Chapter 520: Chapter 429, Purple Suit_2

[Damage: Level 5 Damage]

[Ability: Additional 24% Attack Power based on ‘Movement Speed’.]

（Description: No enemy can escape the pursuit of thunder.）

The Thunderblade Halberd is a long-handled halberd weapon.

In addition to Level 5 Damage, the weapon possesses an ability that increases the Attack Power by 24% based on Movement Speed.

In other words, the quicker you run, the more Attack Power you additionally gain.

Actually, this weapon should be more suitable for cavalry use.

There are no outstanding cavalry in my Undead camp.

On the other hand, I recently acquired a blueprint for the construction of a human [Lionheart Knight Camp].

I could construct the Lionheart Knight Camp, recruit knights, and ensure my safety when I go to Lyss City again.

Lyss City is becoming more and more chaotic right now.

After reviewing all the equipment.

The Skeleton Hero Yan Shou, waiting beside, had already been patient for a long time.

“Yan Shou.” Fang Hao called out softly.

Yan Shou stepped forward, “My Lord.”

“Command the soldiers to wear these equipment,” said Fang Hao.

“Yes, My Lord.”

Yan Shou began to gather forces immediately, and let the soldiers start changing into newly produced equipment.

Fang Hao also selected ten sets of [Temple Guard Suits] and [Thunderblade 3-piece Sets] from the equipment, and stored them in his storage space.

If these ten sets of equipments are to be divided, one set each for myself and the Demon Doll.

The remaining few sets are intended for Dong Jiayue and Kong Yong to deal with the Demon Rat challenge in a few days.

It just so happens that Dong Jiayue is good at using long-handled weapons.

Spears and halberds should be roughly the same, right?

Both are quite long.

As for other people, once there are enough Fine Iron, Fang Hao can continue to produce more equipment.

…

Yan Shou was commanding the soldiers to change their equipment.

Fang Hao returned to his mansion, and sent eight sets of equipment to Dong Jiayue and Kong Yong through the trade channel.

“Holy cow, purple equipment, thank you, boss.” Kong Yong replied immediately after receiving the equipment.

“Um, you keep one set, and give the other set to Blood Hunter,” said Fang Hao.

“Understood, thank you, boss. I owe you one.”

Kong Yong’s territory is in Crescent Heights.

There are not many villages there and also no powerful enemies.

With neither danger nor opportunities, and the soldiers in the city wearing only white and green equipment.

This time, getting a set of purple equipment, he felt like he was dreaming.

Meanwhile, Dong Jiayue also received Fang Hao’s equipment.

But her demeanor was much more placid.

“Thank you, Brother Hao,” Dong Jiayue said.

“I see, you keep one set, and give the rest to Black Sword and several other heroes, be careful,” Fang Hao repeated.

“Alright, Brother Hao.”

After a brief reply, she ended the conversation between the two.

Afternoon.

Lorrey came to report the reconnaissance situation on the Demon Rat’s spawn spots.

“My Lord, we have discovered four large underground caves outside the city, each location is populated by hundreds of individual caves. We inspected them, the caves were wrapped in energy and were inaccessible.” Lorrey said while passing a map.

The map was hand-drawn, with the city where Fang Hao was located on the center.

At the four directions of east, south, west, and north of the city, four locations were marked, representing the positions of the four sets of underground caves.

As for what Lorrey meant by the caves being protected by energy and being inaccessible.

This meant that the mission time had not arrived yet.

Monsters would only spawn in the caves once the mission time has come.

Just as Fang Hao was about to ask Lorrey to take him to inspect the peculiar caves.

Eira called from the kitchen to announce that dinner was ready.

In an instant.

Lorrey immediately dashed into the dining room and obediently sat in a seat.

The speed was so fast that Fang Hao took a moment to react.

At this point, Fang Hao finally understood.

This Lorrey, purposely came during mealtime, intending to partake in the meal here.

Fang Hao packed up the map and joined the others for a meal in the dining room.

Anjia also came downstairs, where she quietly chatted with Lorrey.

After dinner.

Lorrey led Fang Hao and others to an underground burrow gathering place.

