Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

Chapter 954: The cornucopia of the Lord of Greed, t

"You know the Lord of Greed?"

Zong Shen asked tentatively.

As the de facto first lord, Alpha's erudition is beyond doubt.

Moreover, being able to exist for such a long time with such a special identity is enough to prove that Alpha itself is not simple.

Presumably he should know something about the Lord of Greed.

After all, these items related to the Lord of Greed all flow into the hands of the contemporary Lord through the channels of the Lord System!

It is absolutely impossible to say that the lord system knows nothing about the Lord of Greed!

Zong Shen discovered early on that in the channels of the lord system, some equipment and items left by the ancient powerhouses were often placed.

Including but not limited to treasure chests of all levels, announcement rewards, and challenge redemption.

It also proves that those strong men in the past are actually under the control of the lord system, and the legacy of the ancient strong men is more like an indirect inheritance.

Coupled with the endless experience of the lords of the endless continents, from the founding of the country to its destruction.

It makes this piece of land seem to be a hodgepodge.

There are countless relics and legacy of the strong, they are like seeds, until the last moment, no one knows what kind of fruit they can bear.

Zong Shen didn't know why he thought of these things in cooking.

Obviously this series is like the process of Genesis.

The mysterious supreme being is adding materials to the cauldron of the Endless Continent.

All kinds of delicious auxiliary materials are piled up, spices and seasonings emerge in endlessly.

The lords of each batch are the fresh ingredients of the current period, but if they cannot withstand the test of cooking over high fire, they will eventually become the bottom of the side dishes.

In the future, the supreme existence will continue to add main materials.

Until a certain batch of main dishes is amazing enough, then a good meal will be freshly cooked.

But with so many elements piled up together, who knows the final result?

Zong Shen raised his brows and eyes a little thoughtfully, thinking about this kind of thought was a bit frightening, man, I still can't think too much.

Fortunately, Alpha's response pulled back his thoughts in time.

I saw Alpha nodded as a matter of course.

"certainly."

"The Lord of Greed is a big man."

"It is a top powerhouse who has accumulated wealth and pursued profit and greed to the extreme, and has already touched the field of the relevant theocracy."

"Some small things like pots and pans that he left behind should still be circulated in the Endless Continent and controlled by the supreme manager."

Alpha shrugged and blinked again, indicating that he couldn't say more.

Zong Shen nodded, indicating that he understood.

What theocracy, laws, supremacy, administrators, these things that the lords didn't know before, Zong Shen is even a little accustomed to it now.

It seems to have become the supreme old fritters in the lord.

It seems that Alpha should recognize the cornucopia in his hand.

Just when Zong Shen wanted to pick up the basin and ask him what the four words meant, the strategy module finally came to fruition.

(According to the query and combined translation of multiple text systems

The meaning of these four words: greedy for profit

Judging from the existing data, it used to be the motto accompanying the rise of the Lord of Greed, and it was also the interpretation of the essence of the Lord of Greed’s power)

"Greedy for profit..."

"It turns out that as long as you persistently pursue what you want, can you reach heights that ordinary people can't reach?"

"However, throughout the ages, countless epochs have changed, and countless dimensional worlds are full of flowers. I don't know how many greedy and profit-seeking characters have been born among them. I am afraid that this is the only one who can go to the extreme."

Zong Shen pondered carefully in his heart.

In fact, greed exists in the heart of all living beings.

This is true whether it is intelligent life or non-intelligent life, even small cells.

Devouring, growing, and taking are all the shadows of greed, and even the existence of life itself is closely related to greed.

From the perspective of human nature, the quality of greed is actually not bad.

Because life itself is inseparable from taking and plundering.

As an essence that relies on life and is closely related, greed is hard to say good or bad, at least in many ways, greed is the driving force.

Of course, excessive greed can also completely swallow rationality.

Zong Shen didn't understand this deeply, and he was just an ordinary person who was good at seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

There is no lofty heroism, let alone a profound philosophical mission.

