Chapter 148 - 148 New Lord Talent! War God's Blessing!
148 New Lord Talent! War God’s Blessing!
After Zhou Zhou brought his men back to Sand Gold City.
The sky was already completely dark.
Scarlet Fog gradually covered the entire world.
After Zhou Zhou returned, he asked Bai Yi and the others to bring the army to Sand Gold City to rest for the night. They would immediately rush back to Blazing Sun City before four o’clock the next morning.
Bai Yi and the others immediately accepted the order.
Zhou Zhou did not waste any time. He used Return To The City and returned to Blazing Sun City.
…
In the Blazing Sun City.
In the living room of the Lord’s residence.
Zhou Zhou appeared out of thin air.
He felt his body, spirit, and energy rapidly recovering and couldn’t help but nod slightly.
Originally, he was already a little tired after running around all day.
Now, he felt like he had returned to his peak.
Then, Zhou Zhou came to the territory stone tablet and took out the Regional Token of Thorn Dune, placing it directly above the stone tablet.
A suction force came from the territory stone tablet and sucked this Regional Token into the stone tablet.
The next second.
Rows of golden text appeared in front of him.
[Congratulations on obtaining a Black Iron-Tier Regional Token (Thorn Dune). You have officially become the Regional Lord of this region!]
[Thorn Dune (Black Iron-Tier) has been added to your regional territory!]
[You have obtained a Regional Treasure Chest! (Exclusive to Thorn Dune)]
Zhou Zhou opened his Regional Territory column.
[Regional Territory: Blazing Sun Desert (Black Iron-Tier), Sand Gold Land (Black Iron-Tier), Thorn Dune (Black Iron-Tier)]
He nodded, satisfied.
Then, Zhou Zhou opened the Regional Treasure Chest.
Inside was a familiar yellow package.
[Item Name: Thorn Dune Exclusive Resource Pack]
[Item Level: Black Iron-Tier]
[Item Effect: After opening it, you can obtain 50,000 units of stone, 50,000 units of wood, 50,000 units of metal, 50,000 units of fine sand, 100 Gradeless “Sand Corpse Summoner Class Change Certificate”!]
[Item Description: Black Iron-Tier Area Exclusive Resource Pack! After opening it, you can obtain a large number of basic resources and some Area Exclusive Resources!]
“That’s it?”
Zhou Zhou was a little disappointed.
Wasn’t this the same thing as the Regional Treasure Chest in the Blazing Sun Desert?
The Sand Crystal had just become the “Sand Corpse Summoner Class Change Certificate”.
He shook his head.
It seemed that something as good as the Golem Lair was just a special situation.
After using it, he took out the Green Bronze-Tier Scarlet Lord Talent Sphere.
“Let’s see what this Green Bronze-Tier Lord Talent is.”
Zhou Zhou was really looking forward to it.
He looked over.
A text notification appeared.
[Do you want to purify it?]
“Yes!”
Zhou Zhou said.
The next second.
A golden light flashed on the Scarlet Lord Talent Sphere.
Then its message changed.
[Treasure Name: Lord Talent Sphere— Blessing of the Ten Gods —Blessing of the War God]
[Treasure Grade: Green Bronze-Tier]
[Treasure Effect: After absorbing it, the Lord will have the Green Bronze-Tier Lord Talent—Blessing of the Ten Gods: Blessing of the War God!]
[Treasure Description: A Lord Talent Sphere purified by the Supreme Resistance. After absorbing it, you can obtain a Green Bronze-Tier Lord Talent.]
“Blessing of the Ten Gods?”
“I think I’ve heard of this talent from other Lords.”
Zhou Zhou raised his eyebrows.
However, the Blessing of the Ten Gods he had heard of was not the blessing of the War God, but the blessing of wisdom, creation, and life.
Furthermore, different Lords had different levels of blessings.
He was at the Green Bronze-Tier.
The highest level he had heard of was the blessing of the Diamond-Tier Creation God.
It was said that it could greatly increase the breakthrough speed of Lifestyle Professionals and had a certain chance of developing new Life Profession items.
The other party seemed to have joined the Military Industrial Alliance and was a big shot there.
