Chapter 439: The Barrier of Holy Light, the Hunting in the First Half
The territory's current resource reserves have reached a terrifying figure.
At least Zong Shen was shocked when he saw the resource summary next to the storage box.
It’s been a while since I paid attention to the number of resources in the territory.
I didn't pay attention to it every time I deposited and withdrawn it. Although I had some idea in my mind, I still felt very shocked after seeing the specific amount.
The current resource reserve details of the territory are as follows:
These are only the resources commonly used in the territory, not all reserves.
Because of various events, including the interception of the mithril from the Calamity Raven Church in Odo Village, as well as the profits from ore resources brought about by the exploration and development of the mines.
Including mid-to-high-level element crystals and magic energy crystals, there are currently a lot of reserves.
Fortunately, Mariel updated the territory's storage compartment in time, otherwise it might not be enough.
This is because a large amount of food is stored in warehouses and ice cellars.
Including Mariel's own storage compartment, it also shares some of the storage of small items.
Now Zong Shen's wealth, even if one tenth of it is divided, is enough to support any lord to develop his territory to a village-level unit.
After checking his belongings, Zong Shen decided to withdraw the next batch of resources later.
[Market] can provide items for sale for up to one week.
Including resources exchanged for goods for sale, each selling slot can be saved, and there is no quantity limit.
However, if the lord has not withdrawn it for more than a week, a temporary management fee of 1% per day will be charged.
And if the resources obtained from the transaction are not withdrawn, the selling position will continue to be occupied.
Therefore, [the market] can be used as a temporary warehouse, but it cannot last long.
He silently closed the [Territorial Storage Box], and in just a moment his body was covered with a layer of snowflakes.
When he moved his steps, the snowflakes began to fall.
This time the heavy snowfall is more continuous than the first stage.
After the snow stopped at three in the morning, the snow was at least 70 to 80 centimeters thick.
Coupled with the 40 centimeters of ice on the ground, this means that the overall ground height will indirectly increase by more than one meter.
However, as long as the snow does not undergo temperature changes or icy rain, it will not collapse into wet snow. The loader mecha equipped with a snow shovel can still easily open a path.
Zong Shen stood in the wind and snow, curled his lips, and then quickly walked into the lord's small building.
At this time, the small building was quiet, and the lights in the hall were extinguished.
Everyone returned to their rooms and began to rest for the night.
Zong Shen closed the door of the lord's small building and stepped up the stairs, returning to the bedroom on the second floor.
On the bed, Luna, who exuded a warm smell, had been waiting for a long time.
…
At 4 o'clock in the morning the next day, it was still dark, and the wind was howling outside the window.
Zong Shen and Luna were already dressed and went downstairs to make breakfast.
Originally, Zong Shen had no interest in things like cooking, but he couldn't resist Luna's plea.
So they cooked whole grain porridge together, steamed hard bread in a steamer until soft, and prepared sliced sausages and apples.
When they were almost done, everyone got up one after another.
According to yesterday's arrangement, their mission for the first half of the day was still to hunt the winter snow monster.
Everyone had breakfast together, not including Doris.
As one of the two heroes stationed in the living area, she returned to the living area last night.
By the time Zong Shen and the others left the small building, it was almost 5 o'clock in the morning.
The snow and ice outside have accumulated to the height of six steps.
As soon as I stepped down, the snow directly sank into my thighs.
Fortunately, the heavy snow has stopped completely, and now the outside is being baptized by gusty winds.
According to meteorological standards on Earth, Category 9 gusts have reached the level of gale force winds.
The wind speed can reach 20.8 meters to 24.4 meters per second, which is enough to lift the roof tiles.
Zong Shen wore a battle helmet and crawled through the snow with his body, forcibly opening a path in the snow to the outside of the small courtyard.
He directly took out three loader mechas and used their wide and heavy fuselages to resist the cold wind.
Originally, there were four loader mechas on his body, but one of the cargo bay baffles was damaged and was sent to the blacksmith shop yesterday for repairs.
