Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead

Chapter 385: Chapter 372, Tile Trouble l

3 million undead soldiers, majestically passing through the fortress.

Moving towards the depths of the Bloody Mountain Range.

Fang Hao stood on the city wall, watching the departure of the army.

For this attack on the Trolls, he had arranged the Skeleton heroes Black Thorn, Black Sword, Giant Wall, and Heavy Arrow.

As for the defense of the fortress, Petty and an undead army of 700,000 were left in charge.

There was a Slave Contract between Fang Hao and Petty.

He could be trusted.

Moreover, there was only one route from the fortress to the Bloody Mountain Range.

That is to say, if the Trolls wanted to attack the fortress, they would encounter Black Thorn’s army of 3 million.

The possibility of bypassing the army and directly attacking the fortress was extremely small.

Even to say, impossible.

But to be safe, nearly 700,000 undead soldiers were left with Petty to prevent any mishaps.

“Petty, I’m leaving this to you. This is a Sound-transmitting Shell. Report to me immediately if there is any danger,” said Fang Hao as he handed the shell to Petty.

With both hands, Petty accepted the shell and assured, “Don’t worry, master. I will complete this task.”

This should be the first time Petty had command over such a large army.

His chubby face turned even brighter pink, full of excitement.

Fang Hao smiled lightly, “Don’t be too nervous. The likelihood of Trolls coming all the way here is very small. Even if some do make it, they will only be scattered deserters. Pay attention to your defense and there won’t be any problems.”

“Yes, my lord.” Petty nodded earnestly.

Fang Hao looked down at the city again.

The long line of the undead was still moving out.

He then took Anjia and Demitrija, and rode the Bone Dragon back to his territory.

By the time he returned to his domain, the day had grown dim.

After dinner.

Fang Hao lay in the hot spring, his head resting on Eira’s smooth and plump thigh.

Munching on the fruit fed by Eira, he watched the chat in the area channel.

Even though everyone in this world was living a hard life,

gathering together could relieve a great deal of stress, and lighten the atmosphere.

These days, people in the channel had started to buy clay tiles.

And everyone now knew that clay tiles were materials for upgrading the City Lord’s Mansion from level 7 to level 8.

Although few could upgrade their City Lord’s Mansion to level 7, most people still planned to stock up in advance for their future upgrades.

Fang Hao was surprised at the speed of the people who started to buy clay tiles.

He had only upgraded to level 8 a few days ago, yet it seemed that the others were not far behind him.

He immediately checked his stockpile of clay tiles. He had 3200 tiles.

That was enough for him to upgrade to level 9.

“Damn! Qiu Zhi Shang is such a rip-off! One clay tile for one piece of equipment or a rare material, he’s treating us like idiots!”

“Sigh! Don’t mention it. He’s the only one in the channel with the blueprint for a kiln. Of course, he’s going to sell it for a high price.”

“But he can’t just sell it like this. I asked, the quantity of clay tiles needed for level 7 to 8 is 1200.1200 pieces of equipment, who can afford that?”

People in the channel were discussing about the clay tiles.

Although Fang Hao joined later, he quickly understood what was going on.

Qiu Zhi Shang was the one who wanted to exchange a piece of equipment for a clay tile last time.

After being rejected by Fang Hao, he started selling clay tiles in the channel at the same price.

So far, no one else in the channel was selling clay tiles.

Clay tiles were made by firing clay and required in large quantities.

The price of one tile for one piece of equipment had caused an uproar in the channel, but they had no better solution.

Soon, Qiu Zhi Shang saw the discussion in the channel and responded.

“We are all savvy people, so there’s no need for pointless talk. If you have a blueprint for a clay tile building, you wouldn’t necessarily be better off than me. The price is set. Instead of complaining, you should focus more on gathering materials and equipment to exchange for the clay tiles.”

As soon as these words came out, the channel fell silent.

Getting a special blueprint and becoming rich overnight were not uncommon events in this world.

Though people thought Qiu Zhi Shang was a cheat, if someone else got the unique blueprints, who could guarantee that they wouldn’ t be the second Qiu Zhi Shang, or even worse.

However, the atmosphere in the channel was still normal for now.

Fang Hao’s fair prices had helped many people to overcome difficulties.

The channel even advocated for mutual aid.

After the brief silence, someone retorted.

“Soon others will get the blueprint. I’ll see what you do then.”

“Exactly! The blueprint isn’t exclusive. It’s just a matter of time before others get it.”

“Right, if others don’t, Lord Fang Hao definitely has the blueprint. Let’s buy our clay tiles from Lord Fang Hao.”

Qiu Zhi Shang scoffed: “Hmph! I thought you were going to say something important. So this is it… To tell you the truth, a few days ago Fang Hao was discussing the price with me. He’s probably saving up equipment right now. For now, whoever has a higher level has an advantage. Don’t you want to work hard and become the boss of an area?”

After saying that, he even sent the screenshot of his chat with Fang Hao to the channel to prove the accuracy of his words.

He only kept the part where Fang Hao asked about the price and thought it was a bit expensive, without the beginning or the end of the conversation.

“See? Even your beloved Lord Fang Hao will buy clay tiles from me. He’s just gathering equipment. Now, the higher your level the bigger your advantage. Are you not willing to work a little harder to become the boss of an area?” Qiu Zhi Shang sent another message.

