Chapter 437: amazing news

After reading the combat power list, Lin You had a basic understanding of the strength of other ninth-order lords.

Especially the ones at the front are estimated to be those old monsters who have lived for dozens or hundreds of years.

The accumulation of resources over such a long period of time is terrifying.

His biggest source of strength now is the godhead fragment, the royal family, and the mutation ability.

This is also the reason why he can stand above other lords.

But those ninth-order old monsters are different,

Over the long period of time, there will definitely be many powerful means that can improve strength.

Even if it can't compare to the mutation ability and the royal family, it won't be too different.

So for these old monsters, his biggest advantage is still the fragments of Godhead.

Because this is something that the old monsters have a high probability of not having, otherwise they would have already risen to the tenth order.

Think of this.

Lin You continued to scroll the leaderboard and continued to view the rankings above.

It was not until more than three hundred people that the first person from the Great Wilderness Principality finally appeared.

No. 347: Wei Heng [Great Wilderness Principality] 32200

This Wei Heng should be the ninth-rank strongest in the Great Wilderness Principality.

To be able to rank more than 300 on the entire continent is enough to see its strength.

Lin You silently wrote down the name, and then scrolled down the ranking.

Then he discovered that the name information of a small number of people was hidden, and only national information and combat power values ​​were displayed.

"Is there a hidden function?"

Lin You looked puzzled.

After searching carefully, I found a hidden option at the bottom of the list interface.

With a light touch of his fingers, a prompt suddenly sounded in his mind.

【Do you want to hide your name? 】

[Once hidden, others will not be able to view your name information, you can unhide it at any time. 】

Great feature!

I didn't expect this list to be so user-friendly, and you can freely hide your name.

In this way, you are not afraid of your specific strength being exposed.

"hide!"

Without hesitation, Lin You directly chose to hide.

next second.

His name disappeared from the list, leaving only the words "Great Wilderness Principality" and the combat power information on it.

It's really convenient.

After watching it for a while, he nodded in satisfaction, then turned off the interface and went to rest on the tree house.

The surrounding area gradually fell into silence.

......

Silent all night.

The next morning, Lin You, who was sleeping, was woken up by a busy noise.

After Huangsha City rose to the ninth level, the entire city became more lively inside and outside.

Many people who received the news came here on airships, and the residents of Huangsha City also began to speed up construction, planning new land under the leadership of Xue Changgui.

The first thing Lin You did when he woke up was to open the territory interface and take a look.

One day later, the liquidity has risen by more than one million.

Finally, there is no embarrassing situation where there is no money to pay the wages.

However, his territory has just been upgraded, and it is a critical time for outward development and expansion. This money is not enough.

And he still has 70 or 80 arms positions vacant, and there is no magic to recruit arms.

You have to figure out a way to make money.

But the problem is.

Now that the monster plane and the frontier battlefield cannot be reached, all the treasures in his hand that can be sold have already been sold.

It's embarrassing.

Get up and take a brief shower, then walk down the tree house and come to the tower of the troops.

Yesterday, because there were too many things to do, I forgot to study the arms.

I clicked on the building interface and took a look. The materials required for the upgrade have been collected. Without any hesitation, I directly chose to upgrade.

Swish!

Light flashed, and various materials quickly gathered.

The Tower of Arms, which originally had only eight floors, was raised to nine floors in a blink of an eye.

[Building Name: Tower of Arms]

[Building level: ninth order]

[Building introduction: You can research the advanced form of the existing arms and make them recruitable, which requires mana consumption, and the level of the arms cannot exceed the building level. 】

【Research speed: 30 days】

【Number of studies: 0/2】

[Required for upgrade: 50,000 wood, 50,000 stone, 25,000 iron ore, 25,000 copper ore, 1 million magic energy, ninth-order territory essence x1]

Huh?

The number of studies turned out to be two?

Looking at the interface changes after the upgrade, Lin You couldn't help but be overjoyed.

In this way, he can study two arms at a time, and the efficiency is much faster than before.

Immediately click on the research interface to find the research option of the plant dragon.

[Researching the ninth-order common arms needs to consume 2.5 million mana, do you want to confirm? 】

so expensive...

It was when he was at his poorest.

Lin You glanced at the 2.7 million mana energy left from the mutation in his pocket yesterday, gritted his teeth, and chose to confirm.

As for the remaining research position, we can only talk about it after we have more money.

"Lord Lord, I have something to see you."

At this moment, Xu Zhong's voice suddenly sounded outside the territory.

Lin You closed the interface, looked outside, and asked Qingteng to make way for them.

Not for a while.

An excited Xu Zhong appeared in a hurry with two followers.

"Meet the Lord."

The three saluted Lin You respectfully.

"Excuse the gift, what's the matter?" Lin You asked.

"Go back to the lord, there was news from the flying dock just now that the king's envoy came to discuss with us about opening a trade route."

