the years, the consumption of gems is not a small amount.

It seems that in addition to the inheritance of the arcane spirit, Zongze should have also obtained other things left in the ruins, such as a batch of arcane magic gems for practice!

Otherwise the origin of these arcane magic gems simply cannot be explained.

After all, Zong Ze didn't directly take away a gryphon's nest like his brother did, and took away all the gems accumulated by the gryphons for decades or even hundreds of years. By the way, Zong Shen also discovered a natural gemstone vein nearby. .

Under normal circumstances, it is not easy to get magic gems.

Not even through the 【Market】, not only the cost is a large amount, but the amount is not too much.

Instead of thinking about buying from the lords, think about getting magic gems from the natives.

After all, the current lords are very poor.

Even if you occasionally get some magic gems from some exploration, they won't be too many.

Therefore, the price of the magic gems currently listed in the [market] is not cheap, and the types and quantities are not many. This situation can only be gradually changed after the lords continue to strengthen.

At least the price of gems in the [market] is so outrageous now.

Speaking of which, the two brothers are surprisingly consistent in their profligacy.

Brother Zongshen was able to use high-level ice magic gems to attack the Balrog Boss.

And his younger brother Zongze was a little more pragmatic, and he chose to use arcane magic gems to speed up his meditation practice.

If the actions of the two brothers were known to other lords, it would definitely cause a sensation!

Because magic gems are extremely valuable among lords!

Zong Shen has also recently sold some low-level magic gems.

He had brought back a lot of [market] buildings from the unowned territories he received before.

It can be used to hang magic gems for sale.

However, the lords currently have little demand for magic gems.

After all, these magic gems are used to forge related magic equipment or build magic circles.

Most of the lords have not yet reached the time when they can be used.

However, the single product that cannot hold the gemstone for sale is highly profitable.

So the overall profit is pretty decent.

However, in terms of sales alone, selling magic gems is not as easy as selling ore resources.

In short, these two brothers are outrageously extravagant.

Under the darkness of the forest.

From time to time, a loud beast roar could be heard in the distant forest.

There are many nocturnal beasts that always hunt at night.

Mountains and forests have never been the exclusive domain of human beings.

These beasts and monsters are also part of the forest.

Zongze still closed his eyes and kept meditating with a calm expression.

This calm comes from his confidence in his own territorial defense capabilities.

When night comes, the nearby mountains and territories are patrolled by strong orc warriors, mountain troll pitchers, and goblin pilots in various fel mechs.

In addition, there are forty or fifty [Armored Arrow Towers] covered with spiked metal plate armor inside the territory, as well as some special high-level defense towers.

These have made his territory's defense capability reach a very high level.

Zong Ze and Zong Shen are both keen on tower defense.

Leng is to play the lord's survival and construction development to become a lord tower defense.

Zong Ze's breathing became more and more steady, as peaceful as night.

As the night darkened, the territory became more and more quiet.

Only the footsteps of one soldier patrolling echoed.

...

Just at this time.

Far away in the Jackdaw Valley on the border of the ice sheet in the northern part of the continent.

This is one of two giant city-level jurisdictions under the control of the Church of Calamity Ravens.

The Raven Lady Sapphire now resides in Jackdaw Valley.

In the previous Odo Village operation, the church failed to complete the mission as expected.

Also lost a large number of church members, deacons, elders and warriors of the Jackdaw Apostles.

The church spent a lot of effort digging up the burial ground, trying to obtain the remnant of the dreadlord Balnazzar.

Unfortunately, in the end it was a step behind.

The village of Odo was captured by the Rentax giant city crusade ahead of schedule.

The resources they spent on building the Raven Tower and excavating the ruins, as well as the painstaking planning for the past half month, were all destroyed.

The three church elders who went deep into the remains of the Bone Ground are also missing.

This is undoubtedly a very failed operation!

Although this operation was already prepared for failure when it started.

After all, Odo Village is the territory of the Kingdom of Avalon.

The risks involved are self-evident.

Therefore, more careful preparation and calculation are required.

Although the operation failed, the crusade of the great city of Rentax was not doing well either.

Those guys were almost wiped out.

The fourth-order dragonborn knights of the squadron brought by Quinnir also killed and wounded dozens.

But the greater loss is still on the side of the Church of Calamity Ravens.

In addition to losing a lot of believers and warriors, it also consumed a lot of resources.

The most important thing is that the church's plan did not succeed.

They failed to sacrifice a new Raven Spirit with their remnants.

This had a great impact on the subsequent development of the church.

Including the kingdom strategy against Avalon, the Church of Calamity Ravens has also fallen into a passive state.

Fortunately, His Majesty the Pope was extra tolerant towards Saint Sapphire, who was in charge of the Odo Village operation, and did not blame her too much. Instead, he arranged a new task to be carried out by Sapphire.

This time the mission is also related to the Rentax giant city.

The main base of the Church of Calamity Ravens is actually in the north, but they want to extend the tentacles of the church to the eastern part of the continent.

Especially the great city of Rentax, where there is a burial place, from which there is a chance to obtain a large number of demon remnants and the souls of the strong who died in the era of war, and sacrifice ravens to the Church of Calamity Ravens. The spirit is of great help.

In addition, there is the most important circumstance that is the real reason why the Church of Calamity Ravens is attached to the Kingdom of Avalon, that is, there is a crisis within the royal family of Avalon.

The contemporary king of Avalon, Guther Pendragon is of advanced age.

Originally, he could live longer, but it was a pity that his dragon vein baptism failed.

Every king of Avalon receives a baptism of dragons.

Infiltrate itself with the blood of the red dragon above the old dragon.

The red dragon blood is domineering and hot, and it contains abundant power.

For the Kingdom of Avalon, it is not difficult to obtain dragon blood that meets the requirements.

But baptism is not 100% successful, it can only be done once in a lifetime.

A lot of preparation work is required to ensure that there is no life-threatening failure after the failure!

Once the baptism is successful, the lifespan can reach the level of an old dragon, and there is no problem in living for five or six hundred years!
