Craig returned to the Dwarven Valley with countless supplies on Lid's orders.

Rebuild the tribe of the lions, which is the task given to him by the great crown.

Craig knows the rules of survival in the barren wasteland, and the original lion tribe relied on great strength to survive.

But after the last war, the lion tribe had lost its original spirit, and he had to find another way.

Rebuilding the Lion Tribe was not an easy task, but he would do it at any cost, absolutely.

Third, after Craig returned to the Barren Wasteland, he also returned to the Dwarven Valley after dealing with the backlog of government affairs.

It's mid-September, and he has to get the Dwarven Valley on track.

Because once you step into October, the orcs may start to invade at any point.

Back then, Daybreak didn't have much energy to deal with the Dwarven Valley.

Even the Mithril Vein will not summon too much power to defend it, because a new round of population raiding will be the most important job of this winter, and there will be no one.

Everything in Daybreak is built on population.

Not to mention anything else, even the power of faith that he urgently needs must be solved by obtaining a large number of people, otherwise he can only defend a mountain of gold and have no power to excavate.

In the space of a month, the Dwarven Valley has changed greatly under the development of Dawn City.

The dwarven city that had collapsed due to the war had been almost razed to the ground.

More than a dozen giant cyclops overthrew the remains of the buildings and excavated a huge pit, successfully digging into the Mithril veins below.

The current Dwarven Valley is a pure construction site, in which the Cyclops acts as the absolute main force, with more than 200 human miners and dozens of Bloods working in the middle.

The bare gray boulders, the yellow mud, the huge footprints, are no different from the construction site, the only difference is that there are no modern machinery here.

There are almost no traces of a dwarven city in the Dwarven Valley, only the beams and architectural remains that are faintly visible in the rubble mounds still indicate that there was once a civilization here.

The city that the dwarves were reluctant to tear down was taken care of by the cyclops.

"Under the crown of the first ancestor", Stanley, who was wearing a black priest's robe, immediately stepped forward to say hello when he saw Li De standing on the grass outside the construction site and stopped to watch.

After the dwarves and orcs were arranged, Stanley returned to the Dwarven Valley to preside over the situation.

Faced with the threat of an attack by orcs and dwarves at any moment, there must be a high-level figure with enough weight and intelligence to take control of the situation.

Stanley, who has outstanding intelligence and strength, is undoubtedly a very good candidate for his subordinates, whom Li De admires very much.

"How's the Mithril Vein being developed now??"

Li De stood in the open space next to the valley in a dark blue mage robe, and looked at the long line of mining teams with wooden bucket carts in front of them like ants, pushing wooden bucket carts, like ants.

Stanley's expression suddenly showed shame, and his tone was a little lower.

"Your Majesty, the Mithril Vein is more difficult to mine than we imagined, so far, less than 10 tons of ore have been produced, and we have only refined 3 pounds of Mithril ......"

Li De turned his head in some surprise, 3 pounds of Mithril? A pound weighs not much like a pound on earth.

In the past month, with such strong support from Daybreaker, only 3 pounds of Mithril have been refined??

Although Mithril is extremely rare and precious, it is not proportional to the investment.

If it's 30 pounds, it's about the same.

"Did you encounter any problems?"

"We have too few people...... Moreover, the Mithril veins are extremely hard, and ordinary human miners have no way to dig the ore, so they can only rely on the powerful Cyclops to mine.

Moreover, the veins are buried deep underground, and a large amount of soil and gravel needs to be removed to dig them.

Now ordinary human miners can only do the work of clearing dirt and rubble, and only the cyclops are actually mining.

And because the developed pit is too large, it can only accommodate two cyclops at present. ”

Hearing this, Li De's face was black, and he didn't calculate it, but the reason for the impact on efficiency was that the ore was too hard to dig ......

I'm xx you oo...... It's really life that is the master of drama.

The cause of this unfortunate foci made his eyelids jump.

"Any idea of a solution??"

Stanley's face was even more embarrassed.

"Unless a large number of professionals are mobilized, at least a warrior above level 5 is required to mine, otherwise even if all the cyclops can dig, it will be difficult to improve efficiency."

Li De shook his head.

Now the City of Dawn does not lack high-end combat power, he even has a level 18 bone dragon, and he is not afraid to fight at all.

