Chapter 953: Chapter 953
"This is a good idea. The Kingdom of Hanhai only has one tier-five, so they’re wary of the Divine Flame Empire’s attitude and definitely won’t fight rashly. Unless it’s a crisis of kingdom collapse, we don’t need to worry about them,"
Lin Yucha quickly spoke while browsing through the material. It seemed that the territory’s rapid development already had a foundation.
Never mind, let’s continue looking at other buildings. Du You opened the next page.
Griffin Nest (Tier Four):

"Not bad, the number of branches of the armed forces we can recruit has indeed increased a lot. Too bad it’s still like the Kennel; we can’t recruit them fully and just have to keep them as materials for combat. Do we have that many griffin eggs to recruit with?"
The full purchase price is too high, but it would be different if we had griffin eggs. We own many domestic and wild dogs in the Kennel area, so there’s no worry there, but griffin eggs could be a problem.
"It shouldn’t be a problem, not only do we have our own griffins laying eggs, but we also collect them from Griffin Canyon. Our territory’s strength is growing stronger, and later training of the troops was done using griffins from Griffin Canyon. There might be tier-five griffins inside Griffin Canyon, but definitely not in large numbers because the periphery is still very safe,"
Alright, Du You saw it too, the people of the territory indeed started to fight the Griffin Canyon. Otherwise, where did that Wind King Griffin come from? Being able to produce a level 39 Wind King Griffin, they definitely caught quite a few Wind King Griffins and their eggs.
Ant Nest (Tier Four):

This time, the three advanced buildings were all biological structures, since normal military structures only include two, which are the Giant Rock Fortress and the Dragon Rider Camp. The Dragon Rider Camp itself is already at tier four and does not require upgrading.
The Ant Nest was the same, the recruitment quantity had increased tremendously. With the new Iron Armor Marching Ants, Du You found after testing that they were worth this price. These new ants were extremely durable, with strong physical defense and attack. However, they lacked range in their attacks and also had relatively slow movement speed.
But in normal large-scale wars, the role of Iron Armor Marching Ants would be enormous. Especially against large numbers of weaker troops like the Murlocs, they could easily hold them off.
After careful analysis, Du You discovered a serious problem. "I did some research, and I found that although these military structures can be upgraded, there are still some issues; no wonder high-level designs are so valuable," he remarked.
Lin Yucha also nodded in agreement, "There is some information about this, but it’s described rather cryptically."
Lin Yushi did not like these matters, and despite having telepathy with her sister, she still found it hard to understand and thus looked at them both with a puzzled expression. If she didn’t understand, she would wait for them to explain.
Du You added, "These military structures can indeed be advanced, but the materials required are too many and too troublesome. Moreover, each advancement consumes a lot of time and materials, some of which are not worth the loss."
Yes, after such a long time of collecting, these few military structures had finally reached tier four with difficulty. Should they advance to tier five, the costs would definitely be even greater, which truly seemed a bit wasteful.
"Moreover, these military buildings do not include high-level troops. To acquire high-level troops, one still needs to find a way to purchase or capture them and then deploy them to form them. This is the biggest problem," he explained.
Lin Yucha started speaking, "This issue aside, most importantly, these self-made troops are overpriced and the quality itself is not very good, severely affecting the overall strength of the troops in our territory."
Indeed, not only the current upgraded military structures but also using high-level military structures encounter the same issue. Any troops constructed by oneself will have this problem. No wonder the blueprints for those high-level military buildings are so precious; everyone thinks they are reasonably priced for a reason.
Du You nodded slowly; after his experimentation, he had realized that these manufactured troops, while not inferior in price to regular troops, were not of as high a level.
Their skills also lacked in many areas, not only in quantity but in terms of quality and basic strength as well. This might be related to the materials chosen initially.
If these manufactured troops and those originally included with the blueprints were to battle side by side, the same type and level of the original troops would undoubtedly win. If troops advanced to the next level with new same-type troops, this influence would be even greater. It might even witness a situation where original troops could fight against two or more of the same type.
It had not been detected before, but as the buildings were continuously upgraded, and with the acquisition of new territories and new military structures, Du You finally noticed this problem.
This was a problem only the Lord himself could discern; no one else would inform him. Fortunately, it was not too late, as in this world, the way these military structures came about wasn’t too different.
"Forget it, forget about these issues for now. Later on, we’ll just bring in some new military structures. Besides, without these upgraded military structures, our troop strength would not have increased so quickly. We are still far from having our forces fully staffed," he concluded.
Thinking it over, the two sisters agreed, so they stopped bothering about this matter. Everyone continued to examine data, observing various changes to their territory. While the surface-level changes were not significant, the details varied substantially. Moreover, after such an extended period, the City of Mountains had established cooperative relationships with many territories, and it can be said that its influence was continuously expanding.
If some day it bursts forth, the experience of the territory will definitely increase significantly.
