Everyone Became Lords: I Became A Base-Building Fanatic - Chapter 34

Chapter 34 Spirit Power

Just as Fang Ping was mass-producing firearms and ammunition to change the equipment of his skeleton army, the joint army of the Bone Strength Goblin Tribe and the Dark Zero Race had already gathered together and were charging toward Fang Ping’s territory.

However, as soon as the joint army of the two races walked out of the Goblin Tribe, they were discovered by the Skeleton Soldiers that Fang Ping had arranged to monitor nearby. When the alliance army was far away, the Skeleton Soldiers that were hiding quickly got up. After circumventing the route of the alliance army, they began to rush towards Fang Ping’s territory at high speed. They hoped that after Fang Ping learned about the alliance army, he could make preparations in advance to resist the attack of the alliance army.

With the Skeleton Soldiers running at full speed, they forcefully overtook the alliance army and arrived at Fang Ping’s territory before the alliance army.

When the Skeleton Soldiers saw the tightly shut gate of the territory in the distance, they immediately shouted at the Skeleton Soldiers guarding the city gate.

“Quickly open the city gate. I have something to report to the Lord!”

The Elite Skeleton at the city gate heard this shout. After confirming that there was only one Skeleton Soldier, he immediately opened the city gate and let him enter the territory.

Coincidentally, Fang Ping was at the pile of bones not far to the east of the city gate. He had just summoned today’s Undead creatures and was assigning missions to the Skeleton Soldiers.

When Fang Ping saw the Elite Skeleton rushing toward him, he immediately knew that the invasion of the Goblin tribe had begun.

The Elite Skeleton ran to Fang Ping at top speed and immediately spoke respectfully to Fang Ping

“Honorable Undead Lord, the Goblin Tribe and an unknown race are rapidly attacking our territory. According to their traveling speed, they will reach the periphery of our territory in at most half an hour.”

The Elite Skeleton’s report confirmed Fang Ping’s guess.

The Goblin Tribe, which was not good at dealing with Undead creatures, would definitely look for external help. However, it was unknown how strong the external help was and if it was effective against Undead creatures.

Although he did not know the situation of the other race, as long as he defended his territory, no matter what race it was, he could exhaust them to death.

Fang Ping’s face was brimming with confidence as he began to give orders. He mobilized the Skeleton Soldiers and set up traps outside the territory. Then, he moved all the forged arrows and ammunition to the wall and prepared to face the enemy.

At this moment, Gu La and An Li were in high spirits, discussing how to kill the Lich who dared to invade their tribe’s territory. They did not know that they had already lost the initiative before the war began. If they were so arrogant and conceited, what awaited them would be a complete annihilation.

“Gu La, what did this Lich do to make you hate him so much that you would kill him even if it cost you so much?”

“Don’t say that you’re afraid of an Undead Calamity. The Dark Zero Race knows a lot more about Liches than your Goblin Race. As long as it’s not a life-and-death grudge, Liches won’t easily cause an Undead Calamity.”

“It has to be known that even the weakest Undead Calamity takes more than ten years to accumulate. If it’s just because of a mine, with your personality that resembles a sly old fox, you definitely won’t pay a huge price to ask us to kill the Lich.”

An Li, who was riding on a dark Unicorn, teased Gu La, who was riding on a mount that looked like a cow or a horse.

Since both sides were cooperating, Gu La couldn’t ignore An Li’s question. Even if he didn’t say anything, An Li would definitely know the reason after destroying the Lich, so Gu La told An Li the reason.

“If it was just because of a mineral vein, we wouldn’t have fought a Lich so seriously.”

“However, besides snatching our mineral vein, they injured our leader’s son. They also extorted 100 firearms and 100,000 bullets from us.”

“Although these things are nothing to us, this matter has brought shame to our tribe. Therefore, the leader and the five elders have unanimously decided that we must kill this Lich to restore the dignity of our tribe.”

Initially, when An Li heard Gu La’s story, he felt that it was a little ridiculous. However, when Gu La told him that they had been extorted by the Lich for 100 muskets and 100,000 rounds of ammunition, he immediately stopped his Unicorn and questioned Gu La angrily. “Gu La, are you sending my warriors to their deaths!?”

“Although the Priests of the Dark Zero Race are powerful and specialize in restraining Undead creatures, their physical bodies are only equivalent to Level-2 creatures. We can still rely on our agile movement techniques to dodge in the wild when facing a fully formed firearms team.”

“But we’re going to attack a city, you bastard!”

However, Gu La did not feel angry at An Li’s question. Instead, he put on an evil smile and explained in a sinister tone.

“Don’t you already know what kind of person I am?”

“Would I be so willing to be blackmailed?”

“I’ve already tampered with that batch of firearms. As long as the Lich dares to use that batch of firearms, we won’t have to do anything. More than half of their defending forces will be injured.”

Under Gu La’s comforting explanation, the anger in An Li’s heart calmed down a little, but it was not completely extinguished. He snorted coldly at Gu La.

“The truth had better be as you say. Otherwise, your Bone Strength Goblin Tribe can only wait for our endless assassination.”

After An Li finished speaking, he urged his Unicorn forward, not giving Gu La any chance to explain himself.

At 12.10pm, the allied army of Goblins and the Dark Zero Race arrived at the tall forest 100 meters away from Fang Ping’s territory amidst a tense and suspicious atmosphere.

In the forest, when An Li and Gu La saw the sturdy and tall wall surrounding Fang Ping’s territory, as well as the hundreds of Skeleton Soldiers standing on it, they did not feel that Fang Ping could pose a threat to them by relying on these.

Hence, they had their subordinates, a portion of the Goblin Giants, lead the Goblin Warriors and charge forward. The Dark Priests followed closely behind, charging toward Fang Ping’s territory.

Meanwhile, when Fang Ping saw the alliance army charging at him, he did not panic at all. He arranged for the Skeleton Soldiers to attack the alliance army with arrows and boulders first to make them let down their guard. At the same time, he used the system’s innate detection function to check what power the other race in the alliance army had to restrain Undead creatures.

[Strength: Level-4)

[Race: Dark Zero Race)

(Class: Dark Priest]

[Note: A rare class of the Dark Zero Race. They possess Spirit Power and have an extremely strong restraining ability against Undead creatures. However, their weakness is obvious. Their physical strength will be half of their own strength. Moreover, the range of use of their Spirit Power is limited by their strength.]

(Level-1 Dark Priests have a range of one meter. The range will double with every subsequent level. Level-4 Dark Priests have a range of eight meters.]
