CHAPTER 34 OF 188

Chapter 34: Expedition to the North

Under the leadership of Li Xuan, the exploration team explored very quickly.

In less than half a day, Li Xuan led the team back.

A simple map appeared in front of Toji Hisami.

Jiuzhou Territory was still located on the seaside, and extending out from there, the coastline followed a north-south trend.

Going out to the east was the sea, still shrouded in fog.

To the west were continuous low mountains. There were three territories behind the mountains. According to observations, the highest one was level three.

Such a force was not a big problem for Toji Hisami.

What he was studying at this time was the points upgrade method used in this assessment.

All upgrades were related to territory crystals.

The crystal was bound to the Lord’s Palace. Unless the Lord’s Palace was moved together, the crystal could only stay in place.

This created a problem for everyone.

If someone wanted to go out to explore the light pillar with points items, they had to leave the territory.

But once someone left and the territory was empty, if they were attacked by someone at this time, it would be a direct robbery.

On the other hand, if someone stayed, if they failed to reach 500 points after one month, they would be eliminated directly.

This was really a dilemma.

Toji Hisami’s one thousand points, more than half of them came from himself.

He had the blessing of the gods, and each blessing was worth one hundred points.

The world of knowledge visualization was worth three hundred points.

As an artifact, the Weird Book was considered a foreign object and did not increase points.

The remaining 400 points came from the scale of territorial development, which was a comprehensive average score.

For example, one thousand acres of fertile land was worth one cent.

However, Toji Hisami’s farmland was cultivated by farming experts with agricultural titles, and its value was several times higher than normal fields.

In addition, the personal qualities of territory residents could also be converted into points.

All of the secondary professions in Toji Hisami’s territory possessed a variety of talents, far exceeding those in other territories.

After this conversion, it was only four hundred points.

For others who wanted to focus on developing their territory to reach 500 points, the difficulty could be imagined.

The first goal had to be exploring the wild light pillar.

Mysterious forces were definitely the key to improving points.

In addition, controlling other territories should also lead to corresponding growth.

In the Lord’s Hall, Lena listed the guesses for this assessment one by one.

This affairs officer warlock had very good logical thinking and quickly made the leaders of the territory clear about the current situation.

Under Lena’s emphasis, everyone understood that although Toji Hisami was currently far ahead, if someone was careless because of this, it was certain that they would be overtaken by others.

After all, they were in the territory and could see many light pillars appearing outside.

One month was enough time for many accidents to happen.

"The territory cannot be given up, Lena, you are in charge of the base camp."

"Lyra and I will lead an elite group of a hundred people to set out on an expedition."

Toji Hisami finally spoke up.

There were currently 300 troops in the territory, leaving 200 for Lena to defend the base camp. Relying on the city wall that had been built long ago, there was no big problem.

And Lena was also a warlock herself, with combat capabilities.

Blacksmiths Polo and Li Xuan were also very powerful.

As for Toji Hisami, his combination with Lyra was more effective.

The one hundred people he wanted to take away were all wearing the latest armor made by the territory and had outstanding strength.

Lena had no objection at all to Toji Hisami’s plan, because she knew that Toji Hisami also had an artifact magic book in his hand.

Moreover, Lyra was an S-class heroic soul up to level 30. Even if they were caught in a crowd of people, they could still protect themselves.

The only thing that was a little hard to accept was that after Toji Hisami left, the effect of the lord’s talent would be reduced by half.

After agreeing on the strategy, Toji Hisami immediately left the territory with Lyra and the guards.

The primary target was not the three territories behind the low mountains in the west, but the wilderness in the north.

In the three territories to the west, Toji Hisami asked people to leave sentinels at Aishan.

It could be used as a cordon. Once someone came from the west, the three territories would be alarmed.

This distance was enough to prepare the territory.

The north was full of wilderness. During Li Xuan’s initial inspection, he found no less than ten light pillars.

There were much more than in the south. Toji Hisami suspected that his territory might be in the south.

As for the forces that Zhao Kai and others had been plotting against Toji Hisami, Toji Hisami didn’t notice them.

What he said at the beginning was aimed at the Zhao family, not just Zhao Kai.

If he encountered them, he would destroy them easily.

If he couldn’t find them, he would explore the rewards first.

Anyway, as long as everyone continued to pass the level, all the territories would eventually gather together, and no one could escape by running.

Lyra had equipped this elite group with war horses, so everyone could move quite quickly.

It had to be said that Heaven Rewards Diligence and his talent were really powerful.

The horses he originally purchased actually began to evolve into war horses under Lyra’s conscious training.

Nowadays, their endurance, sprint speed, and weight-bearing capacity had been improved.

Under normal conditions, it was not a problem to travel 200 kilometers a day.

After the arrival of the dwarf Polo, dwarf forging technology was introduced.

The weight of the latest batch of armor in the territory had been reduced a lot, but the defense power had been increased by 50%.

There were hundreds of guards in this group, and everyone was a shield warrior who had changed their profession.

They carried a spear, a cutting knife, a large shield, and a small shield with them, as well as packages of food, grass, and medicine.

Riding horses in the wilderness, raising clouds of smoke and dust, the momentum was breathtaking.

Some ferocious beasts in the wilderness saw it and ran away from it, not daring to provoke it.
