2,290 Soldiers! Entering the Time Ruins Again!
Zhou Zhou’s eyes were filled with surprise.
Generally speaking, the loyalty of the subjects was an attribute that could only be slowly increased by a Lord who was slowly managing the territory well.
When the loyalty of the subjects were high, the territory would be peaceful, and the crime rate of the subjects would also greatly decrease. Moreover, subjects who listened to the orders of the Lord could also play a role in assisting the development of the territory.
It could even greatly increase the probability of triggering missions or even hidden missions!
Once the loyalty of the subjects was low, then all kinds of bad things might happen.
The disobedience of their subjects alone could cause many industries in the territory to stagnate.
The soldiers would not listen to the Lord’s orders to attack the monsters around the territory.
It was a serious matter.
The subjects might rebel and choose to overthrow or even murder the Lords.
Zhou Zhou had heard of such things while diving in the World Channel.
Some of the Lords became lustful towards the women in his territory and wanted to force themselves on these women.
In the end, this matter spread. The loyalty of the subjects who heard about this greatly decreased. The next day, this Lord’s friend realized that the name in his friend list had already dimmed.
Given no food crisis, the Lords would basically not die with the protection of the novice lord’s barrier.
If they died, it was because of only one possibility— The Lord was killed by his or her subjects in the territory.
This was the consequence of a decrease in loyalty.
However, this Peace And Prosperity Lord Talent could actually quickly increase his subjects’ loyalty.
Moreover, it could be increased to 90 points at most!
loyalty points was already quite high.
This loyalty was already equivalent to a pseudo dead loyal subject.
Such a subject would basically not betray the Lord unless he encountered an extraordinary matter.
Comparatively, the slightly higher probability of foreign life forms coming to seek refuge, was less eye-catching.
However, Zhou Zhou considered the matter.
“I now have nearly 2,000 subjects in my territory and most of their loyalty is between 70 and 80 points.”
“That means I should be able to make my territory a livable territory in the eyes of outsiders in no more than 40 days.” Zhou Zhou thought.
It was a little more than a month, which was neither long nor short.
He was not in a hurry and could afford to wait.
After that, Zhou Zhou stood up and prepared to recruit the elemental archers and the 13 elven elemental archers.
At the same time…
The soldiers and subjects in Blazing Sun City suddenly felt that Blazing Sun City had a bright future just as Zhou Zhou had just obtained the Diamond-Tier Lord Talent,
Even though Blazing Sun City was only newly built and looked relatively simple, at that point their eyes were filled with expectations for the future.
“Our Blazing Sun City has so many soldiers, and the number of soldiers is increasing at a visible speed every day. I feel at ease living here with these soldiers around.”
“His Lordship is also very good to us. He gives out high-level ingredients like monster meat for free and lets us eat our fill every day. I’ve never been so extravagant in the Aurora Kingdom.”
“Of course! His Lordship is the best Lord on the High Continent!”
“Even though this place is still very simple and is a desert territory, it will definitely be the richest and most famous territory in the entire High Continent in the future!”
“Even a dragon is willing to be the pet of our Lord. What’s impossible?”
“I even saw Wood Elves today. They are the subjects of the Elven Empire, but even they are respectful to the Lord.”
“The Wood Elves are so beautiful. I can definitely marry a Wood Elf in the future!”
…
The subjects discussed animatedly, their faces were filled with smiles.
Zhou Zhou walked out of the Lord’s courtyard when he saw this scene.
He froze for a bit before he reacted.
That was the effect of Peace And Prosperity.
Zhou Zhou looked at their smiles and felt a smile appear on his own face.
Perhaps the effects of this Diamond-Tier Lord Talent could not be seen in the short term, but it would definitely have a profound impact on the subjects and territory in the long run.
He stopped thinking about it.
Zhou Zhou came to the Gate of Summoning and threw the 394 Elemental Archer Recruitment Books into it.
Soon, the first Elemental Archer walked out.
He was wearing fiery red armor, carrying a fiery red bow and arrow on his back, and a fiery red short sword hanging from his waist.
Invisible fire elemental energy circled and gathered around him.
Ordinary people would feel a faint heat and an inexplicable might just by approaching him.
Zhou Zhou opened his personal information.

[Potential: White Silver-Tier Advance Grade]
Zhou Zhou clicked his tongue in wonder.
He remembered that when Bai Yi was promoted to a Black Iron-Tier Advance Grade Beginner Poison Crossbow Soldier.
She only had five professional skills in her skill bar.
At that time, Zhou Zhou was already very surprised.
Zhao Lan, this high-level elemental archer, already had a total of seven professional skills even though he was only at the Black Iron-Tier Elementary Grade.
He would definitely master more professional skills when he advanced to Black Iron-Tier Advance Grade.
“This is what it means to be a high-level soldier.”
Zhou Zhou sighed.
In the time that followed…
Elemental Archers walked out of the Gate of Summoning one after another.
minutes later.
elemental archers walked out and stood in front of Zhou Zhou.
Zhou Zhou looked at their fire-elemental armors and could not help but fall into deep thought.
Why are all the Elemental Archers I recruited of fire-element? Is it because the Elemental Archer Recruitment Books came from the Fire Demon Fog Wolf? He gave it some thought.
This seemed to be the only reason.
Zhou Zhou was not disappointed though.
Fire elemental archers were not bad either. They were definitely lethal, if anything.
After that, Zhou Zhou recruited 13 Elven Elemental Archers.
“Greetings, my Lord!”
The 13 Elven Elemental Archers said respectfully.
Zhou Zhou acknowledged and studied them.
He realized that these 13 Elemental Archers were dressed roughly the same way as the Wood Elves he had seen in the Time Ruins.
They were all wearing emerald green military equipment. Bows or short swords at their waists, etc were all emerald green.
The outfit looked lively.
The surrounding subjects and soldiers immediately exclaimed when they emerged.
Zhou Zhou ignored them.
Instead, he began to check their personal information.
Soon, Zhou Zhou knew that they comprised one Green Bronze-Tier Intermediate Grade Elemental Archer and 12 Green Bronze-Tier Elemental Archers!
They were of the same strength level as Nadia and the others.
Moreover, their potential was at least at the Yellow Gold-Tier Elementary Grade. The one with the highest potential was Diamond-Tier Intermediate Grade which was from the Green Bronze-Tier Intermediate Grade elf.
Zhou Zhou opened the interface information of the strongest elf.

[Loyalty: 72]
[Potential: Diamond-Tier Intermediate Grade]
He read about her potential as well as the unique bloodline column.
Zhou Zhou was silent.
The elves had much higher potential than the humans indeed.
However, Zhou Zhou was not discouraged.
He had a 100% drop rate.
Zhou Zhou was confident that he could build a human army that surpassed the living beings of all races in the world!
“I have more than 2,000 soldiers now.”
“To be precise, 2,290 people!”
Zhou Zhou suddenly realized that his army force had crossed another huge milestone!
A moment later, Zhou Zhou distributed the 200 Fire Demon Fog Wolf Sets he had obtained from the Time Ruins to the 97 soldiers who followed him to the Time Ruins.
The rest were temporarily saved as military merit rewards in the future.
An hour later, Zhou Zhou brought Nezario and the soldiers into the Time Ruins again.