His goal has always been pure, that is to live...to live well.

The appeal is not high, but it is extremely difficult to achieve it under such a situation.

Shaking his head, Zong Shen focused on the cornucopia in front of him.

Now that he knew that the Greedy Lord had a lot of background, he should have some expectations for the cornucopia in his hand, after all, it was an object he had exchanged for with real money and challenge points.

As for the experience, legacy, and thoughts of the Lord of Greed, it doesn't matter anymore.

If there is a destiny, I will definitely come into contact with related things again in the future.

After figuring this out, Zong Shen only felt enlightened.

Pursuing the secrets of the past is the instinct of most people, but excessive indulging in it may not lead to great gains. Some things should be kept in mind, and some things should go with the flow.

Seeing Zong Shen's eyes suddenly become clear, the corner of Alpha's mouth curled up into an imperceptible arc, he became more and more optimistic about Zong Shen!

In his opinion, not only is Zong Shen's own strength and development speed at a level that is difficult for the lords of the same period to reach, but his heart, experience, and open-mindedness are also first-class. Even if such a character is not the darling of the original world's will, You must be able to ride the wind and waves and show your ambitions!

Zong Shen didn't know that his evaluation in the heart of the mysterious businessman Alpha had further improved a lot. In fact, his open-mindedness and experience only came from the accumulation and understanding of information.

The more things you know, the greater the pressure on your shoulders, but at the same time, your mind will become more open-minded, and your horizons will be much broader.

When the lord of the same period was still worrying about self-protection, Zong Shen was already prying into the supreme secret, trying to find a way to break free from the shackles.

This is the gap, people are really different.

Different experiences, different insights, different breadth of information, and different stages of life will bring completely different hearts and perceptions.

The strategy module brings only information advantages.

But the impact of information is by no means as simple as it seems on the surface.

It is not just a process from learning to obtaining, but also a way for Zong Shen to quickly absorb information.

He finished his thinking and spiritual construction, and squinted his eyes at the cornucopia in front of him.

Gold subtitles emerged along with the system's item information introduction.

[Cornucopia of the Lord of Greed (Special)]

[Quality: Special]

[Active effect: Wealth increase (put in dinar or other materials of appropriate volume, double the amount can be poured out, this effect can only be used once every 168 hours)

Treasure surprise (you can get a treasure surprise every 720 hours, randomly get 99999~999999 dinars or items from the excellent level to the dazzling level VII)

Midas touch (Materials, equipment, and items of appropriate volume can be put in, and there is a 50% chance to make them gain quality improvement. This effect can only be used once every 720 hours)

Wealth traction (this effect can be activated once every 168 hours, and a treasure will be randomly pulled from within a radius of 100 kilometers into the cornucopia, including but not limited to dinars, equipment, accessories, magic oddities, and the volume cannot exceed the size of the cornucopia Volume, unable to forcibly pull items bound by shields, magic circles, and closed terrain)]

[Passive effect: Accumulate wealth and treasure (every second of life with a cornucopia is arrogant, and you will get 1 dinar every second)

Wealth is power (by donating to the cornucopia all wealth items of appropriate size, including dinars, jewelry, gems, etc., you will get a limited-time combat power blessing, the specific blessing ratio is 1% to 999%, and your own strength is different. The cost is also different)]

(The cornucopia of the Lord of Greed can help your wealth grow rapidly, and has the well-deserved function of gathering treasure and collecting wealth

This pot and your money bag are all things used by the Lord of Greed back then, so they have related ability effects

Compared with the money bag, the cornucopia is even more arrogant

From the moment you own it, every minute and every second your wealth is continuously increasing)

The Cornucopia does exactly what its name suggests.

Simple, rough, arrogant!

Leaving aside other effects for the time being, only the passive effect named [Gathering Wealth and Treasure] is full of arrogance.

Every second he gets 1 dinar.

That translates to 60 dinars per minute.

3600 dinars per hour.

