YM778.TV Chapter 113 - 113, Full of Rewards_l
The fact that Nigo was still alive…
was not because Fang Hao had any use for him.
It was simply because Nelson was busy working on converting the vampire into a skeleton hero and wasn’t available to transform Nigo.
Killing him now, in the middle of summer, would be unpleasant and could potentially dampen everyone’s mood.
So, Fang Hao figured he’d just lock him up for a few days, wait for Nelson to finish the conversion, and then decide what to do next.
However, upon hearing Nigo’s words, Fang Hao fell into deep thought.
The information he had about the Skullcrusher Tribe was scanty at best. If he could somehow sneak a spy into their ranks and get them to gather intelligence about the enemy’s next moves, it would be a rather good idea.
“You can get into the Skullcrusher Tribe?” Fang Hao halted his departure and turned his gaze once again to the shadowy figure in the iron cage.
“Yes, I can, Master. The Skullcrusher Scouts have said that those who help the Skullcrusher Tribe will be rewarded. If I use this as an excuse to enter the tribe, I’m sure I can join them and acquire information for you,” Nigo responded loudly, grasping at what he saw as his last straw.
He didn’t want to die.
Of course, he had no intention of genuinely being loyal to Fang Hao. If he got the chance to escape, he would definitely take revenge.
He’d torture the human in front of him and the girl who’d beaten him up to death.
Despite his inner thoughts, Nigo remained reverent in his tone, “Master, I will do well. I will correct my mistakes.”
Fang Hao stroked his chin, deep in thought.
It wasn’t a bad idea.
Of course, the good idea was the spy part, not the letting-Nigo-go part. Having eradicated his race, there was no way they could reach an agreement. Even if there were a hero contract, Nigo’s loyalty wouldn’t be high.
Furthermore, the only hero contract he had was bound to Anjia.
“Master? The Great Chief of the Skullcrusher Tribe is known as a tyrant and his troops are formidable. Without intelligence, you might be at a disadvantage,” Nigo’s thin tongue licked his dry lips, “I’ll bring you the information: the numbers of their troops, their time of attack, everything.”
Nigo kept talking, trying to convince Fang Hao to accept his idea.
“Your idea isn’t bad. I’ll think about it.”
After saying that, Fang Hao left, slowly disappearing from Nigo’s sight, leaving the latter begging in the background.
Returning to his room, Fang Hao saw that it was already quite late. He lay down on bed, checked the regional chat where everyone was chatting, and then drifted into sleep.
The next morning…
Fang Hao got up and stretched as the day was beginning to brighten.
After visiting the bathroom and finishing his washing, he left his room and
headed downstairs.
Anjia’s room was still closed, she must have still been sleeping.
Eira was in the kitchen, preparing breakfast for the three of them.
He left the manor.
The rabbit people were early risers and they were already working according to
their assigned chores.
“Master, you’re up early today.” A rabbit woman greeted him with a smile, curtsying respectfully.
Her simple movement made her simply-dressed figure all the more eye-catching, revealing loads of fair skin.
All the rabbit women were young and had attractive figures.
Which was a feast for the eyes early in the morning.
Of course, having seen much of the world, Fang Hao merely smiled at her and
replied, “Good morning.”
“Yes, Master, good morning.” The rabbit woman beamed back at him.
Here, they had food to eat and a housing to live in.
No one bullied them, and their master was usually quite approachable. For
them, it was like living in paradise.
The rabbit people adapted quickly thus, always greeting Fang Hao of their own accord whenever they saw him.
The sight of working skeletons no longer frightened them.
Fang Hao went straight out of the domain and headed to the Lumbering Area.
He opened the crafting menu and chose “Simple Hand Saw”.
“Simple Hand Saw: Sturdy Wood 1, Cast Iron 1, Metal Parts 2.”
Create 30.
“Hundredfold Amplitude triggered. Received 3030 Simple Hand Saws.”
In front of him lay 3000 hand saws.
The shape of the saws wasn’t much different from the ones used for cutting wood in the modern world.
The sharp teeth of the saws could effectively cut through wood.
“Replace tools and store the leftovers in the warehouse,” Fang Hao ordered loudly.
Hearing Fang Hao’s command, the skeleton workers in the nearby lumbering area came over to replace their tools.
The lumbering area housed a small tool warehouse for easy storage and
retrieval of tools.
Soon, the labor skeletons had replaced their tools with hand saws, and stored
the remaining ones in the warehouse.
About 1000 worker skeletons had been assigned to the lumbering area by Fang
Hao.
The reason behind crafting 3000 tools was to prepare for replacement due to wear and tear.
Since the skeletons worked day and night, their tools wore out quickly.
And sometimes, Fang Hao was too busy and might forget to replace them for a
while.
Therefore, he decided to make more just in case.
After crafting the tools,
Fang Hao returned to his domain and started to craft the newly acquired Black
Iron Armor.
There were nearly 50,000 skeleton soldiers in his domain now.
He would first equip the skeletons within the domain with new gear.
“Black Iron Knight Sword (Green): Cast Iron 3, Sturdy Wood 1, Leather 1.”
Create 300.
“Hundredfold Amplitude triggered. Received 30300 Black Iron Knight Swords.”
“Black Iron Open-face Helmet: Leather 5, Iron 3, Iron Plate 4.”
Create 500.
“Hundredfold Amplitude triggered. Received 50500 Black Iron Open-face
Helmets.”
“Wooden Mask: Sturdy Wood 1, Leather 2, Metal Parts 1.”
Create 500.
“Hundredfold Amplitude triggered. Received 50500 Wooden Masks.” Fang Hao produced the items from three different blueprints consecutively.
The area around Fang Hao was now full of equipment.
The quantity had reached an astonishing level.
Fang Hao picked up a Black Iron Knight Sword and examined its attributes.
“Black Iron Knight Sword (Green)”
“Category: One-handed Sword”
“Damage: Level 3 Damage”
(Description: A weapon modeled after a knight’s sword. While it is a replica, it doesn’t change the fact that it can slice off your head.)
The level 2 Skeleton Warriors had Sword and Shield Mastery.
By equipping them with knight swords, it would significantly increase the damage output of the skeleton warriors, making up for the level difference.
“Black Iron Open-face Helmet”
“Category: Head Defense”
“Defense: Level 3 Defense”
(Description: The open-face helmet offers comprehensive protection for the head.)
The Black Iron Open-face Helmet looked like a can helmet seen in movies.
It looked like an iron bucket with a ”T”-shaped opening at the eyes and nose
area.
At least it was different from a simple iron bucket.
If not, Fang Hao might as well have made some iron buckets and have the skeleton warriors wear them on their heads. They could also be used for storing water.
He then checked the last item.
“Wooden Mask (Green)”
“Category: Mask”
“Ability: Level 1 Fear”
(Description: The mask was originally used as a piece of protective armor for the face of a construct. As it evolved and improved over time, it has now become known as a mask). Painted with various ghostly designs, it can cause unrest and fear in others.
“Level 1 Fear”: Wearing the mask has a chance to trigger Level 1 Fear, causing negative effects such as fear and a loss of morale in enemy ‘living creature’ troops. (Fear effects do not stack and will take the maximum fear level value..)
