Chapter 408: Change Begins
It was already afternoon when Lin You returned to the territory.
Holding the 10 intermediate faith orbs he had just obtained, he quickly came to the world tree.
[Do you want to use the "Faith Orb (Intermediate)"? ]
“Use them all.”
As the voice fell, all the orbs of faith turned into streams of light and merged into the World Tree. At the same time, a huge amount of energy poured into the body, strengthening it.
And his power of faith suddenly increased to more than 25,000, and he finally successfully crossed the halfway threshold.
As for the Origin Fruit, Lin You did not exchange it immediately, but planned to accumulate a certain amount first.
After all, it's only 1,000 faiths.
Exit the interface.
He took the newly obtained secret treasure to the military base and bound it to the lantern grass and plant dragon branches.
As for the low-level secret treasures that were replaced, keep them for now. If there is a chance in the future, you can sell them or exchange them for other things.
After a series of operations, his strength has been greatly improved, and he has finally replaced the secret treasures of all arms with SSS-level ones. The only things missing are a few auxiliary arms such as the plant arms, dandelions, and ancient trees of knowledge.
"There's still some time, let's go outside and take a look."
After taking a look at the sky, Lin You did not stay in the territory any longer. He took Ling Xi and walked outside to check the situation in Huangsha City.
After several months of development, the urban area of Huangsha City has expanded to four or five times its original size, almost covering the entire forest.
And due to the special nature of his territory, the urban construction is divided into two levels, the ground and the trees.
A well-connected transportation network has been built in the forest, and each urban area is bustling with cars and people coming and going.
Especially towards the afternoon, many caravan carriages from other surrounding cities drove into the city.
Lin You walked around the new urban area and finally found Xue Changgui and Wei Gang who were talking on the east side of the forest near the Gobi Desert.
"My Lord."
"Greetings, Lord."
Seeing Lin You coming, the two of them immediately saluted him respectfully.
Lin You raised his hand slightly: "No need to be polite, how is the construction going here recently?"
As he spoke, he glanced at the simple checkpoints outside the forest and the teams of guards patrolling back and forth.
"My lord, the construction of the main urban area is basically on track. It just needs time to develop. There are still some problems with the defense checkpoints." Xue Changgui said with a bow.
"What's the problem?" Lin You retracted his gaze and looked at him.
Before Xue Changgui could answer, Wei Gang beside him said, "It's like this. Today, a hunting team came back to report that the monsters in the Gobi Desert seem to have become stronger and more violent than before."
"There is such a thing?" Lin You's eyes moved.
For some reason, when he heard Wei Gang's report, he inexplicably thought of the torso shadow he saw in the Nightmare Forest today.
"Yes, those monsters have not only become stronger, but also more numerous. Today, two waves of beasts suddenly appeared and ran out of the Gobi Desert. The original fortifications of the outpost are a bit insufficient, so I discussed the expansion with Chief Steward Xue."
"Expansion?"
Lin You muttered to himself, and couldn't help looking at the checkpoints outside the forest used to defend against the beast tide. They were just a few rows of wood and fences, which were indeed a bit simple.
Outside the checkpoint, there were many practitioners and the corpses of monsters were being processed on the ground.
They must have just experienced a tide of beasts, and it seems that their numbers are indeed a lot greater than before.
If we do nothing, the defense force of Huangsha City may not be able to hold on and there may be casualties.
If monsters broke into the city and wreaked havoc while he was away, his loss would be huge.
It will even directly affect his acquisition of the power of faith.
That won't work.
After thinking for a while, he said, "In that case, let's slow down the expansion of the city for now, mobilize some manpower here, and build a new defense checkpoint and city wall outside to connect to the other side of the mountain."
"My lord, do you mean to completely isolate Huangsha City from the Gobi Desert and defend the city?" Xue Changgui asked in surprise.
Building a city wall connecting here to the mountains is an extremely large project, and the manpower and material resources required are no less than those for building a city area.
Especially when it comes to the selection of defense materials and equipment, we cannot be careless at all, after all, it is the front line used to resist the beast tide.
"Yes, the city was small before, and we had to rely on manpower and equipment to stop the beast tide."
"It's different now. The urban area and population have increased, and the previous methods can no longer be used."
"I will transfer another 50 million to the working capital later, and add it to the original 30 million, and use it to purchase materials and recruit personnel."
Lin You earned so much magic power, not only to improve his own strength, but also to use it to quickly develop his territory.
So he naturally would not be stingy in this regard. He directly opened the territory interface and transferred 50 million magic energy into the Huangsha City funds.
This is probably one of his advantages.
You can build territories with more resources.
At least in terms of territory development, he believed that he was no less capable than any eighth-rank lord.
"That's right."
Then, Lin You thought of something, and with a wave of his hand, a small mountain of materials appeared on the open space.
"Take these ninth-level materials and have the dwarves make them into equipment to improve the strength of the guard team."
