Chapter 127: Black Iron Three-Star Territory

In addition, there are several types of commodities that are stable, with almost no price fluctuations.

That is Red Iron and Bronze!

Red Iron is ten Energy points per unit!

Bronze is twenty Energy points per unit!

Even at such high prices, the market is still in short supply.

Even now, not only do those Rare or Transcendental Lords need a large amount of Red Iron, but even ordinary Lords need Red Iron resources!

This has led to a shortage of Red Iron!

And the number of people in the Resource Trade Alliance formed by Qin Luo has exceeded the one hundred thousand mark, reaching as many as fifteen thousand!

Of course, there may be some Lords who are muddling through and are not real resource merchants.

But Qin Luo has no way to exclude those non-merchant Lords one by one; the workload is too huge!

Fortunately, the merchants of the Resource Trade Alliance have been stabilizing the price of metal resources, and no accidents have occurred.

After understanding the prices of various commodities, Qin Luo began to acquire Territory Cores!

Compared to the previous two days, there are quite a few Territory Cores in the market now!

Some Lords don't need Territory Cores for the time being, so they will take them out for sale in exchange for some urgently needed supplies.

The price of a Territory Core is not low, ranging from twelve hundred to eighteen hundred Energy points in the market.

Finally, Qin Luo spent twenty-three thousand Energy points to buy seventeen Territory Cores!

"Upgrade!"

As Qin Luo's voice fell, the castle not far away rose from the flat ground, breaking through the height of ten meters, which was very magnificent and domineering.

The aura on its body also soared by a large margin, feeling as if it were full of inexhaustible power.

【Territory: Undead Divine Kingdom】

【Lord: Qin Luo 131415】

【Level: Black Iron Three-Star】

【Territory: Territory range radius of four hundred meters】

【Attribute: Daily production of 4000 Energy points; combat troops fighting in the territory have their attack and defense increased by 50%, fighting outside the territory have their attack and defense increased by 5%; resource mining speed +20%, planting yield increased by 20%, construction speed increased by 20%】

【Buildings: Undead Skeleton Camp, Ordinary Residential Building, Canteen, Warehouse...】

【Troops: 125,000 Undead Skeleton Soldiers (including 230 Black Iron Realm Undead Bone Generals), 19,100 Undead Skeleton Spear Soldiers (including ten Black Iron Grade Undead Spear Generals), 408 Undead Liches (Black Iron Realm), 1 Death Knight (Bronze Realm), 1 Necromancer (Bronze Realm), ten Undead Bone Dragons (Bronze Realm)】

【Resources: 74,000 Energy points, 28,000 units of stone, 28,000 units of wood, 23,000 units of food, as well as 1230 ordinary-grade magic crystals, 644 Black Iron-grade magic crystals, 14,000 units of Red Iron, 4,000 units of Bronze, 100 units of Mithril, 1490 units of Adamantine】

【Territory Equipment: Undead's Curse, Collapse Armor (unbound)】

【Special: Currently in an invincible state!】

【Upgrade conditions: Upgrade to Bronze One-Star, requires 40 Territory Cores, 400 Black Iron-grade magic crystals, 4000 ordinary-grade magic crystals, 4000 Energy points, 4000 units of food, 4000 units of wood, 4000 units of stone, 4000 units of Red Iron, 4000 units of Bronze!】 【127

【Sub-Territory: Dwarf Village (Black Iron One-Star), Orc Tribe (Black Iron Three-Star)】

【Resource Sites: Red Flame Mountain Mine, Red Iron Mine (Red Wolf Grotto Nest Mine), Surface Mineral Deposits, Orc Back Mountain Mineral Deposits.】

After the territory leveled up, the territory range expanded to a radius of four hundred meters, with a total area of approximately 500,000 square meters.

It is no longer like before, where you would leave the territory range after just a few steps!

As for the attributes, they also received a boost.

A daily production of four thousand energy points; this is a stable income, better than nothing.

Additionally, when combat units fight within the territory, their attack and defense increase by 50%; when fighting outside the territory, their attack and defense increase by 5%.

Even with only a 5% bonus outside the territory, for an Undead Army of over a hundred thousand, the overall improvement is not small.

As for the resource extraction speed +20%, planting yield increase of 20%, and construction speed increase of 20%, these belong to development-type attribute bonuses!

