The entire territory transformed into a beam of light, rapidly moving towards an unknown void channel. They could only see the sky changing quickly, as if moving at high speed within a tunnel.
In just a few seconds, a blue sky and white clouds appeared above the entire territory. With a "boom," the whole territory landed somewhere on Lord Continent.
His territory was vast, with a large portion of it empty.
[Welcome to Lord Continent!]
Upon the territory's arrival, he received a notification.
Territory Prompt: "Would you like to retract excess territory space? Territory size can be freely increased or decreased."
"Retract excess territory space!"
He hadn't expected this. It made things much more convenient. If the territory size was insufficient, he could increase it at any time.
The excess parts of the territory immediately began to disappear, leaving only the core building area.
He had finally arrived at Lord Continent.
Here, he could explore the entire Lord World and embark on various adventures.
Upon descending to Lord Continent, one would randomly arrive in a certain region of the Lord World.
Furthermore, many things could happen after landing.
You might encounter a monster you cannot resist the moment you arrive, which could completely destroy you and your territory.
Or you might land in a very dangerous place, requiring specific conditions to venture out.
Perhaps you would land directly on the ocean and be swallowed along with your territory by a sea behemoth.
Even more extreme, you might encounter unknown attacks right after landing and die inexplicably.
Every arrival on Lord Continent was an extremely dangerous adventure.
This was also why there was a distinction between adventurous lords and farming lords.
For adventurous lords, every arrival on Lord Continent was a journey of exploration.
Farming lords, however, were different. They did not participate in any adventures, only focusing on developing their territory, cultivating various agricultural products, or acting as merchants, opening shops in the market.
They would choose to descend to Lord Continent, select a place with a good environment, and stay there to develop peacefully.
Some farming lords did not choose to descend, relying on their own resources and wealth to develop in some unknown space.
New lords could descend to Lord Continent for free for the first time.
Subsequent descents to Lord Continent would incur fees.
The fees increased with the territory's level.
His territory was currently level 50, and each descent required five million spirit coins.
This was a mere trifle to him, not amounting to anything.
He had to upgrade his territory's level.
Because with the "Myriad Realms Virtual Mall," for every additional person, the daily profit was immeasurable.
A mere five million spirit coins was nothing.
Moreover, he didn't need to descend to Lord Continent frequently.
If he was lucky and landed in a resource-rich area, he might not need to move for ten or eight years.
The place he landed was quite good; he didn't encounter any monsters.
It was a plain area surrounded by mountains and water in the distance, looking quite decent.
Next, he ordered Chen Qingzhi, "Chen Qingzhi, arrange personnel to conduct a carpet search around the territory, centered on the territory, and be ready to fight at any time."
"Yes!"
Chen Qingzhi nodded in assent and began to make arrangements.
Soldiers departed from outside the territory one by one.
He did indeed find many problems with the territory.
If these people had horses, their speed would increase significantly.
It was only after practical experience that the territory's shortcomings could be discovered.
He would note these down and then address them.
However, he had no intention of purchasing horses.
Because he had better options.
Unfortunately, there were no special forces. If he had modern special forces, they could use drones for reconnaissance directly.
Everything was temporary.
Mounts would come.
Special forces would come.
Beautiful women would also... well, never mind that.
He began to communicate with Xiao Wei, asking it to find some portable walkie-talkies and cameras, and also explained various issues, especially signal quality, which must not be poor.
He also had Xiao Wei search for some high-tech reconnaissance equipment, which was much better than dispatching soldiers for reconnaissance.
Then he instructed Xiao Wei to arrange for people to purchase them, as he had his uses for them.
In this way, if the dispatched soldiers encountered monsters they couldn't react to in time, the cameras would know in advance.
Although he didn't have a modern command center yet.
Everything would come.
It was just the beginning; everything had to be done step by step.
The theoretical knowledge from school was of little use to him.
Because no one could have imagined that he would possess such a heaven-defying structure as the "Myriad Realms Virtual Mall."
He could trade with worlds of science fiction, wuxia, fantasy, dream, magic, and post-apocalyptic settings.
This made his combat methods extremely varied and advanced.
Imagine, if he now possessed a modern army capable of using various advanced technological weapons, he could quickly scout the surroundings by simply dispatching reconnaissance aircraft, and accurately display the surrounding terrain on a computer.
Why would he need to send people out?
Of course, this did not mean that a modern army was far superior to these armies wielding cold weapons.
On the contrary, the combat power these armies could possess far surpassed that of modern armies.
Because they could upgrade, cultivate, use various skills, and even become immortal generals.
But modern armies were different. They could only rely on technological weapons to be powerful; their own strength was not very strong. Once their technological weapons were damaged, their combat power would be worthless in front of these soldiers.
A person's energy was limited. It was impossible to master both advanced modern weaponry and cultivate and learn fantastical skills simultaneously.
Different professions made it impossible to learn those professional skills.
Only Zhou Yan could do it.
Because his profession was to be able to learn all professional skills, disregarding any profession, and without any limitations, which was a very powerful profession.
Half an hour later, Xiao Wei informed him that some items had been purchased and asked him to test them.
All things had to be tested to know if they worked.
He took out several high-tech computers and several miniature smart reconnaissance drones from the [Treasure Room]. They were very small, only the size of a little finger.
He then took out a large batch of new helmets.
These helmets not only provided defense but also had functions for dialogue, communication, and recording.
He didn't buy many, only about a hundred.
Xiao Wei told him that these items alone cost millions of spirit coins.
Money, to him, was just a string of numbers.
As long as the items were useful, tens of millions were insignificant.
"Lord, what are these?"
Diao Chan and the others were very curious, even thinking these were similar to items from the [Cinema].
Zhou Yan briefly explained the functions of these items to them and then asked for Chen Qingzhi to be called.
