Chapter 2: Dominating the World System
"See Your Highness." Meng Li had just walked to the front of his Qinghe Hall when the palace maids and eunuchs rushed to kneel down and pay their respects.
He faintly said a sentence, without even looking at him, and directly walked into the hall. Meng Li thought for a moment, seemingly unfamiliar with everything, so he walked towards his own bedroom where he had just "awakened".
As soon as I entered the bedroom, Xiao Ruo came forward and gave a curtsy, singing "Greetings to Your Highness".
"Stay back, you two." He said to the two eunuchs behind him after he got up and turned around.
"Yes." He bowed his head and quickly walked out the door, closing it behind him. Everything was in order, leaving Meng with a refreshing feeling, as if someone had suddenly invited him to eat seafood on a sweltering summer day.
But when it comes to one's own life, I still have to ask Xiaoyao for some verification. In this foggy Beijing, we can only proceed with caution and be more careful.
"Xiao Ruo, can the king not grant a royal title?" The first question was about his own name. If this kingdom did not have a royal title, he would be among the highest ranks, and it would naturally be convenient for him to act.
"Yes, the king's highest reward is the 19th rank of marquis, and the 20th rank is an imperial reward for non-royal but great contributors' hereditary title. Also known as duke." The little one who relied on this amnesiac master replied carefully.
In the process of seeking proof from Xiao Ruo, Meng Li came to realize that his own path was quite large, with a total of nine paths in the kingdom. The Yan Nan Path borders the Southern Xiongnu Department. Under his command is an important position, namely the Protector of the Xiongnu Middle Lang General. He can mobilize 100,000 cavalrymen from the surrendered Xiongnu people. His own army also has 8,000 brave soldiers guarding the Yan Men Guan Pass, with a momentum that one man can hold off 10,000 men. The Yan Nan Path's regular army also has nearly 30,000 troops. However, an average path is roughly the size of a province during the Han Dynasty, with a population of over 60 million people. These 30,000 troops are scattered throughout the cities and towns for defense, and in reality, there aren't many men available for him to mobilize at will.
But that's not right, such a large territory is also a military strategic location, how could it be divided and given to this prince whose mother has already fallen in the palace struggle?
Then asked again about his mother and his own situation. Meng Li suddenly understood everything.
When his mother was alive, he was extremely favored and even had the momentum to be promoted as a prince. However, his mother was secretly harmed during pregnancy, which led to both him and his mother being in poor health after birth. The emperor liked this, so when his mother received more favor, she was directly killed. "He" himself also fell seriously ill for three months and eventually died. This emperor probably felt guilty towards his mother and favored him, so he gave him a big red envelope as a gift.
So, can I get to the seal land? The tiger-like princes and ministers will leave this fat meat on me, a prince who has nothing after death. This is probably what the emperor is worried about.
"Ding, congratulations player on triggering the 'Unmatched Under Heaven' system."
"Drip, trigger growth mission, dominate the world, and make this vast continent your own territory. Mission time limit: Unlimited. Mission reward: Tianxia Cangkong Changshoujian (skill). Under this sky, a thought can annihilate any living being. Mission failure: Eradication."
"Drip, trigger the first stage mission, turn all conspiracies into dust, and safely arrive at the sealed land. Mission time limit: 1 month. Mission reward: Randomly draw a famous general-level warrior once. Mission failure: Eradication."
"Drops, as players receive quest rewards for the first time, a random general is drawn once and an advisor is randomly drawn once. No level limit."
All I could hear was the sound of "ding ding ding" echoing in my mind over and over again. Meng Li was stunned, did he also have a Golden Finger system? Haha, finally, I'm not ordinary anymore. Dominating the world? It sounds pretty good, even if I get killed, it's no big deal, I'll definitely die before being sealed away. When a man dies, the birds fly towards the sky, and if he doesn't die, he'll live for ten thousand years. I, Meng Li, can also ask about the pinnacle of power in this world!
Deeply influenced by online novels, Meng Li knew that the summoning system could be activated with just a thought in his mind, so he called out, "System".
