Chapter 42 -42: Becoming a Major Arms Dealer
After battling for quite some time, Fang Jie had realized his Skeleton Warriors and Iron Armor Zombies couldn’t really harm each other.
The Iron Armor Zombies were essentially always on the receiving end of the hits, but they hardly sustained any serious injuries.
Even when utilizing the Power of Death, it only resulted in a somewhat larger wound.
To the Iron Armor Zombies, though the wound was big, it wasn’t fatal.
Unfortunately, the Iron Armor Zombies couldn’t catch up with their opponents’ movements, so the situation simply stagnated.
Over time, the fight typically ended with the Skeleton Warriors exhausting their energy and the Iron Armor Zombies unable to catch up.
However, Fang Jie believed the Skeleton Warriors were more useful, with the speed of the Iron Armor Zombies being a particular downside.
Before long, he had also managed to create his own Skeleton Knights.
Looking at the Skeleton Knight, Fang Jie felt a sense of towering and formidable presence.
Astride a tall and mighty steed, seemingly grown together as one, there was no worry of falling off.
The knight bore a large shield, capable of covering the entirety of his being, with a large bone sword in his right hand.
There was also something akin to armor on the body, providing protection to certain vital areas.
It looked almost like something between Light and Heavy Cavalry, but because it was made of bones, it was extremely lightweight.
In fact, much lighter than even the normal Light Cavalry.
After a charge test, Fang Jie found that the Skeleton Knight’s charging speed could even compare with that of the Wolf Riders.
On the lower end of the battlefield, cavalry were essentially kings, not to mention untouched by fear of death Skeleton Cavalry.
“Not bad, not bad.
Let’s start with material production for upgrading; the Territory needs to upgrade and will require those special materials,” Fang Jie ordered the allocation of Corpses for manufacturing while he started producing materials.
Origin Village Level 5: A Territory Core Building with a certain production capability, able to produce Skeleton Labor.
Upgrade requirements: Hardwood 10,000 units, Solid Stone 10,000 units, Refined Stone Bricks 5,000 units, refined wood planks 5,000 units, Bones 3,000 units, Spirit Points 100,000 units, Population 10,000.
Having upgraded the village to level 5, Fang Jie found that his village had reached its limit.
An upgrade to continue further meant progressing to a town.
And once it becomes a town, he would have to face the next choice, namely, whether to accept the test.
Having tasted success, Fang Jie wasn’t likely to refuse.
Therefore, not only did he plan to undergo the test, but he also chose the highest level.
However, his troop strength was not enough, specifically, he lacked higher level Undead Troops like Black Iron.
Since Corpses were scarce, Fang Jie prepared to expand the search area to collect as many Black Iron Corpses as possible.
While the production of materials required some time, the lost Skeleton Soldiers also needed replenishment.
While manufacturing, Fang Jie opened the discussion forum.
“These past few days, why isn’t Fang Jie the Big Shot showing up?
I’ve got no Skeleton Soldiers to use.”
“You still need Skeleton Soldiers?
Why buy so many?
I’m thinking of changing strategies.”
“Why?
Skeleton Soldiers are so useful, what will you transition to?”
“They are useful, but after all, they are skeletons.
When dealing with the natives, they react violently at the mere sight of skeletons, there’s simply no way to proceed.”
“That’s true, but do you even have a formal army to use?”
“No, I heard some big players have made them, but they don’t sell.”
Frowning, Fang Jie noticed fewer orders than before, somewhat understanding that the era of selling Skeleton Soldiers in large numbers was over.
It wasn’t that they were no longer effective; it was just that Undead Troops like these were being rejected.
There wasn’t much Fang Jie could do about it; perhaps other race’s troops would gradually become the mainstream.
The shortcomings of Undead Troops were also very apparent; one was the lack of significant intellect, and the other was their inherent fragility.
“Does any big shot have weapons to offer?
I’m running out of Iron Swords.”
“You still want those, they are so expensive.
Just make a few more troops, can’t you?”
“But I need troops to make, don’t I?
I’m just arming a few farmers.
Believe it or not, once armed, farmers’ Combat Power is not inferior to that of regular troops.”
Though Fang Jie didn’t know how they managed it, they certainly didn’t win by blindly charging in.
Seeing their discussions, Fang Jie knew that the business he had planned to offer after some time seemed doable for an earlier start.
As for the trading materials, he had already figured them out.
“Why don’t you trade your farmers for Skeleton Soldiers?
Those things are so cheap and don’t waste food.”
“These don’t waste much either; just exchange for some native Gold Coins or something, food isn’t expensive for the natives.
At least, small amounts of food can still be easily bought.”
“What are native Gold Coins?
Aren’t they the same Gold Coins we use?”
“No, our Gold Coins are like a resource, while natives use Gold Coins solely as currency.
Different places have different Gold Coins, so as long as you identify the weight and gold content, you’re good.” Someone chimed in to explain.
At that moment, Fang Jie suddenly listed a large number of bone weapons for sale.
To Fang Jie, these were just some Bone materials and the ones on the bodies of Skeleton Soldiers would suffice; he wouldn’t need to use the Corpse materials that he could utilize.
As for the cost, it was merely some Spirit Points.
One Spirit Point could manufacture a unit of weapons, and this ‘unit’ was not one piece but at least ten to start, and for Arrows, it could directly provide up to a hundred pieces.
The production capacity was quite substantial.
The speed of the weapon manufacturing factory was also much faster than Fang Jie had anticipated.
Even arming the majority of his Undead Troops wouldn’t be a problem.
As soon as Fang Jie listed the items, it immediately caused quite a sensation.
“Fang Jie the Big Shot has appeared, caught a real big shot.”
“Cute girl, good at keeping warm, seeking sponsorship.”
“Boss, I want a batch of Skeleton Soldiers, the price is negotiable.”
As soon as Fang Jie appeared, it prompted a vast array of responses.
A few seconds later, people finally noticed what Fang Jie had posted for sale, and this time it was weapons.
“It’s weapons, swords, shields, bows, and arrows, everything you could need, and the quantity this time is enormous.”
“With these, I can arm the farmers and still get impressive Combat Power.”
“Why are you still talking?
Haven’t you seen it’s almost sold out?”
With that remark, everyone suddenly realized the number of weapons was rapidly decreasing.
Fang Jie laughed to himself, finding the arms business surprisingly lucrative, much better than selling Skeleton Soldiers directly.
It was normal for some to be averse to his troop types, especially Skeletons.
But weapons were different.
They were a bargain — high-quality and reasonably priced.
Even if they knew the weapons were made of bone, they wouldn’t care, as they weren’t going to use them personally.
And what Fang Jie was trading were system-recognized Gold Coins; who knew if there might be a use for them in the future?