“Ninth level!”
Wei Gang's eyes suddenly widened as he looked at the pile of materials in front of him.
The quantity is so huge that it is no problem to create dozens of sets of ninth-level equipment.
"Is this really for us?"
Wei Gang couldn't help swallowing.
Xue Changgui, who was standing next to him, was also very shocked when he heard this.
Their lord actually killed so many ninth-level monsters!
"Of course it's for you. You can arrange it yourself. Remember to give it to someone you trust." Lin You reminded.
"Don't worry, lord. I will definitely get it done!"
Wei Gang was startled and answered quickly.
"Okay, everyone go and do your work. I'll go outside to check out the situation."
Lin You didn't say anything else. He directly summoned the Demon Emperor Dragon, and flew out of the checkpoint in a whistling wind and into the depths of the Gobi Desert.
The huge figure immediately caused the passers-by nearby to exclaim in surprise.
"Farewell, Lord!"
Xue Changgui and Wei Gang's shouts echoed at the checkpoint, and they watched Lin You leave.
At this time, the speed of the Demon Emperor Dragon was no longer comparable to before.
The speed was so fast that it crossed the outer edge of the Gobi Desert in a blink of an eye, leaving Huangsha City far behind.
"accelerate!"
At Lin You's command, the Demon Emperor Dragon directly activated the Shadow Speed skill, and its speed increased sharply.
Immediately afterwards, the effect of the Wind Elf's secret treasure was triggered, and the entire huge body of the Demon Emperor Dragon began to become illusory, and even Lin You on his back had his body twisted.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Is this the riding effect?"
Lin You was extremely surprised. He didn't expect that the new secret treasure's dodge attack effect would also be effective for riders.
In this way.
In the future, when he rides the Demon Emperor Dragon to speed up and escape, he will have a 40% chance of dodging attacks, and his escape ability will be directly improved to a higher level.
“Good results!”
Lin You couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, feeling the cool breeze constantly passing by his side, and his speed suddenly increased.
In less than half an hour, he had arrived above the deep Gobi Desert.
It was just as Wei Gang said.
There are more monsters in the Gobi Desert.
Herds of monsters can be seen everywhere, running across the vast expanse of loess, and even the number of monster nests is denser than before.
Lin You flew over a pack of black wolves, and an attribute interface popped up in front of him.
[Name: Dark Wolf (Normal)]
[Race: Beast]
[Level: Eighth Order (F Grade)]
[Strength: 2040 (+408)]
【Physique: 1985 (+397)】
[Agility: 2180 (+436)]
[Spirit: 2000 (+400)]
[Skills: Rush, Shadow Strike, Shadow Arrow]
[Chaos: All attributes increased by 20%]
[Introduction: A wolf-like monster that walks in the dark, likes to live in groups, and has strong fighting ability at night. ]
Hmm? F grade? After reading the attributes, Lin You couldn't help but be shocked.
The ordinary monsters in this desert were unexpectedly infected by chaos and began to evolve.
This reminded him of the ninth-level lord monster he killed today, which had also evolved.
Once can be considered a coincidence, but twice is hard to say.
Could it be that.
Did the changes in the monster plane actually affect the monsters on the mainland? Or is the chaotic aura in the monster plane infiltrating into the various realms? If this is true, it would be terrible.
Because he knew clearly what had triggered this series of changes.
It was the terrifying existence suppressed under the monster plane! Lin You didn't know what these changes meant.
But he could feel that something big was about to happen.
And it is very likely to be a major event that will sweep across the entire universe! Frightened, he immediately went to other places to check on other monsters, and sure enough, they all evolved to varying degrees.
Most of them are F grade, and a small number reach E grade.
Only one day had passed.
If things continue to develop in this way, it is only a matter of time before they evolve to A-level or even S-level. It is even possible that a leader or even a lord monster will evolve, greatly increasing the difficulty of defense.
It seems that his decision to build defensive walls and strengthen the defense of the territory was a very wise one.
In this way, I wandered around the Gobi Desert again and hunted a few monsters that looked delicious.
Only then did Lin You activate the territory teleportation array and teleport back directly.
“Swish!”
The light comes on.
He returned to the territory again.
As evening approached, they took the monsters they had just hunted to the side, skinned and cleaned them, and prepared to enjoy a barbecue.
"Fuck! Guys, the monsters around my territory have evolved!"
At this moment, a message suddenly popped up in the Principality Channel, and finally other lords also discovered the monster's changes.
For a moment, all the lords were talking about it.
"Your side has evolved too? I thought it was only mine."
"I've encountered the same situation, what's going on?"
"Shit! When I was out today, my territory was overwhelmed by a tide of evolved beasts. I almost couldn't stop it."
"That's good. Originally, I only had level 6 monsters, but after the upgrade, level 7 monsters have started to appear."
"Does this mean that everyone should speed up the upgrade process?"