86400 dinars per day.

2592000 dinars per month.

31104000 dinars per year!

The white **** pension party is ecstatic, this is much more arrogant than eating the [interest] given by the [Purse Bag of the Greedy Lord (orange)]!

Moreover, the wealth harvested through the effect of [Collect Wealth and Gather Treasures] can be stored in the money bag to earn interest, and the descendants are endless.

As long as Zong Shen can bear the loneliness, he can easily accumulate massive wealth!

As for the other effects, it is also quite arrogant.

[Wealth Increase] It is equivalent to turning one pot of money into two pots. In addition to dinars, those precious materials can also take effect, provided that they cannot be bigger than this pot.

[Treasure Gathering Surprise] is also a prostitution-type effect. A sum of dinars is randomly drawn, and there is a chance to get items whose quality level does not exceed the dazzling level VII.

[Tianshichengjin] can make the items put in it have a 50% chance of getting a quality upgrade, and you can try to change a bicycle into a motorcycle, and its effect does not limit the original level of the item, provided that the volume of the item cannot Exceeds the volume of the cornucopia.

The last item among the active effects, the [Wealth Traction] is even more domineering. It is no exaggeration to say that this is no different from Ming Qiang. Randomly pull some dinars or treasures from within a radius of 100 kilometers , although this effect is also random, but items that can be regarded as treasures by the cornucopia must be of a high level, even if they are not good enough, they can still draw a sum of dinars, which is not a loss anyway.

There are only two passive effects that come with it. In addition to the extremely arrogant [Gathering Wealth and Gathering Treasures], the effect called [Wealth is Power] is not simple.

From the literal meaning, it is not difficult for Zong Shen to see that this is a skill of "breaking money and eliminating disasters". The cornucopia provides a channel to gain temporary combat power by donating wealth, and the gain ratio ranges from 1% to 999%.

In other words, as long as Zong Shen is willing, he can get nearly ten times the enhancement!

And the amount of donated wealth depends on his basic strength.

This is also normal, the higher the basic strength, the higher the income from the increase, and the greater the price of wealth that needs to be dedicated!

From this point of view, although this effect cannot be prostituted for nothing, it is bound to be able to exert a miraculous effect when placed in some critical moments of life and death!

"Just tens of thousands of challenge points can be exchanged for such a good thing..."

"This deal is really **** money!"

Zong Shen couldn't help sighing in his heart.

Among other things, just the effect of [Gathering Wealth and Treasure] has already made a lot of money!

Even from a long-term perspective, the value of this cornucopia is no less than those demigod-level items!

"Then aren't other people's limited exchange items also very precious?"

"No, I remembered..."

Zong Shen was thinking about this, and suddenly remembered the system note that appeared when he opened the list of [Limited Exchange Types]:

[The limited items/categories/quantities available for this exchange category are determined by the lord’s comprehensive score. Each lord has exclusive limited items. Some lords will have multiple exchangeable items, and some lords will meet To the case where there are no redeemable items]

This note highlights the particularity of the [Limited Exchange Category] here at Alpha.

In other words, Zong Shen was able to exchange for the cornucopia because his own comprehensive score was enough to exchange for these items.

Secondly, it is not ruled out that it is because he has been in contact with items related to the Lord of Greed that he got the cornucopia.

In any case, this situation is a very good thing for Zong Shen.

He dismissed the hints and attribute list in front of him, and opened the storage compartment.

Both the lord and the recruited heroes have the privilege of carrying storage compartments, but there is still a big difference between the two.

The storage compartment of the former can not only be used for fast storage and storage, but also has the ability to collect dinars indefinitely. No matter what the denomination of dinars is, it can be collected and converted into a series of balance numbers.

Moreover, the lords can withdraw dinars of different denominations and quantities at any time according to their thoughts. Hero-level talents can also quickly collect dinars and convert them into balances, but there is a certain upper limit.

These are all things that Zong Shen knew before.

