Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead - Chapter 343

Chapter 343: Chapter 337, City Lord Dong Jiayue l

[Random Event: The Path of the Brave (Accepted).]

[Book of Lords Function Unlocked: Team-Up Function.]

[Team trial task begins in ten hours, with a maximum of three people allowed per team for the trial. (This trial is a ‘Lords’ trial, heroes and troops not allowed to come along.)]

[Team-up Status: Maximum of three people per team; team members will be auto-transported to the team leader’s territory.]

[Event countdown: 9 hours 59 minutes.]

[Good luck….]

The sudden alert caught Fang Hao off guard.

It had already been a while since the last event task.

He had not expected a new team-up event task to be triggered all of a sudden.

Based on previous experience.

Team tasks can be understood as one type of test trial given by the system for ‘transmigrators’.

Getting through the trial could result in rewards such as potions or skill-based equipment.

While facing risks, it also gave an opportunity to enhance one’s own capabilities.

Ding!

The private message alert on the Book of Lords rang: it was a message from Dong Jiayue.

“Brother Hao, are we teaming up again for this one!”

He hadn’t been in touch with Dong Jiayue for quite some time.

Looking at the tone of her message, it seemed she was in good spirits.

“Sure, it’ll be you, me, and Zhang Bin. Get yourself ready, and let me know if you need anything in advance,” Fang Hao agreed straight away.

The last team trial experience they had had together was a synergy.

Dong Jiayue, who appears to be a frail young woman in particular, exhibited battle prowess that was entirely contrary to her physical appearance.

At the end of the last task, she even managed to kill the Doomsday Terror Wolf boss with a single lance thrust.

In terms of her combat power and battle tactics, she ranked higher than both Fang Hao and Zhang Bin.

“Alright, Brother Hao, we’ll meet up tomorrow then,” Dong Jiayue said.

“Sure, see you tomorrow.”

Ending the chat with Dong Jiayue,

Zhang Bin reached out almost immediately, and he asked about the team arrangement for tomorrow as well.

Besides Fang Hao, who already had exposure to the Alchemist Guild, for the majority of the other Lords, team trials serve as their only chance to improve themselves.

If missed out, the next opportunity could be at an uncertain date.

Fang Hao told him that the team line-up hadn’t changed, and advised him to get ready too.

After notifying Zhang Bin,

The territory’s communication channel started buzzing.

Fu Lei: “Boss, any plans for the team task?”

It appeared that Fu Lei also wanted to become a teammate of Fang Hao’s. With Fang Hao’s strong combat power, it would certainly make him feel safer.

Fang Hao spoke bluntly, “I already have a fixed team. You can team up with Kong Yong, and see if there are other suitable candidates.”

With a team limit of three, not everyone could be included.

“Oh, got it, I will need to rely on Brother Kong then,” Fu Lei acknowledged.

“I’m not any big deal. Let’s just support each other. Find someone we both know to join us. It’s safer than having a stranger on board,” Kong Yong also sent a message.

Following that, the two of them began discussing their team for tomorrow’s task.

Fang Hao observed their chat for a while,

Then he exited from the channel, had a hot spring bath, and went to bed.

Waking up at 6 A.M. the following day,

Fang Hao had breakfast and began preparing the equipment necessary for the task.

For weapons, he chose the Starfire Wand, the Black Iron Knight one-handed sword, and a Light Feather short sword.

The armor was a full suit of leather under a robe of magic. He didn’t pack any heavy metal armor this time.

In the storage space of the Book of Lords, besides several life-saving potions, there were also several sets of alternative equipment.

Just in case of any special circumstances.

Having ensured everything was in order, Fang Hao called Demitrija and Anjia.

He informed them about his absence to prevent them from panicking because of his sudden disappearance.

At sharp 7 A.M.,

Fang Hao used the Book of Lords to send a message to Zhang Bin.

“It’s getting late, let’s form the team!”

“Sure, boss.” Zhang Bin responded instantly.

Following that, a system prompt appeared before his eyes.

[Zhang Bin has sent you an invitation to his team. Do you accept?]

Accept!

Fang Hao was enveloped in a soft glow; when he opened his eyes next, he found himself in the city manned by Zhang Bin.

All the roads in the city had been converted to stone pavement.

They had also constructed flower beds on either side of the roads.

It had improved significantly since the last time Fang Hao visited.

“Boss!” Zhang Bin came forward with a smile on his face.

“Great, send Jia Yue the invitation now,” Fang Hao ordered.

“OK, boss.”

Zhang Bin then opened the Book of Lords and sent a team invitation to Dong Jiayue.

In a short while, a ray of light appeared before them.

Once the light faded, Dong Jiayue appeared before them.

Dong Jiayue was wearing full metal armor, one hand holding a helmet while the other was carrying a war spear.

She had a dagger on her waist and the box of Steel Fire Muskets she had received from Fang Hao on her back.

It appeared she had also made ample preparations for this task.

“Brother Hao, Brother Bin, you both seem to be doing well,” Dong Jiayue greeted them with a smile as she stood before them.

She then noticed the changes in Zhang Bin’s city.

She exclaimed, “Brother Bin, your place has changed so much! You even have paved roads, and what are those tall buildings?”

Like a curious child, Jia Yue was looking around with wide eyes.

“Oh, that’s a flour mill for grinding grains,” Zhang Bin answered cheerfully while standing by the side.

The feeling of being looked up to was not bad at all.

“Wow! You’re amazing,” Dong Jiayue exclaimed.

On her side, she had received support from Fang Hao’s skeleton trolls and also had two subsidiary territories. Her development could be said to be smooth.

However, compared to Zhang Bin’s territory, her place seemed like a poor countryside village with fewer inhabitants.

The two were in entirely different phases.

After listening to Zhang Bin, Jia Yue shifted her gaze to Fang Hao.

She was aware that Zhang Bin’s territory was a subsidiary city of Fang Hao’s.

If a subsidiary city could be developed to this extent, wouldn’t the main city be even more impressive?

She still remembered her agreement with Fang Hao that she would become a subsidiary city of his during the next team trial task.

“Brother Hao, you’ve become more handsome lately,” Jia Yue greeted Fang Hao as she moved closer to him.

Fang Hao, who was caught off guard, touched his face subconsciously, “Really?

Could be that I washed my face today.”

“Hehe! Yes, you’ve indeed become more handsome. Brother Hao, remember you promised you’d cover me before? You haven’t forgotten that, have you?” she then changed the subject.

Fang Hao remembered what she was referring to very well, he reminded her, “Keep this in mind, once you swallow the Book of Lords, you will no longer be a lord.”

“Stop the nonsense, hurry up, the task is about to start,” Dong Jiayue urged.

Oh,….

When Fang Hao received the Book of Lords (Level 2) from Dong Jiayue, a system prompt appeared again.

The Book of Lords, owned by Dong Jiayue, turned into a beam of light and integrated itself into Fang Hao’s own Book of Lords.

[Swallowing was successful, the current Level of your Book of Lords, is 5, upgrade requirement 5/10.]

[You have obtained the decision-making authority of Dong Jiayue’s main city and two subsidiary cities.]
