Lei Xiao went straight to the lord's office at the other end of the corridor and began to receive today's three second-level recruitment orders.
Immediately afterwards, after some reverse reasoning, 1,200 units of copper ingots were obtained, as well as other derivatives such as copper ore and wood.
"Currently, I have 800 units of iron ingots and 7,300 units of copper ingots. The resources required for the next upgrade of the mansion are 10,000 units of copper and iron ingots."
After checking the resource reserves, Lei Xiao continued to think: "In the mansions of Su Ru and other five lords, after reaching level 5, the output of copper and iron ingots has reached 7,200 units per day.
In other words, the quantity of copper and iron ingots will be enough in less than two days.
If that's the case, let's replenish the required copper ingots today, and then go all out to produce iron ingots."
After making up his mind, Lei Xiao first set his manufacturing sequence to produce exquisite sickles.
Immediately, the trading channel was opened, and the 2,400 units of copper ore and 2,400 units of wood required for one day's production were given to Su Ru and Su Mo respectively, telling them to produce exquisite sickles to produce copper ingots.
Then he gave 2400 units of iron ore and 2400 units of wood to Sun Qi, Zhao Lu and Zhang Shan respectively, telling them to produce exquisite logging axes to produce iron ingots.
After completing all of this, Lei Xiao received another piece of today's return crystal.
"By the way, I've saved 7 pieces of city return crystals but haven't upgraded them yet, so I might as well just upgrade them."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao started to upgrade directly.
[Congratulations, your "Report Crystal" has been upgraded to "Report Crystal" worth 100 pieces! 】
[Congratulations, your "Return Crystal" has been upgraded to "Teleport Crystal"! 】
[Congratulations, your "City Return Crystal"...]
Just like that, a series of familiar prompts sounded.
In the end, Lei Xiao obtained 200 return crystals and 5 teleportation crystals.
"Currently, the number of return crystals is 596, and the number of teleportation crystals is 9?"
After checking this point, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
At this moment, his private message alert suddenly rang.
Out of curiosity, Lei Xiao opened the private message interface and found that the person who sent the message was Shen Banxia.
The content is as follows: "Good morning, Mr. Xiaoshen! What a sunny day!
My blessing content today is refreshed with illusion items. I wonder if Mr. Xiaoshen needs them?"
Looking at the words in the private message, Lei Xiao suddenly showed a thoughtful look, while rubbing his chin, he thought to himself: "At that time.
When Shen Banxia received the blessing for the first time in his territory, the type was an illusion item.
I gave the opponent an invisibility cloak, and finally got a good effect of "completely hiding the breath".
You must know that despite the illusion effect of the invisibility cloak, it can completely hide the figure of any strong person below the fourth level and nine stars.
However, it is unable to completely hide its own aura, so it is still possible for the other party to locate its own presence through its aura.
And with this blessing effect, it is completely possible to avoid the detection of any strong person below the fourth level and nine stars. Of course, the premise is that no sound can be made.
All in all, this blessing effect has undoubtedly greatly improved the practicality of the invisibility cloak."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao's face couldn't help but show a touch of curiosity, and he murmured to himself: "From this point of view.
If I bless another illusion cloak, I wonder what effect it will have this time?"
Realizing this, while looking forward to it, Lei Xiao traded another brand-new illusion cloak to Shen Banxia.
A moment later, with a "ding" sound, Shen Banxia's private message came into Lei Xiao's eyes again: "Brother Xiaoshen, I have given you my blessing!"
After trading back the illusion cloak, Lei Xiao retrieved the wooden storage box on the side. While taking it out, he immediately opened the attribute bar.
[Name: Blessed Invisibility Cloak]
[Level: Level 4? Epic (Purple)]
[Defense Strength: None]
[Additional effect: Invisibility Technique "After wearing it, you can hide your figure, and also have a slight effect of concealing your breath. It is effective for strong people of the fourth level and below."]
