Zhou Zhou was completely stunned.

Not only does this Lord Talent Crystal Fragment awaken the Lord Talent, it could also upgrade the Lord Talent?

Zhou Zhou had another bold idea.

If he obtained 1 billion Black Iron-Tier Lord Talent Crystal Fragments, wouldn’t he be able to fuse a Mythical Lord Talent Origin Divine Crystal directly?

If he used it again, wouldn’t his Legendary-Tier Lord Talent evolve into a Mythical-Tier Lord Talent?

Wait…

No! If I had the Mythical Lord Talent Origin Divine Crystal, why would I level up the 100% drop rate? Wouldn’t it be better to directly awaken a brand new Mythical-Tier Lord talent?

Zhou Zhou suddenly realized the error of his ways and started fantasizing before coming back to his senses.

He looked at the eight Black Iron-Tier Lord Talent Crystal fragments in his hand and sighed.

One billion of them!

So far away!

He might not even be able to afford it even after the battle of the OverLords.

It was better not to think so far ahead.

“There are billions of Cerulean Planet Lords and many of them haven’t awakened their Lord Talents. Could it be because they didn’t form a complete Lord Talent Crystal in their bodies?”

Zhou Zhou suddenly thought of this problem.

The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

He then called five Sword Shield Soldiers and walked into the Lord’s wooden house. He checked it and found that there was nothing good to take away with them.

He then turned his attention to the Territory Stone Tablet and realized that it was a Black Iron-Tier Advance Grade Territory Stone Tablet!

“Smash it.” Zhou Zhou ordered.

The five Sword Shield Soldiers went forward to swing their swords.

They took half an hour to break the stone tablet with an endurance of 10,000 points, revealing the Territory Token inside.

Zhou Zhou stepped forward and placed his hand on the Territory Token.

[Receive the Territory Order?]

“Yes!” Zhou Zhou said.

The Black Iron-Tier Advance Grade Territory Token immediately fell into his hands the next second.

Zhou Zhou looked at the Territory Token with a smile on his face.

He had two Territory Tokens in his possession. He just had to obtain another piece and his territory could be upgraded again!

“We’ve to continue fighting.” Zhou Zhou thought.

“My Lord. I have something to report!”

At this moment, Bai Yi’s voice came from outside.

“Come in.” He said casually.

Bai Yi walked in. “I’ve something to report, my Lord!”

“The soldiers couldn’t even find a unit of basic resources after searching for so long. It’s like there are no resources here.” Her expression was a little ugly.

Zhou Zhou was stunned.

Surely not?

It was the territory of a Green Bronze-Tier Advance Grade Scarlet Lord after all. It should have developed for a period of time since it could upgrade its territory to Black Iron-Tier Advance Grade. How could it not have any basic resources?

“Did you search the underground?” Zhou Zhou suddenly said.

Bai Yi immediately reacted and joy appeared on her face.

“That’s right! There is indeed a high chance that they will place their development resources under the desert with their habits…”

“I am a fool. I’ll send people to search for them again right away. We’ll definitely find all the loot here even if we have to dig three feet into the ground!”

“There’s no need to go through so much trouble. Catch a Black-Tailed Fog Scorpion alive and let me question it.” Zhou Zhou possessed the racial skill, Mental Perception, where he could vaguely sense the thoughts of living creatures. It would be all too easy to get information from the enemy when coupled with the Mental Manipulation skill.

“Roger!” Bai Yi left and a moment later, an elite Black-tailed Fog Scorpion with its legs and tail severed was sent over. After Zhou Zhou used Mental Manipulation and Mental Perception on it, he found where the territory’s treasure trove was.

Bai Yi immediately led soldiers who knew the Sand Stealth technique to the location and successfully retrieved all the loot from underground.

They obtained 2,000 units of wood, 1,500 units of stone, 800 units of fine sand, 500 units of metal, 156 Black Iron-Tier Mist Cores, and 25 Green Bronze-Tier Mist Cores in total!