It is precisely because of this that he firmly believes that the emergence of the dinar, a universal currency, is definitely the handiwork of the lord system!

At this moment, the balance of dinars in his carry-on storage compartment is increasing bit by bit, slowly and steadily realizing wealth appreciation.

"It feels so good to make money even while sleeping!"

Zong Shen couldn't help sighing!

With a backhand, I put away [The Lord of Greed's Cornucopia (Special)].

The Alpha Temple is quite special. You cannot use any recruiting props here, even [Wealth Amplification] and [Treasure Gathering Surprise] cannot be activated.

It proves that this should be an independent restricted field.

He can only get the other effects of the cornucopia after the exchange is over.

After putting away the cornucopia, Zong Shen looked at another object floating in front of him. It was an oval mirror, about the size of a vanity mirror.

The movable type of the frame can change the mirror angle.

The bottom comes with a base, which can be placed on the ground or on the table stably.

The surface of the mirror is smooth and clean, but it is dark gray, unlike ordinary mirrors that can reflect people's shadows.

Zong Shen stared at the mirror, but felt a sense of depth that could not be seen through.

In addition, there is a carving of a long and narrow eye on the top and bottom of the frame.

Looking at it will produce a feeling of being alive.

These two carved eyes are like real eyes, giving Zong Shen a vague sense of peeping.

As for other aspects, there are no special features, and there are no too complicated patterns.

At this time, the mysterious businessman Alpha still did not forget his duty.

He began to speak out to introduce Zong Shen.

"This mirror has a very powerful auxiliary ability."

Hearing Alpha speak, Zong Shen kept nodding his head pretending to cooperate.

On the surface, he was listening to Alpha's introduction, but actually he was pondering and researching on his own, just listening to a few words by the way, and the real detailed research still depends on the strategy module.

But he is more of a referral service purchased with points, even if it is just a show, he can't be too unscrupulous in front of Alpha.

Regardless of how polite and respectful this mysterious businessman Alpha is on the surface, in fact Zong Shen knows very well that Alpha's means and strength are not something he can covet.

Even now that Alpha has the responsibility and is restricted and assigned by the lord system, Zong Shen does not dare to take it lightly, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

Alpha is in his own mysterious hall, and he can only vaguely perceive Zong Shen's vague will and mood. He can sense what Zong Shen is thinking about, but he doesn't know the specifics.

Here, Zong Shen will praise the lord system for protecting the privacy of personal thinking and will, according to what Alpha mentioned before.

There have been several generations of lords who were completely under the monitoring of thinking. However, the development progress of those generations was invisible and could not reach a certain height. Since then, the lord system no longer monitors thinking.

Once any intelligent life loses the freedom of thinking, it is equivalent to stifling future potential and creativity.

Seeing that Zong Shen didn't respond, Alpha then added.

"The function of the mirror of all phases is very simple."

"You can use it to check some situations."

"Including people or things."

"Of course, it cannot effectively observe areas with strong interference and magic array protection and shielding."

"But most places can use it for observation."

"The mirror will feed back the situation of the location you want to view in real time in the form of a real-time picture."

"As far as I know, its previous owner used its characteristics to peek into the privacy of many noble ladies..."

"Hohohohoho!"

"Of course, I believe you won't be so filthy. Its own strategic value and information acquisition value are far greater than this little desire for snooping."

When the mysterious businessman Alpha said this, he seemed to think of something interesting, and suddenly he laughed for a while.

Zong Shen understood, this mirror is a powerful monitor.

It reminded him of the legendary magic mirror.

Through the mirror, you can explore the situation in the world without leaving your home.

Of course, that kind of place that is really heavily guarded is definitely impossible to explore.

Places such as the royal palace and the castles and manors of the great nobles are all equipped with special means of shielding magic value and space interference to prevent spell prying and illegal space movement.

But even so, it also meant that most of the area could be under Zong Shen's supervision.

It's just that Zong Shen hasn't checked its attribute effects carefully yet.