"The king's envoy?"

Lin You was slightly surprised.

The king actually wanted to open a trade route here?

This is incredible.

If the negotiation is successful, then Huangsha City will be able to connect with the duke and the king, which is definitely a great news for him.

"Where is the envoy now?" Lin You asked quickly.

"Already in the reception hall."

"Okay, you go first, I'll be there soon."

After finishing speaking, Lin You turned around and went back into the tree house to put on the lord's costume made for him by the territorial people before.

Soon, he came to the top of the reception hall in the center of the city, and one rolled over and fell to the ground.

"The Lord is here!"

Wei Gang, who was guarding outside the hall, hurriedly greeted him with his subordinates.

Lin You raised his hand and gestured to them, then quickly walked into the reception hall and saw the king's envoy.

It was the ninth-order lord who exchanged the original fruit for him before, Shen Hui.

"Brother Lin You, we met again, didn't I bother you?"

Standing in the center of the hall, Shen Hui turned around and looked at Lin You with a smile. The whole person looked much kinder than before, and even changed his name to brother.

At this time, Lin You has long since changed from what he used to be, and has become a ninth-order lord just like him.

Naturally, it can no longer be neglected like before.

Feeling his change, Lin You smiled slightly: "Brother can come, it's too late for me to welcome you, sit down."

With that said, the two of them came to sit next to each other.

After the servant brought the tea, Shen Hui took the lead and said, "The last time we met was half a month ago, right? I didn't expect this dazzling, my brother will rise to the ninth order, I will give you tea instead of wine first. One cup, congratulations on my promotion."

"Brother Shen is polite, I should respect you."

Lin You smiled and raised the teacup in his hand.

He did not dare to despise this Shen Hui.

After all, he is a powerful subordinate by the king's side, and no other lord can match his status regardless of his status.

Moreover, Lin You also had the impression that this Shen Hui's combat power was not low, and he was considered a relatively strong group among the ninth-order old lords.

And just looking at the appearance of the age, at least fifty or sixty years old.

"Presumably brother Lin You already knows the purpose of my visit this time?"

After toasting the tea, Shen Hui put down the teacup and went straight to the subject.

"The king really intends to open a trade route between the capital and Huangsha City?" Lin You couldn't help asking.

"That's natural." Shen Hui nodded, "I just received an order from the king himself to come to discuss with you, brother. I don't know what my brother thinks?"

"Of course I'm fine here."

nonsense.

That is the capital.

The largest and most prosperous city in the entire Principality is also the center of the entire Principality.

As long as the trade route can be opened, then his Yellow Sand City can definitely take off quickly and catch up with the old lord's territory level in a short period of time.

"Since my brother has no opinion, then I won't say more nonsense. I will call someone to discuss the details at that time, and I will ask my brother to take more care."

"Of course." Lin You nodded lightly.

This kind of thing, let the people below do it, there is no need to waste time on it.

In addition to the opening of the trade route, Lin You has another very important thing.

So after pondering, I couldn't help but ask: "Brother Shen, you are an old man by the king's side. You should know a lot of news. There is one thing I want to inquire about."

"You want to ask about the monster plane and frontier battlefield, right?"

Shen Hui's eyes were so vicious, he could see Lin You's thoughts at a glance.

Lin You is not surprised by this. After all, this matter has become a lot of noise now, and many people are looking for news everywhere.

The reason why Shen Hui was asked was because the other party was the king's capable subordinate, so he might know something.

as predicted.

Facing his question, the smile on Shen Hui's face gradually subsided and became serious.

"This matter shouldn't be spread casually." His voice was very low, and his eyes were solemn. "But since it's my brother asking, I'll reveal a little bit. I hope you don't spread it casually."

"Okay!" Lin You nodded seriously.

Then I saw Shen Hui take a deep breath and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Actually, I just listened to what others said. Emperor Shengyao... seems to be seriously injured!"

"Are you sure!?" Lin You gasped, leaning back slightly.

Emperor Shengyao was seriously injured?

how can that be!

"It shouldn't be wrong and I also heard that the situation on the other great emperor's side is not very good, it seems that they have been injured to varying degrees."

"This......"

Lin You opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

My heart was even more shocked to the point where it couldn't be added.

With Shen Hui's qualifications, the news network is absolutely terrifying.

In other words, what he mentioned is likely to be true!

So what happened.

How could so many great emperors be injured?

"Have you found out why?" Lin You asked in a low voice.

"No." Shen Hui shook his head, "The above presumably didn't want to cause everyone's panic, so all the news was blocked. All we can do is wait."

"so......"

Lin You muttered to himself, and his tense mood gradually relaxed.

Since he can still suppress the news, it should not have developed to the point of being irreversible, so he can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

And as Shen Hui said.

All they can do now is wait.
