Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 9: Mysterious Barrier Area_1

With the introductions complete and the other common subordinates assigned to continue the centralized logging work,

Leo Ray led Taylor and the other four captains into the guest hall of the Lord's Mansion.

This place was a suitable choice for a conference room as well.

"Taylor, how is the scouting situation?"

As soon as everyone was seated, Leo Ray at the head of the table immediately asked.

"Reporting to my Lord, I expanded the scouting range to about three kilometers around the camp,"

Taylor stood up, cupped his fists, and said, "This time, I've indeed gathered a lot of information."

Through Taylor's description, Leo Ray learned that within a 3-kilometer radius centering the territory,

To the north, there were continuous mountain ranges with steep and dangerous terrain.

As for the other three directions, apart from a rapid river spanning about 100 meters in the west,

The rest of the area was all covered by dense forest vegetation.

There were more than a dozen small and large demon beast lairs scattered throughout, with the highest strength being Tier 2, but they posed no threat.

Other less threatening wild beasts and common animals were even more abundant,

Along with the rich natural resources such as wild fruits and vegetables, making the area very fertile.

Lastly, no other human forces had been discovered so far.

"So that's how it is. You've worked hard."

After listening to Taylor's report, Leo Ray, who already had a clear understanding, nodded thoughtfully.

The north and west of the territory had natural barriers that served as protection.

Moreover, judging from the current situation,

They wouldn't need to worry about food and water sources for a short period.

This place was undoubtedly an excellent location to develop.

"By the way, my Lord, there's one more thing,"

Just as Leo Ray was considering this, Taylor spoke up again, "About three kilometers southeast of the camp, I sensed faint magical energy fluctuations, which I suspect is a barrier area.

However, since I am a physical class profession, I cannot conduct a more in-depth investigation."

"Magic Barrier?"

On the other side, Gavin Sullivan rubbed his chin and pondered, "I remember hearing the village elders say when I was young that they accidentally sailed to a barrier area called The Peach Garden.

According to him, these magic barrier areas were generally inhabited by some secluded races who didn't want to be disturbed, or it might be the location of a mysterious treasure."

"That's right." Taylor nodded in agreement, "I can vaguely feel that this barrier has been here for a long time and should not pose a threat to us.

If my Lord wishes to further investigate, it's necessary to use the power of magic to unravel it."

"Understood. Since it's not a significant threat, let's wait for new colleagues who specialize in magic to join us before deciding."

After a brief thought, Leo Ray continued, "Lastly, let's repeat today's task—clear all the trees around the Lord's Mansion.

Taylor, you can rest for a bit, and then join in the tree-clearing work. Feel free to work at your own pace."

"Yes, sir!" The five people at the lower table stood up and responded in unison.

Just as everyone was about to turn around and go to work, Leo Ray added, "Let everyone work harder to finish early so we can have dinner. Tonight, we'll have roasted meat, and it's unlimited."

Upon hearing the words "roasted meat, unlimited," Taylor's expression was relatively normal, while Gavin Sullivan and the others had ecstatic faces, hurriedly agreed, and rushed out to inform the others.

Life in their village was tough, with poverty, drought, and constant war making a full meal a luxury, let alone eating large amounts of meat.

Shortly after, a cheering sound of "Long live the Lord!" came from outside the Lord's Mansion.

Feeling somewhat surprised, Leo Ray looked out through the window and saw everyone swinging their logging axes to cut down trees with full force.

On the other side, Taylor didn't rest and instead directly found an unoccupied area, pushed out a palm, and a large number of trees around him fell instantly, as though he was a human bulldozer.

"The terror of a Tier 5 powerhouse!"

Witnessing this, Leo Ray couldn't help but marvel and give a silent thumbs-up to Taylor's figure.

Returning to his chair, Leo Ray first took a sip of water, then reopened the chat channel.

At this time, food was still the absolute theme.And, somewhat amusingly, ever since that lord who claimed to be poor had successfully "cast a spell" to summon the big shot.

Now in the chat channel, various copycat phenomena have appeared, all summoning bigshots and seeking freebies.

"Purple-Gold Gourd here! Master Leo, I'm calling you out, do you dare to accept?!"

"Master Leo, I'm your long-lost sister. Mom says we should go home for dinner. Hurry up and come out! (blowing kisses)"

"Master Leo, can you add a bit more meat? Even if the price is higher, I'm willing!"

"Stop, stop, those above us, our respected Master Leo, how could he possibly raise the prices? Is he that kind of person?"

"Bara-lala energy! Dynamic Lightwave! Summon Anonymous Bigshot!"

"１qHn2Ha! Yàm noa This mifu bigboss up gì, give me fǔ臥橕頡ǐ tower, ?ǐɡêǐ!"

...

Seeing the strange gentleman appearing again, Leo Ray slightly curled his lips and didn't plan to reply.

But at this moment, a piece of news caught his attention.

"Miracle Building Blueprint, exchange for a Tier 1 Recruitment Order, just one will do!"

"Huh? Has this guy's brain been flooded?"

"If there was even a peanut, it wouldn't be so drunk."

"Exactly, having an extra subordinate means having one more source of strength and hope for survival, who would trade their life for your blueprint?"

"That's right, what a joke, I can barely support myself, what's the use of this broken blueprint for me?"

...

"I'll take it. Private message me."

Amidst the crowd's jeers and sarcasm, a brief message instantly silenced the entire chat channel.

However, once everyone read the name in front of the short message, the atmosphere in the chat channel instantly changed by 180 degrees.

"It turns out that Master Leo has arrived! Cheer crazily for the big shot! Brothers, brush those bullet screens!"

"Hehe, Master Leo has the vision and foresight. I admire him so much!"

"Is this how grand the big shots are? Love it!"

"Big brother Master Leo, you're the brightest guy in this world! (heart)"

"By the way, where's that strange little brother? Master Leo has already given you face twice, hahaha!"

...

Looking at the content constantly being brushed in the chat channel, Leo Ray smiled with satisfaction.

It seems that after a series of previous operations, his name is now well known to everyone.

That being said, for others, a Tier 1 Recruitment Order is of course incredibly precious.

However, for Leo Ray, who still has nearly 60 idle orders in his warehouse, it's obviously not very valuable.

Moreover, because the mansion has been upgraded to level 3, he can get at least four more every day.

By then, using the Golden Finger to upgrade would only increase the number, not decrease it.

But the Miracle Building Blueprint is different.

According to the knowledge surging through his mind, Leo Ray learned.

That this item is a genuine and extremely rare item.

After successfully constructing it, like the Lord's Mansion, it would be considered a special kind of building.

It can have various benefits and amplifying effects on the territory.

However, at this stage, since everyone is struggling to survive, its true value has not been revealed.

With this in mind, Leo Ray couldn't help but show a puzzled expression.

Normally, these Miracle Building Blueprints should be extremely difficult to obtain and extremely rare, with many being unique.

Naturally, it's not possible to obtain them like in games where people can be sent out to search and have a chance of finding them.

So how did the other party manage to obtain this ultra-rare item within less than a day of starting the game?
