11: Chapter 11: Summoning Heroes and Troops Again

"Pop."

The dialog box disappeared in front of Sun Yu.

"Wait..."

Sun Yu suddenly reacted, hurriedly opening the dialog box again to confirm that what he had last seen was not an illusion.

"Holy crap, someone finally agreed." Excitedly waving his arms forcefully, Sun Yu immediately replied: "Are you sure? A Rare Grade Hero Token and three times of vassal-level protection, not a single one can be missing; this is my bottom line."

"That works."

"But you need to make up for some of the resources or Origin Crystals as the price difference."

Lin Xiao replied.

"Easy, easy." With his core requirements met, Sun Yu felt relieved and began to discuss with Lin Xiao.

In the end, the two reached an agreement.

With things going so smoothly, Sun Yu was still a bit uneasy; he didn't sign the contract immediately but instead opened Lin Xiao's profile to take a look.

Seeing that Lin Xiao's territory size was 570,000 square meters, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Territory size equals strength.

Whether this territory came from a territory expansion card or converted Void Land, it proved the other party's powerful strength.

It is no exaggeration to say that Lin Xiao's territory size absolutely belongs to the first tier among the new batch of lords.

Even if there are lords whose territory is larger than Lin Xiao's, it is because they used a territory expansion card, which does not mean they have conquered the fifth layer of the Void Land.

After all, it also takes time for the fifth layer of the Void Land to border the territory.

"Perfect Hero Token, acquired."

A look of joy appeared on Lin Xiao's face; the hero problem was solved, and next were the units.

He searched for the second person, the big shot Gao Yue spoke of.

"Jin Ruxuan."

"The surname Jin, could it be the Jinshi Chamber of Commerce?"

Lin Xiao's heart skipped a beat. The Jinshi Chamber of Commerce was a top-tier large chamber of commerce throughout the entire Eastern Province, undoubtedly one of the major powers.

The Jinshi Chamber of Commerce followed a commercial path; they possessed endless wealth, and even in the Main World, their shops were everywhere.

If he was a Prodigy lord from the Jinshi Chamber of Commerce, it wouldn't be strange for him to have a perfect grade barracks blueprint in his hands.

Jin Ruxuan was undoubtedly a very busy man; it took a while before he accepted Lin Xiao's friend request.

Jin Ruxuan: "Are you the one Gao Yue introduced?"

"As for the perfect grade military talisman, I can provide it after the Seven-Day Assessment."

"Right now, I only have a perfect grade barracks blueprint on hand."

He was clearly a business elite who believed in efficiency above all else; without any unnecessary chatter, he sent over a building blueprint directly.

Lin Xiao hurriedly looked at it.

[Frost Fortress]

[Rank: Perfect]

[Type: Barracks]

[Requirements: Eternal Frost Stone, Extraterrestrial Cold Iron, Eternal Winter Crystal, etc.]

[After construction, you can spend certain resources to recruit the Giant Race perfect grade unit—Frost Giant.]

"Frost Giant, an alien race unit."

Seeing the blueprint's attributes, Lin Xiao immediately frowned; he understood why this perfect grade blueprint hadn't been sold by Jin Ruxuan until now.

Because it is an alien race unit.

Generally speaking, when using Hero Tokens and military talismans, unless they have specific recruitment targets, the summoned creatures are all of the same race.

Jiang Yao and Wang Wu and the others are all of the Human Race, which is a prime example.

Compared to units of one's own race, alien units are not easy to coordinate with in battle due to racial differences; this is the first point.

The biggest problem lies in the fact that the power systems of both sides may also be vastly different.

Within the Human Race territory, the existing extraordinary energy is Spiritual Qi; upgrading the territory Rank increases the concentration of Spiritual Qi. Unless the lord completely changes the essence of the territory and follows other extraordinary paths, there will be no other extraordinary energy within the territory.

This limits the prospects of alien units among Human Race lords.

If it were those alien units that also absorb Spiritual Qi to Cultivate, that would be fine, and the problem wouldn't be very big, but the Frost Giant is clearly a magic-oriented unit at a glance.

They cannot absorb Spiritual Qi to improve their attributes; they remain as they were when first summoned.

Unless Lin Xiao is willing to use exotic flowers and fruits like the blood red fruit that can directly increase attributes, or invest countless resources to forcibly improve their strength.

This investment is too great.

Simply put, those who can afford it don't want it, and those who want it can't afford it.

Lin Xiao: "The limitations of the Frost Giant are too great; it's not worth this price."

Jin Ruxuan quickly replied: "I can gift all the Materials for building the barracks. Also, if you purchase the recruitment Materials from me, the price of recruitment Materials for the first ten Frost Giants will be halved."

Seeing this, Lin Xiao immediately began to ponder.

Jin Ruxuan's offer was quite sincere. The Advanced Materials needed to build a perfect grade barracks were undoubtedly a significant expense, and recruiting units also required corresponding Materials.

Although the Frost Giant has great limitations, it is still a perfect grade unit, and its early-stage strength is strong enough.

Others are not interested because they are not in a hurry. After the Seven-Day Assessment, when they can return to the Main World, they have plenty of better choices.

But Lin Xiao is different; he is in urgent need of immediate combat power.

"I agree."

"But can I pay the debt in installments?"

Unlike the Hero Token, Lin Xiao planned to keep that Rare Grade military talisman for his own use, so he didn't have enough wealth on hand.

After all, this is a perfect grade item; no matter how low the price is, it can't be that low.

Even though Jin Ruxuan was knowledgeable and experienced, seeing this from Lin Xiao, he couldn't help but send a few dots.

In the end, he still agreed to Lin Xiao's proposal.

Lin Xiao had powerful strength and was considered a high-quality customer worth investing in. Moreover, the longer this Frost Fortress blueprint remained in his hands, the more it would depreciate; its price was highest during the Seven-Day Assessment period.

"Hahaha."

Inside the territory, Lin Xiao couldn't help but laugh out loud.

After a round of trading, he lost a Rare Grade Hero Token but gained a perfect grade Hero Token and a perfect grade barracks blueprint.

It is foreseeable that his territory's strength will usher in an unprecedented wave of enhancement.

Coming to the north side of the territory, Lin Xiao found an open space. As the corresponding resources were deducted, the phantom of the Frost Fortress appeared at a slow speed.

For a perfect grade building, the construction time is naturally longer, requiring six hours.

He didn't stand there waiting foolishly. After returning to the Lords Mansion, he immediately took out the perfect grade Hero Token and the Rare Grade military talisman and chose to use them.

An illusory river instantly appeared, and countless fragments of time flashed by. A stalwart giant, like an iron tower, walked out from within. He was two meters tall, holding a giant iron axe, and riding a magnificent black horse as dark as ink.

An incredibly terrifying Aura emanated from his body, making Lin Xiao feel as if he were facing thousands of troops and horses.

The intensity of the Aura far exceeded that of Jiang Yao.

At the same time, a light gate appeared, and one after another, tall figures walked out from inside.

I don't know if it was because the Hero Token and the military talisman were used at the same time, but the newly summoned units were all cavalry, and they were heavy cavalry with both men and horses clad in fire-red armor.
