Chapter 642: The Three Speed Masters Gathered
The advantages established in the early stage played a huge role in the mid-term.
Relying on the Sky Boat and Modoruna wearing [God Boots] and [God Gloves], they opened up new land and expanded the territory, and cities sprang up one after another.
Under Qi Ge's planning, the square world with a total of more than 2,000 squares gradually formed an intricate pattern.
At the beginning, Qi Ge used the full encirclement method.
That is, every empty space left is surrounded by four city squares.
But soon, Qi Ge found that this approach was too inefficient.
Cities can be built and demolished.
With the help of the diagram of the seven pigeons, Schmidt demolished part of the city and turned it into the "retain eight method".
That is, each city group will surround eight spaces.
The generation speed of [Ghost Land] is constantly doubling.
After hundreds of rounds, the generation speed of [Ghost Land] has reached the upper limit, and 256 [Ghost Land] can be generated in each wave.
But these 256 [ghostly places] are all separated by cities, and there is no way to form a nine-grid chain.
The [Ghost Land] is surrounded by cities. The monsters will die the moment they are created, leaving behind large areas of wild squares.
By exploring, collecting and destroying these wild squares, Smith's resources and troops continue to increase.
Ten rounds, a hundred rounds, a thousand rounds passed.
The grid world is like an insatiable hole, constantly being drained of chaotic energy.
After two thousand rounds, the total strength of Smith's troops had reached a terrifying level. In order to accommodate the troops, she had to dismantle all other facilities in several cities and use them to build residences.
At this time, the frequency of the emergence of [Ghost Land] has obviously slowed down.
Originally, one round lasted ten rounds, but now it takes 15 rounds to complete one round.
After three thousand rounds, Smith had run out of resources to spend.
Even if she used all twenty cities to build warehouses, they were still unable to hold all the resources.
In order to consume resources, Smith started a large-scale training mode, ordering the troops to eat six times the amount of food every day, and using various training buildings to speed up training so that the troops could advance as quickly as possible.
At this time, the chaos fog that originally could fill the void in 3 rounds now requires six rounds to fill the void.
Four thousand rounds passed.
Smith has a total of 2.6 million mythical soldiers and more than a hundred heroes under his command.
The first demigod and the first type of soldier that was close to a pseudo-god were also born under Smith.
【Twilight Lord
Power: Castle
Level: 6
Rank: 8
Quality: Mythical
Speed: 75
HP: 364,000
Defense: 350
Attack: 400
Damage: 1200
Special skills: Giant soldiers, charge, attack to cause real damage.
Empire's Afterglow: Invincible when there are other human soldiers on the battlefield.
Once this stunt is released, it cannot be obtained again.
Twilight Blade: When the Empire's Twilight is lifted, revive all human soldiers on the battlefield and make them invincible while they are alive.
Unyielding Will: Immune to instant death, immune to control.
Light of the End: Every time a humanoid soldier dies completely, he will gain special skills in the following order:
1: Double-click, the enemy cannot counterattack.
2: Knock back 40 enemies when attacking.
3: You will only receive damage once per round.
4: Recover 50% of lost HP each round, minimum 300.
5: For enemies that you cannot cause damage to, there is a 30% chance of killing them all after attacking.
6: Every time you receive damage, take action immediately. 】
The birth of the 8th-level mythical soldiers was like a flag, boosting the morale of Smith's troops. However, despite their high morale, they could not find any opponents.
At this time, Chaos only has incoming air but no outgoing air.
Chaos seemed very reluctant to generate the [Ghostly Land], and his work efficiency was shockingly slow, just like a worker who was desperately slacking off.
After five thousand rounds, it took Chaos 100 rounds to generate a [Ghostly Land]!
Even Qi Ge couldn't stand it anymore and kept denouncing Hundun for not having the spirit of hard work at all.
At this time, Smith, who had abundant resources and sufficient troops, began to study the [Sky Boat] that could jump out of the grid under the advice of the heroes.
When the number of rounds reached six thousand, a qualitative change occurred.
