The Ocean Lord Is Unusually Powerful

"Target selected: Velus."

"Qualification being tested...The selected target can evolve into a white ordinary-level hero, and resources can be invested to further improve it."

Ji Chen suddenly showed an unexpected expression.

In terms of qualifications alone without adding any resources, he could evolve into a white ordinary level. This was not beyond his expectation.

After all, Velus was just a butler of a small noble in his previous life, and his ability limit was there.

Hero Emblem can increase the upper limit of the user by investing resources.

This is similar to the military technology tree.

Both require resources, but he can first see which method saves resources more.

Ji Chen first tried the former, investing in worthless basic resources such as wood and fiber to see if it would work.

He thought about what resources should be better invested.

Now, in addition to resources such as wood, he also has secondary resources such as copper and diamonds, third-level resources such as crystal and mithril, and fourth-level resources such as sulfur.

Naturally, the more advanced the resources invested, the better.

But after much thought, it was better for Jean to choose crystals. He had a lot of them and was confident.

First, I tried investing 500 units of crystals.

This time it took effect, the hero's emblem exuded a faint light and felt warm to the touch.

But there was no movement. Obviously, a mere 500 units of crystals were not enough to make Velus a higher-level hero.

Next, Ji Chen began to test one by one.

Invest 2500 units of crystals to evolve into a green elite hero.

The green elite level is exactly the same as Sparrow's level, but as a domestic hero, the green elite level is far from enough, at least not enough to satisfy his appetite.

Keep experimenting.

Invest another 7500 units of crystals, and the hero level can be upgraded to blue excellent level.

The blue excellent level is the same as Benbo Erba. Heroes of this level are already dominant in other players' territories, and there are not many players with heroes of this level.

After a round of experiments, Ji Chen got the data he wanted.

To upgrade from the white ordinary level to the purple excellent level, a total of 20,000 units of crystals are needed, which is at least 150,000 units of basic resources.

But if he upgrades through the military technology tree, he only needs a total of 30,000 units of resources.

It is clear at a glance which of the two methods is better.

Ji Chen could only sigh once again at the power of the military technology tree.

Not only can you increase the level abruptly, but it also consumes much less resources than the Hero Emblem.

It seems that this heroic emblem can only be used to help Velus evolve from an ordinary person to a hero and make a transition.

"Do you want to consume the hero emblem to make the selected target a white ordinary hero?"

"yes."

"Ding~ Velus becomes a white ordinary hero."

With the identity of a hero, it is naturally included in the military technology tree, and page 5 appears on it.

Seeing this, Ji Chen didn't waste any time and immediately opened the military technology tree and started to advance Velus.

Nodes are unlocked one after another, directly rising from the white common level to the purple rare level.

A flash of brilliant light enveloped Velus.

A moment later, an energy that seemed to come from the nine heavens came to the world. It was mysterious and majestic, like a waterfall flowing down from a ten thousand-foot cliff, pouring straight into his head.

Vast power lingers around.

The progression lasted half an hour.

After the light dissipated, Velus' figure was revealed.

At first glance, the appearance has not changed much, but the whole person's temperament has changed greatly, and it has become a bit more majestic.

The eyes that were originally slightly cloudy became clearer, and became a little more shrewd and energetic.

Coupled with a neatly ironed butler's uniform and meticulously combed black hair, at first glance, he looked like a big noble or businessman.

Ji Chen became very interested and checked his attribute panel.

【Velus (Hero)

[Race]: Human

[Level]: Purple Rare Level

[Level]: 10

[Skills]: Internal Affairs Management (purple skill, with strong internal affairs management capabilities, more than enough to manage even a small principality)

Frugality (purple skill, good at food management, can slow down food consumption by 50%, and will not reduce the popularity of the territory)

Coordination (purple skill, able to coordinate territory development and reduce resources required for construction by 20-30%)

Propaganda (purple skill, improves the loyalty of residents who have just joined the territory, and reduces the decline in people's support in the territory)

Good guy, in terms of skill level, it's not much different from Anina and Alice.

