Lord of the Myriad Worlds

Chapter 580: Nine Inheritances

At this time, Li Wei picked up the second Contract Document and gazed at it. He quickly discovered a crude wooden Treasure Chest, as well as some information.

Specifically speaking, this Territory had already gone bankrupt fifty years ago, and in the end, he could only obtain an Inheritance of 53 Standard Gold Coins...

Hmm, not surprising.

Li Wei remained Unruffled in his heart and continued to take out the third Contract Document. Unsurprisingly, it was also bankrupt. There was even a debt that instantly deducted 3,500 Standard Gold Coins from him. This worked too?

It didn't matter. The fourth one. Eh, luck had arrived. This was a Territory that hadn't gone bankrupt yet, but was on the verge of bankruptcy. In fact, there were only the last three months left before bankruptcy.

This Territory similarly owed a massive amount of debt, taxes, and so on. It had already entered the bankruptcy phase.

Li Wei quickly paid a full 500,000 Standard Gold Coins in debts and taxes, saving this Territory. Good, good, his family's foundation was quite substantial. Over the past years, with the strong sponsorship of the Neanderthals, Samsara Travelers, Contractors, and even Mountain Eagle Parker, the wealth in his private treasury had already surpassed 30,000,000 Standard Gold Coins.

And this was merely Standard Gold Coins.

When the debts were fully repaid, this Territory's bankruptcy procedure automatically ended. Next, he only needed to wait for the half-year supply period to arrive to migrate the personnel of this Territory over.

Hmm, not very strong. It couldn't compare with Ah Qing's Territory.Because this Territory only had a population of less than fifty thousand, and only about a thousand Soldiers. Advisors? None, not a single one. The one with the highest strength was only a Four-Star Class-holder. Moreover, this fellow was very pessimistic; compared to He Yibo, he didn't even have one percent of his vigor.

Therefore, the fifty thousand population of this Territory could only be used to serve as bottom-tier Commoners.

Of course, population itself was also a type of war potential.

Next, Li Wei continued to the fourth Contract Document. As a result, it was already bankrupt.

The fifth one, still bankrupt.

The sixth one, on the verge of bankruptcy. Debts of 720,000 Standard Gold Coins, a population of sixty thousand, no outstanding Advisors. He estimated that any capable Advisors had all been taken along on the mission, and were then very unfortunately caught in one fell swoop during the mission. Sigh, quite unlucky too.

After working so hard To Develop for so long, they ended up falling into a cesspit in one morning. No wonder when they had the chance to return to their Homeworld, they all made the choice without hesitation.

No one wanted to experience this despairing process again.

The seventh one, bankrupt.

The eighth one, on the verge of bankruptcy. Debts of one million, population of one hundred thousand. Similarly very ordinary.

The ninth one, on the verge of bankruptcy. Debts of 1.2 million, population of one hundred thousand. Still very ordinary. The one with the highest strength was only a Five-Star Professional; a small fry who hadn't even achieved All-Attribute Level 3 Awakening.

Not a single Inheritance was as outstanding as Ah Qing's Territory.

However, this was 310,000 bottom-tier Commoners. If he migrated all of them over, the Total Population of Li Wei's Territory would be able to break through to 520,000.

The Ascension Continent was abundant in Mana and rich in produce. Although natural disasters occurred frequently, as long as that was handled, the growth potential of ordinary Commoners was also quite considerable.

For example, the two hundred thousand Commoners who had previously migrated from Ah Qing's Territory had basically all achieved All-Attribute Level One Awakening and become dual Two-Star Class Holders in a short span of eight years.

What they lacked was merely a Bronze Quality Clearance Token.

Of course, temporarily there was no need for the whole population to become Class Holders. This was a threshold, a threshold to control and manage the bottom-tier Commoners. Continuously selecting from among them, choosing the most outstanding batch to join the legions and establish academies, gradually getting on the right track, and forming a social structure similar to Weir Province and Weir City in the future—this was Li Wei's goal.

This was also his current upper limit.

Either be a Flame Duke, or an Imperial Myriarch.

It was impossible to take it a step further.

Over the next few days, it was still pouring rain, with flooding and constant dangerous situations.

Even Kahndorf Fortress was fiercely besieged by the Neanderthals' Giant Crocodile Legion. Alowell urgently requested reinforcements. Li Wei didn't dare to neglect it; he rode Adai leading the way high in the sky. On the ground, Jocelyn and Victor led eight hundred of the Blazing Legion, carrying the Royal Guard to urgently provide assistance.

As for the Ice Legion and Ranger Legion, they stayed behind to guard the main base.

And on the way to reinforce, Li Wei and the others were ambushed by the Neanderthals' Giant Crocodile Cavalry. A full several hundred Giant Crocodiles wanted to Stir Up Trouble by taking advantage of the surging Ness River waters.

