[Call Me Queen – Wu Zhou: Little Brother Lu Wang, what's the matter?]
[Lu Wang – Xijiang: I want to ask Miss Queen for some general knowledge. I wonder if it's convenient for you.]
[Call Me Queen – Wu Zhou: Go ahead. I've always been very patient with handsome little brothers.]
[Lv Wang-Xijiang: I want to ask, how long would it take for a veteran territory to find the coordinates of a newly promoted territory if it activates scanning mode regardless of the cost after confirming the star sector of a newly promoted territory?]
[Call Me Queen – Wu Zhou: It depends on the distance between the two territories and the strength of the lord of the old territory.]
[Lu Wang – Xijiang: It shouldn't be far, about 20 to 30 million kilometers. As for the old territory … let's take Tang Territory's Lord Taizong as a reference.]
[Call Me Queen – Wu Zhou: 20 million kilometers is indeed not far. It should be the same Star Zone. Tang Territory? It's the second-generation lord, Li Weichen, who dreams of being the emperor all day long. With his strength, to scan the coordinates of a territory 20 million kilometers away, he needs to build at least two transit stations … It should take more than two months.]
[Lu Wang – Xijiang: So Taizong's real name is Li Weichen. What if he's lucky?]
[Call Me Queen – Wu Zhou: I'm talking about the situation where he's lucky. If he's unlucky, he won't be able to find a suitable planet as a transit station. It will take even longer.]
[Lu Wang – Xijiang: I understand. Thank you, Miss Queen, for clearing my doubts.]
[Call Me Queen – Wu Zhou: You're welcome. Little Brother Lu Wang, from what you said, it seems that you've encountered a war threat from an old territory? Is it Li Weichen?]
[Lu Wang – Xijiang: Yes.]
[Call Me Queen – Wu Zhou: Hehe, do you want to consider joining me? I only want 30% of your territory's mineral vein development rights as a protection fee … The conditions are generous enough, right? With my protection, I guarantee that Li Weichen won't dare to do anything to you.]
[Lu Wang – Xijiang: Thank you, Miss Queen. If it really comes to that, I'll definitely ask you for help.]
[Call Me Queen – Wu Zhou: Hehe, when the time comes, my price will not be 30%. Little brother Lv Wang, you have to think carefully.]
[Lu Wang – Xijiang: I understand. Goodbye, Miss Queen.]
After the private conversation ended, Bai Xiaowen sighed.
"At least two months of preparation time … Let's see how far I can go."
The condition proposed by the Queen Bee was 30% of the territory's mineral vein development rights. Bai Xiaowen was not reluctant, but after giving out 30% of the development rights, Wuzhou Territory would have the qualifications to continue to intervene in White Phoenix Territory's affairs. This was not a good thing for White Phoenix Territory, which wanted to develop independently.
As for the Queen Bee's last words, Bai Xiaowen could understand why.
If Bai Xiaowen were to pledge allegiance to the Queen Bee now, the Queen Bee would only need to issue a statement in the group of feudal lords to dispel Li Weichen's thoughts of invading. This was equivalent to exchanging a statement for thirty percent of the White Phoenix Territory's mineral resources.
And if the Great Tang Territory spent a tremendous amount of effort to find the White Phoenix Territory, and when the soldiers arrived at the city gates, the Queen Bee would definitely not be able to make the Great Tang Territory retreat with just one statement. She would have to use more resources and power to protect the White Phoenix Territory.
Li Weichen had paid a lot of sunk costs, so of course, he would not give up so easily.
Therefore, when the time came, the Queen Bee's conditions would definitely be more than just thirty percent of the mineral resources.
Therefore, the Queen Bee seemed to admire Bai Xiaowen, calling him "Little Brother" and even giving Bai Xiaowen free spiritual materials and grain equipment, but those were only minor things. If it really involved the development of the territory and the fight for resources, she would definitely not be soft-hearted.
Of course, Bai Xiaowen did not mean to criticize the Queen Bee. He was still grateful for the favor that the Queen Bee had given him.
However, personal favors and the territory's plan were two different things. Both feudal lords had to be responsible for their fellow evolvers in the territory. Bai Xiaowen was so, and so was the Queen Bee.
Bai Xiaowen quickly planned his next schedule.
He wanted to cultivate first, complete the breakthrough of the two profession manuals, and raise his strength by one level. Then, he would spend a month to explore the Spirit World.
Facing the Great Tang Territory, Bai Xiaowen could only find strong reinforcements from the Spirit World. This exploration was different from the first time. Bai Xiaowen, who had improved his strength and a clear goal, would shift the focus of the exploration to making friends with the native forces of the Spirit World and strive to use spirit crystals to "buy" a portion of the native experts.
He had to nurture the people of his territory, but there was not enough time. He had to summon a group of experts who could fight as soon as they arrived. This way, Bai Xiaowen's advantage as a commander-type evolver lord could be fully displayed.
His consciousness sank into his sea of consciousness, and Bai Xiaowen once again entered a state of cultivation.
This time, Bai Xiaowen decisively used the precious "Hero 5A" light ball of enlightenment.
The effect was so good that Bai Xiaowen found it unbelievable.
It lasted for a full three minutes of enlightenment!
It was as if a mighty senior had possessed him and personally led Bai Xiaowen to comprehend the profession manuals!
Not only were the existing problems solved one by one, but when he read the first chapter of The Art of War, there were also new deductions and insights. This feeling was already indescribable.
A large amount of experience and insights were engraved in Bai Xiaowen's heart.
There was even a lot of time left for enlightenment, which was enough for Bai Xiaowen to advance the progress of the first level of The Great Void Sutra by a large margin.
After the three minutes of enlightenment ended, Bai Xiaowen did not open his eyes.
Now that his mind was stuffed with a pile of insights, it was the best time to cultivate and digest them.
Bai Xiaowen went through a long period of cultivation, consuming spirit crystals one after another.
Finally, after two and a half days of cultivation, he digested the insights he had gained this time.
The Spirit World's laws notified him, "Your profession manual, The Art of War, has broken through the first chapter. You are currently at the upper (advanced) level."
"Your level has increased to 12."
"As The Art of War has tempered your body, your Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution attributes have increased by 10 points each. Your Spirit attribute has increased by 15 points."
"The upper limit of your True Inner Force has increased by 320 points. Your current upper limit is: 1,711 points."
"You have learned a new skill: Array Formation. Currently, the cornerstone formations we have are: Arrow Formation, Wall Formation, and Wind Formation. "
Bai Xiaowen opened his eyes and immediately inquired.
"I am a dual-profession evolver. My second profession manual, The Great Void Sutra, did not break through. How did it reach level 12?"
The Spirit World's laws replied, "Profession level advancement is based on the cultivation progress of the initial profession manual."
Bai Xiaowen immediately asked, "Then, what if my Great Void Sutra also breaks through the level? Will I also enjoy the attribute bonuses, the upper limit of my True Inner Force, and learn new skills? "