[Blessing Effect: Level 5 Hiding Technique "After wearing it, the body shape and breath can be completely hidden, and it is effective for powerful people of Level 5 and below"]
[Note: The invisibility cloak enchanted by a legendary fifth-level illusionist can be used in any environment, but please be careful not to make strange sounds.]
"Fifth-level concealment technique? Can you completely hide your body shape and aura? Isn't this the combination of invisibility technique and concealment technique?"
Seeing this, Lei Xiao's face suddenly showed a look of surprise.
I saw him caressing the cold silk cloak in his hand.
While thinking thoughtfully in his mind, he said: "Although this invisibility cloak is extremely effective, it only has special effects on those who are strong at level 4 and below nine stars.
For fifth-level powerhouses, the effect is extremely poor. According to Hu Zhi, the flaw can be clearly seen visually, just like a reflection in water.
And this blessing effect will undoubtedly make the fifth-level powerhouse unable to detect any clues. It will definitely have a great effect on our own side.
After all, whether facing the Lengyan royal family or the mysterious organization, the possibility of encountering a fifth-level powerhouse will greatly increase.
Therefore, at this stage, whether it is hiding strength as a trump card or tracking it.
Compared with the first one before, these two blessed invisibility cloaks are undoubtedly more practical!"
Realizing this, Lei Xiao first nodded with satisfaction, and then continued to think: "By the way, let's get back to it.
The first item, "Completely Concealing Aura," has no marked effective range, but after previous tests, it was not detectable by Japanese knotweed.
This undoubtedly means that this effect is also effective for fifth-level experts.
If this scope can be effective to higher levels.
So, from the perspective of concealing the aura alone, the role of the first invisibility cloak cannot be underestimated."
At this time, Lei Xiao put the blessed invisibility cloak in his hand back into the space bracelet and said in his heart: "In short.
Whether it is the first blessed invisibility cloak or the second blessed invisibility cloak, it will play an important role for our side that cannot be ignored!"
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao pondered for a moment, and then directly traded the resources needed to upgrade the level 3 mansion to level 5 to Shen Banxia.
This girl's talent is quite important, and on the edge of the territory, there is the ruins of the light elves that have not yet been fully explored, which requires her to monitor.
Therefore, expanding its population from the existing 50 to 200 people will obviously further enhance its survivability and thus better assist itself.
Moreover, the output of copper and iron ingots will also increase further.
"Brother Xiaoshen, what are you...?!"
On the other side, seeing the large amount of resources that Lei Xiao had traded, Shen Banxia was sitting on a wooden stool at the entrance of the mansion, her long eyelashes flickering, and she could hardly believe her eyes.
"Consider these as my return gifts this time." Wei Xiao smiled, and then typed in a private message: "Of course, there is an additional condition."
Next, Lei Xiao told Shen Banxia about the matters that the five lords like Su Ru had created for themselves.
"Please rest assured, Mr. Xiaoshen, since my magic circle is idle most of the time, there is no problem with all this!!!"
Immediately afterwards, Shen Banxia's reply came immediately, and he used three exclamation points to express his excitement.
In this way, her development speed is undoubtedly ahead of most lords!
"Then let's do this for now, see you later." After typing the last line, Lei Xiao stopped talking and walked out of the lord's office.
Going down the spiral staircase, Lei Xiao soon arrived at the lobby on the first floor of the lord's mansion.
"Good morning, Lord!"
On the other side, the old butler Ward, who had already cleaned the hall and made it look brand new, immediately came up with several maids, and they all bowed and saluted.
"Good morning, everyone, thank you for your hard work."
After that, Lei Xiao drank the black tea brought by the maid and listened to Ward's talent show, then walked out of the lord's mansion.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, a burst of fresh air mixed with the fragrance of plants hit his face, which made Lei Xiao's spirit lift up.
Next, Lei Xiao's mind moved, and a pair of lavender magic wings emerged from behind him.
The next second, as his wings flapped, Lei Xiao jumped directly into the air and floated in mid-air.
At this time, Lei Xiao, who was standing high, looked around.
It was found that both the east and west gates and the towering walls surrounding the territory were obviously completely completed.
