Chapter 56: Chapter 55: I Have a Sister Who Likes to Wear Black Silk
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After Richard left the olive forest in a beautiful mood, he led his troop and headed east to scan the map.
Today, he planned to capture a medium-sized gold mine that a half-metal giant guarded.
He was deeply impressed by those big men who had entire defense and were outrageous.
However, a powerful weapon gave him strong confidence after the troop production refreshed and the number of the Axe of the Dead increased.
‘Let’s see if you panic with a 30% chance of dying.’
Moreover, he wasn’t afraid of any problems because of Sand Transformation. A particular skill with a natural defense against physical damage.
At worst, he could just use Sand Transformation to escape.
With a powerful trump card, Richard had nothing to fear.
On the way, he opened the [Forum Chat].
He didn’t know how the lord-tier players were doing after troop production refreshed the other day.
[Hahahaha, I bought five troops from the lair yesterday. I just recruited a batch of them, and then they refreshed. I was good, and I recruited those troops again. Now, I’m like a mouse carrying a gun. I can scare cats!]
[What a loss!! F*ck, yesterday, a vagrant offered me his wife to get a job. I was too happy and went to bed too early. I didn’t recruit troops and missed the chance to refresh.]
[Then, this morning, a large group of bandits ransacked my territory. I didn’t have enough troops, so I had to dry-clean it.]
[Later, I discovered that the homeless man was ultimately a spy sent by the enemy. Moreover, his wife had a disease…! I just want to ask, how can I treat this illness? Is it still too late to keep your body safe?]
[Ha ha ha! I have Lao Tzu’s ten troops’ lair, which will be violent. I just want to ask if you’re afraid??!!]
[But why do these troops eat more than the residents? Ah, damn. I’m so panicked. The troop will eat the territory like this…]
Richard had deep thoughts.
One of the posts made Richard laugh and thoughtful. He deliberately searched it and read it a few more times.
[Last time, it was that idiot who said the undead were good, didn’t need logistics, and could be developed.]
[I truly believed in you. I’m a human territory of the Holy Church Empire. I thought that when the residents died in the future, I could still use their bones to recruit skeleton soldiers.]
[But after the undead appeared, the territory immediately fell into great chaos.]
[Those damn peasants said that they were undead and that they were very evil. They asked me to get rid of all the soldiers. Are you kidding me? Is this possible?]
[After I rejected them, the soldiers’ morale dropped so quickly that I couldn’t hold them back.]
[Some people even led a rebellion today. F*ck, I killed them on the spot and used their corpses to summon the skeletons.]
[Even though I’ve managed to intimidate them now, I feel their morale has fallen to the bottom. What should I do? The territory is going to be abolished…]
[First Floor: Is the landlord an idiot in the teleportation? Your Holy Church Empire, a human from the light faction, isn’t recruiting skeletons suicidal? Have you ever seen a human territory raising skeleton soldiers? They were so scared that they scared people to death.]
[Second Floor: I can’t take it anymore. I’m going to laugh myself to death. You’re honestly a little genius. Every faction has its characteristics. You’re also courting death if you don’t bring out your faction’s strengths and still want to play with the other factions.]
[Third Floor: Have you ever seen an undead army that recruits elves?]
[Fourth Floor: I have a pretty good idea. Why don’t you just slaughter those residents and transfer them to the undead faction…]
[Fifth Floor: …]
Richard fell into deep contemplation. The recruitment of the undead in the human territory would cause a backlash.
Why didn’t the residents react to the few undead troops he recruited?
Was this the hidden setting of the game “Shining Era”?’
[Could it be that the lord had recruited the undead soldiers from his camp? But if the recruited soldiers deviated from his camp, would they receive an invisible punishment?]
[Moreover, the more they deviated from the camp, the higher the punishment would be…]
[Like how the human lord recruited the undead soldiers, both sides were enemies so the punishment would be the most severe.]
[The desert camp is law-abiding and neutral.]
[The range of recruitment should be more expansive. And mummies are a unique product of the desert. They won’t be affected too much.]
[Although this aspect is relaxed, there’s still a considerable restriction — the desert.]
[That’s right, there may not be too many restrictions on the camp. We can recruit all types of soldiers, but the environment is limited.]
[If the recruited soldiers are unsuitable for living in the desert, even if the residents accept them, this will significantly reduce their battle power.]
