Everyone’s a Land Ruler, Rolling Demon Soldier Types at the Start - Chapter 33
The defeat of the giant worm marked the end of the Beast Tide. Joey and the rest of the members of the territory began to clean up and take stock of the gains of this battle.
The city walls were severely damaged. Fortunately, the territory could be quickly built and repaired when there were no enemies nearby. Otherwise, Lucky Town, which had suffered heavy losses, might really be destroyed if it was attacked again.
After repairing the town, Joey consumed resources to clean up the town and remove the dirty things.
In the end, he had killed more than 2,000 monsters of all levels in this battle. However, most of them were not high-leveled. They were only a threat because of the large number of monsters.
The biggest result of the battle was that he had killed a small BOSS. However, although it was only a low-level small boss, Joey felt that it was a terrible disaster.
.
“It seems that I can’t be complacent. I need to constantly remind myself that the infinite continent is full of dangers. Even if I truly become a true God, I might not be completely safe.”
After all, the trillions of Lords had been transmigrated to this world to openly challenge the gods already here. All of them want to become new gods.
Joey took a cold bath with the well water and returned to his room in the castle. He sat on the chief seat.
Although the battle had suffered heavy losses, and there were only seven or eight demon soldiers left. Little Skinny, Tall, Shorty, Fatty, and Strong had all died in battle, but they would soon be able to respawn from the demon blood pool.
“Moreover, their experience will not disappear, nor will their levels decrease.”
In other words, Joey now had two great level-9 commander-level demons, Little Smart and Liang.
Five Level 8 demons and twenty level 7 demons.
“The higher-level demons are all demons that I summoned earlier. Moreover, Little Tall had died more than once in battle and lost a lot of leveling time. His level is actually still very high though. Is it because I gave him a name?”
Joey thought of this problem, but the amount of experience was limited. He estimated that giving him a name would only increase the amount of experience allocated to the army.
Otherwise, if he gave each demon a name, would it be equivalent to each demon having an experience card? Thinking about it, he felt that it was impossible.
“The greater the crisis, the greater the harvest. The resources I have now are quite huge!”
[ Food: 37,560]
[ Energy stones: 7,530]
[ Demon Crystals: 109]
[ Unappraised Blueprints: 1]
[ Refined iron: 2,658]
[ Beast Skins: 4,053]
[ Beast Bones: 3,900]
..
Most of these resources had been replaced by Joey’s immediate combat strength before he stood up. Now that he had immediately accumulated so many of them, he was both happy and a little disappointed. He was happy that he indeed had a lot of resources, but he was disappointed that there was nothing special about them, moreover, the drop rate was about the same as when he usually hunted, and it was even slightly lower.
“Oh right! I haven’t disintegrated the big bug yet!”
Joey thought about why he felt strange. It turned out that he had forgotten about his biggest spoils of war.
He immediately got Little Liang to bring him back to the battlefield from before.
“Disintegrate!”
Joey gave the order. Because this was part of his territory, he could use the Lord’s ability here.
[ Target: Beginner Canyon Pioneer ]
[ Decomposition successful! ]
[ You have obtained: Demon Crystal 13]
[ You have obtained: Unappraised Blueprint, 2]
[ You have obtained: Energy Stone, 97]
The system’s announcement ended very quickly, which made Joey feel a little dumbfounded.
“Such a huge monster, and it didn’t even drop anything rare? Am I being too greedy?”
The huge bug’s corpse disappeared into thin air, and the ground in front of him was leveled at the same time as if it had never appeared here before.
“But compared to the 2,000 or so monsters, this boss is about the level of 1,000 low-level monsters. After all, it dropped a total of two blueprints.”
At this time, Joey could only console himself. He hoped that the items identified by the blueprints were not too bad, or else it would be a huge loss.
When he returned, Joey was still thinking about why such a big bug did not drop any food. Could it be that the bug could not be eaten?
In the city Lord’s room.
Joey began to identify the blueprints one by one.
The first one emitted a pure white light.
[ Ordinary building, wooden house ]
[ This blueprint can be used twenty times ]
[ Construction requirements: 1 space, 2,000 wood, 1,000 stone. can be used on buildings of the same type that are not higher than the level of this building ]
[ Civil buildings that can accommodate the residents living in it. They look relatively sturdy. ]
[ Effect: slightly increases the loyalty of the residents living in this building ]
“Wooden house?”
“This is completely different from the residential buildings that were given to the townships when they were upgraded. It’s equivalent to a higher-level residential building.”
The residential buildings that were given by the system could only accommodate people. They looked like a tattered refugee-level tent.
This wooden house was much better. Moreover, it could be used directly on the residential buildings that were given by the system. It seemed that it was indeed an upgraded version.
Joey thought for a while and immediately began to appraise the second blueprint.
[ Ordinary building, cemetery ]
[ This blueprint can be used once ]
[ Construction requirements, 10 to 20 spaces, 10,000 wood, 3,000 stone ]
[ Quick construction and beauty of ordinary tombs, additional resources required ]
[ People will eventually die, and sometimes they need a home after death ]
[ Effects: may increase the loyalty of the territory’s residents and trigger corresponding special events ]
“A cemetery? Although the demon soldiers won’t really die, the locals will.”
Joey thought of Nock, the slave rat who had sacrificed his life for the good of his subjects.
He still did not know the background of this rat. In fact, he had never cared about the rat people who had already surrendered to him for so long.
It was the power of faith of the rat people that had surprised him a little.
“Perhaps, this is also a kind of providence… I’ve decided to hold a ceremony tomorrow and let those rat people who died in battle be buried in the cemetery. It can be considered as an explanation.”
After all, these rat people were also the first members to defect to Joey. Although the rat people were forced in the beginning, their loyalty and power of faith would not lie to others.
“In the future, if you want to enter the cemetery that I built, you must have done a lot of meritorious deeds!”
The battle on the battlefield would definitely last for a long time. Joey felt that in the future, he might be able to see more races and subdue more races. There would also be many people who would lose their lives because of him.
“Mercy does not rule the army! My Cemetery will be the highest honor of a great empire in the future. Nock, you will be recorded in a great epic!”
Joey shifted his gaze to the last blueprint. Nock was already dead, so he did not have much of a chance to make up for it. At most, he would let the other rat people live in the wooden house.
A light green light enveloped the blueprint.
“Great, it’s not white!”
Joey perked up and widened his eyes.