The [Ghost Land] that was supposed to be born randomly did not continue to be born, and the chaotic fog that was supposed to fill the void did not appear.
Chaos was tired and completely drained.
The silkworm will not stop spinning silk until it dies, and the invincible ghost butterfly has also spat out the last bit of its blood.
The void travel function of the [Sky Ship] was finally successfully restored with the concerted efforts of countless heroes and arms.
Smit took her most elite troops and soared into the sky on the sky boat.
Under Qi Ge's horrified gaze, the Sky Boat broke through the clouds covering the grid world and crashed into the space where he was.
At this moment, the clouds and mist surrounding the Seven Pigeons suddenly dissipated.
In just a moment, Qi Ge and Smith lost consciousness at the same time.
But at the last second before the clouds dissipated, Qi Ge caught a glimpse of a scene that shocked him.
A butterfly as green as jade was held tightly in a white hand.
However, what the palm of the hand holds is just the shell of the butterfly.
The real butterfly had already broken free from its shell and was trying to escape into the void, with its body already halfway gone.
The butterfly's body is full of black tubes, which are connected to the void surrounding the grid world.
When Qi Ge and Smith fell unconscious, a dazzling white light shone through the gaps between the squares of the square world.
Another huge, shining hand stretched out from the void below the grid world and held the entire grid world in its hand.
The entire grid world collapsed rapidly and eventually turned into a small grid model.
The giant butterfly screamed, cut off its lower body which had not yet completely separated from the shell, and forcibly drilled into the void.
The huge palm squeezed hard, pinched the shell left by the butterfly together with its lower body, and formed it into a ball of light, which it stuffed into the shrinking grid world.
…
…
[System prompt: Congratulations to players Qi Ge and Hero Schmidt for their perfect strategy of Chaos Treasure House: Ghostly Land.]

Qi Ge woke up in a daze, shook his head, and approached, then was attracted by the sound of the system prompt.

One-time treasure: Myth gift certificate]
"Brother Qige!"
The battle was over, and in the reward space, Smith suddenly threw himself into Qi Ge's arms.
"Brother Qige, I miss you so much.
So what, have I been of any use?"
"Yes! It's so true!"
Qi Ge was inexplicably moved:
“Luckily I chose you.
Even if I were in this Chaos House, I wouldn't be able to do better than you."
“That’s great.”
Smith breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:
"Brother Qige, look, I've leveled up a lot and received a lot of rewards.
I have kept all the skill points and attribute points. When you have time, you can teach me how to add them.
By the way, Brother Qige, this is for you."
Smith stuffed a card emitting golden light into Qi Ge's hand and took the opportunity to move closer.
…
The settlement space ended, and Smith and Qi Ge were teleported back to the Yasa world.
Qi Ge touched her lips and smiled slightly.
He opened his backpack and checked his haul.
【Shinhwa Gift Certificate
One-time treasure
Give it to a Miracle-quality NPC to baptize it immediately and help it upgrade to Myth-quality.
Can be used on NPCs who have become heroes. 】
What is this? There is actually such a treasure!
Qi Ge was very surprised.
The mythical gift certificate is of great significance to both Ke Ruoke and Wei Chengfeng.
If Ke Ruoke's basic troops could transform from miracles into myths, his ascension from legend to demigod would be incredibly smooth.
Wei Chengfeng can go from a miracle to a myth, which will definitely be of great help to her.
“In addition to Ke Ruoke and Wei Chengfeng, there are many other heroes or arms that will need [Mythology Gift Certificates].
There are too many people and too little food, so it is difficult to distribute.
Put it away first and think about it carefully. "
Qi Ge put away the myth gift certificate and looked at another thing he was looking forward to.
[Rules: Grid Battlefield
Special Rules
After integration
Effect:
Make changes to the battle space.
After entering the battle space, you can change the hexagonal battlefield to a square battlefield.
In the square battlefield, heroes can participate in the battle from a bird's eye view, ignoring the distance limit and gaining a chance to make a normal attack each round. This opportunity does not occupy the number of times the hero can cast spells. 】
Checkered battlefield...
Qi Ge's pupils shrank.
