Apocalypse Lord - Chapter 59
The 132th day.
In the morning, Kang Yueyou woke up, the first thing after getting up was to check if there were any mobs around the territory.
“Warriors stand up!!”
A long way away, I saw the player and the mobs fighting each other. The night watch player looked tired, afraid that he hadn’t rested all night.
Upon seeing this, Kang Yue’s heart was cold for a while. She thought that the monster attack was just a sudden situation, and it would be all right after a day or a half day. Unexpectedly, there is a steady stream of monsters, and there is no end in sight.
How can this go out to collect?
How can this go hunting?
Kang Yue held his forehead in annoyance.
“It seems that you can only choose a region to join the territorial offensive and defensive battle.” She took a deep breath and looked solemn. “I hope that large teams will not be so overbearing. At least some small fish and shrimp will be reserved for single players.”
Having said that, she felt a little unsure about seeing too many arrogant and large team members.
But the monster surrounded the town and couldn’t get out. She couldn’t wait to starve to death. She could only bite the bullet and try.
After some investigation, Kang Yue chose to go to the south.
In order to avoid causing hostility, she is cautious, step by step, tentatively approaching.
“Hey, where did you come from? Is there a team?” An archer saw her and asked.
“I don’t have a team. I usually hunt and live alone. Now… I can’t get out and cut off the source of income.” Kang Yue answered truthfully.
“Then do you want to join us?” The archer asked smoothly, “Form a group, distribute the drops according to the contribution, and try to ensure fairness.”
What kind of fairy team is this? He took the initiative to accept her, and said that she will be distributed according to the contribution rate, and try to ensure fairness!
Kang Yue was stunned.
After thinking about it, she asked, “If you don’t get used to it, can you leave by yourself?”
What if, under the guise of fairness, lie to her as free labor? Have to guard.
“Yes,” the archer said freely, “the four directions, southeast, northwest, and wherever you go are the same.”
“Lingyun Town has a top boss watching. It is said that anyone who snatches and drops, attacks fellow players, and directly expels the territory.”
“There are players who don’t believe in evil and insist on trying the law with their own body, and they just get cold. How many people have seen it with their own eyes, and they are all going to behave well at the moment. If you don’t dare to mess around, you can rest assured!”
Kang Yue was stunned, and sighed for a long time, “Lingyun Town is really a good place.”
It’s all doomsday and in order, so friendly to ordinary players!
**
After getting up in the morning, Yunling first asked the guards privately to find out the situation. Players who did not follow the order and relied on force and cleverness to profit for themselves were all kicked out of Lingyun Town, and then they leisurely paced for breakfast.
“Sorghum rice! Savoury sorghum rice!”
“Sweet potato pancakes! Sweet and crispy sweet potato pancakes!”
“Rougamo, delicious Roujiamo!”
Walking along the street, the cries are endless. The scent of food and snacks wafted out, almost pulling out the gluttons in the stomach.
Yunling stopped in front of the sorghum rice, “How to sell it?”
When someone asked, the stall owner immediately gave an introduction, “This is authentic sorghum rice! There are sorghum, wild vegetables, sauces, and shredded pork in it. How fragrant you smell it? Such a big bowl only costs 10 copper coins!”
Yunling just came over after hearing the scent, and checked the item’s attributes after hearing this.
【Name: Sorghum Rice】
Quality: Normal
Use effect: basic recovery speed +1 point of health / minute (lasting 1 hour)
Compared with the food in the restaurant, it is cheap and good quality.
“I want a bowl.” Yunling decisively paid out.
“Okay.” The stall owner happily collected the money, and then handed out the sorghum rice, “Just eat it here, and return the wooden bowl and wooden spoon to me after eating.”
“Okay.” Yunling sat down in a seat, holding a wooden bowl and eating slowly.
Checking the territory panel, I saw the data display–
【Name: Protective cover】
Health value: 13636/20000
Use effect: Block the enemy.
Basic recovery speed: 2 HP/minute
It is like a dying old man, trying to recover his health, but he is always on the verge of death.
Would the situation be better if the protective cover was upgraded to level 3? Yunling thought. If nothing else, at least the basic response speed will be improved.
However, it costs 100,000 copper coins to upgrade a level 2 building to level 3!
