Doom Lord

Chapter 83- Xianghe Village

Chapter 83 Part 1- Xianghe Village

At this time, Cheng Yang has already used up two bottles of health potions to maintain his health value above 70%.

Until the last moment, the enchanted beasts didn’t erupt any powerful skills. Even the black bear was powerless to reverse the forthcoming situation.

When Cheng Yang arrived beneath the altar, he released an ice puck, knocking down the black bear from the altar. The black bear filled with rage immediately got back up and roared at Cheng Yang, then hoisting its’ huge bear claw, fanned down at Cheng Yang’s chest.

This monster truly possessed a powerful deterrent. It can even be said that since his rebirth that this was the tallest enchanted beast he had seen. Of course, by length, it was worse than the blackwater crocodile by a mile.

Cheng Yang’s attack speed was nearly twice as fast than beforehand. As this monster was rushing over, another ice puck was ejected, reaching one step faster than the other side, and striking it on the face. At once, its’ health value was reduced to a dangerously low level.

However, at this time the black bear’s attack finally arrived at Cheng Yang’s side. Its’ huge claws slapped against Cheng Yang’s left shoulder, and the immense force immediately sent Cheng Yang flying.

Faced with this situation, Cheng Yang was quite annoyed. Why did he choose to be a magician? In terms of terms of strength and health, they weren’t as good as the warriors. And with physical attacks that rival the enchanted beasts, they can stand toe-to-toe against a powerful enchanted beast.

If a warrior managed to get close to a magician, and was able to land a powerful hit onto the magician’s body, then the other side would be sent flying. In the event that the magician couldn’t properly adjust his form, then there may be a chance of him losing an opportunity to attack. Like how warriors had to deal with the attacks from magicians. If the shields in their hands aren’t used correctly, then likewise they can only passively take a beating.

Fortunately, Cheng Yang’s fighting experience was very abundant. In the moment that he was sent flying, he spinned his legs in the air, and then with the centrifugal force quickly fall toward the ground.

However, trouble came at this time. Now there are no space left on the ground. His feet landed on the back of a steel boar, and immediately the monster was riled up, causing Cheng Yang to be unsteady.

At this time, if Cheng Yang decided to use ice thorn to clear up the enchanted beast in the surroundings, he would inevitably be caught up by the black bear, and once again be sent flying. In desperation, he had to take a shot, then continued to look for another target

The extent of his speed was much faster than the black bear, by the time he had escaped the black bear only started to pursue. In a flash, he ejected out an ice puck, once more hitting the black bear on the chest.

Just listening to the black bear’s howls can make a person feel chills going down their back. Its body began to sways back and forth, and then slowly collapse to the ground. Two unlucky enchanted beasts around the black bear were also affected by the collapse of the black bear. Although they didn’t died, but their injury wasn’t shallow either.

After the black bear collapsed to the ground, the enchanted beast’s group as a whole momentarily halted. How could Cheng Yang let go of such an opportunity? Immediately, he jumped into the air, reaching four meters high, and was heading straight toward the top of the altar.

When he stood above the altar, his innermost feeling were calm and steady. This three meters tall altar was already something that is beyond the reaches of these first early-order enchanted beasts.

Basically, this altar has been marked by Cheng Yang. Not wanting to contain his excitement, Cheng Yang let out a wild shout, and then follow up with a large-scale massacre of the surrounding enchanted beasts.

Ice thorns continually fall down from the sky, taking the life of one enchanted beast after another. Although there are occasionally a few first medium-order enchanted beasts mixed in that would rushed to the altar, but they were also killed one by one by Cheng Yang’s ice puck.

10 minutes later, Cheng Yang’s backpack were completely consumed of mana potion. At the same time, all the enchanted beasts in this area were also destroyed.

As he watched the last enchanted beast fall to the ground, Cheng Yang let out a long sigh of relief. Finally, this station will be his.

Chapter 83 Part 2- Xianghe Village

Cheng Yang immediately jumped off the altar, and placed his hand on it. In a quiet voice, he said:

“In the name of Cheng Yang! Occupy this altar! ”

The moment his voice fell, a faint white light shot out from the stone, and sank into Cheng Yang’s body. Then, he felt a familiar sense of contact to the stone coming from his heart.

Meanwhile, four light beams burst forth from the ground, quickly forming four virtual statues. In a brief moment, the four virtual statues congealed into solid shapes, looking exactly like the four profession statues in Luo Feng village, only just a bit smaller.

A voice sounded in Cheng Yang’s ear: “Congratulation on your success in occupying Xianghe village field station. Due to you already being the lord of Luo Feng village, please select a village to be the main village. ”

“Friendly tips: The main village will become the core of the territory, while the remaining villages will become affiliated station. Once the main village is selected, it can’t be changed. Once the main village is compromised, and if more than 70% of the affiliated station’s managers declared independence, then the territory will be disbanded. If the territory is disband, the lord’s control over the affiliated stations will also disappear.”

In his past life, Cheng Yang had also heard about this main village. Bluntly speaking, it’s the capital of the territory, the equivalent of the capital of a province, or the capital of a country. Cheng Yang’s territory was now merely two villages, so calling the main village the capital at this stage was a bit overstretched.

