Zhou Zhou looked at them.
Soon, a line of golden words slowly appeared.
[10 Green Bronze-Tier Lord Talent Crystal Fragments discovered. Do you want to fuse them into a Green Bronze-Tier Lord Talent Origin Divine Crystal?]
"Yes!"
Zhou Zhou said.
The next second.
A Bronze light flashed.
A hexagonal bronze crystal the size of a thumb appeared in front of him.
It was surrounded by a bronze belt of light that looked like a ring of stars.
It was the Green Bronze-Tier Lord Talent Origin Divine Crystal!
A text notification appeared.
[Treasure Name: Lord Talent Origin Divine Crystal]
[Treasure Grade: Green Bronze-Tier]
[Treasure Effect One: The Lord will randomly awaken a Green Bronze-Tier Lord Talent after absorbing it!]
[Treasure Effect Two: Lords with Black Iron-Tier Lord Talents can use it to upgrade their Black Iron-Tier Lord Talents to Green Bronze-Tier Lord Talents!]
[Treasure Description: A Law Treasure condensed by the Supreme Will. It can be used to awaken talent or upgrade talents.]
[Absorb/Upgrade?]
"Upgrade!" Zhou Zhou said in a low voice.
Awakening a new Green Bronze-Tier Lord Talent might be very tempting, but that was too random.
Zhou Zhou would regret like crazy if he awakened a Lord Talent similar to Return To The City.
[Please choose one to advance which one of your two Black Iron-Tier Lord Talents, Incite Defection and Return To The City to upgrade.]
"I choose to upgrade the Incite Defection!" Zhou Zhou said.
[Lord Talent has been chosen!]
[Upgrading in progress…]
The next second.
He suddenly felt a familiar warmth between his eyebrows.
This feeling.
He had felt it when he advanced to the Mythical-Tier King of Loots.
He felt it again now.
A moment later.
The warmth faded.
A new text notification appeared.
[Lord Talent upgrade successful!]
[Congratulations, your Black Iron-Tier Lord Talent, Incite Defection, has been upgraded to Green Bronze-Tier Lord Talent, Incite Defection!]
[The following effect have been upgraded to Green Bronze-Tier:]
[Lord Talent: Incite Defection (Green Bronze-Tier)]
[Incite Defection: A Lord's exclusive talent. You can activate the Incite Defection Talent to turn 5% of the enemy Lord's forces into your loyal subordinates when you fight the enemy Lord head-on.]
[Lord Talent Hint One: The lowest limit of the number of enemies defecting is one unit of enemy, and the highest is 30,000 units of enemy. The loyalty of the enemy after defection is at least 80 points.]
[Lord Talent Notification 2: Currently, the upper limit of the Lord faction level that you can induce Incite Defection is the White Platinum-Tier Advance Grade Lord faction! This upper limit can grow.]
[Lord Talent Hint Three: This talent can only be activated once a day!]
Zhou Zhou nodded in satisfaction after reading it.
Only two numbers had changed.
The first was that the percentage of enemies who had Incite Defection had changed from 2% to 5%!
The second was that the upper limit of the number of enemies for Incite Defection had increased from 10,000 units to 30,000 units!
Zhou Zhou was pleasantly surprised.
He did not expect that the advancement from Black Iron-Tier to Green Bronze-Tier would have such a good effect on Incite Defection.
A 5% Incite Defection ratio!
If the enemy base was high, this 5% could completely unleash an astonishing effect!
A moment later, after Zhou Zhou's mood returned to normal, he called Zhang Kaishan and his brother in.
"Greetings, my Lord!"
The two brothers immediately greeted respectfully.
"Mhm."
"As you can see, I've already completely conquered the Desolate Gobi."
"Next, I'll give you a task which you have to do well."
"Tomorrow."
"Send people to clean up the scattered fog monsters in the entire Desolate Gobi so that the fog monsters will no longer disturb the Desolate Gobi!"
"You should have heard that this Desolate City is going to become a commercial city, right?"
"Clearing the scattered monsters in the area so that there are no more safety hazards here is the foundation for this matter. You should understand the importance of this matter."
"This is the map of the Desolate Gobi."
"It records the distribution of scattered monsters in the Desolate Gobi area. You can just use it to clean up the monsters."
