Chapter 2 Treasure Order and Void Spirit Fish
  【Name】: Levi Monterey

【Life】: 18/73
  [Level]: Level Elementary
  [Bloodline]: None

[Talent]: None

Levi hurried back to his room, a long list of dazzling entries appeared in his mind, which made him a little overwhelmed.

[Ding ~ The milestone "Name of Lord" has been reached, and you have received the reward, a primary treasure token]

[Ding ~ The milestone "The Beginning of the Extraordinary" has been reached, and you have received the reward, a primary treasure token]

Levi clicked one of the treasure tokens curiously.

[System prompt: Treasure Order can refresh multiple precious rewards in the system, and the host can only choose one of them. Rewards include lifespan, bloodline, talents, equipment, knowledge, etc. Please choose the host carefully. 】

[Do you want to use this primary treasure order? 】

"Yes," Levi replied subconsciously.

[Please choose one of the following three rewards]

[Reward 1]: Judgment Blade. This is a fine-grade long sword. It has three extraordinary effects: powerful armor breaking, tearing, and continuous blood loss. It can be called a rare masterpiece among fine-grade weapons.

[Reward 2]: Void Spiritual Contract (beginner level). You will sign a master-servant contract with a fourth-level elementary void spirit fish. The Void Spirit Fish can shuttle between the void and the real world three times a day, and can advance by devouring flesh and blood (current upper limit: fourth-level advanced).

[Reward 10]: Balrog bloodline (thin). You will obtain the rare blood of the Balrog (can be inherited). The appearance changes slightly and a small amount of fire element resistance is gained. The release speed of all fire witchcraft is increased by %, and comes with a small amount of abyss fire (the host has a small probability of obtaining Balrog-related talents when advancing).

[Please host to make a choice within 300 seconds]

Gan! Big gift package for newbies?
  Looking at the three rewards in front of him, Levi instantly became energetic.

Needless to say, the first value is that Levi's grandfather, Gareth, was a sixth-level Sunshine warrior, and the most valuable items on his body were three sophisticated weapons.

In the Hisoka plane, sophisticated weapons are worth at least five thousand gold coins, and the ways to obtain them are very limited. Generally speaking, if a fifth-level Silver Moon master has no background, he may not be able to acquire a piece of sophisticated equipment after working hard all his life.

The second reward is simple and crude, and its practicality rate is off the charts. It directly provides Levi with a loyal and reliable powerful combat force, and this so-called Void Spirit Fish still has room for advancement.

The value of the third reward is immeasurable. Most of the great nobles in the Hisoka plane have the blood of powerful creatures, and it is the power of these inherited blood that makes them prosperous.

Levi thought briefly and ruled out the first reward. The stuff is good stuff, but Levi can't use it. At most, it can be equipped by the cavalry captain Harland or the guard captain Beram.

Not to mention that there are already three pieces of sophisticated equipment left behind by his grandfather in his private treasury, adding another one is the icing on the cake.

Not to mention the possibility that the two Haalands were the murderers of their predecessors. Would giving them equipment be siding with the enemy?

The third reward, the Fire Demon and the Blood Demon, has the highest value, but Levi also excluded this one. If bloodline inheritance is to be turned into strength, what Li Wei needs is the time he lacks the most.

"I choose the second option, the Void Spiritual Contract!"

Levi finally made his choice. The Void Spirit Pact can immediately provide Levi with a powerful assistant, and there is also some room for improvement.

Immediately, Levi felt a trace of his spiritual power being drained from him, and then that trace of spiritual power flew into the endless void, leaving his mark on a spiritual contract.

"Void Spirit Fish?" Levi tried to call.

A three-meter-long, translucent lavender fish appeared out of thin air in the bedroom.

Looking at this naive fat fish, Levi couldn't help but touch his round head. The big purple fish also cupped Levi's hand affectionately with its head, actively responding to the owner's favor.

"From now on, you will be called Fat Zi!" Li Wei, who lives in poverty, gave his pet a hasty name.

"You go back first."

Watching Fat Zi escape into the void quietly, Li Wei found that the chubby Fat Zi should be more suitable for a sneak attack.

At this time, Li Wei looked at the remaining treasure token on the panel, and his heart felt hot.

But soon, his reason told him that the remaining treasure token could no longer be used. As long as you hold this thing in your hand, you will always have a little room for choice.

Li Wei currently lacks understanding of the enemy. He will not rashly choose stud until the critical moment. The remaining treasure order is his most critical back-up.

Continuing to flip through the panel, the next information made Levi's expression serious.

[Event]: Lord’s Glory.

The orcs, who have a short lifespan and are more fertile than humans, have recovered from the last war. This time, they launched an all-out war, vowing to regain their territory that was invaded by the Kingdom of Fontaine!

The Tangquan Territory and Silver Pine Territory, which the Black Mountain Territory relies on as barriers, have been destroyed one after another. The Gray Rock Castle is also in danger. The Black Mountain Territory has reached a critical moment of life and death.

As the lord of the Black Mountain Territory, you must stick to the territory (Fort Monterey has never fallen), protect the territory's people (the number of people living in the territory >10000/12021), and defend the glory of the lord!

If the event is successful, the host can obtain a wonder and several treasure tokens.

If the event fails, the system will be automatically destroyed and all items from the system will be recycled. "Gan! If your teammates are wiped out, you have to keep the crystal by yourself, right?"

