I Am The Only Top-up Player - Chapter 32

Chapter 32 Burn the Energy Stone in the Warehouse!

(Thank goodness! I’m alive! The first invasion is over!)

(My castle is reduced to only a few wooden stakes and it’s basically a ruin now. I need a lot of resources to repair it!]

(You’re not the only one! My castle has been razed to the ground by the red monsters. I only got about 40,000 to 50,000 gold coins, and less than 30 energy stones. I didn’t manage to get any other resources.]

[Our rewards are highly disproportionate to the gains!]

[I don’t have many energy stones and mutant crystals left, and there’s nothing for me to use to upgrade my castle!]

(That’s a little misleading! My castle was upgraded from level 3 to level 5 during the darkness invasion!)

[Me too! But I heard that level 5 is already the highest level for a castle to level up. Any higher and it’ll become a city-state! Elements are required to level up to a city-state!)

[Elements? Where can I get those elements? Why haven’t I seen them when my soldiers killed wild beasts?]

[I’m guessing only the Big Shot Su Hao knows about this! He’s the only one who obtained the elements before the invasion of darkness, or else there’s no possible explanation for why his castle became a city-state.)

(What? He was already this strong before the invasion?]

(Yeah! And I heard that you need to kill level 10 monsters with special intelligence to obtain elements!]

[If my forces hadn’t suffered heavy losses, level 10 would’ve been a piece of cake!)

(But we have almost no resources now. How are we going to collect them? We can’t even maintain our own castle!]

The discussion among the city lords continued, but those irrelevant praises did not matter to Su Hao.

He was only interested in practical things.

Whether it was to trade things that were no longer useful to him such as gold coins, energy stones, or mutant crystals, it did not really matter what it was that he wanted to trade.

More important than anything else was the unit price.

After all, many of the castle lords were severely injured, and some of them had even leveled up to level 5.

resources

At that juncture, their need for resources and various elements would be even greater than ever before.

Their current forces and manpower had suffered heavy losses, and their survival was still up in the air.

Su Hao therefore knew that everything would be sold out regardless of how high he raised the price.

When he made his decision, he put the remaining 20 or so elements, as well as his inexhaustible number of energy stones, mutant crystals, and wood on the (Trading Channel].

[One element for 100,000 gold coins!) [One mutant crystal for 50,000 gold coins!)

[One energy stone for 30,000 gold coins! ]

[One stack of wood and stone for 20,000 gold coins!]

[A total of 21 elements, 1,700 energy stones, 700 mutant crystals, and 5 million stacks of wood and stone available!]

[Holy Light Castle: Su Hao.]

As soon as that message appeared on the [Trading Channel], all the other lords were dumbfounded and beyond shocked to read it!

[I’m not seeing things, am I? Did you guys see the number of resources announced by Big Shot Su Hao?]

[I had to wipe my glasses before taking another look. If my eyes serve me right, then this number is totally bragging.)

[Damn, I don’t even have 10 stacks of wood remaining, and Big Shot Su Hao is now selling 5 million stacks of wood?!)

(Exactly! He’s even offering 1,700 precious energy stones? This is frightening! He must’ve killed tens of thousands of wild beasts to reach that level! I’m not even worth one of Su Hao’s toes!]

(Oh God! These elements really do exist! I thought everyone was just making things up! That means we really need them once we reach level 5 and above!]

(Elements are incredibly difficult to obtain. A level 10 intelligent beast must be killed first. And here we see Su Hao offering 21! Insane!]

[Stop praising him, everyone! Don’t you see how much gold coins he’s asking for? It’s practically cutthroat!)

(Sob! I finally see what you mean, but no matter how expensive it is, I have no choice but to buy it! My troops have suffered heavy injuries and they can’t go out to collect resources for the time being! Repairing my castle and my troops are most important at this stage.]

[1 +1]

At the same time, Su Hao was having dinner in his castle when the information of all his transactions began appearing before him! [Received 100,000 gold coins in exchange for an element!)

(Received 300,000 gold coins in exchange for 10 energy stones! ]

(Received 500,000 gold coins in exchange for 10 mutant crystals!]

A continuous stream of notifications were popping up.

At that moment, the leader of the soldiers came forward all of a sudden to report a situation.

“My Lord, the coal for the arrow towers have all been used up. What should we do?”

Arrow towers needed coal to generate energy for firing, but the coal had been used up long ago because they did not make a point to collect it.

The arrow tower’s energy consumption was too high during the invasion of darkness, causing most of the coal to have been used up long ago.

Therefore, the arrow tower no longer had the energy to shoot arrows.

After hearing the concern of his miltia’s leader, Su Hao said indifferently, “Use the energy stones in the warehouse.”

As soon as he said that, the head of his militia was stunned for a moment and had a look of disbelief. He could not help but ask again, “My Lord, are you sure we’re going to burn the energy stones?”

“What else is there to use?” Su Hao responded as-a-matter-of-factly.

The startled militia leader nodded hurriedly, “Yes, My Lord!”