"A Black Iron Three-Star territory should be considered among the best out of billions of lords!"

"At this stage, lords who have upgraded to a Bronze-tier territory should be as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, perhaps there isn't even one!"

After Qin Luo finished sighing, feeling the changes in his own body, he swung both fists toward the front, and a wave of air surged out, smashing a pit into the level ground.

【Strength: 129】 (Base value, excluding equipment bonuses)

【Physique: 126】

【Agility: 110】

【Spirit: 129】

Just like the last upgrade, all four dimensional attributes increased by 30 points, and all of them broke one hundred!

Attributes not reaching one hundred points and breaking through one hundred points are two completely different concepts; the difference in strength is vast.

Generally speaking, one hundred attribute points is a dividing line between the Black Iron Realm and the Bronze Realm!

Don't look at Qin Luo as only being Black Iron Three-Star now; his combat power can surpass some Bronze One-Star creatures.

In fact, even for some Bronze One-Star creatures, at most one or two attributes break one hundred points.

Yet Qin Luo has all four attributes breaking one hundred points, and his highest, Strength and Spirit, have even reached a terrifying 129 points!

Moreover, there are almost no weaknesses, not to mention that Qin Luo is also wearing two pieces of Bronze-tier equipment, as well as other Black Iron-tier equipment.

With the support of equipment, even when facing a Bronze Two-Star enemy, he has the power to fight!

With such strong combat power, Qin Luo is not too worried about his personal safety being under too much threat!

However, when Qin Luo saw the conditions for the territory upgrade, a crazy idea couldn't help but pop into his mind!

To break through from a Black Iron Three-Star territory to Bronze One-Star, it requires 40 Territory Cores, 400 Black Iron-tier Magic Crystals, 4,000 Ordinary-tier Magic Crystals, 4,000 energy points, 4,000 units of food, 4,000 units of wood, 4,000 units of stone, 4,000 units of red iron, and 4,000 units of bronze!

Among these, there are two types of resources lacking.

There isn't a single Territory Core; he is short 40!

He has 1,230 Ordinary-tier Magic Crystals, and is still short 2,770!

As for the other resources, Qin Luo has already met the requirements!

Even for the relatively rare Black Iron-tier Magic Crystals, Qin Luo has already gathered enough!

Thinking of this, Qin Luo opened the Trading Market again and continuously purchased Territory Cores.

In the end, he spent fifty-one thousand energy points to buy forty Territory Cores!

As for the Ordinary-tier Magic Crystals, although the quantity needed is relatively large, the price of ordinary magic crystals is not high, and there are plenty on the market!

Qin Luo opened his own product interface and listed two thousand pieces of Ordinary-tier equipment, at the price of one Ordinary-tier Magic Crystal per piece.

Subsequently, Qin Luo began to sweep the market, purchasing Ordinary-tier Magic Crystals, with the price basically around 10 energy points each!

And Ordinary-tier Magic Crystals are everywhere on the market; there is no fear of not being able to buy them!

Although the drop rate of magic crystals is not high, it cannot withstand the large number of Ordinary-tier wild monsters being killed!

With the development speed of lords, even an ordinary lord has at least three or four hundred combat units under their command, enough to clear out a monster nest.

With billions of lords, the number of Ordinary-tier monsters killed in a single day is countless.

Therefore, over these past few days, the price of Ordinary-tier Magic Crystals has been falling, only the price drop speed is relatively slow, unlike other commodities that have plummeted.

At the beginning, it should have been twenty energy points each, later falling to fifteen to eighteen energy points, and then to eleven or twelve energy points.

By tonight, after the Dark Offensive basically ended, the Ordinary-tier Magic Crystals on the market were around ten energy points!

The reason for the price drop is also very simple: the lords' strength is getting stronger, more and more Ordinary-tier monsters are being killed, and the number of collected Ordinary-tier Magic Crystals is increasing, so much so that they cannot be used up; even ordinary lords have surplus Ordinary-tier Magic Crystals in their hands.

Once the supply and demand relationship begins to change, it will affect the market price!

Compared to the flooding of Ordinary-tier Magic Crystals, Black Iron-tier and Bronze-tier Magic Crystals currently remain in a state of extreme scarcity; many lords hoard them for profit, and some are not even willing to sell them at all!

After all, the number of lords who have the strength to kill Black Iron-tier and Bronze-tier monsters is relatively much smaller!
