By the time he returned to the estate, it was already about three or four in the afternoon.
After dismounting from the Bone Dragon, Fang Hao ordered, “Throw these corpses into the Skeleton Conversion Field, and send this bat wing to the Viscera Museum.”
The Barren Tomb Guards began to move as per his orders.
The harvest this time had been quite smooth.
Fang Hao had obtained what he wanted, but he was still one body short of completing his final task.
There was no need to guess which organ it was.
Only the body was left.
However, he still hadn’t found any clues for the last body part.
“Master, your lunch is ready,” Eira said as she walked over.
“Hmm, good.”
Fang Hao returned to the main hall, and Eira served the prepared lunch.
The lunch was a bit simple, but he was rather hungry after being busy all morning.
“Eira, I realized today that Fang Hao is quite pale,” Anjia commented after recounting their temple adventure, speaking casually.
Uh-huh!
Fang Hao cleared his throat.
Eira narrowed her eyes and looked at the two of them, curiously asking, “How did you find out?”
“I discovered it in the woods, while playing with a caterpillar,” Anjia casually replied.
Pfft!
Fang Hao started choking on his fruit wine, covering his mouth.
Did they just give him a nickname so quickly?
“A caterpillar?”
“Yeah, it was this long, soft, and felt nice to touch,” Anjia demonstrated with her hand.
Although Fang Hao was a seasoned individual, he had a hard time keeping a straight face against Anjia’s words.
He said, “Uh! Anjia, don’t cross the line, that’s personal attack.”
Caught off guard, Anjia asked, “What personal attack?” She looked at Eira again, “Eira, have you seen a caterpillar before?”
Eira’s face instantly blushed, and her big ears started turning red as well, “Ah? I, I haven’t seen one.”
” Then I will catch one for you next time.”
“Catch?”
“Yeah, I caught two today, one white and one green. They were really fun to play with, always arching forward.”
“Ah? Caterpillar.”
“Yeah!”
“Haha! I’ve seen it, there are lots of them on the trees,” Eira laughed out loud, her cheeks still flushed.
Fang Hao sighed heavily.
He suddenly felt an itch in his belly.
This brat, she actually played with caterpillars on his belly, that’s too over the line.
He would take the chance to teach her a lesson when the opportunity arises.
Their lunch time ended amidst the girls’ giggling and laughing.
Just as he stepped out of the mansion,
Many orcs were seen walking over from a distance.
Earlier in the morning, before going to the temple, Fang Hao used God’s Presence to contact Petty, the Pigmen clan leader.
He asked her to send troops to the main city in the afternoon.
This group was the orc squad arranged by Petty.
The squad was led by Bolton, an old acquaintance from the Pigmen clan.
Dressed in metal plate armor and carrying a longsword at his waist,
Fang Hao hadn’t seen Bolton in a while.
He looked much sturdier than before.
“Lord,” Bolton quickly saluted.
The Orcs behind him also knelt to salute.
These Orcs were from various large and small Orc villages in the north of the territory.
After being unified by Fang Hao, they began to coexist peacefully.
The Pigmen Village, as the first village to affiliate with Fang Hao, had also gained some status among the Orc villages in the north.
“Hmm, you all have had a hard trip, everyone can get up,” Fang Hao nodded and said.
The Orcs stood up, still standing respectfully to the side.
This place is not their little village.
The hundreds of thousands of Undead outside the city made it impossible for them to relax, leaving their hearts in suspense.
“Lord, what should we do on this visit?” Bolton asked.
“Well, wait a moment.” Fang Hao finished speaking, and called a maid, “Go and call Demitrija.”
“As you wish, Master.” The maid ran towards Demitrija’s residence.
After a while, Demitrija came over wearing armor and holding a longsword.
Only then did Fang Hao say to the Orcs present: “This is Demitrija, a strong orange Level 8 Hero. This time you will follow his command and participate in a certain-to-win battle. After returning, I will reward you according to your performance.”
The Orcs’ mouths fell open when they heard that the Lizardman before them was a Level 8 orange Hero.
The highest level they had heard of was Skullcrusher from the Coldwind Mountain Range.
But he was only a Level 9 purple hero.
He simply can’t compare with the Lizardman in front of them.
Moreover, Fang Hao promised to reward them when they returned.
Expressions of joy appeared on their faces.
They were informed before they left that they would participate in battle.
Now Fang Hao’s promise is a pleasant surprise.
And the reward promised by the Lord must be satisfactory.
Even the most destitute Pigmen Village became the best among all villages after Fang Hao’s support.
The living conditions here are much better than those of the large Orc tribes.
If they accomplish something and receive Fang Hao’s support, their own villages could benefit and get even better.
The Orcs immediately changed their posture, respectfully saluting Demitrija, “We’ve met Sir Demitrija, and we’re willing to followyour orders.”
“Alright, follow me, and I will explain the battle arrangements to you.” Demitrija began to give his final instructions.
These Orcs were not here for battle, but to act as messengers.
With such a large number of Undead soldiers, commands need to be issued in group form.
“Yes, Sir Demitrija.”
The Orcs followed Demitrija and left.
Demitrija left with the Orcs.
Fang Hao was not idle, either. He needed to go to the barracks and prepare the troops required by Demitrija for his expedition.
He first headed to the Burial Grounds for recruitment.
There are currently two kinds of troops in the Burial Grounds: Skeleton Warriors and Skeleton Spearmen.
Both types of troops are Level 2.
Although the level is low, the battlefield also requires a combination of different troop types.
There could be cases of one type of troop countering another.
Moreover, with plenty of Wriggling Spines in his possession, he doesn’t lack expendable resources.
” [Recruitable: Skeleton Warrior, Cost: 2 Wriggling Spines, Do you want to recruit?]”
He set the recruitment number to 1000.
” [Hundredfold Amplification Triggered, Recruiting 101,000 Skeleton Warriors]”
A large variety of lights flashed, and 100,000 Skeleton Warriors filled up the open space in front, rooftops, and large areas within the territory.
After seeing this situation many times, there was no surprise anymore.
After asking the Skeleton Warriors to stand by outside, Fang Hao continued to recruit Spearmen.
“[Recruitable: Skeleton Spearman, Cost: 2 Wriggling Spines, Do you want to recruit?]”
The number was still set to 1000.
“[Hundredfold Amplification Triggered, Recruiting 101,000 Skeleton Spearmen]”
Again, a large group of Skeleton Spearmen appeared.
They were also ordered to wait outside the door.
After recruiting troops from the Burial Grounds, Fang Hao proceeded to the Giant Stone Tomb, Archery Range, and Undead Mage Tower.
Troop recruitment was carried out in separate batches.
” [Hundredfold Amplification Triggered, Recruiting 202,000 Barren Tomb Guards]”
” [Hundredfold Amplification Triggered, Recruiting 202,000 Skeleton Archers]”
” [Hundredfold Amplification Triggered, Recruiting 202,000 Undead Mages]”
A total of 800,000 soldiers, an imposing army, assembled outside the territory.
