Everyone Became Lords: I Became A Base-Building Fanatic

Chapter 12: One Dog, Two Uses

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Fang Ping read the comments on the Skeleton Dog from the Myriad Tribe Battlefield. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and countless alpacas galloped through his heart.

Then, he looked at the Skeleton Dog wagging its tail at his feet and comforted himself.

“It’s fine, it’s fine. It’s just a freebie anyway. It’s only right that it’s not very strong.”

“Moreover, it has a keen sense of smell and can run quickly. It’s not too trashy. Anyway, I’m a little bored being alone. It’s not bad to take this Skeleton Dog with me as a pet. In either case, it doesn’t have to eat or sleep. I’ll play with it during the day and ask it to hunt wild beasts at night. It’s good to have one dog with two uses.”

After consoling himself, he immediately felt much better when he saw the Skeleton Dog acting cute.

He touched the Skeleton Dog’s smooth skull and told it to sit down obediently and not move around. Then, he clicked on the conditions to upgrade the Undead Summoning Spell to see how many resources were needed to upgrade it again.

[Undead Summoning Spell]

[Strength: Level-1]

[Materials needed for upgrade: Spirit Stone (0/20)]

[Post-Upgrade: Twenty additional Skeleton Soldiers, 50% chance of summoning a Skeleton Dog, and a small chance of summoning other races.]

Looking at the conditions for upgrading the Undead Summoning Spell, as well as the number of additional skeletons that could be summoned after the upgrade, Fang Ping nodded in satisfaction.

Furthermore, when he saw the information that there was a chance of summoning other races, he became extremely excited.

“There’s finally hope of summoning other Undead races. If I’m lucky, I might even be able to summon an Undead race with a commander. At that time, I’ll be able to break free from the abyss of misery from teaching these Skeleton Soldiers. Ahhh!”

After Fang Ping shouted happily, his heart was filled with motivation. Then, he brought the Skeleton Dog, who was sitting quietly by his feet, and the nine ordinary Skeleton Soldiers, who stood rooted to the ground in a daze. He quickly returned to the place where the construction materials were placed, preparing to build his absolute fortress.

Fang Ping stood at the place where the building materials were placed. Seeing the 14 Skeleton Soldiers and the skeleton dog at his feet, he immediately distributed the missions happily.

“Two Purgatory Skeleton Soldiers will take the lead. Take the traps. Then, each of you will lead two ordinary Skeleton Soldiers to set up traps outside the territory and hunt wild beasts.”

“The remaining three Purgatory Skeleton Soldiers and five Skeleton Soldiers will stay behind and assist me in building the buildings.”

As Fang Ping issued the missions, two Purgatory Skeleton Soldiers and four ordinary Skeleton Soldiers separated from the team. They walked to the traps that were piled up into a small mountain at the side. They each picked up several traps and quickly walked out of the territory.

Looking at the Skeleton Soldiers that had already gone out to hunt, Fang Ping did not delay any further. He immediately opened the System Mall and began choosing various offensive and defensive buildings.

Looking at the attack buildings that shone with cold light, Fang Ping wished he could build them all. However, due to the limited resources and manpower, he could only choose some buildings that were suitable for his current situation.

After thinking about the various buildings in the System Mall, Fang Ping quickly selected the buildings he needed.

[Fence (One meter)]

[Materials required for construction: 4 units of stone, 10 units of wood]

[Manpower required for construction: 5 people]

[Note: After the fence is built, you can move it freely through the system interface.]

[Intermediate-Leveled Arrow Tower]

[Materials required for construction: 200 units of stone, 300 units of wood, 100 units of refined iron, 1 unit of manpower]

[Manpower required for construction: 5 people]

[Note: After the arrow towers are built, arrows are needed. A small number of arrows (1,000 arrows) can be produced by placing refined iron and wood in the arrow towers.]

Looking at these two buildings, Fang Ping smiled and nodded. These two types were very suitable for his current situation.

After the fences were built, he was not afraid that when the territory expanded in the future, he would not be able to move them around. Meanwhile, when he could not build arrows in the early stages, the arrow tower could use its own resources to build a small number of arrows to fight the enemy.

Since he had already chosen the construction items, Fang Ping immediately began instructing the Skeleton Soldiers to start frantically building the arrow towers and fences.

The shape of the territory could be changed by the Overlord. As long as it was 100 meters in radius, be it circular, square, or triangular, any shape was acceptable.

Therefore, Fang Ping changed the territory area to a polygonal shape. This way, he could effectively defend against enemy climbing.

He divided the remaining Skeleton Soldiers into two groups. One group of five soldiers built the fence according to his instructions, while the other one pair of three soldiers installed an arrow tower at each end of the fence.

Following Fang Ping’s orders, the eight Skeleton Soldiers were arranged clearly. Under the acceleration of the system, they picked up the materials needed for the construction and began to build fences and arrow towers at lightning speed.

Under the acceleration of the system, fences were quickly built one after another. On average, one fence could be built in ten minutes.

Half an hour later, looking at the three Skeleton Soldiers who had finished building the two arrow towers, Fang Ping smirked. He immediately ordered the three Skeleton Soldiers to join the construction of the fences, not leaving a moment for the three Skeleton Soldiers to rest.

In the hands of the eight Skeleton Soldiers, it only took five hours to complete the fences that surrounded the entire territory.

Just as the two-layered fences connected with the arrow towers, a system notification sounded.

“Fences and arrow towers completed. Assigning attributes…”

“Assigned Sturdiness +5 to the two-layered fence.”

“Assigned Speed +3 to the arrow tower.”

[Fence (Can be upgraded and expanded)]

[Level: Level-0 (All Attributes +1)]

[Attributes: Sturdiness +1, can withstand all Level-1 attacks]

[Intermediate-Leveled Arrow Tower (Can be upgraded)]

[Level: Level-0 (All Attributes +1)]

[Materials for Arrow (One unit): 0.2 units of refined iron and 1 unit of wood]

[Attributes: Speed +3, tripled arrow crafting speed ]

Looking at the attributes given by the system to the double-layered fence and arrow tower, Fang Ping was overjoyed. With such powerful attributes, as long as the first territory test was not too heaven-defying, he would definitely pass.

However, looking at the shabby Skeleton Soldiers who were constantly moving through the built fences and collecting resources, Fang Ping’s heart immediately ignited with the idea of giving them powerful equipment. After all, these Skeleton Soldiers who only relied on their own broken equipment were just human-shaped teething sticks in the eyes of large wild beasts.

However, after taking a look at the materials needed for the arrows in the arrow tower, he immediately sighed that the quantity of refined iron was insufficient. Furthermore, he instinctively craved for more firepower. Thus, he decided to use the existing refined iron to build arrows first.

Someone in the Trading Area had been trading refined iron yesterday.

Furthermore, at this stage, those who could trade with large amounts of refined iron definitely had refined iron mines or soldiers that were good at forging iron. As long as he found these people, he would definitely be able to exchange for enough refined iron.

Thinking up to this point, Fang Ping immediately gave the order for the Skeleton Soldiers who had just completed the construction mission to pick up the traps and set off outside the territory. They would strive to hunt more wild beasts and allow their equipment to be updated.
