Lord of the Earth

[A hero (silver) in your territory is promoted to a hero (gold), the territory’s luck is +5000, and he gets a reward from the will of the earth: a scroll of heroes’ matching arms ·1! 】

[Your territory successfully defeated the 'Cyclops' clan, the territory's luck +50000, and received a precious golden treasure chest (transformation) · 2 from the will of the earth as a reward...]

[Your territory received a lot of luck during the opening of 'City of Humans', and received the reward "Invitation (Jade White)·1" from the Will of the Earth! 】

[Your territory has successfully eradicated a large number of alien races, opened up a 'pure land' for the human race in the eternal land, and received a special reward from the will of the earth: the Secret Fairy Order (Jade White)! 】

Four messages in a row.

Every piece of information is enough to make an ordinary lord happy and unable to sleep, but Xia Tian's face is relatively calm!

Just because he returned to his territory with two "Nine Sons of Dragon Statues", he saw the broken city walls that were blasted under the "Thunder Spear", the buildings destroyed by the Cyclops in the battle, and countless Less injured or even dead humans!
Although the existence of "Little Yaochi" can provide combatants with a range of treatment.

But it is not absolute.

Because the scope of the entire battlefield is too large, the people that "Little Yaochi" can rescue are only limited to the area around it.

Moreover, the "scented medicinal power" can only restore a person's injuries and blood, but cannot "resurrection from the dead."

This can only be done by consuming Xiaoyaochi's own "blood essence" before the deceased's own consciousness has completely dissipated, and then combining it with the "natal magical power" awakened after becoming a human!

But at present, any "magical power" cannot be used indefinitely.

Only some important personnel can be rescued.

For example, Hua Rong!
As a very popular and well-known being in the Water Margin world, Hua Rong has the potential to be rated as "excellent" after arriving in the Eternal Land.

In the last round of fusion of heaven and earth, he was promoted to the top potential hero through the blessing of the lord, but until today, he had not officially entered the category of "golden hero".

The main reason is that there are too many outstanding people in the territory, and the "contribution" that each outstanding person can make is scattered.

Although, Hua Rong is the second outstanding person to join the territory.

But when he was at the mortal level and with Wu Song, whose combat power was considered to be top-notch, Hua Rong had not many opportunities to make a move...

After the second fusion of heaven and earth, the joining of golden historical figures such as Zhao Yun and Gao Shun reduced Hua Rong's opportunities to "lead troops to fight" and was once arranged by Xia Tian to train "archers"!
Until these few days, the core high-level leaders of the territory collectively entered the sea of ​​​​illusion to "retreat".

As the elder of the territory, Hua Rong was once again entrusted with important responsibilities.

In this battle, he took the lead. With the blessing of the military formation, he resisted the attacks of the "magic weapons" of the Cyclops clan who had undergone nine transformations, completed his own "transformation", and officially set foot in the eternal land to be recognized as a "golden hero". "Category!

【Hua Rong (gold)】

[Level] Eighth level of metamorphosis

[Superpower] The power of string control (can control the bow and arrow with its own special power with the mind)

[Talent] Archery Hero (has extraordinary talent for archery, can learn and copy various archery skills, and is better than his master)
[Characteristics] Xiao Liguang (the arrows shot can cause greater damage to aliens), Yujian (when leading a shooting team, he can communicate with his subordinates, and when both parties attack the same target, they can produce 'resonance')
[Skills] "Flower Moon Archery Code·Original (Gold)"; Archery (Grandmaster), Marksmanship (Master), Riding (Master), Bird Taming (Expert)

[Description] A human hero with great potential, possessing great courage and skills!
Like Wu Song, Hua Rong's own talents and characteristics have also undergone certain changes after his promotion. In addition to his further improvement in talents.

The original "Silver Gunner" trait was replaced by a "Arrow Control" trait with a commanding nature.

Although, in terms of close combat, it may become weaker as a result.

But the long-range attack is undoubtedly greatly enhanced, especially the "String Control" power, which is definitely very useful for an archer.

This means that Hua Rong will be able to control bows and arrows by himself, and the so-called "one man can form an army" in the future may not be a lie!

"Captain Hua...you dare to be the first! Not only did you shoot and injure two Cyclops, you are also the key to the victory of this territory."

Xia Tian saw that the clothes and armor on his body were destroyed by the "Thunder Spear", although he no longer looked like his original "white teeth, red lips, handsome eyes, and clear eyebrows at the temples" style.

On the contrary, Hua Rong, who gave people a sense of calmness, flashed with light in his hand, and took out a golden scroll and a "Born Rare Item - Embryo" in the form of a light ball.

"These two items can help you get one step closer..."

The natal rare object embryo came from the reward that Zhao Yun received after he was promoted to Tianjiao. This scroll that fits the arms is the reward from the will of the earth after Hua Rong's breakthrough just now!

[Scroll of the Combination of Heroes and Arms (Gold)]

[Explanation] After use, it will be transformed into a "training manual" for the military unit that is most suitable for the hero himself!
[Remarks] Troops cannot exceed the level limit of the hero himself and the scroll.