"Drip, Tianxia system is pleased to serve player 9527." The electronic prompt tone. What real technology.
"System, can I now extract the military general and strategist?" Meng Li asked anxiously at this moment. Because his life was in danger every day. Urgently needed the protection of the military general and the planning of the strategist.
"Drops can be obtained. As the player draws the system reward for the first time, Lucky Value +2 is added. At the same time, Eagle Eye (skill) is given away, which allows viewing NPC's attribute panel (no consumption)."
"What is Luck Value?" For Meng Li who was possessed by the system for the first time, the system represented strength and high energy.
"Warriors with full value of martial arts are 100, and according to the data, they are divided into: not entering the flow (60-), third-rate (60~70), second-rate (70~80), first-rate (80~90), famous far and wide (90~95), and world civilization (95~100). Lucky value +2 is the lowest that can draw a second-rate warrior. Strategists are the same."
"This is equivalent to a newbie's welcome package! This system really gives its all!"
For the first time being possessed, Meng Lie thought that although the system was powerful, it was also very frustrating. So when he got this "Newbie Gift Pack", Meng Lie was excited to have gotten a "good" system for himself.
"Well, let's draw a general then." I hope I can draw Lü Bu, Xiang Yu, or Yan Ming this kind of fierce warrior. Riding alone for a thousand miles, Guan Gong is also okay, send me a stable one.
Only to see the system's large wheel 6 different sizes of their own instant lost the largest two, followed by the next four are enlarged in turn.
Only saw the needle of the meter starting to slide slowly "The world's civilization, I went, passed, heard far and wide, stopped. Wiped, a flow also made do."
"Ding, congratulations player 9527 for drawing a second-rate martial general White Robe Young General. The general is on the way..."
"I'll go, and with one glance at the mediocre white-robed young general, he won't be the captivating Commander Dragon anymore. Who could it be?" Meng Li was entangled in thoughts of which one among so many white-robed young generals in history when the eunuch in front of the palace came to report: "Your Highness, General Chen has returned from his inspection tour and is here to report."
"General Chen? Who is this?" After thinking for half a day, Meng Li decided not to bother with this question anymore. If he couldn't figure it out, then so be it! "Have him come in."
A general with a white robe and a clear face walked up in big strides, clasped his fists and saluted, saying "I have seen Your Highness, I have returned from my patrol."
"Hmm" He faintly responded with a soft voice, quietly using the Eagle Eye skill. The attribute panel of General Chen then appeared in Meng Li's mind.
Character: Chen Qingzhi (Zi Yun)
Second-rate
Accuracy: 98
Strength: 78
Intelligence: 86
Politics: 76
Affinity: 70
Skills:
Ride of the Gods (As a Ride of the Gods, he uses cavalry to reach an unparalleled level in the world, increasing the combat power of all cavalry by 200%.)
Inspiration (As a model who has fought 500,000 troops with 7,000 cavalry, his morale is increased by 200%.)
White Horse (Enhances the speed and shooting power of the cavalry by 80%.)
Resume: System output, must be a masterpiece. Praised as "Every general is self-improving, thousands of troops and horses avoid the white robe."
After finishing the attribute panel, Meng Li took a deep breath. Chen Qing, as a famous general of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, was praised by poets for his cavalry tactics, which were considered invincible. It seems that this system also has loopholes, as it only looks at martial arts to divide, and strategists probably look at intelligence division. In Meng Li's view, Chen Qing was an invincible existence when commanding cavalry, and few could match him.
"Zi Yun, hurry up and get up. With Zi Yun back, I can rest assured." Unlike the inexplicable expression earlier, Meng Li now looked at Chen Qing with a smile like a seductive little friend. This was his guarantee for future life. Once he got to the territory and gave him some cavalry, Chen Qing would be like a small cow flying an airplane, amazing! At that time, giving him one cavalry would allow him to destroy a country for me. Good brother, live well and eat well.