Every skill is born for internal affairs, and none of them are deformed.

Needless to say, housekeeping and frugality are things that have always been there, and it is super-evolved to become like this.

As for coordination and publicity, one can reduce construction costs, and the other can reduce the degree of decline in public support when a large population joins the territory. They are both first-class and useful skills.

A lot of resources were spent, almost all the time stored up was used up.

When I think about it carefully, I still feel a little distressed, but it's distressing, and Ji Chen still thinks it's worth it.

Compared to a purple rare-level internal affairs hero, tens of thousands of resources are quite cheap. If others knew that tens of thousands of resources could be exchanged for a purple rare-level hero, they would definitely be jealous.

Because resources can be dug, bought or grabbed by various means, but this is not necessarily the case with heroes. Meeting them all depends on luck.

Velus, who successfully evolved into a hero, was naturally very grateful to Ji Chen and immediately swore to be absolutely loyal to him and serve him till the end.

Ji Chen encouraged him a few words and then let him leave.

Through the half-open door, I saw that the sky was already darkening.

He stood up and stretched a little, sighing that the day passed quite quickly, and it passed in the blink of an eye.

Looking back on the past few days, a lot of things have happened. After I came back from the outside, I immediately encountered an attack by the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce. After defeating them and subduing Raymond, I began to explore the dragon's nest on the mountain. Then I quickly went down the mountain when I encountered a shock.

One thing happens one after another, but there is no doubt that the gains gained from these things are also extremely rich.

Compared to the day after returning from the sea, the Ocean Crown is now stronger.

All of this is inseparable from the efforts of his lord!

Try to think about it, without a wise lord, how could the territory develop so rapidly?

Ji Chen praised himself like a shit in his heart.

Seeing that the sun was setting, he began to think that he should rest now or work hard to inspect the territory.

At this time, six graceful maids with beautiful faces and large white chests walked in gracefully, holding plates of exquisite food in their hands.

Seeing this, Ji Chen immediately gave up the idea of ​​going on patrol. He had already been working for a day anyway, so why should he rest?

But after thinking about it, he didn't seem to have given instructions to these maids before?

So I asked, and the answer I got was:

"Sir Velus asked us to come. He said that you are very hungry and exhausted after a long day's work. Please let us serve you with meals and baths."

Hearing this answer, Ji Chen immediately gave Velus a thumbs up in his heart.

very good! He is indeed his chief internal affairs officer and a loyal minister indeed! It seems that the effect of advancing to become a hero is immediate!

Since it was his subordinate's wish, it was hard for him to refuse, so he could only accept it reluctantly to avoid being said to be inconsiderate of his subordinates.

After thinking about this, Ji Chen waved to them with a wicked smile.

The faces of these flower-like maids are charmingly rosy, and their eyes are as bright as water. Each of the six maids has their own style, cute, cool, pure, shy, bold, or... Looking at Ji Chen hungrily.

Several of them had come here via the ships of the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce before, and they knew the importance of each lord who could bring them a stable life.

If they can get close to the ruler of this territory now, their future lives will be more secure.

This night, they tried their best to please Ji Chen, making Ji Chen truly feel what the corrupt life of a lord was, which was ten times more exciting than the blond girl's clothes before.

When you open your mouth, the maid will bring you fresh fruits and fine wine. When you move your legs, you can enjoy a pair of soft massages. If you just reach out, you will find a mosaic that cannot pass the inspection.

It completely explains what wine pond and meat forest is.

Noon the next day.

Ji Chen looked at the dark circles on his face in the mirror and felt bad.

So he made up his mind and said firmly.

"I was hurt by drinking and sex, and I turned out to be so haggard. From today on, I will stop drinking!"

When he walked out of the Lord's Mansion, he saw Velus walking over with a smile and saluted.