But now the foundation of the City of Dawn is extremely weak, and the normal development of a force should be a pyramid model.

The number of lower layers is much larger than that of the upper layers.

But because of his rapid development, the current low-level combat power of Daybreak City is scarce, and only a few hundred blood clans and the 600 human army of the newly formed King's Blade can be regarded as low-level combat power.

But these low-level powers are extremely mismatched with the high-end powers he has.

He is not afraid to let Li De fight a high-end power duel with the enemy, but when he encounters this kind of thing that requires a background to do, he will be in pain.

Where did he get hundreds of professionals above level 5 to mine here?

The Covenant of Darkness exists, but it is impossible for him to let these uncontrollable forces come to the Mithril Vein, and how can these people from the underground forces go to mine unless they are crazy.

Li Degang patted his head as soon as he wanted to speak, and shook his head a little funny, what did he do in the Dwarf Valley?

Oversee the progress of the Mithril Vein, and also ask Craig to rebuild the Lion Tribe.

Aren't the orcs of the lion tribe ready-made miners? He had originally intended for the orcs to mine...... I almost forgot about business.

These two-bladed, powerful orcs are definitely the best miners.

The Dwarven Valley is in a barren wasteland, and there is not much here, but there are many orcs.

After finding the key point of the problem, Li De relaxed, waved his hand and said indifferently.

"Stanley, prepare to arrange for the humans to retreat, and only the Cyclops will be left here.

Mining for ore, we can use orcs. ”

"Orcs?" Stanley was stunned.

"You're a direct enslavement orc?"

"Slavery? No, I have no interest in enslaving orcs, I want ....... Rebuild the Lion Tribe! ”

Lide's tone was a little playful, "Have you seen Craig?" ”

Stanley nodded, "Of course, while Dylan delivered a large number of supplies three years ago, he also brought Craig and hundreds of orcs over.

At that time, the Cyclops almost clashed with his orcs. ”

After that, his brow furrowed slightly.

However, he did not stop in the dwarven valley, and after getting off the demon bat, he went out of the valley directly with hundreds of orcs, and his whereabouts were unknown.

I didn't listen much because of your message. ”

Although he used to be an enemy, he didn't pay much attention to it after Li De spread the news that this level 16 werewolf was now his own.

And judging from Craig's actions, the other party was obviously on a mission, and Stanley didn't dare to inquire at will under Li De's order.

"Well, Craig was arranged by me.

I'm going to rebuild the lion tribe and make the orcs masters of the dwarven valley again.

We won't need to put too much energy into being here, the orcs will work for us. ”

"Your Majesty, there is only one tribe controlled by Craig orcs, I'm afraid it won't be too big", Stanley shook his head, "Craig's strength is not enough to support a big tribe"

For this level 16 werewolf who was directly seconded, although Stanley did not look down on it, he did not have too many expectations.

If the other party is Karp, the orc king, he won't say a word, the combat power of the 18-level Karp burst out is impressive, and Craig is too much worse, the two are not the same grade at all.

Li De's expression was a little playful, "Of course, it's not just Craig, at most half a year, and then the king of the lion tribe, Karp, will also come." ”

Stanley's expression was relieved, and he was immediately relieved.

"In this way, there will be no problem in rebuilding the lion tribe."

Li De's eyes were deep.

"The Dwarven Valley will be our nail in the barren wasteland in the future, and the Lion Tribe will become a caries in the hands of the City of Daybreak."

Orcs won't do any harm to Dawnbreaker City in a short period of time, but Li De has always liked to take the initiative into his own hands.

The distance between the distant mountains and the Beast Melting Country is not far away, the Human Empire already has the Scarlet Mage Tower and the Dark Covenant, on the contrary, the orc who is not weak does not have any tentacles of power, which is not in line with his character.

The layout has always been designed with the distant future in mind......

————

On the barren wasteland, Craig looked hundreds of blades away, setting up a simple tent, the number of people was no more than a hundred Rao tribes, and his expression was very indifferent.

"Brown, bring people around them, this tribe now belongs to the lion tribe!"

Behind him, a werewolf warrior with a huge wolf head also stood up and nodded with a cruel expression.

"Yes, Mistress Craig,"

After that, 120 orc warriors wearing suits of armor, and each set of armor was a rare level, and the long knives in their hands flashed coldly.

