Chapter 1270: Chapter 1270
Du You watched as the people from the academy began taking over the canyon. Since it was a strategic location, the academy planned to construct a fortress here, not allowing the Undead to reclaim it.
Du You’s skeleton army had already completely cleared the area, so there was no need for further cleansing of the Undead.
This battle had allowed Du You’s Bone Dragons to grow to over two hundred, counting the dead ones, the total number of Bone Dragons had probably neared three hundred. The ability to create Undead using materials like wood and soil made their growth rapid.
After packaging over two hundred Bone Dragons, Du You finally received a message from the vice chancellor. It turned out the vice chancellor had pursued the enemy overnight and had only managed to eliminate them then. This Zombie had more than usual defensive power and was not slow either. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so much trouble. A wounded Zombie, along with Undead fiends scattered around the world, had indeed caused some obstruction for the vice chancellor.
But without a seventh-tier presence, the opponent still couldn’t escape this pursuit.
It was said that the vice chancellor had already traveled to other locations and had new missions. And this place was finally conquered, Du You had also earned considerable merits, and the academy had awarded him many points.
As for the rewards, Du You hadn’t really decided what he wanted. He had planned to wait until he reached the sixth tier before deciding. But the reward this time likely didn’t meet the requirements for a sixth-tier item.
It was indeed a headache. Ultimately, Du You thought hard and requested a blueprint from the academy. The blueprint was for an Undead Attribute facility, specifically a supplementary blueprint for the Lord’s Mansion.
The blueprint was for a White Bone Forge, which had appeared just in time for Du You to notice, or else it would have definitely been taken by others.
After receiving his reward, Du You packed the Bone Dragons and then left this world with his two sisters. He still had the coordinates of this world in hand, so he could return anytime he wished.
Upon returning to Earth, Du You and the others relaxed completely. After confirming that no significant changes had occurred in the Yalan Continent, Du You tasked Li Minglu to find a suitable world for him, and then he left it all behind.
Before he knew it, some time had passed. One day, Du You learned that Li Mengyao had started building her territory since he had already begun his territory task before leaving, so there was no need for his help.
During this territorial development, Xi Qianxue had also brought her team to assist. It was said to have been quite harrowing, but Li Mengyao’s territory task was finally completed. Although it was only tier three and lacked basic infrastructure, the world chosen by Li Mengyao was supposedly of the seventh tier, although it wasn’t too powerful.
The whole world showed no signs of seventh-tier powerhouses, leaving one to wonder where they were hidden.
That world was one of those controlled by the academy, which hadn’t yet planned to take control, but it also contained two other territories belonging to the academy, making monopolization impossible. In such a world, upgrading the territory was difficult.
Just like Du You’s Shenghai Kingdom, upgrading was a step-by-step, tedious process.
In any case, this territory couldn’t be kept a secret from others. Once Du You started paying attention to external information, he discovered that his group’s names were once again widely promoted and had become household names.
The gimmick of having two beautiful female lords caused quite a stir among the academy’s student body.
They were already known as the twin stars of their batch because of their strength and beauty. Now that they had both become lords, it would have been strange for the academy not to promote them. One could imagine that next year, upon the start of school, if the other academies hadn’t presented standout students for promotion, Capital University would likely dominate again in terms of recruitment.
It was said that many people were already applying to join Li Mengyao’s territory, but Li Mengyao had rejected all.
Under the name of Du You’s company, with the help of Li Minglu, and having an Elf-based foundation, this territory was developing rapidly. Li Mengyao had also acquired a Lord’s Mansion and opened a portal to the territory space. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝕟𝕖𝕥
Among the companies under Du You’s direct control, there were already several territories, and investing in more had brought the total to over a dozen. The company’s strength was continuously growing.
Since they were developing a new territory, Li Mengyao and Xi Qianxue didn’t have time to return, busying themselves immensely. Compared to them, Du You was much more relaxed. These days were truly comfortable.
"Boss, do you have any plans for the development of Li Mengyao’s territory?" Li Minglu asked Du You, seeing the two as part of the same family, so Du You having a say was not an issue.
With the new territory, because it was gained through her own struggles, Li Mengyao’s standing within her family had risen significantly. Even some crucial family matters required Li Mengyao’s participation in the discussions.
Du You waved his hand, "Just like before, help out where we can. As for the development of the territory, of course, the lord decides." Du You wasn’t about to make trouble for himself.
Li Minglu nodded, seemingly understanding Du You’s intentions.
Then Li Minglu spoke again, "Boss, there’s one more thing, the academy wants to use the footage from your last battle for a promotional image, do you agree?" The last battle images? Du You remembered.
It was his battle at Black Fog Canyon. Since battle footage could easily expose some of one’s methods and weaknesses, most people wouldn’t allow their battle footage to circulate. If it did circulate, it would usually be edited. But Du You was different, about to advance to the sixth tier, so even if he was exposed, what could it matter?
Besides, his skill level was very high, and knowing it wouldn’t help them counter him. As for weaknesses, Du You really didn’t think he had any. Addressing weaknesses had always been Du You’s strategic approach in his development.
"Alright, if they want to use it, let them use it." Being able to have an academy respect his wishes showed that Du You’s status was now vastly different from before. After Li Minglu ended the communication, he went back to being busy.
On Du You’s side, life became leisurely again. Every day, he either taught his two sisters or cultivated advanced skills together. Time flew by, and eventually, Du You felt a bit vexed as much of the semester had passed.
Du You wasn’t unwilling to act; he just hadn’t found the right opportunity. But now he didn’t need to worry, as Li Minglu had sent him new world coordinates, an Undead and Demon-themed world that not only suited Du You’s needs but also was suitable for building a new territory.
