54: Weapon Bag

After dealing with the last Chosen One, Li Feng returned to his territory.

This operation cost him a total of 10,000 gold coins.

However, the gold coins he recovered were only a few thousand.

They had invested almost all their resources to improve their strength.

There's a saying that circulates in the Lord circles:

'My neighbor hoards grain, I hoard guns; my neighbor is my granary.'

They naturally understood this principle, so they consumed resources as much as possible to strengthen themselves and avoid becoming someone else's granary.

Unfortunately, they were unwise enough to provoke Li Feng.

In the end, they still ended up benefiting Li Feng.

Although not much cash was received, Li Feng obtained many valuable resources like blueprints and items from these Chosen Ones.

Among them, there were over 200 Arrow Tower blueprints.

Without a word, Li Feng took out his inventory of resources and built over 200 Arrow Towers in one go.

Now, even without relying on his Troops, these Arrow Towers alone were enough to make his territory impregnable.

If an ordinary Lord were to attack, they wouldn't even see Li Feng's Troops before being completely annihilated outside the castle.

Afterward, Li Feng took out a palm-sized bag from his backpack.

【Troop Hiding Pouch】

Quality: Common

Effect: Can store 10,000 units of Troops.

Description: A magical bag, small on the outside but with a universe within, capable of instantly storing and releasing a large number of Troops...

This was an item he obtained from the large Wang Yang.

Even a Common quality Troop Hiding Pouch has a market value exceeding 100,000 gold coins.

If put up for auction, it could even fetch a price of over 100,000 gold coins.

The Troop Hiding Pouch is only palm-sized, but it contains a universe within, capable of storing a large number of Troops and releasing them instantly.

The Troop Hiding Pouch has many uses, such as feigning weakness to ambush a stronger opponent.

Imagine, you only have dozens of Troops, and a Lord with hundreds or thousands of Troops is about to attack you. You suddenly release tens of thousands of Troops—how despairing would the latter be?

Another example is surprise attacks.

In a battle between two armies, you seize the opportunity to suddenly throw the Troop Hiding Pouch next to the enemy Lord.

The next moment, a large number of Troops instantly appear to surround and kill the enemy Lord. How furious would the opponent be after reviving?

Of course, these are ultimately just unconventional methods.

The most conventional use of the Troop Hiding Pouch is for marching.

Firstly, it increases marching speed; secondly, it allows for crossing terrain.

Let's talk about increasing marching speed first.

If Beedrill and Flying Mantis were to set out together, Beedrill's speed would certainly be far inferior to Flying Mantis, slowing down the overall speed of the team.

However, by storing all the Beedrill in the Troop Hiding Pouch, Flying Mantis can travel unhindered, greatly increasing marching speed.

Now, regarding crossing terrain.

Some terrains, like swamps and cliffs, are difficult for ground Troops to pass.

But if you have Flying Troops, you can store the ground Troops in the Troop Hiding Pouch, and then the Flying Troops can easily carry them across the terrain.

All in all, the Troop Hiding Pouch is a very valuable item.

"As expected of a Chosen One, to be able to obtain such a valuable item in the Novice stage."

Muttering to himself, Li Feng summoned all the Beedrill.

Whoosh!

The next moment, thousands of Beedrill transformed into a white light and disappeared into the Troop Hiding Pouch, almost instantaneously.

Whoosh!

And in the next moment, all these Beedrill were released again.

Due to the influence of Li Feng's will, the Beedrill did not appear in their original spot but in other locations.

Afterward, Li Feng experimented multiple times.

He finally confirmed that the Troop Hiding Pouch could instantly store any of his Troops, as long as they were within the Lord's line of sight.

However, the release was a bit limited; they could only be deployed within a 100-meter radius, and if the volume of Troops was too large, they would have to be deployed in batches.

Despite this, it was still an excellent item, and its minor flaws did not overshadow its advantages.

"It would be great if I could get a few more Troop Hiding Pouches."

Li Feng thought, feeling a little greedy.

In addition to the Troop Hiding Pouch, Li Feng also obtained an Exploration Radar from He Wei.

This was a one-time consumable item.

By entering the target's name and territory title, one could lock onto the opponent's coordinates.

Of course, the maximum exploration range of the radar was a 100-kilometer radius.

Beyond this distance, the radar could not detect anything.

He Wei had already used one to locate Li Feng's position.

He didn't expect there to be a second one.

One could only say that he was indeed a Chosen One; his luck was truly extraordinary.

Subsequently, Li Feng pulled out a dozen or so Swiftness Talismans, all of Elite quality, which could double the movement speed of all Troops.

He had also obtained one when he killed Chen Hu.

And these dozen Swiftness Talismans were all obtained from one particular Chosen One.

After tallying the gains from this operation, he went to the second underground floor.

【You have successfully constructed a Monkey Ant Altar, consuming a total of 8000 wood, 8000 stone, 8000 iron blocks, and 1 Six-Tier Gemstone.】

【You have successfully constructed an Explosive Flame Earthworm Altar, consuming a total of 8000 wood, 8000 stone, 8000 iron blocks, and 1 Six-Tier Gemstone.】

Li Feng happened to have two Six-Tier Gemstones left in his possession.

Both were opened from Six-Tier Treasure Chests.

As for the two Six-Tier Treasure Chests, they were naturally obtained from the Sun Bear King and the Evil Red Dragon, respectively.

Each consuming 10,000 gold coins, he successively summoned 50 Monkey Ants and 50 Explosive Flame Earthworms.

The Monkey Ant had a monkey's head and an ant's body, similar in size to an adult, walked upright, and was covered in thick white fur.

The Explosive Flame Earthworm was a bit exaggerated, measuring five to six meters long.

Its black body burned with raging black flames, yet it had no impact on the surrounding environment.

These were the third and fourth Six-Tier Troops Li Feng had obtained, after Flying Mantis and Corpse Explosion Bug.

Looking across all competition zones, among all individual Lords, Li Feng was not only guaranteed to be first, but at least in the top three in terms of Six-Tier Troops.

If comparing quantities, he was firmly in first place.

The number of Novice Lords each year exceeds 50 million.

Being among the top three or even first out of 50 million people, the value of that achievement is self-evident.

Subsequently, Li Feng first opened the Monkey Ant's information panel.

【Monkey Ant】

Race: Insectoid

Tier: Six-Tier Troops

Level: 1

Health: 30000 (+20000)

Attack: 1620 (+820)

Defense: 1000 (+500)

Skills: Savage Charge: The Monkey Ant charges in a straight line, dealing massive damage upon hitting an enemy. The first enemy hit will be stunned, and the Monkey Ant's defense is greatly increased during the charge.

Agile Strength: When the skill is activated, the Monkey Ant's movement speed and attack speed are both greatly increased.

Bloodthirst, True Blood, Blood Lock

From the information panel, it could be deduced that the Monkey Ant was an agile physical Troops type.

He then looked at the Explosive Flame Earthworm's information panel...
