Everyone Has a Castle: I Choose Elves to be in My Army - Chapter 18

[D*mn, I took a good look. Big boss Gale lowered the price by half!]

[Although it’s still a little expensive, we can afford it!]

[I’m done. Gale finally decided not to be a ‘profiteer’!]

[This is the happiest thing that happened to me today!]

[Above, I feel the same!]

[I’m going out to look for something to eat. Is there a team that can support me?]

Gale looked at the information flowing on the virtual interface and smiled bitterly.

He also wanted to keep up with his image as a ‘profiteer’.

However, the current market did not allow him to do such a thing.

If the price of food was too high, he would definitely face a problem of stagnant goods.

Gale didn’t want to see his food not be able to sell out.

No matter how low the price was, it was still a considerable amount of resources for him!

Of course, if Gale had any rare or special food to sell, his price would be as expensive as his previous sales.

After all, what is rare is precious.

He had to earn what he could earn.

Ordinary food would earn him some small resources, and Gale did not expect to earn as fast as those oil owners in his previous world.

At the same time.

On a vast grassland.

Several lions covered in golden fur continuously hunted the nearby wild cows.

Rowling looked at the virtual panel that appeared in front of her, but she could not feel happy.

[Advanced Castle (Golden Nation)]

[Normal Structures: Warehouse]

[Military Building: Golden Lion Homeland]

[Castle Upgrade Conditions:100,000 units of wood, 50,000 units of stone, 10,000 units of pure iron]

[Next Level: Elementary Town]

[Current Faction: None]

However, she could not bring herself to be happy.

Rowling already knew that Gale was willing to exchange for pure iron, so it was natural because he needed the items needed to upgrade the castle to the next stage.

She had originally thought that the speed at which she leveled up the castle would be the fastest.

Although the food she sold was very cheap, there were a lot of them and she had accumulated a considerable amount of resources.

This also allowed her to successfully upgrade the castle to the Advanced so quickly.

“Indeed, Gale is still a little faster than me.”

Rowling estimated that Gale had managed to upgrade his castle yesterday.

This also meant that Gale’s development was faster than her by a day.

This difference was not too great.

So long as she worked harder, she could surpass him anytime.

However, what made her feel helpless was not the speed of the castle’s upgrade.

It was the amount of food Gale put on sale.

2,500 units of food!

She saw it the moment the merchandise was put on display.

Because of this, Rowling specially looked at it several times.

In the end, she had no choice but to accept this fact.

Rowling was extremely unwilling. Her overall strength could be said to be extremely powerful.

She had a total of nine battle units.

Due to the different characteristics of each Castle Lord’s military buildings, the ones she summoned were all Golden Lions, just different tiers.

She possessed three Tier 3 and six Tier 2 lions at the moment.

Such strength could be said to be an existence that stood out amongst the many castle lords.

However, even with such powerful strength.

There were only close to a hundred monsters she managed to hunt today!

This was a little less than half of what Gale could hunt. (Author did not mention but I would think that 1 monster carcass = 10 food units)

This made Rowling realize a very cruel reality.

Gale’s castle was far more powerful than her Golden Nation.

The sad thing was, she’d always thought Gale was as strong as she was.

“What kind of battle units do you have?”

Rowling was becoming more and more curious about Gale.

There was no way about it, this was the mentality of women.

They always had a desire to win over the strong.

The stronger you were, the more she would be interested in you.

Shortly after, Rowling opened up her [Friend] list.

Unfortunately, there was no response from her friend request to Gale.

There were quite a number of Castle Lords who had applied to add her as a friend, and there were also a few castles that had developed quite well.

However, she did not care about these Castle Lords at all. She only cared about Gale.

“No matter how strong you are, I will surpass you and rule over the Endless Land!

Rowling solemnly swore.

…

“Achoo!”

Gale rubbed his itching nose.

“I sold it for such a cheap price, yet there are still people scolding me?”

Gale immediately blamed his sneeze on the Castle Lords who had called him a ‘profiteer’ and immediately blacklisted them!

This could not be blamed on him, as the current price could indeed be considered ‘cheap’.

A pity that Gale’s image of being a profiteer was already imprinted in the hearts of some people.

This was human nature. As long as the price was still higher than the market price, it would continue to coerce you to lower the price.

It was a typical behavior.

For these people, Gale directly blacklisted them.

He then opened the [Trading Channel].

The food on sale was still being bought, although the price was still higher than the market price.

There were still castle lords purchasing them one after another.

Gale was certain that if he continued to sell it at the same high price, the results would definitely be different. He would not be able to sell anything.

Right now, he was the one leading the entire world in sales volume for food!

The second place was naturally the Goddess Rowling.

Gale had a bad reputation, but many people knew him as a result.

Especially since he always put in a huge volume of food stocks in one go, it attracted the attention of a large group of Castle Lords.

Therefore, he already had many die-hard fans.

It was also because of this that the speed of food sales became much faster.

“It seems that in less than an hour, all the food will be gone.”

Gale mused as he listened to the prompt in his head.

In exchange for food, they used wood and stones.

He did not even see the shadow of pure iron, much less regarding Origin Edges.

Even after hunting more than two hundred monsters.

Gale had only obtained sixty Origin Edges.

In addition to the Origin Edges he had obtained previously, he now had 125.

However, the requirement to upgrade his military building was only 100 Origin Edges and two Origin Crystals!

These two requirements had been completed by his battle units today!

Gale quickly came to the soldier building.

The moment he got close to the building, a notification sounded.

[The upgrade conditions have been met. Do you want to upgrade immediately?]

“Upgrade!”

Gale instructed without hesitation.

He had been waiting for this moment for three days!

He could finally upgrade his military building!

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light enveloped the entire military building.

The moment the golden light shone, Gale shielded his eyes with a practiced move.

The golden light was too dazzling and he could not look straight at it!

After about a minute.

Gale lowered his hands and stared at the military building in front of him.

In an instant, the virtual interface appeared in front of him.

[‘Special’ Military Barracks: Random Battle Unit Pool (Unique)]

[Junior Grade: Level 2]

[Effect: Able to recruit any type of battle unit at will. Limited to one recruitment per day. Quantity: Random. Tier: Random.]

[Upgrade Requirement: 500 Origin Edges, 5 Origin Crystals]

[Note: Level 2 unit building has the ability to increase the number of units summoned!]

There were almost no functional changes in the upgraded building.

However, the original pool had expanded by several meters.

The features of a level two building also increased the chance of triggering the random number of summoned units.

Gale was extremely appreciative of this point.
