0089 Lord of Ten Thousand Souls
The next day, Li Lilai recovered the troops on time.
As a result, [Demon Knife] Zeng Hua is no longer in the stronghold.
In private chat, it turned out that the mercenary force was too fierce yesterday, not only beating away the sworn enemy [Mirror Man] Jiang Feng, but also cleaning up the other two lords around him.
Currently in a better position.
Li Li got the coordinates and went there, and found that the whole army had been upgraded by about 5 levels.
The damage is not too big, because of the suppression of the Church of Light in the early stage, the Blue Star people of Fuguang Province have not developed too well.
Therefore, there is no advantage at all in terms of quality and level.
Li Li gave dozens of [rotten blood cells], and all the injuries were healed.
At this time, [Demon Knife] Zeng Hua sent a heavy money bag and wanted to borrow it for another day.
Li Li weighed his weight, shook his head and said, "Friend, yesterday our class was at a preferential price, and now the rent of an army is 100 gold coins per day, and your gold coins are only enough to rent for one day." ”
"This..."
Zeng Hua looked embarrassed.
The three lords who were defeated yesterday have collected a lot of money.
However, the total amount is only about 230 gold coins.
If you take out other expenses and pay for today's employment expenses, it is equivalent to saying that you have not earned a cent.
Li Li saw the other party's concerns, and persuaded him: "Brother, your pattern is about to be opened, now the funds are a little tighter, but you have obtained the territory, do you remember what the situation was yesterday, it was almost pushed by Jiang Feng, and... This is the troops of the Invincible City. ”
"Okay! One more day. ”
Zeng Hua gritted his teeth and gave out a bag of gold coins again.
Next, in [Wild Slashing King] Magina, a similar plot also appeared.
It's just that the rotating commander of the day has changed from Shen Qiaoyin to the zombie king.
After all, the other party has spent a lot of money, and it will definitely squeeze out the maximum value of the mercenary force in one day.
If a commander commands a battle 24 hours a day, it will be very difficult to hold on.
"I said Li Li, why did you post recruitment information on the channel?"
On the way back to the station, Shen Qiaoyin asked puzzled.
"I don't plan to run it for a long time, save enough money to solve the financial crisis, and I plan to go back next, and if I publicly introduce mercenaries, it will dispel the mystery, which is not conducive to building deterrence."
Li Li responded.
"It's complicated."
Shen Qiaoyin didn't understand it very well.
"Actually, it's very simple, in this chaotic war situation in Fuguang Province, there will definitely be several final victors in the future, and all the controllable territories will be divided, and then there will be a longer period of peace, which will be used to consolidate and absorb the land that they have worked so hard to capture, and when the strength is raised to a certain level, either several winners will compete with each other to decide one person to control Fuguang, or they can only have ideas about the three city-states controlled by the invincible city."
"So the deterrence you mentioned is this...."
Shen Qiaoyin was stunned.
The purpose of renting troops is to make money, but also to show the strength of the invincible city and reduce the possibility of future disputes.
This kind of thing is very important to style, if you swipe the screen in the channel like buying equipment, who will really fear you from the bottom of their hearts.
However, if the strength of the troops of the invincible city is told, it will be told by word of mouth.
Everyone adds a little fuel and vinegar, and the image established by the invincible city may be truly invincible.
Five days later, the defeated [Mirror Man] Jiang Feng began to channel his own tragic experience of fighting with the troops of the Invincible City.
This was not instructed by Li Li, but completely spontaneous.
After all, he, who originally had a great advantage, had a high probability of defeating Zeng Hua and occupying the opponent's territory.
But the result was that the whole army was wiped out, the [Lord's Mansion] was demolished, and he could only escape the pitiful situation of the mountains and forests.
So he decided to be bold and exposed, and never to fight the lord who had the troops of the invincible city.
There are many lords in Fuguang Province, and they have only seen Li Li at the lords' conference.
Three large city-states are enough to prove that the strength is terrifying.
But in terms of garrison strength, they didn't find it very strong.
In the long run, it is inevitable that there will be some thoughts about it.
After all, this kind of large-scale city-state is a kind of dimensionality reduction attack for a humble stronghold.
This time, Invincible City walked from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, quietly showing its strength on a small scale.
It made the nerves of the lords tense up at once.
But after three days, the style of painting was a little wrong.
Wang Qiang looked at the chat channel, and then at the [Corrupt Snow Gorilla] who was fighting on the front line.
