Chapter 46: Occupy territory

The Licker's sharp claws scurried along the edge of the wall, reaching the observation deck in an instant.

With a flip and a jump,

it landed on the observation deck.

Sun Haoran, understanding the situation, had already fled the moment the Licker appeared.

He frantically ran downwards.

But with his speed, how could he be a match for the Licker?

The Licker swiftly moved through the castle.

It easily smashed open the doors Sun Haoran had closed.

“I was wrong.”

“I was wrong.”

“Please don’t chase me anymore.”

However, Qi Maosong had already caught up to him and squeezed him in his hand with a single claw.

The sharp claws tore his skin, and the zombie virus had already entered his body.

“You’re not wrong, what were you wrong about?”

Qi Maosong didn’t give him a chance to babble, and after a few jumps, he arrived at the territory outside.

He revealed Sun Haoran, who was in his palm, to the Dragon Egg Overlord opposite him.

The Dragon Egg Overlord’s eyes immediately turned bloodshot, and he let out a long howl, “Despicable, too despicable! If you have the guts, fight me head-on!”

Qi Maosong smiled coldly, “Alright, I’ll give you this chance. If you win, I’ll return your Lord to you.”

Hearing this,

the Dragon Egg Overlord swung his long blade and charged over frantically.

Qi Maosong observed coldly for a moment, then suddenly moved, dodging the Dragon Egg Overlord’s heavy chop with a jump. Immediately, his tongue shot out, followed by several claw strikes, shattering the back of the Dragon Egg Overlord’s head.

As the Dragon Egg Overlord fell, the remaining Dragon Egg Warriors’ morale instantly collapsed.

They had no will to fight.

Under the attacks of the Licker and the other zombies, they were quickly annihilated.

After the battle ended,

Qi Maosong ordered everyone to kill all the Dragon Egg Warriors who had mutated into zombies, and only then was the battle truly over.

Because these zombies didn’t attack them, it was because they were currently in the form of Zombie Dogs.

If they had reverted to their normal Adventurers’ appearance, these zombies would definitely have attacked them.

After all the zombies in the castle were completely cleared out, the Adventurers finally reverted to their original forms.

Wu Yue stretched, “Finally back to normal. Honestly, it felt quite strange being a dog.”

“Lord Chen’s monster bestiary is quite interesting. I’ve transformed once before when I went to other Dungeon Lords, but they were all very common racial creatures, with no novelty at all.”

“I wonder if there are any other monsters in Resident Evil. I’m actually getting a bit addicted.”

Qi Maosong also smiled and said, “The Licker looks disgusting, but it feels quite cool when actually used. Its combat ability is really well-balanced. I really don’t know how to kill them without relying on the laser channel?”

“Enough talk, enough talk. Time to get to work. Let’s quickly absorb this territory, and then we’ll continue hunting.”

Li Ruopu said, taking out a dim Guardian Stone from inside the castle.

As long as this Guardian Stone was absorbed, this territory would belong to them.

【Your Adventurers have just captured a territory. Do you wish to accept the absorption?】

Upon hearing this news,

Chen Yu was a bit surprised.

“?”

“??”

“I told you to guard the home, and you went and took down the opposing territory for me?”

“Absorb!”

A free territory, why not take it?

Moreover, a territory like this could build ten Dungeons at once.

Occupying one was equivalent to occupying more than five village tribes.

However, correspondingly, to activate the protective shield, more soul crystals would be consumed, requiring 1,000 soul crystals.

This expense was a bit too large.

Chen Yu planned to wait until all the territories he currently held were upgraded and he had enough resources before proceeding.

So,

Chen Yu activated the territory’s construction system.

He built a portal on this territory, repaired the city gates and such, and tightly closed the territory’s drawbridge, then paid no further attention to it.

He also didn’t plan to station anyone there.

He currently had no combat-oriented troops; two Half-elf Swordsmen were clearly not enough. If someone actually came to attack, they would only be sending themselves to their deaths.

Therefore,

he simply created an empty city.

If some unobservant individual truly came to attack, he would emergency summon the Adventurers to come defend through the teleportation array.

Chen Yu then inventoried the gains in the new territory’s warehouse.

He found that resources were pitifully scarce, seemingly all consumed, leaving only some food and items that were temporarily useless, not worth much money.

However, among these items, Chen Yu unexpectedly discovered two blueprints.

【Blacksmith’s Shop: After use, allows the construction of a blacksmith’s shop in the territory. The blacksmith’s shop can use metal items such as iron ingots and steel ingots to forge equipment.】

【Textile Mill: After use, allows the construction of a textile mill in the territory. The textile mill can use textile items such as leather and cloth to make clothing.】

When he saw these two blueprints, Chen Yu’s eyes immediately lit up.

When he had captured the Goblin Tribe and other territories before, Chen Yu had been troubled by the lack of high-level buildings.

As a result, even now, Chen Yu still slept on a wooden plank bed made of solid wood, covered by a beast hide blanket personally woven by Lina and Effie, stitch by stitch...

Wait, it wasn’t that bad after all.

But having a textile mill was a good thing regardless. Lina and the others still didn’t have proper bedding in their rooms. Since they worked for him every day, he, as their boss, should show some care.

It was so cold sleeping at night; he needed to take care of them.

Moreover, with high-quality monster hides in the future, he could also sew magical clothing to increase combat power.

The blacksmith’s shop was the same.

It could forge equipment, and this equipment would be directly placed in the Adventurer’s panel, never disappearing.

However, if its durability ran out, it would still need to be repaired.

Chen Yu looked through the new territory’s warehouse.

There were indeed some leather and iron ingots and similar items inside.

As for secondary materials like cotton, Chen Yu ordered the Half-elves below to search for them in the wild.

With the Half-elf Swordsmen guarding them, there would be no danger.

After absorbing the territory’s Guardian Stone, the Adventurers began to explore the surroundings again, striving to farm more magic crystals before nightfall.

Time quickly reached dusk...

Chen Yu finally completed the production of the Resident Evil Normal mode and withdrew his consciousness from the Dungeon.

“I’m exhausted!”

“Designing these things is really tiring. Although it’s much simpler than making them on a computer in my previous life, only requiring a thought to design, I just can’t imagine too many things.”

Chen Yu stood on the ancient castle’s watchtower, gazing into the distance, relieving his slightly fatigued spirit.

At this moment,

he saw a tall, slender figure approaching from outside the protective shield.

She was dragging a huge white wolf corpse by hand, pulling it all the way into the territory.
