I am the Scourge

Chapter 40 Black Mountain County

Go back to the meeting hall of the castle.

Li Wei asked Eric to take out the map of the surrounding area and the information of the nearby forces, and he was in a hurry for a while.

These are all necessary things for a territory.

But the demon corpse never paid attention to these things before, and there has never been a stronger force around it. Thunder Cloud Fort has remained in its original state for a long time without any development, let alone planning to occupy the surrounding area.

Fortunately, he finally took it out.

On the round table in the conference hall, Eric unfolded a pair of animal skin maps, with a large number of icons densely marked on it, but Li Wei frowned when he saw the date. The map was actually drawn 300 years ago.

"The Netherworld is ruled by five monarchs, and there are few drastic changes in power in the region. This map should still be usable..."

Eric snorted.

"..."

Li Wei frowned and looked at the map silently.

This map only draws the domain where he is currently located.

It is called Heishan County.

mention here.

So I have to first introduce the undead forces I am currently joining.

Dark Scourge.

The dark natural disaster is the collective name of the forces of the five undead monarchs, and the one controlled by the black fire monarch is the Black Fire Legion.

There are seven generals in the legion, each governing an area. The Leiyun Plain and the coastal area where he is located are all within the jurisdiction of Heishan County and are under the control of General Calamity.

The dark land is sparsely populated.

The sum of all the areas I have explored so far is only the tip of the iceberg of the entire Black Mountain County.

But Li Wei found that his place was the only place in Heishan County that bordered the ocean.

This doesn't seem like a good thing to be thankful for...

Remember the terrible Black Sea.

Li Wei couldn't help thinking.

There are many large and small forces in Heishan County, the strongest of which have grown to the level of the cemetery, and even the weakest have reached the level of the second-level territory. Li Wei has not forgotten that this is a map from 300 years ago.

"Death Castle, Peeling Valley, Forest Town... I want to know the details of these forces." Li Wei pointed to the nearest forces on the map and said, "Are there any units in the castle that are good at scouting?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he felt that the question was unnecessary.

If there were soldiers in the castle who were good at scouting, they wouldn't have been shut up for more than half a week by themselves before, and the demon corpses wouldn't be ignorant of the strength of their territory's troops, so they would recklessly launch a general attack.

Sure enough, Eric hesitated and couldn't tell.

Li Wei didn't make things difficult for him.

Eric has no commander attribute and knows nothing about the military. Now that he has two territories, he needs to recruit talents in this area as soon as possible.

Expansion to the surrounding area is not imminent.

However, after looking at the map, Li Wei found that the resources of Thundercloud Plain were quite limited.At present, the most precious resource point that Lei Yunbao has is the mine vein that can produce magic spar, but it is also facing depletion.

Not to mention other resources.

Only sitting on the plains can domesticate carnivorous creatures, resulting in a very rich food output.

Leiyun Castle has two breeding gardens and a large area of ​​polluted fields, each harvest cycle can obtain thousands of units of food.

Nether's common crop harvest cycle is half a month, while carnivorous creatures can take as long as three months.

Most of the carnivorous units used for domestication are ghost pigs, a type of undead creature. Its meat contains a strong breath of death, and only undead creatures can absorb it, let alone sacrifice it as a living being.

Most of the resources owned by Lei Yunbao are plundered by space rifts.

For the undead with low intelligence, plundering is indeed more convenient than self-production.

But Li Wei has human wisdom after all.

Look at the map.

The plan for the future gradually took shape in Levi's mind.

"Find a few undead who can express fluently, and convey my willingness to form an alliance to these three lords, saying that I intend to disclose the resources of the Thundercloud Plain, start trade with them, and promote friendly relations."

Li Wei ordered.

"……Yes."

Eric had doubts but did not express them. His ability prevented him from guessing Li Wei's true thoughts, but he was only good. Whether he understood it or not, he would completely obey the lord's instructions.

The alliance is, of course, a pretense.

Li Wei's purpose is to find out the attitudes of these three forces.

If it can be exchanged for an alliance, it is naturally the best. The resources of the Leiyun Plain are almost exhausted, and he is equivalent to an empty-handed white wolf. After that, he can use the advantage of the alliance to quickly accumulate resources and improve the strength of the territory.

Being rejected is also reasonable.

Right to test.

Li Wei then restarted the recruitment building of the production unit that had been idled by the demon corpse for a long time, quickly restored the population, and drew [-] skeleton warriors and [-] skeleton archers from the soul soil to settle in the fortifications of the castle.

The layout of Thunder Cloud Castle has been planned by Mo Zong for many years, and it is definitely easy to defend but difficult to attack.

With these [-] units, it is enough to withstand a large-scale enemy attack until the arrival of Soul Soil's support troops.

The architectural pattern in the city has been formed, and Li Wei does not intend to destroy its original structure, retains the production system, and expands the economy with all its strength. Li Wei plans to make Thunder Cloud Fort completely follow the development of Soul Soil to two extremes.

future.

He even wanted to turn Leiyun Castle into a trading city.

No one stipulates that the opening of space rifts can only be used to launch wars with the human world. Li Wei has many ideas. If conditions permit, he can use the space rifts to open the tourism industry between the world and the netherworld.

With players, infinite possibilities can be created...

Li Wei set the undead knight's training priority to the highest, and looked at the troops he had just unlocked.

Black Fire Legion.

This is a branch of arms derived from the undead clan. It has a complete range of types, including melee and long-range, as well as exclusive flying arms and functional troops. Up to the ninth-tier unit can be recruited.

The strength of this force is stronger than ordinary units.

A second-level black fire swordsman, the attribute of naked clothes is equivalent to that of a skeleton warrior wearing ordinary equipment.

The disadvantages are also obvious.

The Black Flame Legion is a unit directly under the Black Flame Lord, and their loyalty to themselves will never be the first priority. If they rely too much on it, any slight dissatisfaction from the Black Fire Lord will lead to a direct collapse of the territorial structure.

Although Li Wei knew that he would not develop to the point where he could compete against the Blackfire Lord for a long time.

But, he has the Lord of the Rings.

After all, this thing is a time bomb that will detonate at any time.

Levi came to a conclusion.

It can be cultivated and cannot be relied on. At least in the early stage, recruiting the arms of the Black Flame Legion can bring him a great advantage.

Li Wei made a selection, and finally decided to recruit three types of Black Fire Corps to improve their strength.

They are Black Fire Swordsman, Black Fire Mage, and Black Fire Sentinel.

They are all second-tier troops.

The power building of the legion is the same as the general building of the undead clan. It is gradually unlocked with the level of the territory. If you want to get a leapfrog unit like the undead knight, you can only rely on the architectural blueprints obtained from trading or opening treasure boxes.

Such leapfrog blueprints are often very precious.

　I have a bad stomach after eating, and I am a little exhausted. I will make up for it tomorrow.
