Chương 11: Summoning Spell
Biên tập viên: Atlas Studios
The sun and moon rotated, and the moon retreated. The light of the sun shone on the ground again. It was already the third day of the novice protection period.
In the living room of the Shadow Dragon Villa, Fang Ping, who had just finished his breakfast, lay comfortably on the sofa. He opened the Trading Area in the World Announcement panel and opened his shop. He wanted to see how many stupid rich people would come to buy his goods after he set a high price.
However, when Fang Ping opened his shop, he was surprised to find that the meat and clean water that he had put up for sale, which were several times higher than the market price, had long been sold out. Moreover, judging from the last sales record of the shop, it had only taken him about ten minutes to sell everything out.
If the advertising time was deducted, the resources had probably been snatched up by the novice Overlords in five minutes.
In particular, when Fang Ping saw that there were still people urging him to replenish the stock in the message board of the shop, he laughed happily.
"Looks like there are still many stupid Overlords among the novice Overlords."
"There was so much meat and clean water. Even after the price was increased several times, everything was actually sold out in just a few minutes. It's really too satisfying!"
"It seems that in the remaining few days, I have to make the Skeleton Soldiers work harder to hunt wild beasts. I have to strive to earn a lot of money before the novice protection period ends and make sufficient preparations for the first territory test."
Then, he opened the virtual interface that displayed his resources and checked how much he had earned in one night.
However, just as he opened the virtual materials interface, Fang Ping was shocked by the amount of resources.
[Wood: 30,200 units]
[Stone: 30,306 units]
[Iron Ore: 4,000 units]
[Coal: 4,000 units]
[Refined Iron: 2,000 units]
The quantity of materials shocked Fang Ping on the spot. Not only was the quantity of stone and wood astonishing, he even had 4,000 units of coal mine and refined iron respectively, despite not finding them before this. Furthermore, after the iron ore had been refined, there would be an additional 2,000 units of refined iron. The amount of goods he had collected in one night was much more than what he had collected in two days.
Looking at the huge amount of materials on the materials interface, Fang Ping sighed emotionally.
"In my previous life, people always said that as long as one stood at the center of the storm, even a pig could take off. Indeed, they weren't lying."
"I can exchange for such a huge amount of resources with the meat and clean water that are useless to me. What a joke."
"If I had known this would happen, I would have started hunting wild beasts on the first day to decompose meat and clean water. Why would I need to spend so much effort to get the Skeleton Soldiers to collect wood and stone?"
The huge quantity of resources not only made Fang Ping's mood surge, but it also gave him the capital to squander and build various buildings.
The excited Fang Ping immediately stopped enjoying his leisure time. He quickly put on his clothes and ran to the place where the supplies were placed. He was prepared to command the Skeleton Soldiers to build his territory wantonly. He had to make his territory impregnable.
However, when Fang Ping ran to the place where the building materials were placed, he realized that there were only five Purgatory Skeleton Soldiers left. They were making traps non-stop. Meanwhile, the other four ordinary Skeleton Soldiers had already been separated and killed by the wild beasts last night due to the strong bloody smell on their bodies after collecting materials and hunting wild beasts.
The death of the four Skeleton Soldiers immediately made Fang Ping decide that he had to build offensive buildings like arrow towers and set them up at the edge of his territory, or even build them outside the territory.
This way, not only could he prevent the weak and ordinary Skeleton Soldiers from being killed, but he could also ensure that after the novice protection period, the safe range of his territory would be much larger. It was beneficial to deal with the first test of his territory.
After all, although the strength of ordinary Skeleton Soldiers could be increased by leveling them up, the strength of ordinary Skeleton Soldiers was trash. Even after the enhancement of the Shadow Dragon Villa and reaching Level-1, their strength was still a little less trash.
They were fine when facing small beasts, but once they were targeted by large beasts, they would be useless. Unless they formed a skeleton army or a sea of skeletons, they were basically useless in battle.
Moreover, he still needed them to do manual labor. How could he let them find and fight large wild beasts? Wouldn't it be better to leave the Skeleton Soldiers to do construction manual labor and build offensive buildings outside the territory to hunt wild beasts?
Then, Fang Ping made up his mind to build offensive buildings like arrow towers today. He could not let wild beasts kill his Skeleton Soldiers anymore.
However, before that, he had to summon the ten Skeleton Soldiers today. This way, he would have enough manpower to build buildings. Moreover, it would not affect the units of meat and clean water used for the trade at night.
After all, if all the Skeleton Soldiers built buildings, there would be no manpower to hunt wild beasts. Then, there would be no goods to be put on sale on the Trading Area at night.
Fang Ping decided that he would not waste any manpower. He walked briskly into the territory, to another graveyard, and began to summon today's Skeleton Soldiers.
It was just that after yesterday's lesson, Fang Ping did not dare to randomly recite other unknown incantations from the Undead Summoning Spell. He could only obediently recite the incantation he used the first time he summoned ordinary Skeleton Soldiers.
After all, before knowing the use of other incantations, if he casually recited other incantations, who knew what he would summon? If he summoned something that would kill his summoned creatures, wouldn't that be courting death?
"The souls of the endless abyss and hell!"
"In the name of the Undead Overlord, I summon you to return and listen to my commands!"
As Fang Ping recited the incantation, skeleton claws stretched out from the graves in front of him. They pushed away the soil and coffin above their bodies. After piecing together the bones on their bodies, their eyes burned with dark blue Soul Fire. They walked slowly to Fang Ping, waiting for his instructions.
However, looking at the ordinary Skeleton Soldiers in front of him, Fang Ping felt that something was not right. He stroked the stubble on his chin and thought for a moment before suddenly realizing what was wrong.
He only had nine Skeleton Soldiers in front of him, but couldn't he summon ten after leveling up?
Where did the tenth Skeleton Soldier go? Did he say something wrong and not summon it?
Just as Fang Ping was wondering if he had recited the incantation wrongly, a magic array shining with grayish-white light and emitting the aura of the dead suddenly appeared in front of the nine Skeleton Soldiers who were standing in a row.
After the magic array appeared, a one-meter tall Skeleton Dog with a bone tail about one and a half meters long appeared.
The moment he saw the Skeleton Dog, Fang Ping instantly understood. It was not that he did not recite the correct summoning incantation.
Instead, he had encountered his first guaranteed summon and summoned a Skeleton Dog that had a lower probability of appearing.
However, after the magic array disappeared, this terrifying-looking Skeleton Dog suddenly darted in front of Fang Ping. It wagged its tail and rubbed against his trouser leg, circling around Fang Ping non-stop.
It was simply like a pet dog, completely different from its appearance.
After staring at the Skeleton Dog's coquettish appearance for a moment, Fang Ping opened the Skeleton Dog's interface to check if its attributes matched its appearance.
[Undead Summoned Creature: Skeleton Dog]
[Level: Level-1 (All Attributes +1)]
[It will be the first pet to be summoned after leveling up. It has a sharp sense of smell and runs extremely fast. It is the best choice to be a lazy person's pet dog.]