Directly change the entire battle space, turning the hexagonal grid of the battle space into a square grid.
It may not seem to have much effect, but it actually has a huge impact on the battle.
Soldiers with special skills such as ring attack and range attack will become more powerful.
It will also become easier to form a blocking position that prevents the enemy from moving.
The change in the battlefield is only one aspect; the most crucial thing is the impact on the heroes.
[Heroes can participate in battles from a bird's eye view, ignoring distance restrictions and gaining a chance to perform a normal attack each round. This opportunity does not take up the hero's spellcasting times.]
This rule greatly increases the hero's influence on the battlefield.
As a special combat unit, heroes have always faced a dilemma.
If you don't choose a hero to appear, the hero's full strength cannot be exerted.
Choosing a hero to appear on the stage can certainly unleash powerful combat capabilities, but it can also become a breakthrough point on the battlefield.
Once the hero dies before the soldiers, the soldiers will fall into panic, their morale will drop sharply, and they will lose all the benefits brought by the hero.
But there is no such problem in the checkered battlefield.
The hero does not need to appear on the field to launch an attack once per round, which is very suitable for those powerful fighting heroes.
For example, Gru, Kenro Hag and so on.
“No, that’s not right.
In the entire Yasa world, the heroes most suitable for the square battlefield are not them.
But…”
A figure flashed through Qi Ge’s mind.
Name: Fafnir, Legendary Hero, Race: God and Monster, Specialty: Combat Skills.
He is one of the permanent members of the Bracada Grand Council, controls the entire Bracada Naga Legion, and is loyal to the Titans.
In terms of personal combat capability alone, he is undoubtedly the number one among all legendary heroes.
He is Lu Bu in the Yasa world.
“Everything in this world has a price.
Fafnir's loyalty will also be there."
Qi Ge's eyes focused and he put away the [Grid Battlefield].
[Chaos Treasure House·Ghostly Land] has been conquered, and peace has returned to the sea of sand.
Now the location of the [Ghost Land] has become a chaotic energy zone.
After a while, this energy area will be sorted out by the Yasa world.
Afterwards, Qi Ge found Kenluo Hag and submitted the task to him.
Kenro Hag followed the Seven Pigeons to the [Ghostly Land] and was surprised and happy to see the Chaos Treasure House that had been destroyed.
He patted Qi Ge's shoulder vigorously and praised happily:
“I knew you could do it, kid.
When the Conferred God Organization selects its leader, I will definitely vote for you.
I have seen clearly that Tanan has limited potential and is already old. You are the future of our Fengshen Organization.
Come on, this is for you."
[System prompt: Congratulations on completing the mission [Sand Sea Shock]. ]
[System prompt: Kenro Hag's favorability towards you increased by +20, currently 80 (highly appreciated)].
[System prompt: You have obtained the mission reward: Heart of War].
Heart of War
Level 5 Treasure
Equipment location: Necklace
Special Stunt: Used before the battle begins, it makes it impossible for both parties to escape or surrender in any way.
If the other side has a hero, the winner of the battle will be forced to obtain all the treasures of the other side's hero. (Once a week). 】.
"Heart of War?"
Qi Ge looked at the necklace in her hand and was a little surprised.
Kenro Hager smiled and said:
“Haha, Tanan has asked me for this treasure several times, but I never gave it to him.
In the legend of the Behemoths, as long as one synthesizes the combined treasure [Holy Flame of War], one can become the God of War of the Yasa Continent.
I don’t know if it’s true or not, you can try it.”
Qi Ge said in surprise:
"Does Tanan still have the components of the [Holy Flame of War]?"
Kenro Hager smiled and said, "Yes. Not only does he have it, but he has more than you do."
He already has five treasures in his hands: War Shackles, War Sword, War Boots, War Belt, and War Cloak.
Add your War Crown and my War Heart, and that makes 7 pieces."
"War shackles?!"
Qi Ge was very surprised: "I also have a war shackle on me, so is the [Holy Flame of War] not a unique combination treasure?"
“Not really.”
