Chapter 48: Stone Golems, Food Problems

The rocky body, already mossy and weedy, staggered to its feet.

With a height of more than three meters, combined with a pair of huge fists, it looks very intimidating.

When the stone golem saw them, it immediately roared angrily.

"Damned intruders, I'm going to take you..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was shot in the face by a dense stream of water arrows.

After an explosion, many craters suddenly appeared on the body of the rock.

The effect of the water arrow is outstanding!

"Damn bugs, I'm going to hammer you into a meatloaf!"

The injured stone golem was even more furious, and rushed towards it with heavy steps.

The sound of rumbling footsteps resounded throughout the quarry.

The ground seemed to shake.

But Ji Chen turned a blind eye and waved his arms.

The shallow fishman threw his trident, piercing the air and striking the golem in a perfect arc.

Knock –

A piercing crash sounded.

The seemingly sturdy rock body was actually cut into several gaps under the sharp halberd tip.

The stone golem was shocked.

They devoured countless stones to make this solid rock body.

Damaged in the hands of these fish-men today?

But it's not over yet.

Entering the battle mode, the Naga warrior, whose manic traits were stimulated, squirmed wildly and mightily with a powerful snake tail charge, bringing up an air flow to roll up an ear of grass.

Rushing in front of the stone golem, he slashed down with his blades crossed.

Kela –

The bone blade collided with the rock fist, and both sides shook their bodies and took a few steps back.

Gaze.

The stone golem's rock fist cracked widely, but the Naga warrior's bone blade was unscathed, reflecting a metallic sheen in the sunlight.

Judgment from above.

The strengthened Naga warriors are already a cut above the stone golems in terms of strength and attack power.

In the distance, several stone golems lifted rocks one by one, threw them with both hands, and threw them over.

The Naga warrior's eyes flashed red, exuding a terrifying aura.

A terrifying low roar came from his mouth, and the strong arms bulged out, and the bone blades slashed down.

The rocks were directly crushed.

The best offense is defense.

They are both ruthless warriors who have the courage to challenge no matter who their enemies are.

There is cruelty and tyranny in his eyes, and only killing can vent the mania in his heart.

Charging again, like chariots, rushed into the stone golems.

A pair of bone blades opened and closed, bringing a burst of sharpness everywhere they went.

Boom –

Another round of water arrows exploded, and the stone golem, which was already close to collapse, was instantly torn apart, and the rock body was cracked into rubble all over the ground.

A stone golem has either been slashed by a Naga warrior or had its head blown off by a sea elf's arrow.

Body parts flew everywhere, and the scene was extremely cruel.

The fighting soon ceased.

Under the suppression of absolute rank and quantity, they failed to lift too many storms.

The stone golems that looked very powerful before have now turned into pieces of rubble on the ground, a mess in the ground.

"Ding~ You have a victory full of glory... You've gained 1,200 XP..."

Ji Chen, who had watched the entire battle, nodded with satisfaction.

The combat power of the upgraded Naga warriors and shallow sea fishmen is very amazing, and they beat the stone golems almost all the way.

This is also a victory won by Alice without a move, relying only on the troops.

They play to their strengths.

Fighting with normal classes is the norm for players.

People like Ji Chen, who just started the game, got a powerful battle hero like Alice, who are outliers and minority.

Walk into the quarry and take it over.

With this one, he now has a total of four quarries.

Three are small and one is medium-sized.

Every week, it can bring him tens of thousands of units of stone resources.

It's a pity that there aren't any players nearby, otherwise he could sell them some stone in exchange for other resources.

After testing the combat power of the Naga warriors and the shallow sea fishmen, I saw how powerful they were.

Ji Chen was in a good mood, and Shi Shiran took them back to the territory.

Willus greeted him and said respectfully.

"Your Excellency, your lordship, are back."

He bowed his head slightly, "How's the construction site of the new house?" ”

"The enthusiasm of the people is very high, and the construction is progressing quickly, and it is estimated that the initial construction will be completed in one day, but the capacity is not enough to accommodate the new indigenous tribes."

The number of new houses is only 10, and each can accommodate up to 30 people, and only 300 people can live at full capacity.

The indigenous tribes plus the original people are as many as 472 people, even those simple dwellings cannot be lived.

But about this question, he has already thought about it.

"Don't worry too much about this, the indigenous tribes don't all come at once, they move in batches, and I will continue to build more houses in the future."

"That's great." Willus nodded, but the worry on his face didn't diminish much.

"In addition to this, the food consumption rate in the territory is much faster now, and the more than 6,000 units of food stored in the warehouse now may not be able to last too long."

Ji Chen groaned, this is indeed a problem.

There were 410 indigenous tribes, 640 kobolds, 18 cave miners, 20 female slaves, and 1,130 original people.

Coupled with the consumption of shallow sea fish, Naga warriors, and elite pirates.

Even if each person only eats 2 units of food per day, they have to consume more than 2,000 units of food every day

More than 6,000 units can only withstand about 3 days.

I saw the benefits of a lot of labor joining in before, but I almost forgot about the problem of food consumption.

If there is a shortage of food, the people's morale will be frantically lowered.

It seems that the next two days will have to focus a little bit on finding food.

However, Ji Chen didn't worry too much.

Now that some of the indigenous people are already looking for suitable sites for large-scale cultivation of seawater rice on the island, news should be available soon.

There is also a lot of prey on the island, especially in the valley, where there are a lot of animals.

Each one is fat and strong, and you can easily get a lot of meat by catching dozens of them.

The island is surrounded by the sea, and fish are abundant, so it is also a good way to get food for fish-people to catch fish in the sea.

If not, wouldn't those kobolds also be a good source of protein...

But he won't do it unless he is forced to do so.

"I'll increase the intensity of hunting these days, you don't have to worry."

Willus was relieved.

Since you said don't worry, there must be no problem.

This is what the lord has always said and done, and it gives them a strong sense of security and trust.

Waving his hand to let Willus continue to supervise the work of the people, Ji Chen rested a little, and then went out with his troops.

Hunt around the island for food.

The beasts and monsters that had fled elsewhere before, they discovered something today in despair.

The terrifying Homo erectus came with an even more powerful army.

This time, they have nowhere to run.

I had withdrawn from the jungle by the sea five days earlier, and three days earlier from the jungle in the south, thinking that I would be able to gain peace overnight.

Looking around today, the greedy and tyrannical Homo erectus has once again arrived with an army.

But the island is so big, where can they flee now?

In various parts of the island, their mournful and unwilling wails rang out.

It seems to be celebrating the birth of the island's new king.

Half a day later.

Ji Chen looked at the corpses of more than twenty jungle wolves in front of him, looked at today's harvest, and stopped hunting.

All kinds of large and small prey, adding up to five or six thousand units of food, barely alleviated the food problem in the territory.

Today's harvest is enough.

He looked up at the sky.

The sun has sunk below the horizon, and a bright moon is rising.

The silvery moonlight shone through the gaps in the branches and leaves and shone on the ground.

The chirping of insects sounded all around, and it was very loud in the silence of the jungle.

It's time to go back, too.

Beckoning the troops to put the prey on their backs, and the group returned with a full load.