The battle began so suddenly.

Facing the siege of a group of vicious wolves, this tribe of hundreds of Rao fell in just ten minutes.

By the time Craig left, the group behind him had grown to 200 people.

In the barren wasteland, strength has always been the guarantee of survival.

Without strength, they are all lambs.

Five years later, that is, the two that Li De came to the Dwarven Valley.

Craig returned to the Dwarven Valley.

At the same time, he was followed by more than 600 orcs.

This is the harvest of this level 16 werewolf warrior.

Craig's expansion is full of traces unique to orcs, savage and brutal, primitive and direct.

When Li De saw Craig, his face was very exciting, especially when he looked at the hundreds of orcs he was carrying behind him.

In just a few years, hundreds of orcs were brought back, and these orcs were all level 4~8 warriors, with fierce and ruthless momentum, each of them was obviously an orc soldier who had experienced a bloody battle.

The fur clothes on these orcs could not cover the scars on their bodies, and the muscles propped up the rough clothes high, and they looked primitive and ancient in their dress.

"Craig, how many of these subordinates did you go out to collect??"

Seeing the surprise on Li De's face, Craig's expression was a little proud, "Your Majesty, these are the tribes I conquered.

Now, they all belong to the lion tribe!! ”

Craig then recounted how he led his troops to conquer other orc tribes, and finally quickly expanded to the current size.

After hearing Craig's excited words, Li Defei did not praise him, but was speechless for a long time.

Looking at Craig, who seemed to think that this was normal, the operation was inexplicably a little headache.

He knew that orcs were upright or had no brains.

But I didn't expect it...... The other party is more exaggerated than he imagined.

He actually led troops directly to the door, killed those who resisted, and gathered those who surrendered...... MMP, this is rebuilding the Horde? This is not to raid the house and slaughter the family?

Stanley, who was next to him, also had a strange expression when he saw this scene.

I sighed in my heart, worthy of being an orc, the development force can be barbaric to such an extent and it has not been taken seriously.

It's only in the barren wasteland.

"Craig, there are many ways to recruit people......"

Li De looked at himself, a level 16 temple warrior, and for the first time, he felt a little headache when reasoning with his subordinates.

"It's inefficient for you to do this, and it's easy for your subordinates to resent, and it's not conducive to the formation of the tribe."

Craig looked at Li De with some blankness, "Your Majesty, the Barren Wasteland has always been like this to annex tribes...... Whoever is strong will have the most tribesmen and the most vast land.

It was also under the absolute power of the Kapu patriarch that the Lion tribe developed to the size of tens of thousands of troops......"

Li De suddenly didn't know how to speak, although he couldn't look down on this primitive and wild way, but this was the survival mode of the barren wasteland.

He couldn't deny right or wrong, after all, the poor living environment created the rules of survival of the fittest, and the powerful leader was more capable of leading the tribe's people to survive.

But when he came, he naturally wouldn't let Craig continue to do such stupid and unnutritious things.

"No, Craig, we have a lot of ways."

Li De looked at Craig's puzzled eyes and said slowly,

"What is most lacking in the barren wasteland? What do orcs want most? ”

Craig's eyes lit up, "What is lacking the most is food, and what I want most is food and armor!" ”

Li De nodded, fortunately this guy is not stupid.

"That's right, isn't there a particular lack of food this year??"

"Yes, if it weren't for the extreme shortage of food this year, the Karp Patriarch would not have easily ordered an attack on the dwarven tribe."

Craig nodded his head, and the huge wolf head looked a little naïve at this time.

"Then now that you have 2,000 sets of armor and weapons in your hands, and 5,000 people to eat for half a year, what can you do?"

"Your Majesty...... I'm ......" Craig was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Li De with some blankness.

Of course, if you have food, you can store it, and if you have weapons and armor, you can naturally equip your people.

But he felt that his thoughts didn't seem to be what Li De wanted, so he stammered and didn't dare to speak

Li De shook his head with tears and laughter when he saw this scene, and didn't explain directly.

"You can pick a group of smarter subordinates and let them spread the word to the surrounding tribes, the male lion is recruiting people......

As long as they pass the test of the Lion Tribe, the entire tribe can be merged into the Lion Tribe, and each warrior can receive a set of armor......

