Chapter 44: Level 9 Offensive Art! Terrifying Amplification!

【Territory Name: Lord Chenxi】

【Territory Lord: Li Yue】

【Territory Tier: Common ★★★】

【Territory Buildings: Goblin Camp, Thorn Wall】

【Territory Units: 1 Earth Dragon Leader, 2 Goblin Heroes, 2 Goblin Chieftains...】

【Territory Equipment: None】

【Territory Energy: 1762】

【Territory Upgrade: Energy (1762/500), Altar Upgrade Stone (1/3)】

"1762 points of energy!"

A smile spread across Li Yue's lips.

Originally, he had only 62 points of energy left.

Yet in a single day, he had gathered a full 1700 points of energy!

"The north is dangerous, but the rewards are great."

"If not for the vast number of magical beasts in the north, I could not have gained so much energy."

His eyes flickered several times.

Should he send out a squad of goblins to slowly push northward and slay the magical beasts?

"But if I do that..."

"... I won't be able to sell fresh cores."

He frowned in deep thought.

More than half of today's gains came from selling fresh cores.

Although black iron magical beasts have a low chance of producing fresh cores.

Fresh cores are precious enough.

Furthermore, the portable trading interface allows him to sell fresh cores as quickly as possible.

However, fresh cores are only valid for two hours; after that, they solidify and lose most of their value.

If he is not with the squad.

This business cannot be done.

"First, convert the energy in hand into strength, then decide."

He whispered to himself.

He then arrived at the edge of the Thorn Wall.

The safety of the territory is extremely important.

Now that he has enough energy, he naturally must complete the construction of the entire Thorn Wall.

Moreover, the Thorn Wall can produce Thorn Flowers, granting extremely precious Talent Points.

White thorns appeared one by one, then merged into blue thorns within a white light.

Over an hour passed.

He had planted another 205 blue thorns.

At this moment, apart from leaving more than two meters open in each direction as gates.

Every other place was surrounded by the Thorn Wall.

A four-meter-high Thorn Wall.

No snake, insect, rat, or ant could cross it.

The security of the entire territory increased greatly.

As long as the Thorn Wall is not breached, the safety of the Territory Altar cannot be threatened!

"Humans should still live within city walls."

Li Yue chuckled softly.

Looking at the territory guarded by the Thorn Wall before him, he felt extremely satisfied.

Such a territory—

Is a true territory, not just an empty plot of land.

"Next—"

"It is time to witness the moment of the lucky one again."

Gazing at the Thorn Flowers, a flame of desire lit up in his eyes.

Talent is a Lord's most important ability.

It is also the most terrifying aspect of a territory.

Without hesitation.

He plucked Thorn Flowers one by one, put them in his mouth, and swallowed them.

Wandering between hope after hope and disappointment after disappointment.

Finally, when he ate the sixty-fifth Thorn Flower—

【You have eaten a Thorn Flower and gained one Talent Point】

"Keep it up!"

Joy filled Li Yue's heart as he continued to eat Thorn Flowers one by one.

But perhaps Lady Luck had been seduced away again by some other seductive wench.

Until the one hundred and ninetieth thorn flower.

He gained another single point of talent points.

Looking at the remaining fifteen thorn flowers—

Li Yue hesitated.

Should he keep these fifteen thorn flowers or eat them?

He thought.

Perhaps the next one would grant him another point of talent points.

"Keep them and sell them."

"Exchanging them for energy is more useful than gambling my luck here."

He took a deep breath.

Forcing down the urge to eat yet another one.

Two points of talent points.

He added them to the Offense Technique as well.

Instantly—

The Offense Technique advanced from Lv7 to Lv9!

Territory combat unit strength increased by 45%!

Such a terrifying increase.

Was enough to leave all lords at this stage bewildered.

After all—
