Chapter 569: 448, Desert Death God_2
After two days of pondering, Fang Hao thought of the underground space where the Red Duke hid Rolana’s wings.
At that time, the entire space was in a dry and heated state.
The way to achieve this was by using the [Exquisitely Carved Sun Array Stone Slabs] embedded in the surrounding walls, which gave off heat.
Fang Hao also obtained the blueprint after clearing the level.
Back then, he didn’t see how these sun stone slabs might be useful other than using them as underfloor heating in winter.
Now, Fang Hao plans to imitate that underground space and build an underground Troop Hiding Cave that could dry up the rainwater.
He made his way to the Troop Hiding Cave outside the city.
As he descended the stairs, he saw neat rows of undead soldiers.
Each soldier’s body was dripping wet, with rainwater trickling down their skeletons and forming puddles on the ground.
Fang Hao went back outside, opened the Book of Lords, and searched for the blueprint.
[Exquisitely Carved Sun Array Stone Slab: Fine Carved Stone Plate 1, Mithril 1, Solar Essence 1.]
(Description: A complete array pattern, embedding the temperature of the sun into the finely carved stone plate.)
Set the quantity to 1.
First, test its effect.
Select production.
[A hundredfold amplification triggered, receiving 101 Exquisitely Carved Sun Array Stone Slabs.]
Puff, puff, puff!!
Pieces of stone slabs carved with sun array patterns appeared out of nowhere.
101 pieces scattered about.
The originally damp ground started to emit a wisp of white smoke, and Fang Hao could distinctly feel the atmosphere heating up by his side.
“Yanshou!”
“My Lord.”
“Arrange for the soldiers to carry these stone slabs down and test them,” instructed Fang Hao.
“Yes, my Lord.”
Yanshou agreed, immediately summoning several skeleton soldiers to carry the stone slabs down.
[Level 7 Troop Hiding Cave: Maximum capacity 500,000.]
There were 750,000 soldiers in the territory, of which 500,000 were in the Troop Hiding Cave, while 150,000 were performing various tasks around the perimeter.
Once 100 slabs were carried down, a certain effect was indeed achieved.
The area of the Troop Hiding Cave far exceeded that of the Red Duke’s underground chamber, hence more stone slabs were needed.
Fang Hao made them again.
The quantity of the[Exquisitely Carved Sun Array Stone Slabs]was increased to 500, finally achieving the effect that Fang Hao wanted.
The entire space was in a high-temperature and dry state.
In the future, Yanshou only needed to rotate the patrolling soldiers to ensure they stay dry.
Yanshou began to command the soldiers to place the stone slabs in the Troop Hiding Cave.
Fang Hao, wearing a raincoat, proceeded to a nearby open space and made a lot of Exquisitely Carved Sun Array Stone Slabs.
He called over Demitrija and Meatfist, among other heroes, and had them ride Bone Dragons to deliver the sun stone slabs to the territories where the undead soldiers were stationed.
In this way, he wanted to prevent damage to the undead from the damp weather.
As for Dong Jiayue and Kong Yong, he traded the stone slabs to them via the trade channel, and then the two of them delivered them to the skeleton heroes.
In short, the goal was to minimize the damage that this kind of weather could do to the skeleton soldiers.
After arranging everything, only then did Fang Hao return to the lord’s manor.
…
Upon entering his room, Eira helped him change out of his wet clothes.
“Eira, there are some sun stone slabs outside the door. Have the maids each take one, it’s cold outside, everyone don’t catch a cold,” Fang Hao told Eira.
“Oh, okay, master,” Eira immediately relayed the order.
The maids ran over quickly, picked up the sun stone slabs, and carried them back to their own quarters.
Fang Hao’s situation here was much better than others.
Even the maids’ quarters had installed glass windows, which could greatly block the rainwater and cold air.
With the addition of the current sun stone slabs to withstand the autumn temperature, there was absolutely no problem.
More than that, the maids’ work had also come to a halt these past few days.
With such heavy rain, there was no way they could work even if they wanted to.
…
After having lunch.
Fang Hao lay down on the bed with his head resting on Eira’s slender thigh, watching everyone chat in the regional channel.
In this kind of weather, there was nothing to do.
They could only chat together to pass the boring time.
Bang, bang, bang!!
At that moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
A maid’s voice came, “Master, Lord Nisbit is waiting for you in the hall.”
“Oh, I’ll be right down,” Fang Hao immediately sat up.
Nisbit was a general term for a type of soldier species, and since he had recruited 101 Nisbits all at once through the hundredfold amplification, each with independent intelligence, he had divided them into Nis1 to Nis101.
He quickly got dressed and rushed downstairs.
Then he saw 18 Nisbits standing orderly in the hall.
Upon seeing Fang Hao come down, they all saluted at once, “Lord.”
“Mm.” Fang Hao nodded.
At the same time, he noticed something off about several of the Nisbits.
The name of the leading Nis1 had changed.
[Desert Death God – Nisbit (Green Tier Five)]
There were also 4 others with several name changes.
They were taller, reaching up to five meters high, like gigantic statues, towering in the center of the hall.
Seeing this, Fang Hao immediately understood why they had come.
Half a month ago, Fang Hao gave 18 Hero Hearts to Nisbit and let them select 18 Nisbits to undergo the Hero Trial.
It seemed that today the trial had ended, and a portion had successfully advanced to become hero units.
Nis1 took a step forward, knelt on one knee, and said, “My Lord, out of the 18 who undertook the trial, 5 have successfully advanced to heroes.”
