Global Lords: I Have Information System

Chapter 419: Chapter 322: Redeeming Lancer Cavalry, Points Flow Like Water

Zong Shen does not lack weapons and equipment for attack. He even possesses a few Orange Legendary level weapons and has several spare sets that can handle various battle situations.

Therefore, for his last exchange, Zong Shen chose a Rare Level shield to compensate for his shortcomings.

This time, he selected a square great shield, the same type used by the Dragonized Spear and Shield Warrior. These shields are heavier, and accordingly, their defense capability and blocking area are much higher.

[Aurora Guardian Shield (Purple)]

[Quality: Rare Level]

[Shield Defense: 265]

[Durability: 450]

[Skills: Aurora Shield Curtain lv15

Passive Skills: Impact Charging]

This shield has 100 more shield defense points compared to the previous [Silver Battle Shield].

Shield defense value essentially represents the shield’s load limit. If the absorbed impact exceeds this value, the shield will be broken. Additionally, as a protective gear for receiving hits, each attack reduces its durability to some extent.

This shield comes with two skills: one active and one passive. Based purely on guesses and imagination, the first skill is definitely an active type defense skill. From the words ”shield curtain,” it suggests a group defense skill.

As for the second passive skill, Zong Shen had no idea what Impact Charging was. He could only wait for the strategy hints to recover or personally use the [Aurora Guardian Shield] to withstand a few attacks and try it out.

Regarding other equipment, Zong Shen wasn’t planning on any further exchanges. After the Burrow Challenge ended, the battle intensity would correspondingly decrease. As he had already reequipped the main force among the Wolf Riders once, Zong Shen planned to gradually establish the Blacksmith Shop and hand it over to the Dwarf Uncle for handling.

The exchange of three Rare Level equipment pieces cost a total of 3,600 points, leaving a balance of 130,475 points.

Next, Zong Shen opened the [Support Items] section, which contained tools for coping with various terrains, climate disasters, and also offered food and purified water for purchase.

Naturally, this included support items for extreme cold climates.

For instance, a brand new sheepskin coat cost only 10 points. Currently, the dirty second-hand goods in the [Market] sold for a price equivalent to 50 units of Basic Resources each.

Besides the Lords living in the tundra regions, it’s presumed not many Lords are intentionally exchanging for cold-resistant materials right now. This is exactly the time to stock up on materials.

In the afternoon, not only did the gloomy clouds in the sky not dissipate, but the breeze blowing since yesterday afternoon also intensified a bit, causing the temperature to drop further. Though the extent isn’t significant, the continued presence of this omen is telling.

The cold wind and gloomy clouds bring a sense of late autumn to the entire world. This is part of the Lord System’s great power, capable of easily altering the environment without affecting the life of indigenous people.

Zong Shen made a large gesture and exchanged for 1,000 pieces of [Brand New Sheepskin Coat], costing 10,000 points.

Additionally, he purchased 10 crates of Durable Military Rations at a price of 600 points per crate. Each crate contains 200 portions, with each portion capable of satisfying a warrior for a full meal, replenishing approximately 60 hunger points.

Regarding water, there is already a water cellar in the territory. The 27 tons of water, as long as it’s not used for bathing or similar purposes, is entirely sufficient to meet the territory’s consumption needs. Moreover, the hot spring pool is another source of water, with the internal water source coming from the Water Rune, constantly being replaced and condensed.

Also, Zong Shen holds the construction plan for a [Deep Well], which can be built anytime. As for snow water, Zong Shen doesn’t consider letting the warriors drink it, as despite the lack of industry in this world, condensed snowflakes still contain a significant amount of dust particles. The condensation nuclei of snowflakes are dust, which can only serve as an emergency water source, not the primary drinking source.

So Zong Shen didn’t exchange for water. Besides food and sheepskin coats, he discovered some interesting heating items, such as the [Magic Energy Thermal Ball] he obtained from the Goblin Merchant Boswell. This item is a magic energy-powered heating device.

Though not cheap, each costs 350 points, nearly equivalent to exchanging for three pieces of excellent-level equipment.

Zong Shen spent 3,500 points to purchase 10 of them. Now, he owns 20 [Magic Energy Thermal Balls].

Each thermal ball is about the size of a basketball and emits heat energy by consuming magic energy. One thermal ball can provide heating for an 80-square-meter area in an enclosed environment, but in an open area, it can heat a space of only 15 to 20 square meters at most.

The consumption per second isn’t significant, at 0.012 points per second, and if used continuously for 24 hours a day, it consumes 1036.8 magic energy points, which is less than the equivalent of eleven [Basic-level Magic Energy Crystals].

Twenty can be used non-stop for 24 hours a day, consuming a total of 220 [Basic-level Magic Energy Crystals], and Zong Shen still has over 6,000 in his storage box.

Some come from the Goblin Merchant Boswell, and others were obtained from the mines.

Medical supplies were exchanged previously, and there are enough to withstand a major battle. Zong Shen was quite interested in the [Magic Energy Mechanical Falcon] used for scouting the Netherworld Serpent Apophis by a Lord in the territory before. Coincidentally, the [Support Items] offers it for exchange.

The exchange price isn’t cheap at 800 points, enough to exchange for a Rare Level piece of equipment. This indicates that the Lord using this Mechanical Falcon must be quite wealthy, practically a local tycoon in the region.

The [Magic Energy Mechanical Falcon] has a maximum scouting range of 10 kilometers, capable of projecting images, requiring magic energy to operate, and lacking attack capability.

Zong Shen exchanged for three, costing 2,400 points. Each [Magic Energy Mechanical Falcon] comes with a main body and a fist-sized projection pearl.

However, once it enters a magic barrier or an area with strong magical interference, it cannot transmit images back, though it’s quite useful in many scenarios, especially given its 10-kilometer scouting range sufficient for most reconnaissance needs.

Zong Shen can keep one, and assign the remaining ones to Wenresa and Marie.

In this wave within [Support Items], Zong Shen spent a total of 21,900 points, leaving a balance of 108,575 points, which he intends to spend entirely on [Defense Blueprints]. If any remains, he wouldn’t mind trying his luck in a points lottery.

Through the ultimate defensive battle challenge, Zong Shen gained considerable experience and realized the benefits of ultra-long-range defense towers and support towers.

This time, he quickly decided on the list of exchanges needed.

Selections within Tier Four Arrow Towers are as follows: two [Tower of Thunder], five [Moon Blade Tower], six [Giant Crossbow Tower], five [Holy Light Tower], and three [Necromancer Tower].

The exchange price for all Tier Four Arrow Towers is 3,500 points, consuming 73,500 points for this part alone.

Besides the Tier Four Arrow Towers, Zong Shen also spent 16,500 points to exchange for ten Tier Three [Elemental Arrow Tower], with a firing frequency of one shot every three seconds and a range of 1,000 meters, making Elemental Arrow Towers quite practical.

Then, Zong Shen exchanged for 100 goblin landmines, with each costing 20 points.

He also exchanged for 100 sets of [Poisoned Thorns Net] at 15 points each and 100 sets of [Ice Trap] at 35 points each, spending 7,000 points in the traps section. Indeed, points flow like water.

Now Zong Shen has 11,575 points remaining, which he plans to have some fun with in the [Points Lottery].

In the previous two exchanges at the [Points Lottery], he managed to draw some good items. This time, who knows what surprises might appear!

Zong Shen is now betting bigger and bigger, leaving 2,547 points for the lottery in the first attempt.

In the second attempt, he left 6,569 points for the lottery.

This time, he directly left 11,575 points, with the capital increasing every time.
