Chapter 490: Chapter 490
All men were uniformly arranged, Du You could also see the labels of level 9 on their heads.
Giant Rock Heavy Armored Warrior: Level 9
The heavy armored warrior was the opponent he least liked to encounter in the past. They were all wrapped up like canned iron, from head to toe in metallic armor. Plus, the armor was quite unique.
Because on the surface of the armor, a special layer of rock coating was inlaid, making the armor’s defense and resistance even stronger, the shield was the same. Only one hand held a single-handed sword, it was clear at a glance that this was a very defensive branch of the armed forces.
Through experimentation, Du You found that these soldiers were very slow and that their attacks weren’t very strong. But when it came to defense, it was terrifying. It’s not an easy task for a typical tier two aboriginal to take down a Giant Rock Heavy Armored Warrior head-on. It was like a dog biting a turtle, there’s nowhere to take a bite.
"We could further increase the defense." Du You pulled out the Quicksand Treasure Clothes from his own hands, 238 pieces in total. They wouldn’t all be used this time. The rest were to be cleaned up by Shaliya.
Quicksand Treasure Clothes: Create a strong defense by swirling sand around the body. Nullifies physical attacks by 4, slows down movements, and obstructs vision.
With the Quicksand Treasure Clothes, the defense of these heavy-armored warriors would be even more terrifying. Such an elite force, placed on the city wall, should be able to hold their own even if the enemy is strong this time.
Although these people are only able to sustain a few magic spells in one’s own hands. However, the power of these soldiers would turn Giant Rock Fortress green with envy. Though a territory needs top experts, ordinary soldiers were also indispensable.

Quicksand Treasure Flag: Symbols of the desert lord, territory-specific.
Function: 1 Randomly forms quicksand traps around the territory. Quicksand traps only work against enemies, and one can move freely.
The quicksand in the territory forms Desert Wolves to automatically patrol and protect the safety of the territory.
As the Quicksand Treasure Flag was driven into the City Lord Mansion, the outside world changed again. Outside the city wall, the ground started to undergo sandification and turned into a circle of sandy land. Since the ground was loose, it also increased the difficulty of attacking the city.
Heavy siege weaponry would easily get stuck in it. Looking over the wall, Du You could see circles on the ground. "Can you guys see those circles?" Du You asked, pointing to the ground.
"Yes, we can see them, they should all be visible to us, it’s to avoid causing accidental injuries."
Shaliya tossed a stone into one of the circles. Suddenly, the circle began to flow, quickly swallowing the stone.
Turns out, this was a quicksand trap and anyone stepping into it would sink. However, there wasn’t a single one on this middle road. Although the location of the quicksand traps would keep changing, they would never appear on this road in the middle.
That is to say, as long as the rules are followed, there wouldn’t be unexpected incidents.
Suddenly, the sand on the ground began to flow, with several Desert Wolves appearing. These weren’t actual Desert Wolves but special creatures formed from sands that would only attack hostile organisms.
These Desert Wolves feel no fear, even if killed, they would still reform as long as the territory doesn’t fall.
Once placed, the Quicksand Treasure Flag could not be moved. It could only be used in this territory.
Now that all preparations have been made, Du You just needed to wait for the Magical Beasts to attack the city, then withstand it. The second phase of territory construction on the panel has been completed, there were now more than three buildings in his hands.
"Next, focus all efforts on building the Griffin Nest and the Pharmaceutical Factory. Who knows what troubles we might run into after the Magical Beasts attack the city." Seeing his subjects having nothing to do, Du You had to give the order.
Indeed, they really had nothing to do. The people needed at the farms weren’t that many, and they were in a valley where they couldn’t go out for now, as it was too dangerous outside. Staying here apart from picking up stones, there was literally nothing else to do.
"Let’s clear up the stones at the far end of the valley," Shaliya pointed towards the back and said,’"Though very steep, it might still be passable. If we clear it ourselves and turn it into a sheer cliff, no one would be able to get through."
Du You nodded in agreement, and figured that since they already have idle time on their hands, they could gather more stones. Follow current novᴇls on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝔫𝔢𝔱
There were already a hundred soldiers, so they could now get the hunting dogs. Du You waved his hand and bought ten hunting dogs. Ten seemingly fierce and aggressive dogs appeared in front of Du You.
Hunting Dogs: Level 3
Abilities: Tracing, hunting, delicious
"What does delicious mean? Does it imply eating dog meat?" Du You rolled his eyes, these were hunting dogs! They were not dogs specifically bred for their meat. Well, he couldn’t interfere if someone enjoyed eating them, can’t just let them go to waste when they die.
Maybe, a few hunters could be trained for future use. With nothing to do, Du You, once again entered that previous lifestyle he had. Apart from cultivating, his life was filled with eating and sleeping. Yet, this simple life quickened the advancement of various skills.
The two sisters also experienced a similar lifestyle, it even seems like they were advancing faster than Du You.
Shaliya had reached the level 1 tag on her head, profession as a mage. Others were also the same, it seems that everyone’s strength was gradually recovering. Thus, the magic power protection of the territory was also established.
For the next half of the month, there wasn’t much change in the main structure of the territory. However, the slaves sent out under the help of enough resources, managed to set up the framework of a small town. After Du You gave them their bonds of servitude, they displayed multiple times their usual enthusiasm on the job. Otherwise, the town construction wouldn’t be so quick.
