Until now, the bone burial ground has still attracted the attention of a large number of surrounding lords.
During this time, many lords who were not afraid of death also tried to dig.
But without exception, they all aroused ferocious attacks from the undead during the excavation process.
Those undead are very powerful and there are many of them, making them difficult for today's lords to deal with.
So over time, it gradually became a forbidden place in the hearts of the surrounding lords.
The emergence of [Elegy Stone (Special)] means that large-scale development of the Bone Burial Ground is feasible.
Of course, the area of 100 meters to appease the undead is not too large, but this does not prevent Zong Shen from sending people to excavate section by section.
Originally, Zong Shen had two plans for how to excavate the bone burial ground.
The first plan is to start from the Calamity Raven Church and get a set of magic circles that the church originally used in Odo Village.
After all, Safuri is his. As long as the trip to the giant city goes smoothly, he will support Safuri to take control of Jackdaw Valley.
Wouldn't it be easy for Safuri to arrange several magic circles by then?
The second plan is to try to collect three [Demon King's Secret Orders (orange)] and gain control of the [Tower of the Dead] built by the blood-burning demon.
But the [Devil King's Secret Order (Orange)] has long been dispersed.
Except for the one in Zong Shen's hand.
One is still buried in the burial ground.
The last one is more difficult. It is located in the Imperial City of San Sebastian, one of the three imperial cities of the Kingdom of Avalon. It is the territory of Grand Duke Jonathan and the "base" of Prince Carter.
But now with the [Elegy Stone (Special)], the excavation plan for the Bone Burial Ground can be put on the schedule in advance, and at least part of the area can be excavated first.
In addition, this thing can not only appease low-level spirits on a large scale, but can also be used to specifically appease higher-level undead.
It just needs to be in person for it to take effect.
After returning to the territory this time, he can start to explore and establish a project for the special undead ruins of the Burial Ground. Zong Shen estimates that having the [Elegy Stone (Special)] and a legendary combat power will be sufficient.
Exploration requested.
Put away the [Elegy Stone (Special)], and now you have checked out all the valuable items in Count Rice's private collection.
To be honest, the harvest was quite good, which made him interested in confiscating properties in the giant city of Lentax.
You must know that Earl Rice is just one of the many nobles in the giant city.
There are at least one hundred and eighty wealthy merchants and nobles of Count Rice's caliber in the city.
If Zong Shen could raid their homes, he would surely gain a lot of good things.
However, he did not act rashly.
Conquering Earl Rice can only be regarded as a matter of course, and confiscating the house is secondary. The more important thing is to find a place to stay.
There are still two or three days left before the competition, and Zong Shen doesn't want to mess up the entire giant city of Lentax by confiscating his house.
You must know that the dormant forces in the city are already complicated enough.
There is no need for him to be exposed in order to raid his home.
It is not too late to capture the giant city first, and then plunder the wealth of the wealthy merchants and nobles later.
Even the Earl of Rice's private collection has such a harvest.
So what will be gained from the treasure trove of the castle of Marquis Henry, the representative of the Lancaster family?
Thinking of this, even Zong Shen couldn't help but look forward to it.
Therefore, the strategy for these two days is also very simple, that is, stay still and cultivate your health.
It just so happens that the Earl's Manor is luxurious enough to rest for a few days. By the way, we can use the strategy module to track and sort out the current situation in the giant city.
Zong Shen couldn't help but relax when he thought of this. He put his feet up on the table and leaned on the thick chair with his eyes closed to relax. Everyone was brought into the manor.
Just go out less these days.
By the way, it can also allow Earl Rice to go out to help find out the news.
Although the strategy module is all-powerful, the feedback it receives is only text information.
There will always be some omissions in some specific details.
This omission is not a limitation of the assistant, but the inherent perspective limitation of text information.
Therefore, it is normal to send Earl Rice to use the status and connections of the nobles to inquire about some information!
After confirming the subsequent arrangements and itinerary, Zong Shen decided to take a serious rest in the manor for a few days.
…
At the same time, in the Kugit Empire in the west of the continent, in the mountainous empire territory, there was a large open basin.
