Chapter 1383: Accumulating Strength for a Powerful Release (2)

Opening the door to the temporary prison, the howling grew clearer as it reached his ears.

He walked inside.

Sure enough, he saw Zhuang Ya smiling excitedly as she roasted an orc over a fire.

The orc howled loudly: "I give in! I give in! Let me go till the land, I'll work hard, I swear!"

"Very good. Someone will be watching you. If you don't work hard, you'll be sent back here to further raise your awareness."

"I understand, I really understand now."

"Mm, give him some medicine and take him out to work."

"Yes!"

A female soldier went over and led the orc away.

"Oh? My lord, why are you here? Are you here to inspect the work?"

"No, I came specifically to find you. Come with me somewhere."

"Hehe, alright." Zhuang Ya smiled beautifully: "You all continue."

"Yes!"

The female soldier took over Zhuang Ya's work.

Zhao Chi activated his authority and clicked to teleport.

In an instant, the two of them arrived at Yunmeng Village.

The two of them appeared at the mountaintop.

The view was extremely expansive.

Green grass was everywhere, a scene full of life.

Looking far into the distance, one could see the great river below the mountain.

It was very wide, its surface shimmering with ripples.

It encircled the entire territory.

But right now he couldn't see how fast the river flowed; he'd have to go down to find out.

Looking south, there was a large lake, only a few dozen meters from the great river.

He probably wouldn't even need to dig it himself; after a few floods, the river would naturally connect them.

Around the area there were also 4 relatively short mountain peaks.

In the future, some defensive towers could be built on them, with a very wide defensive range.

Other places had nothing special.

Standing here, he could directly see a magical beast camp to the southwest.

Two tall magical beasts were resting in the camp.

This mountainous terrain really did have its advantages; the entire territory could be taken in at a glance.

However, during construction, the mountain slope would need to be leveled first before laying foundations.

It would take more work hours to build than on flat ground.

Moreover, climbing the mountain would also be very tiring.

Especially when transporting supplies.

But it didn't matter; all the villagers recovered their stamina quickly, so being a bit tired wasn't a big deal.

"My lord, what are those two?"

Zhuang Ya squinted her eyes, staring at the magical beasts below the mountain.

Her eyelashes were quite long.

Zhao Chi said: "Two trolls. Let's go down the mountain to take a look, and take the chance to eliminate them."

"No problem!"

Both trolls were over 2 meters tall.

Back when Lu Yi had just established the territory, she must have encountered this kind.

The magical beasts in the territory had all been weakened, so Zhuang Ya easily burned them into charcoal-grilled trolls.

【You have eliminated the troll camp. Territory range can be expanded by 100 square meters. Please select territory】

He chose to add it to Chaoge Village.

He obtained a small amount of resources, as well as a wooden treasure chest.

Inside the chest were 2 Quick-Work Talismans, not bad for a wooden chest.

These two trolls were tall and thin, but they could still be decomposed into quite a few things.

He'd have Yang Lu decompose them later.

Zhuang Ya said: "My lord, the river in this territory is really wide, just like a great river."

Zhao Chi said: "This great river is the merger of multiple rivers. Calling it a great river is still a bit of a stretch, but it really is close."

This river was formed by the merger of 10 rivers, its width exceeding 300 meters, with some sections even over 500 meters.

The river surged on, certainly very deep.

The entire territory lost a fair amount of area to this river.

But it didn't matter; water territory was still territory.

However, this 300-500 meters wasn't actually that big.

After all, when he first came up he only had 100 configuration points; this was already the limit.

After obtaining more territory configuration points later, he could slowly supplement and expand.

That large lake formed by the merger of 60 lakes was actually only about 60,000 square meters.

About the area of nine football fields, or 140 basketball courts.

This lake isn't all that big either, so it'll need to be continuously expanded later on.

But for now, it's already enough.

"Let's go, Zhuang Ya, we're heading back."

"Okay, I see there are quite a few big fish in this lake — can we eat them?"

"Haha, you want to eat fish?"

"Mm, is that okay?"

"Of course, no problem."

The big fish in Penglai Town's lake have already been eaten clean, leaving only a good number of fry, so it's still in the fish-raising stage.

But this great lake at Cloud Dream Village is all newly built, with a large stock of initial big fish inside.

Zhao Chi saw it too — group after group of them.

Zhuang Ya had already started taking off her clothes.

"Are you going to catch fish directly? You don't have any tools."

"Hehe, just watch me."

"Okay, isn't the water cold? It's not summer now. This isn't the Carefree Spring either."

"Aiya, that's nothing."

Zhuang Ya stripped bare.

Zhao Chi watched her with great interest.

Zhao Chi wasn't looking at her body — after all, he could see it clearly enough every day.

He wanted to see how Zhuang Ya would catch the fish.

He only saw Zhuang Ya plunge into the water with a splash, swimming nimbly.

Her skin was very fair; standing on the bank, Zhao Chi could clearly see a graceful white figure beneath the water.

Zhuang Ya swam lightly to the rear of the fish school.

Suddenly, a burst of bubbles rose and spread from the water.

Immediately after, two fish floated up.

The next moment, a long-haired beauty burst out of the water.
