The recent battle inflicted wounds upon me far more grievous than I have ever endured.
Having traversed through realms, I am now subjected to the sight of these individuals flaunting their affection.
Though my heart seethes with unspoken curses, Fonho nevertheless rises to survey his surroundings.
No signs of conflict are visible, indicating a considerable distance from the enemy.
The journey has spanned several hours.
Fortunately, it is only Fong how who requires sustenance and relief, sparing precious time as the skeletal soldiers remain unaffected.
The encampment of the Fireblade has surpassed the boundaries of the village, rendering it more akin to a small fortress.
Towering stone walls rise majestically, and through the open gates, the structures within are revealed.
The orc territory is not the desolate expanse Fong how had envisioned.
As a dozen or so orcs remain stationed there, he commands an immediate assault on the stronghold, simultaneously sounding the war horn.
The clarion call reverberates, bestowing various enhancements upon the skeletal warriors, propelling them swiftly towards the territory.
The orcs on guard upon hearing the horn and witnessing the frenzied advance of the skeletons undergo a dramatic change in countenance.
The closure of the gates proves feudal against the onslaught of the skeletal horde.
Like a stack of dominoes, they surge upon the walls.
Seizing control of the city.
As Fongo approaches from the rear, the gates are gradually pushed open by the skeletal soldiers, heralding his arrival.
He issues a directive to gather all that can be salvaged.
Chapter 48.
The raid on the territory Fongo issued a plundering order, prompting all the skeletal soldiers to disperse immediately and commence the scavenging of all transportable resources.
As he surveyed the territory, his gaze brightened upon spotting the chief's hall at its center.
Generally speaking, the chieftain possesses the greatest wealth of the tribe, and it is certain that some valuable items could be discovered.
Moreover, in a territory inhabited by tens of thousands, one would expect the existence of quality treasure chests.
If you need not search, stay close to me, Fonggha instructed a group of skeletons.
Who knows what peculiar dangers lie within? It is prudent to exercise caution.
The six skeletal soldiers halted their tasks and silently trailed behind him.
The chief's hall, constructed of ordinary stone and wood, lacked the grandeur of a fortress built from stone bricks, which disappointed Fongo somewhat.
Had the hall been a stone brick structure, he would have arranged for his men to dismantle it for bricks.
Upon entering the hall, he found it spacious and well-lit.
Take down those drapes and remove that chandelier.
Be careful not to damage it.
He gestured as he stepped inside.
The skeletons sprang into action.
The orc camp clearly lacked the wealth of the vampire fortress.
The antler chandelier was adorned with half burned candles, not the luminous stones typical of the vampire stronghold.
However, Fonga did not mind, intending to take everything.
The skeletons began hauling the furniture outside while Fongo settled into the central chair, comparing the surroundings.
This chair was undoubtedly the seat of Chief Kent.
Though the orc's physique was robust, it felt oversized for Fong Ha.
All right, lift it out, he commanded, prompting the skeletons to carry the chair away.
Regardless of its future utility, it will be transported back nonetheless.
Soon, the hall was stripped bare.
Fong Hao proceeded to scour several bedrooms where various pieces of furniture, decorations, curtains, and bedding were all moved out, awaiting collective transport in the master bedroom.
As the skeletons busied themselves with the items, Fongghow's attention was drawn to a golden chest positioned against the wall.
This marked the second golden chest he had encountered, and an inexplicable excitement welled within him.
Heavenly spirits and earthly spirits, the Supreme Lord commands with haste.
May misfortune depart and fortune arrive.
May the whole family prosper.
After muttering incantations for a while, he finally opened a chest.
Acquired blueprints for cavalry training camp, blueprints for fine single-edge blade, green blueprints for quarry construction, blueprints for leather saddle, white 320 battle coins, 35 beast two stones.
The hall was fairly commendable, although no particularly astonishing items emerged.
The inclusion of the cavalry training camp and green equipment blueprints was noteworthy.
Once cavalry were recruited and green single-edge blades were crafted, the overall strength of the territory would significantly improve.
