It seems that Zong Shen wants to conquer Doris and max out her Loyalty, but he's probably going to have to put in more effort.
However, being able to increase her Loyalty by 8 points isn't bad. At least it's not like throwing a steamed bun to a dog.
"Keep up the hard work, you're a girl with great potential."
"I hope you can grow together with the Territory."
Zong Shen encouraged her as usual, not caring if it would be effective or not, the ritual can't be omitted.
Perhaps it was because she received rewards from Zong Shen, this time Doris nodded cooperatively and held the Magic Staff in her hands, examining it with delight.
As a Tier Three Fire Mage, Rare Level equipment is still quite rare.
Pax stood by with a face full of envy, while Favide sympathetically patted his shoulder.
Back then, he came through the same way, watching Tasuya and Aisha change outfits, feeling quite envious. But ultimately, he earned Zong Shen's appreciation through his own efforts and now possesses two pieces of Rare Level equipment, becoming a role model in the team.
Currently, Favide has already summoned two Two-headed Hellhounds through Slaughter Points, one assisting in dealing with the Ghostly Demoness at the frontline, while the other patrols freely on the outskirts of the Territory.
Unconsciously, this guy has also gradually secured a spot in the Territory.
So he can quite understand Pax. We men can't compare with women, especially since Doris is such a talented girl. Only through hard work, becoming a model worker, can we hope to stand out.
Zong Shen actually has a balance in his heart; he never overlooks Warriors with strong capabilities and significant contributions. These Warriors will eventually become his elite and core team.
And his goal is to cultivate the original core team, just like now. Even though Doris's talent far exceeds Favide's, Zong Shen still entrusts the leadership of the Fire Mages to Favide. The reason is simple: Favide is honest and more reliable.
Eventually, when he gathers more Fire Mages, he can organize them into an independent squad.
This is just a microcosm of the future Territory situation.
After handing over both Magic Staffs, Zong Shen was preparing to organize the team when the Communication Crystal on his chest lit up, displaying Communication Request No. 5.
This was Wenresa's Communication Crystal. Every time she proactively contacted Zong Shen, it meant there was a new situation at the Burrow Frontline.
Zong Shen chose to connect, and soon Wenresa's voice came through the Crystal.
"Sir, please come to the frontline position."
"We've captured a bizarre Burrow Lord alive!"
Goodness, Zong Shen thought he'd misheard. A Burrow Lord, the absolute ruler commanding a Burrow tribe.
Captured alive just like that by those dozen or so Warriors at the frontline?
Zong Shen was a bit at a loss for words and immediately replied.
"Hold on, I'll bring people over right away."
"Keep a close eye on the Burrow situation to prevent any other accidents."
With that, he hung up the call and headed towards Pigsy, instructing the Exploration Squad's Warriors.
"Everyone, head to the Burrow Frontline right now. I'm riding Pigsy and will go ahead!"
"Additionally, Wolf Cavalry Squad One, come with me. We'll go check out the situation at the frontline first."
Zong Shen took this very seriously, calling on Korby, and bringing Wolf Rider Squad One along to head to the Burrow Frontline first, while the members of the Exploration Squad followed on foot.
Because Zong Shen planned to carry out a hunting operation later, it wasn't suitable for the Exploration Squad's Warriors to travel on horseback.
Zong Shen swiftly issued the orders and rode Pigsy, leading the Wolf Cavalry north.
At full speed, he arrived at the Burrow Frontline in about four or five minutes.
At this time, all the Warriors at the frontline were gathered in a circle, seemingly observing some peculiar thing. In the middle of the crowd, a spiky indigo blue shell was visible.
"I'm here, what's going on?"
"Where's the Burrow Lord?
Zong Shen rode Pigsy to the scene and asked in confusion.
Hearing his voice, the crowd parted, revealing a massive indigo blue shelled insect.
This giant shelled insect was covered with spikes, its heavy shell completely enveloping its body, with the lower half sunk into the ground, resembling an indigo blue boulder.
Its body was wrapped with several laps of Hemp Rope from front to back, including the shell's crevices and joints which were also tied down with the hemp rope.
Both ends were tied to the Elemental Arrow Tower, securing the hemp rope very tightly on the giant bug.
True to Zong Shen's style, the soldiers didn't master much else but certainly excelled in the art of tying robust hemp ropes, pinning down this peculiar giant bug, making it immobile.
Wenresa, holding a Horned Eagle Battle Bow, jumped down from the top of a grass hut, saluted Zong Shen, and pointed at the giant bug, saying to Zong Shen.
"Sir, this is the Burrow Lord we captured alive!"
Zong Shen instinctively nodded and absentmindedly circled around the giant bug.
At the front of this giant bug were two spindle-shaped massive limbs, with the hammerhead as big as a head, seemingly quite powerful, though they were now tied up, almost like a Big Crab in the market.
The front of the giant bug had a rhinoceros beetle-like horn, below which two small eyes glowed red. The eyes alone seemed quite menacing, but coupled with its current restrained state, it looked comically ridiculous.
Zong Shen focused his gaze, and its Attributes were displayed before him.