After the upgrade, there is almost no spare money on hand. In case of a fierce offensive, the protective shield is at risk…
Yunling thought about it again and again, and decided to wait a little longer.
**
After the meal, Yunling went to the blacksmith’s shop to receive the small animal traps she made.
Seeing the finished product, she was startled, “How come there are only 22?”
Blacksmith Armor has a sad face, “I need iron ore to make animal traps. I used a lot of iron pots, iron picks, kitchen knives, and iron shields before. At present, the materials are not enough, so I can only do so much.”
Yunling reacted.
Residents are trapped in the territory, unable to gather or hunt, and of course mining cannot be done.
With limited materials, it is not easy to make 22 small animal traps.
She didn’t blame the employees, only said, “If there are spare materials in the warehouse, remember to do more, I’m useful.”
“Yes.” The blacksmith A, B, C, Ding solemnly responded.
**
The so-called “small animal trap” is actually a small animal trap. Bury it in the soil and wait for the enemy to step on it.
Once the attack works, the movement speed will slow down significantly, and the enemy will naturally be slaughtered.
Because the number is scarce, Yunling buried all the traps on the east side to facilitate the NPC against the enemy.
“Hello.” A timid voice sounded, “Is there a shortage of people here? Can I join the team and defend the territory with you?”
Yun Ling raised his head and smiled gently, “The members here are all used to cooperating. If you add new people and re-run in, the killing efficiency will decrease. So we don’t hire people, you’d better go and look elsewhere.”
Although he was rejected, the other party was friendly and made sense.
The player didn’t entangle too much, and turned to the north to try his luck.
Looking at the vast expanse of wild land, Yun Ling said in his heart that as a lord, she had to control an area to ensure that the game materials had a stable source, so that it would be beneficial to the construction of the territory.
**
At the border of the small town, combat players are fighting **** battles.
In the middle of the town, life players do their best to make restoration items.
A master is making donkey rolls with dough.
Donkey Roll uses soybean noodles as the main material. The inner layer is bean paste, the middle is glutinous rice, and the outer layer is covered with soybean flour.
After the finished product is finished, the appearance is yellow, and it tastes delicious, sweet, waxy, and a strong aroma of soybeans. The taste is very good.
Not far away, an old grandma is making pancakes.
Add oil to the pan to preheat, first put a spoonful of batter. Spread out a round cake the size of a pot, and then add eggs.
When the egg is solidified, turn the dough over, add lettuce, bacon, and top with sweet sauce to make a piece of dough.
There are also people grilling lamb skewers, beef skewers, pork belly, and gluten. Sprinkle with cumin, sprinkle with the secret seasoning, the fragrance is enough to float for three miles!
Not to mention fighting players looking greedy, even life players themselves can’t help it.
This said, I have the ingredients, you help me make a pie, the other said you have a good sauce, and help me grill a few skewers of pork belly.
It didn’t take long for the life players to stop doing business, and they all ate…
**
The battle continues.
The players cooperated with each other and rested in shifts, and finally they could handle it. However, even so, if you are not careful, there will still be casualties.
“Be energized and be alert!” a team leader shouted loudly, “If the state is not right, retreat immediately. Don’t hold on to it, your life is critical!”
“The team members pay attention to cover and help their companions to evacuate.”
Everyone concentrated their attention and took it seriously with twelve minutes of energy, and the casualty rate was further reduced.
Mo Qi patrolled and found that none of the team members had died. He couldn’t help but sigh, “Health +100, basic recovery speed +2 health per minute, the gain status enjoyed by official residents is too powerful! This needs to be changed to other places, The team has been downsizing a long time ago. But in Lingyun Town, not only is there no dead, but it is easy to do.”
No matter how fierce the battle is, she can handle it with confidence, the difference is too big.
Leng Bai: “In other territories, recovery items will definitely be looted; in Lingyun Town, there are too many recovery items to sell. This is the gap.”
What the **** is it that there are too many to sell?
Mo Qi subconsciously wanted to argue, his mouth was slightly open, but he couldn’t say a word, because this was reality.
**
【Name: Small animal trap】
Quality: Normal
Durability: 16/20
Use effect: After stepping on the trap, trap the target or significantly/slightly slow down the target’s movement speed.
