The first target chosen was the resource point northeast of the town hall.
A resource point is a special resource that must exist within every territory. Basically, whether a territory is rich or poor largely depends on the number of resource points.
The Golden Pansy Domain has only one resource point, which is roughly considered not prosperous.
Lin Rui, along with three knights, walked to the resource point and gazed at the territory's great treasure. The resource point was not the mine most people imagined but a sculpture of a bare-chested female. Thus, some also refer to the resource point as the gift from the Earth Mother Goddess. The level of the resource point is differentiated by the sculpture's material. The sand sculpture before them is a small resource point. Stone sculpture is a medium resource point. Above that are bronze, silver, and gold sculptures.
Due to the previous demise of the Lord of the Golden Pansy Territory, the territory has fallen into ruin, losing control of the resource point. The materials piled inside the resource point have turned into protectors under the influence of the sculpture.
Anyone who wants to occupy this resource point must defeat these protectors.
Before the battle, Lin Rui reviewed the Information on the opposite:
[Nobra Spore Thrower · Ordinary-level Wild Monster]
[Level: 8]
[Physique: 11]
[Intelligence: 6]
[Charm: 0]
[Will: -1]
[Commander: 0]
[Soul: 0]
[Luck: 0]
[Life Value: 110]
[Spiritual Energy: 0]
[Trait: None]
[Skill: Spore Throwing lv1: Throws explosively unique racial spores, dealing 30 points of physical damage. When hit 3 times consecutively, causes spore spread, dealing 1 point of damage per second for 5 seconds.]
[The most common green-skinned orcs, able to sustain life through photosynthesis alone, have negligible combat power. But never ignore their existence due to their weakness. Since every Nobra can scatter spores, leading to the growth of a stronger orc.]
No need to wonder, after a month, Nobra must have grown a stronger, larger orc.
Indeed, amidst the coarse voices of thirty-six Nobra, six burly, heavily-fanged orcs stepped forth from behind.
[Beastman boy · Ordinary-level Wild Monster]
[Level: 10]
[Physique: 18]
[Intelligence: 3]
[Charm: 1]
[Will: 1]
[Commander: 0]
[Soul: 0]
[Luck: 0]
[Life Value: 180]
[Spiritual Energy: 30]
[Trait: My Power of Thought: My thought wanders, and I can become bigger and stronger. (Indeed, he will gradually become bigger and stronger! The more, the faster the enhancement effect!)]
[Skill: Beastial Roar lv5: Output relies on roaring! I feel that after roaring, the output is fiercer! War cry will increase damage, the louder the sound, the higher the boost. Maximum cap 20%.]
After reviewing the wild monster information, Lin Rui gained a new understanding of this world's danger level.
This is merely the wild monster of a single resource point, yet has grown exceptionally strong and unreasonable, entirely subjective! They believe they are strong, so they become strong. Moreover, the longer, the stronger. It's like competing in farming with the lord!
However, there's a benefit; No matter what stage the lord discovers this resource point, attacking is challenging, offering the lord matched strength rewards.
But if one cannot win, then everything is in vain!
"Go! Kill them all." Lin Rui waved, and a dozen-inch slender crystalline ice needle pierced into Roger's waist.
"Oww!" Despite Roger's strong will, he couldn't help but cry out in pain, looking at Lin Rui with resentment: "Lord, you should use spiritual energy to attack monsters, why jab my waist!"
"Didn't you feel life flourishing, and your body becoming stronger?" Lin Rui asked sincerely.
"Does getting stronger mean the waist won't hurt?" Roger replied just as seriously.
"A little pain helps you firmly remember the fact of becoming stronger! Your enhanced time only lasts three minutes."
"Oww!"
"Oww!"
Duncan and Lusen likewise couldn't escape the fate of getting their waists jabbed.
Yet, under this "painful howl," the strength of the trio indeed improved across the board, damage +10%, speed +10%, endurance +10%.
The three felt their energy burst throughout their body, speed like the wind, body relaxed, instantly surpassing their usual peak state.
Roger roared a battle cry: "Fearless Charge!"
The silver axe spear turned dazzling azure blue at the blade, the axe spear directly skewering a Beastman boy, striking it flying over three meters high.
[-40]
[-125]
Two red numbers appeared simultaneously over the head of the wild beastman boy.
The beastman boy was still mid-air, delayed in reaction, while the axe spear sliced through the air with frosty brilliance.
[-90]
[Ding, your subordinate, Elite Knight Roger, killed a wild monster · Beastman boy, you as Lord gained 10% experience. Experience +30.]
Only then did the beastman boy's massive body heavily collapse to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Strong indeed! This is the elite-level troop's strength? Slaying ordinary-level troops as if butchering pigs and dogs.
Following closely, Duncan charged toward a beastman boy.
[-10]
[-85]
The Hammer of Dizziness thrown out, the beastman boy immediately brandished a golden dizziness mark overhead. The beastman boy rushing forward subsequently lost control of form, crashing head-on into Duncan's warhammer.
[-75]
The dizziness mark dissipated, but the dizzy beastman boy shook its head, unable to view the situation, as a battle hammer emanating dark frosty glint slammed head-on into its face.
[-95]
[Ding, your subordinate, Excellence Knight Duncan, killed a wild monster · Beastman boy, you as Lord gained 10% experience. Experience +30.]
[Ding, your subordinate, Excellence Knight Lusen, killed a wild monster · Beastman boy, you as Lord gained 10% experience. Experience +30.]
After watching this battle, Lin Rui gained a thorough understanding of his subordinates' strength. They are human-shaped main battle tanks! Sweeping through ordinary-level troops.
Without Lin Rui having to act, the three knights completely shattered this resource defense team within three minutes.