Zhou Zhou was deep in thought.
Since it was the Blessing of the Ten Gods, there were probably six of such Gods left.
However, he did not know who those six were.
Then, Zhou Zhou stopped thinking and chose to absorb it.
The next second.
This Green Bronze-Tier Lord Talent Sphere immediately turned into countless Bronze-colored light spots and surged into his glabella.
Zhou Zhou closed his eyes.
A moment later.
He re-opened his eyes again after some time.
Then, he immediately opened his Lord’s personal information.
His Lord Talent column had been updated again!
[Lord Talent: 100% drop rate (Mythical-Tier—Unique), Gnome Alchemy Workshop (Green Bronze-Tier), Monster Ranch (White Silver-Tier), Incite Defection (Green Bronze-Tier), Peace And Prosperity (Diamond-Tier), Return To The City (Black Iron-Tier), Mysterious Caravan (Yellow Gold-Tier), Master Thief’s Robbery Gloves (Legendary-Tier), Blessing of the Ten Gods—Blessing of the War God (Green Bronze-Tier)]
“My ninth Lord Talent!”
Zhou Zhou nodded in satisfaction.
Then, he immediately opened the details of the talent.
[Lord Talent: Blessing of the Ten Gods—Blessing of the War God (Green Bronze-Tier)]
[Blessing of the Ten Gods—Blessing of the War God: The War God, one of the ten Chief Gods under the Supreme Will, has blessed you and your Military Professionals. You and your Military Professionals will receive an additional 200% promotion energy after killing the enemy!]
Zhou Zhou’s eyes widened.
This was a Green Bronze-Tier Lord Talent?!
Obtaining an additional 200% promotion energy, didn’t that mean that the benefits of the promotion energy in a battle would directly triple?
This could be said to have directly increased the strength of him and his soldier types by 300%!
To the Lords of the high continents, any external means were naturally not as important as strength!
In Zhou Zhou’s eyes,
The blessings of the War God were much more practical than the blessings of other Gods.
“Good Lord Talent!”
“In the future, I won’t need to upgrade the Lord Talent Crystal Fragment to Incite Defection.”
“I’ll just upgrade it!”
Zhou Zhou immediately made a decision.
Compared to Incite Defection, he still preferred the blessings of the War God that could increase his strength.
He looked at the Lord Talent Crystal Fragment he had.
After obtaining Ah Tu’s Lord Talent Crystal Fragment not long ago,
He now had a total of:
74 Black Iron-Tier Lord Talent Crystal Fragments!
53 Green Bronze-Tier Lord Talent Crystal Fragments!
Three Yellow Gold-Tier Lord Talent Crystal Fragments!
Two Legendary-Tier Lord Talent Crystal Fragments!
“I still need 47 Green Bronze-Tier Lord Talent Crystal Fragments or five White Silver-Tier Lord Talent Crystal Fragments.”
Zhou Zhou was deep in thought.
This request was not difficult to achieve.
Now, he was attacking the Scarlet Lord’s territory faster and faster.
At his speed.
In just a few days, he would probably be able to gather them after attacking a few more ownerless Black Iron-Tier regional territories.
At this thought, he stopped thinking about it.
Then, he walked out of the Lord’s residence to find Zhao Changshou and ask him where the Imperial Ancestral Temple was.
However, just as he walked out of the door, a woman’s voice came from behind him.
“Are you the Lord of The Blazing Sun?”
Zhou Zhou was stunned.
He turned to look.
He saw a tall woman in a holy white gorgeous dress. She had a pretty face and a resplendent white crystal at her glabella and was standing not far away and looking at him.
Beside her was a maid in white. She bowed slightly to him and looked up at him curiously.
“And you are?”
Zhou Zhou was a little surprised.
“I am the princess of the Aurora Kingdom.”
“My name is Li Ya.”
“I’m here to pay my respects to the Lord of The Blazing Sun. I came with my father’s greetings.”
She said politely.
“Welcome, welcome.”
“I’m sorry.”
“I’ve been busy the entire day today and have just returned.”
Zhou Zhou said.