The lion tribe has enough food to survive this winter, as long as the orcs who take refuge in the lion tribe can guarantee food supply this winter, and no one will starve to death again.

And our lion tribe only recruits 5,000 orcs, and now it has recruited 2,000 people, and if it is full, it will not be recruited this year. ”

Rather than the primitive and brutal method of threatening force, Li De prefers to adopt a highly efficient method.

How much time does it take to go through them one by one? How much strength do you have to lose? It's not a good deal.

He Craig had already reported to him about the lack of food this year, and even such a powerful force as the Lion Tribe lacked food, so you can imagine how those tribes are doing.

I'm afraid that most of the orcs are desperate for the coming winter moon.

After all, not every orc can go to the human border to plunder food when the winter moon comes, and many more orcs still rely on their usual reserves to survive the cold winter.

And at this time, when these orcs are facing despair, a powerful tribe that can provide food and can also give them armor is willing to accept them, will these tribes be tempted?

There are at least 200,000 orcs living in this land of hundreds of miles near the Dwarven Valley, and a small number of them have taken refuge.

Li De didn't need much, only a few thousand people needed to restart the Dwarven Valley.

And after this news is released, if the orcs hear the news and are ready to start a war to plunder the food, it will be more to his taste.

A level 18 bone dragon, a level 16 bronze cyclops Corso, and a level 15 Dawnbreaker Bat King Castro, these three terrifying behemoths are now in the Dwarven Valley.

When the time comes, you can directly experience the way of an orc to expand its power.

As long as there is no such powerful orc king as Karp, Li De will not care at all.

According to Craig's information, the hundreds of kilometers around the Dwarven Valley are the territory of the Lion Tribe, and there are no other large tribes here.

So he didn't have anything to worry about.

Hearing Li De's words, Craig's mind turned around, and he nodded with a surprised expression, "Your Majesty, your wisdom is comparable to that of the Creation God!" ”

The wolf's head inexplicably made Li De feel a little happy at this time, very similar...... Erha ???

Although this level 16 werewolf has a straightforward personality, he is not stupid, but the rules of the barren wasteland make him almost impossible to think of this way.

Here, fists are the only way to communicate.

"Arrange people to do it, and in addition, be sure to highlight that we have to recruit a small number of people, and that we are about to finish recruiting, and highlight the urgency

And ......"

Li De patiently taught Craig how to spread the news, and finally the werewolf happily summoned his subordinates and explained what Li De had taught him.

Then hundreds of orcs left the Dwarven Valley with Craig's mission.

Li De looked at the orcs resting on the turf, and was keenly aware that it seemed that there was no group of orcs brought out of the city of dawn among these orcs.

Because when these orcs saw him, their eyes were not afraid.

He didn't believe the captured orcs hadn't seen him drive the bone dragon across the battlefield.

After asking Craig about this doubt, this wolf words made Li De look at him deeply.

"Your Majesty. The orcs I brought out knew about the City of Daybreak, and I was afraid that the other party would leak the news, so I let them rush to the front every time I fought, and all of them went to see the Grim Reaper. ”

Craig's tone was flat, as if something was normal.

Li De couldn't help but nod slightly, sure enough, he was a temple warrior who was absolutely loyal to him, and everything he did was in his interests.

In fact, he didn't care, those orcs were brought in and out with hoods, and it was impossible to know the location of Daybreak City.

The distant mountain range stretches for nearly 100,000 miles, spanning several empires, and in such a huge mountain range, there is not the slightest clue to find the City of Dawn, but I am afraid that it will not be a dream for decades.

There won't be that brain-dead force to do such a thankless job.

After arranging this matter, Li De was in a much happier mood.

"Your Majesty, the human miners have all been transferred back to Daybreak, and now only the Cyclops remain.

Do we need to keep them here? ”

Li De shook his head, the huge size of the cyclops has many advantages in production that humans cannot match, and it is also an important production tool in the City of Daybreak, so it is undoubtedly a waste to keep it in the Dwarf Valley.

Especially when he plans to build running water in the City of Dawn.

"Leave 5 and bring the rest of the cyclops back with them.

In addition, Harrison was instructed to bring a few dwarves from the Ministry of Construction to guide them on how to mine the Mithril Vein.

