Lords of the Heavens

Chapter 405 True wealth comes from having it yourself.
very good!

very good!
Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

Under normal circumstances, to upgrade a common job card to rare, you first need to return to your base camp, at least to Ver City, and then prepare no less than 20,000 gold coins, maybe more, while also preparing to consume 50 Fates.

In other words, one round of reinforcement could mean years of wasted effort.

Li Wei doesn't care about gold coins now, but destiny is really expensive.

In gaming terms, this is the key parameter that determines whether or not a critical hit can be landed.

In fact, as long as Li Wei has four Destiny Resonances, matches them with an Enchantment Bow, and is equipped with an Enchantment Four-Star Armor-Piercing Arrow, he can deal thousands of points of damage with a single arrow.

Even a powerful magical shield like that of a half-goat super-spellcaster can be broken with three arrows.

No, we can take it down with just two arrows now.

Therefore, the conventional strengthening is really painful, and Li Wei had even planned to spend two years specifically preparing for this.

The problem is now solved.

A five-star enhancement item card doesn't matter.

With 30 points of mental energy and 600 points of physical strength consumed, it's not a problem.

The advantage is that it only requires 20 Destiny Points to process.

It requires a full 30 fewer Fate Points than a regular enhancement.

Isn't this delicious?

"Aunt Yue, thank you for your hard work. When you have the chance to upgrade your natal card in the future, I will protect you."

Coming to her senses, Li Wei quickly thanked Li Yue, who was cleaning up the mess.

The latter smiled slightly, "I probably won't get my destined card in this lifetime, and I don't have the ambition for it. My only thought now is to achieve level 3 awakening in all attributes, so that I can live for another 120 years. Then I'll try to save up a Kingdom Honor Medal, which can be exchanged for a six-star retirement card. In that case, I will have no regrets in this life!"

Looking at her, Li Wei felt that although Li Yue looked like a young girl, she was losing her spirit. Although she was not always frowning, she was always melancholy and seemed very tired. She would only smile occasionally when she was with him, but these smiles were as short as a fleeting flower, and after the smile, she would become indifferent again.

It seems that the last time I met Hathaway, she smiled so stunningly.

Recalling her performance against the Neanderthal Centurion Cao Nima a few months ago, her performance was simply too weak and pathetic.

In this state, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it's lifeless.

This won't do. Participating in a cross-border mission in this state is suicidal and could even drag others down, including Li Wei himself.

So, was the death after her previous failure too much of a blow to her?

I feel she's not even as energetic as my second aunt.

"Li Wei, what are you daydreaming about? After you've eaten and drunk your fill, take a nap. This kind of upgrade to the Destiny Matrix is ​​actually a shock to your Destiny. Next, you need to adjust your mindset, calm yourself down, and remember, remember, the professional card is ultimately an external thing. Integrating and improving your Destiny is the permanent way to go."

As she spoke, Li Yue had already tidied up the surroundings. She glanced back at Li Wei, who was still in a daze, shook her head speechlessly, and turned to leave.

After pondering for a long time, Li Wei felt that he needed to find a way to tutor Li Yue and help her overcome her inner demons...

Of course, he himself needs to take some time to reflect before he can upgrade the Farmer Card to five stars.

The conditions for upgrading to five stars were quite demanding, but fortunately, the problem is not so big now.

After harvesting the previous 400 acres of farmland, he gained 80,000 farming experience points in one go. Including the previous stages of reclamation, sowing, and weeding, his farming experience points have now reached 90,000, which is not far from the 100,000 experience points needed to reach the five-star level.

It has to be said that having your own territory makes being a farmer really appealing.

Of course, the card associated with your birth year is truly powerful.

So, can Zhao Xuanxuan also get a special character card? Special character cards shouldn't be limited to the first profession, right?
Craftsmen, herdsmen, fishermen, and scholars.

So, could my second aunt also get a birth year card?

As for Fisherman's Card?
Li Wei casually activated the Prestige System and, after a brief investigation, discovered that there were only 134 free people in his territory whose primary profession was Fisherman, and only one person had a Herdsman. This person was a free person responsible for taking care of the male and female horses, and it took him five or six months to obtain the Herdsman card.

If you want to raise horses in the future, the herdsman's card will be indispensable.

But this kind of card is not easy to obtain; you need to actually have a ranch with hundreds of cattle and horses to graze.

In addition, could we arrange a four-star scholar card for my second aunt's disciple, Little Isabel, in the future? That way, she would essentially be a spellcaster cultivated within the territory.

I'll tell my second aunt about this later.

A territory still needs its own spellcasters. Hathaway is fine, but Qin Yu is ultimately an outsider and cannot be completely trusted. Preparations must be made in this regard as soon as possible.

Speaking of which, my second aunt was really a strict teacher.

Currently, I have five young disciples, and I often scold them until they cry.

Anyway, my second aunt has countless students and mentors when it comes to potion making and kitchen management in the territory, plus the mage tower that's about to be built...