As a result, they were completely annihilated by the Blazing Legion with three consecutive rounds of Legion Skills.

What the hell was this!

Nowadays, these eight hundred Veterans of the Blazing Legion averaged a Rank 3 Dark Moon prefix. Their combat power was at least a large margin stronger than it was over ten days ago. Let alone the Blazing War Standard having Upgraded to six stars, capable of storing a total of eighteen Legion Skills on it. If you're not convinced, then come fight!

They smoothly arrived at Kahndorf Fortress in a dozen or so minutes. However, before the Blazing Legion could smash their Legion Skill Ultimate Moves onto them, the besieging Neanderthal Giant Crocodile Legion proactively retreated.

There was no other way; they truly couldn't gain an advantage.

With the terrain of Kahndorf Fortress and Liwei Keep in a Mutual Support Formation, there was only a distance of sixty li separating the two sides. Especially since they had also built a spacious Passage on the mountaintops that was completely unaffected by the floodwaters. The Neanderthals weren't stupid; they didn't want to throw away their lives in vain.

"Li Wei, many thanks. Without you, I'm afraid this place of mine would have been captured this time. But we cannot let our guard down, because those attacking us were all second and third-line Neanderthal legions. Their true main force is not here."

Alowell personally came out of the city to welcome him and sincerely expressed his thanks. Li Wei carefully sized him up, but didn't see any clues from Alowell's body. None at all.

Of course, Li Wei was also embarrassed to Activate Anti-Magic Perception in front of Alowell.

After all, Alowell himself was also a Tier 4 Legend, a Light Knight. His normal Delusion Breaking was similarly 30 points.

In short, in all aspects, he wouldn't fall too far behind when facing Li Wei.

"I want to know what the situation is on Lord Karl's side?"

"I don't know either. Karl has cut off contact with us. Falcon Capital should have already been besieged by the Neanderthals' Main Legion. Right now, the accumulated water in the Gumodo Basin is already sixty meters deep. The flooding of Falcon Capital is a foregone conclusion. Sigh! Now we can only try our best to hold the Locke Pass and hold the Locke Mountains. This way, when Karl breaks out of the siege in the future, we can also provide him with a place to Make a Comeback."

Alowell had a worried look on his face.

Li Wei didn't take up the conversation. He said a few more sentences, then declined Alowell's request to stay and led his troops back.

Over the next few days, this kind of situation occurred a few more times, but didn't stir up any waves.

And on Falcon Capital's side, there was still no news. Li Wei attempted to contact them using the Faction Channel, but all messages were like a stone dropped into the sea.

Without a doubt, a Heaven-Veiling Card had also been deployed over there.

Time passed like this for another two days. Suddenly, a segment of a Global Proclamation abruptly surfaced.

[Global Proclamation]

[The Maclay Legion's fifty thousand-strong army was tightly surrounded by the Neanderthals' hundred thousand-strong army on the Ennor Highlands. The two sides fought fiercely for fifteen days. In the end, without reinforcements, the Maclay Legion suffered Total Annihilation. The Neanderthals successfully occupied the Ennor Highlands!]

[Tyrant William still chose to hold his troops and not move. At this time, the Neanderthals had already mobilized all their forces. With the help of the great flood, they began to Go All Out to besiege Falcon Capital, which was still bitterly holding on, as well as Kahndorf Fortress. Their intention is very obvious: to take the Locke Mountains, surround Dindal Snow Mountain, and capture and kill Tyrant William. They seem to already be invincible.]

——

"Good Heavens, Duke Will is still enduring? Tyrant William actually didn't make a move either? Just letting them, just sitting and watching the Maclay Legion's fifty thousand-strong army be destroyed in Utter Annihilation? What kind of schemes are these few playing?"

Li Wei really couldn't understand.

However, the good news was that with the help of that fallen kingdom's princess, although Hathaway was a bit more irritable, her magical attainments and understanding had progressed rapidly. Now she had successfully Upgraded that Tier-2 Flame Mage Tower into a Level 3 Ice and Fire Mage Tower.

She was currently going all out to Upgrade Tucker's Tier-2 Mage Tower.

Within ten days, the Upgrade would definitely succeed.

And in fact, Tucker and Chekhov, these two Rank 3 Casters, were also at Hathaway Fortress right now going all out to Upgrade the two Tier-1 Mage Towers over there. They were also about to Upgrade to level two.

When the time came, the two Level 3 Mage Towers and the two Tier-2 Mage Towers would all be linked in parallel to form an array. Even if a Fifth-Circle Mage came to attack, they would still be able to fight to a Six of One, Half a Dozen of the Other result.
