Chapter 24
Chapter 24: Conquering the Territory of the Eight Human Lords!
Lin Ye smiled as he opened the alliance map.
Although the map page was darkened by fog, within his territory, the 17 small dots with dark golden light were very conspicuous.
Eight of them were between the 1,000 to 2,000 meters range.
When he still had the Level 2 Bunker, he had already discovered these 8 human lords.
Now, the bunker has levelled up and there was an increased range of 1,000 meters.
The remaining nine light spots were between 2,000 to 3,000 meters.
The general direction was clear at one glance.
The closest to this place was six hundred meters to his northeast!
“Let’s go!”
With a shout, Lin Ye charged forward.
Right now, he was full of energy and hated that he couldn’t split himself.
This way, once he conquered all the territories of these 17 people,
He could possibly level up four to five times.
Although he was anxious, Lin Ye became cautious again after crossing the 1,000 meter mark.
Along the way here, he only cleared the area of the initial thousand meters.
From about 1,100 meters onwards, the number of zombies increased again.
The good thing was that the average level of the zombies was low. Against him, who led 50 rangers and 100 light armored shield soldiers, Level 1 zombies were free experience points.
Five hours later, he killed over 200 Level 1 zombies and 7 Level 2 Swift Zombies.
The results were remarkable.
17 sandalwood treasure chests and 3 bronze treasure chests dropped.
Most importantly, there were 7 human lords behind him.
Five men and two women. They were all very young, about twenty-three or twenty-four years old.
It was one less person than expected. By the time Lin Ye brought the team over, one of the female lords was already dead.
She collapsed at the entrance of her graveyard with a glowing sandalwood treasure chest in her arms.
Around her body were several wandering zombies.
It was obvious that she had been ambushed by zombies when she was searching for supplies and escaping towards her graveyard.
As a human, Lin Ye had no other choice.
Kill all the zombies in the graveyard and avenge this lady.
After that, Lin Ye asked Tru to bury her. People from Earth were all particular about burial after death. It was bad enough that they had to lose their lives on a foreign land. There was no need to leave their corpses bare in the wilderness.
He quickly conquered the ownerless graveyard. Afraid that the other seven players would suffer the same fate, Lin Ye quickened his pace and found them before sunset.
It was a pity that humans were different. When they first met, communication between them was not beautiful and there were even conflicts.
Helpless, Lin Ye could only allow Tru to have a few minutes of proper conversation with the men.
Meanwhile, he was leisurely conquering their graveyards.
He conquered eight bunkers in a row.
His experience bar was full. As soon as he returned to his graveyard, he could level it up.
A while later, Tru returned from the grove with the five men, all looking bruised and battered. They looked at Tru with fear.
“My lord, you were right. Humans are despicable. They deserve a beating. After the beating, they became obedient.”
Tru grinned.
Along the way, there was even a man called Xun Mingyuan who tried to block their way. The moment they went up, they slapped him until he screamed miserably.
“…”
Lin Ye glared at him with a dark expression. “Tonight, your beef set meal is gone. You don’t know how to shut your mouth. You only deserve to eat steamed buns.”
“My lord, don’t do that!!!”
Tru let out a miserable crow-like scream.
He looked even more miserable than Xun Mingyuan, who had suffered several beatings.
The group walked and stopped at the different places until the rangers’ arrows ran empty. They killed another 50 Level 1 zombies and 3 Level 2 Swift Zombies.
Only then did everyone start to return. It was safe on the way back. The path back had been cleared by them and it was cleaner than the ground licked by a dog.
Half an hour later, they finally returned to the graveyard before sunset.
This was their first time entering Lin Ye’s territory. The bustling and lively graveyard instantly blinded the eyes of the 7 human lords.
What they saw was a dense cluster of tents, hundreds of laboring native workers and cat-eared girls, dozens of armories busily producing weapons, a large number of barracks training soldiers, and a three-storey bunker.
Strictly speaking, this was a perfect development system.
These things were simply what humans of the outside world dreamed of.
But here, they were like sand and stones in a desert – worthless.
Whether it was the cat-eared girls, the blacksmiths, the barracks, or the armories, there were more than 100 of them. Wasn’t that terrifying?
“Why? We all transmigrated at the same time. Why is he so fast? I can’t accept this!!!” Someone’s face flushed red as he said in anger.
“Keep your voice down. If someone else hears you, they might beat you up again,” a girl advised softly.
“What’s there to be afraid of? He doesn’t dare to really kill us. Who knows what the current situation is? If our death allows us to return to our original world, he’ll have to go to jail once he gets out. No matter how strong he is, he can’t do anything to us!” Some people were stubborn.
As soon as he finished speaking, a few clenched fists with calluses came flying over.
The person who hit him was Worker One.
Although they could be described as trash when fighting zombies,
Their innate physical qualities made it easy for them to bully a human who had just transmigrated.
Now, Lin Ye’s reputation in the graveyard was like the sun in the sky, and Worker One was his number one lackey.
Someone dared to curse his lord. How could he tolerate such humiliation?
He immediately threw aside the green-tailed fish in his hand, grabbed the young man and started attacking violently.
“F*ck, why are you hitting me? The others said the same thing too.”
The other six humans shut their mouths and distanced themselves from him coldly, as if they did not know him.
With the mindset of sacrificing one for six, he questioned.
“None of you will be able to escape.” Worker One scoffed.
He had already seen Lin Ye’s gesture and knew that it was for him to properly train these rude fellows.
“From today onwards, you are no longer lords, but the people of our lord, Lin Ye. Here, only by working hard can you obtain food. Don’t think about being sneaky. I will personally keep an eye on you. What are you all looking at? The fish in the fishery have been harvested. Move the fish.”
As he said that, he picked up a willow branch from somewhere, and drove the 7 angry human youths towards the fishery.
“Watch them. Don’t let Worker One suffer.”
Lin Ye ordered Tru.
Compared to the honest citizens of the underworld, humans were much more cunning.
With Worker One’s straightforward personality, if he did not have the support of combat power, he might suffer a lot.
“Alright, I’ll send a guard over to guard the fishery.” Tru nodded.
On their way out, the other 150 attributeless warriors had been successfully trained into light-armored shield soldiers, which was enough to protect this territory.
Lin Ye glanced at the setting sun and frowned. “It’s almost dinnertime. Send someone to find Adelia and the rest and bring them back. Don’t take too long.”
For some reason, he felt uneasy.
After Tru left, Lin Ye shook his head and went to the bunker to get ready for the upgrade.
