After much deliberation and weighing, Zong Shen finally decided to choose the reopening plan provided by [Alternate Choice Ⅲ].

A real man has to reopen without fear!

He doesn't know if his reopening will affect the defense challenges of other lords, but this is not something that his sect needs to consider, and he also believes that even if there are problems, the lord system can be solved satisfactorily.

"It's up to you, life... Bah... This challenge is reopened!"

Zong Shen was a little inexplicably excited for some reason. After confirming the alternate choice, he didn't hesitate too much, and made a decisive choice directly.

As his thoughts were confirmed, new hints appeared immediately.

【Selection completed】

[Alternate Choice Ⅲ: Challenge Restart]

【Restarting the challenge for you】

…

After the subtitles appeared, everything before Zong Shen's eyes disappeared, and he was silent in the endless darkness.

I don't know how long it has passed, but when he regained his sight again, he had already appeared on the tower of the lord's fortress, standing on the side of the tower and looking into the distance.

It's just that the scene in the distance is very blurry, like a closed-circuit TV with poor signal constantly flickering inexplicable lines.

[Territory backtracking simulation completed]

[Current status, challenge countdown 23:45:00]

[The state of the fog of war is building]

【Shadow is being laid】

[Replicas are being released]

[The time-space line continues to be corrected]

[The causal derivation template is included, and on the premise that you are not affected by your actions, the dark orc side will have a 99.9999...% derivation probability to evolve according to the situation and strategy of the previous round]

[Rules are being consolidated]

[Field Equal Level Strength: Dimensional World]

[Due to the re-opening of this challenge, the defensive challenge timeline has been partially disturbed, and the final settlement of all rewards will be postponed for 12 hours. For details, please refer to the notification after the end of the challenge]

[After the laying is completed, the time stop will end in 30 seconds]

…

Zong Shen looked at the reminder floating in front of him, thinking in his heart, thirty seconds passed quickly.

All the prompts disappeared, and the restraint similar to the time-stop effect completely disappeared.

The countdown on the top of the head at this moment is exactly as the reminder said, exactly [23:45:00].

This time period is also when the dark orc side deploys troops and camps.

The surrounding area is being shrouded in a thick fog of war.

Mariel, Howie, and Vereesa are sitting in the [Commander Tower (orange)]. According to various information, Mariel will try to send out scouts.

But now that Zong Shen has undergone reopening, he can omit some redundant steps for obtaining information.

He leaned against the tower, took out the [communication crystal] with the breeze blowing across the territory, and dialed the number of the crystal that belonged to Vereesa.

The communication was quickly connected, and Vereesa's clear voice could be heard, and the reports of Howie and Mariel could be vaguely heard.

"My lord, what's the matter with you?"

She asked concisely, still in such a vigorous and decisive manner, without the slightest sloppiness.

"Contact Reese Ulysses immediately and ask her to bring you here, I have something important to explain to you!"

"Also tell the front line, don't send any scout troops, it's not necessary, I already have the corresponding information, I will go to the command room in person later, and you have other important things to do!"

"I understand my lord!"

After a simple exchange, Zong Shen hung up the [Communication Crystal], and about three or four minutes passed.

The top of the tallest tower in the lord's fortress was shining with blue light, and the advanced space mage Reese Ulysses appeared beside Zong Shen with Vereesa.

"grown ups!"

"grown ups…!"

Two voices of greeting came one after another.

Reese Ulysses's attitude towards Zong Shen has improved a lot after her talent was advanced, and her lifespan has also improved, but her aging appearance has not been alleviated, but she can better perform her duties as a "worker" in the space .

"Vereesa, when the countdown reaches below 23:00:00, the preparation phase of the attacker will end, and the fog of war will dissipate. At that time, I need you to go to the south of the territory."

"There is an island in the middle of the lake, dive into the bottom of the lake and help me get this thing!"

As he said that, he took out the [Initial Arcane Crystal Fragments] in a frozen state from the storage compartment.

Zong Shen chose to restart, but all the items he got from the last challenge were kept, including [Initial Arcane Crystal Shards]. As long as he gets another shard in this field, he will have three pieces in his hand. Fragments are ready to use.

