Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

As the negative body is quickly swallowed.

The prompt message that excited Zong Shen appeared again.

[Successfully swallowed the Negative Shadow, all attributes increased by 0.2, and the power of the Chaos Core was slightly increased]

…

Improving attributes is definitely a pleasure for the lord.

Especially this kind of opportunity to become stronger quickly is very rare.

Those [Negative Demonic Liquids] have an extraordinary attraction to negative bodies.

At this time, violent negative bodies continued to pour out from everywhere.

They are clustered together, and when they move, they always bring out large gray afterimages.

Zong Shen stood there, feeling really refreshed.

Under such circumstances, the total number of negative bodies devoured by [Chaos Core] soon exceeded 10,000.

The number of negative electrodes appearing around is greatly reduced.

The rate of outflow is significantly reduced.

Zong Shen took a look at the attribute list and found that all his attributes had increased by 2116 points.

Note that this is only a normal property.

The most difficult thing to improve is the normal attribute.

If it is amplified, the strength gain it brings can be increased several times.

enough!

Stop it!

There was a stern scolding.

This voice echoed slowly.

Affected by this, there is no more negative electrode body flowing out immediately.

This made Zong Shen exclaim that it was a pity.

According to his calculations, there are at least close to 20,000 negative electrode bodies here.

If you swallow them all, you should be able to increase the normal attributes by another 4,000 points.

This could push the current norm properties toward the five-digit mark.

At this moment, Zong Shen's attributes have changed almost drastically compared to when he first came in.

Expand the attribute list and all attributes will appear at a glance.

【Power: 6473】

[Agility: 4545]

[Intelligence: 4687]

【Charm: 4525】

[HP: 46117+1500 (Magic Thunder Breast Mirror) +5000 (Kard Medical Gem) +2000 (Ace Emblem) +3000 (Whistle of All Souls Bowing) +1500 (The Fool's Black Gloves)]

[Domination value: 5638]

…

The changes brought about by the improvement of basic attributes are still very obvious.

At this time, Zong Shen could fight those ancient legendary heroes head-on even without transforming.

But this is far from the current limit state.

Only when all four attributes reach 30,000 points is the attribute limit of the legendary level.

Because this value is also the limit of damage increase when a legendary strongman attacks, currently there is still a big gap between Zong and the 30,000-point mark for a single attribute.

If you are unable to understand the rules then you will become a demigod.

Then his strength will be limited.

In fact, his current strength is already at a ceiling level that is difficult for most lords to reach.

According to normal development, with the blessing of levels, magic items, equipment, etc.

For most lords, there is no problem if they reach the epic level, which is around the sixth level of combat power.

If you continue to go up, the progress of growth will become slower and slower, and there may even be an obvious plateau.

Not to mention the current stage, in the next few years, there will probably be very few lords whose individual strength can reach the level of legend.

This is by no means alarmist, but a completely normal situation.

The lord itself does not rise by relying on the strength of a single entity.

Instead, actively recruit troops and master more powerful soldiers and heroes.

At the same time, efforts were made to build the territory.

Let the territory, soldiers, heroes, and lords achieve a four-in-one increase.

This is the development trajectory of a normal lord.

Therefore, it is not the other lords who are abnormal, but the Zong himself.

He now possesses strong individual strength and can be said to be walking on a forked path.

This makes the gap between himself and ordinary lords wider and wider.

All roads lead to Rome.

No matter which path you take, as long as you keep walking firmly, you can climb to the top.

Of course Zong Shen would not resist the opportunity to become stronger.

Now, fusing the Negative Body is a rare opportunity to quickly improve basic attributes.

Just when I was enjoying the pleasure of sucking, it suddenly stopped.

This made him feel dissatisfied.

sneaking.

You are the negative body with wisdom, right?

Zong Shen crossed his arms across his chest and fixed his eyes on a space in front of him.

The Negative Body is invisible and insubstantial before it is actively revealed, but it can accurately lock the position of the speaker.

See Zong Shen found his location.

The intelligent negative body has no intention of continuing to hide.