For the time being, we don’t know how much the mirror’s detection range is and what the detection conditions are. If it is a wide range of search insights, an efficient retrieval mechanism is indispensable.

These doubts can only be answered by the strategy module.

Although Alpha is knowledgeable and his introduction is basically correct, he can't do it in such detail. Originally, the detailed usage methods and characteristics of the items need to be further explored by the lord, but Zongshen has a strategy module, which is equivalent to mastering the detailed instructions. Naturally, there is no such trouble.

Seeing that Zong Shen was indifferent and disapproving, Alpha didn't say anything more, just kept silent with a smile.

At this time, Zong Shen had already picked up the [Mirror of Ten Thousand Phases (Golden)], and looked at it carefully in front of his eyes.

Gold subtitles appear next to the mirror.

【Mirror of All Phases (Golden)】

[Quality: Epic Level]

[Active effect: Mirroring all aspects (relevant locations can be retrieved through the mind, the mirror will show the situation of the location in real time, lasting for 20 minutes, can penetrate non-magic influences and buildings, but cannot penetrate magic shields and magic For shields and strong interference areas, the maximum display range does not exceed the area of ​​30,000 kilometers around the user. After each time a location is displayed, it needs to be used at an interval of 24 hours. The depth of underground exploration is no more than 150 meters. The maximum exploration depth is no more than 4500 meters, the specific ground level of the exploration area shall be the standard)

The mark of the universal mirror (can mark up to 120 places or people, and has the investigation authority within a distance of 100,000 kilometers for the marked places and people. This skill has no cooldown and no limit, and the detection rules are basically the same as the mirror image)

Mirror link (it can generate a link with any mirror object. After the link is completed, it becomes a mirror. The main mirror and the mirror of Wanxiang can communicate, communicate and view each other at any time. The maximum effective link distance is 300,000 kilometers, the maximum number of mirrors that can be linked is 12, and the link has no cooling, but each time a contact is initiated, it takes a few seconds to wait)]

[Passive skill: Insight of the mirror (Holding the mirror of all phases can quickly connect to any mirror surface within one kilometer around you, and display the live scene corresponding to the mirror surface, the second is also effective for stealth skills with a level of no more than seven , but this effect will also be affected by magic interference, shielding and shielding)]

(If God gave you a pair of eyes that can see everything, don't just use it to peek up skirts—

— Great Philosopher, your most reliable strategy module says so

The effect of this mirror is extremely practical. Not all places will have magic interference effects or special magic shielding devices.

It endows a pair of eyes like a bird, allowing you to see a wider world and pictures

The three active effects are quite practical, covering the effects of directional reconnaissance, universal reconnaissance, and link communication

The passive effect is also not simple, it is equivalent to having a large group of mirror scouts within three kilometers around him

Every mirror will be your eyes

And the concept of mirror surface is not limited to mirrors.

Smooth ground, water surface, even wiped reflective armor, metal utensils, and even tableware such as spoons and forks may meet the link requirements of the mirror insight, and give you real-time feedback

That being said, you should be able to understand its value, right?

As for peeping or something, this strategy doesn’t think it’s necessary, you might as well just use [The Prophet’s Sharp Eyes] to attack it, of course, if you’re happy to peep, that’s up to you)

"so smart?"

"Isn't this equivalent to a super-precision spy satellite with built-in penetration?"

"Although it can't penetrate the area of ​​magic interference and shielding, such a function is already very outrageous!"

"Not to mention the super practical small-scale detection skill called [Mirror Insight]."

Zong Shen's eyes lit up, obviously interested in the [Mirror of All Phases (Golden)] in his hand.

Who doesn't want to have the ability to see everything?

It's a pity that this thing has strong restrictions on the exploration of ruins.

For example, it can only detect a depth of 150 meters below the ground level of the area, and most relics are in deeper formations.

Even for those shallow ruins, there is a high probability of magic interference.