Under the illumination of the morning light, the armors and weapons of the subordinates who were standing guard on the city wall shone with silver light, making everything full of medieval simplicity.
"Not bad, not bad. In this way, the territory's defense capability will be improved to another level!"
Overjoyed, Lei Xiao's magic wings vibrated and began to fly slowly in the territory. Next, he noticed again.
At present, the smell of cement in the territory has almost completely dissipated, and the cement smoothed out in the gaps of each fort has already been completely integrated with the fort, and it looks like a perfect fit.
"As expected of magic cement, which is said to be harder than stone after solidification, and can even resist spell attacks. I spent a lot of money to buy it."
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao moved his eyes and continued to observe.
After that, he made further discoveries.
The five canteens in the southeast corner of the territory have all been renovated, and the aroma of cooking food can already be heard in the large kitchen next to them.
"Each of these canteens can accommodate 200 people, which means that the subordinates of two squadrons can eat at the same time. It is undoubtedly sufficient at this stage."
Noticing this, Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction and murmured to himself: "In this way, the soldiers no longer have to eat in the open.
I have to say that the territory’s infrastructure is indeed getting better and better.”
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao slowly landed on the ground, then opened the territory slave interface and started to check it out.
"Currently, I have a total of nine second-level squadrons with full set of third-level equipment among the elite soldiers directly under my command.
In addition to two squadrons of great swordsmen and a squadron of magicians, they were deployed outside Kongqing Town.
The two shadow squadrons have spread throughout the eastern region of Lengyan."
Lei Xiao was seen checking the slave interface while continuing to think: "Except for these five elite squadrons.
Within the territory, there are also two squadrons of heavy shield shooters capable of both offense and defense, a squadron of heavy guards who are good at defense, and a squadron of peasants with all longbows.
Of course, there is also a squadron of werewolf warriors and a squadron of half-elf archers, also with a full set of third-level equipment.
In other words, at this stage, there are six second-tier elite squadrons as the core force of the defensive territory?"
Nodding thoughtfully, Lei Xiao walked slowly in the territory and fell into deep thought: "Add to this a team of ten third-level powerhouses such as Ward and Rudy.
As well as a team of third-level pterosaur knights who can support at any time, two alchemists, Xue Ya who has been promoted to the fourth level, and Faxia, who is at the peak of the third level, as well as the new illusionist Xiaoya.
With such combat power, unless a fifth-level warrior arrives, even an army of ten thousand people cannot easily invade the territory.
Of course, there is also the Tower of Vision, which can perform special attacks, and the Light Healing Station, which can heal at any time, which can further increase one's continuous defense capabilities.
The most important thing is that I can quickly respond in just five minutes."
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao continued to think: "But, then again.
If the mansion can be upgraded to another level, it will undoubtedly unlock more population limits and further enhance the territory's combat power.
In addition, the problem of copper and iron ingots, the main resource required for upgrading, has been solved.
In other words, the only problem left is the 2,000 units of fine steel ingots.
In addition to Fang Hai who is already building it, I have to emphasize it again during the meeting later and instruct subordinates in various places to step up the purchase of weapons made of fine steel ingots.
You must fight for it. When the number of copper and iron ingots is enough tomorrow, you can directly start upgrading the mansion."
After making up his mind, Lei Xiao looked at the soldiers not far away who had been practicing for a while, and nodded thoughtfully.
Then, sniffing the increasingly rich smell of butter in the air, Lei Xiao took steps and arrived at the large canteen where meals were already being prepared.
Although the environment in the mansion restaurant is more comfortable, Lei Xiao still decided to lead all the main and subordinates to eat in the canteens of different squadrons every day.
In this way, not only can the morale of the soldiers be improved, but also the newly joined main subordinates such as Hongye and Xiaoya can be better integrated into the environment of the territory as soon as possible.
In this way, we finished the sumptuous breakfast prepared by Rudy and other chefs in the cafeteria.
As usual, Lei Xiao gathered all the main subordinates and squadron commanders in the hall of the lord's mansion.
Next, it is naturally time to arrange work for today.