Judging from its attributes, this item is undoubtedly valuable.

Theoretically, Xia Tian could choose to leave it for other people to use.

You can even use it for yourself to cultivate a suitable "pro-army".

But after thinking about it for a while.

Xia Tian still gave it directly to Hua Rong!

After all, Hua Rong himself was a military attaché.

This battle relies on oneself and the power of Feng Shui to produce an effect equivalent to a "military formation."

If you really get a "unit" that suits you, you can definitely go one step further and become the core combat force of the territory.

"Thank you sir!"

Hua Rong took the scroll with both hands, his tone was respectful and grateful.

Unlike other people in the territory who thought Huang Rong saved him by using the "bronze medicine furnace" in her hand.

He knew very clearly that he was saved by "Little Yaochi" with his blood.

Yaochi's public identity in the territory is Xia Tian's "sister", and the rescue also comes from Xia Tian's arrangement.

hum!
And when Hua Rong opened the scroll.

I saw that the scroll first turned into thousands of golden lights, and then was combined into a military training manual, with the three words "Yulin Army" in gold on the cover!

"Habayashi Army?"

Xia Tian's heart moved.

The Yulin Army was also a famous military unit in ancient times.

Initially, it was the palace imperial army established during the period of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, and it was also the origin of the "imperial army" in subsequent dynasties.

Yu Linlang was born as an official in the Han Dynasty. He first fought with the Hussar in Yuyang.Who knows if I don't know the pain of being in the side court? Even if I die, I can still smell the fragrance of the chivalrous bones... I can make two carvings in one body, I can ride on a thousand-weight horse that seems to be nothing, I sit on a golden saddle with white feathers, and I shoot five men one after another...

Well, this is indeed a unit that is very suitable for Hua Rong.

"Everyone! Your performance is also very heroic. From today on, you are officially named 'Habayashi Guards'!"

Later, Xia Tian looked at the three hundred "shooters" trained by Hua Rong with admiration on his face.

"Thank you for your name!"

Surprise on the face of an archer holding a bow and arrow.

This meant that they were recognized by Xia Tian and became the official soldiers of the territory like "Yunjiao, Tianying, Zhenzhen, and Tiger Guard".

For soldiers, it is a high honor!

These people were all selected through the qualifications of the "Star Palace" and received Hua Rong's own inheritance in Langhuan Jade Mansion. Each of them has shooting skills above the proficiency level!

He will definitely live up to the name "Habayashi Wei".

"The Yulin Guards serve as the country's wings, as prosperous as the forest! Lord Xia named this army so, I'm afraid it has some deep meaning..."

In the recruitment hall above the territory, Jiang Wei and Qi Jiguang, who had watched the battle from beginning to end, had their eyes flickering.

Not much surprise, though.

After all, the number of people in Bai Yujing now exceeds [-], which was already the size of a county in ancient times.

Moreover, now the only "Cyclops" that can pose a threat has been defeated.

As long as we take another step forward, it will not be far away from "building a country" again in this world.

And for those who are interested in joining the elites in the territory, this should be the best time!
"Well, except for Hua Rong's promotion rewards, the other items are also considered to have their own merits."

For example, two mortal gold treasure chests.

You know, in these days.

By constantly saving humans and cleaning up alien races, Bai Yujing has once again accumulated seven mortal-level treasure chests, plus the two mortal-level treasure chests of the Cyclops.

This means that there is only one left to combine to create a new mortal-level "Jade White Treasure Box"!This does not include the dozens of mortal treasure chests obtained by killing subordinate races.

However, compared to treasure chests.

What Xia Tian is more concerned about at this time is the third reward for becoming the so-called "overlord".

"Secret Realm Fairy Token? Another special item!"

[Secret Fairy Order (Jade White)]

【Type】Special

[Explanation] After the "Three Fusions of Heaven and Earth" and if the conditions are met, a "secret realm" can be brought to the vicinity of the territory and opened!
[Remarks] This is a reward for a human lord who drives out alien races and becomes an "overlord".

"Good guy, leading the human race to the secret realm?"

Xia Tian's heart moved.

The previous trip to the secret realm of "Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum".

The harvest is so huge that it can definitely be said that the overall strength of the territory has been improved by more than one level.

And this time the reward for becoming a "regional overlord" is to directly lead a "secret realm" to the edge of the territory. Isn't this reward too good?
However, follow the instructions.

This thing needs to wait until heaven and earth merge before it can be used.

In contrast, the last item, "Jade White Invitation", is more practical.

After all, now that I have completed the trial of the Sea of ​​Illusion, I can fully devote myself to the city of outstanding people. Maybe I can find another Jade Tianjiao to issue an invitation!
"Sir, someone came to the recruitment hall and said that you invited him..."

And just when Xia Tian was thinking this, A'Zhu was in charge of receiving visitors in the city of outstanding people.

Came to report in a hurry.

"Did I invite you? I've been in the 'Sea of ​​Illusion' these days, how could I invite..."

Mr. Xia was taken aback.

Then, he immediately realized something.