So now he only has three loader mechas, and only two of them are equipped with snow shovels.
"Vereesa, Luna, it's just a trip for you."
Zong Shen said to Vereesa beside him, asking her to drive into a loader mecha to pick up the people.
As for Doris, they are still acting independently today, so there is no need to join up with Zong Shen.
Vereesa nodded slightly when she heard this, and put a hood on her head to block the gust of wind.
A strand of hair flows out from both sides, fluttering in the wind.
It made her look even more heroic. As a Windrunner, she had no discomfort with the windy environment. Her eyes were still bright and her movements were still vigorous.
Luna touched Black Panther's head and quickly walked towards the loader mecha.
Due to their own weight, these loader mechas crushed the snow as soon as they were taken out.
The snow on the side almost covered the tracks and was level with the driver's seat.
This shows how heavy the snow is today.
Zong Shen watched them drive the loader mecha one after another towards the living area and the magic palace.
The powerful tracks push the snow horizontally, and the snow plowing board at the front pushes the snow to both sides.
Suddenly, a wide passage was opened against the snow.
This level of snow basically blocked the travel of most lords.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The upper layer is snow and the lower layer is ice. It is difficult for ordinary war horses or beasts to move forward in such an environment.
Unless you have a large magic mecha like Zong Shen, or a flying mount, ice riding beast, or some large riding beasts, it would be difficult to walk a hundred meters in this environment with just two legs or conventional means.
Extravagant hope.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Luna and Vereesa each carried a carload of soldiers back to the central area.
Taking advantage of this gap, Zong Shen collected a wave of [Moon God Spring] and [Magic Spring], and re-cleaned, extracted, and filled the glass bottles recycled yesterday.
Today's expedition configuration has not changed much, it is still the same team as yesterday.
When the two loader mechas came to a stop, Holy Light Deacon Aisia couldn't wait to jump out of the cargo hold, walked forward in the snow, and came to Zong Shen's side.
"grown ups!"
She looked a little excited and hurriedly waved and shouted to Zong Shen.
The gust of wind made her voice become ethereal.
Seeing her like this, Zong Shen took the initiative to greet her.
"Asia, what's wrong with you?"
He came to Aisia's side, pulled her in front of him, blocked her from the howling cold wind with his body, and asked loudly.
"Sir... I have successfully comprehended my fifth Holy Light skill!"
Aisia's face was full of joy, and even the severe cold could not conceal her excitement.
"The fifth Holy Light skill?"
Zong Shen repeated this sentence with some confusion, and then he thought about it.
When Aysia advanced to the fourth-level Holy Light Deacon, there was a countdown timer in her skill bar, and there was a prompt below that she could master new skills as soon as the countdown ended.
This is the fifth skill that Aisia mentioned.
The fourth-level Holy Light Deacon can theoretically master a standard fourth-level Holy Light skill.
In the mainstream classification of magic skills, level 4 is considered an advanced skill and usually has considerable power and effects.
"Sir, it's the Wall of Holy Light!"
"This is the famous holy light protective magic in the fourth level!"
Aisia said hurriedly, Zong Shen narrowed his eyes and began to look at her new skills attentively.
[Wall of Holy Light lv10 (condensing the power of Holy Light, summoning a spherical protective force field with a diameter of 10 meters, with a solid value of 5000 points, an armor value of 50 points and magic resistance, lasting 20 minutes, and a cooling time of 2 hours
, At the same time, the Wall of Holy Light has the ability to passively counterattack. When attacked, it will summon Holy Light Arrows to launch a counterattack)]
This is a powerful group protection skill. At level 10 alone, it has a solid value of 5,000 points and a double resistance of 50 points.
This makes Alsia's team support position more stable.
A range of ten meters in diameter is enough to cover a team of dozens of people.
In short, this skill will further enhance the team's ability to withstand pressure.
"Congratulations Aishia."
"This is an excellent skill."
"It gives us extra protection."
Zong Shen said with a smile, and the smile on Ai Xia's face suddenly became more obvious.
