When he woke up again, the sun was high in the sky.
He had slept straight through to noon.
The rumbling in his stomach, protesting against the hunger, reminded him that it was time to eat.
The surroundings of his territory were quiet, all of his skeleton soldiers were still at the gnoll camp and had not returned yet.
Inside his territory, mountains of resources were stacked.
He lit a fire and made some barbecue.
He opened the Book of Lords and found the chat constantly updating.
There were several private messages as well.
“Boss, you’re not in trouble are you? I’ve prepared a lot of resources, waiting to trade them for food with you.”
“Boss Fang Hao, why haven’t you put the food on the market today?”
“Boss, if something happens to you, let me know the location of your territory. I want a share of the legacy.”
There were many similar messages, including ones from those who had traded blueprints with him before.
They were all asking if something had happened to Fang Hao, otherwise why hadn’t he put the food on the market at this time.
Fang Hao yawned twice.
He put the food on the market, proof that he was alive and well.
In the chat channel, people were still making idle talk.
“Let me tell you, today I pulled up a net full of skeletons again, a lot more than last time.”
“That’s scary, you should switch to a different river, this one must be poisonous.”
“No wonder no one is buying the fish you sell, is your river the River Styx? You keep fishing up skeleton bones.”
“Are there any piranhas in the river?”
“No, listen to me. I found several sets of leather armor and helmets among the skeletons. They’re great for equipping my soldiers.”
“Wow, how lucky.”
“I’m so envious, I don’t have soldiers or leather armor.”
“How many sets did you find? Are you willing to sell them? I can trade resources.”
“Not selling! I’m walking upstream along the river, waiting to find more. Then I’ll sell them to you.”
This must be that Zhang Bin again.
The last time there was a battle with the gnoll camp, he said that he had fished up a bunch of skeletons in his net.
At that time, Fang Hao had the feeling that this guy’s territory was downstream from the gnoll camp, along the nearby creek.
Another battle had taken place last night.
Now, he said he had fished out more skeletons, along with leather armor and helmets.
It became clearer that his territory was not far from the gnoll camp.
Watching the others chat and joke, Fang Hao finished his barbecue.
After a few mouthfuls, he went back to his room, selected his troops, and used the God’s Presence skill.
…
The next second.
Fang Hao appeared in the gnoll camp.
The skeleton soldiers had finished cleaning up the battlefield. Without new orders, they stood stiffly in place, like terracotta warriors.
After a glance around, Fang Hao went to the stack of resources in the center.
Resource type: Wriggling Spine 1742 pieces, Iron 120 units, Beast Skin 80 units, Warfire Coin 50 pieces.
Equipment type: Orc Machete 2012 pieces, Orc Leather Armor 842 pieces, Orc Leather Helmet 655 pieces, Orc Leather Boots 1055 pairs, Orc Iron Armor 32 pieces, Orc Iron Helmet 11 pieces, Flatbed Cart 12 units.
Miscellaneous: 4 baskets of fruit, 42 units of salt, Manim Market Map.
Truth be told.
Only war can bring rapid development to Fang Hao.
To support war with war, under the boost of a hundredfold increase, every battle leads to a burst in the number of soldiers.
This time another 1742 Wriggling Spines were obtained, under the hundredfold increase, the number of soldiers would reach a horrifying level.
Massive amounts of orc equipment could also enhance the combat power of the skeletons.
As for the fruits and salt, no need to elaborate.
Just some improvements in the diet.
[Manim Market]
[Category: Single Blueprint]
(Description: A peaceful market established by orcs, where all fights and looting are prohibited.)
This was similar to the previous Dragon Tomb map that he had obtained.
On the single piece of map, was a route leading to the orc market.
This suddenly reminded him of his own market.
In 5 days time, the Skeleton Merchant would bring new merchandise to his territory.
And he had not yet prepared enough Warfire Coins.
Maybe he could try out this orc market.
To get some Warfire Coins.
Next to the pile of supplies was a set of equipment neatly displayed.
Bloodthirsty Helmet, Bloodthirsty Chest Armor, Bloodthirsty Gauntlets, Bloodthirsty Boots.
Bloodthirsty Set (Purple)
Category: Body Defense
Defense: Level 5 Defense
Set Effect: Berserker: For every enemy eliminated or assisted in elimination, strength increases by 1% for 8 seconds. (This effect can stack up to 50 times).
(Description: The sound of the armor rubbing together, is like thick, fresh blood being spilled on the ground.)
Fang Hao had some impression of this equipment.
That was Kedo’s equipment, and it seems that it is still a rare set.
The chest armor was a metal plate wrapped tightly in a layer of black leather, with intricate patterns carved on the leather.
The Bloodthirsty Set was a treasure of the Fireblade tribe, previously worn by the Orc Clan Leader, Fireblade.
This time, Kedo went on the expedition as one of the most favored sons of the Fireblade chief, he was allowed to wear this Bloodthirsty Set for safety.
But who could have expected that they all underestimated this Undead Village without even a city wall.
Kedo ended up staying here for good.
Picking up the Bloodthirsty Gloves and flipping them over,
A mangled orc finger fell out of the glove.
Needless to imagine,
The equipment was too difficult to remove and the Skeleton’s movements were rather rigid.
They simply yanked it off along with the finger.
Thinking of this, Fang Hao shook both the glove and the boots, fortunately there were no remaining limbs.
“Alright, secure the cargo, we are heading back to the territory.”
The skeletons loaded all the spoils of war onto the cart, after securing them with ropes,
The large group set off again, majestically returning to their territory.
…
After a few hours of journey,
The group finally returned to their territory.
They unloaded all the supplies according to their locations, then had all the skeletons return to their posts and continue their work.
Life had to continue.
To counter the possible dangers that may arise in the future, the pace of development could not slacken.
Fang Hao deactivated the God’s Presence state and walked out of the Lord’s cabin.
Looking at the world through the skeleton’s body and through his own eyes are quite different experiences.
The world is grim and colorless in the skeleton’s eyes, giving off an underworld feeling.
It was better for him to see the world himself, it surely felt good to be alive.
This time although the fight was involuntary, the gains were quite substantial.
Not only did he acquire a large quantity of orc equipment, but also over a thousand Wriggling Spines.
As a novice protection coming to an end, these Spines could be of help to increase the safety of the territory after he starts to enlisting soldiers.
Skeleton soldiers do not need food, unlike other lords.
When recruiting troops, they need to consider their food reserves.
In addition to this, there’s Zhuang Hong’s Book of Lords and Kedo’s purple level set.
Both were precious treasures.
Fang Hao descended the steps and drew near the supplies.
System prompts followed immediately.
[Book of Lords can be consumed.]
As follows, Zhuang Hong’s Book of Lords, just like a blueprint, turned into specks of starlight and integrated into Fang Hao’s Book of Lords.
[You have acquired the decision power over Zhuang Hong’s territory.]
[Occupy/Discard]
[Occupy: Will become your subordinating territory, can continue to develop.]
[Discard: Will receive 50%-80% of the territorial resources of this territory, and this territory will be abandoned.]