Chen Rui is in the center of this basin.
There is a huge light green teleportation light that is shining densely.
There is a countdown above this portal with more than 80 days left, which is passing minute by minute.
It is a special copy of the secondary era change catastrophe triggered by [Lord Chen Rui 199615], codenamed [Mutated Orc].
This dungeon has similar properties to the [Demon Realm Portal] dungeon triggered by Zong Shen.
These are all problems left over from ancient times.
Yes, there are not only countless ruins and treasures left in the ancient era of the Endless Continent, but there are also many unresolved hidden dangers coexisting with the large ruins.
These hidden dangers will eventually become group dungeons in various places. As soon as the countdown to the opening ends, the lords can participate in the dungeon, conduct monster spawning and crusade, earn specific points and exchange them for supplies.
It is foreseeable that in the future, in addition to participating in the struggle for hegemony among the indigenous people, conducting dungeon expeditions will also be one of the ways for the lords to obtain resources.
Currently, only Chen Rui and Zong Shen have opened the dungeon.
In fact, Chen Rui is not weak, on the contrary, he is already ridiculously strong for ordinary lords.
In the defensive challenge, his comprehensive rating ranked second in the world, second only to Zong.
Exploration progress and territory construction have also reached an extremely high level.
At present, the total population in the territory is close to 80,000, of which warriors of various types account for about one-third.
The area of the territory is comparable to that of a state city, and the same is true for all aspects of construction.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In addition, almost every part of this type of special copy is linked to large ruins.
Just like Zong Shen discovered the sealed portal to the Demon Realm in the ruins of the Desolate Wolf Clan's headquarters, as well as the [Fire Demon King (high-ranking demigod)] who destroyed the Desolate Wolf Clan.
Strictly speaking, these special copies represent interdimensional invaders who once coveted the endless continent.
The [mutated orc] discovered by Chen Rui is no exception.
There used to be ruins of a large ancient orc city here.
Just like the ruins of Azshara where Zongshen's territory is located.
And the [mutated orcs] are the suppressed existence in the ruins of this ancient orc city.
This portal leads to another smaller dimensional world.
There lives a group of ferocious and violent mutated orcs.
Being able to find and open this teleportation seal means that Chen Rui has basically completed the exploration here.
The complete exploration of each large-scale ruins means massive gains.
Including various recruitment rolls, legacy materials, inherited power, etc.
This made Chen Rui's strength improve by leaps and bounds.
Among the four major attributes under normal conditions, [Strength] has exceeded the 1,500-point mark, and [Agility] has also reached over 1,200 points.
As for [Wisdom] and [Charm], they are 672 and 893 points respectively.
This level of normal attributes has broken through the boundaries of the epic level and reached the standard of the legendary primary level.
Of course, there is still a gap compared to Zong.
But the legendary level is a threshold, which means that Chen Rui has the ability to initially intervene in giant city-level disputes.
Generally speaking, he is still one position behind Zong Shen, and the gap between the two sides is that of chasing each other.
Zong Shen's opportunities and gains came one after another, and his strength improved quite steadily.
Chen Rui specializes in a certain goal. The primary goal he set for himself from the beginning of his arrival is to completely explore the ruins of the ancient orc city.
Super large ruins are not so easy to explore.
Just like Zong Shen's Azshara ruins, they have not been fully explored until now.
The Bone Burial Ground is a big obstacle, and the second is that the [Elf Keys] have not been collected yet, so the treasure house cannot be opened.
Azshara's secret treasure trove is deep underground near the territory.
Zong Shen originally considered brute force cracking, but found that this was a foolish dream.
That treasure house is the core treasure house of the great city of Azshara.
It is the best of the best.
And it still retains a considerable part of the giant city-level restrictions and magic circles.
The [Elf Key] is not only a treasure house key, but also represents the control authority and opening authority of the restrictions left in the ruins of the city.
Even after the fall of Azshara, the Blood-Burning Demon Legion was unable to successfully open the treasure house.
Not to mention the current Zong.
According to the feedback from the strategy module, the comprehensive defense capability of Azshara's treasure house is extremely strong and cannot be broken by the legendary level. It requires collecting key fragments honestly.