The group passed through a forest.

They arrived at the gathering area Lorrey had been talking about.

At first glance, the ground was filled with burrows nearly one meter in diameter.

The entrance of each burrow was reinforced with sticks and rubble, and the walls on either side were incredibly rough.

It could be affirmed that these burrows.

Were the spawn points of Demon Rats for the migration mission.

Otherwise, with so many burrows here, Fang Hao wouldn’t have missed them previously.

The burrows were protected by an unknown energy force which pushed back any stone that was thrown in.

The inside of the burrow was pitch black, and it was impossible to see where it led or whether Demon Rats were already present inside.

“So these are the spots where the enemies appear? Crawling out from the ground?” Anjia curiously asked.

“Yes, Lorrey investigated and found four of such burrow gathering areas,” Fang Hao replied.

Fang Hao then explained to Demitrija and Rockhead about the Demon Rats’ plans to invade their territory.

“Master, what’s your intention?” Demitrija asked further.

Fang Hao pondered for a moment and said: “We have ample defense forces within our base. I plan to let the four of us each command an army and be well-prepared in advance. As soon as the enemies appear, immediately launch a counterattack.”

His idea was quite simple; his advantage over others was his plentiful forces.

Other Lords might need to rely on their cities as defense points, rallying their forces to wipe out the invading enemies, but Fang Hao didn’t need to do so.

Since he already knew the enemy spawn points, why not set up an ambush ahead of time and eliminate the enemies the moment they appear.

Moreover, with his three heroes and himself, they had the perfect number to guard the four gathering places.

“I agree with your idea, Master. With this, we can also prevent the enemy from fleeing in defeat and affecting the surrounding villages,” Demitrija agreed.

Anjia and Lorrey were chatting to one side, and Rockhead, standing straight to the side, didn’t seem interested in expressing his opinion.

Fang Hao then declared: “Demetrija will take charge of the enemy’s base in the south, Anjia will be in charge of the west, and Rockhead will be in charge of the north, while I will be in charge of the east. Any questions?”

“Yes, Master.”

“No.”

The three of them responded one after another.

Fang Hao had his own reasons for this arrangement.

The south side was close to the human city of Pruell. To prevent any issues, the strongest Demitrija was assigned there.

The western woods were hard to traverse due to a mountain area inhabited by ogres, but Anjia’s Pathfinding skill assured that the heroic army’s speed wouldn’t be affected on difficult terrain.

The northern and eastern sides were generally similar.

Fang Hao chose the east for himself and assigned the north to Rockhead.

Seeing no objections, Fang Hao said: “Alright, that’s the plan for now. The Demon Rats will be attacking the day after tomorrow. Go back and prepare your troops accordingly, then set up a defence at your respective places!”

Yes, Master.”

The crowd returned to the city, and the external forces began to mobilise swiftly.

Fang Hao too, mobilised an army of 200,000 and headed straight to the gathering place in the east.

Additionally, a large number of Tauren guards were arranged near the eastern Bronze Bull City to help Fang Hao convey orders.

After all, the army was indeed huge.

Relying solely on Fang Hao, such a large army might struggle to operate.

The other three locations were also gathering forces from nearby cities to help Demitrija and others set up the defense.

Firstly, the Skeleton Warriors were ordered to fully enclose the burrow in a semi-circle.

The front row consisted of Skeleton Warriors, the second row were spear bearers.

Sharp spears pierced through the gaps in the shields, pointing forwards.

The second and third rows consisted of archers, although this time Fang Hao had equipped them with the “Fine Iron Musket” and “Misfortune Strike Crossbow”.

In a mid-range encirclement battle like this, the musket’s power and accuracy could be better utilised.

And the crossbow would make up for the time it took to reload the muskets, ensuring continuous output.

Behind the archers were the two-handed sword “Barren Tomb Guards” who could react promptly if any accident occurred.

Further behind were the mages, Bone Dragons, Nisbit, and fifty thousand Skeleton Giant Bats.

Fang Hao continued to set up a large number of spike pits and traps.

They were placed at the forefront of the formation.

With everything prepared, all they needed was for the mission to start.
