The city of the world.

The air seemed to be quiet.

These lords of the city didn't seem to expect that their lord would die in front of them so easily.

Then there was a burst of happiness in their hearts.

"Good death!"

"This nightmare is finally dead!"

"Finally, I don't have to bear his oppression in the future!"

"Happy!"

……

Some of the people of the world looked at Zheng Huaiba's corpse with a look of relief.

But there was also another part of the people of the world, who looked at Zhou Zhou with a worried expression.

They are the people who just said good things about Zheng Huaiba.

At this time, seeing that Zheng Huaiba was dead, he was afraid that this fierce lord would turn his head and solve them.

Then they saw Zhou Zhou looking at them.

"What happened in the past, let it pass."

"Join Sun City and become my leader."

"I can blame you for the past."

He said lightly.

He understood that these people were probably also oppressed and coerced, so he said such unconscionable words.

It's all poor people.

Zhou Zhou naturally would not punish them.

"We are willing to join Sun City and become your most loyal people!"

They knelt down and said in fear.

The old man also pulled his grandson to his knees.

A line of text prompts appeared in front of Zhou Zhou.

[18 outcasts asked to join your realm and become your people, do you agree?] ]

After Zhou Zhou agreed, he first asked them to get up, and then checked their personal information.

Of the 18 lords, 12 were ordinary people.

Among the remaining 6 people are one Black Iron Junior Physician, three Black Iron Junior Blacksmiths, one Black Iron Intermediate Cook, and one Black Iron Senior Architect.

Zhou Zhou was very satisfied after reading it.

They are all talents that the territory needs!

Now that he has more people under his command, there is more demand for people who live and work.

These 6 life professionals can solve his urgent needs a little.

The number of people is a little smaller.

But it's better than nothing.

And he also found one thing.

It's that these people are exceptionally loyal to themselves.

It's generally above 70 points!

Especially the old man and the little child.

Loyalty to oneself is even more direct one 95 points, one 98 points!

Zhou Zhou probably understood the reason why their loyalty was so high.

So he didn't say much.

After that, he dropped a drop of golden corpse water on the corpse of the overlord lord, and then asked Bai Yun and the others to bring it back to the territory together for a while.

He's still on video.

Therefore, it is not possible to withdraw the loot in the main body of the Dominator for the time being.

Then Zhou Zhou led everyone into Tianxia City.

Under the initiative of these lords, Bai Yun and the others quickly found the resource storage point of Tianxia City.

They received a total of 500 units of wood, 400 units of stone, 200 units of metal, and 350 units of fine sand.

There are also 22 Black Iron Grade Mist Hearts.

and more than 20 units of Black Iron Lower-Rank Black-tailed Mist Scorpion Flesh.

The loot was pitifully small.

Far less than what he had gained in the Crimson Lord's realm.

Zhou Zhou was completely surprised by this.

How can a Terran lord territory that has just developed for five days compare with a scarlet lord who has been developing for an unknown amount of time?

"Your Lord."

"I know the man who just died, and he built a dwelling as his harem."

"The three girls they tortured to death."

"It should be inside."

A young man with a somewhat obscene appearance walked over and said respectfully.

Zhou Zhou glanced at him.

It was discovered that he was the only senior architect of the Black Iron here.

The other party seemed to see the meaning in Zhou Zhou's eyes, and immediately knelt on the ground in panic.

"Your Lord, spare your life!"

"I'm the architect who presides over the construction of the houses."

"But I didn't know they used it like that!"

"If I knew that they would use it like this, I wouldn't have built it for him if I died!"

Zhou Zhou shook his head.

"I said it."

"The past is in the past."

"And the other lords didn't accuse you of anything bad."

"I'm sure you just had to build them out of necessity."

"Your Lord, be wise!"

The black iron senior architect was stunned for a moment, and then moved to tears.

Zhou Zhou was speechless.

Then he asked the other party to take him to the so-called 'harem', and after coming to the place, Zhou Zhou found that it was still locked.

Fortunately, the other party had the key, and after opening the door, a smell of rotting corpses came to his face, almost smoking Zhou Zhou out.

He forced himself to look inside at the smell of corpses.

It turned out that three female corpses that had maggots were seen.

This tragic situation made Zhou Zhou stunned for a moment.

After a long time.

He came back to his senses, asked Bai Yun to come over, and asked someone to clean up the three corpses and bury them properly.

After the burial, tell the pair of grandchildren.

Bai Yun took the order and left.