Puzzled, he said, "Your gorilla is 20 meters tall?" The fist is the size of a truck head? ”
But Wang Qiang didn't care, after all, what is spreading more and more mysterious, it is a common disease of human beings.
After thirteen days, Li Li finally earned 5,000 gold coins.
is Zeng Hua and Ma Qi, two old customers, who are already in debt.
However, the territory can be regarded as the two overlords with the most in the eastern part of Fuguang Province.
Back at Dort, the underground success has been on the right track, Ma Tengfei is too busy to meet, the two have been communicating in private chat, and the progress has not been hindered.
After Li Li handed over the gold coins to Applejack and asked him to help them enter the warehouse, Applejack informed him that the city of Invincible City had been haunted recently, and people were panicking.
Li Li slapped his head violently, and then remembered that although he had sent a small number of troops to escort the [Ten Thousand Soul Lord], he had only chosen the land and dug a vertical tunnel when he was in the dungeon.
So he hurriedly asked the Skeleton King to find the [Ten Thousand Souls Lord].
Not long after, the [Ten Thousand Soul Lord] who was wearing a black robe and the whole person was suspended in the air floated into the lord's hall.
"Lord Li Li, you finally remember me, I have been hiding under the eaves during this time, and I am very unhappy."
The [Lord of Ten Thousand Souls] said as he untied his hood, and a pure white face that seemed to be made of energy was revealed.
"I'm really sorry, I went to Fuguang Province some time ago to make a wave of extra money, and the construction of the dungeon was delayed, so you can start now."
Li Li said and picked up the mining pickaxe.
"This human looks pretty good, and he even apologizes, do you want to forgive him, or forgive, after all, I'm out of the demon world now..."
"Lord of Ten Thousand Souls, you have confided in your heart again."
Skeletron said helplessly.
"Okay, take me to see it."
The Lord of Ten Thousand Souls woke up suddenly.
"What about your subjects? Do you want to go together, I see that the sun has been shining recently, and I'm afraid they won't be able to adapt. ”
Li Li asked.
"Don't worry about that."
As he spoke, the Lord of Ten Thousand Souls magically pulled out a transparent glass jar called the [Soul Gathering Jar].
It is densely packed with all kinds of ghostly grimaces, some sticking out their tongues, some blinking their eyes, giving people the feeling of being naughty.
Li Li didn't expect that the Ghost Clan would have this total benefit, and he could compress all his subjects into the [Soul Gathering Jar].
If it is paired with a high-speed carrier, then the action power will be directly full.
In the sewers of the Invincible City, Li Li opened a metal gate,
Follow the vertical passage and step on the pixel ladder to keep going down.
When I reached a depth of 300 blocks underground, an open field appeared in front of me.
This is an area that Li Li stumbled upon when he buried his [Lord's Mansion].
Because it was too open and there was an underground river passing through it, it was not safe and hidden, so it was abandoned.
However, according to the requirements of the [Ten Thousand Souls Lord], it is a good choice to set up a new [Ten Thousand Souls City] here.
"That's great, I don't believe that the people of the Demon Inspectorate can find this!"
The [Ten Thousand Soul Lord] eyes glowed with golden light, and he was obviously very satisfied with this place.
"Your ghost subjects can use tools."
"Yes."
The [Ten Thousand Souls Lord] said, and threw the [Soul Gathering Jar] to the ground.
Countless ghosts spilled out, and soon filled all corners.
"Give you 10 pickaxes, if you feel that there is redundant, you can knock them out as you like, as for the city... You don't need a city wall here, I'll just build a facility directly, this passage will help widen it when I go back, and change it into a material delivery pipeline, and you can leave one on the surface of the psychic imp, so that if you have any needs, just use the psychic imp to communicate with the above, and someone will send it down. ”
Li Li made plans and deployments.
"Uh... Wait a minute, you really don't ask for anything in return for helping me so much? ”
[Ten Thousand Souls Lord] said with some curiosity.
"How so... If the current crisis about the fall can be resolved, I hope you can help me build a rebirth system similar to the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls underground. ”
Li Li frankly stated his purpose.
"If you don't say this, I'll get it too."
[Lord of Ten Thousand Souls] said nonchalantly.
"Thank you so much."
"I don't need to thank you, otherwise what do you think my Ten Thousand Souls City depends on."
[Lord of Ten Thousand Souls] tells the truth.
The Zombie King needs corpses, and Skeletron needs bones.
What the [Ten Thousand Souls Lord] needs is naturally an incomparably magical soul.