"Chirp chirp chirp!" A little bird suddenly landed not far away, carrying a small yellow flower in its beak, and chirped incessantly, even dancing around.

Li Wei was speechless!

This is the Red Witch Anna, who is bored and is flirting with him again. She has been doing this ever since he returned to the Riverbank Fortress, sending him a flirtatious glance every day.

Good guy!
Perseverance.

However, Li Wei saw through this behavior at a glance!
The reason the Red Witch had such an extreme, almost morbid, attraction to him was because his previous act of traveling three thousand miles to find Hathaway made her think that Li Wei was an exceptionally good man. So she started sending him all sorts of flirtatious glances and trying to seduce him, wishing she could consummate the relationship immediately.

The more Li Wei refused, the more enthusiastic she became.

But if Li Wei agrees one day, she will lose interest and immediately discard him like a worn-out shoe.

Hmm, isn't it amazing? Isn't it morbid? But that's the kind of energy she has!
In short, the red-clad witch Anna is like a legendary female demon, seducing, teasing, and being blatantly provocative to the young scholar who has strayed into the Spider Cave. But once the young scholar loses his will and begins to believe that he can actually accomplish something good, he will be swallowed whole without leaving even a bone fragment.

very dangerous.

Yes, spellcasters are all dangerous, especially witches. Male witches might turn you into a skeleton at most, but witches can kill you and destroy your spirit! (Dog head emoji)

The thought that four spellcasting witches had gathered in his territory made Li Wei feel incredibly proud.

Without his restraint, how many innocent and pure-hearted men would they have harmed?

So please don't shout things like "Release that witch!" I'm such a saint!

Next, Li Wei directly sent a letter to his second aunt through his prestige card to inquire about Isabel's matter, and specifically instructed her not to let Qin Yu know, so as not to affect the mage tower under construction.

As a result, the second aunt sent Zhao Xuanxuan to escort the little girl over the next afternoon.

That's really decisive and efficient.

"Li Wei, you did a good job. It's better to have your own than to have others'. Especially now that we've expanded so much, it's easy to be controlled if we don't have our own spellcasters. Of course, even if most people know this, it's useless, because they don't have four-star scholar cards."

When Li Yue praised him, it was indeed a point that even she had overlooked.

"Isabel, now I ask you, are you willing to become a powerful spellcaster like your master, or what people commonly call a witch?"

Li Wei then asked solemnly, "We still need to figure this out. My own will is very important. I don't want to cause psychological problems later. It's not like I have no other choice. My second aunt has four disciples."

"Please rest assured, my lord, I am willing to give everything for the territory, for you, my soul, my..."

"Stop, don't exaggerate like that. I'm not that evil. All I need is your loyalty. I also need you to abide by the laws of this territory and understand that being a spellcaster is just a profession, not much different from other professions."

"Now, Aunt Yue, I'm troubling you."

Li Wei nodded to Li Yue. Isabel would need a large amount of three-star mushroom soup to restore her mental strength. It was risky to force a fourteen-year-old girl to grow so quickly.

"Okay, actually it's not a big problem."

After making preparations, Li Wei first used a black iron token to upgrade Isabel's first professional physician card to four stars. Her second aunt had already traded the relevant experience to her.

So there won't be any problems.

After Isabel finished allocating her attribute points, her second aunt explained exactly how to do so.

The next day, Li Wei handed the four-star scholar card to Isabel. This was the most important step – the four-star scholar card!

Li Wei was so nervous that her heart was pounding.

Fortunately, it went smoothly in the end. Isabel only slept for three days before successfully completing the binding and activation. She suddenly became much smarter. Now she just needs to adapt little by little, especially since there is a three-star magic mine next door. They're willing to give her five units of magic power to work as an intern.

Overall, it's pretty good.

Li Yue was also very satisfied with this.

"Her growth potential is not high, not as good as your second aunt, much less as good as Heather, and only comparable to Anna. Without your help, she will never be able to break through to the third tier. But this is the best outcome for the territory. A second-tier spellcaster who can only stay in the territory is too important. If she were to reach the third tier, I'm afraid she would have different ideas."

Having settled this matter and confirmed that Isabel had already mastered the basics of manipulating the magic mine and could effectively strike the enemy in conjunction with Black Mountain Fortress, Li Wei and Li Yue began a period of intensive training.

But instead of lying down and sleeping soundly while enjoying the scenery, they embarked on a tough, arduous, and hellish training regimen.

Every day at 3 a.m., the two of them would get up and march 300 li (150 kilometers) fully equipped and carrying heavy loads. They would return at 7 a.m. sharp, rest for a while, wash up, eat breakfast, and then practice together.

First, Li Yue fought for half an hour in cavalry and Li Wei in infantry. Then, Li Wei switched to horseback and Li Yue fought for half an hour in infantry.

Anyway, whoever doesn't have a warhorse is at a disadvantage, and the infantry gets utterly ravaged.

The key is that neither side is holding back; they're fighting fiercely.

They continued until neither of them had any energy left.

After resting and having a snack, we started archery and throwing training, shooting and throwing arrows immediately.
