Chapter 321: The Territory Dungeon is Complete
September 25th, 2017
The exterior of the Territory Dungeon building resembles a colossal gateway.
This massive gate stands approximately ten meters tall and five meters wide, an impressive sight even from a distance.
Territory Dungeon
Building Type: Mystic/Military Structure

This is the basic information about the Territory Dungeon, presented in a rather simplistic manner.
However, as Lu Haikong selects the purchase option, the information about the dungeon becomes significantly more detailed.

Lu Haikong notices that these purchasable dungeons are all ones he has experienced before. Only the dungeons he has cleared will appear on this price list.
He is unsure if there are any differences in strength or drop rates between the dungeons and the ones he has encountered, but the reset times of these dungeons are significantly shorter than the system refresh times, which piques his interest.
The prices, however, are a bit steep. Although the Mega Fort costs a whopping 1 million gold, Lu Haikong is quite willing to spend it, but he worries that Wang Jun's heart might not be able to take the shock.
Lu Haikong calculates that purchasing all the dungeons would cost around 143,300 gold, and considering the potential future maintenance costs, he estimates that this building will be Wang Jun's most painful expense.
"Money is useless if you don't spend it. Why can't Wang Jun understand this?"
Lu Haikong sighs as he opens the price list and purchases all the dungeons. At that moment, he hears a crisp sound, like glass shattering, which seems to be the sound of Wang Jun's heart breaking.
After buying all the dungeons in one go, the gateway in the light circle seems to have gained some more intricate patterns.
Looking at the gate within the light circle, Lu Haikong feels a surge of excitement. The effect of the Territory Dungeon is even better than he had anticipated.
By purchasing all the dungeons, he can now clear the Mega Fort, four large-scale forts, three medium-sized forts, and three small-scale forts. The smaller ones can be ignored, but the larger ones are sufficient to upgrade the Elite Guard Battalion to the Elite level and bring the Black Gale Legion one step closer to their goal.
However, Lu Haikong's first thought is not about these two enhanced forces. Their combat strength has already improved, and their true potential has yet to be fully realized. With complete equipment, their fighting prowess could reach an even higher level.
After leveling up, further progress wasn't as straightforward. At most, they could all reach the 【Elite】 level and then sweep through all the dungeons again, but their strength might not improve much.
So, it was better to take this opportunity to enhance the overall military strength of the bandit camp.
Recently, Lu HaiKong had been considering combining the First and Second Battalions to create a legion.
The First Battalion, established by Lu HaiKong on a whim, specialized in archers, making them decent at long-range attacks but nearly useless in close combat.
On the other hand, the Second Battalion, composed entirely of indigenous NPCs, was more versatile. They were competent in both melee and ranged combat, and some could even fight on horseback.
The Second Battalion was the most unique force under Lu HaiKong's command, rivaling any other unit, and their growth potential surpassed even that of advanced units.
Over the past few months, the Second Battalion had produced many talented individuals, with some soldiers' Strength breaking forty. However, this team had never been a priority for Lu HaiKong until recently, when he gradually started to change his mind.
As the Second Battalion grew stronger, Lu HaiKong couldn't justify leaving them idle any longer.
The Second Battalion's increasing strength even made Lu HaiKong consider forming a legion purely of indigenous NPCs. But upon further thought, he deemed it unrealistic. After careful consideration, Lu HaiKong decided to merge the First and Second Battalions.
Lu HaiKong envisioned a legion combining indigenous and data NPCs, with a significant infusion of members from the Fire Word Regiment. He also planned to supplement the legion with elite bandit blade fighters or spear-wielding bandits from the large fort. With the establishment of the territory dungeon, Lu HaiKong intended to use the Medium Legion Formation Order to create a medium-sized legion.
However, there was one issue with forming a legion: the commanders.
A medium-sized legion required five commanders. Wang Yi from the Fire Word Regiment was one, Zhang Yi from the First Battalion was another, and Cheng Yi, the recently subdued commander from the Elite Bandit Guard, was the third. That left two more spots to fill.
The previous leader of the Second Battalion was Lu HaiKong himself, but during his absence, the battalion was overseen by a man named Tie Li, who was quite capable in military management, though his Strength was lacking, falling just short of sixty, making him only an aspiring commander.
After much thought, Lu HaiKong decided to bring out Dynasty Wang, whose efforts he had noticed. That left one final spot.
Lu HaiKong's bandit camp had no shortage of commanders with Strength over sixty, but for this last position, he didn't want just anyone to fill the numbers. He sought someone who could genuinely contribute to the legion, someone who could tangibly enhance its strength—in other words, a soul-stirring figure for the legion.
After much deliberation, Lu HaiKong initially considered recalling Zhao Er, but ultimately abandoned the idea.
It was clear to Lu HaiKong that Zhao Er was better suited for cavalry than infantry, and he had been considering grooming Zhao Er as a potential commander for the Black Gale Legion. Naturally, he couldn't recall Zhao Er at this time.
"In that case, I can only call him out. It's been half a year; it's time for him to make an appearance."