Vereesa glanced at the arcane crystal shards in the ice, and then nodded.

According to the timeline and circumstances known to Zong Shen.

It is currently still in the [offensive party preparation] stage where neither side can leave the camp for operations.

The so-called preparation is actually some sorting work after the release. When the countdown drops below 23:00:00, it's time for the three major clans, the Demon Blood, Black Rib, and Red Bone clans to send out test troops.

He had to stay and sit in command to wipe out this wave of vanguard faster and better, and at the same time, Vereesa could go to the dark lake by herself.

According to Zong Shen's knowledge, the [Mirror Mirror Shadow Demon Scouts] ambush in that lake were only arranged later.

Blackwater Sword Master Lickfire Calrig has a deep scheming mind. Its initial layout is quite wide, and the scout teams it sends are spread all over its own territory, as well as camps of other clans.

Therefore, Vereesa had a certain time difference to retrieve the [Initial Arcane Crystal Fragment] before the [Mirror Shadow Demon Scout] team established a hidden sentry there.

Zong Shen, who owns three [Initial Arcane Crystal Shards], even if he does not unblock [Solomon's Forbidden Disk] and releases the great demon Artorius to attack the fire, even if the strength of the dark orc remains unchanged from the previous round. It doesn't matter if Carrig and Mogroga Heijin are restrained.

With the power of arcane crystal shards, he can easily destroy the vitality of the dark orcs.

This is not a difficult task for Zong.

After receiving the order, Vereesa bowed and saluted, indicating that she understood.

"By the way, let Rhys Ulysses take you there."

Zong Shen added a sentence, then looked at Ruisi herself, took out a few excellent grade [Magic Power Crystal (Blue)] from his storage box and threw them at her.

"Reese will give you these as an extra reserve of magic power, make sure to go and return quickly."

"If you find any danger, return immediately, go and don't fight in place, all situations are waiting for me to decide!"

Zong Shen said the last sentence to Vereesa and Reese Ulysses at the same time.

The two nodded solemnly. They both understood that the task arranged by the lord must be very important.

After he finished explaining, he looked up at the countdown timer above again, reckoning that there was still enough time left for Vereesa to do something, so he explained again.

"By the way, let's go and send 500 farmers to the machinery workshop to assist Iron Hand Barenk."

"By the way, tell the guy he'll be busy soon."

"Okay, let's go now."

After Zong Shen finished speaking, he waved his hand.

With the help of the space mage Reese Ulysses, Vereesa didn't need much effort to complete these tasks.

The two resigned, and disappeared in place while the blue light flashed.

The flash mastered by the space mage is to some extent more convenient than [Wandering].

The former only needs to consume magic points, while the latter has a 5-minute cooldown period every ten times it is used.

But [Wandering Wandering] is one of the several skills attached to the item [Wandering Feather (Golden)], which is suitable for carrying around and is still very valuable to Zong, because he can't bring Ruisi · Ulysses goes to battle and adventure, but he can always take 【Wandering Feather (Golden)】with him.

After Vereesa and Reese Ulysses left, Zong Shen took a deep breath. This reopening can complete many layouts first.

While the fog of war has not dissipated, he has to go to [Commander Jian Tower (orange)] in person. There will be no more [Fel Energy Devourer · Old Wounded] in this reopened challenge, so he There is no need to worry about the problem of the evil energy body stealing the house.

Thinking of this, he launched [Wandering] and left the place, and appeared under the [Commander Tower (orange)] in the next second. He couldn't flash directly to the command room because the force inside was composed of elemental magic. The field cuts off the long-distance movement of space.

He had also been here in the previous challenge, so it was no stranger to it.

Stepping into the tower, there is a circular upward staircase along the wall, but Zong Shen did not choose to take the stairs, but went directly to the right side of the building. There is a switch with the same color as the wall. After pressing it, the ground will Lift slowly.

Riding on the lifting platform, Zong Shen quickly reached the interior of the command room, and the one belonging to Vereesa was vacant among the three workbenches.