"Sir, did you have a good time last night? Those maids were all carefully selected by me among the slaves. They definitely match your taste. It would be enough for an ordinary person to deal with one, but you can actually deal with six. You are worthy of being a lord! "

As he spoke, he had an expression of admiration on his face.

Ji Chen just wanted to praise him, but when he saw Alice walking over from the corner of his eye, his expression suddenly changed and he cursed.

"You know six more. Last night made me almost unable to get up today! It's all your fault!"

Velus was stunned by this wave of scolding.

But he was already a hero after all, and his brain became more enlightened. He quickly reacted and quickly apologized.

"It's my fault that I failed to understand my lord's intention. I hope you can forgive me for my mistake."

Seeing this, Ji Chen's face became better, but he still said with a straight face: "I hope you can reflect on it and don't let me down."

At this time, Alice also came close, looking a little aggrieved and saying nothing, just looking at him.

Ji Chen coughed a few times awkwardly and winked at Velus.

As soon as the master and servant's eyes met, they understood immediately and said quickly: "Sir, I have something to report to you. It is an urgent matter!"

"If it's an urgent matter, let's talk about it in the Lord's Mansion."

With that said, the two hurried to the Lord's Mansion and closed the door.

After seeing Alice leave through the crack in the door, Ji Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

How should I put it, just now I felt guilty about being caught by the main palace, and a sense of excitement.

Looking back at Velus, he smiled and praised: "You did a good job. I am very satisfied with those maids."

"As long as your Excellency is satisfied," Velus said, "Actually, I really have something to report to you."

"whats the matter?"

"Just now, fishermen who were out fishing discovered traces of what seemed to be Haiji!"

"Didn't you tell me earlier?" Ji Chen's expression changed, "Where did you find it?"

"It's near the northeastern sub-island. According to the fishermen, there are only about twenty of them, like a reconnaissance team, wandering around on the sea near there."

Ji Chen felt a little relieved. It seemed that Hai Si had not discovered the location of the territory. It should be because all the Hai Si who came here to hunt for food died last time, so he sent a reconnaissance team to detect it.

Just near Tohoku Island?

After the last encounter with Hai Si, Ji Chen was already mentally prepared to go to war with Hai Si.

But when starting a war, it is natural to choose a position that is advantageous to one's side.

He has already chosen this location. It is on the northeastern sub-island, where there are large ruins of city walls. These walls can be used to effectively build a defense system to resist Haiji's attack.

Due to its geographical location, Ocean Crown is located on an island. It does not want to build some walls like other mainland players, and it is completely undefended.

Once Haiji expands the battlefield to the main island, the number of Haiji may affect the security of the territory, and the losses may exceed his imagination.

Therefore, it is best to limit the battle to the northeast sub-island.

"Sir, how should we deal with that Haihei reconnaissance team?" Velus asked.

He also already knows how difficult those heirs are to evolve uncontrollably, which is simply a nightmare for any living being.

You may be able to beat it once, but who can guarantee whether you will develop targeted abilities the second time or after the third time.

"How many stones are there in the territory now?" Ji Chen did not answer, but asked.

Velus was stunned, but still answered truthfully: "During the time when you went to sea, we discovered many stone resource points in the underground caves, so now we have accumulated a lot of stone, about 20,000 units. "

Twenty thousand units?

It's not enough, but it's almost there.

When he attacked the skeleton army on the Northeast Island, he discovered the remains of the city wall fortifications on it. Like the early warning lighthouse, it could be repaired.

However, for such a large site, the amount of stone required to repair it is an astronomical amount, which is definitely not something that the current Ocean Crown can bear.

If it were to repair a few sections, it would still be within his capabilities.

As long as those sections can be repaired, Ji Chen is confident that he can withstand even if the heirs several times their number come!

But the top priority now is to eliminate the Haixi reconnaissance team as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if they touch the territory of the main island, the hive mind will instantly transmit the situation here to their mastermind, and it will not be up to him to decide where the war will begin.