It takes the initiative to show its own shape.

The overall outline looks much clearer than those miscellaneous fish negative bodies.

The so-called negative body is not just a kind of negative energy, its essence is the combination of negative body and flesh and blood life.

Therefore, after the [Chaos Core] is fused and absorbed, Zong Shen can gain attribute gains.

The intelligent negative body in front of us obviously has a more powerful energy level. No wonder it can become a leader-like role among the negative bodies.

If it can be absorbed, it can at least increase all attributes by twenty or thirty points.

Let's talk business.

The intelligent negative body looks very calm, and its body shape is also gray-white, like a dark cloud with a human shape, and its facial features and appearance cannot be seen clearly.

But Zong Shen knew that this guy must have had a solemn face during his lifetime.

There is a high probability that he is a high-ranking officer of the Third Holy Legion.

what business?

You have become a negative body. You should understand that the whole world is incompatible with you.

Zong Shen said with great interest that he wanted to see how this intelligent negative body planned to persuade it.

He knows very well that there is a clear threshold for the control or command of the intelligent negative body to other negative bodies.

The negative body itself is not an orderly thing.

Being able to command or control depends entirely on the difference in energy levels.

If Zong Shen takes out more [Negative Demonic Liquid] to increase the temptation.

Those negative bodies will definitely be unable to hold back.

So Zong Shen seemed confident.

You're right.

The negative state seems powerful, but in fact it is extremely fragile.

Because annihilation is mutual.

As much as the positive pole disappears, the negative pole must also be annihilated.

When an ordinary negative body reaches the outside world, it will be washed away by magic power and die soon.

So we just have to stay here.

The negative body of wisdom did not approach, but explained patiently.

Zong Shen narrowed his eyes slightly and asked in a curious tone.

So isn't it good to choose liberation?

Your legion commander, His Excellency Adorade Correa, has completed his watch and mission. He decisively chose to escape.

Hearing this, the intelligent negative body was silent for a moment before answering.

What you said makes sense.

But we also have the right to live.

In the negative state, I glimpsed another world.

At the same time, I also learned the nature of magic.

If you are willing to let me and my subordinates go.

Then I am willing to serve you and use the [Negative Demonic Liquid] to transform the negative body for you to devour. I can see that you will gain great benefits by devouring us.

It said extremely rationally, which made Zong Shen a little surprised.

Then you swear allegiance to me.

This is an attempt. He wants to see if the intelligent negative body can join his army.

When you become one of your own, you don't have to worry about me going back on my word.

Zong Shen was still very tempted by this proposal.

After a full meal, he certainly knows which one is better.

After pondering for a while, the negative body of wisdom pounced down like a dark cloud blown by the wind.

Zong Shen stood still because he was not afraid of the Negative Body at all.

I saw this intelligent negative body coming to stand a few meters in front of Zong Shen.

Then he bowed to him obediently.

Hats off to you.

Williams O'Brien offers his allegiance and devotion to you.

…

After it opened its mouth, a prompt to join in allegiance appeared in front of Zong Shen.

It seems that under the larger framework of the lord system, negative bodies can really join the territory.

I accept your allegiance.

Williams O'Brien, welcome to join us.

The glory be with you.

Zong Shen replied casually, completing the process of loyalty and recruitment.

Nothing more was said.

The intelligent negative body named Williams O'Brien told him straight to the point.

You can bring any creature here that does not have the power of the rules in the future.

As long as we prepare enough [Negative Demonic Liquid], we can transform the target into a negative form for you, and then you can devour it to your heart's content.

Its tone was calm, and joining Zong Shen's command was more like a compromise and expediency.

However, the framework of loyalty is extremely strong, and it does not mean that it can be lifted if you want to.

This guy's name is shown in the information as [Demon Peeper Negative Body Williams O'Brien].

There are no ranks or grades.

Even the attributes, skills, and talent information are completely blank.

There is no data template about the negative body in the Lord system.

After all, these guys were born out of accident and chance.

It can be regarded as an extremely non-mainstream existence.