After that, Zhou Zhou came to the lord's wooden house with 5 sword and shield soldiers, and after carefully searching the place and finding that there was no loot, he set his eyes on the stone tablet of the black iron intermediate territory.

He had five sword and shield soldiers start cutting down the monument of the territory.

A moment later.

The Territory Stone Monument was shattered.

A black iron mid-level territory order appeared in front of his eyes.

Zhou Zhou put his hand on top of it.

A text prompt appears.

[Is there a territorial order charged?] ]

"Yes."

Zhou Zhoudao.

The next second.

Smack.

This black iron intermediate territory order fell weakly into his hands.

"The third black iron level territory has been ordered."

"When I get back, I can upgrade my territory."

He looked at the territory and a smile appeared on his face.

Zhou Zhou had a faint premonition.

If your territory is promoted from the Black Iron Superior to the Bronze Lower, I'm afraid there will be a big change.

After Zhou Zhou confirmed that there was no loot to take away in this territory, he took everyone and set off to return to Sunny City.

It has just departed.

Zhou Zhou saw that the little boy ignored his grandfather's obstruction and trotted all the way to his side.

He looked up at Zhou Zhou, his eyes flashing with an unprecedented light.

"Big brother, are you a hero?"

"My grandfather said that a hero is the existence that will stand up and save people when they are most dangerous, scared and in need."

"Big brother, you must be, right?"

He asked expectantly.

Ever since my sister disappeared.

He and his grandfather lived in darkness all the time.

At this time in their hearts.

The new lord who saved himself and his grandfather is the hero of the story that his grandfather used to tell!

Zhou Zhou shook his head and smiled.

"I'm not."

"I don't believe it!"

The little boy shook his head.

"I'm just an ordinary person who wants to try to live and protect the people who have entrusted their future to me."

Zhou Zhoudao.

The little boy blinked.

More than half an hour later.

Sun City.

After returning, Zhou Zhou first asked the kitchen to prepare food, so that these new leaders could fill their stomachs.

He could tell that these people had been hungry for a long time.

He then returned to the lord's wooden house and first extracted the loot from Zheng Huaiba's corpse.

None of the other loot was of much value.

The most important thing is the 6 Black Iron Rank Lord Talent Crystal Fragments.

Zhou Zhou took the 6 newly acquired Black Iron Rank Lord Talent Crystal Fragments, and took out the 8 Black Iron Level Lord Talent Crystal Fragments that he got from the Black-Tailed Mist Scorpion Leader last time.

He put them all together.

A misty black iron light emerged.

Appeared at the same time.

There is also a line of golden text.

[Found 10 Black Iron Rank Lord Talent Crystal Fragments, did they merge into a Black Iron Rank Lord Talent Origin Divine Crystal?] ]

"Yes!"

Zhou Zhou looked forward to it.

The next second.

A flash of black iron light flashed.

A thumb-sized hexagonal black iron-colored spar appeared in front of him.

It was surrounded by a band of black iron that resembled a star ring.

It looks quite strange.

Next to it are the 4 remaining Black Iron Rank Lord Talent Crystal Fragments.

Zhou Zhou picked up this hexagonal black iron-colored spar.

A text prompt appears.

[Treasure Name: Lord's Talent Origin Crystal]

[Treasure Item Grade: Black Iron Grade]

[Treasure Effect 1: After absorption, the lord will randomly awaken a black iron level lord talent!] ]

[Treasure Effect 2: Talent Promotion-Since this lord's talent Origin Divine Crystal is of black iron quality, it cannot help other lords' talents to be promoted to the level!] ]

[Treasure Introduction: A law treasure condensed by the supreme will, after use, you will get a random black iron level lord talent.] ]

[Do you absorb it?] ]

"Yes!"

Zhou Zhou said immediately.

The next second.

This lord's talent origin divine crystal immediately turned into countless black iron points of light, which quickly poured into his eyebrows.

He subconsciously closed his eyes.

A moment later.

Zhou Zhou opened his eyes.

I saw that the Black Iron Rank Lord's Talent Origin Divine Crystal in his hand had completely disappeared.

Zhou Zhou's face was happy.

Because he secretly felt as if he had mastered an incredible ability.

He immediately opened the lord's personal information.

I saw that his lord's talent column had been updated again!

[Lord Talents: 100% Explosion Rate (Legendary), Dwarf Alchemy Workshop (Bronze), Monster Ranch (Silver), Rebellion (Black Iron Level)]

"Rebellion?"

Zhou Zhou looked at this lord's talent.