Kenro Hager says:
“The components of the Holy Flame of War are all very rare, but not unique. I know of several Hearts of War alone, but they are all in the hands of demigods.
As for your war crown, this is the first time I have seen it.
Ah, that may be because I am not well-informed. It doesn’t mean there must be only one crown.
If the legend of the Behemoths is true, there might be many gods of war in the world of Yasa.
Hahaha, having a God of War is a good thing.
What kind of God of War is he without an opponent?
At that time, there will be a battle among the gods, and whoever kills the most Chaos will ascend to heaven as the god."
Seven Pigeons: ...
Is this even possible?! Can even the God of War be so casual?
Seven Pigeons successfully completed two tasks, and Kenlo Hag kept his promise and rushed to the Chaos Border as soon as possible. He wrote a letter to Seven Pigeons and asked Seven Pigeons to take it to Trok.
After receiving the letter from Kenlo Hag, Trok immediately packed up his things, took his mother, and went to the Chosen City with the Seven Pigeons.
After settling Trok and his mother on the Undying Wood, the Seven Pigeons rushed to Stormwind City and found Ceri.
Seri was delighted when he heard about Qi Ge’s research plan on speed.
She immediately put down everything she was doing and prepared to follow the Seven Pigeons to go to Erathia to pick up Sir Mlak and visit her great-granddaughter Smith and her granddaughter Raffi.
While Seri was preparing, Qi Ge also met with Mixue Bingtang, Edni and Hola from the Church of Fortune.
The financial warfare team has achieved considerable victory in Bracada and has successfully infiltrated every aspect of Bracada.
But now, they also encountered problems.
In the conference room, Ernie frowned and asked Qi Ge:
“Qi Ge, our Chamber of Commerce has now begun a full-scale invasion of Bracada.
With the help of our Church of Wealth and Church of Poseidon, we have a huge amount of funds that can impact the entire Bracada market.
We are firmly committed to implementing your plan to centralize Bracada's wealth.
But now we have a question, that is, to what extent does wealth concentration have to be considered sufficiently concentrated?
To whom should we concentrate our wealth? Or, in other words, to which organizations?”
Upon hearing this question, Qige immediately understood that Elni and the others' actions had touched upon the lifeblood of Bracada.
He immediately took out a small notebook and said:
"I have thought about this a long time ago. Look."
Ernie picked up the book in confusion and read softly:
"Analysis of the various classes in Bracada?"
"right."
Qi Ge nodded vigorously and said:
“In our real world, a great sage once said that to achieve liberation, the most important thing is to figure out who our enemies are and who our friends are.
There are five classes in Bracada, from top to bottom.
The first class [the great aristocracy and the great capitalist class. ]
The Titans, core members of the Grand Council, and senior industrialists headed by Trosa and Pickjem.
These classes represent the vested interests of the highest echelons of Bracada.
Especially the Titans and the Industrial Faction, they always stand on the side of the True God Titan, and share the same fate with the True God Titan. They are targets that must be defeated.
Of course, my teacher and I also belong to this class, but we are the few awakened and self-revolutionaries in this class, and we are also the organizers of the entire Bracada liberation movement, which is a different matter.
Second Class [Small Nobility and Small Capitalist Class]
Apart from Thunder City, the mayors of the main cities, some of them are true legends, most of them are fake legends, and ordinary members of the Grand Council...
These people are dependent on the first class and attempt to become the vested interests of the first class.
They feel the pain of being oppressed by the first class, and will approve of our actions;
But when our actions affect them to become the [great nobility and the bourgeoisie], they will turn against us and help the first class to obstruct us.
Most of the time, they are our enemies.
But in the early stages of our action, they will become objects that we can exploit because of their short-sightedness and their strong desire to rise in their own status.
But remember, we can use them, but we must never treat them as our friends.
The third class: the middle class
The objects in this class are numerous and diverse.
Including high-level soldiers, ordinary heroes, small chambers of commerce, bosses of small factories and so on.
They are the backbone of the entire Bracada society, constantly squeezing the lower classes while seeking opportunities to become the second class.
