The temple, the population in the territory reached 100,000, 30,000 gold coins were consumed, and 10,000 building materials were built.

Once the temple is completed, you will be able to gain the power of faith in your territory.

And the power of these beliefs will be gathered in Rhodes, who will become a god of the faith of the people in the territory.

Or that false gods are more appropriate.

And the altar, which consumes soul crystals, can summon powerful lifeforms from it.

Soul Crystals can only be obtained if a lifeform with a professional-level strength or higher dies.

To build an altar, you need 10,000 gold coins, 5,000 building materials, and 100 soul crystals.

Achieving the completion goals of these two buildings will be difficult to accomplish in the short term.

In addition to these basic buildings, the blueprints for other buildings are closely related to the territory controlled by Rhodes.

And these "miracles" that appeared through the planks of the lord should not appear too often.

Armed with the lord template, Rhodes has determined that the best path for him is Shinto.

Before he had enough strength, he didn't want to attract the attention of the gods too soon.

Ten years later, the Abyss Invasion was the perfect time.

At that time, the gods were too busy to take care of themselves, the old gods fell, the authority was scattered in the world, and countless new gods emerged.

......

After performing a miracle.

The loyalty of the Shanyue people has been increased and they willingly accept Rhodes' rule.

The Shanyue people who were freed in the Goblin Battle are now in the position of Centurion and Centurion, and no one chooses to leave.

A week passed.

The appearance of the gray stone valley has changed greatly, and after the miracle appeared, it brought extremely high enthusiasm for work to the people of Shanyue.

One week.

Houses made of earth and stone were built, and most of the Shanyue people had a place to live.

Next to the barracks, a tall orc is armed with a weapon.

In the clearing of the valley, mountains of hematite ore piled up, and hundreds of goblins died in just seven days.

A convoy laden with food slowly drove into the territory.

When they saw Rhodes, they naturally saw the hematite in front of them like a hill.

Several businessmen almost plucked their beards out of fright.

The story of this "wise" lord Rhodes has recently spread in the city of Bergas.

Bought a group of Shanyue slaves as soldiers, and recruited a group of goblin slaves.

They also spend a lot of money to buy food to feed this group of waste.

The Shanyue people in the barren land and the goblin lord became famous after the name, and it became a joke after tea and dinner in many neighborhoods.

Quite a few businessmen come here to see the jokes.

But the hematite piled up in front of them almost dazzled their eyes.

The Kingdom of Farley has been fighting for years, and the number of weapons consumed each year is an astronomical amount.

However, the few large iron mines in the Kingdom of Farley are mostly in the hands of large families, and the ores and weapons are extremely dependent on imports.

In the eyes of a group of businessmen, this pile of hematite ore instantly turned into a golden cutie.

A merchant couldn't bear it at first, and took advantage of the gap between the grain handovers to ask.

A group of merchants approached quickly, like wolves that smelled blood.

"Mr. Akron, I don't know what these ores are?"

Akron generally counted the grain, instructed the Shanyue people to move the grain into the warehouse, and generally pretended not to care and said:

"When the lord exterminated this group of goblins, a fire burned the mountain, but the next day as soon as the fire was extinguished, the mountain collapsed. ”

"Well, these ores were found after the collapse, and after careful exploration, I didn't expect that there was a hematite vein under this mountain. ”

Akron's words made the eyes of the merchants twinkle, and many merchants with noble backers had other thoughts in their hearts.

"I wonder how big this vein is?"

A pot-bellied, shrewd-looking businessman asked in a loud voice.

Akron glanced at the merchants and sighed helplessly: "After discovering the ore vein, Lord Rhodes immediately invited a magician to investigate, and finally found a small ore vein not far from the surface. It is estimated that it will be exhausted in a year or two. ”

A group of merchants were knocking on the side to inquire about various news, and a group of tall orcs approached with weapons in hand.

The sound of neat footsteps, coupled with the tall figure and wild face of the orc, is extremely conspicuous.

"Who are these orcs?"

A businessman who had been here last time hurriedly asked.

Aren't it just Shanyue people and goblins? Where did these orcs come from?

Akron glanced at the orc guards passing by, a faint hint of pride on his face.

"You should know that Lord Rhodes is a demon of pure blood. ”

"They are Lord Rhodes' army of demon servants!"

Akron's words made a kind of businessman look at each other.

Why is it that all of a sudden, the "wise" Lord Rhodes seems to be really wise?