Zhou Zhou took out a map dungeon of the Desolate Gobi and handed it to them.
"From tomorrow onwards, we will immediately clear out the scattered monsters in the Desolate Gobi area. We guarantee that it will not affect the Lord's plans for the commercial city."
Zhang Kaishan said respectfully.
Zhou Zhou acknowledged.
"Also…"
"As a city of commerce…"
"It's not good to call it Desolate City anymore."
"From now on…"
"Desolate City will be changed to Sand Gold City."
"The Desolate Gobi will become Sand Gold Land."
Zhou Zhou said.
"Yes!"
"One last thing."
"Sand Gold City will be a commercial city in the future."
"I definitely can't let you two, who don't understand business, continue to be City Lords."
"I'll send a new City Lord over tomorrow."
"This new City Lord will be very proficient in business matters."
"He will become the new City Lord of Sand Gold City and preside over Sand Gold City's future business development plan."
"And you two will take a step back and become the Vice City Lord of Sand Gold City."
"You have to cooperate with him."
"Help him develop Sand Gold City well."
"Do you have any objections?"
Zhou Zhou looked at the two of them.
He thought that the two of them would be indignant after hearing his words.
After all, they had been City Lords for a day or two.
However, when the two of them heard this news, not only were they not unwilling, they even heaved a sigh of relief.
"I have no objections!"
"I can't be happier."
Zhang Kaishan could not help but laugh.
Zhou Zhou was stunned.
"We brothers also know that we don't have much business talent with our subordinates."
"I was terrified when I heard about this."
"Because we brothers know that it will be very difficult for us to develop the business city well. If we do something wrong and ruin the business city development plan in your heart, we will definitely be punished."
"Now the Lord has given this burden to someone else."
"It's the best choice for us."
"We're overjoyed. Why would we have any objections?"
They saw the confusion on Zhou Zhou's face and hurriedly explained.
When Zhou Zhou heard this, he quietly opened their loyalty and realized that their loyalty had reached 91 and 92 points.
Only then did he confirm that the two of them were not lying and a satisfied expression appeared on his face.
"Not bad."
These two people were quite self-aware.
He liked people who knew what they could and couldn't do.
Originally, he still had some grudges against their previous backgrounds.
Now, these grudges dissipated because of what the two of them said.
"It's for you."
"Work for me in this way from now on."
"I won't forget your benefits."
He took out 100 Yellow Gold-Tier Mist Cores and placed them beside them.
"Thank you for the reward, my Lord."
When the two of them saw the 100 Yellow Gold-Tier Mist Cores, their breathing immediately quickened.
His Lordship was actually so generous!
Two lines of notifications flashed across Zhou Zhou's eyes.
Their loyalty reached 95 and 96 points!
The corners of Zhou Zhou's mouth twitched.
These two people.
Their money-loving nature had not changed.
He shook his head.
He didn't care.
Who didn't love money?
…
A moment later.
Zhou Zhou asked Wu Xin, Bai Yi, and the others to temporarily camp in Sand Gold City.
He stepped onto Nezario's back and flew to Blazing Sun City alone.
He planned to go back and upgrade his territory. In addition, he would integrate the Sand Gold Land's regional order into the territory stone tablet so that he could completely occupy two regional territories.
A moment later.
Before the Scarlet Fog appeared.
Zhou Zhou rushed back to Blazing Sun City.
However, the moment he entered the city, Zhou Zhou saw Wu Xin chatting with three old men.
When they saw Zhou Zhou, Wu Xin immediately stood up and bowed.
When the three elders found out that the young man who had suddenly arrived was the Lord of The Blazing Sun, surprise flashed in their eyes. Then, they stood up and bowed.
"You don't have to be polite with me."
"May I know who you are…"
Zhou Zhou asked doubtfully.
"The three of us have admired My Lord for a long time."
"We're here this time."
"I'm here to seek refuge with you and serve you, my Lord."
"And find a place to retire."
A chubby old man among the three chuckled.
Retirement…
What a familiar word…
Zhou Zhou immediately reacted.
These were the talents that he had attracted with the three points of Reputation Rating he had obtained in the newbie test.
However, he looked at the three old men.
For a moment, he did not know what to say.
How did Blazing Sun City really become a center for senior cadres?
He complained in his heart.
