Chapter 100: Chapter 99: A New Type of Soldier has Appeared (Please bookmark and like ~!)_1

Located at the westernmost part of the territory, there was originally a dense forest with grey wolves, goblins, and other monsters frequently emerging.

However, today, the trees here are sparse, and what one can see the most are tree stumps with unsmooth and rough cut marks — after all, the skeleton warriors are not professional woodcutters, and though their swords might be sharp and their strength considerable, they always get a bit too enthusiastic when chopping down trees.

Cutting straight, cutting backwards, cutting diagonally, cutting vertically — they would chop in all sorts of crazy ways.

Being able to chop down trees was already an indication of some level of intelligence. The great lord Shepherd was not demanding more, but the area’s environment was a bit nauseating, especially when looking down from high above through his field of vision.

It was as if a dense head of hair had been almost entirely shaved off, with only random tufts of tiny black hair remaining unevenly scattered.

This scenario would soon be a thing of the past.

“Confirm”!

Rumbling…

A noise several times louder than the one made by constructing the previous specialty building emerged from the western end of the territory.

The Dead Bones, informed in advance, didn’t panic but simply commanded some troops to stand by at a distance, preparing to kill any fleeing monsters that might appear.

Within Mu Yuan’s view,

Thick black mist emerged, akin to when the General Dead Bone exerted his full strength. Within a blink, it spread out several hundred meters.

The ground within the black mist gradually withered, looking like an ancient burial ground that had buried countless dry bones and changed over time.

Under the black mist, the uneven tree stumps withered and seemed to become rotten black stones.

The remaining ten or twenty big trees in the vicinity also quickly withered within a dozen or so seconds. Then, like hair falling from a critically ill person’s head, they rustled and all fell off blown by a breeze.

Upon falling to the ground, the withered yellow leaves continued to wither, and very soon they became like burned pieces of paper, leaving nothing but rotting spots of grayish black ash.

The withered trees, devoid of any leaves, appeared like monstrous beasts baring fangs and claws under the black mist.

If one were to walk in, it would undoubtedly give one the creeps.

“Fortunately, I built the Skeleton Cemetery at the very western end of the territory, which is still quite far from the core area.”

Skeleton troops are good, but living in such a gloomy environment…

Damn it!

This environment, rich in undead energy, benefits the skeletons and spirits, but it’s harmful for ordinary humans.

The black mist didn’t spread outward, but remained constrained within a few hundred meters.

On one side was bright sunlight, on the other was a cold and stern atmosphere.

Only a thin line of separation.

By this point, the ground at the core of the black mist slowly ascended, creating several heaps of earth resembling graves, with dry bones poking out from the gray soil.

These were merely environmental props, all guarding the center – a giant tomb-like mound nearly six to seven meters high.

On the side facing the Lord’s Altar, a door over two meters tall was wide open, appearing like a deep black hole.

“The troop-building structure, the Skeleton Cemetery, is indeed good, I’m very content. However ”

If Lu Renyi, ranked 49th, can have the troop building ‘Wild Wolf Den’, then he himself should surely have more than just the ‘Skeleton Cemetery’.

There must be a second troop building.

This certainly goes against past patterns, but it’s not surprising.

“I originally thought I would get a higher-order troop structure, but it seems like I was mistaken After thinking carefully, quantity is indeed what I need

more of.”

Even so, there’s still a bit of regret.

If a low-level building like the Skeleton Cemetery has so many special effects, what would a truly high-level building look like?

I’ll have a chance to see in the future

*Ding!*

The final gift of light has descended.

Alert: You have received the third-order troop building “Treeman Forest.”

Mu Yuan:”!!!”

“Treeman Forest”

“Effect One: After a certain period of time, a certain number of ’Treeman (rare*)’ can be recruited. There is also a small chance of recruiting ‘Treeman Guards (Rare***)’, and a very small chance of recruiting Ancient Treeman (Excellent*)”‘

“Effect Two: Within the range of ‘Treeman Forest’, all trees can become ‘eyelines’ of the treeman. Vegetation growth will be more lush and there is a slight chance of generating low-level special materials.”

