These days, Mu Yuan had been contacting Sophia two to three times a day on average. With the clue of the "Rampage Lockdown Zone," Sophia now had a more direct target while exploring and searching.

These were regions where energy was incredibly turbulent, often giving rise to tides of danger and extremity.

Previously, such areas were not the main focus of Sophia\'s search. She had been concentrating on the clue of the "black giant peaks."

Raging energy and perpetually catastrophic lands were inherently unsuitable for territories to thrive in peace, so it was improbable for Tianyuan Territory to be located within these extreme locations.

But,

what if these dangerous and extreme lands not only had the visible extent but also contained mysteries and hidden passages?

Mu Yuan had taken a basic geography course about the Eternal World—through online teaching channels—and he roughly knew that the domains within the Eternal World were very distant from each other, separated by vast spatial gaps. Often, only through specific "tunnels" or "bridges" could the Lords reach another domain.

Therefore, without using places like Secret Realms as transit points, it would be incredibly difficult for a Lord to transport large quantities of goods to another domain.

I digress...

When the Rakshasa tried crossing the Furious Region, he could distinctly observe changes in the space.

He, including the legendary giant Asolo, had the intuition that by crossing the frenzied belt, they could reach a brand new region. So, could there be "passages" within the Frenzied Area? Could some of the perilous and harsh lands in the Twilight Dominion be exactly the Frenzied Area that Rakshasa saw?

Based on this speculation, Mu Yuan didn\'t solely rely on guesses; he always believed that no matter how deteriorated his situation was, his territory could not have moved half a domain or a whole extra domain away.

There was only one truth.

After a few days, Sophia actually made a discovery rather quickly. They found an area very similar to the turbulent energy belt he described. They are now carefully probing deeper into it.

Mu Yuan didn\'t hold high expectations.

What Sophia found might not necessarily be the Frenzied Area. Even if it was, it\'s not guaranteed that the region contains the so-called passages.

Search slowly, wait patiently.

Months had passed, and Mu Yuan was no longer as anxious as he initially was.

He occasionally read newspapers published by Tai Xuan to stay informed about the external market.

Over the past few days, he also upgraded important structures like the Staff of Divine Right, Intermediate Mage Tower, Thunder Magnetic Coil Tower, and Necromancy Tower to LV5, one after another.

Upgrading Miracle Buildings didn\'t take long, nor did they require any rare materials; it merely required consuming a sum of Soul Crystals.

But...

The amount of Soul Crystals consumed was not insignificant.

For example, upgrading an Arrow Tower from LV4 to LV5 required 2000g of Soul Sand, equivalent to two Soul Crystal Coins. It might not seem much, but the total number of Arrow Towers in Tianyuan Territory was well over a thousand. Scatter these thousands of Arrow Towers along the territory walls and various regions, and they no longer seem as plentiful.

Of course, Mu Yuan didn\'t intend to maximize the level of every Arrow Tower and Watchtower.

For Arrow Towers established outside the city walls, serving the purpose of vigilance and defense against sporadic monsters, he usually only upgraded them to LV2. City wall Arrow Towers and ordinary farmland are always at risk of destruction, after all.

But even after excluding some non-essential Miracle Buildings from full upgrades, upgrading all the remaining ones would still require thousands of Soul Crystals.

Mu Yuan found it to be quite expensive.

Even as a man with mines, he was unable at the moment to fully upgrade all Miracle Buildings.

He also needed to keep at least a thousand Soul Crystals in reserve for war, as well as purchase and stockpile a large quantity of potions, crossbow bolts, ammunition, equipment, and other war supplies.

Master Li\'s factory had been operating around the clock, but Mu Yuan had to purchase the vast majority of war supplies externally.

The volume of his purchases was so large that often not a single intermediary seller could fulfill the entire order.

"Bro, big bro, how much war supplies have you bought? This could be enough for a massive war involving millions!"

Jiang Luoxing was astonished.

In front of him lay the supplies that Mu Yuan commissioned a senior Lord to purchase.

The amount was so great that even using Universal Type III Spatial Storage Boxes, they filled a total of sixteen boxes.

Some Lords couldn\'t help but move aside, fearing that the explosives inside might suddenly go off.

"It\'s not much, not much. Some of it I\'m also buying for others as a middleman," Mu Yuan explained.

"Oh, I see," Jiang Luoxing realized.

He had heard that Boss Tianyuan had met several Vitality Forces in the new territory. If he was acting as a middleman for other forces, that made sense.

His territory had also undergone relocation, but why hadn\'t he encountered any Elf misses? He too wanted to buy for Elves, even a 10.5% discount would do.

Mu Yuan wasn\'t just making it up.

Indeed, a part of the batches of war supplies he purchased was for the Elves and Giants. As war approached, in order to increase their chances of victory and secure more room for survival and development, both races were determined.

About 40% of the war supplies were funded by them for purchase.

Mu Yuan, the middleman, made no profit from the markup.

He would have liked to profit from the price difference, but the living conditions of the Elves and Giants were only slightly better than that of the Feathermen, still quite a bit away from being wealthy. The vast powers of the Natural Garden and Giant Stone Ridge, in terms of conventional wealth, might even be less than many of the great Lords in Tai Xuan.

With both races being so impoverished, what could he do? He could only continue to buy on their behalf without earning a penny in markup.
