Your secret game is absolutely poisonous!

Chapter 121 Contract and Awakening

The battle is over!

Higanbana put the Bailei back into the mahogany scabbard.

The strongest monster in Tianyun City, the Skeleton Ancient King, stood there like a statue. The golden sword in his hand had long been broken, and the soul fire in his empty eyes gradually went out. Finally, his body quickly weathered and collapsed like rotten wood.

【Challenge successful! 】

[This secret realm evaluation: Double Armor! ]

[You have obtained the "Soul of the Ancient Skeleton King" +1! ]

The red spider lily is very happy!
Level 3 five-star spirits are extremely rare!

Each one produced will consume no less than 5,000 mental energy from the lord!
The lord suffered a great loss.

Adventurers make huge profits!
The drop rate of spirits in Tianyun City is not high.

It is only one-fifth of Miracle City or even lower.

Obtaining this kind of top-level spirit is extremely difficult!
After only clearing the Tomb of the Ancient King once, Higanbana managed to successfully reveal the most valuable treasure of Tianyun City. This was not only enough to cause a sensation in Tianyun City, but also to directly make the headlines in Black Stone Town.

There is an element of luck.

But luck doesn't play a big role.

The first pass and first kill will greatly increase the drop rate. The more times a secret realm is challenged and the longer it runs without producing certain spirits, the higher the drop rate of the corresponding spirit items will be.

The red spider lily cleared the level too quickly.

It also received high praise.

It's not surprising that you win the jackpot when all these factors combine.

"Leader of the Higanbana team is too strong!"

"Boss, what is the origin of the weapon you hold? Why can it directly kill the six skeleton generals!"

"This power is too exaggerated. Even someone as powerful as the Ancient Skeleton King can be killed with a single blow. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it."

"..."

Whether it is an ordinary adventurer.

Or the other three big bosses at the group leader level.

Everyone was amazed by the Immortal Slash in Higanbana's hands.

"This is the Immortal Slash from Miracle City. It has the ability to directly kill the souls of dark species, undead species, and demon species!"

"what?"

"Kill the soul!"

"Miracle City can actually produce such a magical weapon!"

"This weapon is undoubtedly the most powerful weapon in the world!"

"No wonder Boss Higanbana has been in Miracle City all this time. If I knew there was such a magical weapon in Miracle City, and it met the rank requirements, I would definitely get it!"

"This wave is so cool, sir!"

"Having unearthed a peerless divine weapon from Miracle City and captured the ancient king's spirit from Sky Cloud City, his future is limitless with these two items. He might even become the leader of the four great group leaders in the future!"

"..."

no doubt.

After today's incident spread.

This Immortal Sword alone can attract a large number of adventurers to Miracle City for a long time.

The red spider lily didn't care.

A mere Immortal Slash could cause such a sensation.

If the spirits of Miracle City that were contracted in the future, such as the White Snake God and Sword Saint Ashina Isshin, used the power of Miracle City to challenge Tianyun City, I wonder how everyone would react.

Although the ancient king's spirit is strong.

The features are not very outstanding.

It is not necessarily as valuable as the numerous second-level named spirits in Miracle City!

"The Lord is coming!"

As expected, Ran Tianyun was alarmed.

Losing a level three, five-star spirit is a huge loss.

However, Lord Tianyun's family is large and powerful, so it won't be a serious loss.

"Congratulations, Captain Higanbana. This Ancient King's Spirit, as the strongest spirit in Tianyun City, is more suitable to become a third-level natal spirit. This lord can exchange it for you for free."

The adventurers became agitated again.

If you take the Ancient Skeleton King as your natal soul.

The strength and foundation of the red spider lily will be greatly enhanced.

The General Kuang Tu whom she replaced would not disappear, but would only be downgraded from a life soul to an ordinary auxiliary spirit. He could still be transformed or cultivated in the future, which would be enough to make him go from being the last of the four captains to being one of the best.

Ran Tianyun is testing.

If the red spider lily accepts the soul exchange.

This means that she will continue to stay in Tianyun City for a long time.

On the contrary, it means that she has already thought about changing her job.

"No need. I haven't figured out how to use this spirit yet."

Ran Tianyun heard this.

I felt both regretful and relieved.

Adventurers are a highly mobile group, and changing their guilds will more or less result in a loss of cultivation. If they are willing to risk losing their cultivation to do so, it only means that the other dungeon has a huge appeal to them.

Lost a great adventurer.

It's a big loss for the dungeon.

In turn, it will also significantly reduce the burden on the dungeon.

Especially after Higanbana possessed the Immortal Slash.

