Chapter 57: World Wonder: Ancestral Rice Seeds!
"Damn it, I went out for a trip and lost two? Where are they???"
Xu Xu Xiaojiang scratched his head, unable to figure out this problem.
Clearly, he hadn't received a notification of being killed, so why did only seven half-dragon hunters return?
One of the half-dragon hunters reported: "Lord, we have already searched the vicinity and found their bloodstains in two locations, but we still can't find where they were taken."
"Sigh, forget it, don't look for them anymore. The second wave of the campaign is about to start, everyone prepare."
Xu Xu Xiaojiang took out the two portions of spiritual food he had just snapped up from his backpack and gave them to the half-dragon hunter he thought was most suitable to eat them.
Actually, Xu Xu Xiaojiang wanted to keep one for himself, but sub-dragon species had arrogant personalities, so to increase favorability, Xu Xu Xiaojiang decided to wrong himself.
Anyway, they were all combat power in his territory, so it didn't matter, as long as they could successfully pass the monster tide.
[Village Announcement: The second wave of the new trial monster tide is coming! Countdown: 10...]
When twelve o'clock arrived, the second wave of the monster tide appeared around every territory on the Myriad Races Battlefield simultaneously.
No one could avoid it, and Yun Shen was no exception.
It was just that unlike ordinary people, his clearance speed was too fast.
In order to make his rating high enough, Yun Shen even turned the Profound Heaven Research Institute into an aerial fortress mode, with energy turrets emerging on the surface of that metal ball, starting automatic target acquisition.
By comparison, the role of the two defensive towers was obviously reduced; their output speed was simply too slow.
The energy turrets of the Profound Heaven Research Institute had a fast firing rate, very suitable for group combat, especially the new trial monster tide Yun Shen was facing, which could already be counted as a small war.
[Your territory successfully resisted the first wave of the monster tide, campaign settling...]
[This campaign rating: SSS!]
[Your rewards are as follows: Ancestral Rice Seeds · World Wonder (Excellent).]
Yun Shen's eyes lit up; he didn't expect his luck to be so good, actually obtaining a World Wonder!
Unlike yesterday's S rating, today, with the help of the Profound Heaven Research Institute, the monster clearing speed was ridiculously fast, directly reaching the SSS level!
The algorithm for campaign ratings takes into account the difficulty of the campaign and the clearance time, and is not uniform.
If the difficulty is not high enough, to get an SSS rating, you need to solve it at an extremely fast speed; for example, 0.01 seconds after the monster tide appears, you have to kill the whole field!
But if the difficulty is high enough, the time requirement will not be too exaggerated.
Clearly, this time Yun Shen met the standard!
Yun Shen quickly claimed it, and soon a golden rice seed appeared in his hand.
Unlike ordinary rice seeds, this seed was as big as a small finger joint, as if cast from gold, shining and eye-catching.
[Ancestral Rice Seeds]
[Type]: World Wonder
[Quality]: Green Excellent
[Introduction]: Countless ancient ancestors in the farming era had a dream, which is also the dream of millions of people, buried deep in the fields, wishing that people in the world would never go hungry!
[Ability]: Farming (Green), Harvest (Green)
[Entry]: None (0/1)
——
[Farming] (Green): Territory crop growth speed +30%.
[Harvest] (Green): Territory crop yield +30%.
"If the farming lords saw this, they would probably go crazy."
Yun Shen sighed; a 30% increase in growth speed and yield didn't have much effect on him, after all, he was suitable for the war lord route.
However, this was a World Wonder after all, a treasure that could be met but not sought, so he still had to pay attention to it.
"Refresh!"
One purple and two orange light orbs appeared, but unfortunately, none could raise it to the golden legendary quality.
If it were normal times, if an excellent quality item could refresh an orange entry, Yun Shen would definitely be happy to grant it.
But World Wonders were different; they were too hard to obtain. If he didn't refresh a golden entry or raise it to golden legendary quality, he wouldn't feel at ease.
Yun Shen walked into the alloy safe house and opened a metal cabinet, which contained the territory core.
"Bind!"
[World Wonder "Ancestral Rice Seeds" has been bound and automatically integrated into the territory.]
The Ancestral Rice Seeds in Yun Shen's hand immediately turned into golden light and escaped into the ground.
Every World Wonder has its own binding method; some float above the head, some need to be placed in a chosen spot like a building, and some take effect just by being put into the warehouse or backpack.
One thing is the same: once bound, as long as the territory exists, it cannot be taken away by others.
Even if it is held in someone's hand, it can be collected into the territory core at any time, but in this way, the effect of the World Wonder will not take effect.
Generally, this is only done when the territory is in battle, to prevent the World Wonder from being damaged.
Yun Shen's heart moved, and the Ancestral Rice Seeds that had just integrated into the earth flew into his hand automatically, and then he sent them back into the ground.
"Integrating into the earth is also good, safe."
Yun Shen was quite satisfied with today's harvest. The territory would definitely develop agriculture in the future; only self-sufficiency could prevent others from strangling his throat.
Speaking of which, he hadn't finished messing with that spiritual field yet.
There was insufficient manpower in the territory, and Yun Shen was usually quite busy, so he had just planted some seeds randomly before.
The junior high schools in the Dragon Kingdom of this world teach farming knowledge, but not much; it is said that more knowledge content is in high school.
Thinking about it, it makes sense; after graduating from junior high, it's the new trial, so why would you mess with farming at this time?
It is worth mentioning that graduation from junior high is graduation, but there is no high school entrance exam, or rather, the new trial is an alternative high school entrance exam.
In order to make the [Nine-Year Compulsory Education] cultivation method complete, the Dragon Kingdom naturally lets students complete the graduation ceremony before the new trial; it is impossible to wait until the new trial ends to graduate.
The start time of the new trial is actually during the summer vacation.
Yun Shen thought about it and didn't let the Profound Heaven Iron Maidens go farming; that would be too much of a waste of troops.
After the new trial ends, he would find a way to recruit a batch of farming troop types.
"This difficulty always feels like there's a problem..."
Yun Shen sat on the roof of the alloy safe house, watching the Profound Heaven Iron Maidens cleaning up the battlefield.
The number of wild monsters attacking today also reached three digits, and their strength was much stronger than yesterday.
In the main world, someone once did a statistic: the higher the quality of the awakened territory core, although you will face a higher difficulty new trial, the probability of passing... is also higher!
For example, this is like the territory trait giving you a 100% boost, but the difficulty of the new trial only rose by 50%!
"Could it be..."
A guess suddenly appeared in Yun Shen's heart: the difficulty of the new trial for him must have calculated the quality of the territory core.
The key point is that what was calculated is very likely to be the inferior quality, not the 500% attribute boost! ===== CHAPTER 103 =====
