There were a total of ten Intelligence-type skills!

Most of them were team skills.

There were many useful skills.

Unlike passive skills like Agility and Strength, which were mainly used to strengthen the Overlord, the passive Intelligence skills enhanced the overall combat ability of the team.

For example, [Healing], [Rescue], and [Emergency Aid] could greatly reduce the casualties of his subordinates.

And increase their overall survival.

It seemed that intelligence was an essential attribute for leading troops into battle.

Next was the charm type skill.

He flipped to the bottom of the page of passive skills.

[Charm Type]

1. Persuasion: 1

[This skill will be able to help you make it easier for others to accept your point of view. At the same time, it can reduce the hostility of the natives and increase the speed of nurturing a favorable impression.]

2. Captive Management: 0

4. Trade: 0

[Reduces the loss of trade by 5% for each skill point (applies to the [Transaction] function, as well as the transactions of large organizations. (Team skill)]

[Skill Points: 4]

There were four Charm-type skills.

One of them was an important skill.

That was [Command Control]!

In short, this skill indicated how many subordinates Zong Shen could lead.

Of course, if he wanted to command more people, he needed to recruit “heroes.”

“Hero” was a very general term.

In theory, even the three silly farmers could be groomed to become one.

Of course, their talent level was too low, and their loyalty was not enough.

Talent determined the limit of growth in the future.

Therefore, they were not suitable to be groomed as a hero.

Only when Zong Shen became stronger would he head to the nearby villages, small towns, main cities and giant cities to recruit some fated people.

Of course, as long as Zong Shen’s luck was good enough, the Hero Recruitment Scroll would drop from somewhere.

Then, he could directly recruit them.

However, Zong Shen did not consider so much at the moment.

He had already placed all his attention on the additional points, and he was a little conflicted.

“Recommend me some ways to add some points.”

Zong Shen called out in his mind.

(Passive Skill Recommendation: (Engineering+2, Healing+1, Item Management+1)

(Four Attributes Recommendation: Intelligence+2, Strength+1, Charm+1)

(Weapon Proficiency Recommendation: Crossbow+5, One-Handed Weapon+5)

(New attribute Skill Points for Intelligence, advised to add points to [Iron Bones], [Run])

(There’s no issue with adding this way. It can increase your development efficiency and your current rank is not a problem.)

A series of golden tips appeared. As long as Zong Shen had doubts, the strategy system would appear.

Zong Shen chose to listen to the guide’s advice.

After adding points to both attributes and skills.

Zong Shen opened the option [Overlord Information].

He realized that his attributes had changed.

[Name: Zong Shen]

[Age: 21]

[Race: Earth / Human]

[Rank: Level 1]

[Experience Points: 55/100]

[Health Points: 182]

[Command count: 4/39]

[Power: 12]

[Agility: 7]

[Intelligence: 7]

[Charm: 9]

[Remaining attribute points: 0]

[Remaining weapon level: 10]

[Detailed attributes: (Click to unfold)]

[Weapon level: (Click to unfold)]

The amount of health points and manpower changed because of the additional points.

Then, Zong Shen activated [Weapon Level] and added the remaining 10 points.

[Weapon Level]

[One-Handed Weapon: 89]

[Two-Handed Weapon: 80]

[Long pole weapon: 88]

[Bow: 52]

[Crossbow: 57]

[Throw: 60]

[Firearms: 60]

[Weapon Level increases by 0.01% damage for every point.]

Then, Zong Shen opened up the detailed attributes.

[Lord: Zong Shen]

[Equipment: [Messy leather short-sleeved shirt] , [Tattered leather boots], [Rusty sword], [Hunting crossbow], [Bent crossbow], [Caved-in simple kite-shaped shield]

[Cleave Damage: 21 × (1.12+0.32+0.089) (Strength+Powerful Blow+Weapon Level) = 32.1]

[Penetration Damage: 33 × (1.12+0.32+0.057) = 49.4]

[Head Armor: 0]

[Upper Body Armor: 13]

[Leg Armor: 10]

[Skill: None]

[Territory Level: 1]

After checking his attributes.

Zong Shen had a rough understanding of his current situation and strength system.

Compared to the Wolf Cavalry soldier, his attributes were just like a little boy.

Only the penetration damage values looked decent.

This was the reason why he had chosen to be a strength-type when choosing his background.

However, the Wolf Cavalry soldier was, after all, a fully formed Warrior of Rank-10.

Zong Shen was still a Rank-1 Little Lord.

He was still wearing the “newbie equipment” gifted by his chosen background.

In terms of growth potential, as a Lord, Zong Shen was much stronger than the Wolf Cavalry soldier.

Zong Shen waved his hand to disperse the system’s information screen and stood up.

He took out the last iron axe and a pickaxe from his storage box.

Not far away, Iron Pole returned with the resources.

[Stone+2]

[Iron+1]

[Textile+2]

After putting down the resources, he turned around and went out to collect them again.

Iron Pole seemed to have collected iron.

This iron was an important material for making tools and weapons.

It could be considered an extremely important resource.

Zong Shen glanced at the territory’s storage box.

There were only a few pitiful resources inside.

[Wood x2]

[Stone x4]

[Iron x1]

[Textile x2]

He couldn’t help but shake his head.

Now that his attributes had been added and he had understood their effects, it was time to work!

“Do it yourself to be well-fed!”

“As a successful Lord, I have to set a good example.”

Zong Shen said confidently.
