For more than half a month since the cold wave came, the development of the territory has not stopped. During this period, a total of four important things happened.
The first thing was that Chu Xin completed the cracking of the four storage rings.
The magic restrictions on these rings are extraordinary. They all have the strength of six or seven stars. He was able to lift them thanks to a new ability after being promoted to a five-star lord.
After being promoted to a five-star lord, Chu Xin will receive the blessing of the entire territory when he is within the territory, and the spiritual power he mobilizes reaches an astonishing seven-star level.
At the same time, with his excellent mental control ability, he forcibly created a spiral drilling machine made entirely of mental energy, and drilled out several important magic nodes where magic was prohibited, and then he was able to open the four rings.
Relying on the resources in the ring, Chu Xin fully equipped the territory with high-end combat power.
Friday obtained a set of six-star cursed armor. In addition to its extremely strong defensive capabilities, it also comes with a large-scale evil curse field, which can cause all targets entering the field to suffer multiple curse effects such as physical loss and weakness.
The very useless thing about this cursed field is that it does not distinguish between friend and foe, including the wearer himself, who will also be affected by the curse. No wonder Clayman has always buried it in the corner of the storage ring.
But now, for Friday, this useless effect does not exist, because the evil curse field does not take effect on the undead.
This set of cursed armor should have been tailor-made for undead creatures from the beginning.
Several undead leaders under Friday's command also changed their guns for guns. Shadow Skeleton's daggers were also replaced by the pair of six-star soul-draining daggers used by Hansam, which have many special abilities such as destroying demons and devouring souls.
Clayman put it away as soon as the duel ended, fearing that Chu Xin would take it away, but in the end, the pair of daggers fell into Chu Xin's hands.
Shadow Skull's current strength has reached six stars, and its stealth ability has been greatly improved compared to before. It can continuously jump with the help of shadows, and its assassination ability and escape ability are both top-notch.
This pair of soul-sucking daggers makes up for its shortcomings in attack capabilities. With its current strength, the assassination success rate of opponents of the same star level is quite high.
The King Kong Skeleton received a huge iron rod made of Sunken Star mother-iron, which was almost twice as heavy as before. Even the magic pattern mecha was unable to bear the stick.
Bone Arrow received a six-star high-quality longbow with various special effects such as piercing and agility. As Friday's most trusted Wende, he was rewarded with a six-star peak-quality two-handed sword.
In addition, there was a batch of four-star and five-star equipment. Chu Xin threw them all at Galaxy and handed them over to it for distribution.
It's a pity this time that Xiaoqing didn't find a suitable dagger, so he could only use the original Qingfeng Liuyue.
Its strength just broke through to five stars last week, and the Soul-Destroying Snake Pupil has been further strengthened into the Soul-Herding Pupil, which can directly imprison the target's soul.
Rosa, on the other hand, is still in the state of bloodline awakening and has not yet awakened from it, but the power emanating from her body is becoming increasingly astonishing. It feels like she is awakening a great bloodline this time.
It is worth mentioning that Chu Xin harvested a large number of magic scrolls this time, and he successfully replaced several major magic spells in Ryan's magic book.
There are two types of magic book pages without attributes, one of which is engraved with flicker. This is an ability that originally belonged to Clayman's apprentice's magic book. It can instantly move to any position within ten meters, which is a very strong life-saving ability.
It was successfully transferred to Ryan's magic book and became permanent magic. As for the five-star magic book with only three pages left, it has been completely scrapped.
The other one is engraved with Sheep Transformation, a very interesting spell that can force the target to turn into a sheep, but it will be released immediately after being attacked. It is more suitable for control.
The wind spell page is engraved with the protection of the wind, a five-star single-target auxiliary spell, with the ability to deflect attacks and accelerate at the same time.
The fire spell page is engraved with a lava monster and a five-star summoning spell. It's a pity that this guy is not called Malphite.
The thunder spell is engraved with Dark Light Thunder Armor, a six-star defensive spell that summons a thunder armor that not only has defensive power, but can also launch lightning to counterattack attackers, providing both offense and defense.