“Effect Three: In the ‘Treeman Forest’ area, levels of the treeman type troops can slowly rise. At the same time, the strength and recovery power of the Treemen will increase.”

“Effect Four: Within the influence of Treeman Forest, the cultivation speed of natural fauna is increased, and the probability of breakthrough is slightly increased.”

“Note: Under certain conditions, ‘[Tree Man’s Forest]’ can be upgraded to the ‘Treeman Courtyard’, a Tfour-order Troop Building.”

Lord Shepherd let out a gasp.

The Tree Man’s Forest was naturally situated far from the Skeleton Cemetery.

Mu Yuan chose a location on the far eastern end of his territory, where the trees hadn’t been extensively chopped down, making it suitable for future settlement for the Tree Men.

He snapped his fingers.

Buzz

The environment on the east side began to transform drastically, creating an even bigger commotion!

Giant trees grew rapidly as if stimulated by hormones. In the blink of an eye, century-old trees sprawled across the east of Tianyuan Territory. It even extended beyond the territory, making the forest there even denser.

The leaves swayed gently, releasing refreshing air that cleansed the lungs, even clearing out some of the stench from the distant battlefield that was yet to be burned clean.

The range of the Tree Man’s Forest, both in terms of its coverage and influence, was larger than the Skeleton Cemetery.

However, on first glance, it wasn’t as eye-catching as the eerie cemetery, making it seem as if Tianyuan Territory had always been nestled within a dense ancient forest.

Deep into the lush forest and at the heart of it, there was a large arch created by intertwined branches of two ancient trees. This was the true recruiting spot of the Tree Man’s Forest.

The Tree Man’s Forest had officially been established.

It was only at this moment that the divine light from the rule’s gift officially disappeared at the end of the sky.

The trial was over, and it was time for a new start.

“Let’s take a look at the state of things in the troop building.”

Mu Yuan stood up, conjured a Skeleton Warhorse—a versatile but not particularly outstanding combat asset—and rode it towards the cemetery in the west of the territory. He was accompanied by the Emperor Dead Bone, ‘Bone Two’ and ‘Bone Three’, and the skeleton clan, as well as a curious Duo Lai.

Upon entering the cemetery, ‘Bone Two’, ’Bone Three1, and the rest of the skeletons reverted back to their active state, just like fish returning to water.

However, Duo Lai, being originally a Slime, seemed a bit more sluggish and didn’t liven up.

Mu Yuan was unaffected, this was thanks to his status as a lord.

He approached the large burial mound and walked into the dark entrance. The interior was surprisingly open, with ethereal Soul Flames illuminating a green light.

Numerous skeletal projections overlapped each other. As he walked in, a prompt appeared in a timely manner.

“Prompt: The current recruit limit is 200 soldiers and every month, 50 additional units can be recruited. The maximum number of units that can be stored for recruitment is 500.”

“Prompt: Would you like to recruit 200 units? This recruitment will cost a total of tooog of Soul Sand.”

“Yes!”

Crack-!

Crack-!

Inside the massive burial mound, one after another, Little Skeletons crawled out from the burial ground, and their numbers kept increasing.

So many that the space inside the burial mound couldn’t hold them all and they started spilling out.

Mu Yuan had naturally retreated to the outside a long time ago.

He saw a large group of skeletons walking out of the mound. Among them, at the front, were a couple dozen armored Skeleton Soldiers and two Skeleton Warriors.

“Prompt: The first use of a troop building will always crit, you have recruited an exceptional Skeleton Warrior.”

One of the Skeleton Warriors walked with such an impressive and vigorous posture, he was like a celebrity among the skeletons.

As soon as he was born, he already had wisdom. It was as if he was a born leader.

The attitude of a general!

A promising future!

He came with a predetermined mission, to assist the Lord, helping him ascend step by step to the peak.

That is, until he saw Emperor Dead Bone, as well as Bone Two, Bone Three, Bone N…

Ah, this…

It seems he’s a bit late.