If they want to realize their wishes, they must please the first class, strive to compete with the current second class, and serve the first class.
Most of them are being deprived by the second estate at the same time as they are depriving the fourth and fifth estates.
There is both intense hatred and envy for the second class.
Therefore, when our actions are going smoothly, they will enter a wait-and-see state and will only make a choice when the final winner emerges.
Once our actions fall into a disadvantage, their stance will most likely be consistent with that of the first class, and they will be the first to come out and cheer and add insult to injury.
They will be standard Bracada fence-sitters, wait-and-see people, and can switch between being our friends and our enemies at any time.
The fourth class: the working class
It includes five types: (1) most common soldiers, (2) poor mages, (3) small artisans of various races, (4) shop assistants, and (5) street vendors.
This is the largest class in Bracada, and their common feature is that they do not control any means of production.
If they want to survive, they must be employed by the first, second, and third classes and rely on selling their time, physical strength, and mental power in exchange for survival resources.
Becoming the third class is their dream.
But under the control of the first three classes, they already have to do their best to maintain their own survival, and there is almost no possibility of becoming the third class.
They will be our allies, the ones we need to unite with.
Our liberation of Bracada will give them the opportunity to transcend their own class and no longer live such a hard life.
The fifth class: slave class
That is, the goblins, ordinary human soldiers, and others living at the bottom of Bracada.
They are the objects of wanton exploitation and even part of the private wealth belonging to the first three classes.
They have no rights at all and their survival depends entirely on their master's mood.
They are our most steadfast allies and the most loyal to us after their minds have been liberated.
As long as we gain momentum, they who have nothing will immediately respond to us.
When there is hope of winning the struggle, they will risk their lives for victory.
But at the same time, their power is the weakest and most dispersed, and without a leader, it is difficult for them to exert their power. "
Qi Ge finally concluded:
“So what we have to do is to take the wealth of the third and fourth estates and concentrate it on the first and second estates.
Let more people from the third class slide into the fourth class, and let more people from the fourth class slide into the fifth class.
Make the rich richer and the poor poorer.
There are two benefits to doing this.
What sustains the existence of the first class is not wealth but force and power.
If the second class wants to rise to the first class, they must improve their military strength to fight for more rights.
If the wealth of the third and fourth classes is concentrated in the hands of the second class, the second class will develop greater ambitions and even dare to compete with the first class.
But rights are limited and indivisible.
The greater the power, and the more concentrated the power, the more unique it is.
There is only one Speaker of the House, but there are only so many seats for MPs and standing members. If you want to get one in, you have to pull down another one.
A large number of the second level will attack the first level, distract the first level's attention, and buy time for our actions.
Second, we will have more allies.
As I just analyzed, the greater the number of fifth tiers, the more forces we can mobilize when we take action.
The greater the number of the fourth tier, the fewer troops will be available to help the first tier when we act.
If a large number of master-level heroes and miracle soldiers were burdened with high debts and dropped to the fourth tier, turmoil would break out in Bracada even without our doing anything.
The social classes in Bracada were originally arranged according to force.
But if force cannot give those people the corresponding status, they will fight for it themselves."
Mixue Bingtang, Ernie, and Hola looked at Qi Ge's little notebook and the more they read, the more they felt it made sense.
They said to the seven pigeons joyfully:
“We understand how to make plans.
Don't worry, Qi Ge, we will soon make the nobles of Bracada hang themselves in the rope of death."
…
…
Three days later.
An armed airship from Bracada slowly stopped over the sky above the Holy City of Erathia.
The white-haired Seri took Qi Ge's hand and walked down from the airship step by step.
She looked around and saw many well-equipped soldiers checking the goods, documents and luggage of tourists and vendors one by one.
"oh?"
Seri put on a lens, looked carefully, and said in surprise :
“These spearmen in charge of inspection are all Tier 4 soldiers.
I haven't been here for more than ten years. Has Erathia become wealthy enough to use high-level soldiers as guards?"
Qi Ge smiled and said:
"It's only happened recently. Before that, Erathia was still very poor."
"Hmm? Is it because of the influence of that weapon?"
