Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing From a Rundown Yard

Chapter 358 Mine Placement, Coming to Sitano 【Subscription】

Quinnir's tone was more serious this time.

Almost in a half-command tone, he instructed Harold.

At the same time, he was also preparing to report this matter to the higher-ups in the giant city.

This situation is too abnormal, especially after the tragic victory in Odo Village, Quinnir has become more cautious and careful.

Hearing the words, Harold put a fist on his left heart and bowed slightly towards Quinnir.

General giant cities are often controlled by earls or marquis.

This has something to do with the size of the giant city and the strength of the family behind the high-level nobles.

The Rentax giant city can be ranked in the middle and upper scale among the giant cities of the Avalon Kingdom.

The biggest factors that determine the size of a giant city are firstly population, secondly taxation level, and then military strength.

The giant city also needs to pay taxes to the three imperial cities. The imperial city is not only a super city unit larger than the giant city, but also the administrative center of the kingdom.

One of the three imperial cities is the main imperial city, which is controlled by the contemporary king of Avalon. It is the place where members of the royal family live, and it is also the real central city.

There are also two auxiliary imperial cities, which are controlled by the two grand dukes of the Pendragon royal family, which also have a very detached status.

Except for the main line of the royal family itself.

Those branches of Pendragon also have great power in the kingdom, and their status is second only to the kingdom family of the main royal family.

In addition, there are many kingdom families, such as Baron Bezos of Bosbon, which is also from the Chebman family, a small and medium-sized kingdom family.

Because the country is too vast, this gives the soil for the development of the kingdom family.

There are hundreds of thousands of nobles and nobles registered in the entire kingdom.

Of course, not all nobles have fiefs that can be in charge.

Most of them just have their own industries and hold certain positions in the local area.

Like Quinnir himself, the squadron commander of the Dragonborn Knights.

At the same time, it also has its own mansion in the giant city of Rentax.

Outside the city there are large arable land and cattle and sheep pastures.

Moreover, he shoulders public office, and there are many stipends issued by the kingdom.

All this gave him the foundation of a prosperous life.

Moreover, the materials in the giant city are extremely rich, the commerce is particularly developed, and the circulation of a large number of materials improves the quality of life.

In terms of enjoyment alone, Quinnir is much more comfortable than those nobles of the state city.

After the crusade had dealt with the situation on the ground, they began to arrange for people to erect a hanging basket next to the well, ready to dig the well.

Although they don't know what's in the underground well, what can make the Church of Calamity Raven attach so much importance must be checked repeatedly.

...

The aftermath of Odo Village on this side has not yet subsided.

On the other side, after more than an hour of trekking, Zong Shen and the others had already led the team to the mine.

Along the way, he deliberately did not fully follow the guide's navigation, and walked north for a while before heading west, because the lord's territory branch in the north was relatively sparse.

In this way, the risk of being discovered by other lords can be reduced to a certain extent.

There were hardly any twists and turns along the way, and it was very smooth to arrive at the periphery of the ruins of the mine.

A load-bearing mech stopped at the periphery, and all the kobolds walked down from the cargo hold.

Zong Shen put away the load-bearing mecha and rode Bajie through the ruins to the outside of the mine.

The temporary illusion magic that was placed at the door has completely disappeared after the time limit has expired.

He carefully observed around the mine and found no sign of anyone coming in or out.

Then he took out the magic flashlight, turned on the second level of brightness, and walked into the mine first.

Zong Shen looked at the dust-covered ground and found no other fresh footprints.

It can be basically concluded that no one has discovered this place during this period of time.

The spider web monsters had already been wiped out by Zong Shen, and the remaining spider web monsters had all fled the mine and dared not return here.

As long as the outside is safe, there are basically no problems in the mines in this area.

The rest only needs to explain that Dutra was careful when leading the kobolds to mine the ore.

Going forward all the way, and soon returned to the warehouse area on the left side of the mine, where the original Kobold tribe was located.

In addition to the warehouses, there is also an abandoned large ore refinery.

Zong Shen found a small open space near here.

