Chapter 3346

The Border Region seems peaceful, but this is just the calm before the storm. Having not been stationed here for too long, the alienated beasts are naturally too lazy to come here. When they discover the Doomsday Fortress, the contradiction will be completely intensified.

This is also what Su Xiao wants to see. With these more than 10,000 Pig-headed Men who don't know what fighting is, going to shake the Kin is looking for death.

Looking at the alienated beast camp, although there are several overlord-level creatures as leaders, they are not united internally. There are too many species. For example, the Viper Hunting Wolf alienated from hyenas is a natural mortal enemy of the Sword-toothed Lion alienated from lions.

The situation in the alienated beast camp is very suitable to be the first opponent. Handling the two Kin guard points nearby to avoid the Kin discovering that their side is developing here will be no problem.

Wanting to hide it for more than a month is wishful thinking. Half a month is already very difficult. Therefore, from entering the Border Region, one must develop against time.

Before the morning sun climbed to the horizon, the Pig-headed Men were awakened by the sound of the loudspeaker and gathered in a large open space in front of the fortress.

Looking over, more than 10,000 Pig-headed Men lined up in four teams, a very spectacular scene. As early as in Free City, Su Xiao entrusted that housing merchant to customize tens of thousands of pendants resembling soldier tags, one side blank, letting the Pig-headed Men carve their names on it themselves, and the other side divided into two colors, blue and red.

The pendant tags with blue backs represent work-type Pig-headed Men, while red represents warrior-type.

This is more convenient for command. The more than 10,000 Pig-headed Men now, those with the potential to evolve into Wild Boar Men, were assigned as warriors, and the rest were miners. The 500 female Pig-headed Men were responsible for daily cleaning, meals, washing, etc.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, and Baja, as Su Xiao's followers, could all view the information of their own Pig-headed Men. Using whether there is the ability to transform into a Wild Boar Man as a standard, they started issuing name tags.

There will be a rule in the future: during wartime, one must wear a name tag 24 hours a day. Even when doing "hey hey hey," one must wear it. Violators will be beheaded.

The rules of the Doomsday Fortress are very few, and there are no guards or foremen. The only few rules, once violated, mean losing one's life.

Su Xiao also participated in the issuance of name tags. He sat behind a wooden table with a large wooden box on the left and right, filled with two-colored name tags. Opposite the table was a long line of Pig-headed Men.

These Pig-headed Men each held a mining pick. Other weapons couldn't be obtained, so they could only use the all-metal mining picks that were easiest to get as weapons.

View Pig-headed Man information → choose name tag → put name tag on the table → Pig-headed Man takes it away. The whole process took only a few seconds, but there were too many Pig-headed Men, and it took a whole morning to finish issuing them.

According to the statistics of the issued name tags, Su Xiao obtained the following information:

Pig-headed Man warriors: 8,736 (reserve).

Pig-headed Man leaders: 6 (Hausman, Steel Tooth, etc.).

Pig-headed Man miners: 2,178.

Female Pig-headed Men: 500.

With the mining capacity of the Doomsday Fortress, 2,178 Pig-headed Man miners are already overstaffed. After promoting the Doomsday Fortress to T4 level, this problem will not exist.

The mining capacity of a T5-level fortress, even if overloaded, is 1,000 Pig-headed Men mining underground at the same time. In that case, it is a 12-hour work system. If it continues to be overstaffed in terms of mining in the future, shorten the working hours again.

Su Xiao came to the general control room on the top cabin of the fortress and leaned on the soft sofa. He took out the fortress core. The way to promote the fortress is quite simple and crude: drip 【Cataclysm Solution Type V】 into the fortress core, place it in active ore, and wait.

10 hours later, the fortress's volume began to "grow," which means the promotion was successful. If not, it means failure.

As long as it is not particularly unlucky, the fortress dies during the transformation, even if it fails once, afterward, by obtaining 【Cataclysm Solution Type V】, one can continue to try, but it will consume a lot of active ore.

According to Caesar's inquiry, the success rate of a T5-level fortress transforming to T4 level is over 96%, belonging to the particularly stable kind.

In Su Xiao's view, not 100% is not stable. More importantly, his preliminary observation is that this small bottle of 【Cataclysm Solution Type V】, no matter how you look at it, looks like a tampered version of some alchemy potion, changed in a way that is neither fish nor fowl.

Su Xiao decided to study the remaining 【Cataclysm Solution Type V】 when he had leisure time. He picked up the fortress core, stuck 【Cataclysm Solution Type V】 behind the syringe, and dripped the solution inside onto the fortress core drop by drop.

After dripping four-fifths, gray-black flesh buds grew on the fortress core. Seeing this, Su Xiao pushed open the secret room door and placed the fortress core on a large pile of active ore.

The gray-black flesh buds on the fortress core first coiled onto the active ore, and then, like fast-growing tree roots, climbed onto the surrounding ceiling and walls, connecting with the fortress.

After doing this, Su Xiao checked the fortress information, his gaze stopping on the daily output of active ore, which was about 1,000 kilograms per day.

It can be seen that the Pig-headed Man laborers hadn't received such good treatment. They had superior food and didn't have to sleep in sleeping slots. Even if it was a collective dormitory, it was much more comfortable than being squeezed in a sleeping slot. It was not a level of sleep experience.

