Chapter 18: The Wandering Cows

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Without any hesitation, he directly bought 2,000 units of wood. 2,000 silver for 2,000 wood. It was a huge profit.

[Please choose where you want to place it.]

Luo Yu chose to place the wood by a wall. He then opened the building page and began to build a watchtower.

After a while, a 15-meter tall watchtower was built. It was built at the corner where the walls on both sides met. When he climbed up to take a look, he felt a sense of superiority.

Luo Yu felt that shooting arrows or throwing javelins from this place could increase the effective range and power of the weapons.

This watchtower could not completely cover the defense of the base. Luo Yu’s plan was to install a watchtower at all four corners of the wall so that he could cover all angles.

At that time, he could also install things like automatic crossbow launchers to ensure the safety of the base.

Currently, he still had 5,300 silver coins that could be used to built the other three watchtowers. However, before that, Luo Yu first planned to make bows and arrows.

There were javelins for long-range combat and the Heavenly Crafting Saber for close combat. There was no doubt that bows and arrows were the best for medium-range combat.

[Iron Body Bow: 300 iron ore, 100 silver, 1 animal tendon]

There was enough iron ore and silver for the time being, but there were no animal tendons. As expected, he also could not find them when he opened the auction house.

Everyone had the need for bows and arrows. Moreover, animal tendons were also food. They might have been cooked and eaten.

“Where can I find a cow tendon?”

Luo Yu touched his chin and looked at Dumby, who was playing with the chicken below. Then, he looked at the Golden-shelled Beetle pulling the mining cart in the distance and shook his head.

These two were clearly not qualified, and he could not bear to kill them.

Just as he was at a loss, the system suddenly notified him: [A group of wandering cattle has entered your area. They will stay nearby for 1 to 2 days.]

Luo Yu’s eyes widened. Just as he was thinking about getting a cow tendon, a group of cattle actually wandered over?!

Sure enough, Luo Yu, who was standing on the watchtower, discovered three white cattle walking over from the purple mountain range and entering his territory.

[Wandering Cattle: Wild 90%, Neutral Creature]

Fang Yumeng: “There’s a cow! Aiya, it’s going to my fruit forest!”

Niu Da: “I’m much more handsome than those cows! F*ck, don’t eat my grass!”

Alice: “Everyone, don’t touch those cows. If you anger them, you will take the initiative to attack!”

Na Ke’er: “Oh no, a cow is going to my vegetable field. My food! i’m going to kill it! I’m agile enough!”

Alina said, “I advise you to think carefully. Even if you are agile enough, can your cabin withstand the impact of their horns?”

Na Ke Er: “Sigh… You’re right. If they turn into an enemy unit, they won’t attack people but will instead attack buildings.”

“That won’t do either. I have to hunt it!”

Fang Yumeng: “Should I try to tame it?”

Luo Yu: “Don’t. An animal with 90% wildness has a very low of being tamed. If you fail to tame it, it will take the initiative to attack you!”

Fang Yumeng: “Alright, I’ll listen to you!”

The chat group exclaimed. Seeing how thick these cows were, everyone seemed a little helpless. They could only watch as they nibbled on their vegetable field and grass.

This seemed like an ordinary incident, but it posed a threat to the crops in their territory!

Luo Yu looked at the three cattle that were swaying over and walking towards the bamboo forest and frowned slightly. Don’t tell me they want to eat my bamboo shoots?

How could he tolerate this?

Luo Yu said, “I have a wall here, so I’ll test the combat power of a cow for you first!”

Fang Yumeng and Na Ke’er: “Be careful!”

Luo Yu was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, he sized them up carefully. Under his observation, he realized that there were two cows and a bull among the three cattle. That bull was extremely strong and probably weighed 1,500 catties. It looked to be comparable to a rhinoceros.

Luo Yu did not want to fight them head-on, as it was not a wise move.

However, although the bull was strong, Luo Yu’s critical hit today had not been used. With it, he had the ability to kill it in one strike. He looked at the javelin.

The distance was a little far. Although he could throw it over with his strength, his aim would definitely be poor. Moreover, if he threw it into the bamboo forest, it would definitely lower his accuracy. After thinking for a while, he had an idea.

A moment later, Luo Yu opened the stone gate and said to Dumby beside him, “Infuriate those three cattle and run back!”

“Woo…”

With this order, not only did Dumby not show any fear, but it let out a bloodthirsty roar. Its expression was ferocious, displaying the demeanor of a wild wolf.

The next moment, Dumby rushed straight into the bamboo forest!

“Moo!”

The three cattle were shocked and hurriedly retreated, but Dumby rushed forward to bite the hind leg of a female cow!

Moo!

The bull immediately flew into a rage and charged at Dumby with its horns. If not for Dumby’s agility, it would have been hit.

[The three cattle are enraged and are in a hostile state.]

The bull was even angrier when it missed. It rushed towards the fleeing Dumby. The two cows were also in a hostile state. On the grassland, three huge cows chased after a green wolf.

Dust flew all the way. Luo Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the distance of 200 meters. He then shouted, “Die!”

He used all his strength to throw the javelin. Although he did not use a critical hit this time, the speed of the javelin was still extremely fast. It carried a strong wind and rushed out.

After all, he had more than 30 points of strength!

However, to Luo Yu’s surprise, the javelin flew past the bull’s scalp and missed!

Lv3 shooting was indeed not high. At this level, with a distance of more than 100 meters, his hit rate was only 20%…

“Huh?”

The corners of Luo Yu’s mouth twitched. It was already too late for him to shoot another javelin.

He stood at the crack of the gate and shouted, “Quick, Dumby, come in!”

Dumby ran very fast, and with a swoosh, it slipped through the gap in the door. The next moment, Luo Yu directly closed the stone door and reinforced it with a wooden stick!

After doing all this, he quickly ran up the wall and saw the three angry cattle running over. It looked like they were going to break open the stone gate with force!

BANG!

With a loud bang, Luo Yu felt the entire wall shake. Then, there were another two bangs as the three cattle slammed into the stone gate one after another.

Under the huge force, cracks appeared on the stone gate. The wooden stick tied to the gate broke, but the three cattle were also lying on the ground.

He was stunned!

Luo Yu was stunned for a moment before a smile appeared on his face. No matter how hard your head was, could it be tougher than a gate made out of black spotted stone?

“Are they dead?”

Just as Luo Yu was feeling curious, the bull in the middle actually stood up shakily. It rubbed its body against the two cows and realized that they were motionless. Its blood-red eyes stared at Luo Yu above, and its burly body began to spin restlessly under the stone gate.

“You can still get up?”

“Strong!”

Luo Yu was a little shocked, but he had already made up his mind to deal with these three cattle.