Mariel and Howie are quickly switching the screens that [Commander Jian Tower (orange)] is connected to from various sentry towers [Eye of True Sight].

"grown ups!"

…

With the access of the lifting platform, both of them noticed Zong Shen's arrival, and they all got up and saluted.

Zong waved his hand indifferently.

Immediately began to explain the plans and arrangements behind.

"The dark orcs will send out outpost troops later, and I need you to inform Joan of Arc and Aishia to lead the Holy Light Priest team to the machinery workshop ahead of time."

"Also, I have something to tell you to Iron Hand Barenke through the voice transmission of the command tower..."

…

It took Zong Shen more than 20 minutes to arrange the follow-up situation properly, including how to prevent Tie Zi from being killed by the bomb, as well as the follow-up deployment and the upcoming outpost air battle arrangements.

Mariel and Howie delivered his orders through a voice system similar to a district radio.

At this time, Iron Hand Barenke, who was rushing to make items in the workshop, had just listened to the instructions from Lord Vereesa, wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked out of the workbench.

It looked at the 500 farmers standing in place and whispering in the yard, a little puzzled.

Because it doesn't think these farmers can help. The work in the mechanical workshop requires certain professional skills, and it is usually responsible for the mechanical engineering apprentices it has trained during this period. There is no shortage of manpower. After all, there is not much work in the territory right now.

This group of farmers without any training in mechanical engineering seems useless here.

It took off the newsboy cap and protective glasses that were on its head, scratched the smooth top of its head, and finally did not raise any doubts in front of Vereesa.

Since this is the Lord Lord's arrangement, then it believes that there must be some deep meaning in it.

After thinking about it, it turned its head and shouted loudly.

"Steelfire Pierce!"

As its deputy, the former Goblin Ripper driver Steelfire Pierce quickly ran out of the workshop.

"Master Iron Hand..."

It nodded in greeting, its gloved hands smeared with black oil.

Now that he has left the combat post and joined the mechanical workshop in the territory, it is not a bad arrangement for the two cowards, Oil Ji Carlos.

"Settle down these farmers."

"Don't let them run around, and don't put them in the workshop."

"If these silly and silly guys are allowed to enter the workshop, I'm afraid they will damage the equipment!"

Ironhand Barenke put on his hat again, and said in the style of a master with his hands behind his back.

At this time, the skirmish has not yet ended, and it has not yet obtained the research samples and mechanical parts of the [Eternal Night IV Flyer]. Naturally, it cannot understand Zong Shen's intention to suddenly send 500 farmers to the workshop as labor.

After speaking, it walked into the workshop.

War belongs to war, what it has to do is to be responsible for the job at hand.

…

In [Commander Jianta (orange)], Zong Shen, who explained most of the follow-up precautions to Mariel and Howie, has left the command room.

After restarting the challenge, he knew everything about the events in the initial stage of the challenge.

At this time, the countdown in the sky has become [23:09:37], and the fog of war will dissipate in less than ten minutes. He stands beside Xiao Heizi, watching it gnaw with reluctance. Frozen giant catfish just out of the freezer.

The dagger-like sharp teeth rubbed and cut ~lightnovelpub.net~ on the frozen rock-hard catfish, making an obscure "creaking" sound.

Ice **** soaked in catfish blood splashed in all directions.

After seeing Zong Shen's arrival, Xiao Heizi propped himself up with his tail as he did in the previous challenge, and his thin and ferocious face showed a humanized "sorrowful" expression.

As usual, Zong Shen proposed [Dragon Slaying Epee Sword (Golden)], using the big sword to reason, climbed up on its back and sat cross-legged, said a heartfelt speech as usual, promised to help it capture the Black Wing Tyrant alive, and gained 8 points After gaining favorability, Zong felt the beauty of reopening.

Waiting for Little Heizi to finish eating the big frozen catfish, his hunger and fullness returned to a reasonable range.

The countdown just came to 【22:59:17】.

The fog of war surrounding the territory quickly dissipated.

Just like the curtain in the theater, the good show begins after it is drawn!

[Red Gold Barrier Shield] rises, as if a large white bowl is buckled on the territory!
