A few seconds later.

"It turns out that you are the strongest lord who has recently gained fame."

"No wonder ......"

"I've admired your name for a long time."

Atu's voice came.

There seemed to be a sense of relief in his voice.

"Your Excellency, please wait."

Atudao.

"Okay."

Zhou Zhou noticed the change in the other party's address to himself, and immediately nodded slightly.

It seems that Nesario, along with nearly 9,000 class professionals, is indeed a strong deterrent.

In the future, he could have avoided many unnecessary wars.

Just put on a posture and scare the other party and it's over.

Anyway, deterrence by force can win, so why do you have to fight hard?

A moment later.

The gates of the city of Zelar opened.

Ah Tu walked out with more than 1,000 tall bull demons and stopped at a place where there were still thirty or forty meters left from Zhou Zhou.

Ah Tu stared at Zhou Zhou, and then slowly knelt down on one knee:

"I, the city lord of Zelar City, the leader of the Bull Demon - Atu, am willing to give up my lordship and take the 1,256 Bull Demon Lords of Zelar City with me to join your command and become your lords!"

Ah Tu said in a deep voice.

[The leader of the Bull Demon - Atu led 1256 Bull Demons and asked to join your territory and become your people, do you agree?] ]

"Agreed."

Zhou Zhou said silently in his heart.

The next second.

[Hint: 1,257 Bull Demons have become your people!] ]

[Lord's Talent Hint: Guotai Min'an is taking effect, and the loyalty of the lord is increasing......]

[Lord's Talent Hint: 1257 Bull Demon Loyalty increased to 71!] ]

Zhou Zhou smiled slightly.

Why did he put forward such a simple condition and let the other party go?

The first is that the Crimson Mist is coming soon, and he doesn't plan to waste time here, he wants to conquer it as quickly as possible.

The second is because he has the talent of a diamond-level lord, and the country is safe and secure.

As long as the other party dares to join his territory, become his people.

Then it doesn't matter if the other party has any careful thoughts before joining.

As long as he becomes his own people.

Then he's in his own pocket!

Absolutely can't run!

"We'll be a family from now on."

Zhou Zhou walked over with a smile and stretched out his right hand to Atu.

Ah Tu was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly stretched out his hand to shake it with his lord.

"Please take care of me in the future!"

Atu said respectfully.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say."

Zhou Zhou nodded.

Then he looks at the items he can steal.

Then he was stunned.

[Current stealable items: 1 Gold Medium Skill Book "Great Force" (Steal Success Rate: 95%), 1 Gold Intermediate Growable Race Skill Book "Bloodthirsty Battle" (Steal Success Rate: 93%), 1 Gold Intermediate Growable Race Skill Book "Bull Demon Transformation" (Steal Success Rate: 94%), 1 Silver Blue Star Terran Ancestor Statue (Steal Success Rate: 91%), 2 Black Iron Tier Lord Talent Crystal Fragments (Steal Success Rate: 90%)]

"How could there be this?"

Zhou Zhou's gaze focused on the words of the ancestor statue of the Blue Star Human Race.

He reacted suddenly.

Zhao Changshou should have built the temple at this time!

Therefore, among the stolen items of Atu, there will be a statue of the ancestor of the Blue Star Terran.

He looked at the list of loot of the other party.

Really.

In the opponent's loot list, there is also the loot of the ancestor statue of the Blue Star Terran.

He no longer hesitated, and directly silently stole it.

The next second.

I saw that in his spatial ring, a three-meter-tall statue of the ancestor of the Blue Star Human Race and two fragments of the Black Iron Rank Lord's talent crystallization appeared out of thin air.

Zhou Zhou looked at the information of this Blue Star Terran ancestor statue.

[Treasure Name: Statue of the Ancestor of the Blue Star Terran - Sun Simiao]

[Treasure Item Level: Silver Level]

[Artifact Effect: Place it in the shrine of the Taimiao to activate the buff effect of the ancestor statue on the territory, people, or lord!] ]

[Treasure Introduction: Ancient Chinese pharmacists, Taoist priests, revered as the king of medicine by later generations, author of "Qianjin Yao Fang" and "Qianjin Yifang", and completed the world's first national pharmacopoeia "Tang Xin Materia Medica"! ] ]

[Hint: Collect two Ancestor Statues of the same level and the same character to merge into a higher-level Ancestor Statue!] The fused Ancestor Statue will have an even better buff effect on the territory, people, and lords! ]

"This ancestor?"

Zhou Zhou was taken aback.

The name of this medicine king, he is naturally like thunder.

The history textbooks I read when I was a child had this elder.

"I don't know what this ancestor's buff effect is?"

"When I go back, I'll go to the Taimiao Temple to try it."

He thought.

"Your Lord."

"Do you have any work that we need to do?"

Atu asked worriedly.

After listening to what his lord had just said, he was ready to make a strong contribution.

Zhou Zhou thought for a moment, then looked at the other party.

"There's a miniature iron mine near my territory."

"You can ask your people to go and mine the iron ore there."

He said.

"Do you want to eat and live?"

Ah Tu asked very unproductively.

Zhou Zhou was speechless.

"Don't worry."

"It's not just about food and shelter."

"If you are willing to go, you will also give the Heart of Fog as a salary."

Zhou Zhoudao.

These bull demons have a large physique and a lot of strength, which is the best choice for mining iron ore.

You don't have to fight with him.

He has no shortage of soldiers now.

The leader of the Bull Demon was overjoyed after hearing this.

He is very strong though.

However, his territorial governance ability is not strong, and the place where they stay is a resource-poor place like the Thorn Dunes.

So he and his Bull Demon Lords were poor.

On weekdays, he took the people to Yuquan Town to do some casual work, and he could barely maintain his life by doing some hard work.

Some people once valued their strength and wanted to hire them as their thugs.

But the people under his command refused without hesitation.

The reason why they came to such a desolate place to build a city and settle down.

It is to stay away from the war, escape the war, and live a stable life without worrying about losing your life.

How could they agree to such an employment?

This also leads to the fact that although their strength is very strong, they have a very hard time.

Now Ah Tu suddenly felt that it was not bad to be a lord under the lord's command.

At least there is a permanent job to do.

"That's right."

"Your lords can go to work in the miniature iron mines."

"But you're so strong, don't go there."

"Come and fight with me in the future."

Zhou Zhou said.

He can't look down on the bull demon with ordinary strength.

But with such a golden mid-level strength thug in front of him, he naturally won't let it go.

"Yes..."

"Your Lord."

Ah Tu's face froze, and then he reluctantly smiled and agreed.

Zhou Zhou directly ignored his expression.

He then gave Ah Tu a map of the surrounding area, telling him the location of Sun City.

Then he saw that it was getting late, so he stopped and led the army to hurry back in the direction of Shajin City.
