Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong
Chapter 1277 - Chapter 1277 Chapter 763 The Princesss Gift_2

Chapter 1277: Chapter 763: The Princess’s Gift_2 Chapter 1277: Chapter 763: The Princess’s Gift_2 As she spoke, Princess Cold Flame seemed to realize that her words were somewhat ambiguous, and she lowered her head again, falling into silence.

Ariel Watson’s thoughts were racing at this moment.

She didn’t know when it started, but her admiration for the man in front of her had turned into an inexplicable sense of excitement.

She had never experienced this strange feeling before.

But she was sure that, for the realization of the Lord’s ideals, she would not hesitate even if it meant shattering her body!

Just then, a pair of solid and warm palms were placed on Ariel Watson’s shoulders.

At this moment, silence spoke louder than words.

Thus, two lives that should have never intersected or even belonged to the same world were closely connected due to an incredible collective crossing, ultimately sparking the flame of life.

The cold night wind blew in, bringing the desolation of autumn outside the window, while the warmth of spring filled the room.

…

The next morning, when Leo Ray opened his eyes, Ariel Watson had already left for some time.

“It’s time to change all this,” Leo Ray said as he lifted the blankets and looked at the neatly folded new sweater on the bedside table. He took a deep breath of the slightly turbid air, which seemed to have a similar scent to the battlefield.

After deepening his understanding of Ariel Watson, the pressure that Leo Ray had been accumulating all this time was greatly relieved, and his body felt much lighter.

However, before this, it wasn’t that Leo Ray didn’t want to do so, but he clearly understood the dangers of indulgence in this world full of crises.

After all, the weight on his shoulders no longer belonged to him alone.

As these thoughts crossed his mind, Leo Ray began his routine cultivation.

After some time, a refreshed and neatly dressed Leo Ray walked out of the Lord’s Suite.

“Yesterday’s Tier 5 Equipment and Storage Rings have been distributed, but other newly acquired magic medicines, magical scrolls, and other items have not been distributed yet, including subordinates in the territory, subordinates in other places, and other non-subordinate elite forces.”

“As for the distribution of the Lord’s subordinates, I can easily do it in minutes by combining the Territorial Overview Interface, and leave the non-subordinate forces in various places to the old steward Warren Dexter who is in charge of logistics. All he needs to do is to get me the list.”

“Since subordinates cannot directly communicate with each other through mind talk, I have asked Jasper Richardson about communication using her teleportation network which has the same function as communication networks. All that’s needed is the use of special communication codes.”

“As long as Jasper Richardson teaches the Mage Squad members, and then dispatches the mages to various places, the communication network can be built naturally, and communication between subordinates in various places will be as convenient as mind talk.”

“As the number of cities under my command increases, there are many things that I cannot deal with personally, so I just need to arrange and prepare in advance, and leave it to the corresponding subordinates to complete.”

Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully and entered his Lord’s Office.

Just as he stepped through the office door, a bright idea lit up in Leo Ray’s black eyes, as if he remembered something.

“That’s right! When I upgraded my equipment yesterday, I gained a total of over 10,000 Tier 3 equipment with fine steel ingots and more than 200 Tier 4 equipment.”

“Currently, my stock of fine steel ingots is 5,600 units, and the next Mansion upgrade requires 10,000 units, which is the only resource I am lacking.”

“In other words, even if each piece of equipment can only be decomposed into 1 unit of a fine steel ingot, I can still upgrade the Lord’s Mansion by one more level! This has been long overdue!”

Leo Ray’s joy was evident on his face.

The long-awaited Mansion upgrade would mean that his overall strength would be elevated to a new level!

This was undoubtedly a timely help amid the current volatile situation.

“At this stage, the position of the Territory has been completely exposed, and with more elite soldiers guarding the Territory, I can be more at ease to go out and deal with affairs and exploration.”Arriving at the storage wooden box, Leo Ray began dismantling immediately.

In the end, he easily obtained 12,000 units of adamantine ingots.

“The required resources have been gathered, and my mansion can finally be upgraded!”

Leo Ray excitedly rubbed his hands together and contacted the other lords like Solomon and Sylvia, explaining the reverse engineering process once more.

As for obtaining the recruitment order, it naturally had to wait until the mansion was upgraded, according to past experience.

Afterwards, Leo Ray easily carried the storage wooden box and strode out of the office, following the spiral staircase down to the mansion’s first floor hall.

This time, the resources required for the mansion upgrade amounted to 1 million units of stone, 200,000 units of wood, 200,000 units of thatch, 30,000 units of iron ingots, 30,000 units of copper ingots, and 10,000 units of fine steel ingots.

The most convenient method was to first move the storage wooden box outside and then take out the massive resources needed.

“Greetings, Lord!”

Old Steward Warren Dexter and the maids who had been waiting bowed respectfully when they saw Leo Ray’s figure approaching.

Immediately, two maids stepped forward and respectfully took the storage wooden box that Leo Ray carried on his shoulder.

“No need for formal courtesies, just move the box not too far from the mansion’s gate.”

After hearing Warren’s report, Leo Ray nodded and said, “Warren, inform everyone else still in the mansion to leave; I’m about to start upgrading it further.”

“At your command, Lord!”

The old steward bowed and excitedly hurried off to carry out the task.

Meanwhile, Leo Ray walked out of the Lord’s Mansion with the maids surrounding him.

As he waited, Leo Ray leaned against an Earth Guardian’s bulky body and thoughtfully nodded.

Upon completing the mansion upgrade, it would mean that he would have an additional 2,000 population capacity. In view of the already saturated territory, he would have to immediately expand outwards.

“According to the city construction plan I devised, the current territory will serve as the inner city, with a total of three layers radiating outward.”

“Around the inner city, the first layer will be a defensive belt composed of military camps, followed by buildings directly under the lord’s administration, such as city management, alchemist research institutes, and other functional buildings. The outermost area will be the residential and commercial districts for ordinary residents and established soldiers, followed by the territory’s outer walls.”

“As for the specific urban planning map, I’ve already entrusted Old Steward Warren Dexter with the responsibility of drafting it. Before the actual planning map is released, I’ll proceed with my predetermined plans to establish a circle of military camps around the city walls, especially since the surrounding forests have already been leveled in the territory defense battle.”

As Leo Ray contemplated this, he noticed the main subordinates living in the mansion had quickly walked out, including Ariel Watson.

He saw that the ears of Princess Cold Flame were red, and her eyes were glittering, obviously still recalling the recent intimate discussions.

“Perhaps it’s time to consider moving this girl’s residence up another floor.”

Leo Ray raised his eyebrows with a faint smile on his lips.

Before long, after the mansion was emptied, Leo Ray hurriedly opened the mansion’s attribute interface and clicked the upgrade button at the bottom.

A familiar and pleasing prompt sounded in Leo Ray’s ears.

[You have consumed Stone x1,000,000, Wood x200,000, Thatch x200,000, Iron Ingot x30,000, Copper Ingot x30,000, and Fine Steel Ingot x10,000]}

[The Lord’s Mansion Lv8 is upgrading, please wait…]

Looking up at the suddenly upgraded giant light screen in front of him, Leo Ray gazed expectantly at it with a look of anticipation.

Surrounding subordinates couldn’t help exclaiming in admiration. No matter how many times they had seen it, the miracle-like scene still left them feeling excited and invigorated.

Without a doubt, this signified that a surge of new power was about to appear before everyone, summoned by their Lord!
