Upon arriving in this world of ice and snow, Zhou Yan was about to take action, but he quickly discovered monsters charging towards his territory from afar.
"Oh, monsters are attacking the territory so soon, that saves me the trouble of searching for them."
Zhou Yan waited for these monsters to attack.
He really liked these suicidal monsters, like giving away free kills.
The territory was vast now, but the number of soldiers was still too small. He needed a lot of Soul Coins to summon more soldiers.
He hadn't even summoned a single soldier for his [Tiger Leopard Cavalry] yet.
He also needed more [Barracks] buildings.
However, [Barracks] buildings were hard to obtain and difficult to purchase on the market.
They could only be acquired by descending onto the Lord Continent. He had obtained several Barracks buildings last time.
He hoped for a great harvest this time as well.
His eyesight was pretty good now, but he still took out a long-range telescope, which he had obtained from opening treasure chests.
It was an enhanced telescope capable of seeing scenes from very far away.
Not only he had it, but many generals in the territory were also equipped with these.
He saw that there were many monsters, densely packed, all white, as if blended into the snow-white ice and snow.
Having monsters was a good thing; it saved him the time of searching for them.
His purpose for coming here was to hunt monsters and obtain treasure chests.
Aside from some major events, this was the only way to obtain Soul Coins.
His territory, after upgrading to level fifty, gained several excellent functions. As long as monsters were within the attack range of the defense towers, their treasure chests would be automatically picked up after they were killed.
However, monster corpses were different; soldiers still needed to leave the city to collect or gather them.
He began to examine the strength of these monsters.
[Monster: Snowball]
[Quality: Demonized]
[Race: Ice and Snow Tribe]
[Level: Level 50]
[Special: Ice and Snow Element]
[Description: Originally a group of gentle snowballs, they were demonized by some energy, becoming violent and bloodthirsty.]
"Oh, demonized monsters? This place seems interesting."
He became curious about these monsters.
Since these monsters were demonized, there was a high possibility that a stronger demonized monster existed here.
Textbooks had mentioned such situations before. In the Lord's world, there were many demonized, deified, evil-corrupted, and even brainwashed by various powerful races.
When encountering such situations, most people would either choose to leave or take a gamble.
If they could defeat those demonized monsters, they might gain unexpected rewards.
However, if he himself were to be demonized, he might also become one of these monsters.
The entire territory might become one of those demonized monsters.
In the Lord's world, there were no shortage of territories that were eternally demonized.
The strength of these monsters was difficult to determine. Without sufficient power, the best option was to leave immediately.
Danger and opportunity coexisted; it depended on whether he had the strength.
Besides these Level 50 Snowball monsters, there were other types of monsters, Level 55 Snow Apes. These monsters were demonized elites, and there were even a few demonized leaders.
Level 30 Demonized Elves, Level 35 Ice and Snow Hearts, Level 40 Frosts, and he even saw flying monsters, a group of Level 45 Ice and Snow Wings, and Level 39 Ice Storms, with several flying demon beasts as well.
There were dozens of types of monsters, attacking the territory from all directions.
"I wonder if these monsters can cross the moat."
He was a bit curious.
Upon discovering the monsters, Chen Qingzhi immediately began to arrange for soldiers to defend on the [Great Wall].
The entire territory was protected by formations, so he was not worried about these monsters posing a threat to the territory from the air.
His territory was no longer what it used to be. No matter how many monsters came, they could not cause any damage.
When the monsters entered the attack range of the defense towers, the towers began to unleash terrifying attacks.
Flames, ice, meteorites, storms, blades, earthquakes...
His defense towers had surrounded the entire city wall. Therefore, under this round of defense tower attacks, all the monsters were eliminated.
There were so many monsters that they even caused a single spot to be bombarded three times by the defense towers due to insufficient numbers.
He saw the monster corpses outside, all of them destroyed by the defense tower attacks.
"What a waste."
Zhou Yan saw that these monsters could yield a lot of materials, and it was a shame they were destroyed by the defense tower attacks.
Monsters: You are truly ruthless, not even sparing our corpses.
There were still many monsters, continuously attacking the territory from all directions.
Unfortunately, the defense towers of Zhou Yan's territory were too powerful. These monsters had no way to get close.
As soon as they entered the territory's range, they were annihilated by the defense towers.
This left a group of soldiers waiting in vain.
They were all ready to unleash a great slaughter.
But the result?
They didn't even reach the edge of the moat.
They saw a monster that seemed quite high-level; upon checking its data, it was a Level 60 Golden Boss.
But after one wave of defense tower attacks, and during the second bombardment of its corpse, the corpse was blown away to who knows where.
The areas bombarded by the defense towers turned into a bloody world.
They became forbidden zones.
No monster could charge within a hundred meters of the defense towers.
It wasn't that these monsters were not numerous enough, nor were they not powerful enough. It was entirely because the defense towers of Zhou Yan's territory were simply too overpowered.
The monsters in the air had it even worse. They were blown to pieces by a barrage of attacks from the sky before they could fly in for long.
A group of soldiers could only watch boredly as the defense towers unleashed wave after wave of attacks. They also wanted to take action, but the defense towers didn't give them the opportunity.
Zhou Yan lost interest in watching. He realized he had built his territory too safely; monsters couldn't even attack it.
He went to an open space in the territory and took out the [Lucky Stone].
He clicked on "Build."
The territory prompted: "Building [Lucky Stone], [Lucky Stone] evolves into [Lucky God Statue]."
Before Zhou Yan, a tall statue rose from the ground, dozens of meters high.
He looked at the statue and was speechless.
"Why does this statue look more and more like me....."
Zhou Yan was speechless. The statue was built entirely in his likeness.
Although he was handsome and dashing, having himself made into a statue gave him a peculiar feeling of looking at himself.
[Building: Lucky God Statue]
[Level: Level 1 (Upgrade required)]
[Quality: Unknown]
[Special Attribute 1: Lucky attribute of all residents in the territory +10]
The first attribute increased the luck of all residents, which surprised him slightly.
He began to upgrade the [Lucky God Statue]. After upgrading it to Level 20, Lucky Spirit Stones would be needed for further upgrades.
Fortunately, he still had some left, so he continued to upgrade.
Finally, he upgraded the [Lucky God Statue] to Level 30, at which point he ran out of materials.
The attributes of the [Lucky God Statue] had completely changed, and two more attributes had been added.
[Special Attribute 1: Lucky attribute of all residents in the territory +40]
[Special Attribute 2: Lucky of all residents in the territory +30%]
[Special Attribute 3: The territory is blessed by the Heavenly Dao.]
