Ten minutes passed quickly.
[Lord Continent World Announcement: Mid-Autumn Festival Event, officially begins, all territories, teleportation commencing!]
The entire territory began to teleport. With a roar, they arrived at a plain.
Zhou Yan leaped into the air, his long robe fluttering in the wind, and landed on the giant dragon head above the main gate of the territory's city walls, exuding an air of majestic authority that overlooked all beings.
Upon entering the event space, Yin Lihua and the others began deploying intelligent reconnaissance drones, over a thousand of them, flying out in all directions.
Zhou Yan looked around and saw a dense horde of monsters charging towards the territory.
"Lord, the reconnaissance drones have detected a large number of monsters heading towards the territory," Yin Lihua transmitted to Zhou Yan as she observed the monsters on the screen.
"Send me the visuals from all four directions," Zhou Yan requested.
"Understood." Yin Lihua sent four sets of images to Zhou Yan, depicting the scenes from each direction. The monsters in every direction were densely packed, like countless ants.
"So many monsters." Zhou Yan was surprised, then he laughed and said, "Good fortune. This wave of monsters will bring us many rewards."
His territory's defenses were formidable. The more monsters there were, the greater the rewards he would receive.
The territory's defense towers, those with longer attack ranges, had already begun their assault. Beams of fire, ice, storms, blades, wind blades, infernos, and meteorites covered the entire sky, striking the monsters outside the territory.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The dense monster horde suffered terrifying attacks. Countless monsters were pulverized into dust by the powerful onslaught. The monsters from all directions were completely annihilated at a certain warning line.
As the monsters were eliminated, Zhou Yan saw his Soul Coins increasing at an astonishing rate. Furthermore, because the [Treasure Vault] had been upgraded to a high level, it could automatically pick up equipment dropped by monsters eliminated by the territory's defense towers.
Consequently, the equipment he acquired also began to increase. He also discovered that the Soul Coins dropped by these monsters were double that of the outside world!
If a level 50 monster outside the territory dropped a silver treasure chest, and an ordinary lord could only obtain a maximum of 50 Soul Coins, here, they would directly receive 100 Soul Coins.
Zhou Yan's territory benefited from various building bonuses, coupled with extremely high luck, allowing him to obtain several times more Soul Coins than others.
A single level 50 monster could bring him 300 to 500 Soul Coins.
Such an event was simply his lucky day.
His Soul Coins were increasing at an alarming rate, with millions of Soul Coins being added almost every second.
In a short period, his Soul Coins surpassed tens of millions, which made Zhou Yan very happy.
"I like this Mid-Autumn Festival event."
These monsters would not disappear in a short time, and he didn't need to worry about them breaching the territory's defense towers anyway.
He flew directly to the [Hall of Heroes] as he held quite a few hero summoning tokens.
He had obtained several hero summoning tokens before, but their quality was too low, and he hadn't acquired any heroes that satisfied him. The hero summoning tokens obtained this time were of S-grade quality, and they were sure to summon excellent heroes.
This time, he definitely needed to summon generals, so he took out a hero summoning token and began to summon a general.
[Hall of Heroes] prompt: "Using Hero Summoning Token, summoned General Dian Wei!"
"It's Dian Wei, the 'Vicious Rogue of Antiquity'!" Zhou Yan was delighted. He remembered the famous generals of the Three Kingdoms and a catchy rhyme.
"One Lü, two Zhao, three Dian Wei,
Four Guan, five Ma, six Zhang Fei.
Huang Xu, Sun Tai, the two Xiahou,
Two Zhangs, Xu Pang, Gan Zhou, Wei.
Divine Spear Zhang Xiu and Wen Yan,
Though brave, alas, their fate was grim.
The twenty-four great generals of the Three Kingdoms,
At the end, Deng Ai and Jiang Wei."
Dian Wei ranking third among the Three Kingdoms generals was enough to prove his strength.
A powerfully built man with a remarkably large waist bowed to Zhou Yan and said, "Dian Wei greets the Lord!"
"Excellent, Dian Wei, you will fight bravely by my side from now on," Zhou Yan said.
"Yes, Lord!" Dian Wei replied promptly.
Zhou Yan once again began to use a hero summoning token.
[Hall of Heroes] prompt: "Using Hero Summoning Token, summoned General Zhang Xiu!"
"Divine Spear Zhang Xiu!" Zhou Yan was a little curious. Could it be that everyone summoned today would be from the Three Kingdoms?
"Zhang Xiu greets the Lord." Zhang Xiu had a very ordinary appearance, but his strength was formidable. Like Dian Wei, he was a top-tier general.
Furthermore, Zhang Xiu was Zhao Yun's senior brother.
Zhou Yan waved his hand, indicating for him to stand aside for now.
[Hall of Heroes] prompt: "Using Hero Summoning Token, summoned General Wen Pin!"
"Wen Pin, isn't this guy Zhang Xiu's junior brother? Good heavens, all three of Zhao Yun's sworn brothers are here!" Zhou Yan was quite surprised.
Wen Pin's strength was actually not weak, and he was also a talented commander, having led large armies to defeat Guan Yu twice.
It could be said that Wen Pin was also an overlooked general. It was only because he didn't have many opportunities to display his talents that his reputation was not high. However, being a top-tier general was enough to prove that his strength was not much worse than Zhang Xiu's.
With Zhang Xiu, Zhao Yun, and Wen Pin all present, he also hoped to summon their master, Tong Yuan. Although Tong Yuan's stories were not numerous, the fact that he trained three powerful generals was enough to demonstrate his profound strength and wisdom.
[Hall of Heroes] prompt: "Using Hero Summoning Token, summoned General Hou Junji!"
"Hou Junji greets the Lord." Hou Junji had a decent appearance and seemed a bit cunning. However, the people summoned had one hundred percent loyalty, so there was no need to worry about betrayal.
"Hou Junji, isn't this one of the twenty-four meritorious officials in the Tang Dynasty's Lingyan Pavilion? I didn't expect to summon him." Zhou Yan had expected more figures from the Three Kingdoms, but it turned out otherwise.
Hou Junji was indeed very capable, having participated in the demise of the Eastern Turkic Khaganate, the great defeat of the Tuyuhun, and the destruction of Gaochang. His achievements were outstanding, and both his strength and command abilities were quite remarkable talents.
[Hall of Heroes] prompt: "Using Hero Summoning Token, summoned General Yang Zaixing!"
When Zhou Yan saw the last person was Yang Zaixing, he thought of this man's spirit of standing firm even when pierced by ten thousand arrows, truly deserving of everyone's respect.
Moreover, when Yang Zaixing's corpse was burned by the Jin army, the number of arrowheads found after incineration was as much as 2 liters!
This was an astonishing scene that was hard to believe.
Yang Zaixing was a fierce general, but not suited to be a commander. His strength was absolutely unquestionable.
Since Yang Zaixing had been summoned, he would not let him suffer the same fate as in his past life.
"Yang Zaixing greets the Lord." Yang Zaixing's voice was resonant. Seeing him, one felt that this person was extraordinary, possessing a very hearty demeanor and a sense of forward momentum.
With five fierce generals at his disposal, Zhou Yan was extremely happy and said to them, "The territory is in great need of you now. Follow me."
"Yes, Lord!" The five followed behind Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan checked his Soul Coins, which had already reached several hundred million. Thus, he began to max out the levels of the five individuals, as well as Zhao Yun's level.
Afterward, Zhou Yan took out five sets of diamond-quality equipment for them to use.