Ran Tianyun has become increasingly aware of the great potential of Miracle City, but he did not expect that this underground city could produce such a top-grade weapon as the Undead Slash in such a short time.

This shows that the potential is even greater than expected!

The purpose of Higanbana's return this time is to promote the cooperation between Miracle City and Tianyun City.

Tianyun City is the strongest channel that Miracle City can currently access, and Tianyun City can also gain benefits from cooperation with Miracle City. The two underground cities do not have the ability to directly threaten each other.

There is no need to fight.

It is better to establish cooperation based on what each party needs.

Once this kind of cooperative relationship is reached, the Huangquan Mercenary Group will also be able to profit from it.

……

now.

Miracle City.

Inside the lord's mansion.

Today's business is closed.

After Boss Qi closed his stall, he once again took stock and settled today's earnings as usual.

Today's expenses are quite high.

Light burst out with an immortal slash.

Qi Ji paid the price of nearly 3000 energy points.

However, although the expenditure is very high, there is still a net income of more than 8,000 mental power, far exceeding that of most second-level lords!
In addition to these fixed incomes, there is another thing worth celebrating, that is, the three major alien tribes have officially joined Miracle City.

At this moment, several groups of adventurers have arrived at the villages of the three major alien races.

They activated the local sacred stone for Miracle City.

Qi Ji started refining it immediately.

You successfully conquered the "Scarlet Thorn Forest" and received 1 "Chaos Chest (White)"!

You successfully captured "Iron Hammer Village" and received 1 "Chaos Chest (White)"!

You successfully conquered the Howling Fang Tribe and received 1 Chaos Chest (White)!

The Crimson Thorn Forest is the territory of the Flower Demon Clan.

There live three thousand flower demons there.

This flower fairy is a relatively rare race. There are not many places where flower fairies are distributed in the entire continent, and the Eternal Night Forest is one of them.

The flower demons are generally weak in combat, but they have very good auxiliary production capabilities and will surely contribute to the prosperity of Miracle City in the future.

Iron Hammer Village is a dwarf tribe with a total of two thousand dwarves living there. Dwarves are a race that is very good at forging, and they are also a race of brave and warlike warriors, so their value is not low.

The Howling Fang Tribe is a tribe of dog-headed people, with a total of 3,500 dog-headed people living there. Although the dog-headed people's racial talents are not very good and their IQ is not very high,
But this race has one characteristic.

That's loyalty.

Once tamed, kobolds rarely rebel.

It is particularly suitable to be trained as the grassroots guard of the territory and used to maintain order in the territory in the future.

This wave of annexation did so without firing a single shot.

Qi Ji will gain 8,500 new subjects, plus the 3,000 dwarfs that have already been recovered, the population of Miracle City will exceed 10,000!
This is a staggering number.

The larger the population and the stronger the foundation, the more exclusive adventurers can be cultivated, thereby strengthening the basic foundation of the territory.

Qi Ji opened three treasure chests.

[You opened the Chaos Treasure Chest, Soul Crystals +1500, Mirror Stones +3!]

[You opened the Chaos Treasure Chest, Soul Crystals +1000, "Blueprint: Barrier Tower" +1!]

[You opened the Chaos Treasure Chest, Soul Crystals +2000, "Blueprint: Hall of Heroes" +1!]

These three Chaos Treasure Chests are of good quality, and contain two blueprints and three special items.

[Mirror Stone], a top-grade white item, is a special consumable. It consumes 20 points of mental power to summon a physical mirror image, which can last up to 8 hours.

This is a common lord prop. Its biggest function is to use mirror projection to complete some things that require physical presence without leaving home.

The Mirror Stone can not only be used directly, but can also be dropped with the territory's citizens or contracted adventurers as anchors.

convenient!

Efficient!

Very safe!

As for the two drawings?

One is a first-level facility, the barrier tower, which can only be built in a town or fortress to provide all-round protection for the territory.

This blueprint is very popular in the new lord market. Each copy costs at least 3500 soul crystals, and it is often out of stock.

Although the blueprint of the barrier tower is good.

But what surprised Qi Ji even more was another one.

[Blueprint: Hall of Heroes], second-level special building blueprint, construction conditions: 5000 soul crystals, 3000 first-level material essences, 2000 mental power.

This is the facility used by the territory to conclude heroic contracts. This facility itself is not too rare, but it is not easy for a new lord to buy it.

Good luck.

Issued one.

Qi Ji consumed the resources without hesitation.

He built the Hall of Heroes near the lord's mansion.

In this way, the territory will have the ability to contract hero units.