After Yunling arranged the animal traps scattered on the east side, she found that killing monsters was much easier.
Monsters continue to step on the trap and get trapped in place.
NPC set fire to siege, quickly destroy the target, winning is easy.
To talk about the only shortcoming, probably–
“The durability drops too fast!”
Yun Lingxin said that at the current rate, the small animal traps will be scrapped and useless.
Iron ore is used seven or eight, and there is no way to produce new small animal traps.
“You have to think of a way.” Yun Ling was lost in thought.
**
A wooden house in Lingyun Town.
More than thirty people gathered in the room for a meeting.
An assassin took the lead to speak, “It’s not a problem to stay in the territory all the time, we have to find a way to make money.”
As soon as the words were spoken, someone asked, “Aside from waiting patiently or joining the battle, what other way to deal with monsters besieging the territory?”
“That’s wrong.” The assassin smiled mysteriously and analyzed calmly, “I have been to the mission hall and found that the purchase price of ore has changed.”
Today’s price list is as follows-
【Acquisition of copper ore, 5 copper coins and 1 piece. 】
【Acquisition of iron ore, 7 copper coins and 1 piece. 】
[Acquisition of cold iron ore, 10 copper coins and 1 piece. 】
【Acquisition of black iron ore, 18 copper coins and 1 piece. 】
【Acquisition of Wujin ore, 35 copper coins and 1 piece. 】
No matter what you dig, you can make a fortune.
“I don’t agree! It’s too dangerous to go out!” The other person resolutely objected.
“Actually, it’s not that scary.” The assassin said again, “We are a 35-person team. Even if we encounter a beast tide after going out, we can still fight.”
“If you bring enough supplies, you can not only mine but also hunt.”
“You mean,” Tian Zhehan said slowly, “Our team is strong, can we go out as usual?”
“Yes.” The assassin nodded, “I caught fish fry last fall, and sold a lot in winter. The big guys are not badly equipped.”
“At present, the fish pond is still empty, and new fry must be caught and put in.”
“If you want to raise the fish fat and big, you need to collect ingredients and prepare feed.”
“In addition, the purchase price of ore is so high that it is totally worth it to go out.”
Seeing Tian Zhehan didn’t say a word, the next second, the assassin changed his words, “Of course, this is just a personal opinion. Whether or not to go out is up to the boss.”
After thinking about it for a long time, Tian Zhehan’s eyes were firm, “Go, ask for wealth and danger.”
**
Smithy.
A player hurriedly stepped into the store, walked in and asked, “Is there a machete?”
The first blacksmith replied, “Iron ore has been used up, and there is currently a lack of raw materials, so it is temporarily impossible to make.”
The player is stunned.
The raw materials are insufficient and the goods are out of stock. Until the raw materials are re-supplied, the NPC will not start making new equipment. This is the basic knowledge that the game knows from the beginning.
However, before that, the system shop in Lingyun Town had never lacked materials, so he had forgotten it.
In a daze, another person rushed into the blacksmith’s shop. He walked to the shelf and just wanted to buy, but found that there was no item he wanted on it.
The man hurriedly turned around and asked, “Where’s the short knife? Why is the short knife gone?”
Blacksmith Armor gave the same answer, “Iron ore has been used up, and there is currently a lack of raw materials, so it is temporarily impossible to make.”
The two customers looked at each other and could not speak for a long time.
The one who walked back in came back to his senses first, “What can I do? Wooden sticks and wooden spears are not good for monster tides! Let’s not say that they have low attack and are difficult to break, and they are especially easy to wear. God, the durability was -15 in one breath, and one was scrapped in about three days.”
“You can try the bronze sword.” Blacksmith Armor promotes other products in due course.
Player, “…”
“That’s all, buy a handful and use it alive.” He sighed, feeling helpless.
**
In the stone house, You Qingwen is checking inventory with Zheng Mingyue.
“143 pieces in white, 59 pieces in blue, and 6 pieces in purple, enough to support a period of time.”
After finishing the inventory, You Qingwen sighed lightly, her expression relaxed a little, “New equipment will be dropped during the monster fight, enough to support the end of the spring beast tide.”