Beast tooth stone category or description, a rare or required for constructing orc buildings.
It resembles a crescent-shaped beast tooth.
Fong how it collected quite a number of these ores from various tribes.
The shadow stones of the undead, the blood stones of the vampires, and now the beast teeth stones of the orcs have all been acquired.
All blueprints have been recorded in the lord's book and the warfire coins and beast he stones have been stored in the backpack.
Rising from the chief's hall, one observes that aside from the house itself, all furniture and items have been moved outside.
The skeletons continue to scour the territory.
Meanwhile, Fongo's gaze falls upon a nearby pasture.
The property of the battle axe tribe where hundreds of tamed unicorn sheep graze peacefully within their enclosure.
These creatures seem utterly unfazed by the invasion, calmly munching on grass and resting.
Even when a skeleton passes by, the unicorn sheep merely glance lazily before returning to their leisurely activities.
The sight of these unicorn sheep brings a renewed joy to Fongo's heart.
He recalls the last time he attempted to capture a wild unicorn sheep when he and the skeletons spent over an hour cornering one only for it to escape.
Now the orcs have successfully tamed them and both males and females are present.
Let's take the sheep, he instructs the skeletons, adding with a hint of concern, ensure they are all tied up and brought back alive.
The skeletons then enter the pen, diligently securing each unicorn sheep.
Once all resources have been gathered, Fongo begins to tally them up.
resources.
Three writhing vertebrae 51 28 wood 28 53 stone 8 575 Thatch 111 850 leather 842 iron 520 copper 524 warfire coins.
Miscellaneous 442 baskets of fruit 95 520 units of meat 1 120 units of salt 324 unicorn sheep furniture 20 0000 simple wooden beds 8 0000 various cabinets for 000 sets of tables and chairs for beast horn chandeliers pots bowls and curtains the quantity amassed is indeed substantial were it not for the limited number of troops he brought Funha would have considered dismantling the doors and windows of the orc dwellings to transport them as well.
He retrieves the lord's book and employs a 100-fold amplification to create 30 000 carts, securing all the gathered supplies within.
However, he soon realizes that even this formidable batch cannot transport all the resources in one go.
It appears a second trip will be necessary, but fortunately the day is still young, allowing ample time.
For the first journey, he selects several carts filled with the most critical supplies and decides to return to his territory.
Let us depart, he commands as they leave the gates of the battle axe territory a jar.
The convoy marching back with great momentum from a distance.
Upon seeing Fongghao and his team return, Eur commands the skeleton soldiers to open the gates and welcome.
Master, she exclaims with delight.
Being in Fong Ha's company is far preferable to being among the skeletons.
Thankfully, having realized that the skeleton soldiers pose no threat to her.
Her initial fears have subsided.
Yes, these are spoils from the orc territory.
You may replace your bedroom's bed and see what else you might need to arrange.
Fongghao commanded the skeletal crew to unload the cargo at the designated location.
widened as she gazed at the heaps of goods piled upon the skeletal carts along with the hundreds of wandering unicorn sheep.
It seemed they had plundered an entire household.
How could they return with such an abundance after just one outing? Oh, very well.
The air continued to respond.
Fong Ho nodded, instructing the skeletons to escort the unicorn sheep into the pasture.
The territory's pasture was still at the first level, and with over 300 unicorn sheep, it quickly appeared overcrowded.
With ample resources, an immediate upgrade to the pasture commenced.
Level two pasture would 1500, stone 1,200, thatch 800, hemp rope 400.
Level three pasture wood 2200, stone 1,800, thatch 1600, hemp rope 800, leather 200.
The pasture was elevated three levels in succession, instantly doubling its area, rivaling that of the orc pastures.
Once all tasks were completed, Fong Hao instructed a year, "We need to make another trip.
You continue to guard the territory.
" With that, he set off with the unloaded skeletons to return to the orc territory and transport the remaining goods.
As dusk approached, they began their return with the second batch of goods.