“Yes, the Blade of Resurrection.
This is its power, and the power of all of Erathia."
As Qi Ge said this, he showed the emblem representing the royal family of Erathia to the spearman who was about to stop him.
The spearmen immediately stood at attention, took off their hats to salute the Seven Pigeons, and respectfully stepped aside.
Then, a strong hero, accompanied by a group of tall swordsmen wearing golden armor, rushed in from the main entrance of the airship landing site.
When the swordsman saw Qi Ge, his body began to tremble with excitement.
He stood before the seven doves and shouted:
"I am Palu, the former captain of the Holy Army and the deputy hero of His Majesty Adela.
Meet His Majesty the Seven Doves and His Majesty the Seri.
I have come to greet you on the orders of Her Majesty the Queen.
Your Excellencies, please follow me.
General Mlak and Lord Smith are already waiting for you at Yunxia Square.
Her Majesty the Queen will be here soon.”
"This young man is in good spirits."
Seri looked at Palu with a smile and said to Qige:
"Luo Shi was like him back then, brilliant and vigorous.
This is the behavior of people with lofty ideals.
I fell in love with it at first sight.”
Qi Ge smiled and praised:
"Grandma, you have a good eye. Palu is an undercover agent of the Holy Heaven Church and a great guy who has made great contributions.
Now he is the commander of the Holy Swordsmen of our Holy Griffin Church, and his future is limitless."
"Yes! Thank you both for your compliments."
Palu looked at Qige excitedly, his eyes full of admiration.
Under the leadership of Palu, Qi Ge and Seri soon arrived at Yunxia Square.
"Grandma! I missed you so much."
Smith immediately jumped into Seri's arms, then stuck out his tongue playfully at Qige.
Seri smiled and patted Smit on the back, then said to Sir Mlak:
“You are still alive, which makes me, an old woman, very happy.
Fortunately, you didn't die at the hands of a villain like Ronis, otherwise, it would be such a pity."
Sir Mlak took off his hat and saluted to Ceri:
"Ambassador Serai, the harsh winter will eventually pass, and spring has arrived.
Now both I and Erathia have been reborn."
Seri smiled and said:
"That's good. You run fast, but disasters are always one step behind you."
…
After some greetings, Qi Ge quickly took Catherine, who had hurried over, and put forward his request.
Catherine had a terrible headache. She looked at Qi Ge angrily and said:
"Qi Ge, it's fine that you kidnapped Sylvia, but you also want to take Sir Mlak away?
Do you know how busy I am now?
The whole of Erathia was in a state of revival, and the documents piled up on my desk every day were as high as a mountain.
Have you ever thought about how much more material I have to process every day without Sir Mlak?"
Qi Ge said shamelessly:
"Your Majesty, you are capable of doing more.
If it really doesn't work, Your Majesty, can you ask Grand Duke Gru for help?
Look, I have already handed over the Blade of Renaissance to you. This small request is not too much, right? "
"You just took over Viaport City for free, didn't you?
Do you know how many times I have been impeached and questioned because of the division of Viagra?"
"I returned a Mlak collar to you."
Catherine was furious:
"That's called returning. Can you call that returning? Mlak Territory originally belonged to us, Erathia!"
Qi Ge smiled and said:
"How about this? I'll find you a hundred people who are proficient in government affairs, and you lend me the Lord. How about that?"
Catherine asked doubtfully:
"One hundred people who are proficient in government affairs? Where can you find them?"
"Haha, take from Erathia and give back to Erathia."
After Qi Ge made a phone call, Liu Xing quickly arranged the position for Qi Ge.
One hundred elite players organized from various guilds all gathered under Catherine's command.
Catherine tested them and was surprised to find that they performed better than she had imagined.
The city design map that one of the players brought out amazed Catherine.
In this regard, Qige said:
“Just kidding, all 100 of them are masters of running simulation games.
From village management to space colonization, what haven't they experienced?
It's easy for me to control a tiny Erathia like you. Don't underestimate the power of the players.
Brothers, give Catherine a little Fourth Scourge shock."
