Chapter 478: 413, Dark Gold Viscera Jar (Seeking Subscriptions, Seeking Recommendations)_1
It had been over two months, but he could still recognize Fang Hao’s face.
Although Xu Yang was curious about why Fang Hao was acquainted with the Undead, he couldn’t afford to wonder about that right now.
He could only pin his hopes on Fang Hao, else he was likely to be killed by the Undead.
So, as soon as he confirmed Fang Hao’s identity, he immediately called out for help.
Fang Hao approached the metal cage.
When he heard the disheveled man inside claim to be Xu Yang, he expressed surprise.
He had initially thought the cage contained only a group of savages.
Fang Hao frowned and asked, “You are Xu Yang?”
“Yes, big brother Fang Hao.” Xu Yang immediately wiped his somewhat dirty face, pushed his hair aside and said, “Big brother, could you please tell these gentlemen that we haven’t done anything wrong and to let us out?”
It seemed Xu Yang was not sure of Fang Hao’s status, he just assumed that Fang Hao knew these Undead.
He wanted Fang Hao to vouch for him and his men so they could be set free.
Fang Hao nodded and said to the Black Sword standing by, “I know this man. Let them out.”
“Yes, sir.” Black Sword nodded.
Immediately, two soldiers came up and opened the metal cage, freeing the men.
Xu Yang was surprised to hear the blue Undead hero respectfully calling Fang Hao ‘sir’.
He was further surprised recalling how Fang Hao killed Yu Tianpeng yesterday. A fantastical idea formed in his mind.
Could it be that this seemingly endless Undead army was all under Fang Hao?
This idea was quickly negated by himself.
How could this be possible? Even if Fang Hao was powerful, he was still just a transmigrator.
Three months was not enough time to gather such an army.
Compared to the local forces, this was beyond comparison.
After the cage was opened, Xu Yang, along with several disheveled villagers, crawled out.
“Thank you, big brother Fang Hao, thank you so much.” Xu Yang quickly expressed his gratitude.
Whether considering his current situation or Fang Hao’s slaying of Yu Tianpeng yesterday, he did not dare to disrespect him.
“Have your men rest over there for a while. Let’s talk inside.” Fang Hao said.
Xu Yang nodded, gave a few instructions to his men, then followed Fang Hao into the command hall.
They took seats inside the hall.
Intrigued, Fang Hao asked, “What happened to you all? I thought you guys were savages from somewhere!”
“Ah! After we exchanged food and equipment with you last time, those damn Trolls wanted to eat us, so we escaped in the middle of the night and hid in a cave for 17 days, thus ending up like this.” Xu Yang sighed.
He did not mention the fight between the Undead and the Trolls, as they were now in the Undead’s camp.
If he said something wrong and got decapitated, there would be nowhere to go to reason.
“So you mean, you came out of the cave today and were immediately captured?” Fang Hao found this a bit funny.
He had been told by Black Sword that Xu Yang had sneaked into the Bloody Mountain Range.
In fact, Xu Yang had been trying to sneak out.
“Exactly, we didn’t do anything, oh~! Life is so hard.” Xu Yang sighed again.
In the Bloody Mountain Range, there were many abandoned cities everywhere.
These were all established by transmigrated human lords, but after the seven-day protection period, most of them had been devoured by Trolls as appetizers.
Being born in such a place was unfortunate but surviving until now was fortunate.
Fang Hao thought for a moment and asked, “Once you’re let go, do you have any plans?”
Upon hearing Fang Hao’s question about their further plans, Xu Yang appeared a bit confused.
His plan was to leave the Bloody Mountain Range. He hadn’t yet thought about which city he should settle in and develop.
He was unfamiliar with the world outside.
In human cities, the advantage was that no one would eat you, but there were other dangers.
Xu Yang glanced at Fang Hao. He’d heard that Fang Hao killed Yu Tianpeng because Yu was planning an assault on Dong Jiayue’s city.
Fang Hao had a good reputation in the area. If he could align with Fang Hao, that would be a good decision.
“Cough cough, we don’t have any plans for what comes next. This is our first time leaving the Bloody Mountain Range. Brother Fang Hao, if it’s possible, could I become your assistant?” Xu Yang asked directly.
‘Becoming an assistant’ meant helping with tasks.
Instead of struggling on his own, he would be better off following Fang Hao.
Building a city required a vast amount of manpower and materials.
Even though he no longer had a domain, his advantage as a transmigrator allowed him to manufacture things and decipher all kinds of racial texts.
This skill was definitely superior to that of the average villager.
Having worked as a foreman for a long time among the Trolls, he could manage the villagers’ production.
In short, he wanted to follow Fang Hao, but the decision would ultimately be up to Fang Hao.
Fang Hao looked at Xu Yang. He wasn’t surprised by Xu Yang’s decision.
He calmly said, “Two cities have recently become vacant. I can appoint you as the governor of one of them. However, you need to ensure a steady output of resources. Can you handle it?”
Fang Hao planned to assign him to Qiu Zhi Shang’s city.
Qiu Zhi Shang’s city had a large number of ceramic kilns set up.
Fang Hao needed someone good at management to ensure steady ceramics production and expand agricultural development.
Xu Yang seemed to be a good candidate.
