Base Construction

Huang Long looked over his attributes without much reaction. They were just numbers. To him, even low-stat units could still crush powerful troops with high stats, so he did not care much about them.

He had not expected that most things had changed. The original Summon Gray Bear, Misha, now truly summoned a gray bear that would remain permanently. He just did not know what it looked like.

"Skill activated—Summon Gray Bear!" Huang Long shouted softly. A strange magic circle appeared before him, and a huge figure slowly stepped out. It had brownish-gray fur, a sturdy body, and an enormous head that looked around at the surrounding scenery in confusion.

"Roar!" The gray bear let out a soft roar. Upon seeing Huang Long, it rushed over to him, stuck out its huge tongue, and continuously licked Huang Long's cheeks.

Huang Long immediately took a liking to the silly-looking gray bear. Combined with the inexplicable connection between them, it made him feel even more affectionate toward it.

"I'll call you Misha from now on! The same name! Go play over there!" Huang Long rubbed Misha's head and said with a smile.

Huang Long looked at the virtual screen before him and raised his head. "What can I build now?"

"Host, please look at the screen!"

"So expensive." A trace of surprise flashed through Huang Long's eyes, and he began to ponder.

"If I break it down like this, the first thing to discard is definitely the Tree of Life. Obviously, this isn't the time to establish a secondary base, and it costs far too much gold. There's no great need for it. Then there's Hunter's Hall. There's no need for that either. It can upgrade all kinds of skills, such as Moon Power and Beast Power, but there's no demand for that at the moment. The Tree of Wonders is the same. The only items it sells in the early stages are Moonstones and Purification Potions, which are not very useful. So there are only three choices left: Moon Well, Ancient of War, and Altar of Elders—"

"The Moon Well must be built. According to Warcraft, Moon Wells provide food and housing for Elves and the Night Elf faction. That means the usable resources will only be 9000 gold and 9000 resources, perhaps even less."

"At base level one, the Ancient of War can only train the weakest form of Archer. According to the prompt given by the Warcraft Elf System, their initial level is only level one. They may not be strong, but they can still level up. Still, they're rather expensive. Put the 6000 gold option on the list for now."

"Finally, the Altar of Elders is simply too expensive. Once it is built, the base will probably have trouble recovering. Until I find a stable source of gold and resources, I'll set it aside for now."

"So, the decision is to build one Ancient of War and two Moon Wells, consuming a total of 8000 gold and 5000 resources."

"Does the host confirm construction?"

"Confirmed!" Huang Long decisively chose to build them. He had completely immersed himself in the role of a Warcraft Night Elf lord and intended to make something of himself.

"Elves, search everywhere for gold mines and resources!" Huang Long immediately gave the order. The system's protective barrier still had three days of effect remaining, so before then, there was absolutely no harm in expanding his forces as much as possible.

Three Elves were constructing buildings, while two were searching for gold mines. That was clearly not enough. "System, train four more Elves."

As Huang Long looked at the streams of data, a glint of wisdom flashed through his eyes.

"Now it should be time to grind monsters, right? I can level up while I'm at it. I've gained all these powerful skills, but I wonder if this planet has humans!"

"Congratulations, Host. A gold mine has been discovered at your current location. Reserves: 1000000. Begin mining? Each Elf can mine 100 per hour. Maximum limit: ten Elves."

"Yes! Keep mining continuously. Have the other one continue searching!" A sharp gleam flashed in Huang Long's eyes. One million was not that much. It might have seemed like a lot in the old game, but in this world, it was probably only average.

"Misha! It's time for us to kill monsters!" Thinking of this, Huang Long hurriedly woke Misha, who was lying nearby and sleeping soundly.

"Snort, snort!" Misha shakily got to her feet, as though she understood Huang Long's meaning. She immediately snapped awake and scampered over to him, enthusiastically licking Huang Long without any regard for the black lines on his forehead.

"Let's go. You're a level BOSS, much higher level than me!" Huang Long teased as he looked at Misha.

Huang Long's equipment was already incredibly powerful. Titan's Blessing greatly increased both his vitality and mana, while the Ancestor Staff could summon two upgradable Troll Berserkers and increase both attack speed and movement speed. Together with the level gray bear he had summoned and the shameless skill Frozen Frost Star, he could easily kill even ordinary level-four monsters.

"Let's go! A monster with level energy has been found 1000 meters ahead!" Huang Long called out and hurried over with the Ancestor Staff in hand.

Beneath a giant tree, a wild boar twitched its snout as it continuously rooted at the tree's roots.

"Summon Troll Berserker!" Huang Long shouted softly, and two tall figures appeared before him.

"Kill!" Huang Long commanded the two Troll Berserkers and Misha to charge at the wild boar. Under the boar's terrified gaze, it was beaten until it was barely alive.

"Rather than being killed without any value, you might as well become my gold!" Huang Long sneered and lightly tapped with his finger. "Alchemy!"

The terrifying Alchemy skill activated instantly. As the Alchemist's strongest ultimate skill, Alchemy was incredibly powerful. Any creature two levels below Huang Long would turn into gold without resistance as soon as it was activated. If not for its three-hour cooldown, Huang Long would have been even happier.
