Lord Game: Awakening The Legendary Multiplier From The Start

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was already nighttime

If the scroll did not emit a faint light, the surroundings would have been completely dark!

Indeed, it was terrifying. 

‘Should I light a torch?

‘No, that’s a bad idea.’

After all, torches were extremely precious resources. 

Liao Fan could not afford to waste them like this.

On the other hand, Liao Fan had turned all five eggs that he had received from the treasure chest into egg soup!

It was very delicious.

The villagers had to eat their fill as well.

Quite a lot of food was consumed.

As for the fish, it had yet to be eaten.

Liao Fan only planned to eat the fish as a last resort.

Then, he synthesized a fishing rod and two iron axes.

The remaining materials were made into torches until there were only twenty units of coal leftover. 

All the torches were also enhanced!

In total, Liao Fan had one hundred and eighty torches!

It would be enough for him to stay outside for thirty-six hours!

That was more than a day.

Of course, Liao Fan was aware that the monsters in the fog would try to trap him again. 

The freedom provided by the torch was limited!

Naturally, he was dissatisfied with that!

Liao Fan had yet to make the wooden fences.

He wanted to further investigate the circumstances first!

The surroundings were very quiet.

There was nothing but darkness.

No one dared to go out under such circumstances, even if they had a torch!

It was the same for Liao Fan.

Therefore, he spent his time making a detailed plan instead.

He and his villagers would take turns to stand guard. 

Although the thatched cottage was supposed to be secured, Liao Fan did not believe that his safety was guaranteed.

He needed to observe the situation by himself.

Perhaps something different would happen during nighttime.

…

Time flew by.

Nothing happened that night.

Both villagers managed to get a good rest.

They were in high spirits in the morning.

Furthermore, the villagers had gained some weight.

Liao Fan was not sure if his mind was playing tricks on him, but he felt like the two of them had grown stronger.

‘Isn’t this a little too fast?’

Regardless, since Liao Fan was their Lord, he could not treat them unfairly.

The map was still incomplete.

Liao Fan held it in his hand and raised his head. He looked at the fog.

It was really strange.

His visibility was still disrupted.

There was no need to worry about the number of torches for the time being.

Liao Fan could even afford to stay at the stream to fish for an entire day.

“Let’s go!”

As Liao Fan opened the door, he was greeted by cold air!

He took a deep breath and looked at the ground.

The line that he previously drew on the ground was still there.

However, it was no longer as clear as before.

It would continue to fade and soon, completely disappear.

There was only very little black crystal block left.

Liao Fan immediately used ten units of coal and stone to make ten more black crystal blocks.

These black crystal blocks could be used as markers.

They were extremely important to counter the fog.

This time, Liao Fan ordered one of his villagers to draw the lines. 

It was because he needed to focus on the path when they were exploring.

Just drawing lines on the ground would not be enough. 

For now, this was the only plan Liao Fan could come up with.

Additionally, he could draw backup marks on the paper.

‘It doesn’t hurt to be extra careful!

‘Besides, the length of my steps would not always be the same!’

…

Five minutes passed.

Liao Fan’s steps gradually slowed down. There was a scent of blood in the air!

Furthermore, the pebbles on the ground were somewhat messed up.

Obviously, it was the traces of a person!

Liao Fan was particularly disturbed by the smell of blood. 

“Is someone there?”

He began to search his surroundings.

A very important clue was waiting to be discovered. 

So far, Liao Fan had taken a total of eight hundred and thirty-two steps.

In other words, this place was only 0.3 miles away from his thatched cottage!

Someone had actually explored so close to his territory!

If they were in the cities, the other party could even be considered as his neighbor.

Liao Fan quickly searched for some subtle clues. 

There were some dried blood drops on the ground.

Liao Fan walked a short distance.

It was then he discovered a corpse!

The corpse was female.

There was a terrifying expression on her face!

Her eyes were wide open and her body was bitten by wild beasts.

Moreover, her internal organs had been emptied.

It was a really grim scene!

Liao Fan felt very uncomfortable.

The other party probably died yesterday.

She should not have been dead for more than twelve hours because her body had yet to decay.

Liao Fan squatted down and examined the body thoroughly.

It was definitely unpleasant, but he could not give up on the possibilities of finding a vital clue.

After some time, Liao Fan concluded that the other party did not die from a beast attack.

She had a torch in one hand and her eyes were staring straight ahead.

‘I think she died from fear and excessive shock.

‘If she had died from a wild beast attack, there would definitely be signs of struggle!

‘Also, she must have brought her villagers along, but I don’t see their corpses anywhere.’

It was really strange.