"To be honest, I still don't understand how the ghost system works, can you tell us about it?"
Li Li asked.
"Haha, this human has helped me so much, and now it's finally my turn to reciprocate, I have to behave well... Oh, speaking my heart again, ahem... In fact, rebirth is only one branch of my research results, and my true ideal is to build the ghost race into the strongest race in the sub-ancient continent, and no one can bully us anymore! ”
"Well, ideal."
Li Li agreed.
"If you want to understand the ghost system, you must first know what death is, what is the soul state, when you were in Tianxing Province, did you have such doubts, why do people in Dott Province die when they die, and after people in Tianxing Province die, there will be souls appearing?"
"That's right!"
Li Li felt that the other party pointed out the key to the problem.
"This is the soul activation force field at work, this thing is called the Revenant Soul Formation in the underworld, the structure of the two is fundamentally different, but the purpose is the same, that is, to let people who have died physically enter the soul state with consciousness as the carrier and continue to live."
"I see."
Li Li's understanding of the ghost system has improved a lot.
"And the root of the ghost system is to transform the soul state of the creature into the ghost race, and constantly strengthen it, so reloading the soul state into the body is not the essence of the ghost system, of course, from the biological level, it is very attractive."
"Uh... Are these ghosts all voluntarily turned into ghosts? ”
Li Li thought about it for a while, but still asked this question.
"Yes, it's completely voluntary, it's hard to believe, right?"
The Lord of Ten Thousand Souls smiled.
"It's a bit of a surprise."
"Actually, it's very easy to understand, people who become souls by chance, will accept the guidance given by Ten Thousand Souls City, go to the Demon Realm, if the underworld in the area is more powerful in the local area, then it will be robbed if it can't reach the Demon Realm at all, and if you reach Ten Thousand Souls City smoothly, there will be a large part of you who will have nostalgia for life, the duration of the soul state is related to the strength of willpower, but generally not more than half a month, we will make one last inquiry before the fall, if you still insist on the yearning for life, you will be thrown into the equipment to decompose, to be the basic material of the ghost system, if you give up, you will wash away your memories and become a ghost clan. ”
Li Li had a feeling.
In the subancient continent, no matter which race, there must be a complete and sound system in order to continue to continue.
"Is it necessary to wash away the memory?"
"It wasn't a long time ago, but because of the presence of people who kept fleeing from Ten Thousand Souls, the process was changed."
"Is there any downside to being reborn on a massively remodeled human body?"
"In my opinion, no, but from a human point of view, this body is very mediocre and has a short lifespan, so it's better to use the original owner's own body."
"What is the facility that can release the soul activation force field called?"
"It's called the Soul Activation Force Field Generator, you don't have to worry about the laying in Dot's territory, I'll let the subjects do it quietly at night, that's it.... Once the generator is active, the Demon Inspectorate will sense it and will be able to determine that I am in Dort. ”
The Lord of Ten Thousand Souls spoke out about his worries.
Li Li also understands that the current incident is because of the fall incident.
The degree of attention is much higher than that of Skeletron and Zombie King.
Moreover, when these two demon realm leaders rebelled, they did not relocate all the subjects of the entire city-state.
[Flatulence Cemetery] and [White Bone City] are to put it bluntly, and they are still under the control of the Demon God.
The [Lord of Ten Thousand Souls] is dragging his family and leading the mouth, directly separated from the demon world, and the strength of the revenge is naturally not at the same level.
"This is the territory of Invincible City, please rest assured."
Li Li didn't go into too much detail, but simply replied, and the [Ten Thousand Souls Lord] suddenly had an unprecedented sense of security.
"I believe you, after all, you have defeated several members of the inspection team and robbed the Demon God's Black Realm Airship, and these deeds have long spread in the Demon Realm... You're the first to dare to rebel against the Demon God, and you're a human lord. ”
[Lord of Ten Thousand Souls] said very seriously.
"Thank you for your trust, I'm going to get busy, if you have any new ideas for the city-state's planning, you can always bring them up."
Li Li switched out the [Stone Cube] and got busy.
Two days later, a majestic underground city-state was built.
Li Li admired his work for a moment and returned to the ground.
The materials needed to build the [Soul Activation Field Generator] are not valuable, but they are more alternative.
[Ten Thousand Souls Lord] can collect a portion of it by itself in the underground space.
But for the sake of safety, the rest of the part can only be handed over to Li Li.
So he mobilized the [subordinate lords] of the other two provinces to rely on the trading market in the city to collect.