Upon seeing the screenshot, the channel became a bit chaotic again.

The number of people who had been criticizing together instantly dropped a lot.

Even Fang Hao was going to buy clay tiles from Qiu Zhi Shang.

But while Fang Hao could afford the equipment needed for the exchange, they couldn’t.

If the price was set— one piece of equipment for one clay tile— most of them wouldn’t be able to upgrade their territories from level 7 to level 8.

Instantly, everyone was filled with a sense of hopelessness.

Fang Hao’s brows furrowed deeply as he watched the chat in the channel.

Even though he didn’t agree with Qiu Zhi Shang1 s way of trading by emptying the other party,

He also didn’t want to interfere in this matter.

He had thought that if the price was so high, everyone would just not buy it.

But he didn’t expect Qiu Zhi Shang to accept the chat records of the two while omitting some parts.

With his spouting nonsense, it seemed like Fang Hao was also willing to buy bricks from him.

This could mislead others.

With such a high price for the bricks, Fang Hao was indirectly an accomplice.

His image that had been maintained all along could be destroyed by Qiu Zhi Shang.

Fang Hao thought for a moment and directly listed 500 bricks in the channel.

The price was 50 slices of rare materials for one brick.

And he said, “I won’t be buying bricks from outside. The brick kilns in my territory are already producing bricks and will sell 500 bricks every 5 days. However, the efficiency cannot keep up. Those who are not in a hurry to upgrade can wait. The quantity will increase later, and the price will drop.”

The material for bricks is clay.

It’s not worth anything. The main consumption is time.

Moreover, Fang Hao still had to take care of the materials needed for upgrading subsidiary territories, and he can’t sell in large quantities.

But he could take this opportunity when the bricks are scarce, to exchange some rare materials.

Seeing Fang Hao’s listing and remarks,

the channel instantly boiled again.

“Damn! Big Brother Fang Hao is on the rise.”

“This is my last message privilege of the day, Big Brother is awesome!”

“Qiu Zhi Shang, you crook, even if it’s the same price, I will buy from Big Brother Fang Hao.”

“Big Brother is awesome…”

One message after another, talking about how awesome and powerful Fang Hao was.

Qiu Zhi Shang stared blankly at the scrolling screen in the channel, his face turning white instantly.

This was clearly his business, why did Fang Hao benefit from it?

Fang Hao’s asking price was also high; clay isn’t worth much.

But with his arrogant words just now, Fang Hao’s price seems very reasonable.

In this way, I’m afraid nobody would want to buy his bricks in the future.

So all the bricks he’s saved up will be stuck with him.

“Fang Hao, you won’t die a good death…” Qiu Zhi Shang smashed the clay cup in his hand on the ground and cursed loudly.

Fang Hao was relieved after seeing the matter resolved.

Although he didn’t fear the others in the channel, he also didn’t want to be used by anyone.

Destroying his own reputation.

The territory is fixed, and as their territories continue to expand, they would inevitably encounter each other sooner or later.

In this world, these people are like fellows to him. He didn’t want to appear in front of others with a bad reputation.

Splash!

Fang Hao sat up from the pool,

Causing waves of water to splash around.

“Master, are you going to rest?” Eira picked up the towel and gently wiped the water off his body.

“First upgrade the City Lord’s Mansion, and also call Anjia out, let’s sleep after the upgrade is completed.” Fang Hao waited for Eira to dry him.

He wrapped a towel around his waist and walked directly out of the City Lord’s Mansion.

Standing in front of the City Lord’s Mansion, he checked the requirements for upgrading to Level 9.

[Level Nine City Lord’s Stone Tower: Sturdy Wood 10500, Stone Bricks 16000, Iron 1100, Metal Parts 900, Bricks 1800.]

At this time, Eira and Anjia also came out.

The City Lord’s Stone Tower was empty.

Fang Hao directly confirmed the upgrade.

The light instantly enveloped the City Lord’s Mansion. The area of the Stone

Tower expanded once again, with the outline of a tower appearing on the right side in the light.

The upgrade lasted for half an hour.

Once the light faded, the upgrade was complete.

This time, the area of the City Lord’s Mansion expanded once again, and a hexagonal tower appeared on the right side, symmetrical with the left side. [Level Nine City Lord’s Stone Tower]

[City Lord: Fang Hao]

[Ability: Production/Gathering +4%, Soldier Movement +4.5%, All Attributes +5%]

[Existing Building: Level Eight Underground Cemetery… Level Eight Stables.] (Note: Core building of the territory.)

[Materials required for upgrade: Sturdy Wood 25000, Stone Bricks 40000, Precision Stone Bricks 5500, Smooth Stone Flooring 800, Iron 2100, Cast Iron Blocks 800, Metal Parts 900, Bricks 3000.]

Upgrading to Level Ten not only increased the amount of materials required, but also introduced several new ones.

It seems that reaching Level Ten would present a new bottleneck.

“Alright, Eira and Anjia, you can go back and rest.” said Fang Hao.

At this time, the excitement in Anjia’s eyes had replaced her initial drowsiness. Looking at the expanded City Lord’s Mansion, her face was full of excitement. “Hurry, Eira. There are so many rooms on the second floor, I’ll help you move up there.”

Anjia pulled Eira and rushed directly into the City Lord’s Mansion.
