Chapter 661 440: Short-Term Construction Requirements, Points Exchange Begins
After treating the injuries of the two Wargs and thinking through the next steps.
Zong Shen instructed Wenresa and Luna to pilot the Burden-Bearer Mechas and, along with the warriors and the injured Wargs, return to the living quarters and the [Magic Hall] respectively.
Doris, after receiving praise from Zong Shen, happily left the central district.
They will have over three hours of rest in the afternoon, until they regroup at three o'clock.
After everyone left, Zong Shen turned back and returned to the courtyard through the snow.
Marie, wrapped in a thick fur coat, was busy collecting resources in the [Market] during a break in the gusty wind and heavy snowfall.
The arrival of Frosty Winter limited most Lords' actions and indirectly increased the activity in the [Market], making the turnover rate of goods faster and the variety more abundant.
Because it was inconvenient to travel, the water [Channel] and water [Market] became a good way for Lords to pass the time.
Now was a golden opportunity to collect those rare materials.
Marie's mind was immersed in the vast sea of [Market] goods.
She didn't even notice Zong Shen standing behind her.
"What luck!"
"Finally, everything is gathered!"
After Zong Shen waited for a few minutes and was about to greet her,
Marie suddenly let out a delighted exclamation.
"Ah, my Lord, you're back!"
As she closed the [Market] interface and her attention returned to her surroundings, she noticed Zong Shen standing behind her.
"What have you gathered?"
Zong Shen asked, smiling at Marie.
With a flip of her small hand, she produced six or seven runes and a translucent gemstone about two finger joints long.
"My Lord, look, these are Basic Space Runes and Intermediate Spatial Gemstones!"
"Now we've gathered a full set of building materials needed for a hundred kilometer-level Space Magic Array."
"We can construct our first dual-location teleportation node at any time!"
Marie was in a great mood, her rosy cheeks full of joy.
The building plan for this kind of Space Transmission Array isn't "one plan one build."
It's a permanent blueprint; as long as the materials are gathered, many can be constructed.
However, gathering suitable Space System materials isn't easy.
Since obtaining this blueprint, four to five days have passed.
Only now has Marie barely gathered the first set of materials.
With these materials, a bidirectional teleportation array can be constructed.
The main array will definitely be placed around the territory, with the corresponding sub-array in Boss Bang.
This makes commuting to and from Boss Bang much more convenient.
It also allows further development of subsequent plans in Boss Bang.
Of course, just one dual-location node is far from meeting Zong Shen's needs.
He still requires more [hundred kilometer-level teleportation arrays] to establish teleportation nodes in towns along the way to Lentax Giant City.
According to Zong Shen's estimates, with just four or five nodes, through multiple teleportation transfers, he can quickly reach Lentax Giant City.
Once the distance barrier to and from the giant city is broken, he can easily acquire giant city resources and develop indigenous people's social interactions and trade.
Additionally, Zong Shen plans to explore the southern neighboring territory, the gradually declining Saiaka State.
He has high hopes for it; the declining situation and a large number of refugees present a potential source of population for his future territory.
These plans require the construction of a large number of [hundred kilometer-level teleportation arrays], so Marie must continue to collect the necessary materials, the more the better, even at a high cost.
"This is great news!"
"We will need more teleportation arrays in the future."
"We must continuously collect materials needed for constructing Space Transmission Arrays."
"In the future, when we obtain blueprints for [thousand kilometer-level transmission arrays] or even higher-level arrays, these materials will also be useful."
Zong Shen gently patted her shoulder.
Low-level materials can be combined ten-to-one to synthesize higher-level materials.
So collecting more Space System materials won't cause any loss.
Listening to Zong Shen, Marie nodded seriously.
She has always been meticulous about every instruction from him, remembering and completing them thoroughly.
"By the way, if you see Time System materials, you can also collect them in advance."
"As for other more common rune materials or magic materials, do the same."
"For the common systems, if there's a good deal, just buy it without worrying about stock; these materials will serve as the territory's reserve resources."
"Additionally, there's a more urgent construction task."
"That is building the [Giant Wolf's Nest]. The most pressing materials are Intermediate Wood Runes and Complete Purple Souls, try to gather them quickly; I need them to recruit Tier Three Giant Wolves."
Zong Shen instructed, because complete souls are in high demand as their drop rate has significantly decreased, especially Purple Souls which have a chance to drop only when defeating commander-level monsters.
Zong Shen himself needs to figure out a way since he currently needs two to three [Complete Purple Souls].
Apart from the materials needed for constructing the [Giant Wolf's Nest], he also has a [Heroic Badge] on hand, which requires a Purple Soul to increase the talent of his subordinate and transform them into a hero.
Occasionally, souls are listed for sale in the [Market], but the quantity is small, and selling prices are not cheap.
