The moment the text disappeared from Su Hao’s vision, the warehouse of the Holy Light Castle had grown twice as large as before.

The beast’s fur and meat, which had been piled up like a mountain, now looked spacious due to the increase in space.

However, it was only temporary.

The next second, 2000 units of wood, 2000 units of stone, 500 units of iron, and 20 tons of coal immediately appeared on the shelves of the warehouse.

The sparse storage unit a second ago was filled to the brim in an instant.

Su Hao walked in and saw that there was almost no gap on the shelves on the four walls.

Even the ground was filled with all those items.

Then, the militia leader’s voice came from outside the door!

“My Lord! We went out to collect wood and got a total of 10 stacks! But a third of the militia were injured! They’re all waiting outside for you!” He said piously as knelt down on one knee, placed his right fist on the left side of his chest, and looked up in shock.

Su Hao stood with his hands behind his back. He turned around and said faintly, “Understood.”

It seemed that his militia’s combat ability was rather weak indeed. Even if they were strong, they might not be a match for the fierce beasts outside.

In that case, it would be better to leave the militia in the castle and have them be responsible for construction, while the Holy Light Bugs could then be in charge of combat. That could then be a decent strategy to minimize the injury rate.

Su Hao then said to the militia, “Those who are injured can bandage up your wounds and wait for the Holy Healing Spring to be built. As for the others, start building the Holy Healing Spring and the two arrow towers!”

“Yes, My Lord!”

The militia shouted in a sonorous and powerful voice.

The militia started work immediately.

Su Hao built the Holy Healing Spring at a location about 500 meters in front of the Holy Light Castle.

More than 20 militiamen were holding hoes and materials for building the Holy Healing Spring. They were sweating profusely as they worked hard and dug the soil.

Su Hao was resting in the room on the second floor, but within 20 minutes, he heard the leader coming to report!

“My Lord! The Holy Healing Spring and the two arrow towers are ready! How else can we be in service?”

Su Hao opened his eyes and looked outside. His eyes lit up instantly, and he saw a circular pool that occupied an area of about 30 square meters.

In the middle of the pool were several waves of clear, blue water.

The water was none other than the water of the Holy Healing Spring that seeped out from the ground.

The only way to obtain them was through special underground construction.

The round rock wall was paved with smooth white tiles with a few bright, colorful gemstones embedded in them.

Su Hao was rather pleased. His militia were all strong men, and although they were not good at dealing with wild beasts, their construction ability was unexpectedly strong.

In just 20 minutes, a gorgeous yet simple Holy Healing Spring had been built.

On the other side, the two arrow towers Su Hao ordered to be built were present at two corners in front of the castle. They were less than five meters away from the surrounding wall.

Their goal was to attack the beasts and other forces from the outside at a closer distance!

He saw that the arrow tower was about five meters tall, and the top floor was a tower that automatically fired arrows.

Their current level was at one, and their damage was only 10 HP.

On the other hand, a level one Black Panther had around 500 HP, which meant that a level one arrow tower would need 50 seconds to fire 50 arrows to kill a Black Panther.

Therefore, the strength of a level one arrow tower was far from enough.

He had to continue upgrading it!

With that in mind, he glanced at the militia outside the door and gave his orders. “Get the injured militiamen to draw water from the Holy Healing Spring and drink it. Let the uninjured ones continue upgrading the arrow tower!”

“Yes, My Lord!”

The leader of his militia immediately responded.

At the same time, the appearance of the Holy healing spring added a different feel to his originally empty territory.

Then, Su Hao took a look at his personal information.

[Castle Lord: Su Hao]

[Castle Name: Holy Light Castle]

[Strength: Level one]

[Castle Level: Level 2 Castle]

[Castle Troop Type: Holy Light Bug (unique troop type)]

[Castle Building: Summoning Altar x 1, Holy Healing Spring x 1, Level 1 Arrow Towers x 2.]

[Gold Coins: 255000 gold coins]

[Energy Stones: 3]

[Mutant Crystals: 0]

After glancing through his information, Su Hao thought that it was about time that the Holy Light Bugs would have a harvest that day.

As expected, many more corpses of wild beasts appeared in front of the castle a few seconds later.

Su Hao collected them one by one. In total, he collected 205 units of meat, 35 furs, 16 energy stones, and 2 mutant crystals.

The total amount of resources in the warehouse was as follows—in addition to the 100 units of meat that had not been sold, he now had a total of 305 units of meat, and in addition to the 13 furs from before, he now had a total of 48 furs. Finally, he had 19 energy stones and two mutant crystals.

…

At that point, it was not just the corpses of the beasts that returned, there were also thousands of injured Holy Light Bugs!

He saw the militia filling up the Holy Healing Spring with water in wooden buckets!

A golden light suddenly exploded!

The militia was so frightened that they took a step back.

Then, he saw a cluster of golden Holy Light Bugs shuttling back and forth in the darkness!

Their formation was so terrifying that it seemed as if the entire sky above the castle was shrouded in this golden light.

In the next second, thousands of injured Holy Light Bugs landed in the Holy Spring Water!

Speckles of starlight flickered in the clear blue lake.

Such was the power of the Holy Healing Spring. Its divine power had some connection with the soldiers.

With the appearance of the Holy Healing Spring, thousands of injured Holy Light Bugs had already flown back to heal their injuries without waiting for Su Hao to summon them.

Su Hao lowered his gaze slightly as he looked quietly at the Holy Light Bugs in the Holy Healing Spring.

A few thousand densely packed, glowing Holy Light Bugs filled up the 30-square-meter Holy Healing Spring.

The Holy Light bug, which was originally only 3cm in size, had almost doubled in size, reaching a whopping 6cm!

Furthermore, the shell on the back of the Holy Light Bugs were also tougher, its wings were larger, and its six feelers were even thicker.

Seeing this, Su Hao had a general idea of how many Holy Light Bugs there were—currently, the number of Holy Light Bugs outside have reached at least tens of thousands!

After all, the number of Holy Light Bugs that had returned had reached a few thousand, and each one had become stronger and larger.

That meant that the Holy Light Bugs outside would only be stronger and larger in scale.

There was even the possibility that the Holy Light Bugs which had stronger resistance to injuries could grow into bug kings.

Upon seeing that, Su Hao could already imagine what would happen if the invasion of darkness finally came.

His Holy Light Bug troop would be invincible!