Zheng Mingyue was very fortunate, “Fortunately, after the durability appeared, none of the equipment picked up was sold. Otherwise, I don’t know where to buy the equipment now.”
“Does the system store sell it?” You Qingwen wondered, “Although it’s a bit expensive, the quality is guaranteed.”
“Have you not heard?” Zheng Mingyue looked back in surprise, “The blacksmith’s shop lacks iron ore, and iron products are no longer for sale.”
You Qingwen, “…”
If the hoarding madman is like the lord of Lingyun Town, there will be a day when there is a shortage of materials? This world is crazy.
**
The wisdom of the people is endless. The lack of materials in a mere mere can not be difficult for the witty Lingyun Town players.
“Selling iron guns! Brand new iron guns, blue quality, only 200 copper coins!”
“Steel spear, blue quality, durability 33/40, 150 copper coins, come quickly.”
“Bronze stick, blue quality, durability 40/40, 220 copper coins can be taken away!”
“Steel bow, blue quality, durability 40/40. One price, 180 copper coins!”
…
In the system shop, there are 100 copper coins for one piece of white equipment and 500 copper coins for one piece of blue equipment, but transactions between players are not at this price.
A 40-50% discount is almost the market price, which can be changed hands and traded.
Recently, monsters have gone crazy and attacked the territory, and many players have gained a lot. Some items are not available, so they simply set up a stall on the spot, exchange for some practical items, or sell them for cash, and purchase new equipment.
A melee player walked out of the forge with bowed heads. Hearing the screams, I was first startled, and then there was an ecstasy in my heart.
Iron gun? Steel spear? Bronze stick?
he can! !
**
The 134th day.
With 140,000 copper coins in hand, Yunling finally decided to upgrade the building.
His eyes circled around “warehouses, mission halls, wood workshops, tailor shops, residential houses, protective covers, restaurants, ice storages, farmland, blacksmith shops”, and finally landed on the “protective covers”.
[The protective cover is upgraded to level 3. 】
[The upper limit of health is changed to 100000. 】
[Basic recovery speed: 5 points of life/minute. 】
“This is a lot harder than before.” Yunling closed the panel contentedly.
**
With sufficient strength, it is undoubtedly a good thing for monsters to encircle the town. The members of the hunting team do not even need to go out of the door, they can freely spawn monsters.
When I am thirsty, there is someone to prepare drinking water.
Hungry, there is a chef serving delicious meals.
If you are tired, say hello to your teammates and you can go to the side to rest.
At other times, you only need to try your best to output, pick and drop, and distribute everyone’s income fairly.
More than one person sighed, what kind of fairy day is this! I really want to live like this.
The celebration-like atmosphere lasted for ten days.
On the 145th day, there was a drizzle in the sky.
Mo Qi’s face was solemn, “Six straw hats and four clothes, rain gear is far from enough.”
It rained last year and was able to nest in the territory, doing nothing, not this year.
Monsters come, even if the rain will increase the durability of the equipment, even if the rain gear is not enough, you have to bite the bullet and put it in front.
Leng Bai whispered, “There are so many living players in Lingyun Town, maybe someone will make straw hats or fur clothes. Go out and ask later to see if you can buy them.”
Mo Qi is not optimistic, “There are nearly 3,000 players in Lingyun Town, even if someone can do it, it is difficult to supply.”
After all, pure manual work, the demand is too great.
“Maybe Lingyun Town can create miracles?” Leng Bai was full of expectations.
The team members lived in a stone house, and after the meal, they went out together.
In the territory, I saw some people holding umbrellas, some wearing hats/straw hats, and some wearing fur clothes, protecting the whole body tightly.
Mo Qi, “???”
She stood there and stared blankly, unable to recover for a long time.
The team members were shocked, “Did I have hallucinations in front of my eyes? One rain gear? Is there extra to sell on the street?”
At this moment, someone yelled, “My clothes, brand new clothes, 40 copper coins!”
“It turns out I am not only dizzy, but also auditory hallucinations. It must be the wrong way to open my eyes this morning.” The team members looked in a trance.
If there is a seemingly smiling smile in the cold white eyes, “Lingyun Town deserves to be the number one territory, and it always surprises people inadvertently.”