This initial Hall of Heroes can contract up to two hero units, and each hero unit needs to be bound to a main city.

In other words.

Qi Jiling can choose his subjects.

From them, a hero from Miracle City and a hero from Undercity were cultivated.

Because Undercity has not yet been officially activated, you can actually only form one hero unit.

A few minutes later.

Nancy Liya came up to him.

"Lord, you summoned me. What do you want me to do?"

Qi Ji got straight to the point and said, "Miracle City has just created a Hall of Heroes, but there aren't any particularly suitable candidates within the territory right now. Are you interested in becoming a territory hero?"

what?
Territory Hero!

Nancy Liya was shocked when she heard this.

Each territory can train its own hero units.

Because hero units can better integrate and utilize the power of the territory, the more powerful and promising the dungeon, the higher the value of its hero contract.

There are limited hero spots.

So it is very precious!

Most of the current residents of Miracle City are dwarves, plus the villagers who have just been conquered by the nearby tribes. There are indeed no particularly suitable candidates, so it is normal for the lord to think of himself.

Brief stagnation.

A strong feeling of emotion and ecstasy surged in my heart!

This shows that the lord trusts and recognizes me!

Nancy Liya had already recognized Miracle City a long time ago, so naturally there was no reason for her to refuse such an opportunity!

but.

She still hesitated.

She gritted her teeth and said directly, "My Lord, I am actually an elf from the Holy Tree City. I have the blood of the ancient Elf King... Although the era when the elves ruled the Evernight Forest is long gone, the Evernight Dragon King and his minions will not miss the opportunity to wipe them out, so I..."

"It does not matter."

Qi Ji said calmly, "Miracle City has the ability to protect every one of its citizens, and naturally it also has the ability to protect the heroes of the territory. Whether it's the Eternal Night Dragon King or other dark lords, sooner or later they will all be targets that Miracle City will challenge and conquer."

Nancy Liya didn't expect the lord to be so calm.

She sensed a strong sense of confidence in this young human.

This kind of self-confidence not only infected her and gave her a strong sense of security, but also completely dispelled her last bit of worry.

Plop.

Kneel down on the ground.

"If the Lord doesn't mind me being a burden and a nuisance, Nancy Liya is willing to follow the Lord forever and swear allegiance to Miracle City until death!"

"Well, great, come with me!"

Qi Ji brought Nancy Liya to the Hall of Heroes.

He formally held a hero-bonding ceremony for Nancy Liya.

Of course, this process was carried out in a low-key manner, and Nancy Liya's identity should not be exposed too early.

[You are granting the Heroic Brand to "Nancy Liya". This granting will consume 1 Spiritual Power. Do you want to continue? Yes/No!]

Contract Hero.

It’s so expensive!
Currently, there is about 1.5 mental strength.

Although most of the reserves will be spent in one go.

But with the income level of the territory, it can be earned back in one day.

"contract!"

A spiritual force as vast as a river.

It was released from Qi Ji and absorbed by the Hall of Heroes, then transformed and injected into Nancy Liya's body, eventually forming a hero mark deep in her soul.

from now on.

Nancy Liya is Qi Jiling's first heroic unit.

This will make Nancy Liya's fate closely linked to the fate of Miracle City and Qi Ji.

If Miracle City is destroyed or the lord falls, the hero of the territory will also be implicated and unable to survive alone... Although there are such powerful restrictions, there are also many benefits.

Generally speaking, the stronger the territory, the stronger the hero units will be.

Territory heroes can better utilize the power of the territory.

This is not something ordinary adventurers can compare to.

Qi Ji finally got the "Blessing of the World Tree" as he wished!
This is Nancy Liya's most important luck. It has many functions and effects. The most important one is to increase the chance of awakening. Qi Ji now has an extra chance of spiritual sea awakening.

"Finally got a new number of awakenings!"

Qi Ji has been looking for more opportunities to awaken his spiritual sea and activate the crystallization of inspiration.

This is for him.

It is so important!
At this moment, the number of times the Spirit Sea awakens is +1.

He awakened without hesitation.

In an instant.

Qi Ji's consciousness.

Once again, a colorful and boundless sea descended.

A mysterious energy descended from the sky, stirring up the vast and colorful ocean, turning it into a huge whirlpool, and several crystals were generated one after another.

One, two, three... four!
Not bad!

Four more!

Qi Ji sensed it.

He quickly learned the information about the four crystals.

[The Sea of ​​Inspiration has been awakened successfully, and you have obtained the inspiration crystals "Titanfall", "Call of Duty", "StarCraft", and "Star Wars"! ]
