Chapter 649: Chapter 649

After quickly checking his panel, Du You lay down and fell asleep. The two sisters quietly came in, looking at Du You with a touch of pity, and then quietly left. For the sake of power upgrade, Du You had indeed been working very hard.

The next day, Du You woke up early but not of his own accord; he was awoken by the noise.

As soon as he stepped outside, Du You saw hordes of goblins assaulting the camp. "What’s happening? Why are they out again?"

"Lord, the number of goblins today has significantly decreased. It seems that the harm inflicted on them yesterday was severe. Even if it’s just us soldiers defending, we should be able to hold up," said a guard.

Without a definite refute, Du You nodded and took a look around. Indeed, the number of goblins had dwindled substantially.

If he took part in the fight, the situation would definitely lighten. It was frustrating, he had to personally take part in the camp’s development until it reaches a certain level.

If it weren’t for his timely arrival this time, the camp would definitely have suffered heavy losses.

However, he was about to join the fight when he suddenly stopped. The reason was that there was a prompt on the panel. Du You opened it to see a lot of plunder success notifications.

He had reason due to dead sleep, he hadn’t heard of it, now that he was awake, he had heard it.

That’s when Du You remembered that his camp’s attribute was looting. The soldiers are able to plunder resources from the enemies they kill. As his eyes scrolled down the panel, he saw that although many goblins had to be killed to successfully plunder once, his soldiers had managed to obtain white crystal coins. Indeed, those used to be obtainable only if the professionals killed the enemies themselves.

These white crystal coins would directly appear in the warehouse of the Lord’s Mansion within the territory, not on the soldiers themselves.

Also, the white crystal coins are not exclusive coins and can only be spent externally, but that’s still a new source of wealth. Since Du You did not control the Derived World, he had to rely on other methods to amass wealth.

He didn’t expect that now he had the ability to loot. The white crystal coins looted were enough to produce some tier one soldiers. "So, this is the plundering ability. If used well, it might prove to be very strong."

Du You pondered for a moment, then called the sisters over to show them.

Lin Yucha said thoughtfully, "If killing soldiers only yields white crystal coins, would destroying buildings provide us with construction materials like timber and stone? If so, demolishing some high-level buildings might even yield materials that are usually hard to come by."

Du You’s eyes lit up. If that were the case, it would be much easier to collect materials and upgrade buildings in his territory. In the past, collecting materials required a great deal of manpower, resources, and time.

"Yes, not necessarily high-level buildings, it could also be buildings that are symbolic."

What the territory needed varied quite a bit from the real world. Since most of the territory’s resources evolved from world forces, things and people with special influences were more important.

This is why Du You said that demolishing buildings with special meanings might yield special materials. It’s not that these buildings contain special materials, but the buildings are too famous.

After such a building is destroyed, its impact on the society and the world would be enormous, causing more fluctuations in world forces. These fluctuations are the key to obtaining crystal coins and supplies.

With this strategy in mind, Du You’s army eventually became a full-scale demolition crew. They didn’t have to annihilate the enemy, but they had to completely destroy all buildings. Even cities captured in battle would be razed, from the surface to the ground below. This made Du You’s army a love-hate presence in this world.

Although they executed their missions immaculately and were generally successful, this knack for demolition also drastically diminished the spoils of war.

There were fewer goblins that day and after just two hours, no more appeared. The white crystal coins looted from them were more than enough to create a large team of tier one soldiers.

"It’s a pity that the goblins are of such a low level, otherwise we could have looted some red crystal coins."

These red crystal coins were of no use to Du You now but they would be of great use for the territory. After acquiring the looting attribute, his territory now had the potential for a ’fight for supply’ war strategy.

Temporary Mission: Wipe out the Goblin Allied Forces complete.

Du You opened his panel and found another task completed. Behind it was a chest, even green in color.

"No wonder people constantly look for all sorts of missions. It must be their only way to obtain crystal coins when they don’t have the ability to kill large numbers of creatures of the same level." The source of this content ɪs 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⚑𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚⚑𝙣𝙚𝙩

Du You opened the chest. Perhaps because the goblins were too weak, the chest didn’t contain many crystal coins. There were only a hundred exclusive green crystal coins. If he had to rely on such a slow pace to obtain crystal coins, he wondered when he could finally acquire an aura skill. No wonder other people’s levels were increasing so slowly and their skill numbers were also limited.

Depend on tasks for self-improvement, it is indeed somewhat unbearable.

Fortunately, besides the green crystal coins, the chest also gave Du You a great item.

Ice Tower Blueprint (Tier Three, Permanent): Allows for the construction of an Ice Tower in the territory.

Finally, another blueprint appeared, and it was a Tier Three defense building blueprint, no doubt. This was great news since his territory was on the verge of reaching Tier Three. Now he had a Tier Three blueprint to use.

Once he constructed these Tier Three defense buildings, future goblin attacks or even invasions from the Kingdom of Hanhai would have to think twice. With enough Tier Three Ice Towers, apart from special situations, it would be difficult even for a Tier Four individual to approach his territory without any damages.

If the Kingdom of Hanhai dared to send a Tier Four expert, it would start a war between the two nations. Du You believed that Anlute wouldn’t just stand by without intervening. Unless the people of the Sea Kingdom were fools, they would definitely think long and hard.

Once he installed loads of Tier Three Ice Towers, Du You’s territory could finally stand its ground in this world. Given his current status as a count, without proper justification the empire could not simply supress him.

The sacredness of the nobility’s private property could not be violated. If the Empire forcefully tried to seize Du You’s alchemical goods, the other nobles would surely band together in opposition. These Ice Towers, in Du You’s outward representations, were alchemical items.