Currently, Zong Shen is still two away from being able to collect them all.
In comparison, neither the Azshara Mining Area nor the Wolf Clan's base camp can compare with the scale of the Azshara Ruins.
Zong Shen has only completed the exploration of part of the sewer bunker and the ruins area such as the Shadow Venom Assassin League branch.
If you include the associated Bone Burial Ground, he has not even completed half of the exploration progress of the entire ruins of Azshara.
In contrast, Chen Rui was very dedicated.
But he also made a lot of preparations to complete the exploration of this ruins.
The progress of exploration even stalled for a time.
It was not until the defensive challenge ended that his strength surged again, and he completed the entire exploration of the ruins in one go.
In terms of certain aspects of information, his advantage is no less than Zong Shen.
Although Mr. Zong is a gabi with information assistance, Chen Rui is also a reborn person.
The greatest advantage of the reborn is precisely reflected in information.
In his previous life, this ruins was an opportunity for others.
But in this life, he was the first to get there.
And by using the information collected from the previous life, we have avoided many detours.
He was similar to Zong Shen. After triggering the portal of [Mutated Orcs], he immediately chose to build a station here and had the idea of collecting tickets.
In fact, it's not just about collecting tickets, but as long as you occupy this place first, you can also gain a lead in future dungeon expeditions.
Moreover, unlike Zong Shen, Chen Rui chose to go it alone. He took his [Legion] to occupy this place together. The difference in decision-making here essentially stems from the cognitive differences between the two.
Zong Shen's vision is relatively far-sighted, looking at giant cities, imperial cities, kingdom disputes, and beyond dimensions.
A large part of Chen Rui's knowledge comes from the memories and accumulated knowledge from his previous life.
Even though both sides started with information advantages, the difference between the two is still very big.
Zong Shen's cognitive breadth and breadth will increase exponentially as time goes by.
Chen Rui's cognitive breadth still largely depends on his cognitive level in his previous life.
Therefore, he still followed the path of a strong man in his previous life, which was to develop a legion and stick together for warmth.
They are following the wolf pack route, using cooperation to smooth out some of the gaps in the threshold of force.
For example, a single lord cannot deal with the city, but if hundreds of players join together, they can launch an effective offensive against the city.
This is the meaning of teamwork.
Of course, in the final distribution of benefits, a pack of wolves will definitely not be as good as a good tiger.
The reason why Mr. Zong doesn’t follow the wolf pack tactic is because he has a big appetite and can enjoy the spoils all by himself.
And his territory's basic base is large enough, so even if he gains more trophies, he can quickly turn them into real development progress.
So this is a choice between two branches.
From a personal point of view, Zong Shen's method is of course more beneficial.
It's just that no one can learn his style of play.
The thresholds for the two methods are different. Chen Rui chose a development method with a lower threshold and a more mainstream approach.
Zong Shen chose a development method with a higher threshold, but he still took into account the development of the legion.
From time to time, some clues and small tasks are given, allowing members of the legion to form their own teams.
For example, when he captured the city of Seakabang, he selected a dozen villages suitable for conquest and plunder at this stage, with a total population of tens of thousands, and shared this information with the legion.
This was basically like him personally feeding the legion members.
Regarding the development of the legion, Zong Shen had already considered it.
He doesn't need to rely on legion for cooperation, but he still has to consider the future.
Since [Legion] is a social and cooperative function launched by the lord system, it is necessary for him to keep up.
By providing information, he supports the development of the legion. Anyway, without his personal participation, it will not hinder the self-cooperation of legion members.
If the members of the legion are used in the future, Zong Shen will not be passive because of this.
Even if it is not used in the end, through management and manipulation, he can completely control the legion members.
No matter how you think about it, Zong will not suffer.
Chen Rui didn't know about Zong Shen's choice.
He had many bold guesses about Zong Shen, but he never thought about his assistant.
Because this kind of thing is a bit super cognitive.
No matter what, he did not regard Zong Shen as an opponent, but as a partner who could be united in times of crisis.
There is no other reason, it is all because the change of prologue in the previous life left a tragic shadow on him!