They even found a Green Bronze-Tier Intermediate Grade medical hall blueprint, even though it was of little use to Zhou Zhou.

With Zhao Changshou, a White Platinum-Tier Intermediate Grade architect, around, he no longer cared about ordinary blueprints below White Platinum-Tier Intermediate Grade.

However, he could give this blueprint to Qian Du as a reward when he was promoted to a Green Bronze-Tier Intermediate Grade Architect.

Zhou Zhou felt that there was nothing to occupy here. He placed all the loot on the small wooden cart and left with the soldiers and convoy as usual.

Two hours later, in the Lord’s wooden house.

Zhou Zhou was sorting out the gains and losses of this battle.

They had killed a total of 465 Black-tailed Fog Scorpions in this battle!

Among them was a Green Bronze-Tier Advance Grade Black-Tailed Fog Scorpion Leader (Scarlet Lord), two Elite Green Bronze-Tier Intermediate Grade Black-tailed Fog Scorpions, five Elite Green Bronze-Tier Elementary Grade Black-tailed Fog Scorpions, 29 Elite Black Iron-Tier Advance Grade Black-Tailed Fog Scorpion, 118 Black Iron-Tier Intermediate Grade Black-Tailed Fog Scorpions, and 310 Black Iron-Tier Elementary Grade Black-Tailed Fog Scorpions!

On Zhou Zhou’s side, it was a miracle that only three soldiers died in battle! 12 were seriously injured and 56 were slightly injured!

Their battle damage ratio was terrifyingly high!

It was because of four key reasons.

First, they had more troops on their side, double the number of Black-tailed Fog Scorpions!

Second, the success rate of the Black-tailed Fog Scorpions’ sneak attacks were greatly reduced because of the Blood Eye!

Third, Zhou Zhou and Zhang Qianjing were constantly healing and neutralizing poisons on the battlefield, reducing the casualties!

Last but not least, Nezario had eliminated the Black-tailed Fog Lizard leader and its Green Bronze-Tier Black-tailed Fog Scorpions with higher combat power.

Zhou Zhou had also obtained a large number of rewards from this battle that surprised him.

This included 83 Green Bronze-Tier Mist Cores, 1,324 Black Iron-Tier Mist Cores, 13,820 units of flesh (Black Iron-Tier Elementary, Intermediate and Advance Grade), 150 units of Green Bronze-Tier Elementary Grade! 100 units of Green Bronze-Tier Intermediate Grade! 500 units of Green Bronze-Tier Advance Grade, 465 portions of the Black-tailed Fog Scorpion’s poison sac (Black Iron-Tier and Green Bronze-Tier), 389 bottles of antidotes (Black Iron-Tier Elementary, Intermediate and Advance Grade), eight bottles of Blood Cleansing Pills! (Green Bronze-Tier Elementary, Intermediate and Advance Grade), 540 Poison Crossbowmen Class Change Certificates, 175 Poison Crossbowmen Recruitment Books, 29 Black Iron-Tier Advance Grade Black Scorpion Crossbows, five Black Iron-Tier Elementary Grade Black Scorpion Crossbows, two Black Iron-Tier Intermediate Grade Black Scorpion Crossbows and seven sets of Blood Cleansing Pill potion formulas (five sets of Green Bronze-Tier Elementary Grade and two sets of Green Bronze-Tier Intermediate Grade)!

Zhou Zhou stored all the loot into the Emperor of Sand’s spatial ring. Then, he walked out of the Lord’s wooden house and came to the Gate of Summoning, once again throwing all 175 Poison Crossbow Soldier Recruitment Books in.

The next second, Poisonous Crossbowmen filed out of the Gate of Summoning one after the other. After bowing respectfully to Zhou Zhou, they lined up behind him until no one else emerged from the Gate.

A total of 175 poisonous crossbowmen appeared!

“The number of soldiers under my command has officially broken through to 1,000! 1,041, to be precise!” A smile appeared on Zhou Zhou’s face.
