202: Unlock alliance function and city landing

The roulette pointer began to spin, eventually stopping on a golden square, yielding a golden conscription order (Golden Armor Holy Guards).

The natural refresh entered a seven-day countdown again, and Yang Qianhun directly used the free refresh, reducing the count from 2 to 1.

The heavenly dao roulette draw count also changed from 4 to 3, and the roulette pointer began to spin.

Finally, it stopped on a golden square without a doubt.

With a thought, a treasure Yang Qianhun had just drawn appeared in his hand—another golden conscription order (Sword Saint Guards).

He then repeated the previous operation, and eventually, the heavenly dao roulette draw count was down to two, and the free refresh count returned to zero.

The pointer of the heavenly dao roulette landed on a golden square once more.

With a thought, another golden conscription order appeared in Yang Qianhun's hand, which was indeed for Golden Armor Holy Guards.

He then used the three golden conscription orders in his hand to summon twenty Sword Saint Guards and forty Golden Armor Holy Guards, respectively.

Just as Yang Qianhun finished these tasks,

Suddenly, the Heavenly Dao's announcement echoed in everyone's minds.

【Heavenly Dao Announcement: Alliance function unlocked. Each Lord can use an Alliance Token to create an alliance.】

【Heavenly Dao Announcement: Building unlocked: Siege Weaponry Workshop. You can construct Siege Floating Platforms, Ladders, Siege Trebuchets, and Catapults. (Siege Weaponry Workshop does not require upgrading).】

【Heavenly Dao Announcement: City Descent. Each Ten Thousand Races Battlefield will be divided into 1-297 cities, including 10 Level 1 cities, 37 Level 2 cities, and 250 Level 3 cities.】

【Heavenly Dao Announcement: Benefits of occupying a city:

1. If your territory is destroyed, its functions can be transferred to the affiliated city, and the Lord will not die due to the destruction of their territory.

2. When Soldiers are within the city, their overall strength increases by ten percent.

3. Various treasures can be randomly purchased within the city.

4. Occupying a city rewards the City Lord with resources daily.

5. Special troop types can be recruited within the city.

6. An alarm will be issued if there are enemy troops in the area.

7. After occupying a city, the resources in the area will double.

...Please explore other benefits on your own.】

【Heavenly Dao Announcement: The difficulty of each city varies greatly. Level 1 cities are the most difficult, followed by Level 2 cities, and finally Level 3 cities. However, the situation of each city is not the same, so please attack with caution.】

【Heavenly Dao Announcement: For each city captured, the Heavenly Dao will reward resources and treasure chests based on merit.】

【Heavenly Dao Announcement: Alliances can occupy countless cities, but each Lord can bind a maximum of ten cities based on their realm (Note: One for Spirit Practitioner Level, two for Spirit General Rank… ten for Spirit Emperor Level).】

...

The continuous Heavenly Dao announcements stirred up a huge wave across the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield, astonishing all races.

Based on the content of the Heavenly Dao announcement, Yang Qianhun analyzed the following points:

1. There are only 297 cities. Occupying a city is equivalent to giving a Lord an extra life, preventing them from dying if their territory falls. Of course, if the person is gone, then they are gone.

2. Initially, one million Lords came to the No. 666 Battlefield. After four territory defense battles and dozens of days of fighting, probably over ninety percent have been eliminated. But even if only ten percent remain, that's still one hundred thousand people. Just thinking about it reveals how fierce the competition for these 297 cities will be in the future.

3. The difficulty of Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 cities will likely be harder than imagined. This isn't just a matter of sieging; what if they are ambushed or interfered with during the siege?

4. To obtain all cities, an alliance must be created. However, each Lord can only bind a limited number of cities, meaning that excess cities will need to be distributed. The binders must be reliable, at least subordinate Lords.

...

Numerous thoughts emerged in Yang Qianhun's mind as he gained a lot of information from the Heavenly Dao announcement.

Then, Yang Qianhun summoned the virtual panel in his mind.

Indeed, a "Alliance" option had been added to the virtual panel.

With a thought, he clicked into "Alliance."

One option was to create an alliance, and the other was to join an alliance.

However, after clicking on the "Join Alliance" option, it was empty, as no one had created an alliance yet.

And creating an alliance required an Alliance Token, so it couldn't be created at the moment.

Returning to the virtual panel, he opened "Territory Information."

A Siege Weaponry Workshop had been added to the buildings in "Territory Information." Construction requirements: 500,000 pieces of iron, 500,000 pieces of wood, 500,000 pieces of stone, 20,000 pieces of copper, and 10,000 spirit stones.

Although the four basic resources each required five hundred thousand, it didn't need further upgrades, so in the long run, the required resources weren't excessive.

He continued to return to the virtual panel and opened "Map."

The vast "Map" had already been divided into 1-297 regions, like a sprawling painting separated into 297 sections by dashed lines.

But each small section was tightly adjacent to another.

Some regions were connected to several other regions, meaning only the peripheral regions had better positions, connecting to fewer other regions.

A city was located in each of the 297 regions, and the city in each region was marked with a white light dot.

The white light dot clearly indicated that it was unoccupied by a Lord.

The white light dots for Level 1 cities were relatively larger, Level 2 cities' dots were smaller, and Level 3 cities' dots were the smallest, but this did not affect viewing.

The regions with Level 1 cities were Region 1 to Region 10; Region 11 to Region 47 were all Level 2 cities; and the subsequent regions were Level 3 cities.

However, a more important point was that regions 1-297 were not arranged in an orderly fashion, but rather seemed to be somewhat randomly arranged.

There was no discernible pattern.

It was as if these numbers were randomly scattered across these regions, very chaotic.

And from the map, Yang Qianhun's territory was located in the southern part of the "Map."

His region was Region 66, and the city was naturally a Level 3 city.

The Level 3 city was only one thousand kilometers in a straight line from his territory.

With his Spirit General Rank strength and the speed boost from the Shadow Chasing Boots of the Void, he could arrive in less than two hours at full speed.

The strategic goal was now clear: first, capture the city in Region 66 to gain full regional visibility.

Then, gradually advance outwards, capturing all cities in all 297 regions of the No. 666 Battlefield.

Yang Qianhun exited the virtual panel, rested his right hand on his chin, and fell into contemplation.

He decided to first inspect the city in Region 66 before making his next move.

With his decision made, Yang Qianhun summoned the six generals: Ma Chao, Xiahou Yuan, Luo Cheng, Wei Yan, Dian Wei, and Huang Zhong.

He then led 12,400 Shadow Guards, 420 Magic Wolf Knights, 320 Sword Saint Guards, and 220 Curse Warlocks—the four major troop types—towards the location of the 66th City.
