The guy nad Audenell is also a Lord.
He is a Lord from the Bullfighting Country.
In Chen Rui's previous life, they were already close friends.
Audenell is an interesting person and a reliable partner.
This was validated in the previous life.
So, in this life, Chen Rui successfully beca good friends with him again.
Now, Audenell is in charge of managing the affairs inside the legion for him.
After the parrot left, Chen Rui did not leave the terrace.
He continued to hold Galrona, enjoying the rare peace and quiet.
Just waiting for Frosty Winter to pass, nurturing the warmth of spring to bloom.
...
South of the Kujite Empire is the Sarand Sultanate.
And to the north, where the hills extend.
Lies the territory of the Rodok Kingdom.
The Rodok Kingdom has the most formidable Human Race archers on the continent.
Their Giant Cities and Bang Cities partly stand among the mountains.
The terrain is very rugged, with fortresses and walls built following the topography.
All are mountain fortresses that are easy to defend and hard to attack.
Continuing north and east, there are plains, basins, and grasslands.
But ultimately, the foundation of the Rodok Kingdom lies in the mountains.
The two Imperial Cities within the Kingdom are located among the sprawling mountains.
This vast mountain and hill area is known as the "Eternal Realm Mountain Range."
It's a super hill region truly spanning two kingdoms.
Besides Humans, there are many adventurous places and mystical lands.
Inhabited by many ancient groups and creatures.
It's a haven for explorers and mountain hunters.
Various woodland produce is also one of the specialty products of the Rodok Kingdom.
Even the current hidden dwelling place of the Dark Night Elf Race is in the "Eternal Realm Mountain Range."
Just within the territory of the Kujite Empire.
In a place known as the Silver Moon Forest.
From this, one can infer the general condition of the entire western continent.
anwhile, in the Rodok Kingdom, more than two thousand kiloters west of Beluda Giant City, among the mountains.
On an open hillside, there's a typical hilly territory.
Fifty to sixty farrs and seventy to eighty warriors are busy working in the territory.
Everyone is wearing quilts, exhaling murky white breaths.
Due to the terrain and forest barrier, cold winds cannot penetrate deeply here.
This allows the mountain's temperature to remain at seven or eight degrees above zero.
This is Zongze's territory.
After receiving a notice from his elder brother, he stocked up on cold-resistant materials.
To do this, he virtually visited every village in the area.
Now his resources are just as abundant.
anwhile, he has not been idle these two or three days.
The territory's population and warriors have both shown marked growth.
Having rged with the[Arcane Heart], inheriting the Arcane Spirit's legacy.
An advanced Arcane Affinity talent allowed him to smoothly acquire the power of the Arcane Spirit.
This inherited power lies dormant in his[Arcane Heart].
Transforming into Zongze's potential for future growth.
His power is growing rapidly at every mont.
Currently, his Arcane Spellcasting Ability is equivalent to that of a Tier four Interdiate Arcane Mage.
The Wisdom Attribute has even reached a terrifying 68 points.
Through the Arcane Spirit's legacy, he has mastered over ten types of Arcane Magic.
Including Defense System, Curse Magic System, Divination System, Enchantnt System, Molding Magic, and Elental System.
And with other types of Arcane Magic, Zongze has no worries.
With the increase of his Wisdom Attribute and Spiritual Power, he will naturally grasp the various Arcane Magic imprinted in the legacy.
As for how to enhance Wisdom Attribute and Spiritual Power.
Zongze has his own thods.
He just needs to engage in deep ditation, sensing the power of Arcane Magic.
To gradually increase his Wisdom Attribute.
Though Lucky Dog cannot compare to such a blatant cheat code.
It clearly holds a significant advantage over ordinary Lords.
Due to inheriting the Arcane Spirit.
Zongze's body has undergone obvious transformation and influence.
All his hair has turned silver-white.
Patterns of intricate and mysterious arcane magic runes, in light purple, trace his arms.
And these traces are slowly spreading across his body with his advancing power.
His constitution and talent now make any mage practicing in the Arcane Magic System envious and jealous.
At this ti, the farrs in the territory are busy with extensive construction activities.
Houses and buildings with distinct Orc styles are sprouting up.
Those are special buildings of the Orcs.
anwhile, the warriors are hunting in the nearby mountains and forests.
They haven't gone far, only spread around the area.
There are plenty of prey in the forests.
The wild beasts are also part of the territory's diet.
And so ferocious Magical Beasts as well.
In the Frosty Winter Challenge, the mountains have so advantages.
The rugged terrain and relatively dense forests will weaken the power of the north wind.
Therefore, after the challenge officially begins, they will receive varied compensation packs depending on the area.
Areas with higher challenge difficulty will receive more corresponding compensation.
Zongze is currently sitting cross-legged on a platform of a Sentry Tower within the territory.
His Lord's Courtyard is only level 2.
Not comparable to Chen Rui and Zong Shen.
But Zongze likes high places, making the Sentry Tower his only choice.
From the over ten-ter-high tower, he can see the whole territory at a glance.
This feeling provides him with a strong sense of control and security.
Behind him, two Cat-eared Girls kneel and massage his back.
A petite and charming Water Mage Girl leans on his chest.
The loose collar of her water-blue Magic Robe reveals large gaps.
Exposing much of her round, fair bust.
The Sentry Tower lets him intimately contact the cold wind.
Amidst the howling wind, the Mage Girl's long hair flutters in the breeze.
Constantly brushing Zongze's face.
Appearing languid, alluring, and peaceful.
Zongze is also in a calm state now.
Just like Zong Shen and Chen Rui.
Finding peace amidst busyness, reflecting on the future.
Thanks to their separation into three locations and different power tiers.
At this mont, they share a similar mindset.
Unlike those ordinary Lords, still vexed by the basics of survival.
They have embarked on another phase of Lordship.
Striving for higher and stronger goals.
According to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs theory.
Human needs are divided into five tiers.
Ranging from the lowest to the highest: physiological needs, safety needs, social needs, esteem needs, and self-actualization needs.
Most Lords struggle within the first and second need stages.
While soone like Zongze has stepped into the third and fourth stages.
As for Zong Shen and Chen Rui, they've crossed into the fifth tier.
They're striving to et self-actualization needs.
Continuing to progress toward their inner goals.
...
The Frosty Winter Challenge acts like an alternative pause button for the Lords.
It's both a challenge and a precious breathing space.
Furthermore, due to the existence of challenge points and events.
During the challenge period, even if all resource gathering and relic exploration activities cease.
As long as everyone survives, the territory's progress can be maintained.
The overcast clouds in the sky appear ominous and threatening.
Heavy like a dirty gray wad of cotton.
Whether it's the ice field in the north of the continent, southern valleys, western mountains, central plains, southern basins, or grasslands.
Even on islands scattered across the endless sea.
Wherever there are Lords, the sky remains cloud-laden.
Fortunately, so far, the challenge doesn't affect non-Lord creatures.
Otherwise, this climate anomaly capable of covering the entire continent would surely alarm countless creatures.
In Zong Shen's territory, everyone has been positioned properly.
In the central district, only Zong Shen and Luna are present.
During this, Zong Shen hasn't been idle.
He took the [Craftsman's Hamr (Green)] himself to hamr away and build the[Market] back in place!