She turned around and stuck out her tongue at Tasia who was on the loader mecha behind her, making a provocative expression. The latter snorted coldly and turned her head away.
"Okay, let's get back to the team."
"We must hurry up and complete a round of hunting before noon."
"You will get some rest in the afternoon."
"I understand, sir..."
Zong Shen took out the [Wind, Fire and Thunder Trident], placed it on the ground, and looked into the distance against the strong wind.
He turned on the golden circle mark and screened out the winter snow monsters within a range of 10 to 15 kilometers.
After satisfying her desire to show off, Aisia returned to the loader mecha with satisfaction.
Zong Shen put away an idle loader mecha, and just like yesterday, he and Katis each drove one and headed 10.3 kilometers north of the territory.
…
It was half past eleven in the morning in the blink of an eye.
By this time, the gust of wind had subsided. After three rounds of hunting and two rounds of rest, they were now on their way back to their territory.
In these few hours, Zong Shen's main team hunted a total of 14 winter snow monsters.
The two wolf cavalrymen encountered an accident, and the wargs under their crotches were struck by ice arrows.
The LV40 Ice Arrow has a magic damage bonus of 3.0 times, and one blow caused these wargs to lose more than 300 health points.
One of the wargs had its right hind leg almost completely torn off.
Another warg suffered a serious head injury and was dying on the spot.
Even if these two wargs were cured, they would still be left with irreversible disabilities.
Fortunately, the wolf warriors were not injured, in order to take their feelings into consideration.
Zong Shen took out the spare [Transport Sled] from the storage compartment, dragged it by the loader mecha, and returned to the territory with the two injured wargs.
In this short period of time, Zong Shen's legion members lost three members.
They were all killed by the winter snow monster.
The thickness of the snow today is much thicker than yesterday, which caused the speed of the loader mecha to drop a lot.
When Zong Shen arrived in response to the call for help, those territories had been completely destroyed.
Zong Shen could only accept the inheritance they left, which was not a large amount of resources.
This challenge is also a kind of screening and elimination of lords.
Other legion members also began to fight against the winter snow monster one after another.
You can basically win the battle, but of course some losses are inevitable.
When Zong Shen returned to the territory, Doris had also rushed back first.
Doris' performance in the past two days was very conservative. They killed a total of 6 winter snow monsters today.
Although the number of kills was far less than that of Zong Shen's main team, it was still a solid victory.
There were no casualties in their unit today.
From a certain perspective, she did even better than Zong Shen.
Now the wolf cavalry team has suffered damage, and the two wolf cavalry warriors have lost their wargs.
The two injured wargs received life-restoring treatment from the Druid of the Claw as soon as they returned to their territory.
Zong Shen fed some more Moon God Spring, shaved off the hair near the wound, and bandaged the warg with a [Styptic Bandage].
The two wargs were saved their lives, but they would not be able to return to the battlefield in the future.
Without the wolf, the wolf cavalry's combat effectiveness would be cut in half.
This is a problem that needs to be solved by him.
In addition, among the captive warriors Vereesa rescued when she was in Odo Village.
There are also more than a dozen wolf riders who have lost their wargs.
These soldiers are still in the living area and cannot regain their combat effectiveness.
Those sabers, leather armor, and helmets are relatively easy to obtain, but wargs are indeed a problem.
What they are riding is the [Second-Level Prairie Giant Wolf], which is equivalent to the little leader of the prairie wolf group.
Both its attack power and body size are larger than those of ordinary prairie wolves.
He looked at the two wargs who were whimpering easily and fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, he thought of a building!
This building is obtained together with the [Magic Palace].
Just because the resources required for construction are relatively large, and most of them are mid-level materials, it has not been built. Now it is time for Mariel to start preparing for the construction.
In addition, the [100-kilometer level teleportation array] also needs to be prepared more intensively.
When he checked the storage box last night, he discovered that there were a lot more rune-type materials.
Obviously, Mariel has put a lot of thought into this aspect of the construction of the territory.