Taking Zong Shen's first explored ruins, the demon hunter's temple and dungeon as an example, the entrance to the dungeon was blocked by a sarcophagus made entirely of high-quality [Magic Stone], and [Magic Stone] It is a kind of magic material, which naturally has magic veins, and is often used to build magic items and buildings.

It can also play the role of magic interference. Although the interference of [Magic Stone] is not strong, it is enough to affect the insight of [Mirror of All Phases (Golden)].

So it is not difficult to prevent being seen by [Mirror of All Phases (Golden)].

As long as you have the heart, most magic spying methods are difficult to achieve results.

But even with these basic limitations, the function of [Mirror of All Phases (Golden)] is amazing enough for Zong Shen.

When it comes to spying with magic power, Zong Shen remembered a very important thing.

That is, his territory has not yet installed magic interference devices.

This means that interested people can unscrupulously peep into his territory and any privacy!

[Mirror of All Phases (Gold)] is not the only means and props for detecting magic power. Similar means of spying can be said to emerge endlessly, but its observation distance is exaggerated. In fact, there are spells that specialize in the practice of detection spells. By.

There are also some magic wonders with effects similar to [Mirror of All Phases (Golden)].

Then Zong Shen should really be more vigilant in this regard, and can no longer be as foolish as before.

In fact, his territory has related isolation buildings.

For example, [Pillar of Red Gold Barrier (Golden)], in the state of opening [Red Gold Barrier Shield], not only has a defensive function, but also can isolate peeping and prohibit the enemy's space transmission, and detect non-own space fluctuations with active disturbance Ability.

However, if the [Red Gold Barrier Shield] is turned on normally, it will consume a certain amount of mana every moment. If it is turned on for a long time, the daily mana consumption will not be a small amount.

So it is only suitable for opening in wartime.

Under such circumstances, Zong Shen was going to get some magic interference devices.

Mana interference is not a complicated principle. It is essentially to disturb the magic power of elements within a certain range, making the elements chaotic and unable to be absorbed.

When a place is in a state of magic interference, space transmission and spellcasting will be affected, and at the same time, it can also isolate magic prying eyes, but it does not affect the normal physical vision. It is a very common passive security method.

Not to mention, even Bosbon and Baron Bezos' castles have similar layouts, which can be described as a "standard" behavior.

It is also time for Zong Shen to make up for the gap in this regard.

There is no need for more, he just needs to ensure that the important buildings and workshops in the lord's fortress and the core area are shielded and protected.

And you have to be aware that some workshops and buildings that involve magic power operations cannot interfere with magic power. You can only use other methods, such as using mid-to-high-end [magic stones]. peep.

Of course, there is actually a special anti-peeping building, but Zong Shen has not had the chance to get it.

In any case, he has noticed this matter, and will naturally prepare related measures next.

At worst, he would also walk into the castle by himself, or simply return to the state of riding a commuter within the territory. Movement efficiency is important, but safety and privacy are even more important.

Due to the influence of the mysterious palace, Zong Shen is unable to test its effect for the time being, so he can only put it in the storage compartment first, and try it later.

The next item is the skill book.

Speaking of which, Zong Shen himself has not seen such items for a long time~lightnovelpub.net~ This skill book is not thick, it is about the length of two palms.

There is a faint golden light shining on the cover, which is not conspicuous, but just highlights its preciousness. It says [spiritual vision] four large characters in the common language of the endless mainland human race.

Other than that, there are no patterns or patterns.

Just seeing the cover, Zong Shen knew that this thing must be a skill book produced by the lord system, not the classics used by the aborigines to learn to master magic and combat skills.

The former can be used directly and quickly without any effort, as long as it meets the requirements for use, you can directly master the skill.

Of course, the skill level you just learned is LV1, you need to activate this skill to increase the skill level, or directly use the [Skill Experience Book] to quickly upgrade.

The classics of the aborigines are different. They need to be truly learned and understood, and then they can be mastered through repeated practice.
