Everyone Became Lords: I Became A Base-Building Fanatic

Chapter 25 Maxed Out Loyalty

Since they did not have the technology to forge firearms, it would be a waste of resources to let the Skeleton Soldiers make firearms according to the firearm blueprints.

Moreover, not only did Fang Ping not have the technology to forge firearms, but he also did not have the technology to make gunpowder.

In particular, the only materials he had that could be used to make gunpowder were the ones he had snatched from the Goblin mine. Thus, he should not waste them.

After obtaining the firearm forging technology and gunpowder manufacturing technology, he would equip his skeleton army.

At the thought of this, Fang Ping immediately put the matter of making firearms to the back of his mind and let the Skeleton Soldiers place the minerals needed to make firearms and gunpowder in a warehouse.

After he obtained these two technologies in the future, he would extract the stored minerals he had been storing. Then, he would directly mass-produce firearms and ammunition to arm his skeleton army.

Fang Ping saw that after taking away a lot of materials for forging firearms and piling them up in the forging construction area, there were still hundreds of units of iron ore left.

After pondering for a moment, he felt that he could not do anything with these ores anyway. Instead of letting these ores collect dust in the warehouse, it was better to use them to forge weapons and arm his own skeleton army.

He immediately ordered the Skeleton Soldiers to smith various equipment and weapons from the hundreds of units of iron ore.

Upon receiving Fang Ping’s order, the Skeleton Soldiers quickly began to smelt hundreds of units of iron ore, forging them into various excellent weapons and armor.

Looking at the Skeleton Soldiers who were in full swing and working extremely hard, a gratified smile appeared on Fang Ping’s face. At the same time, he felt fortunate that the troop type he had drawn was the Undead summoned creature. If other troop types were ordered around like this by him, they would probably have rebelled long ago from the oppression and stabbed Fang Ping in the back.

After giving such an order that made even unscrupulous merchants feel inferior to, the exhausted Fang Ping looked at his watch and saw that it was already past 11pm. He then returned to the Shadow Dragon Villa. After washing up, he returned to his warm bed and fell asleep.

Time flew, and soon, a night had passed.

Due to his biological clock, Fang Ping woke up early. He was currently standing in the forging construction area, inspecting the results of the Skeleton Soldiers’ overnight work.

However, when Fang Ping saw that the number of fully equipped Skeleton Soldiers was only two-thirds of the total number of Skeleton Soldiers, he immediately felt extremely puzzled.

According to the smithing speed of the Skeleton Soldiers, one night should be enough to smith weapons and armors that were sufficient to equip all the Skeleton Soldiers.

However, why was it that only a majority of the Skeleton Soldiers were fully equipped, while the others were still using their extremely broken bone weapons?

With this doubt in mind, Fang Ping began to enter the forging construction area to search for the reason.

After Fang Ping searched the forging building area, he immediately discovered the problem.

The ores used for forging were all used up. Without ores, no matter how fast the Skeleton Soldiers were forging, it was useless. After all, it was like cooking a meal without rice.

The depletion of his ores could still happen before. However, now that he had just snatched a mine, how could such a situation happen?

At this thought, Fang Ping had a vague sense of foreboding. He immediately asked the Skeleton Soldiers to inform the Elite Skeleton, who was guarding the gate of the territory, that he had something important to discuss with it.

Upon hearing the Skeleton Soldiers say that Fang Ping had something important to discuss with him, the Elite Skeleton, who was guarding the territory gate, immediately arranged for someone to take over its defensive position. Then, it hurriedly rushed towards Fang Ping’s location.

After a short while, the Elite Skeleton arrived in front of Fang Ping and spoke respectfully

“Honorable Undead Lord, may I know what instructions you have for me?”

Looking at the respectful Elite Skeleton in front of him, Fang Ping asked directly.

“Do you know when the last mining convoy went out?”

Upon hearing Fang Ping’s question, the Elite Skeleton was stunned for a moment before speaking hesitantly. “If I remember correctly, the last time the mining convoy left was about two hours ago.”

The Elite Skeleton’s reply simply gave Fang Ping a bad feeling.

It had to be known that with the distance between the territory and the mine, a trip would take at most ten minutes. With the Skeleton Soldiers traveling tirelessly, a round trip would take at most half an hour.

Now that two hours had passed and the mining convoy had not returned, something must have happened.

It would be fine if an accident happened and delayed their return, but if the Goblin tribe found out that he had snatched the mineral vein last night and came to snatch it back, it would be troublesome.

With this thought in mind, Fang Ping did not dare to waste any more time. He immediately asked the Elite Skeleton to gather all the idle Skeleton Soldiers other than those necessary to guard the territory and follow him to the mine to check on the situation.

Fang Ping led all the idle Skeleton Soldiers in the territory and ran at top speed. In just a few minutes, they arrived at the small hill where he had observed the Goblin tribe yesterday.

Along the way, Fang Ping did not see any traces of the Skeleton Soldiers. The premonition in his heart grew stronger.

When he saw the situation in the Goblin tribe, Fang Ping did not have any other expectations.

In the Goblin tribe, the Skeleton Soldiers who had been guarding the mine and the ten Skeleton Soldiers of the mining team had been captured and imprisoned in cages.

They were guarded by dozens of fully-equipped Goblins. Among them, more than ten Goblins were equipped with muskets.

Moreover, a Goblin kept pulling out the Skeleton Soldiers from the cage. Judging from the behavior of the Skeleton Soldiers in the cage, it should be the captain of the Goblin firearms team in the mine. It wanted to interrogate the mastermind who had instructed the Skeleton Soldiers to snatch the mine.

Currently, the situation in the Goblin tribe was just as Fang Ping had guessed. A well-built Goblin who looked like the captain of the Goblins was commanding his subordinates to interrogate the Skeleton Soldiers.

“There are only two paths in front of you now.”

“For the first path, tell me who is the mastermind who instructed you to seize the mine. In that case, I will let you go and let you join our tribe. You will become part of the Bone Strength Goblin Tribe and not continue to suffer here.”

“For the second path, you can continue to resist until the end. After angering me, I’ll get my subordinates to extinguish your Soul Fire and throw your body into the wilderness to feed the wild beasts.”

“You can choose which path you want to take. However, you have to think carefully. Even if you die, there are still more than ten Skeleton Soldiers in the cage behind you.”

“Someone among them will definitely be unable to withstand my methods and reveal the mastermind.”

“At that time, you will be fed to the beasts.”

However, what surprised the Goblin captain was that these ordinary Skeleton Soldiers did not have any consciousness at all. Moreover, their loyalty toward Fang Ping had been maxed out.

Putting aside the fact that they couldn’t speak, even if they could, they would not betray Fang Ping.
