Lord Of The People: I Have Countless Territorial Traits

Chapter 187-189

Chapter 187: Upgrade the Territory! Announcement on the World Channel! 

"Sold fast enough."

Lu Qing couldn't help but smile at the speed of his sales. He had anticipated that his 30,000 Saint Mang Hearts would go quickly, considering the market's high demand, but to see them all sold in just a quarter of an hour exceeded his expectations.

With a mix of excitement and curiosity, he opened the transaction details for his booth. The numbers that appeared were astonishing.

Black Iron-level Soul Cores: 7,623,000!
Bronze-level Soul Cores: 520,200!
Silver-level Soul Cores: 21,750!
Shengmang Heart Crafting Materials: 150,000!

"Impressive!" he thought, nodding to himself. Initially, he had traded 300 million black iron-level soul cores for a million crafting materials for the Shengmang Heart. Now, after just selling 30,000 finished products, he had recouped a third of his material costs! This meant that with the sale of just 90,000 more Saint Mang Hearts, he would be in the clear. Everything beyond that would be pure profit.

"Blood earns!" he mused, his excitement bubbling over as he realized he also had accumulated a hefty stash of crafting materials for the Shengmang Heart.

Glancing at the number of 150,000, he couldn't help but chuckle. This integer indicated that none of the lords who purchased his hearts had opted for the first payment method. All of them chose to trade crafting materials plus soul cores instead.

"Now that everyone’s opened their first-day survival treasure chests, they must have plenty of those materials," Lu Qing surmised. "And most of them probably can't use them, which is why they’re trading for finished products."

He decided to pass all these materials to Jiang Chen and the others to keep crafting the Shengmang Hearts. As long as lords at the bronze level or above could still be found, the Shengmang Heart would maintain its hot-selling status!

After that, he shifted his focus to the limited-time lord survival store for the fourth day. He took out all the survival point tokens he had earned in the Temple of Wisdom and converted them into survival points.

With a satisfying click, Lu Qing saw his total: 67,120 survival points!

"Time to grab those Great Wall blueprint fragments!" he declared, immediately spending 25,000 survival points to acquire the third fragment of the Great Wall racial miracle architectural blueprint. He followed that up with another 5,000 points to purchase the permission for the origin continent map.

With a total of 30,000 survival points spent, he was ready to explore the rewards.

The map authority was represented by a golden scroll. Curious, Lu Qing opened it, but found it blank at first. Just as he began to feel puzzled, the scroll disintegrated into countless golden specks and melded into his body.

A golden prompt appeared before him:
[Congratulations on opening the source map permission!]
[In your origin map, explored areas will remain free of chaotic black fog, although you can only see the general terrain; however, within your territory, you can directly view details of any public area.]

Lu Qing's eyes widened in realization. "So it's like having a satellite view!"

"Open the map," he commanded.

In the next instant, a square virtual map materialized before him, entirely black, with nothing visible—except for three distinct sections separated by dashed lines:

Outer Kingdom Area!
Central Empire Region!
Inner Divine Region!

A dotted line labeled "Wall of the Moat" formed the boundary between the three areas. Lu Qing examined the wall closely, learning that it was a safety measure preventing powerful countries from invading weaker ones and vice versa, allowing low-level countries to develop more securely.
