Chapter 4: Leading Boss!
A Castle Lord who could take out 50 units of food, on the first day, was a big shot. After all, there were many Castle Lords who did not even dare to go out of their castles, let alone kill monsters and collect food.
Even if the Castle Lords dared to leave their castles, their assault units were no match for the beasts in the wild. They could only gather wood, stone, and other resources near to their castle.
Once the wild monsters attacked, they would immediately return to the castle; under the threat of monster attacks, food was extremely precious.
As for the Castle Lord who could kill monsters in the wild and obtain food? He was definitely in the minority. Moreover, he was considered a big shot with high rank and had a powerful Base Assault Unit under him.
Such a Castle Lord was someone they could look up to. But now, in the?Worldwide Chat Forum?, many Castle Lords were berating Lin Yi; they thought he was a profiteer, and, at the same time, he was raising the market price, ultimately exploiting them.
The reason was very simple. Lin Yi’s prices were simply shocking, double the market price for food. The market price was 10 units of wood or 5 units of stone for 1 unit of food. But when Lin Yi arrived, the price shot up to 20 units of wood or 10 units of stone.
If this person wasn’t a profiteer, who was? Many Castle Lords started to reprimand him; however, Lin Yi did not care.
At this point, there was no food in the market! If these didn’t buy, others would. Among the billions of Castle Lords, there would always be people who would grit their teeth and buy from him.
Then, as expected, it spanned as he thought it would.
Not long after he posted his offer on the ?Hyperspace Trading Channel?the food was sold out.
Fifty units of food were all traded.
?Sold 1 unit of food, received 20 units of wood?
?Sold 1 unit of food, received 10 units of stone?
?Sold 1 unit of food, received 20 units of wood?
…
The notification came to a stop.
50 units of food were traded for 600 units of wood and 200 units of stone. All of them were automatically stored in the castle’s warehouse.
Warehouse. It was like an infinite space that could fit in any amount of resources; it also came with a function for preservation; food could be stored in there for a long time.
“It’s all wood and stones, no one traded a Crystal.”
Crystals could be used to level up the Base Assault Unit structure, and they could only be obtained by killing wild beasts or monsters. It was clear that Energy Stones were more precious than wood and stones.
If someone had the power to get Crystals, it meant that they would naturally have the capability to get food, unless what they had wasn’t sufficient.
“A few more trades and my castle can be upgraded!” Lin Yi muttered.
Compared to the assault units structure, the castle was also quite important. The higher the tier of the castle, the greater the defence of the Castle Heart. Which meant the castle couldn’t be easily destroyed. In the future, the castle could even be upgraded into a town, city, fort, or even a kingdom or an empire.
It could be considered the core foundation of a Castle Lord.
[50 units of food are gone?][F*ck! A bunch of animals! I hesitated for two seconds, and the food was cleaned!][There are over a billion Castle Lords, not to mention 50 units of food, even 50 million units wouldn’t be nearly enough to satisfy the demand. One more thing, I’m so hungry, please gimme food!!]
{ED: I imagine the person using this emoji: ??}
[Boss, can you give me a unit of food? I’ll give you 300 million!][I’ll give you 1 billion!][This is another world, even tens of billions are useless! I have a gold chain that I have been keeping for several years, but it doesn’t have any lustre. Are you interested? ][The person upstairs, you should use that gold chain for hanging!][I am very curious, what type of assault unit can kill wild beasts?!][… The Castle Lord with the Wyvern assault unit, aka the son of heaven, almost shredded to pieces by wild monsters …][50 units of food! How many wild beasts and monsters would a person need to kill to gather that many units?][Begging the boss to clear up our doubts!]
When someone put something up for trade on the?Hyperspace Trading Channel?the name of the trader would appear, so naturally, Lin Yi became famous.
Now, the direction of the chat had changed completely. No one complained about Lin Yi being a profiteer, instead, they were looking for food, and they were curious as to what type of Base Assault Unit he had.
There were also many Castle Lords who sent friend requests to Lin Yi; however, they were rejected by Lin Yi.
He then casually sent a message in the channel.
[The next wave of food units will be put up for trade three hours later, at the same price as before! Food is limited, therefore, it will be a first-come, first-served basis!][Damn! Is this deity, Lin Yi?][Look at the hero’s demeanour!][Lin Yi, can you make it cheaper? I only have two units of stone … I’m a little girl!][The guy upstairs, picking his feet. You better go to sleep. You won’t be hungry when you sleep!]
“Bad guy!!”
Somewhere underground in the Boundless Continent.
A little lolita in a long dress, covered in dust, with seven grey dwarves, was digging rocks. When she saw the message, she became so angry that she revealed two small canine teeth.
…
Once the message was sent.
There were even more Castle Lords who wanted to make friends with Lin Yi; the requests soared to millions.
Lin Yi ignored everyone
‘Friend’ was a namesake for discount, so he didn’t need such friends.
“My lord!”
At the moment, Sear and Todd dragged the carcasses of a few wild monsters back to the castle. Lin Yi nodded in response. The two little angels happily flapped their snow-white wings and flew out of the castle and continued hunting. The little angels were hard-working and diligent. Lin Yi was very satisfied.
The more hunting the angels did, the more energy and rewards he got. It seemed that he was not that far from levelling up and throwing away the status of level 0.
Finally, two hours later.
A golden light suddenly appeared on Lin Yi. He felt that his strength had increased several times in a moment and his physical quality had become stronger.
“Is this a level-up?”