"Drip, General Chen Qing's favorability +10"
"I swear to be loyal to Your Highness unto death." Chen Qing didn't know his own identity after the system refreshed. At this moment, he was just a nameless small soldier. When Meng Li wanted him to take an oath of loyalty, he thought to himself "You treat me as a national scholar, I will repay you as a national scholar". Unbeknownst to him, the ruthless Meng Li was considering how to make him play his role to the greatest extent possible. Can't waste any resources.
"Your Highness, shall we depart?" Meng Li, who was lost in thought about his life after Chen Qing's death using the method of a dead donkey, was suddenly snapped out of his reverie by this sentence.
"Hmm, wait a minute, we still need to wait for one more colleague." Your martial arts skills are nothing but mediocre in front of an expert. Who knows if there's some hidden master in this world, let's get another strategist to analyze it for us.
"System, summon strategist."
Only 4 grids of the dial are left. It started spinning.
We now need high intelligence, and even higher politics is useless at this time.
The turntable is spinning again, I don't care about the civilization of the world, it's okay if it's famous in the past, first-class is enough!!
"Huh? I'm going~, is it that powerful?" Full of excitement. The needle only stopped at a small place called "famous all over the world".
"Ding, congratulations player 9527 for drawing a renowned strategist, the strategist is on their way..."
It doesn't matter who it is, no picking or choosing. Now we are like this. Hmph. Those with an IQ of over 90 can make a difference.
"Report, Your Highness,"
"Bring him in!" Full of excitement! Who could it be?
This eunuch left with a sullen face to pass on the order, but I haven't even finished speaking yet. You just know someone has come to summon him.
"I have come under your orders, Your Highness." A young man wearing a linen robe and carrying a long sword walked in, bowed his hands and said.
No need to say more, let's take a look at this strategist's attribute panel first.
Xu Shou (Yuan Zhi)
Famous far and wide
Intelligence: 91
Strength: 70
Commander: 30
Politics: 70
Affinity: 70
Skill: Insight (can perceive all enemy movements in case of intelligence. In the absence of intelligence, the probability of insight is 50%)
Resume: System production, must be a masterpiece. Top-notch intelligent strategist can help players dominate the world better.
Wow, this is quite famous. This skill is a bit of a letdown. Just one skill and it has a failure rate. 70 attack power is indeed not bad, might as well use him as a general. I just hope his probability doesn't happen now, if it does, I'll be in trouble.
Suddenly, Meng Li discovered that Xu Shu had another dark skill under his personal bottom. Just now, he took a glance at it vaguely and saw it.
Recommendation (Seal, for every 10-point increase in Xu Shu's favorability, he can recommend a close friend to join the player).
Wow, what a great move! Recruiting Xu Shu is like getting a strategist gift package. Now let's think about how to increase his favorability.
In Xushu's view, at this moment Meng Li was staring at him lightly, as if he had no feeling towards him.
"Drop, Strategist Xu Shu's favorability -5"
Suddenly, Meng Li hurriedly walked forward and grasped Xu Shu's arms with both hands, laughing loudly. "Yuanshi has returned, I am honored! How have you been these days? Would you condescend to be our military advisor?"
"Drip, Xu Shu's favorability +10." Only after hearing this pleasant sound did Xu Shu open his mouth to say. "Thank you, Your Highness! I will definitely repay your kindness with a humble heart!"
Little did they know, Meng Li's heart was bleeding at this moment. If it weren't for his own foolishness, another great god would have arrived, and Xu Shu's friends couldn't be any worse, right? Moreover, Xu Shu's attitude at this time was clearly a bit worse than Chen Qing's. Would the good feeling decrease and people not be able to run away?
"Drops below 60 affection will cause characters to leave the player and wait for the next summon."
"Alright, I've resigned myself to it. With this system in place, I can also try out the grand scene of having a constant stream of brave generals and wise strategists like Cao Cao did back in his southern campaign days. And what's more, I have even higher-end ones here." Meng Li couldn't help but think about how his vanguard was led by Lü Bu, Ruan Yu, Xiang Yu and others, while his chief strategist included Zhang Liang, Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, Liu Ji and the like. As for Guan Yu, do you know your mother? Go be a horse archer or something!
