He spoke hurriedly.
"Right, Lord Zong, the supplies allocated to the legion mbers have all been delivered."
"In total, we obtained 8,680 pieces of wood and 2,672 Mainland Continent Universal Dinar."
"I'll transfer this batch to you via the [Market]."
Jiang Yi said honestly, having no ulterior motives in this regard.
Especially with sothing so open and transparent.
She couldn't possibly keep all the legion mbers' mouths shut.
"Hmm..."
"Let's hold onto this batch of supplies for now."
"I might only have ti to receive them by tomorrow night or the day after."
"Keep 3,000 pieces of wood and 1,000 Dinar."
"The rest you can give to ."
Zong Shen said casually, as this amount was essentially a public reward and gift.
With a reserve of over a hundred thousand wood and more than 1.6 million Dinar at his disposal,
such resources were just a drop in the bucket.
Moreover, after all the cold-resistant clothing in the market is sold,
the resource reserve level within the territory could rise another notch.
So for him, 3,000 pieces of wood and 1,000 Dinar didn't an much.
But for Jiang Yi, these resources were entirely different.
They were absolutely a huge fortune!
This contrast is like the difference between 1,000 yuan in the eyes of a millionaire and 1,000 yuan to a girl doing part-ti work on the street.
The money remains the sa, the resources remain the sa.
But the significance of these things differs vastly for different people.
The two chatted casually for a while.
Amid Jiang Yi's words of thanks, Zong Shen hung up the Communication Crystal.
He let out a gentle sigh.
"Whew."
"The world is driven by just a few bits of silver."
"Busy working, yet just bustling about."
"Both pitiful and admirable."
Zong Shen reflected thoughtfully.
He didn't look down on Jiang Yi.
In truth, there was almost no difference between him and Jiang Yi.
It's just that what they yearned for and their levels were different.
The essence was the sa.
Ultimately, it was for the sa goal.
To live, live well, and live comfortably.
Regarding what monsters were in the swampy area,
Zong Shen had already speculated in his heart.
He always knew that there was a greedy handso guy near the territory.
That guy had appeared multiple tis in tasks related to territorial expansion.
With warnings provided by the strategy hints.
Therefore, Zong Shen had thought about its location several tis.
Based on the territorial expansion task's range,
the greedy handso guy most likely lived within the 40 to 70 kiloters mark from the territory.
The exact direction is unknown, but it's either the south or the north.
Only these two directions are the most likely.
Because the territory's east and west are broad empty grasslands and human villages.
While the north holds the Burial Ground and vast forests, the south, aside from Dinan Village, is the swamp area.
Previously, there was insufficient information on the greedy handso guy, but now it's possible to openly inquire through the strategy guide.
"Is there any monster in the swamp south of Dinan Village?"
Taking action imdiately, Zong Shen keyed in the swamp as a factor, and began querying the Guide Module in his heart.
(In that swamp area lies the greedy handso guy you have longed for, a young Black Dragon, 132 years old and just recently coming of age.
Its strength has reached the Overlord Level, and as a pure-blooded giant dragon, its actual combat power surpasses other races' Overlord Level creatures.
Furthermore, it is served by a group of no more than 600 Dragon Vein Dogn, and has tad a large number of fierce Mire Crocodiles among the Lizard People.
These Dogn are different from the ones you tad in the mine.
Their Dragon Descendants bloodline is more pronounced.
Their overall strength is also more formidable.
While those in the mine are just ordinary Dogn, becoming weaker due to high reproductive rate and degradation rate.
For now, your strength is insufficient to conquer it.
Even if you undergo a Demon Transformation and manage to fight it on even terms,
its followers would leverage their numbers to inflict severe casualties on your warriors.
Being a Black Dragon among the Five-Colored Dragons, they revere destruction and hold grudges, and once you anger it, you shall endure endless revenge from the greedy handso guy.)
Reading the glittering golden subtitles before him, Zong Shen's face revealed a look of expectation fulfilled.
The swamp area was indeed the lair of the greedy handso guy.
This is likely the second "good neighbor" area near Zong Shen's vicinity.
This greedy handso guy reached adulthood only in the past twenty years.
Its power has yet to reach the pinnacle of a giant dragon.
This age is akin to a young sixteen or seventeen-year-old human lad who has just begun its ventures.
Giant dragons are famously long-lived, with their strength often correlating deeply with age.
The older the dragon, the stronger its power.
Extrely Ancient Dragons, Ancient Dragons, and Ancient Dragons take the Epic Level as the starting point of their power.
Most of which have already reached Legendary status.
Additionally, it's crucial to note that pure-blooded giant dragons are born war machines by nature.
Their formidable combat power and overwhelming physicality make them infamously fearso top-level creatures.
Besides, among giant dragons, there are various beliefs and factions.
Including the Evil Five-Colored Dragon Faction, led by Tiamat of the five-headed dragons.
Tiamat is the embodint of conspiracy and darkness, and the mutual mother goddess of all Five-Colored Dragons, known as "Gluttony."
Their order in terms of strength and size is as follows:
Red, Blue, Green, Black, and White. These Five-Colored Dragons are malevolent creatures belonging to the Evil Chaos faction.
On the other hand, the tal Dragon faction worships Bahamut.
Including those such as Golden Dragon, Silver Dragon, Brass Dragon in the faction.
These carry a flamboyant string of titles-- "Guardian Angels of the Seven Heavens," "God of the Giant Dragon," "King of the Good Dragons," "Creator of Justice," "Master of the North Wind," "Platinum Giant Dragon."
This perfunctory litany of titles suffices to show the stance of the tal Dragons.
In contrast to the Evil Five-Colored Dragons, tal Dragons are legitimately Lawful Good creatures.
Above these two factions stands the Supre Dragon God.
Also the true Giant Dragon Ancestor, known as "Nine-faced Dragon God," "Creator of All Dragons," "Eternal Giant Wheel," Ayo.
Also worshiped or revered as the "Dragon God" by the Avalon Kingdom or the Dragon Transformation Church in their speech.
Going further, there are rarer dragon types such as Calamity Dragons and Gem Dragons.
Then there are various dragon beasts and Dragon Descendants, too nurous to count.
However, creatures like "Frost Giant Dragon," "Undead Bone Dragon," and "Dragon Witch Demon" are top-tier Undead Race creatures rather than giant dragons.
These are basic common knowledge about the giant dragons in this world.
Giant dragons have a very low reproduction rate, so their rate of degradation is relatively low as well.
Occasionally, a dragon can activate its Ancestor Bloodline and show ancestral traits.
Ancestral Giant Dragons are even more powerful.
All this information was compiled by Zong Shen himself.
Ever since he obtained the Dragon Taming Rein (Golden),
he has known that taming a dragon in the Human Kingdom would undoubtedly cause a sensation.
Such a feat would shine even brighter than any "Dragon Slayer" title.
However, it could also invite envy from the Five-Colored Dragons.
Zong Shen wasn't particularly worried about this issue.
The Five-Colored Dragons are inherently evil, lazy, and greedy, and once you show the might to intimidate them,
no dragon would have the audacity to trouble him!