Earth spells are engraved with the fury of the earth, and six-star battlefield spells can cause small-scale ground cracks. Whether used for sieges or battlefield attacks, they are both good abilities.
Ryan's magic book was successfully strengthened into an artifact. With it, Chu Xin became extremely rich in magic methods.
The second thing is that the territory's troop nests were successfully strengthened, and troop production increased significantly.
This is a new function unlocked by Chu Xin. It can sacrifice the same-star troop nests, strengthen the existing troop nests in the territory, and increase the troop output of the troop nests.
The troop nest can currently be strengthened up to three times. The first time requires one troop nest of the same star level, the second time requires the consumption of two troop nests of the same star level, and the third time requires the consumption of four. The corresponding troop recruitment quantity will also increase gradually. times, up to eight times the original output.
In the past half month, all the troop nests that Chu Xin obtained in dungeons and stronghold boxes were used to strengthen them.
In the end, the Shooting Sound Battalion was strengthened twice, quadrupling the unit output, and could recruit 40 soldiers per week; the Dark Moon Werewolf was strengthened once, and 20 soldiers could be recruited per week; the Giant Eagle was strengthened three times, and 192 soldiers could be recruited per week. Only; the fierce lion warriors are strengthened twice, and 48 can be recruited every week.
This also led to a huge increase in the size of the troops in Chu Xin's territory. The number of Dark Moon Werewolves and Shesheng Battalion finally exceeded one hundred, the giant eagles quickly formed a large scale, and the air force team was unprecedentedly powerful.
Unfortunately, the six-star troop nest has never been obtained, and the magic pattern mecha camp has not been strengthened in any way. So far, there are only forty-eight, and it has not yet broken through the fifty threshold.
The substantial increase in the number of troops also brought about a large consumption of food and grass, and Chu Xin had to stuff most of the troops into the barracks.
The third thing is that after successfully wiping out the territory of the Corpse King on Friday and controlling a large number of areas, the territory unlocked the development function.
Chu Xin successfully established a base in the Broken Wind Continent, the world of the undead that Friday explored.
The sub-base also inherits many functions such as construction and hiding in the territory. The only thing lacking is that the number of buildings is too few, but it is better than the large number of people. A large number of undead are wandering in the territory.
There is no change of seasons in the world of the undead, so there was no rest during Friday, and he continued to explore the world of the undead and expand the scope of his territory.
The number of the undead army under its command has now exceeded 5,000. If we count the miscellaneous ordinary undead, the number has already exceeded 10,000 words, and it can be regarded as a small prince.
But there is still a long way to go before becoming king. There is a ruler in the world of the undead, and the strength of the Eight Stars is far beyond what Friday can shake now.
However, when the decisive battle officially begins on Friday, Chu Xin will be able to lend a helping hand.
The fourth thing is about the dungeons. The two major war training dungeons, Battle of Bishui Pass and Road to Escape, have accumulated enough dungeon record points, and Chu Xin successfully redeemed them for the reward items he needs.
Rigid body talents, advanced pathfinding skills, advanced detection skills... These talents have greatly strengthened the strength of Chu Xin and his followers such as Xiao Qing and Wu Wu.
At the same time, the golden villain has also loaded three high-star dungeons, one five-star dungeon, and two six-star dungeons, but none of them have been cleared until now.
The main reason is that the dungeon is extremely powerful, and Chu Xin is not willing to spend the territory's troops to clear the level, so the progress has been stagnant.
In fact, during the process of exploring the dark land later, he encountered a large number of loadable dungeons, but because there were three uncleared dungeons, the golden villain could not continue loading.
Chu Xin was not particularly anxious. There was still time this winter, so he was going to take his time.
The territory had made sufficient preparations for this cold wave. Whether it was food or heating, there were not many problems, so Chu Xin did not feel any pressure in his heart.
The coming of the cold wave will actually have little impact on forces with a certain scale and civilization.
But those alien beasts and alien races seemed much more anxious.
Most of them failed to store enough food in time. Due to the pressure of survival, they had to search for prey everywhere to maintain their livelihood.
