Chapter 18: Black Iron One-Star! Undead Bone General!

I won't mention the energy; with the doubling, he obtained 1600 Energy Points.

If this were any other ordinary lord, who knows how many days it would take to earn so much energy.

The number of Magic Crystals was also substantial: 200 Ordinary Realm Magic Crystals and 2 Black Iron Realm ones.

According to the current market price, one Ordinary Realm Magic Crystal is worth 20 Energy Points, which is equivalent to a huge sum of 4000 Energy Points.

However, Qin Luo had no intention of selling the Magic Crystals for the time being.

Magic Crystals were clearly an extremely important resource, needed for both upgrading the territory and upgrading the barracks.

2 Ogre Hearts!

They contained massive dark energy; consuming them could transform one into the Ogre race!

"..."

Qin Luo was doing just fine as a human and did not want to become an Ogre!

Moreover, the ugly appearance of Ogres was simply too disgusting.

If their strength were extremely formidable, Qin Luo might hesitate, but the strength of an Ogre was just so-so, at most equivalent to an Elite-tier unit. There was even less reason to give up his human identity for this bit of power.

Besides, Ogres belonged to the Dark Race; who knew if there would be any side effects!

As for his own Undead units, they didn't need them either; perhaps he could consider selling them.

Finally, there were two Black Iron Grade Treasure Chests left!

Qin Luo rubbed his hands and opened the first chest.

Ogre Lair Blueprint!

After use, an Ogre Lair will appear, immediately refreshing 100 Ogres, and refreshing 100 Ogres every twenty-four hours. Note: Ogres are hostile creatures, cannot be tamed, and will actively attack nearby creatures. When the number of Ogres accumulates to a certain level, an Ogre Leader will be born. Use requires no resources!

"Eh, this is actually quite interesting!"

Qin Luo touched his chin; it was equivalent to having an extra place to grind monsters and level up.

The difference was that these Ogres were highly aggressive and hostile; if not controlled well, they would instead endanger the safety of the lord and the territory.

But Qin Luo also discovered a loophole.

That was the refresh time was once every twenty-four hours.

This meant that as long as they refreshed, he could eliminate them to avoid them becoming a hidden danger, and he could earn a huge wave of Energy Points every day!

You must know, killing Ogres drops a large amount of energy and Magic Crystals!

And it was currently nighttime; affected by the Tidal Rules, he could also enjoy double rewards!

As for letting the Ogres accumulate in number to cultivate a Black Iron Realm Ogre Leader, Qin Luo felt it was completely unnecessary; one, it was uncontrollable, and two, the risk was too high.

If he didn't need it one day, destroying it should have a chance to drop a Barracks Heart.

"After wiping out this group of Black Magic Pigs, I'll find a place to build the Ogre Lair!"

"It seems there is no restriction on where this lair can be built; it can be inside or outside the territory, right?"

Qin Luo put away the blueprint and looked at the last treasure chest.

【Equipment: Ghost Shield】

【Grade: Black Iron Grade】

【Attributes: Physique +6, Spirit +4】

【Skill: Summon Ghost (After use, summons a group of Ogre souls to guard oneself, resisting a certain amount of damage, lasting for one minute, cooldown three hours)】

【Description: A shield crafted from Ogre bones and souls. The dark green shield surface is painted with a terrifying ghost face pattern, making one shudder.】

A Black Iron Grade defensive piece of equipment!

Its attributes were much stronger than the previously obtained Ordinary Grade Dire Wolf Armor.

After Qin Luo finished checking the loot, the battle between the Undead and the Black Magic Pigs was also nearing its end.

Hundreds of Black Magic Pigs were all slain.

Qin Luo therefore also harvested 600 Energy Points and 100 Magic Crystals!

It could be seen that the drop rewards of the Black Magic Pigs were far lower than those of the Ogres, and among the several hundred Black Magic Pigs, there wasn't even a single Black Iron Realm leader, which made Qin Luo a bit disappointed.

However, this group of Black Magic Pigs contributed three hundred corpses, which was quite good.

Added to the Ogres, Qin Luo had another five hundred-plus monster corpses.

"Lord, I have not failed your mission. Our army has completely wiped out all the Black Magic Pigs and searched the area within a hundred meters of the territory, finding no suspicious threatening creatures!"

A murderous Undead Skeleton Warrior reported to Qin Luo.

"Not bad, keep up the good work!"

Qin Luo praised and bestowed upon it the name 'Wang Si'.

"Subordinate has a presumptuous request, please grant it, Lord!"

Wang Si knelt on one knee and said.

"You want the corpse of that Ogre Leader?"

Qin Luo had long since seen through the other party's thoughts.

"Yes, Lord!"

Wang Si said.

"No problem, it's yours!"

Qin Luo said generously.

Recruiting Undead Skeleton Soldiers only required the corpses of Ordinary Realm monsters.

If he used the corpses of Black Iron Realm monsters, the recruited Undead Skeleton Soldiers would still be Ordinary One-Star.

That would be too wasteful!

Moreover, Qin Luo saw that Wang Si's aura was thick, with faint signs of breaking through to the Black Iron Realm.

It was better to help it achieve its wish.

Besides, the Ogre Leader was killed by the Undead fighting bravely; it was originally the Undead's loot!

Perhaps, after Wang Si underwent a rebirth, it would be able to successfully break through to the Black Iron Realm and become the first Black Iron Realm unit under his command.

After obtaining Qin Luo's permission, Wang Si walked straight toward the tall and fierce Ogre Leader. Its claw joints protruded like magic claws, reaching into the Ogre Leader's corpse, and it dissected a complete skeleton from the pile of rotten flesh and blood.

Wang Si did not decompose the Ogre Leader's skeleton but instead pressed the entire skeleton tightly against its own bones.

Qin Luo saw the Ogre Leader's skeleton melting into Wang Si's body section by section like liquid.

Wang Si's bones constantly grew, becoming taller, thicker, and harder... Its body grew to a height of two and a half meters, and a white bone shield grew on its other hand.

But it didn't end there; an exoskeleton grew on its body, like a suit of armor, making it look like a battle-hardened general.

【Name: Undead Bone General (Wang Si)】

【Race: Undead Race】

【Rank: Black Iron One-Star】

【Strength: 35】

【Physique: 40】

【Agility: 20】

【Spirit: 15】

【Skills: Undead Body, Bone Claw Tear, Bone Spear Stab, Bone Shield, Death Offering】

【Specialty: Dismemberment Level 3, Splicing Level 3】

【Talent: Infinite Growth, Devour Evolution】

【Bond: Undead Legion】

"I originally thought the first to break through to the Black Iron Realm would be Wang Yi, but I didn't expect Wang Si to come from behind!"

"A Black Iron One-Star Undead Bone General is truly formidable!"

"The Strength attribute alone is as high as 35 points, and its Physique is even more astonishing, 5 points higher than its Strength!"

"In addition, two powerful skills have been added!"

Qin Luo looked at Wang Si's attribute panel.