We're too inefficient right now. ”

The current mining speed is simply miserable, and Li De expects that if this speed of mining continues, the whole people will not wear the equipment forged by Mithril

Even the top-level combat power above level 15 in his hands can't wear Mithril equipment.

Especially the big guys like Corso, Castro, and the Bone Dragon, if you want to forge weapons for them, you need a lot of Mithril.

Professional things still have to be taught to professional people to do, and the dwarves have not been trusted before, so the mining of veins completely excludes the dwarves.

Now that the dwarves haven't fully integrated into Daybreak, they won't always think about rebelling, and it's time for them to contribute to Daybreak.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Let's go down"

Li De waved his hand casually.

——————

——————

In the following days, Li De has been supervising the progress of Craig's reorganization of the lion tribe in the Dwarven Valley, which is a key project for him to focus on, and he must see progress in a short time.

On top of that, he'll take a few hours off the line every time to deal with Crimson Moon.

Now that the Crimson Moon is in the run-in period, there are still many things to solve.

But fortunately, because of his high salary and Zhao Yue's efforts, few of the original management team left.

So the club that he just bought is generally stable, and it saves him a lot of trouble.

And as most of Crimson Moon's employees experienced Glory, their original resistance to the game that had not yet been tested immediately turned into a yearning.

The mentality that was originally quite complaining about Li De disappeared directly, and no one could escape the law of true fragrance.

Even the gamers who haven't been laid off can't help but be moved, it's too fake not to be moved in the face of this epoch-making virtual game.

They don't know the opportunities better than they do as a professional gamer.

On the contrary, these players envy the ...... who are preparing for "Glory"

At the same time, under the promotion of Li De, Zhao Yue, the assistant to the president, also successfully ascended to the position of vice president and truly stepped into the company's senior management.

And after Li De thought about it, he also gave her a crazy task.

He needs Zhao Yue to recruit no less than 500 professional players from e-sports schools before the launch of "Glory".

And every pro player needs to sign a contract with Crimson Moon for at least ten years.

In addition, the data analysis department has expanded from more than 100 people to 300 people, and at the same time invested 10 million RMB to accelerate the establishment of a data analysis center.

Under the orders of several heavyweights, Zhao Yue immediately saw Li De's determination.

"Glory" will be the place where the crimson moon will shine on its grandioses.

Li De didn't explain much about this, just ordered the other party to complete the task.

At the same time, he also asked Zhao Yue to pay extra attention to whether there were any managers who had established a large guild and wanted to change jobs, and if so, they could spend a lot of money to dig them up.

Zhao Yue naturally responded unconditionally.

From Li De's series of operations, this mature plump mature woman understood that her boss really wanted to make a big wave.

She is also happy to watch this club, which has spent ten years of youth, truly become one of the top ten clubs in China.

I worked harder for this, which made Li De a lot easier.

After coming to the tenth in the Dwarven Valley, in late September, it was only a few days away from stepping into the time point of October.

Li De met an old acquaintance.

Valen Brutehammer.

The dwarf he captured was free for most of his freedom by forging perfect armor for Corso and Castro, and lived comfortably in Daybreak during this time.

At least that's what Li De thinks.

And in fact, even Valen had to admit that Daybreak, a city ruled by vampires, was really the most comfortable city he had lived in for three hundred years

The city here is clean and tidy, and there is not the slightest mess of dirt.

There are no open defecation or even littering people on the streets, and the sewers never smell disgusting.

After nightfall, there are no underground forces extorting money in the streets, and you can still feel extremely safe in the city in the middle of the night, and you will not worry about evil life suddenly appearing in front of you.

Everyone here is kind and welcoming, and never discriminates against dwarves, and even Valen has mingled with a few of his neighbors because of the wine.

Basically, after work, I get together with a few human friends for a few drinks.

Valen fell in love with living in the city.

Here, he could feel that he was alive, really alive, not a dwarven master who was crazy and desperate for the tribe.

So when the town hall recruited someone who knew how to dig the Mithril veins, Valen volunteered to sign up.

This is also due to the fact that he likes to go to the square to chat in the shade...... In this process, it is inevitable that I will take many, many ideological education classes.

Every resident of Daybreak should contribute to our common home.

Regardless of race, age, gender, strength.