Such a huge race of ogres wandered next to Chu Xin's territory.
For some reason, when the other party wandered near Chu Xin's territory, he actually stationed himself there, leaning against the rocky mountain that his territory transformed into, and used it as a base to explore everywhere.
The territory is currently disguised as a steep rocky mountain, which is very desolate and bare.
But even so, they were attracted by this group of ogres. I really don’t know whether to call them unlucky or lucky.
The ethnic strength of this ogre tribe is not weak. The racial strength is generally around three to four stars. The strength of serious ogre warriors is about five stars, and a small number of elites have reached six stars.
There seem to be two ogres with seven-star strength hidden among them. One of them should be the leader, but Chu Xin is not sure about the other.
The opponent's formation was densely packed, and he couldn't detect the specific information about the seven-star ogres inside.
The ogre tribe is very large, numbering at least five to six thousand, so Chu Xin has never taken the initiative to provoke them.
The main thing is to attack them. The risks outweigh the benefits. Even if you wipe them all out, you will only get a six to seven-star war chest at most, but there will be no territory to dismantle.
Moreover, the ogre tribe is very poor and does not like the Hasak tribe, which carries a large number of cattle and sheep. Chu Xin really has no interest in doing anything to them.
The ogre had always thought that this side of Chu Xin's territory was a desolate rocky mountain. He did not explore this side and never discovered Chu Xin's territory.
Therefore, the two sides have maintained an amicable relationship.
But now, this balance has been actively broken by the ogre.
Just now, several ogres broke into Chu Xin's territory and broke through the disguise of Yun Mengmeng. They were surprised to find that this stone mountain was fake!
This stone mountain turned out to be a fairyland-like area.
As a lord, Chu Xin immediately noticed the intruding ogres and couldn't help but shook his head with regret.
We originally wanted to be peaceful neighbors, but now it seems that it is impossible.
In the view of the watchtower he inserted, he could already see the ogres hurriedly returning to the tribe, and the entire ogre tribe instantly became restless.
In fact, Chu Xin could have made these ogres disappear silently, but he didn't. Instead, he let these fish swim back to their nests.
Next, it depends on the ogre's own choice, whether to bring the fish over to bite the bait, or to continue to live in peace.
Facts have proved that the opponent chose to attack, the entire ogre tribe took action, and a vanguard of three hundred people was quickly assembled.
Chu Xin silently watched the ogre vanguard advance into the territory, without much worry in his heart. With the territory's current defense and strength, there would not be much of a problem in eating this ogre tribe.
Since the other party took the initiative to attack, he had no choice but to deal with them reluctantly.
In an outdoor duel, the loss of troops may be huge, but if it is a territory defense battle, Chu Xin will be much more relaxed. He has too many things to rely on.
There are not only many defense towers in the territory, but also various ability blessings. This is his home court.
It just so happened that Chu Xin also wanted to test the territory's current city defense capabilities, and also add some fun to this boring winter.
After the territory was established, no troops have been able to invade the territory, and there has never been a chance to experience the territory's powerful defense capabilities.
The ogre vanguard went all the way in and soon saw the city dominating the surface. Judging from the architectural style, it was obviously a human city!
All the ogres became excited instantly. They seemed to have smelled the delicious flesh and blood of humans. There must be many, many people in such a huge city.
It's just that for such a huge city, their small vanguard does not have the ability to capture it.
Making a quick decision, the vanguard sent people back to report the news, while the remaining people quietly dispersed and began to explore the situation near the city.
To the left, there is an open land of the dead, exuding a disgusting aura, which seems to have strange power.
To the right, there is a large body of water with only a narrow passage in the middle, making it very inconvenient to walk.
The ogres exploring on both sides quickly reported back information. The ogre vanguard captain heard the reports from the two teams and had a general situation in his mind.
Outside the territory, the ogre tribe was shocked when they heard that there was a human city hidden in the stone mountain.
The entire ogre tribe is now worried about hunger, and such a place falling from the sky cannot be better for them.
With almost no hesitation or any thoughts of probing, the ogre leader immediately organized all the tribesmen to gather and rushed toward the city.