"I wonder how many of these orcs there are?"

A businessman asked, lowering his voice.

Orcs, fierce, good at fighting, and fearless of death.

Creating one of the best armies in the world, forming an orc army is a nightmare for every lord.

"No comment. ”

Akron closed the ledger in his hand and looked at the group of merchants.

"I think you're more interested in the buying and selling of the ore behind you. ”

A group of businessmen let go of the doubts in their hearts and rushed to pounce.

In the evening, the caravan returned with a full load.

Sell all the ore, and Rhodes has an extra 2,000 gold coins in his account.

Relying on this hematite, Rhodes can get 8,000 gold coins in his account a month.

However, as the goblin's ability to work decreases and the veins on the ground are gradually mined, this number will soon decline.

It is necessary to improve the strength as soon as possible in order to build a large-scale mine.

Only with sufficient strength can Rhodes transform this vein beyond the imagination of everyone into corresponding benefits.

The top priority is to increase the capacity of the barracks.

The first level of the barracks required twice as many supplies as the first level to be upgraded to the second level.

The two-level barracks required 10,000 gold coins and 5,000 building materials.

In is to build an altar and summon heroes strong enough to flesh out the faction.

Before the temple was built and the power of faith gathered, Rhodes was a weak chicken.

He didn't want to be beheaded for no apparent reason.

And all these plans are closely related to war.

......

The long caravan left the barren land.

Soon, a messenger left the group and ran into the distance, disappearing at the end of the horizon.

They were to report to their lords about the hematite.

As truckloads of hematite ore drove into the city of Bergas.

Once again, the deeds of the "wise" lord spread.

In a secret room, several nobles dressed in elaborate costumes gathered.

They were tall and short, fat and thin, and all wore intricately patterned masks on their faces.

"That demon, has the information about that hematite mine been clarified?"

A hoarse voice came.

"I'm stepping up my investigation, and I've sent ten times as many details to find out the news. A man in the corner said.

"Sure enough, every Demon Descendant is not to be underestimated. I don't believe that the appearance of this hematite mine was accidental, there must be something wrong with a demon descendant staring at a barren land for some reason. ”

Sitting on the left-hand side, a young man with a silver mask said.

"The Grand Duke's decision to make the barren land the domain of that demon descendant is tricky, and you all know the temper of that Grand Duke. ”

"If this demon descendant and the Grand Duke are behind this matter, it will be even more troublesome. ”

"Or send an assassin directly. After getting rid of him, it will be clear what secrets this barren land has. ”

"No, the Demon Servant Army is a problem, and the Demon Family behind him is even more of a problem. If those Shanyue people are used as sacrifices to communicate the arrival of the abyss demons, you will only send people over to die. ”

"Demons and demons wear a pair of pants. ”

"Then what should we do? Don't let this demon influence our plans for Bolgas, you should all have received the prince's orders. ”

A group of people discussed and expressed their opinions.

The slender woman in the golden mask tapped her fingers on the table.

The crowd quickly fell silent and sat upright.

"When this demon entered Bergas, he behaved in an extremely orderly manner, and everything was done in a dignified manner. ”

"He must have made some kind of agreement with the Grand Duke, otherwise he can't explain why his army of demon servants is only now in the eyes of everyone. ”

"In that case, let's test it first. ”

A cold and pleasant voice sounded slowly.

"Isn't there a barren land inhabited by a number of gray mercenary groups and bandits, this demon descendant has exterminated the goblin tribe and cut off their financial routes. If we pay them, they'll be willing to make some trouble for the Greystone Lord. ”

"Also, contact the sand pirates of the Desert Empire. The head of a pure-blooded demon descendant, presumably they will be very interested. ”

"Render up some of the information we've gathered and put it in the hands of the new Lord of the Rhine. ”

"On the side of the couch, in addition to a tiger, another demon has come. Presumably she will be even more restless, and I hope you will not be stingy and give a helping hand. ”

"You are acting in a way that wants to hide your identity and not be caught by the demon. ”

"As long as we don't make a mortal feud, that demon descendant may be a potential ally of ours in the near future. ”

"Sit quietly and watch the tiger fight. There must be someone in the city of Bergas who is more anxious than we are, and shows their fangs first. ”

After the bewitching woman finished speaking, her white fingers tapped lightly on the tabletop.

The group quickly stood up and bowed their heads.

"Yes, Lord Chief. ”