“Set Luo Feng village as the main village. “Cheng Yang without any hesitation, immediately made the decision. He had no reason not to select Luo Feng village as the main village, but there are many reasons why he should make it the main village. First, Luo Feng village was at a higher level. And secondly, Luo Feng village has its own territory bonus, which wasn’t something that every field station will have.

The voice sounded again: “The main village had been successfully set up. Xianghe village will now become an affiliated station to Luo Feng village. Please specify the mayor and vice-mayor for Xianghe village within an hour, and set up the appropriate permissions. Otherwise the rules will automatically select the mayor and vice-mayor for Xianghe village from the professions, with full administrative permissions to the station. ”

Cheng Yang couldn’t help but cursed a few bad words. However, luckily he was already prepared for this situation, or else picking the candidates within an hour could be very troublesome.

Because Cheng Yang was well aware what a pain in the ass it would be if the rules had decided the candidates. Once the rules randomly selected the candidates, then even the Lord can’t change it. The permissions also can’t be changed. Unless the mayor and vice-mayor picked by the rules died, otherwise this will become a foregone conclusion.

What are the advantages of occupying an affiliated station? Cheng Yang wasn’t very clear, but he knows that in the affiliated stations that there was also the Lord’s exclusive reward, grace. Although the effect was fairly weakened, but in the end it was still retained.

Divine Mercy (pseudo): After every three levels promotion of the station, the station manager will get the opportunity to improve the strength by a minor order.

Compared with Luo Feng village lord’s exclusive reward, the role of grace for affiliated station no doubt weakened by three times. In fact, Cheng Yang can also allow others to occupy Xianghe village field station, so that they can directly enjoy the exclusive reward of being a Lord. However, Cheng Yang didn’t intend to do so. You can call him selfish or not thinking about the overall situation, but in any case, he had already made such a decision. After experiencing the days of the apocalypse in his last life, in this life he didn’t want anything to drift outside of his control.

Of course, maybe some people will say why not let Yu Kai or Liu Hao become the lord of Xianghe village, and then after the station upgrade a few levels transfer or occupy it back. In this way, the benefits can be received, and the control of Xianghe village will also be in Cheng Yang’s hands.

However, if the gods left such a big loophole behind, they wouldn’t be called gods.

Speaking of this rule, it can be said to be the Lord’s advantages and constraints. The lord’s’ personal strength, the biggest advantage came from the lord’s exclusive reward grace, because each time the territory was promoted a level, the lord’s strength can enhance by a minor order. If this was accumulated over a long period of time, then Lord will be the most powerful person in the entire territory.

While the lords can enjoy such privileges, but at the same time they were greatly restricted. Because once the lord loses their territory, their status as lord will disappear. All the benefits received from being a Lord will then be gone. One of the most obvious changes will be from the loss of strength obtained from grace.

This rule was very cruel, because it was based on the number of time your strength was upgraded from the status of being a Lord. Based on your current strength, the strength reduction can be from high to low. Here is a simple example, a person obtained two graces, and then use it to upgrade to high-order apprentice. Then, after six months of diligently cultivating, finally broke through to first peak-order apprentice. However, at this time their territory was lost, and their status as lord disappears. Then, that person will directly dropped from first peak-order apprentice to first medium-order apprentice. Imagine the effort it would take to go from first medium-order to first high-medium order, then compared that with the effort needed from first high-order to first peak-order. Between those two, the amount of effort needed pretty much doubled.

Therefore, while the lords received a huge amount of benefits, but at the same time they also bear a greater risk. On that road, you either succeed or die trying.

Corresponding with this rule, even if the territory was to become someone else’s affiliated station, and the status of lord changed to affiliated station’s manager, the strength reduction will be based on the number of grace, which will remain only one-third of the original. Therefore, if Cheng Yang let other people occupy this station now, he wasn’t taking care of them, but instead causing them harm.

However, compared with the lords, the affiliated station’s managers, while not able to enjoy the advantages of being as strong as the lords from grace, but the corresponding constraints will be much smaller. First of all, as long as the station has not been completely destroyed, then the benefits of the affiliated station’s manager won’t disappear. Even if that person was removed from the post or the affiliated station was occupied by other forces.

The above rules were proven in the previous apocalypse, so Cheng Yang made this decision after careful deliberation.

The candidates for mayor and vice-mayor for Xianghe village, Cheng Yang had already decided. This was the reasons why he bring along Liu Hao with him today.

For a long time now, Cheng Yang felt very grateful to Liu Hao. Although it was only a matter that occurred in his last life, and hasn’t happened in this life, but deep down in his heart, Cheng Yang regarded Liu Hao as his brother. This sentiment, compared with Yu Kai and Niu Bing was slightly deeper.

Of course, these matters he will not say out loud. Anyway, the future of Luo Feng village won’t only have one affiliated station. Their only difference will be who will become the affiliated station manager first.

Liu Hao was worthy of being the mayor of Xianghe village. As for the vice-mayor, he named Liu Hao team’s vice captain, Cai Chengtian. He was a forty years old middle aged man, and came from the first batch of refugees that Cheng Yang and the others rescued back from Huimin town.