Start placing [Ore Refinery (Blue)], this thing is a complete building, no need to spend materials, it will start to build automatically after Zong Shen has placed the phantom.

This [Ore Refinery] covers an area of ​​120 square meters, with only two sheds and a few refining piles. It is a small refinery and can refine the mined rough ore, increasing the yield by 20%.

This refinery can also be regarded as a functional building, which is just right to be placed in the mine.

However, it does not belong to the territory of the territory, the buildings cannot be moved, and they cannot be repaired after being damaged.

"Dutra, this ore refinery must be optimistic."

"It can't be repaired now if it's broken."

Zong Shen called Dutra over and pointed to the refinery.

"Don't worry, my lord, we will definitely defend it with our lives."

After all, kobolds are cave creatures. After returning to the underground environment such as mines, all kobolds are very excited. This is their original home.

Those simple sheds have not been demolished, it can be said that they are ready to live.

Zong Shen reached out and patted Dutra on the shoulder, and used a leather water bag to evenly distribute some [Lunar Spring] to them.

During this period of time, Zong Shen's treatment of kobolds can only be regarded as quite satisfactory.

There is neither discrimination nor special preferential treatment.

And the performance of the kobolds is also considered qualified, and they are not lazy in their usual work, nor do they deliberately do things.

It is said that kobolds are cunning, but the group of kobolds under Zong Shen are relatively simple and easy to support.

In addition to the Moon God Spring, Zong Shen took out the two [Type II mine magic puppets (green)] that he had obtained in the mine warehouse before, which were specialized mine auxiliary magic puppets.

Possessing the two skills of drilling and mining, the overall efficiency of a mining magic puppet can be equal to twenty or thirty kobold miners.

The shiny big drill bit was much more powerful than a mining pick.

The big bucket on the other side can dig out a lot of ore at one time.

Although it takes a certain amount of magic energy, it is still very cost-effective.

Magic energy crystals, magic gems, and elemental crystals are all high-energy associated minerals of this comprehensive bonanza, and they can generally be harvested in mining.

Zong Shen left 500 primary magic energy crystals and 1 super magic energy crystal as energy reserves for magic puppets. When the mining of the mine is officially on track, he will be able to be self-sufficient.

The rest of the food and cold-proof materials are in Dutra's own storage compartment, so you don't have to worry about drinking water. They have lived here for decades, and there is a small underground water source in the mine, just enough for them. drink.

The kobold chief Dutra accompanied Zong Shen around several passage nodes in the mine.

When the manpower is sufficient in the future, the right side of the mine, which was once occupied by spider web monsters, can also be fully utilized. There used to be the office area and the dormitory area, and there are passages connected to the left side.

Definitely a great place to build as a secret stronghold.

However, there is no good way to defend Zong Shen in the mine.

It would be nice if it was within the territory, but it was far from the territory.

And Zong Shen did not have any defensive buildings and props that could target the terrain of the mine.

The only thing that can be used is the remaining defensive magic circles in the mine.

Zong Shen had previously obtained a mine sheriff's identity card, and he was able to mobilize the magic circle in the mine.

He also gave this identity card to the kobold chief Dutra.

Various rune magic circles are the best option for arming in the mine.

However, there are no relevant talents in the current territory.

The layout of the magic circle needs to outline the runes with various magic materials, and also needs to arrange the corresponding energy supply mechanism to provide energy for the magic circle, and to exert the corresponding magic through the combination of magic runes.

This is a bit like software programming in previous lives.

Zong Shen thought for a while, took out the communication crystal, and contacted Mariel who was planning the construction of the territory.

Ask her to go to the [Market] when she is free to see if there are any kind of illusion magic props that can be driven all the time by consuming mana.

Using illusions to cover the entrance of the cave can definitely confuse most of the lords who come to explore nearby.

After he made contact, the kobolds were all ready.

Dutra took out boxes of [refined mining picks] from the storage compartment, which was also one of the materials they brought.

Each kobold received one and carried it on his back. At the same time, Dutra also selected two kobold prophets to be responsible for driving the mining magic puppets.

