Chapter 28: Chapter 28, Demolition Task (Brothers, if you have recommendation votes, cast them._1)

Fang Hao led his laboring Skeletons out of his territory.

The team was a long, thin dragon, carrying pushcarts and tools, heading towards Shadowwind Castle.

Within the territory, the quantity of wood and stone far exceeded the need. The Skeletons’ mining, plus the material from food sales every day. It far exceeded what was needed for the development of the territory. Fang Hao had even specifically cordoned off a vacant lot outside his territory with wooden fences.

Just for storing the surplus basic supplies.

Since no one would steal or take these supplies, there was no fear of loss.

So when Fang Hao discovered a way to get stone bricks, he called up all the laboring Skeletons, except the farmers.

He suspended the collection of basic resources and provided the castle with bricks instead.

This time Fang Hao chose not to utilize God’s Presence, but led the team to the castle himself.

Previously, controlling the Skeletons in combat had put a huge strain on his spiritual power.

Plus, all the monsters in the castle had already been eliminated, so there was no need to worry about any danger.

He lay on the cart, guiding the Skeletons in the right direction.

Soon, the group arrived at the castle.

The castle courtyard was now in total chaos.

All the furniture and items in the castle had been taken out, piled up into a small mountain.

A crushed copper lampstand was yanked out from the piled junk, apparently scrapped.

It was obvious that the Skeleton soldiers could execute the order to loot, but were unable to discern the value of the items, or how to place them without damaging them.

But there was no way around it. The intelligence of these Skeletons wasn’t high. To be able to do as much as this was already quite commendable.

All the retrieved blueprints were entered into the Book of Lords.

The collected scrolls, blood stones, and other items were put into a bag. The bag wasn’t a system bag; he’d made it himself from leather ropes. As for the Flame Ring, it was worn directly on his left hand.

He spread out his left palm and thought, ‘Flame Fireball’.

Whoosh!

A fireball the size of a fist, with flames swirling around it, floated above his palm, exuding intense heat.

But his left hand felt no heat or burning sensation.

“Go!”

Aiming at a dilapidated stele not far away, he swung his left hand upwards, and the fireball flew out.

Boom!

A dull thud.

The Flame Fireball instantly hit the targeted stele.

The terrifying destructive power snapped the stele in half, and the surface of the stele caught fire and burned for about three minutes, even though there was nothing flammable.

“Not bad, impressive power.” Fang Hao was satisfied with the power of the fireball.

After using it, the Flame Fireball went into a one-hour skill cooldown.

After testing the power of the ring, Fang Hao turned his attention back to the laboring Skeletons standing by.

He stepped up onto a raised platform and shouted to the Skeletons below. “Alright, your job now is to dismantle the castle and sort the materials.” He’d rallied all the laborers here to acquire enough materials to upgrade as soon as possible.

The laboring Skeletons got moving, taking up the hoes on the cart.

“You guys are in charge of the cart. Transport all the goods back to the territory.”

Fang Hao kept 5000 Skeleton soldiers. Among them, 1000 were responsible for transporting the materials gathered by the laboring Skeletons back to the territory.

The remaining ones were in charge of the nearby area’s safety.

There were some wandering beasts and warcrafts around, which might come to harass.

The Skeleton soldiers loaded the furniture in the castle courtyard onto carts and headed towards the territory.

Fang Hao got back into the cart, opened the Book of Lords and passed the time. As soon as he opened the Book of Lords, several private messages popped up.

Fang Hao bro, do you have any more iron pots? Can I get one with Trace of the Earth?”

Trace of the Earth, a necessary material when building a blue-grade spiritual field, had been encountered.

However, most people were still unaware of the use of this material. Once they got it, they didn’t know where to use it.

Fang Hao thought for a while and said, “There are many materials needed to make an iron pot. If you add a piece of iron, I can make it for you when I get back.”

The other party fell silent for a while and then replied, “Okay, when can it be made?”

“In about twenty minutes. I’m currently in the field. I’ll do it when I return.”

“Okay, thank you, Fang Hao bro.”

Right now, blueprints are still scarce.

And scarce blueprints for manufactured items became in great demand.

Some people got a rare blueprint, made a product, and then quoted a high price.

Compared to these people, the things Fang Hao sold seemed logical.

What they didn’t know was that, with the bolster of a hundred-fold amplification, no matter how Fang Hao sold, there was a profit to be made.

He disconnected from the first person and then received the second private chat.

“Handsome, I want to exchange some iron axes with you.”

“Handsome?”

“Are you there? Handsome, you didn’t get into trouble, did you?”

Due to his previous state of invoking God’s Presence, controlling the Skeleton soldiers to fight against the monsters in the castle, he didn’t notice the messages.

This person actually sent several messages in a row, seeming quite hurried.

I m here. Iron axes can be exchanged, how many do you want to get?” Fang Hao replied at this time.

Fifteen iron axes. Based on the price, that’s forty-five units of iron, right?”

The other party responded instantly.

It seemed like they’re also using the Book of Lords.

Hearing the other party’s offer, Fang Hao was slightly startled.

Even though he’s been in this world for a few days, it’s still rare for someone to pull out so much iron all at once.

It seemed that the other party had found a way to steadily obtain iron resources.

“No problem. It will take about twenty minutes. I’ll make them when I return to my territory.” Fang Hao said.

“Okay.”

By the way, can you reveal how you got so much iron ore?” Fang Hao asked again.

Though iron was not considered a scarce resource, it was difficult to obtain at present.

There’s nothing to hide about that. I found an iron deposit near my territory and I can mine some resources from there. By the way, do you have an iron pickaxe? I can trade for it.”

After the explanation, he added another sentence.

Not all of the fifteen traded iron axes were used for logging.

Some were used to arm the militia soldiers. After all, to them, the iron axe was considered a weapon.

“I don’t have the blueprint for the iron pickaxe at the moment. Once the iron

axes are made, I’ll contact you.”

“Okay, thanks!”

He ended the chat with the two people.

The convoy was now nearing the territory.

Just as he was about to check what everyone was chatting on the public

channel, angry shouts of battle were heard from a distance.

The Skeletons near his territory wouldn’t be shouting like this.

In other words, a battle was happening nearby.

Fang Hao felt a tightness in his chest. He immediately stood on the roof of the cart, looking in the direction of the noise.

As expected, near his territory.

A team driving a horse carriage was already surrounded by Skeletons from the territory.

A fierce battle was taking place.

In the face of the ruthless and fearless fighting of the Skeleton soldiers, the other party suffered heavy casualties. Complete annihilation was only a matter of time.

You take the spoils back to the storage area outside the territory.” Fang Hao jumped off the cart, having given the order.

The Skeleton soldiers carrying the goods continued to head towards the territory.

Meanwhile, Fang Hao went towards where the battle was taking place.

“Alright, stop the attack and surround them.”

Fang Hao’s voice rang out.

All the Skeleton soldiers stopped their hacking action and enclosed the enemies in the middle..