As long as you are a resident of Daybreak, you can contribute.

The phrase kept circling in his head, and Valen didn't know why he was the way he was, but he did find a blessing in the city

This is a completely different kind of belonging to the Brute Hammer tribe

In the Brute Hammer tribe is more of a responsibility, and he must work hard for the survival of all the tribes.

But in the City of Dawn, he didn't, he just needed to complete a certain amount of work, and then he could get a good salary, and he could enjoy good wine and food with his friends.

He had never been so relaxed.

"Good day, Lord of Cachar", Valen thumped his chest and saluted Li De with a respectful expression.

At this time, the dwarven forging event was a world away from the uncompromising dwarven image at the beginning.

Li De was keenly aware of Valen's changes and smiled slightly.

"Good day, Master Valen, the excavation of the Mithril vein will trouble you.

This will be the most important ore vein production in Daybreak in the future, and you are the only one in Daybreak who has the ability to design more efficient mining methods......."

Valen nodded, his expression with pride in being short, "No problem, Lord Cachar, how many miners do I have to use??" ”

Asking this question, Li De turned his head to look at the tent stationed in the valley.

Said lightly.

"Five Thousand Orcs ......"

Five thousand orcs??

Valen was shocked, and looked at Li De with some disbelief, "You enslaved five thousand orcs??" ”

That's a lot of money.

The entire dwarven tribe was only a little more than a thousand at its peak, and now it is five times the strength of the dwarf tribe if it is casually attacked.

Although he knew that Li De was very strong, every move of the other party could bring him a particularly strong shock.

The number of 5,000 beasts benefited Li De's plan beyond imagination during this time.

Because of the lack of food, seeing that the winter moon is coming again, many orc tribes have fallen into an indescribable despair

At this time, the powerful male lion came with the news that their tribe was ready to recruit a group of clansmen and could provide sufficient food for the winter, and even they had strong armor and warm winter clothes.....

This made the hearts of many orc tribes who were not strong and were only struggling on the survival level.

It's much better to be sheltered by a strong man than to survive in the barren wasteland of your own tribe.

Coupled with the statement of the lion tribe, it immediately attracted a large number of tribes to vote, with hundreds of people and a dozen or so people.

But in just ten years, more than five thousand orcs had gathered in the Dwarven Valley.

If it weren't for the last-minute effort to raise the bar for Craig, there would have only been more people now.

And Craig, a level 16 werewolf warrior, is also full of admiration for Li De's operation.

According to his idea, it must be conquered in the most direct way, but this efficiency is countless times worse than Li De's.

If you want to grow to 5,000 people, it is impossible to do it in two or three months.

Because the forcibly incorporated orcs can be managed at the beginning, but the number of people will be different later, and those orcs who are already dissatisfied or have resentment will become more and more difficult to manage.

There will even be rebellions, escapes, and so on.

But now that the other party has surrendered on his own, there is almost no need to worry about this phenomenon.

Plenty of food, sturdy armor, and warm winter clothes, this kind of super-high level of treatment directly tied the beast's heart.

Coupled with Craig's strength, all the orcs were convinced, and all this made this newly rebuilt tribe truly a tribe.

Although the rebuilt lion tribe is not as powerful as when Karp was located, it already has a certain amount of power.

"All but a thousand of these orcs will be under your command.

I have only one request, we must dig up the Mithril ore as fast as possible, the winter moon is just around the corner, and our army needs stronger armor. ”

Valen nodded with a serious expression.

"As you wish, Lord of Kachar, I will do my best!"

"I'll leave it up to you and Stanley, I'll leave five Cyclops for you to use, and I'll take the rest back to Daybreak.

In addition, any difficulties can be reported at any time.

Until the Winter Moon arrives, the Mithril Vein is the most important thing in Daybreak."

After that, Lid called Stanley and Craig to officially hand over the construction of the Dwarven Valley to Valen, and both of them were under Valen's command in terms of digging ore veins and rebuilding the city.

As Stanley, who is a blood line, and Craig, a Templar warrior, the loyalty of the two Rao has infiltrated into the soul and flows in the blood, and Li De's orders are naturally absolutely obedient.

After these trifles, Li De prepared to return to the City of Dawn.

At this time, the blacksmith and the mage tower joined forces for the first time and began to build running water out of rocks.
