Chapter 105: The Spoils of Annihilating a Territory!

The tunnel was located halfway up a small hill.

Li Yue waited for about half an hour.

Just as he thought the rat-men who had fled back might have been wiped out by the Great Goblins,

a rat-man mage holding a staff suddenly rushed out in panic and fear.

Then seven more rat-man mages burst out.

These seven rat-man mages were very lucky.

Because they were mages,

the rat-man lord had placed them at the rear.

This also made it easier for them to escape.

But they had barely emerged

when, before they could even see their surroundings, a volley of pale green arrows rained down from the sky!

Even though all eight mages were covered by pale yellow magical shields,

those twenty arrows still killed them all, not a single one left!

All twenty arrows were Penetrating Arrows.

They had a 20% chance to break shields.

Plus, they were only Iron★ Tier, no stronger than the Moon Elf archers.

So even without triggering the shield-breaking effect, several arrows forcibly shattered their magical shields and killed them outright.

Then—

scattered rat-man warriors rushed out.

They too were easily shot dead.

After waiting a moment longer,

several Great Goblins rushed out. Seeing the Wyverns overhead, they first froze in surprise, then respectfully bowed:

"My Lord!"

"How many rat-men are still fleeing?"

Li Yue asked in a deep voice.

"Not many left! Probably no more than twenty!"

The Great Goblin thought for a moment and replied respectfully.

"Withdraw to the territory. No need to pursue further."

Li Yue ordered.

Chasing them underground was simply too unsafe.

If a cave-in occurred, it would cause heavy casualties.

Risking such danger just to hunt down these irrelevant rat-man warriors was not worth the cost.

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, the Great Goblin returned to the tunnel to convey the command.

"Let's go back."

Li Yue glanced toward the south.

Originally, looking south from Lord Chenxi's territory, only four territory light pillars were visible.

But looking south from here, the number didn't decrease; instead, it increased, and five territory light pillars could be seen.

According to research by some lords in the World Channel,

anyone can only see territory light pillars within a hundred li radius.

"I wonder if there are any natives in this War of the Ten Thousand Races..."

he murmured to himself.

Riding the Wyvern, he headed back toward Lord Chenxi's territory.

"2,571 energy points!"

Back in the territory, standing beside the altar, Li Yue wore a satisfied expression.

Previously, he had only 11 energy points left.

Broke as a church mouse.

Destroying one territory instantly made him wealthy again.

"Destroying the rat-man territory must have given me 2,000 energy..."

"The remaining 560 energy points came from killing the rat-men..."

he guessed in his mind.

But it didn't really matter.

When you have money, you naturally have to spend it.

Otherwise, keeping it on you is just a pile of numbers with no use.

The territory was already somewhat crowded.

The top priority was to push the Thorn Walls outward.

An Iron★★★ territory has a radius of five hundred meters.

And this would also grant quite a few Talent Points, so it was definitely not a loss.

"A radius of five hundred meters means a circumference of 3,140 meters."

"The blue thorn bushes are 1.5 meters tall per plant."

"For the Liuxiasi Sect position, there are already 405 blue thorn bushes."

"Another full 1,680 plants are still needed."

However, after calculating briefly, he felt a headache coming on.

One blue thorn bush requires 2 points of energy.

1,680 plants mean 3,360 points of energy.

The energy he currently has on hand is simply not enough.

"It seems I must sell both the Ratman Camp blueprint and the Ratman Warrior Camp blueprint."

"In any case, I never intended to use these two building blueprints."

He pondered.

Ratmen are experts at digging tunnels.

But he already has a Grey Dwarf Camp; Grey Dwarves are also experts at excavation.

It's just that he had not summoned Grey Dwarves in large numbers before.

So the Ratmen are of little use to him.

"And the Residential Building blueprint should be sold as well."

He whispered to himself.

Acting on the thought, he immediately opened the trading interface.

He first searched for the prices of ordinary ★ Camp blueprints; most were between 300 and 500 energy.

This kind of camp is the weakest troop camp.

It makes sense that they cannot fetch a high price.

Then—

He checked the ordinary ★★★ Camp blueprints.

The result was that none were found.

This means no one is selling them, or they have all been bought.

"Ordinary ★★★ camps seem to be very popular."

A faint smile appeared on his face.
