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

Chapter 2: Chapter 2: Divine Talent - Golden Finger_1

"Divine Talent? Golden Finger?"

Startled for a moment, Leo Ray finally showed a surprised and joyful expression.

As a seasoned fan of web novels, he naturally understood the meaning of Golden Finger.

"Could it be that I'm about to take off?"

Thrilled, Leo Ray immediately opened the talent explanation.

[One: Touch specific items to upgrade them.]

[Two: Upgraded items will undergo qualitative or quantitative changes.]

[Three: Each item can only be upgraded once.]

"Wow, this is practically turning stones into gold!"

Closing the explanation, Leo Ray couldn't wait to look at the Tier 1 Recruitment Order in his hand.

Sure enough, beside the two Recruitment Orders, there were three small words saying "Upgradeable" on each.

"Upgrade!"

Without hesitation, Leo Ray focused his mind and chose one of them.

[Due to the first use of this talent, the newcomer's lucky critical effect is triggered! Congratulations, your 'Tier 1 Recruitment Order' has been upgraded to a 'Tier 5 Recruitment Order'!]

"Di...Directly to Tier 5?!"

Looking at the wooden token in his hand, which instantly turned into an incomparably dazzling gold color, Leo Ray was so excited that he nearly soared into the sky.

According to the basic rules that flooded his mind at the beginning, he clearly understood.

In this world, the strength of Tier 1 Subordinates is no different from ordinary people.

But Tier 5 Subordinates can be considered powerful individuals who are renowned far and wide.

The gap between them is obvious.

It's like the difference between a sheep and Godzilla!

With such formidable strength, it's more than enough to deal with the demon beasts in the surrounding areas or even singlehandedly take on an entire organized low-tier army!

"It seems that my talent is a little bit strong..."

Thinking about this, the joy on Leo Ray's face was overflowing, and he directly pressed the use button on the Recruitment Order.

In an instant, a golden gate appeared in front of him out of thin air.

Immediately after, a man with a beard who was at least 2.3 meters tall, strode out from the door.

In just a few steps, even the Lord's Mansion began to tremble.

Looking up at the man's mountain-like robust physique and explosive muscles, Leo Ray exclaimed in admiration.

On Earth before the crossing, only the Hulk in movies could be compared to this strong man!

"Berserker Taylor, greetings, Lord."

Seeing Leo Ray, the man immediately bowed in salute. His rough voice wasn't extremely respectful, but he was sincere and respectful.

There was a faintly imperious air about him in his every move.

"This guy... is really strong!"

Feeling the strong aura around Taylor, Leo Ray, though his face remained calm, was excited inside. He first nodded in response and then checked the other's attributes.

[Name: Taylor]

[Occupation: Berserker]

[Rank: Tier 5 Second Star (The higher the star level, the stronger the strength)]

[Loyalty: 50]

[Skill One: Frenzy 'Active' (Strength skyrockets, enters a weakened state after use)]

[Other skills, unable to view due to insufficient loyalty]

"No wonder he's a Berserker. After Frenzy, his strength might even approach Tier 6!"

Closing the Attribute Column, Leo Ray couldn't help but marvel in secret.

"What are your orders, Lord?" On the other side, Taylor spoke again, and a series of prompts appeared next to him.

Examples include "Standby," "Patrol Territory," "Free Movement," "Perimeter Reconnaissance," etc.Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Leo Ray looked thoughtful.

Because of Taylor's appearance, his situation had undoubtedly changed completely.

Survival was no longer an issue.

At this stage, how to develop more efficiently was the new problem in front of him.

And the premise of development was, of course, to understand the land.

Realizing this, Leo Ray said, "Let's scout the periphery, but don't go too far."

Anyway, although Taylor's loyalty was only 50 points, Leo Ray wasn't worried about any disloyalty from him.

When using the Recruitment Order, they had already signed a master-servant contract with him. Unless loyalty dropped to below 20 points, there would be no thoughts of rebellion or anything else.

"Understood! I will first scout within a radius of one kilometer."

On the other side, Taylor saluted, turned, and strode out the door.

After he left, Leo Ray didn't hesitate and used the Golden Finger on another Tie 1 Recruitment Order.

[Congratulations, your Tie 1 Recruitment Order has been upgraded to 98 Tie 1 Recruitment Orders!]

"Oh boy, is it a change in quantity this time? Feels like I'm doing wholesale."

Looking at the pile of recruitment orders on the ground, Leo Ray shook his head with a wry smile.

At present, the population limit of the territory is only ten people, so so many aren't needed right now.

However, this feeling of copying and pasting still made Leo Ray feel elated.

After all, others only had two recruitment orders a day, while he had nearly 100 at once, more than enough to use.

Next, Leo Ray didn't rush to fill the population, but planned to check the survival resources in the Safety Zone first.

Without a doubt, if there isn't enough food and water in the territory, expanding the population blindly would have the opposite effect.

With that in mind, after going around the territory, Leo Ray discovered...

Centered around the wooden house, an area of around thirty meters in radius...

Was surrounded by a semi-transparent energy wall, which allowed free entry and exit. It was very much like the protective shield in war strategy games.

Standing at the edge of the shield and looking out...

He saw strange shadows flashing at high speed between the outside jungles, and in the distance, he could hear faint and eerie roars.

From this, it could be seen that the area outside the Safety Zone was indeed full of danger.

As for the Safety Zone itself, there were only many trees and a clear, bottom-visible creek.

In the creek, a spring constantly gushed out water. Occasionally, small fish and shrimp could be seen swimming by, confirming that it was a clean water source.

"Only a water source, huh..."

Returning to sit on the wooden steps at the entrance of the small wooden house, Leo Ray opened the Chat Channel to check the status of other Lords again.

At this point, most people already had a general understanding of their respective situations.

However, the focus of the discussion was still on the issue of food.

"Damn, I accidentally hurt my foot while chopping trees for wood with the farmer, now I'm in pain and hungry, want to cry!"

At least you're better off than me, be content! As soon as my summoned farmer started working, he fainted from hunger. The Safety Zone is surrounded by ferocious Goblins, and there's no food to find!"

"Misery loves company! My territory is in the mountains, all there is are rocks, and there's a black tiger guarding the entrance outside. I'm stuck at home drilling big stones with my two farmers..."

What's your situation? My two summoned farmers are both old ladies. They come out and shout they're hungry and won't work unless they eat! I'm about to climb a tree to pick fruit. Now I seriously doubt that they're the Lords and I'm the farmer!"

"Sigh, I'm quite miserable too. I wanted to catch fish by the river, but I didn't get any fish, and a farmer was washed away by the river instead!"

"Any kind-hearted brother from upstairs, can you please give me some food? Anything will do! Before I time-traveled, I was on a diet and haven't eaten properly for days. Boohoo..."

...

Fifteen minutes later, Leo Ray closed the Chat Channel with a thoughtful look on his face.

"It seems I'll have to send Taylor out to find some food later. If there's enough food, everything else will be easy."

Just as he thought this, he saw Taylor returning.

On his huge, mountain-like figure, Taylor had two large demon beasts slung over his shoulders, one on each side. They looked lifeless, clearly dead.

Seeing this, Leo Ray's mouth curved into a smile, reaching almost to his ears, "Well, well, isn't this the food sorted?"
