Global Lords: I Have Information System-Chapter 571 - 395: Illusion Dream Bracelet, Inheritance of the Desolate Wolf Tribe

Baron Bezos was somewhat distractedly staring at the tabletop.

The actions of Zong Shen were contrary to his usual beliefs.

This was the aspect that troubled him.

To him, Zong Shen was almost a friend for life and death.

This was mostly due to the reason of affinity.

However, Zong Shen's previous performances did indeed suit Baron Bezos's taste.

Not only did Zong Shen recover several items he lost in his youth from those ruins.

Most importantly, he also captured the "Night Demon."

At the same time, he got rid of an old rival of Baron Bezos in Boss Bang.

All of these performances made him greatly admire Zong Shen.

But now, even if his heart leaned towards Zong Shen, he couldn't help but feel some wavering.

Baron Bezos let out a light sigh.

He slowly stood up and walked out of the study.

...

Meanwhile, Zong Shen, who had just sent off Minstrel Englandmu.

As he was about to step into the Lord's Small Tower.

A prompt of an affinity change suddenly appeared before him.

[Baron Bezos's affinity towards you has decreased by 15 points, current affinity 85 points (Deeply Close Friend)]

Zong Shen halted his steps, standing at the entrance of the tower.

His expression didn't waver at all, still maintaining the same relaxed look as before.

In fact, he had already mentally prepared for this.

He even was ready for the affinity to decrease by half.

So when he saw this affinity prompt, he wasn't surprised.

Instead, he felt a slight sense of delight because the decrease in affinity was less than he anticipated.

He was indirectly verifying the power of affinity.

Currently, Zong Shen had come to two conclusions.

The first being that a full affinity can definitely make the other party do things that go against their inherent inclinations.

The second is that the setting of affinity and loyalty is similar; even if it's at full value, there is still a possibility of decrease.

This allowed Zong Shen to have more confidence in using the affinity setting to test the limits of the Indigenous People.

However, achieving full affinity with the Indigenous People wasn't that easy either.

For Baron Bezos to quickly reach full affinity, returning those lost items played a significant role.

In addition to capturing Evans and seizing the real "Night Demon."

This task was also an indispensable factor.

Under normal circumstances, establishing a preliminary friendship with the Indigenous People is quite easy.

But maxing out affinity is not so simple.

Looking at the changes in affinity of the Raven Saintess Shafuri towards Zong Shen makes it clear.

The life-saving grace wasn't even enough to max out the affinity at once.

Moreover, each Indigenous Person has a different personality, and the speed and method of increasing affinity also vary greatly; this aspect can be referenced in Kunyel.

But overall, the setting of affinity and loyalty is definitely considered a "privilege."

This thing, like "Fast Construction," "Personal Storage Grid," and "Lord Dataization," are all truly "privileged" behaviors of the Lord.

Its fundamental purpose is still to lock in the growth cycle of lords.

If there were no such privileges, without the challenges of the Lord System.

A Lord wishing to rise to power and establish a Giant City Level or higher entity.

Would require the efforts of at least a few generations, if not a dozen generations.

In short, the Lord System intentionally prompts lords to rapidly grow.

This speed is compared to the development speed of the Indigenous People.

Ultimately, it's to allow the force of lords to become a new power capable of rivaling the Indigenous People.

"Heh..."

Zong Shen chuckled, shook his head, and no longer paid attention to this issue.

He returned to the long table in the first-floor hall.

Earlier, he had just opened two Silver Treasure Chests.

Now, Zong Shen still had two fortunes in his hands.

One came from the wealth left by Master Mars's ancestors in the cellar.

This wealth included 1,139,726 Mainland Continent Universal Dinar.

And a multitude of flashy jewelry and antiquities.

As for the old wine stored in the cellar until now, Zong Shen selectively ignored it.

That stuff was not constrained by the lord's task.

Zong Shen could keep half of this fortune.

The other half needed to be delivered to Sitanos Village within 5 days, or it would be considered a task failure.

Zong Shen didn't know what the consequences of failing the task would be.

But after all, this was a task restricted and controlled by the Lord System.

There was no need to risk violating the Lord System out of greed.

Of the more than one million Mainland Continent Universal Dinar, Zong Shen acquired half.

That is 569,863 Dinars.

The remaining jewelry and antiquities included a total of 27 items.

Among them were some exquisitely styled trinkets.

For example, a pair of Bauhinia Flower Earrings.

Made using filigree craftsmanship, refined gold was melted into fine threads and rolled into various shapes.

Creating a hollowed-out feel, looking extremely delicate.

In the center, a fish-eye-sized Purple Agate was embedded.

This is a precious purple gemstone.

It can be used as casting materials or to forge magical curiosities and equipment.

However, this pair of Bauhinia Flower Earrings were merely simple jewelry.

They did not employ rune forging techniques, nor did they possess any magic effect.

According to the Lord, that thing didn't belong to the category of jewelry equipment.

But the design was still quite nice, and the craftsmanship very exquisite.

Zong Shen thought of Luna, and if these earrings were worn on her ears, they'd surely be beautiful.

So far, excluding the awarded equipment.

He seemed to have never properly given Luna a gift.

Thinking of this, Zong Shen decided to keep this pair of Bauhinia Flower Earrings.

As Luna's first gift.