With that, he took the lead and said, “Let’s go shopping and buy rain gear.”
**
Smithy.
Yunling discovered that employees had newly created a batch of small animal traps. There are quite a few, there are a hundred.
She asked curiously, “Where did the raw materials come from?”
Blacksmith Jia reported, “A team went out to mine and got iron ore.”
“Someone also attacked enemy units and accidentally obtained iron ore as trophies.”
“Some people came to consult with materials and asked if they could forge equipment as required. The reward was ten iron ore and ten copper ore. I saw that the craft was not difficult, so I agreed.”
“You did a good job.” Yunling was very satisfied.
The first blacksmith lowered his head humbly and didn’t take credit.
It was raining outside the territory, and there were no customers in the shop. There are no outsiders, Yunling is much more casual.
She walked to the shelf, looked at it for a moment, and asked, “How is business lately?”
The blacksmith replied, “Iron pick, pocket knife, kitchen knife, short knife, steel knife, machete, bronze sword, chain mail, bronze helmet, bronze shield, iron shield, as long as you make it, you can’t sell it.”
Some equipment has simple craftsmanship and is extremely easy to replace, such as straw shoes.
Some equipment, such as steel knives, are complex and cannot be replaced.
Players can occasionally pick up one or two steel knives when fighting monsters, but there is nowhere to get them in the rest of the time.
So even if the system store price is too high, players can only pinch their noses.
There is no other reason, monopolizing the industry. Only this one provides long-term and stable supply, and other channels cannot obtain the necessary equipment.
Fortunately, the “Blacksmith’s Shop” was unlocked. Yunling secretly rejoiced.
After thinking about it, she said, “Small animal traps are sufficient for the time being, so you don’t need to prepare specially. Forge some more equipment, and the residents will use it.”
“Yes.” The blacksmith A, B, C, and Dingwu responded in unison.
**
Unconsciously, he had another 160,000 copper coins in his hand.
Looking at the nine alternatives of “warehouse, mission hall, carpentry workshop, tailor shop, folk house, restaurant, ice storehouse, farmland, and blacksmith shop”, Yunling couldn’t decide for a while.
As a hoarding madman, of course the bigger the warehouse, the better, and the longer the shelf life, of course, the better.
Only by upgrading the mission hall can more and better NPC talents emerge.
Only by upgrading wood workshops, tailor shops, restaurants, and blacksmith shops can more employees be recruited.
Only by upgrading farmland can we own more land and be self-sufficient.
It’s the residential houses and ice warehouses, and there is no rush to upgrade for a while.
Yunling repeatedly weighed it, and finally decided to upgrade the task hall.
[The mission hall is upgraded to level 3. 】
[5 NPCs come here every day, staying for 48 hours. 】
[You will have more chances to obtain higher-level and better-quality NPCs. 】
“Higher level, better quality? What kind of NPC would it be?” Yunling was full of expectation.
As a result, in the evening of the same day, the system spawned a super powerful NPC.
Level: 12
Attributes: Strength 6, Dexterity 8, Physical Strength 10, Intelligence 21, Spirit 20.
Combat skills: S-level flame storm, S-level soul burning
Life skills: advanced sewing
Craftable items: linen backpack (white), cotton backpack (blue), brown leather backpack (purple), mage robe (blue), moonlight robe (purple), satin shoes (blue).
Employment price: 30,000 copper coins.
Jinneng can be a fort mage, and retired can be a shop employee. The so-called literacy and martial arts, he is probably like this.
But… 30,000 copper coins! ! !
Yunling’s breathing was stagnant, and she felt a dull pain in her heart.
But the double S attack skill is really rare, and the moonlight robe (purple) is also quite good. Yun Ling closed his eyes, his heart was stern, he decided to hire him, and gave him the name “Mage Xin”.
“Wish to serve you, sir.” Master Xin is a gentle middle-aged man.
Just looking at his face, no one else would have guessed that he was worth 30,000 copper coins!
Settling down, Yun Ling reluctantly calmed down, “Follow me to the warehouse to get equipment, and go to the battlefield later.”
Only if the fort mage works more and kills more, he can make up for the loss as soon as possible.
“Yes.” The mage responded with a good temper.
