After thinking for a while, Zhou Zhou chose to upgrade Phantom Cage to Diamond-tier.
'The need for promotion energy still remains essential.'
He mused as he began the upgrade.
[Lord talents has be chosen]
[Upgrading in progress...]
.
[Lord talent upgraded successfully!]
[Lord Talent: Blessing of the Ten Gods—Blessing of the War God (Diamond-tier)]
[Blessing of the War God: You and your military professionals will obtain an additional 3,000% promotion energy after killing an enemy!]
.
[Lord talent upgraded successfully!]
[Lord Talent: Phantom Cage (Diamond-tier)]
[Phantom Cage: During battle, the phantom cage talent is activated to seize all promotion energy in the battlefield.]
[Effect One: The lord talent can be activated by using yourself, your subjects or anyone you've marked as a medium.]
[Hint: You can only mark those you have a connection with.]
[Effect Two: Range of the phantom cage is 50,000km². The range can increase with the growth of the lord talent's tier.]
[Effect Three: Promotion energy absorbed by the Phantom Cage is Quintupled.]
[Effect Four: You can use the seized promotion energy to raise your strength or the strength of your combat professionals.]
.
"There's a change."
He muttered after reading the details of the upgraded phantom cage.
Getting a new sensation related to the lord talent, he focused on it.
"So, that's what it means to have a connection."
He saw a battlefield filled with an uncountable number of titans and scarlet monsters killing each other once he focused on the new sensation.
Following his intuition, he picked the strongest titan and scarlet monster as his targets to mark.
"Their chances of surviving the war are high."
To his expectation, numerous notifications began rolling down his view after marking Saifen and Wuxin.
[Phantom Cage: 1,800 promotion energy has been absorbed!]
[The promotion energy has been quintupled! 9,000 promotion energy has been absorbed!]
.
[Phantom Cage: 6,000 promotion energy has been absorbed!]
[The promotion energy has been quintupled! 30,000 promotion energy has been absorbed!]
.
"A pity the Blessing of War God doesn't affect those who aren't my subjects."
Confirming the effect of the upgraded phantom cage, Zhou Zhou sent a message to Zhao Changshou, requesting him to mobilize the entire Sunstone Guild to build 150 additional monster ranches.
'I will need to conquer more regions if I want to continue upgrading the monster ranch lord talent.'
He thought in silence as he teleported to the Dreamland Tower.
Arriving within the first floor, he pulled up the lord talent's details.
[Lord Talent: Dreamland (White platinum-tier)]
[Dreamland: Your territory has been chosen by the newly birthed Dreamland Tower]
[Lord Talent Effect: You and your subjects can utilize the dreamland to experience what you desire]
[Hint 1: Users can only stay in the dreamland for 4 hours]
[Hint 2: Users are solely responsible for whatever dream they experience]
[Hint 3: Whatever users learn and feel in the dreamland will have an effect in reality. Be careful]
[Hint 4: Dream's effect has been upgraded by an additional 15%]
[Dream's effect on reality is 30%]
"So, this is why we couldn't gain past 15% of what the Hall of Truth gives."
He brought down his lord interface as he inspected the first floor of the tower.
"Seems the upgrade has no effect on the physical aspect of the tower."
Seeing no increase to the number of beds or size of the floor, he concluded.
With twenty minutes left before the break ends, he chose the closest bed and went into his dream.
.
"How's your day going?"
Taking a bite from the meat in his hand, Sun Can asked his fiancee.
"Hectic."
Swallowing the rice in her mouth, Bertha responded.
"Oh… Now I'm interested."
Sun Can kept his fork down after hearing a different response compared to those in the past.
"A foreign merchant visited us today to discuss a business deal. After coming to an agreement, Miss Vivian instructed us to speed up our production in order to meet up with the demand."
"Due to that, I've been sewing non-stop for three hours."
Bertha complained with fatigue clearly visible on her face.
"It also goes to show how good the works of you and your colleagues are."
Sun Can smiled in a bid to encourage Bertha.
Bertha pouted in response.
.
'If the effect of the dreamland increases with each upgrade, won't it rival the Hall of Truth at a higher tier?'
Zhou Zhou thought after experiencing the effect of the White platinum-tier Dreamland Tower.
"However, it's all due to my first lord talent. Without it, the dreamland tower can only remain as a Yellow gold-tier lord talent."
He said as he traced the result to the source.
Teleporting away from the floor, he appeared in the war-room.
"My lord."
Bai Yung and Lu Chong bowed in greeting.
"Let's begin."
Zhou Zhou said to his soldiers as he activated the option to matchup.
While that was occurring, notifications regarding his promotion energy continued streaming in.
