Chapter 83.

The heroic flame blade Nelson stooped and leaning upon his staff appeared as a weathered elder despite being an immortal golden hero.

His gate was unsteady, contrasting sharply with the imposing figure of a skeletal warrior beside him who stood tall and straight, resembling a sharp blade at attention.

My lord, Nelson offered a subtle bow.

Scholar Nelson, Fonhow replied with a smile.

As Fongha engaged more with the undead, he grew increasingly perplexed.

Why did the living forces harbor such aversion towards the undead in comparison to the savage orc tribes? Both the skeletal merchants and Nelson exhibited a remarkably gentlemanly demeanor.

My lord, allow me to introduce this individual, Flameblade.

The towering skeleton stepped forward, kneeling on one knee and declaring loudly.

Flame Blade pledges loyalty to you, my lord.

Fonggho furrowed his brow, glancing at Nelson, who nodded an affirmation of Fong Ho's unspoken thoughts.

Flame Blade can't, he realized, recognizing the orc hero who had perished at his hands.

After undergoing transformation under Nelson's guidance, he had now taken on the mantle of a hero under Fonghouse command.

Description: A product of the immortal necromancer.

Unrecognized by the god of the undead.

This hero cannot be enhanced or promoted.

Flame blades attributes were quite commendable.

During the battle with the orcs, Fongghao had relied on the sheer numbers of the undead army to overwhelm him, creating a mound of skeletal remains centered around Flameblade.

Now transformed by Nelson, he had become an undead hero under Fong's command.

However, despite being a hero, Flamelade could not be further enhanced or promoted, remaining in a perpetual state of stagnation.

In essence, Flame Blade's potential was limited, unable to ascend further.

Yet, it was perhaps premature to contemplate the matter of hero promotion at this juncture.

The addition of a hero greatly enhances the territory.

Continue to monitor the loyalty of the others.

The loyalty of the undead fireblade towards you has reached 100.

The loyalty of your subordinate fireblade has also attained a perfect score of 100, ensuring the absence of any negative sentiments such as betrayal or treachery.

The soul of Fireblade K has been imprisoned and modified by Nelson.

Although he possesses intelligence, he lacks independent emotions and has no recollection of his past.

Solely pledging allegiance to the territory and to Fong Hao.

This realization brought a sense of relief to Fong Ho as it meant that the Fireblade would not seek vengeance against him.

"Welcome aboard, Fireblade," Fonhao declared loudly.

Fireblade rose and expressed his gratitude.

"Thank you, my lord.

" After a moment of contemplation, Fonghao instructed the two skeletal soldiers guarding nearby, "Fetch the bloodthirsty set.

The two skeletal soldiers entered the room and retrieved the four pieces of the bloodthirsty set along with the bloodthirsty blade.

This equipment had been acquired from the Fireblade tribe.

Due to its excessive weight, Fong, how cannot dawn it, nor could any other units, it had remained in the Lord's hall.

Fireblade, I entrust this equipment to you, hoping that you will contribute to the territory in the future.

Ultimately, it returned to the hands of the Fireb Blade.

Thank you, my lord.

As Fireblade dawned the bloodthirsty set and grasped the bloodthirsty blade, his aura became instantly formidable.

Now, please wait outside the territory.

We shall explore the surrounding area together shortly.

Yes, my lord, Fireblade replied, departing to wait outside.

Fungho exchanged a few brief words with Nelson before returning directly to the Lord's wooden cabin.

Entering a state of divine presence, he prepared to explore the unknown regions alongside Fireblade and the Centaurs.

As dusk approached, the large party returned laden with spoils.

Although they had not encountered any notable outposts or factions, they had hunted numerous beasts and collected several wooden chests.

The beasts were slaughtered, yielding food and leather, thus augmenting the supplies in the warehouse.

The chests also revealed a variety of items.

Iron Hole blueprint, stone bowl blueprint, 12 nature gems, 10 mithril, three spring water traces, two magical traces.

It was indeed a bountiful harvest.

The wooden chest yielded limited items, primarily consisting of basic materials and blueprints.

As Fonggha cataloged all the blueprints, the skeletal troops returning from the Shadowin Fortress were unloading their cargo.

He had arranged for a substantial number of skeletal workers to undertake demolition at the Shadowin Fortress.

During his exploration of the map, he had also checked on the progress at the fortress.

Once a towering stronghold, it now lay in ruins, reduced to mere rubble under the relentless labor of thousands of skeletal workers.

The supply of stone bricks in the territory was sufficient for the current upgrades and the stone processing facility produced bricks at a faster rate than normal mining.

Consequently, he issued an order for a complete withdrawal of the workforce, summoning all the working skeletons back to the territory.

1,200 skeletal laborers stood before the gates of their territory as Fongo commenced the allocation of tasks.

Initially he established three quaries and three lumberyards outside the territory.

Subsequently he upgraded all the quaries and lumberyards to level four.

Level four quarry category building description quy area stone collection efficiency 15.

Level four lumberyard category building description lumberyard area wood collection efficiency 15.

With the completion of these establishments, the extraction speed of fundamental resources was significantly enhanced.

The skeletal laborers commenced their respective tasks while Fongo returned to the territory to upgrade other structures.

He elevated the underground tomb, warehouse, burial grounds, walls, arrow towers, and hall of the dead all to level four.

As the upgrades were finalized, the area designated for resource storage within the territory became instantly vacant.

After attending to all tasks, it was time for dinner.

Perhaps due to the prospect of new attire appeared to be in an exceptionally good mood.

She enthusiastically introduced the ingredients for dinner while feeding Fong Ha with her own hands.

Just as they were savoring their meal, a long- aaited system notification echoed in their ears once more.

Congratulations, you have successfully survived for 13 days.

In 10 hours, all surviving lords territories will enter the mandatory quest Nature's Revenge.

At that time, all territories will be subject to an assault by nature's guardians.

The number of nature's guardians will be adjusted based on the total resources collected within the last 14 days.

Good luck.

The sudden imposition of this quest left Fong how momentarily taken aback.

He quickly turned to glance at the wooden board marking the passage of time.

Today marked the 13th day since his arrival.

In 10 hours, it would be the 14th day.

Could it be that a mandatory quest occurs every 7 days? Chapter 84.

The second round of mandatory tasks.

The system notification sounded once more, leaving Fong how little time for contemplation.

Challenge task.

Nature's revenge.

Accepted.