Of course, Li Wei chose to stick to the Black Mountain Territory. The Black Mountain Territory had been regarded as private property by Mr. Li Wei who had traveled through time, let alone his golden finger - the system.

Levi planned to discuss it with Pedro and the other three first. Let's not mention that before fighting against the outside world, we must first settle down at home. Now we are all grasshoppers in the same boat. If the Montenegro collar is gone, everyone will not have a good life.

Fifteen minutes later, the Montenegrin lord Levi, the old steward Pedro, the cavalry captain Harland, and the captain of the guard Bellam gathered in the meeting hall of Monterey Fort.

After dismissing all the guards, Li Wei asked straight to the point: "The three elders should have been notified about the orc invasion. I want to hear your opinions."

Harland, the always eager cavalry captain, spoke first: "Baron, although the enemy is strong and we are weak, we must hold on to Fort Monterey! Once a noble abandons his land and leaves, he will be deprived of his title and fief!"

"Harland! Pay attention to the tone of your words!" the old housekeeper scolded sternly.

Harland shrank his head and smiled.

The Kingdom of Fontaine was founded on military merit. While enjoying a high degree of autonomy in the territory, the nobles must also shoulder the responsibility of defending the territory.

Nobles who abandon their land without reason will not only be deprived of their title, but will also have no chance of making a difference in the kingdom for the rest of their lives.

"Well, Uncle Harland, you can rest assured that I will not bring shame to my grandfather. The word escape is not in the dictionary of our Monterey family.

Grandpa Pedro, there is no need to be angry, Uncle Harland is just a little anxious. "

The old butler Pedro, whose face softened, said to Levi seriously: "Baron, although Harland has a bad mouth, he is indeed telling the truth. I believe in your determination to stick to the territory, but I also hope that you will Don’t be careless and underestimate the enemy.”

"Lord Baron, I mean the same thing. I will go all out to defend Fort Monterey, and at the same time send a messenger to ask for help from the county." Bellam, the usually calm and calm captain of the guard, expressed his attitude.

"What about Graystone Castle? If we can give them some assistance, is it feasible to defend them from the enemy?"

"Ahem, Lord Baron, the Gray Stone Territory is slightly lacking in force." Old Pedro reminded tactfully.

"Hmph, Baron Greystone is a coward. When the old baron was still here, a small group of orcs would scare him into hiding in his castle and then ask for help from the old baron!" Harlan, who has always been domineering, said De looked down upon Baron Graystone very much.

The Black Mountain Territory is located behind the three baronies of Tangquan, Silver Pine, and Limestone. When the three major baronies are attacked, Montenegro can effectively provide support.

These four baronies are located in the northwest of Green County. They have been on the offensive route of the orcs many times in history. Back then, Gareth's cultivation was as high as the sixth level, but due to lack of background, he was only awarded the title of Baron. The kingdom enfeoffed him here, which may not have meant giving him the opportunity to achieve meritorious service and be promoted to the rank of viscount.

Unfortunately, the Montenegro region has never experienced a serious war in decades, and Gareth died with regrets. Tangquan, Yinsong, and Huiyan are all weakened because they have been backed by big trees for a long time and have been peaceful for a long time.

"Lord Baron, no matter how empty the baronies of Tangquan and Yinsong are, they should be guarded by at least a fourth-level transcendent.

In addition, they were backed by the castle and occupied a good location. Among the orcs who launched the offensive this time, there should be fifth-level Silver Moon powerhouses to win so cleanly.

Perhaps tomorrow morning we will receive news of the fall of Gray Rock Castle. The orcs are very likely to arrive at the city within four or five days! "

Bellam's solemn expression made everyone's hearts sink. Everyone understood that Bellam's speculation was by no means alarmist, and there was not much time left for the Black Mountain Leader.

Looking at the treasure order lying on the panel, Levi felt a little comforted. After pondering for a moment, as if he had made up his mind, Levi said:

"Uncle Harland, I will write a letter asking for help later. You send a capable and clever knight with four horses and one man, with enough gold coins, and ask him to deliver the letter to Earl Norton within thirty-six hours, and then Try to gather some information about this orc invasion and return as soon as possible.

In addition, I need you to organize the evacuation of several villages in the territory quickly, and use force if necessary! "

"As ordered!"

"Uncle Bellam, how is the power of our extraordinary beings in the Black Mountain Territory?"

In the Hisoka Plane, where the weak prey on the strong, almost everyone will try to practice. Low-level martial arts are everywhere, but only those who practice to the third level can be truly recognized.

"In the territory of Montenegro, there are only two martial arts cultivators of the fourth-level shooting star, me and Harland. I am a fourth-level senior, and he is a fourth-level intermediate.

There are 47 third-level mortal warriors in the Black Mountain leader's private army, including 6 third-level advanced warriors, 13 third-level intermediate warriors, and 28 third-level junior warriors.

There are 100 second-level trainee warriors, all of whom are second-level advanced soldiers.

In addition, there are seven or eight third-level hunters and adventurers in the territory, and they can also be recruited to defend the city. "

"Uncle Beram, our army is still too small. I suggest that all the second-level and above cultivation levels in the territory be recruited as auxiliary soldiers and then be briefly trained."

"No problem, I'll do it right away!"

"Grandpa Perode, you will organize the remaining citizens into groups and implement military control. I will need a large number of laborers to improve the defense of Fort Monterey in a while. You can allocate the food and materials in the territory."

"Don't worry, Lord Baron, these are all my old skills."

The rusty war machine of the Montenegrin Territory finally started to move after being dormant for several years.