The better the treatment, the more the Pig-headed Man laborers didn't want to lose all this. What would happen if they were lazy in the past? The answer is, the first time they were whipped, the second time their ears were cut, and the third time they were sold directly.

Now these Pig-headed Man laborers were very worried about being sold because of laziness, thus being forced to leave the Doomsday Fortress, so they worked extra hard, but they didn't quite understand what a 12-hour work system and 12-hour free rest meant.

1,000 kilograms of income per day is far from enough. Even if they occasionally dig up good things, such as life-characteristic gems or other strange objects, this development speed is not fast enough.

Su Xiao still needs other ways to make money. He had already thought of this way, which is the fur, sharp claws, teeth, etc., of alienated beasts.

If encountering tiger-type alienated beasts, tiger penises are particularly valuable in this world. This thing is produced by extraordinary tiger types, and the effect is very strong. It is said that after boiling this thing in boiling water for a while to disinfect and sterilize, eating it directly can have an "immediate" effect, and it is naturally without side effects, being sought after by upper-class people.

Hunting in the territory of alienated beasts is also very profitable. This is one of the main incomes of hunters on the continent, or rather, this is also the reason why they are called hunters.

Su Xiao prepared to let 8,736 Pig-headed Man reserve warriors take metal mining picks and enter the territory of alienated beasts to hunt. Marching 200 meters to the east, they entered the territory of alienated beasts. This, while facilitating hunting, also bears risks.

Su Xiao, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, and Baja guarded the house. Without knowing it, they would think that the entrance to the fortress was only the main door. When the Pig-headed Man main force went hunting, if alienated beasts attacked, Su Xiao stood at the main door, which was one man guarding the pass, ten thousand men unable to open.

Su Xiao stood on the gentle slope in front of the main door, looking at the reserve Pig-headed Man warriors who had lined up and were nervous. They were going to hunt, and also to "die," or rather, to exercise combat skills between life and death. In the dangerous territory of alienated beasts, all their potential would be stimulated, or, die.

The benefit of hunting alienated beasts is not only fur, teeth, and other goods that can be sold. With the physique of Pig-headed Men, carrying complete prey back after a long journey is no problem at all.

Excluding fur, teeth, and other goods, the remaining alienated beast meat can be cooked and fed to the Pig-headed Men. For them who only have strong physiques, this is a natural tonic. Perhaps after eating it, there is a higher probability of evolving from Pig-headed Man to Wild Boar Man.

The Pig-headed Man main force was about to set off. Dorothy, chewing gum, stood behind Su Xiao.

"Dorothy."

"Ah?"

Dorothy tilted her head and looked at Su Xiao.

"Give you a task."

"Hmm, hmm."

Dorothy had just obtained power and was looking for a place to exert it, already impatient.

"This time going out to hunt, you are responsible for supervising whether anyone escapes. Once discovered, kill on the spot."

"Understand!"

Dorothy, who was smiling, became serious. That look clearly meant that she would definitely handle this matter. Suddenly having the power of life and death, she was a bit floating. This is human nature.

"I think highly of you."

Su Xiao patted Dorothy on the shoulder. Hearing this, Dorothy raised her chin slightly, blowing bubbles with gum, and walked toward the Pig-headed Man main force.

The smile on Su Xiao's face faded. He signaled Amu to get closer, and Amu immediately leaned over to listen quietly.

"If Dorothy dies, you are responsible for taking back Boiling Red. Be cautious on the way. If the matter cannot be done, you withdraw alone."

"Moo."

Amu nodded in agreement and walked toward the Pig-headed Man main force. Dorothy in front of it still had a relaxed expression, and one could faintly hear her humming a song.

Dorothy seemed to have forgotten that she had just obtained power not long ago. How could such an important task as supervising the battle be handed to her? It was just that she didn't look very smart. Calling it supervising the battle was actually letting her go to the alien beast battlefield to hone her strength and temperament happily. When the melee broke out, there would be time for her to cry.

Three hours later, 12 kilometers to the east of the base camp fortress.

Shouts, roars, and screams were mixed together. In the melee field, the smell of blood was thick, and the intestines on the ground were still steaming. A dying Pig-headed Man held his bleeding throat with both hands.

Not far away, Steel Tooth grabbed a Viper Hunting Wolf with one hand and bit the head of this alienated beast. The metal flat teeth in Steel Tooth's mouth, with blood, tore off the ears and a large piece of fur of the Viper Hunting Wolf, and even bit tooth marks on the skull.

Looking down from above, the ground was full of corpses of Pig-headed Men and Viper Hunting Wolves. Pig-headed Men didn't know how to fight, but they were thick-skinned and fleshy. When bitten on the throat by a Viper Hunting Wolf, although they would scream for help, they also punched the Viper Hunting Wolf that bit their throat.

A frequent situation was that after a Pig-headed Man was bitten on the throat by a Viper Hunting Wolf, he was so scared that tears and snot came out, and he was still screaming. They maintained this appearance and hammered the skull of the Viper Hunting Wolf that bit their throat flat with their fists. Thick-skinned, fleshy, and strong.

In a pile of corpses composed of Pig-headed Men and Viper Hunting Wolves, Dorothy, whose face was full of blood spots, huddled inside. She had long forgotten the task Su Xiao gave her. Her primary task now was how to survive.

If Aichi, the former host of Black A, saw this scene, he would definitely criticize Dorothy. To use a more fashionable description: "You should quit the group. Among Devourer hosts, you are the most shameful one."
