Chapter 1062 - 585: The Strategic Importance of Iron Pillar II and the Token of the Mizang Desert

Thinking about it, Zong Shen solemnly stored the seed away.

Thus far, all the items obtained from the 1000 points tier ten draws have been examined!

Up until now, only the 500 points tier ten draws were left to be examined.

In this tier’s ten draws, aside from that piece of sweet potato vine.

There were only four items worth his attention.

The other gray and white items need not be mentioned; the Wolf Cavalry Recruitment Scrolls were also just an old tale.

Once these four items are checked, this round of exchanges would finally wrap up.

The function of the first item is also quite interesting, which is why Zong Shen paid special attention to it.

It’s about the size of a chicken egg.

Its surface is a mix of red and gray, as smooth as a stone.

[Seed of the Wild (Blue)]

[Quality: Excellent Level]

[Effect: Wildness Activation (Can only be consumed by beasts or magical beasts whose tier does not exceed Commander-level, with a 50% chance to advance to Commander-level, failure will result in Wildness Enhancement, increasing the Basic Attributes by 15%)]

(Pigsy, Pigsy, not bad at heart, Pigsy, Pigsy, adorably silly)

That’s right, this [Seed of the Wild] is not a plant seed but a beast enhancement tool.

As long as the tier does not exceed Commander-level, it can be used.

There are quite a few beasts or magical beasts in the territory that meet the requirements now.

Just among the Griffins and Scorpion-tailed Tigers, there are many who reach Captain Level standards.

However, as implied by the Guide Module.

Zong Shen truly intends to use this [Seed of the Wild (Blue)] on Pigsy.

Because of the Odu Village incident and increasingly frequent interactions with Boss Bang.

Plus, with Eagle and Flying Tiger, these two aerial beasts, Pigsy is gradually losing its place.

This [Seed of the Wild] is Pigsy’s chance to rejoin the tier one beast riding lineup.

Besides, Pigsy’s tough skin and flesh are widely acknowledged.

Once advanced to Commander-level, these traits can be greatly enhanced.

After the advancement, Pigsy’s size will become more massive.

By then, carrying some warriors and initiating "Pig Tank Coordination" with the [Earth Shaker Tank], transforming into a solid "Siege Hammer" at the front line to disrupt the enemy’s defense and formations.

Of course, the above reasons are considered from a practical perspective.

The deeper reason also includes Zong Shen’s personal emotions.

As a riding beast accompanying him in battles, the silly Pigsy is both his pet and a reliable teammate.

Compared to enhancing a Commander-level Griffin or Scorpion-tailed Tiger.

Zong Shen prefers to leave this opportunity to Pigsy.

Even though there’s only a 50% chance to advance, it’s worth the gamble.

Even if the advancement fails, it can still boost Basic Attributes by 15%, a tiny personal bias of his.

"This Seed of the Wild, reserved for Pigsy!"

Zong Shen silently noted in his heart, then inverted his hand and stored the Seed of the Wild.

The second item is an advanced book!

The quality also ranks Excellent Level, capable of advancing a Tier Two Soldier to Tier Three.

Perfect for giving Little Tiezhu, "stationed" at Dinan Village, some additional surprises.

[Nord Advancement Book (Blue)]

[Quality: Excellent Level]

[Can be used on any Tier Two Soldier series of Nord Kingdom]

[Upgrade them to Tier Three Soldiers]

(Repeat after me, Ti~ Ti~ Ti~ Ti~ Ti~, Zhu)

Erzhu can finally advance.

Honestly, the Scout Squad’s operations in Dinan Village haven’t been very smooth.

But, with the funds and direction provided by Zong Shen, they have accomplished some of their goals.

They have acquired some farms, orchards, houses, etc., within and outside the village.

Besides, whenever the territory has extra procurement needs, Tiezhu manages these purchases in Dinan Village, serving as territory’s prepared fallback there.

According to Tiezhu’s reports, recently many Lords have attempted contacts with landlords, caravan leaders, and even the village head in Dinan Village.

Most Lords, from observation during this time, understand the importance of Indigenous People villages for development.

Indigenous People are the main source for supplementing the territory’s base population.

However, most Lords lack the strength to annex a village through violent means.

Even joining forces as a legion doesn’t work.

A dozen Lords might team up to capture a village.

But afterward, they could face retaliation from the governing Bang City.

The earlier Odu Village was a living example.

The Bang City Army from Boss Bang came for the first round.

If the Bang City Army fails, nearby Local Knight Orders and Giant Cities might send Expeditionary Armies.

This is a case of attacking the small, attracting the big.

Thus, most Lords still need to lay low, while connecting more with the Indigenous People inside the village.

First, to see if it might trigger any quests.

Second, good relations can also aid future annexations.

As for Zong Shen, his plans have always been advanced and bold.

His target is even aiming at Bang City.

Though it won’t necessarily be Boss Bang.

Compared to Boss Bang.

The nearby unrest and decline of Saiaka City make it his preferred target.

Based on Zong’s advanced strength and vision, along with the information advantage from the Guide Module.

He is quite confident in annexing a Bang City within several months.

While Boss Bang, he has other plans and naturally won’t miss out.

Though the methods will be relatively gentle.

After all, Baron Bezos has treated him well.

Besides hesitating during loot sharing from the Lion Knight Order ruins.
