Everyone’s a Land Ruler, Rolling Demon Soldier Types at the Start - Chapter 24

Chapter 24: Future Prospects

At this moment, Joey also discovered this information regarding the demons.

“I didn’t expect that the other Lords would discover them so quickly!”

“It was even sent to the world chat channel, completely exposing my demon army.”

After the hunting party returned to their territory, they also reported the day’s gains and experiences to Joey.

That militia lord was simply courting death!

Could it be that demons were necessarily evil?

Then wouldn’t I, the demon Lord, lose my image?

To actually incite people to surround and attack me, how preposterous!

Up until now, Joey’s subordinates’ combat strength was already quite formidable.

The main combat strength was Liang and Little Smart, who were up to level eight.

The secondary combat strength was tall, short, fat, and thin.. The five demons were also at level six.

There were more than 20 Level-4 and Level-5 miscellaneous demons.

Among the hundreds of millions of Lords, they were definitely a very powerful force.

Should we let that kid test our siege ability?

Although the enemy seemed to have a strong archer.

After thinking about it, it was better not to be impulsive.

After all, the Beast Tide was about to arrive. That guy might not be able to withstand it and die, so there was no need to dirty his hands.

“The most important thing is to continue grinding hard!”

“Don’t worry about those idiots for now!”

“Merge the original hunting squads into two groups. Try to gather as much information as possible. If it’s not necessary, try to reduce conflicts with other forces as much as possible!”

Joey decided on a strategy.

“Yes, sir!”

“Master is wise!”

..

Just as the soldiers were fighting hard outside and contributing their time and strength to Joey, Joey was not idle either. He was carefully planning his future development.

Most of the materials were handed over to Liz to be used to forge equipment. The warehouse that was freed up was basically filled with wood, stone, and refined iron.

As the demons did not need food, the territory only needed to store a small amount of food for Joey.

A large amount of food that was usually obtained from hunting was all put on the trading space. It was mainly used to exchange for stone.

As the forest area was rich in wood resources, it was easy to cut down and collect it. In addition, there were rat-people slaves living not far from the city who were also using wood to exchange for food, so Joey rarely bought wood compared to stone.

Moreover, Joey had to support some wood for the Little Loli in the mountain area. She lacked wood resources, and she also needed a large amount of fuel for smelting and forging.

Hence, the other lords had a 2:1 ratio of wood and stone, while Joey had a 1:2 ratio.

“Currently, I have around 100,000 wood, 200,000 stone, and 9,000 refined iron…”

“If the next batch of equipment from Lise can be sold for more than 4,000 refined iron, then I can level up the main city and build the Demon God’s temple at the same time!”

“The future plans will still depend on the changes in the town and the rewards of the Beast Tide!”

Joey stood on the wall of the castle, and in the distance was a forest.

He knew that his demon subordinates were all working hard to hunt inside.

“Unfortunately, I’m only Level 4 now. Even if I have the eagle feather set equipment, I don’t dare to move around in the wild!”

“I don’t have a suitable weapon either. I can’t possibly fight with wild monsters with my bare hands!”

“It’s not like I have a body as strong as a demon’s!”

He walked around the territory. The vast territory seemed empty. There was quite a lot of empty space in the high-level castles. Other than the city walls and a few subsidiary watchtowers, there were only two buildings — the warehouse and the main castle.

The feeling of loneliness made Joey sigh involuntarily.

The demon that was left behind at this moment was none other than little fatty.

“I wonder why the supreme-being is sighing. Isn’t our development path very good and perfect?”

Joey shook his head.

“It’s not that. It’s loneliness!”

“It’s a pity that the lords who are on good terms with each other in the infinite continent are separated by thousands of miles. I don’t even know what they look like!”

Although Little Fatty couldn’t understand his master’s feelings, he could understand some of the problems.

“Supreme one, do you mean you can’t understand your allies better?”

“… more or less!”

“In the infinite continent, anything is possible. As long as we increase the strength of our territory, nothing is impossible!”

“In the end, it’s still a matter of strength! Architecture, equipment, skills, technology…”

..

On the wild grassland, Annie led the Lions back to her castle, Chang ‘an city.

“Now I have more than a dozen level 5 gold battle lions, and the Lion King is Level 7, and has stepped into the ranks of commander-level combat units!”

After a day of hard fighting, Annie’s subordinate lion king had also leveled up.

It even unexpectedly obtained the commander-level skill.

Annie jumped off the lion’s huge body. Although she had been riding on the lion all day while hunting, she was still very tired. For a moment, she felt that she could not stand properly.

The huge lion that was crouching down gently helped Annie stabilize her body with its front legs. Its golden eyes revealed the arrogance and unruliness of the king of beasts.

[ Name: Eltek ]

[ Race: Golden War Lion ]

[ Level: 7]

[ Beast King: commander-level special ability. It can steadily increase the morale and attack ability of beast-type soldiers in the same camp. It can also deter the beasts that affect the enemy. ]

[ As an evolution version of a top-tier soldier, the Beast King War Lion with the leadership talent has a better chance of evolving into a higher-level existence. ]

Annie often fought with the lion pride by herself, so her level rose very quickly. She was one level higher than Joey, and had reached the fifth level of elite combat level.

However, like Joey in other aspects, she lacked combat equipment and combat skills. In fact, she only had the combat strength of a level-4 monster in the wild.

“I’ve received another huge improvement today!”

“It’s a pity that Joey was able to kill a level 8 giant eagle monster before. Now, he must have at least a powerful level 8 combat strength!”

“I can only hope that the battle lions’ racial talents can be put to good use in the Monster Horde. That might be the first opportunity for me to surpass Joey. If I miss it, I’ll have to wait for a long time.”

It was almost night, but Annie still did not want to rest. She made the best use of her time to raise the territory’s combat strength.

The grassland region was short of wood and stone, and even the resources of wild monsters were not many. Compared to the lords who were born in forests, hills, plains, and other terrain, Annie had to work harder.

In the evening, under the golden sunlight, Annie followed the war lions to gather the scattered wood and stones on the grassland, and then moved them back to the main city.

She ignored the meaningless flattery and bragging in the private chat and rejected the resources and materials that many people gave her.

On the contrary, she often went to help the lords who were in a more difficult situation. Many people called Annie the Goddess.

Whether it was grateful praise or jealous slander, she just laughed it off. The only thing that made her want to win and prove herself was Joey’s surprise and approval.

“Unlike others who seek hegemony for their own selfish interests, what I seek is to become a god and redeem all of our transmigrators as much as possible!”

This was Annie’s goal.

Of course, the short-term goal was to trample Joey under her feet.