"Quick, change my clothes!"

Entering the lord's mansion, Qingwen asked Qingwen to wash herself quickly to clean away the dust generated by these days of "retreat" and the battle with the Cyclops leader just now.

Xia Tian put on a silver suit made of ice silk and entered the recruitment hall!
"General Jiang, General Qi!"

When they arrived at the human city, they found that Jiang Wei and Qi Jiguang had very solemn expressions on their faces.

Just because, in the living room, a person is standing with his head held high.

He is tall and tall, like a cold sculpture, wearing iron armor and a black cloak. The armor with cold light is engraved with countless traces of war.

His face is resolute, his eyes are as deep as the abyss, and there is a cold aura surrounding him, as if he is isolated from the world and difficult to approach!

"Hey, it must be that one..."

Even in summer, I feel some pressure at this time.

You must know that Jiang Wei and Qi Jiguang were already among the top military personnel in ancient times.

Their own cultivation is also very powerful under the blessing of the will of the earth. It is absolutely impossible for ordinary heroes to make the two of them reach such a state!
Plus A'Zhu's words.

The identity of this person is self-evident!

"Can we talk alone?"

The latter did not communicate with Jiang Wei and Qi Jiguang. He did not speak until he saw Xia Tian and said calmly!
"nature!"

Xia Tian brought it into a room.

"Wu Anjun's visit to my recruiting center in Bai Yujing is really a blessing..."

Zai A'Zhu put down the tea with some worry.

And after Xia Tian shook his head to indicate exiting the room, Xia Tian spoke.

"Bai Qi is just a commoner now and cannot be called 'Wu Anjun'. Lord, there is no need to be polite, just call me by my name!"

The latter spoke.

Although the tone was not very enthusiastic, it was not as cold as it appeared at the beginning.

"Lord Xia said in the invitation that I can take charge of military training and combat in Bai Yujing. Is this serious?"

Bai Qi stared at Xia Tian, ​​his eyes were far beyond ordinary people's, and they were full of deep and searching gaze.

"really!"

"There are currently two offices in my territory, 'Military Affairs and Government Affairs'. The government affairs have all been handed over to Prime Minister Zhuge! The Military Affairs Office is in charge of military affairs. Once General Bai Qi is willing to join, he will naturally have the power to make decisions on related matters."

If he had faced the gaze of "Human Tu" Bai Qi ten years before "passing through the sea of ​​illusion", Xia Tian might have sweated on his forehead!

But at this time, his eyes were very calm.

He stared at him without any fear and spoke firmly.

"In order to protect my 'feathers', I chose to disobey the king's order! Aren't you worried that I will also resist your order?"

Bai Qi's eyes changed slightly, but it was not obvious, and he continued.

"This matter is the King of Qin's own fault, so why is it the general's fault for 'cherishing feathers'?"

Xia Tian shook his head decisively.

Because, what Bai Qi said about "cherishing feathers and rejecting king's orders" was actually complicated.

In fact, during the Battle of Changping, Bai Qi chose to risk the disapproval of the world and killed 40 Zhao soldiers who had surrendered, leaving Zhao almost unable to resist.

Then, they divided their troops and advanced in three directions, preparing to destroy Zhao in one go.

Zhao was very frightened, so he sent an envoy to Qin carrying a lot of money to persuade Qin Prime Minister Fan Ju, saying that once Bai Qi destroyed Zhao, his status would be above him.

So Fan Ju told the King of Qin that the country's strength was exhausted due to continuous fighting.

Even if it defeats Zhao State, Qin State will not be able to completely occupy Zhao State's territory. Instead, it will take advantage of the other surrounding countries.

It's better to let Zhao Guo cede territory and plan for it slowly.

Therefore, the King of Qin allowed Zhao to secede six cities for peace, and ordered Bai Qi to stop his troops.

As a result, Bai Qi and Fan Ju were at odds with each other.

But when Qin had been recuperating for nearly a year and was preparing to send troops to attack Zhao again, Bai Qi expressed his opposition.

The reason is that after the battle of Changping in Zhao State, the monarchs and ministers were very frightened every day and sent envoys to the princes for help. They married Yan and Wei, made good friends with Qi and Chu, and tried their best to defend.

Although Qin had restored its national strength and was able to send twice as many troops to attack, Zhao had been able to use external forces to gather ten times the number of defenders.

Opportunities have been missed before.

There is little chance of winning this battle now!

The King of Qin refused to listen and still chose to attack Zhao.

Because Bai Qi was already ill and unable to fight at this time.

He sent Wang Ling to send troops to attack Zhao.

As a result, he encountered incidents such as "Mao Sui recommended himself" and "Xinling Lord stole amulets to save Zhao", and was besieged and defeated by the coalition forces of the princes.

Bai Qi said to King Qin.

King, if you don’t listen to my plan, what will be the result?
The King of Qin was angry and asked Bai Qi to go into battle even though he was ill. He lied down and led the troops for him.

He also said that if Bai Qi did that, he would be grateful to him in his heart.

Otherwise, you will feel resentment towards it! (End of chapter)