The three crypt demons guard several tunnel nodes in the mine, serving as both guards and sentries.

In the end, Zong Shen handed a weight-bearer mecha to Dutra, and then took Vereesa and the others out of the mine.

Next, Zong Shen will prepare to rush to Bosbang. Before that, they will go to Sitano Village.

Because these two days have come to the day that Mr. Mars agreed before.

Before, Master Mars had promised to build a large ranch in Zongshen's territory.

Zong Shen is responsible for the protection of the land and the ranch, and Master Mars is responsible for funding.

It's time to make a trip to the village of Sitano and visit Master Mars.

As for the details of the cooperation, Zong Shen was not worried at all, after all, Mariel, the chief logistics officer of the territory, was his daughter.

As the thoughtful little padded jacket of Master Mars, Zong Shen believes that Mariel will work hard to benefit the territory.

Another point is that there is a dirt road outside the village of Sitano that leads directly to Bosang.

This dirt road is also a nearby business road. It connects more than a dozen villages along the way, and it can accommodate two carriages to pass side by side. Because of the long-term traffic, this road has been very compacted.

On this kind of road, the speed of both horses and horses, as well as on foot, is much higher than on the desolate grassland.

Going down this dirt road can also save a certain amount of time.

Among the accompanying heroes, only Luna has a mount, and neither Howie nor Vereesa have it.

Therefore, Zongshen put Howie on the horse of the immortal Lancer Cecilia.

Vereesa rides Bajie with him.

After all arrangements were made, Zong Shen led the team out again.

Go directly in the direction of Sitano Village.

...

After about half an hour, they arrived outside the village of Sitano.

It has not been here for many days, and this place has become a gathering point for lords to gather.

Zong Shen stood on a high place outside the village and glanced at it, and he could see the traces of many lords.

The most distinctive feature of these lords is that they often bring wolf cavalry with them.

The wolf cavalry is a characteristic unit in this area, and it is also a unit with better mobility.

When lords go out, the best option is to take them with them.

In addition, in terms of clothing, the general aborigines wear simple coarse linen clothes.

The equipment of the lord is more fancy, usually a variety of leather or light armor.

Wearing a variety of helmets of different colors, it looks neither like a mercenary nor a civilian, and some are nondescript.

Because for most of the current lords, it is not bad to be able to collect a set of equipment.

No matter where you are qualified to be picky, you don't care about what is beautiful or not.

How could Zong Shen use rare armor and legendary weapons as spares.

Of course, it is not ruled out that there are some old coin lords who entered the village after disguising themselves.

As far as Zong Shen could see, he saw five or six lords just at the entrance to the village.

The main purpose of these lords coming to Sitano Village is to sell and purchase supplies.

Exchange those animal furs you have accumulated on hand for continental dinars.

Then use dinars to purchase the necessary living materials.

This is the main source of income for the lords at present.

At the same time, many people want to try their luck in the village to see if they can receive the task.

During the opening of the Crypt Challenge, ordinary lords can almost be said to be unable to move.

If it weren't for the fact that the [Market] had almost become a standard building, so that the flow of materials between the lords would not be blocked, I am afraid that during the crypt challenge, the food problem alone would have stumped a large number of lords.

Especially after the end of the novice period, the difficulty of food storage has increased, and the food problem has become a lingering pain in the hearts of many lords.

These days, in addition to being able to eat fresh meat when hunting, they usually eat dried meat.

Even if some lords get blueprints for food storage buildings such as cold storage, they may not be able to build them.

This is the current status of most lords.

The lords who can survive till now have completed the basic goal, which is to survive.

But there is still a long way to go before the next goal.

The scale of most of the territories is still between more than 10 to 180 people. This is because the recruitment volume was opened for the last point exchange.

If they want to develop further, they still have a long way to go. This is the real water mill effort.

For these ordinary lords, Zong Shen is undoubtedly on a fast track!

There is one more chapter between 1am and 1:30am.

The typo in the message will be revised after the update.
