The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth.

Chapter 610 System Update (with data)

"So... this is your first time riding a dragon?" Caslo and Ajax stared at Roland in astonishment after hearing his story, their eyes constantly shifting between Roland and Doss. Doss Anthony, who was watching from the sidelines, was also shocked by Roland. To dare to fight a dragon on his first try was probably unprecedented in the history of dragon knights. However, it also set a record for the fastest dragon knight to die, since it was all a one-shot kill from riding the dragon to dying in battle. Among dragon knights, it was like a scorpion taking a dump—a unique existence!

"..." Roland glared at the two of them with a dark face. Wasn't this a classic case of bringing up the most sensitive topic? If he were even a little more experienced, would he have flown to this ravine with Doss?
“However, we should help His Highness Apophis Breo solve a major problem!” Caslo subtly changed the subject, and sure enough, Roland’s attention was drawn, and he quickly asked.

"What do you mean? Explain it in detail!"

Roland said he still enjoys the melons from his first vassal, especially the ripe ones.

“The orc kingdom you destroyed should be the same orc force that has been constantly invading Lion Territory,” Caslo said to Roland after calculating the distance.

"It should only work temporarily. After all, the orc kingdom wasn't completely destroyed. It's just that their capital was completely buried..." Roland shook his head. How could an orc dungeon that had been ravaged by dragons escape unscathed?

“In any case, at least for the time being, His Highness Apophis Breo doesn’t have to worry about the orc army pressing in.” Caslo shook his head.

"Let's go back, otherwise Nyx will worry." Roland suddenly missed his wife.

"..." Caslo and Ajax exchanged a glance. They really wanted to say to Roland, "Aren't you curious who found out you were in trouble? Is it possible that your wife is crying her eyes out and is currently mustering the nation's troops to prepare for revenge?"

……

"Hmm?" Roland, sitting behind Caslo, suddenly noticed something was amiss. He hadn't paid much attention to the system these past couple of days, and now it was lagging when he opened the system panel?

"What's going on?" Roland wondered to himself.

"System restart successful!" The system's cold voice sounded like heavenly music to Roland's ears.

"Reboot?" Roland's lips twitched.

Roland then saw the following in the daily log of the system interface...

"The quest 'Death and Rebirth' has been successfully completed! Reward: Dragon Knight Dos Anthony!"

"Your life force has been burned away by sacrifice, and you are about to die!"

"You are dead!"

"Sorry, host, the system is shutting down! Goodbye..."

"Host vital signs detected!"

"It's restarting!"

"System restarting! Task calibration in progress!"

"It's updating!"

"System update successful! Restarting!"

"System restart successful!"

"6!" Roland could only say "amazing." He never expected that after dying once, the system would have so much drama.

Now he knew where Dos Anthony came from. After carefully reviewing the details, he discovered that when he was critically wounded and on the verge of death, the two orcs didn't finish him off but instead retreated. The system automatically marked him as having successfully escaped after defeating his opponent, so the mission was completed, and a reward was issued. However, because he died quickly, despite the system's initial guidance, Dos Anthony didn't find Roland directly like other subordinates recruited by the system. Fortunately, Roland was lucky; although there was no system intervention, Dos Anthony still encountered him and protected his body, otherwise Roland might not have survived.

"System! Check the territory panel!" Roland said quietly.

Wyvern Riders: 10 (Tier 2)

Population: 31194 (2972 civilians who can be trained)
Evaluation: The lonely king led his surviving people back to their homeland and built this city with high walls. The city has a considerable population, giving it a more vibrant and lively atmosphere. Everything is developing in a positive direction. The city's military strength is formidable, capable of protecting itself even in the face of a large-scale attack. The city has its own vassal territories and appears to be thriving! Note: There is a gap in soldier training, and a lack of training capabilities for awakening professional skills.

Abilities: 1. As the only city of the Lagrange Kingdom in Middle-earth, she will attract the remnants of Lagrange. The system will guide a group of wandering Lagrange civilians to her city every day, hoping that the lord can properly settle them.

2. Allow the recruitment of local civilians to train swift infantry.

3. The administrative center of the Lagrange Kingdom; the people of Lagrange will receive a faith bonus when they are in the city.

Note: The city has just experienced war, and the residents are still immersed in the grief of losing their loved ones.

II. Tupte Territory (Villages):
Buildings: Well, Wall, Lord's Hall, 20 Houses.

Lord: Baron Baldr
People: 349

Assessment: One of the few centaurs in Middle-earth, they are grateful for King Roland Lagrange's kindness and serve him. Note: Although these centaurs are formidable fighters, their small population size makes them less effective in large-scale battles.

Note: This territory has been temporarily abandoned due to war.

III. Lulong Fortress:
Area: One kilometer in radius.

Buildings: 8 Dragon Towers, 100 Heavy Crossbow Towers, Super Magic Rune Walls, War Inscriptions...

Evaluation: This is the last proof of the Empire's existence! Beneath the towering Lulong Fortress lie the remains of orcs, the bones of black knights piled high, evil spirits perished here, darkness buried their bones here, the dark walls are stained with the blood of the Dark Alliance, the entire fortress sits atop a mountain of corpses!
Note: This fortress, which has survived a major battle, is now riddled with holes and needs repair in many places. Fortunately, the powerful kingdom's soldiers have repelled the formidable enemy!
IV. Delwin (town)
Area: 500 meters in radius
Buildings: wooden and stone city walls, basic arrow towers, ordinary houses, wells, taverns...

Population: 1463 (465 civilians can be trained)
Evaluation: A small town primarily based on agriculture, full of vitality, with commerce beginning to revive here, and the neighboring Tupte territory can provide excellent support and assistance.

Note: This town has been temporarily abandoned due to the war.

V. King's Landing Family Fief: King's Landing Lionlands

Knights of the Empire: 16 (one Tier 3, 15 Tier 2)
Valiant Warriors (ordinary soldiers): 200.

Population: 1241.

Evaluation: A competent pioneering nobleman who built a castle and then a simple fortress, thus gaining initial control over the territory and gradually increasing the kingdom's control over this land.

VI. Palembang

Lagrange City Guards: 100

Population: 3000.

Commentary: The king's foresight demonstrates that while one should not harbor malicious intentions, one must always be wary of others! This city bears the heavy responsibility of being a waterway hub and a bridgehead for containing Western countries!

Overall Assessment: A thriving kingdom. Despite the turbulent surroundings, the resilient people of Lagrange tenaciously defend this ancient land, and their king continues to protect what little remains! This war-torn kingdom once again demonstrates its formidable strength! (Suggestion: The kingdom urgently needs more land and people to rebuild. The Eastern Barbarians occupy Dovenian in the east, and the Orcs in the south are entrenched in Dolgod! The ruins of Lagrange still await the king's restoration...) Note: The kingdom is currently engaged in excessive military expansion!

Roland didn't react much to the first part, but the last part was just too damning! What the hell is this "militarism"? However, after looking at the less than three thousand eligible soldiers in Jiliu City, Roland remained silent. The system was right; he had indeed been militarism.

"So... this system has been updated, right?" Roland couldn't help but swear. He hadn't noticed any changes yet, and it felt like an unscrupulous game that kept releasing a few zero-version updates every day, but when he logged in, there was basically nothing different.

"Forget it, as long as the system didn't break down!" Roland didn't ask for too much. Having already died once, he was very easygoing about everything.

"System check-in!" Roland said listlessly.
