Amidst the surprised exclamations.

The 2000 units of meat were quickly disappearing, and in the blink of an eye, they had all been sold out.

As a result, Fang Hao acquired a large amount of materials.

The materials piled up in his territory are growing rapidly, like a mountain.

There were too many people in the regional channel.

Even 2000 units of meat were not enough for everyone.

Messages started appearing again in the channel of people who missed out, asking if more could be put on sale.

Ding!

A private chat notification sounded.

Upon opening it, it was the young lady who had sold him the Shadowstone, named Dong Jiayue.

“Brother Hao, are you there?” Dong Jiayue asked directly.

Fang Hao immediately replied, “I am.”

“Brother Hao, I’ve gotten two more pieces of Shadowstone. I want to exchange them for some food.” Dong Jiayue said.

In the morning, the two had already conducted a trade of Shadowstone.

One piece of Shadowstone was traded for 30 units of food from Fang Hao.

Shadowstone is a special building material for the Undead faction and is essentially useless and non-marketable in the human factions.

Obtaining 30 units already exceeded Dong Jiayue’s expectations. She was so thrilled after the first transaction that she cheered for a long time.

“Sure, you can list them, and I will buy them.” Fang Hao said.

“Ok, thank you, Brother Hao.”

Dong Jiayue agreed and immediately initiated the assigned trade of two Shadowstones.

Fang Hao, in return, promptly paid 60 units of meat and made the purchase.

Upon completion of the trade, both parties were pleased.

Fang Hao acquired the faction specific material, and Dong Jiayue received 60 units of meat which could last her several days.

Moreover, she could potentially exchange these for other resources.

If there’s one resource that currently acts as a medium of exchange, it would definitely be meat.

Having taken care of everything.

Fang Hao quickly stuffed the remaining grilled meat into his mouth.

After satisfying his hunger, he promptly arrived at the Underground Cemetery.

[Level 2 Underground Cemetery]

[Recruitment Cap: 10/10]

[Recruitable: Skeleton (Free)]

(Note: Can recruit labor troops at this building to do basic work.)

[Materials needed for upgrade: Wood 600, Stone 800, Hemp 120, Shadowstone 2.]

Previously, he didn’t upgrade.

Because he lacked Shadowstone, in addition to that which he had just traded from Dong Jiayue,

He now had exactly three Shadowstones in his possession, satisfying the upgrade material requirements.

Upgrade!

With a flash of light, the Underground Cemetery was successfully upgraded.

[Level 3 Underground Cemetery]

[Recruitment Cap: 10/20]

[Recruitable: Skeleton (Free)]

(Note: Can recruit labor troops at this building to do basic work.)

[Materials needed for upgrade: Wood 1200, Stone 1600, Leather 100, Hemp 240, Shadowstone 5.]

After the upgrade.

The recruitment cap has increased from 10 to 20.

Fang Hao immediately began recruitment.

[Recruitable: Skeleton 10, do you wish to recruit?]

Confirm recruitment.

The system’s prompt once again sounded.

[Hundredfold Amplification triggered, successfully recruited 1010 Skeletons.]

A dense light brightened up, and 1010 Skeletons crowded around.

He then created 1010 sets of stone axes and stone picks, distributing them to the newly recruited Skeletons.

Next, he began to create Leather Armor and Wooden Shields.

[Hundredfold Amplification triggered, successfully crafted 3030 Simple Leather Armors.]

[Hundredfold Amplification triggered, successfully crafted 2020 Wooden Shields.]

Currently, the number of Labor Skeletons are around two thousand, of which several were lost in the beast attack.

The number of Skeleton Soldiers is 900, being the main armed force within the territory.

He called all the working Skeletons outside to gather.

Regardless of whether they were Skeleton Soldiers or Labor Skeletons, all were uniformly equipped with [Simple Leather Armor] and [Wooden Shields].

As for weapons, apart from the twenty Skeleton Soldiers who were equipped with [Iron Daggers], the rest were uniformly equipped with stone axes.

The Gnoll Base must be taken down as soon as possible.

Whether it’s about eliminating hidden threats or strengthening ourselves, the sooner it is done, the more beneficial it is.

Fang Hao stood on a large stone, looking at the vast ocean of Skeletons below.

“Bones and dogs, historically incompatible, tonight I shall lead you all to annihilate the gnolls, and regain the dignity of us undead.”

Fang Hao raised his arm and shouted, his expression high-spirited.

But around him was still silent.

The Skeletons dumbfoundedly stared at him, like an array of terracotta soldiers, with no movement at all.

“Uh, well, I just want to tell you that this battle is not just for me.” Fang Hao jumped down from the large stone, mumbling, “Sooner or later, you’ll depress me.”

Other lords could chat with their peasants.

He, on the other hand, had to live with a bunch of Skeletons every day.

Just on the second day, he already felt a bit autistic.

Even his self-proclaimed title has become ‘us undead’.

He’s going to stress himself to death, sooner or later.

“Alright, let’s go.” Fang Hao called out.

The procession set off majestically, with the weapon-wielding Skeletons surrounding Fang Hao in the middle.

Offering him adequate protection.

Even if danger arose, attacking him wouldn’t be easy.

The procession continued to advance towards the Gnoll Base.

In the morning’s survey, Fang Hao had roughed out a map.

Not to mention it’s also close by and not hard to find, they could soon see the still bustling Gnoll Base from a distance.

“Squat down, everyone squat down.” Fang Hao half-squatted, letting the bushes conceal everyone from sight.

Seeing this, the Skeletons mimicked him, squatting down and moving forward.

Concealing their bodies as much as possible.

This wasn’t intended as a stealth attack, but rather, since their side lacks long-range troop types, to reduce the distance of attack as much as possible.

To reduce casualties on the way to the attack.

Fang Hao lead the Skeleton Army to quickly approach their destination.

Despite sneaking while squatting, the rustling of the large patches of bushes and grass made quite the noise.

In an instant, it caught the attention of the nearby Gnoll woodcutters.

With wide open eyes, they curiously looked towards the direction where Fang Hao and his men were.

“Charge, take down the base.” Fang Hao issued the command.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!

Upon receiving the command, the Skeletons instantly burst out of the bushes and killed in the direction of the base.

Oooh!!

A horn was blown in the Gnoll Base. Facing the attack of the Skeleton Army, the village gate began to close slowly.

Regardless of the gnolls outside the gate shouting, the gate was not opened. In the end, the gnolls were caught up by the charging Skeletons and the chaotic axe ruthlessly turned them into mud.

Facing the attack of the Skeleton Sea, an instant counter-defence was made inside the camp.

Gnoll Slingers ascended the wooden defence walls and began to swing their slings and throw.

The power of the slings was impressive.

When it hit the Wooden Shields and Simple Leather Armors, it could absorb some of the damage.

But when it hit the skeleton frame of the Labor Skeletons, fractures would appear on the hit part, and in worse cases, they would break directly.

Fang Hao watched from afar.

He was resentful that his troops did not have long-range weapons.

Fortunately, he still had an absolute advantage in numbers. At this moment, the Skeleton Army had already reached the foot of the wall.

Like human pyramids, relying on each other’s bodies, they successfully climbed up the three-meter-high wooden defence wall.

Seeing this reminded Fang Hao of a scene from a movie he had seen.

It was extremely similar to a scene from World War Z.