“As a Lord chosen by the Supreme Will, it’s natural for you to be busy every day. Please don’t feel embarrassed about this.”
Li Ya looked at Zhou Zhou in agreement.
Zhou Zhou was stunned for a moment before he laughed.
“It’s cold outside. Let’s enter the residence first if you don’t mind.”
He said.
Li Ya nodded.
Zhou Zhou brought the two of them back to his Lord’s residence again, and sat down in the hall.
After chatting for a while, Li Ya took out a contract.
“Father heard that the Lord of The Blazing Sun is very interested in our kingdom’s Aurora Crystal.”
“That’s why my father specifically asked me to bring this Aurora Crystal transaction contract and give it to the Lord.”
“With this contract, my Lord, can purchase Aurora Crystals of Yellow Gold-Tier and lower from any Yellow Gold-Tier or above regional territories in the Aurora Kingdom.”
After she finished speaking, in order to avoid Zhou Zhou’s misunderstanding, she explained apologetically,
“It’s not that my father is stingy and doesn’t want to sell Aurora Kingdom Crystals of Yellow Gold-Tier and above.”
“Your Lordship also knows that in our High Continent, the probability of extracting items after a life form dies is extremely small.”
“Normally speaking, only the Mist Cores can be extracted. Most of the other items won’t be extracted.”
“It’s the same for the Aurora Crystals.”
“In addition, our Aurora Kingdom can only build a White Platinum-Tier Advance Grade Aurora Kingdom Tower at most. Therefore, even for our Aurora Kingdom, White Platinum-Tier Aurora Crystals are already considered extremely top-notch and rare resources.”
“We still have to use these to deal with the Tahan Kingdom, so it’s not convenient for us to sell White Platinum-Tier Aurora Crystals to the Lord.”
Zhou Zhou acknowledged.
He remembered that the drop rate of Aurora Crystals was 10%.
Which meant…
Only one in every 10 Aurora Race of White Platinum-Tier would drop a White Platinum-Tier Aurora Kingdom Crystal after they pass on.
The Aurora Kingdom had to rely on these White Platinum-Tier Aurora Crystals to build the Aurora Kingdom Tower to defend the entire Aurora Kingdom.
The consumption of Aurora Crystals was unimaginable.
Therefore, he did not feel that there was anything wrong with them cherishing the White Platinum-Tier Aurora Crystal so much.
“Your Highness, you don’t have to do this.”
“The drop rate of Aurora Crystals is indeed low.”
“If the Aurora Kingdom needs Aurora Crystals in the future, you can look for me. Perhaps I can help.”
Zhou Zhou said.
However, was the White Platinum-Tier Aurora Kingdom’s drop rate low in front of his King of Loots?
He could directly extract Diamond-Tier Aurora Kingdom Crystals for the other party, let alone White Platinum-Tier Aurora Kingdom Crystals!
When Li Ya heard Zhou Zhou’s words, she looked at him blankly.
You can help?
But aren’t you the one who needs the authority to trade Aurora Crystals?
Zhou Zhou faced the doubt in her eyes with a mysterious smile.
Actually, under normal circumstances, he would not say that he would take the initiative to help.
However, this princess came with good intentions. Her attitude and etiquette made Zhou Zhou feel very comfortable.
Give me a peach and I give you a white jade for friendship.
Zhou Zhou would naturally repay her kindness.
Even though Li Ya did not know what Zhou Zhou meant by help, she could hear the good intentions in his words. This made her smile.
“In addition to the transaction of the Aurora Crystals, my father also promised my Lord that he could make a request.”
“He’ll grant it as long as it’s within his power.”
Li Ya said.
“This is His Majesty’s kindness.”
“I need time to think.”
Zhou Zhou thought for a while and did not expect to make any requests.
“Okay.”
“I’ll stay in my Lord’s territory for three days.”
“You can tell me when you have thought it through.”
Li Ya said.
Zhou Zhou acknowledged.
Then, the two of them chatted happily for a while before Li Ya left with the maid on the pretext that it was inconvenient to disturb them in the middle of the night.
Zhou Zhou sent her out of the residence and went to look for Zhao Changshou himself.
