There were a total of 10 Professionals among these 66 people!
Among them were two Green Bronze-Tier Advance Grade Cavalrymen, three Green Bronze-Tier Intermediate Grade Blacksmiths, one Green Bronze-Tier Elementary Grade Tailor, one Black Iron-Tier Advance Grade Carpenter, and three Black Iron-Tier Intermediate Grade Doctors!
Zhou Zhou nodded slightly.
He even laughed out loud when he saw two Green Bronze-Tier Advance Grade Cavalrymen.
He had 8,132 Military Professionals under him but there was only one Cavalryman and one Spearman.
Every time he went out to fight, there would be a sea of Sword Shield Soldiers, Poison Crossbow Soldiers, and Elemental Archers but the lone Cavalryman and Spearman formed a team.
It looked rather awkward.
There were finally three Cavalrymen.
As for the Spearmen…
Emmm…
Let nature take its course.
After that, Zhou Zhou got the two Cavalrymen to report to Bai Yi.
The remaining people asked them to look for Zheng Yuanqi and let him arrange the place.
Then, Zhou Zhou brought Nezario, Bai Yi, and the other 98 people to enter the Time Ruins.
When he entered the Time Ruins, a line of text suddenly appeared in front of him.
[The River of Time has undergone a special change!]
[The content of the Time Mission has changed!]
Then, a mission interface that looked the same as before but had actually changed appeared in front of Zhou Zhou.
Time Mission One: Eliminating the enemy did not change much.
However, Time Mission Two: Protection of the Ally had changed from "Protect the last 13 Elven Elemental Archers in Indre Town!" to "Protect the last 12 Elven Elemental Archers in Indre Town."
Zhou Zhou frowned slightly when he saw this change.
Soon.
Zhou Zhou suddenly realized something when they found the 12 surviving Elemental Archers.
The 13th Elemental Archer that wasn't around was Nadia!
"What happened?"
Zhou Zhou was surprised.
He had a vague guess in his heart.
However, he was not too sure.
In the end, he could only let it go.
After all, it was related to the concept of the River of Time.
No matter what changes happened to the Time Ruins was not something he could interfere with now.
He could only accept this change.
Fortunately, this was not a big loss for him.
The number of Elven Elemental Archers he could obtain every day would reduce from 13 to 12 at worst.
Half an hour later.
After completing two Time Missions, they walked out of the Time Ruins with all their loot.
Then, Zhou Zhou brought 384 Elemental Archers recruitment books to the Gate of Summoning and summoned 384 Black Iron-Tier Elementary Grade Elemental Archers recruits.
This raised the total number of soldiers under his command to 8,526!
Putting aside the 1,000 people in Desolate City!
He would have 7,526 people to face the novice Lord test!
As for the 5,000 monsters nurtured in the Monster Ranches today, he would not lead the troops to clean them up.
These monsters were left to Mu Gu to command and for him to protect himself.
A moment later.
Outside Blazing Sun City.
In the distance.
200 humans dragged their families and luggage over from afar.
They soon arrived outside Blazing Sun City's novice lord protection barrier. They said that they wanted to see the Lord of The Blazing Sun and hoped to join Blazing Sun City and become its official Subjects.
The soldiers at the city gate naturally could not make such a decision.
After calming them down, they immediately ran over to report this matter to Zhou Zhou.
"200 people?"
Zhou Zhou was stunned.
Then, he quickly reacted.
Zhang Boen's mission reward did include the submission of 200 Fish Spring Town Subjects.
It should be this group of people.
At the thought of this, Zhou Zhou immediately called Zheng Yuanqi and went outside the Novice Lord's protective barrier with the soldiers.
When the 200 Subjects saw Zhou Zhou, they immediately became excited.
"We have been yearning for you because of your reputation for a long time. Please allow us to become your Subjects!"
"My husband was killed by the Purple Scale Murderfish. Thank you, Lord of the Blazing Sun, for eliminating these fog monsters!"
"Sir, let us join your territory!"
…
Everyone looked at Zhou Zhou expectantly.
[200 Fish Spring Town Subjects request to join your territory and become your Subjects. Do you agree?]
Zhou Zhou naturally agreed.
"Thank you for thinking so highly of me!"
"I naturally welcome everyone to join Blazing Sun City!"
"From now on…"
"We're family."
Zhou Zhou roared.
Everyone immediately cheered.
Then, Zhou Zhou asked Zheng Yuanqi to take over these people and arrange their accommodation and work.
When he saw these 200 people, he felt a little lucky.
Fortunately, these people came at this time.
If they happened to come during the novice Lord test, Zhou Zhou could not guarantee that nothing would happen to them.
In the time that followed…
Zhou Zhou did not do anything else but let the soldiers and Nezario conserve their energy and wait for the next novice Lord test.
Nezario also knew that a great battle was waiting for it.
It had always been lazy.
Nonetheless, a faint Dragon Might came from its body even though it was still lying on the ground.
The dragon eyes opened and closed.
One could see the blazing dark red flames in its eyes and the terrifying will for Destruction!
Surging fire elemental energy surrounded it.
It seemed to be ready to pour out at any time to eliminate all enemies who dare to stand in its way.
Even the Subjects and soldiers who usually dared to approach Nezario did not dare to approach it at this moment.
More than an hour later.
Zhou Zhou opened the World Channel.
He realized that the novice Lord test would begin in three minutes.
Three minutes later.
Zhou Zhou stared at the final countdown.
Countless Lords of the myriad races were also staring at the final countdown in the entire High Continent!
[Current countdown: 0 hours: 0 minutes:12 seconds!]
[Current countdown: 0 hours: 0 minutes:11 seconds!]
…
[Current countdown: 0 hours: 0 minutes: 8 seconds!]
…
[Current countdown: 0 hours: 0 minutes: 3 seconds!]
[Current countdown: 0 hours: 0 minutes: 2 seconds!]
[Current countdown: 0 hours: 0 minutes: 1 second!]
…
Right at this moment!
Rumble…
Suddenly, the sky in all regions of the High Continent changed drastically.
Vast Scarlet Fog covered the sky.
Scarlet lightning bolts interweaved in the Scarlet Fog in the sky like dense blood snakes.
At this moment, the air became heavy.
The world became extremely oppressive.
Elven Empire, Alanos.
The Original Elven Empress Elizariel looked at the changes in the weather.
Her expression was complicated.
There was a hint of anticipation in the depths of her eyes.
"Lords…"
"Will there really be a Lord of All Races among you?"
She muttered to herself.
…
Aurora Kingdom Royal Palace.
Li Yuangan frowned as he looked at the sudden change in the weather. Then, he instructed the minister beside him.
"Get the Lords of the various regions to appease the Aurora Subjects in their region."
"At a time like this…"
"Don't let anything go wrong."
"Also, inform the Lords at the border to be careful of the Tahan Kingdom."
"To prevent them from taking advantage of this opportunity to invade!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The minister said respectfully.
Then, he immediately passed down the order.
…
In the starry sky.
The Divine Kingdoms in the countless stars shone brightly.
The God Spirits who lived in the Divine Kingdom were also watching this novice Lord test at this moment.
…
At the same time…
The countdown in the eyes of all the Lords reached the end.
[Current countdown: 0 hours: 0 minutes: 0 second!]
Rumble…
Rows of blood-colored text notifications appeared in front of the Lords accompanied by the earth-shattering scarlet thunder.
[The novice Lord development period is over!]
[The novice lord test has officially begun!]
