Unexpected Gains

I've finished yesterday's work, and I'm working on the rest. Typing on my phone isn't very good, so asking for a subscription isn't too much to ask, is it?

After dealing with the matters outside Aryadovi Tower, Gu Xi returned to the lawn in front of Aryadovi Tower, where the spoils of war had also been processed.

When Gu Xi returned, Luna didn't ask where Arroyo was. Instead, she directly presented Gu Xi with the several attribute-bearing items she had already selected.

Gu Xi took the items without checking their properties, and instructed Luna, "Luna, build the road and the owl communication point here. These are not buildings, but extensions of the original buildings. All we need is manpower, right?"

"Yes, sir, please rest assured. These spirits that were just summoned will come in handy. I will take care of them."

"Okay, you go ahead then, Robbie!"

Gu Xi called out again.

Upon hearing Gu Xi's order, Robbie immediately led his troops over.

Robbie had seen what happened to Arroyo earlier, and Robbie was quite envious that Arroyo was able to find a place to stay.

After all, Hero with garrisons can lead a much larger number of troops than Hero without garrisons.

Robbie, who had previously wandered around the 13 outer towers of the Aryadovi Tower, was also hoping to gain some benefits.

After running around for so long, he ended up getting nothing, so he was naturally unwilling to accept it.

"Grown ups."

"Robbie, as you can see, we haven't fully settled down between Aryadovi City and Aryadovi Tower yet. During this time, you will be responsible for patrolling and guarding this road until we finish building it and begin to occupy this area."

"We guarantee the mission will be completed."

Robbie knew this was his chance.

Gu Xi had previously promised Robbie that Robbie would provide the resources for upgrading the Skeleton Swordsman Camp. As long as Robbie found enough resources, the Skeleton Swordsman Camp could be upgraded as many levels as he wanted, and Gu Xi would not Tao Zi.

What Robbie lacks right now is the resources to upgrade.

The tasks Gu Xi assigned to Robbie were, for Robbie, a constant source of resources and an opportunity to upgrade his Skeleton Swordsman Camp.

Robbie immediately gathered his troops and the two leaders of the Bonecleaver Battalion, and they charged out.

After his subordinates had all received their missions and left, Gu Xi finally looked at the items in his hands.

These items were found by Luna among so much white and gray trash on the battlefield.

Gu Xi hadn't had time to look at it before, but now that he had the time, Gu Xi calmed down and took a look at his previous battle gains.

Upon seeing this, Gu Xi's eyes widened; he had thought he wouldn't find anything this time.

Unexpectedly, this time there was a pleasant surprise.

[Spearmen Skin - Toy Tin Soldier: Transforms all Spearmen units into Tin Soldier appearances.]

[Crow Lamp (Support): Learns how to construct the support building Crow Lamp. After mastering it, Crow Lamp can be placed in the city by consuming 100 Negative Energy.]

[Locust Seed (Green): Placed in a designated location, this can transform a wasteland covered in locust eggs into Abandoned Farmland that produces locusts.]

[Abandoned Farmland (Large): Use 500 resources, 10 units of stone, and 10 units of wood to build an Abandoned Farmland (large building) in the wild.

Once completed, it can train 60 swarms of locusts per week.

Once completed, it can produce 1,000 jin of dried locusts per week.

Once completed, it can produce 30 units of locust toxin per week.

[Locust (Level 1): Attack 1, Defense 1, Health 1, Skills: Swarm State, Devour Everything, Flying Troops.]

For Gu Xi, these three things were all freebies.

Gu Xi has seen the Spearmen skin. The front features the blue Leather Armor of Spearmen, typical of human castles, while the back shows Spearmen in Britain- style red coat, black hat, and tin body.

This Spearmen skin is not necessarily available to Spearmen in human castles.

According to the above instructions, any unit that uses Long Spear in combat can use this skin.

Arroyo's side already had its own organization, and the Black Spear Camp was full of Spearmen. Whether it was Skeleton Spearman or Arroyo's way of getting Zombie to carry Long Spear, it was all within the scope of skin transformation.

Let's take this as a reward for Black Gunners and unify the appearance of the Black Spear Camp first.

As for the Crow Lamp and the Abandoned Farmland arranged with Locust Seed, these are all architectural structures.

I've seen the Crow Lamp Gu Xi; it's a kind of crow in a half-alive, half-dead state. They fly within a certain range, carrying lanterns on their claws.

These can illuminate the road in the fog. Gu Xi plans to tell Luna later to set up these Crow Lamp between Aryadovi Tower and Aryadovi City to facilitate the movement of troops.

The Abandoned Farmland, however, surprised Gu Xi somewhat.

This is the first building that Gu Xi discovered that was not built within the city.

However, after looking through them, Gu Xi figured it out. Locusts were a rather unsolvable problem. They were numerous, but their combat power was low, and most importantly, their vitality was low, even less than that of Skeleton.

Their characteristic is that they can devour everything. Raising locusts requires too much resources. Wouldn't it be better to use that food to Gu Xi other soldiers?

Gu Xi estimated that the locusts would be truly useful when Gu Xi's Summoning reached level 8 and he could start summoning Ghost.

When all the locusts gather together, release the Wave of Death, and then unleash another wave of Summoning, a large number of Ghost will emerge.

Finally, the locust corpses can be used to fertilize the land, which is a way of making use of waste.

Right now, Gu Xi is planning to build this Abandoned Farmland far away, so as not to disrupt the layout of Aryadovi City.

After understanding the situation, Gu Xi was about to call Luna.

But they discovered that Luna seemed to have already been assigned to some tasks.

Gu Xi quickly gathered up these things, jumped onto the Evil Coffin, and headed out of the Aryadovi Tower.

As they passed the City Defense Tower, Gu Xi casually handed the Spearmen skin to Arroyo and watched as the Black Spear Camp completed their outfit change.

Just as Gu Xi had expected, after changing their skins, all the Spearmen in the Black Spear Camp, whether Skeleton Soldier or Zombie, all turned into Tin Soldier wearing red clothes, black hats, and with skin that shimmered with metallic light.

Their combat characteristics were not affected, and they were still surrounded by a layer of black ash.

When they moved, they looked like a metal army emerging from the darkness, and just looking at them was terrifying.

Arroyo was walking at the front, excitedly pulled open his clothes. In his eyes, his skin looked much better than before.

Looking into Arroyo's eyes, Gu Xi knew what he wanted to do.

However, changing the name was impossible now. Gu Xi simply said that he had something to do and quickly left Aryadovi Tower, without giving Arroyo any chance to offer any opinions.
