Chapter 54: The Kobold Lord's Preparation and Strategy!

~7 min read 1,260 words

Less than three miles southwest of Qin Luo's territory, there is a territory.

There are nearly two hundred Kobolds in the territory.

"Phew, finally done!"

Jian Shengyuan couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Last night, he not only suffered an attack from dark monsters but also encountered an Undead Legion, causing heavy losses to the Kobold troops under his command, with the number falling below one hundred.

Fortunately, he recruited one hundred Kobolds today.

Moreover, Jian Shengyuan collected some methods to deal with the Undead Legion by posting a reward on the forum.

According to the plans provided by other lords, Jian Shengyuan integrated several plans he felt were effective and planned to use them together.

As for the 500 units mentioned in the post as a reward, he never intended to fulfill it from the beginning; this was just a gimmick to let lords provide him with solutions.

After all, this is just a unilateral promise, and even if he doesn't fulfill the promise, no one can do anything to him.

"Now I'm really bankrupt!"

"The 500 units of Red Iron I worked so hard to collect are all used up!"

"I must make you pay the price!"

Jian Shengyuan looked coldly outside the territory, where the figures of the Undead could be vaguely seen.

For this day, Jian Shengyuan didn't do anything else, but exchanged Red Iron for the resources he needed through the trading market.

One was all the resources for the territory to promote from Ordinary One-Star to Ordinary Two-Star, which could be upgraded at any time, and the reason for doing so was to use the Novice Protection Shield to cause heavy damage to the Undead around the territory.

The second was to buy one hundred pieces of equipment, and after wearing them on the Kobold troops, their combat power increased by a notch.

Finally, Jian Shengyuan also spent a great price to buy a 'Magic Bomb', which can cause damage to enemies within a range of fifteen meters after use and can threaten the lives of Black Iron Realm creatures.

This is all the preparation Jian Shengyuan made.

At this time, everything was ready.

"You guys go out, lure the Undead outside over!"

Jian Shengyuan said to a few Kobolds.

Those Kobolds heard the Lord's order, although they were terrified, they still didn't dare to disobey the Lord's order, moving their feet and leaving the range of the white protection shield.

Because there are many Undead patrolling around the territory.

From last night to now, whenever they stepped out of the territory range, they would definitely be attacked by the Undead.

This means that once they leave the protection shield range, they could be killed by the Undead at any time.

Ha!

A few Kobolds shouted loudly, trying to attract the attention of the Undead in the distance.

If it were normal circumstances, the Undead would probably have killed them long ago.

However, an accident happened.

No matter how the Kobolds shouted or what actions they made, the Undead still stood in place, unmoved.

"What's going on, why didn't that Undead come over?"

Jian Shengyuan was puzzled, "Is it because the number of Kobolds is too small, or is it because I tricked them too many times before, so these Undead are no longer fooled!"

More than thirty meters away from the territory, the Undead Bone General Wang Ba and the Undead Lich beside him were looking at the few Kobolds jumping up and down and shouting, showing a mocking expression.

"The Lord is truly wise!"

"Those Kobolds are trying to seduce us to approach their territory!"

Wang Ba said. "We won't be fooled!"

Because they received Qin Luo's reminder, the Undead kept a safe distance from the territory.

Even if Jian Shengyuan's territory upgrades and the protection shield expands, it won't threaten them.

Unless Jian Shengyuan can upgrade the territory from Ordinary One-Star to Ordinary Three-Star in one breath, expanding to a range of sixty meters, it is possible to use the protection shield to repel the Undead.

"We just need to surround this territory!"

"As long as we don't take the bait, no matter what tricks they play, it's useless!"

"Unless that Lord is willing to act as bait himself!"

The Undead Lich Wang Shiwu standing next to Wang Ba said.

Although Qin Luo recruited a large number of Undead Liches and Undead Skeleton Soldiers from last night to today.

But this Undead Legion has been outside and has not replenished troops, still maintaining the configuration of one Undead Bone General, two Undead Liches, and one thousand skeleton soldiers.

"Yes, it depends on whether he has the courage!"

Wang Ba gripped the bone spear in his hand, staring fixedly at the direction of the Kobolds.

And just as they were talking, another group of Kobolds walked out of the territory, their numbers increasing, already exceeding one hundred.

Especially the Kobolds that appeared later, all holding weapons, various knives, swords, sticks, and clubs, posing a posture ready for battle.

"Actually didn't take the bait?"

Jian Shengyuan frowned.

If it were before, once the Undead discovered that Kobolds had left the protection shield range, they would definitely charge over crazily like seeing prey.

But now, why didn't they come over!

Could it be...

Jian Shengyuan couldn't help but recall that among the lords who mentioned in his help-seeking post, some mentioned that these Undead were not wild, but were commanded by a Lord behind them.

It's just that Jian Shengyuan didn't quite believe it; after all, this is only the third day, how could he recruit so many Undead!

You must know that the recruitment limit of ordinary barracks is the largest, and he only recruited three hundred Kobolds in three days.

And the Undead outside, if not one thousand, there must be eight hundred!

Only if the Undead are backed by a Lord, so they knew the strategy Jian Shengyuan might use, so they were not fooled at all.

After all, the popularity of the help-seeking post Jian Shengyuan posted is not low, so it's not surprising that it was seen by the 'Undead Lord'.

"Looks like I can only do this!"

Jian Shengyuan clenched his fists, stepped forward, and actually stepped out of the protection shield.

"Is the one opposite also a Lord?"

"We are all from the same root, why must we kill each other?"

"Let's develop together, okay? I know a place where Red Iron can be mined, we can mine it together!"

"Of course, if we can cooperate, it's best. If not..."

"I am willing to submit to you, be your little brother, how about it? My troops are for you to command, and all the harvested resources are handed over, just ask you to spare my life!"

Jian Shengyuan shouted, "What does your Excellency think? Do you accept my surrender? Let's be honest with each other, how about it?"

His words clearly meant he wanted to soften his stance.

This is also a way to survive collected from the forum.

It's just that whether Jian Shengyuan's surrender is true or false, it's unknown!

But it feels more like attracting the 'Undead Lord' to show up.

"Are you really willing to surrender?"

Not long after, a voice without any emotion came from afar.

Jian Shengyuan showed joy and looked in the direction of the voice.

However, to his disappointment, the visitor was not a human like him.

But an Undead Bone General who was a head taller than ordinary Undead.