[Just like summoning a human soldier in the desert, it may be thirsty. If they are not suitable for fighting in the desert, this will significantly reduce their battle power.]
[It seems that in the future, we must consider more about soldier recruitment…]
After Richard figured out the critical point, many of the doubts he had before suddenly became clear.
As he was about to close the [ForumChat], his private message suddenly lit up.
He clicked it open.
He saw a familiar account.
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon: Brother Qingqiu!]
[Qingqiu: ???]
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon: Hey, Brother, you’re online?]
[Qingqiu: Cut the crap, what’s the matter?]
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon: “Brother Qingqiu, you’ve changed. When you want to buy my resources and treasures, you don’t talk to me in this tone.]
[When you need someone, call them Little Sweet. Now, you don’t need them. Just call me Madam Niu…”]
[Qingqiu: Release.]
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon? “Brother, you really can’t take a joke. I was thinking of introducing my 1.72-meter-tall sister, who likes to wear black silk, to you. Forget it, forget it… Let’s get down to business.]
[Brother, I found a one-way portal. There’s a 2-star dungeon inside. I’m planning to go and clear it. Since you can sell so much food, you must have cleared the dungeon too, right?]
[Do you have any skills that can guide me? As long as I can clear the dungeon, I’ll surely give you a treasure!]
[Qingqiu: You’re planning to clear a 2-star dungeon??]
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon: That’s right. To tell you the truth, I picked up two 3-star treasure chests and made a small fortune. I bought ten ordinary-level troop lairs and five elite-level troop lairs!!]
[After the number of troops I could recruit yesterday was refreshed, I already have three squadrons of troops. Brother, how is this strength? Not bad, right?]
After this guy sent this message, he smiled smugly.
It made him feel great when he showed off in front of this mysterious and powerful guy, Qingqiu.
However, Richard’s message after made his blood freeze.
[Qingqiu: If you want to die, then go. With the 2-star dungeon? Who gave you the courage??]
[Do you know what’s in a 1-star dungeon? The average level of the troops — rare.]
[Wait until you’ve gathered three squadrons of rare troops before you can consider a 2-star dungeon.]
After Richard finished speaking, he closed the [Forum Chat] and couldn’t be bothered with that sand sculpture anymore.
Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon sent over a dozen messages in a row, but he was shocked and scared after no replies from the other party.
‘A 1-star dungeon, the average strength of the troop is rare??
‘F*ck, I almost entered a 2-star dungeon!!’
‘It was so close, so close. Fortunately, I had an extra eye.’
After he regained his senses, he immediately felt intense gratitude and deep respect for Richard.
‘Big Brother had saved my life!’
‘But how could Big Brother of green hill know the details of a 1-star dungeon? There was no information outside the dungeon. Could it be that Big Brother had been there?’
‘Otherwise, it was impossible to be so precise.’
‘A dungeon that could clear the average strength of the troops was rare…? …Just how strong was this mysterious Brother Qingqiu?’
For a moment, Richard’s status in his heart soared rapidly.
After he thought for a moment, he opened his private message and sent a message to one of his friends.
[Sis, I just contacted Brother Qingqiu. He said that the strength of the troops in a 1-star dungeon is rare!]
[He didn’t say anything about the 2-star troops, but it’s even more bizarre if you think about it with your knees. We have to postpone the raid!]
The other party immediately responded.
[Night Rain Flower Falls: Qingqiu? The top player who sold nearly a hundred desert horses? How did he know that all the troops inside were rare?? He cleared the dungeon?!!]
[Sis, don’t be surprised. That big shot is very arrogant. His information is surely guaranteed… He saved us.]
[Night Rain Flower Falls: The game “Shining Era” has truly undergone significant changes. Most of the information I knew about the company had already been obsolete. We have to be more careful in the future.]
[Sis, how will we get along with Big Brother Qingqiu? I feel like we can cling onto his thigh…]
[Night Rain Flower Falls: That Qingqiu is not easy. You can contact him more in the future.]
[We will repay kindness with kindness and hatred with a vengeance. It is our family motto. Find an opportunity to return his favor. I don’t want to owe anyone.]
[I said I had high hopes for him. Sis, aren’t you still single? I have a brilliant idea…]
[Night Rain Flower Falls: Get lost.]
[Alright.]
