Everyone Has a Castle: I Choose Elves to be in My Army - Chapter 31

Chapter 31: Warm Up!

After Gale’s introduction, the Night Demon and its guards officially joined the Nightmare Team.

Perhaps due to the similarity of their own species, Night Demon (Mark) and Abyssal Demon (Novia) quickly became familiar.

Next, Gale issued the mission for the day.

Just like the previous few days, they were to hunt monsters.

Gale needed a large amount of monster materials to ensure that he could create more low-level equipment.

The more low-level equipment there were, the more they would earn.

Before the battle units left, Gale said, “While you are hunting monsters today, remember to pay attention to whether there are any local organizations around. If there are, try to find out the enemy’s strength.”

Since he was noticed by more natives, Gale did not intend to continue hiding.

He was prepared to take the initiative to attack!

If they wanted to dominate the Endless Lands, they had to attack these native factions.

Hunting monsters was only for food and materials. These were used to develop the castle.

In the end, everything would boil down to their fight with the locals.

This was the most unstable factor in the Endless Land.

Furthermore, there were generous rewards for destroying the Tribe Heart. This motivated Gale a lot.

Just like the heart of the Goblin village that was destroyed yesterday, the number of Origin Edges obtained could only be obtained by killing close to 100 low-level monsters!

From this point of view, if one wanted to obtain a large number of Origin Crystals and Origin Edges, they would need to attack the local factions.

“Yes, Master.”

The battle units responded in unison.

As soon as they finished speaking, every battle unit used their own abilities and floated in the air, heading towards those places with monsters.

“Even if the Nightmare Team encounters any powerful enemies, they can definitely sweep through them.”

“As long as it’s not a Tier 9 monster, they can deal with most problems.”

Gale did a calculation regarding the overall strength of his soldiers.

This was not empty talk.

Sometimes, the quantity of battle units was really important as well.

Especially when there was not much difference in levels, even if there was one more battle unit of similar level, it could turn the tide.

However, this situation was only limited to those before Tier 9.

Once a living being reached Tier 9, it was equivalent to coming into contact with the power of a god. Their strength was naturally different from before.

Silence returned to the castle after the battle units left, leaving behind Gale alone.

Usually, at this time, Gale would be surfing through the [World Chat] for news.

It couldn’t be helped. His work was so boring and simple.

Gale didn’t need to hunt monsters himself to increase his strength.

The monsters hunted by his battle units would always provide some energy to Gale.

Moreover, even if Gale wanted to follow, his battle units would not agree.

He opened his [Friend] list, dropping Natalie a message to ask about the progress and situation of the equipment forging.

At first, the direction of the conversation was alright.

However, in less than five minutes…

The direction of the conversation began to change from ‘work’ to ‘idle chatter’.

Natalie was like a chatterbox, sending messages one after another.

Most of them were complaining about the monsters not dropping blueprints.

At this, Gale finally found a sense of fairness.

If Natalie got the blueprint for every monster she killed… then Gale would need to start wondering if Natalie was the relative of the Goddess of Luck.

They chatted for a while longer before Gale ended the conversation.

He moved on to opening the [World Chat] channel.

Inside, regardless of the occasion, there was always a lively conversation.

This was also an important way for Gale to understand the development of the other Castle Lords.

Also, he could understand the distribution of the Endless Land in this channel.

After nearly an entire morning, he caught a few keywords.

[Barren Desert], [Life Burial Swamp], [Solgera Grassland], [Home of the Spirits], [Holy Land of the Dragon Race, [Snow Kingdom]….

The most eye-catching thing was that someone mentioned a [Forest of Death].

It was the area Gale was currently in.

In other words, there should be many Castle Lords in this region.

Maybe, there were even some that were not far off from Gale.

Towards them, Gale was not worried at all.

With his current strength, the other Castle Lords would only be sending themselves to their deaths if they tried to attack him. There was no need to fear them.

He was confident just because he had strength!

Of course, no Castle Lord would choose to go to war during the protection period as well.

After all, the castle was invincible during the protection period.

No matter what sort of power one possessed, one would not be able to break through it.

While trying to understand the situation, Gale edited a message and sent it out.

[Two days later, pure handmade equipment and weapons will be sold on the trading channel. The quality is guaranteed and the quantity is limited. First come first serve!]

Since he was preparing to do business, he naturally had to do some warmups.

As expected, once these words were spoken, it caused a huge discussion.

[Big Boss Gale is here with a lot of equipment!]

[He is indeed the number one person in the Endless Land. He is one galaxy ahead of us!]

[I bet that Gale is the first person to have the craftsmanship to forge equipment!]

[Big Boss Gale, what do you need to forge equipment?]

[Above, are you crazy from hunger? Even if you ask now, Big Boss Gale won’t be able to answer you!]

[According to my guess, you need something similar to a blueprint. I think you will need a Blacksmith Shop to forge stuff!]

[What is this blueprint? How do you obtain the blueprint? How do you use it after obtaining it? Tell me!]

[Don’t ask, the answer will be ‘I don’t know’!]

[I don’t even know what the blueprint looks like!]

More and more Castle Lords joined in the discussion.

Among them, there were many who displayed envy and jealousy.

The low levelled monsters most only dropped food. Even their Origin Edges were pitifully few.

Not to mention equipment, which was almost impossible to obtain.

Unless you were possessed by the Goddess of Luck, it was impossible to obtain equipment by hunting low-level monsters.

Looking at the rapidly flowing information, Gale smiled bitterly.

Indeed, Natalie was blessed by the Goddess of Luck.

[In two days, Big Boss Gale’s self-made equipment will appear!]

[Let’s not talk about it anymore. I have already started preparing the resources for the transaction. This time, I will definitely get some equipment!]

[Hehe, I don’t have much, just a lot of resources!]

[Upstairs, stop bragging!]

[If this batch of equipment is released, it will definitely cause a large number of Castle Lords to fight for it!]

[Are you talking nonsense? Of course everyone will fight for it! Equipment is the fastest way to increase the strength of soldiers. Maybe they can even pass the beast tide assessment. If they perform well, it’s not impossible to get some small rewards!]

[I wonder how many pieces of equipment will be released this time?]

[If Big Boss Gale created it himself, the quantity shouldn’t be too little!]

[I hope so!]

Indeed, if there was too little equipment, it would not be enough to satisfy each Castle Lord’s needs.

Gale was helpless about this too.

There were only two days left. Even if Natalie worked day and night, she would only be able to forge slightly more than 4,000 pieces of equipment.

There was no way they could satisfy all the Castle Lords present.