Instead, this station became Zong Shen's legal territory or a special building.

Because here, Zong Shen can activate a skill.

It’s called [Negative Transformation].

[Negative Transformation: Consume a certain amount of negative magic liquid to transform any creature into a negative form. Creatures below the legendary level will most likely lose their intelligence, but demigod-level creatures that cannot understand the rules can only continue to cause damage. Until the target dies]

…

Williams O'Brien did not lie.

Zong Shen nodded, but didn't say much. Later he planned to go outside to catch a monster or beast to test the waters.

If the conversion process is relatively simple.

From now on, improving his basic attributes will be as simple as eating and drinking.

The only thing that is uncertain is whether [Chaos Core] has an upper limit for devouring it.

Logically speaking, it should be impossible to swallow it permanently.

But no matter what, as much as you can swallow counts.

Williams O'Brien, you should be familiar with this place.

Yes, my lord.

“I personally planned this residence back then.”

I am one of the two deputy commanders in the legion.

Williams O'Brien explained softly.

Zong Shen nodded and looked at the [Negative Demonic Liquid] clay pot that was used to attract monsters before.

Do these negative demonic liquids have any effect on your negative bodies?

[Negative Demonic Liquid] has great attraction to negative bodies.

This is certainly not for no reason.

Williams O'Brien had no intention of hiding this issue.

Absorbing [Negative Demonic Liquid] will allow us to continue to grow.

Before this, we had been sustained by the negative power overflowing from the deep pool of negative power.

So we are always eager for pure power condensation like [Negative Demonic Liquid].

Speaking of which, Zong Shen didn't know much about the growth method and system of the Negative Body.

It seems that they must have their own special system.

But as long as both parties can reach a consensus, then this problem doesn't matter.

The deep pool outside contains a massive amount of [Negative Demonic Liquid].

His intuition told him that if these negative bodies grow up, they will undergo many changes.

Whether these changes are good or bad, no one can say.

Because there is no similar precedent in the past.

To be on the safe side, we definitely cannot give them an unlimited supply of [Negative Demonic Liquid].

It is necessary to observe for a period of time first.

If the situation is not right at that time, he can devour these negative bodies again.

Regarding the power of the negative pole, there are not many things in this world that can suppress it, but by coincidence, [Chaos Core] is the same.

In addition, Zong Shen also tried to swallow [Negative Demonic Liquid].

But no gain can be obtained.

The best that the forces of Chaos can do is ignore it.

But the negative electrode body is different.

These special forms are formed by the combination of negative power and endless continental creatures.

After being devoured by the [Chaos Core], it can be transformed into enhancing Zong Shen's own power.

It is equivalent to a process of fermentation and purification.

In short, Zong's attitude towards these negative bodies is very complicated.

There is some distrust, but also the idea of ​​​​waiting and research.

If you swallow them all simply and crudely, it would be refreshing, but it would also be a one-time deal.

The original strategy module was talking about these legion soldiers who became like this after being attacked by negative electrodes. It can be seen that the effect of the so-called negative electrode invasion is very overbearing.

But Zong Shen didn't feel it here.

There are also many magic items left in the station.

Like the bell he found in the stable.

If the church had a protective effect and would not be affected, Zong Shen would still understand.

But hasn't the station been attacked by negative electrodes?

The power of the negative pole not only corrodes living beings, but also destroys magical items.

It stands to reason that if this place had really been infiltrated by the so-called negative power, then no magic props and rare objects would have survived.

Thinking of this doubt, he looked at Williams O'Brien again.

This guy has no facial features, and naturally has no concept of looking at each other.

But Zong Shen knew very well what it was observing.

It could also be that he was digesting the information he got after joining the territory.

So he asked bluntly.

Williams O'Brien, what is Negative Invasion?

This question made Williams O'Brien, who was an intelligent negative body, stunned for a moment.

It was silent for a while before answering.

That was a disaster.

The negative pole disrupts space.

It will have bad consequences for the creatures in the positive world.

It was like two sides of the world overlapped for a moment.
