The spinning wheel seemed to be related to the tailoring industry.

These were far off for Fang Hao, so he didn’t hurry to craft them.

[Forge Furnace: Stone 12, Clay 5.]

(Description: Let the furnace burn, where metal can be smelted into metal blocks.)

Metal blocks!

Seeing the introduction, Fang Hao was elated.

Iron ingots were the necessary materials for making iron plates, Fang Hao has always been keen on obtaining an iron block method.

Unexpectedly, it was not synthesized by blueprint, but it needed to be smelted in a forge.

After looking at its characteristics, he immediately chose an empty spot on the left side of the Lord’s hut to start constructing.

Then, a forge furnace built from stone and clay was completed.

[Forge Furnace]

[Raw Material: Iron 5]

[Product: Cast Iron Blocks (15 minutes required)]

(Description: You can obtain processed metal objects by heating, it is used for manufacturing and alchemy materials.)

Aha!

So that’s how to get the cast iron blocks.

Fang Hao made five more forges.

“Hey, you guys will be in charge of making the forges from now on.” Fang Hao randomly selected a few lucky skeletons to take care of the forges.

It takes 5 minutes for each cast iron block to be made in the forge, and Fang Hao cannot just stand there watching, so he had to leave it to the skeletons to operate.

The stopped skeleton stiffly turned around.

It looked at the forge and went to the warehouse to put in the iron ore.

Seeing that the skeletons could properly use the forge, Fang Hao felt relieved,

And continued to look at the [Advanced Hero Contract (Blue)].

[Advanced Hero Contract (Blue)]

(Description: An advanced slave contract that can be signed with the highest blue hero contract.)

He already had two slave contracts.

This time, he actually got the hero contract, which can be signed with a blue hero.

It’s pretty good.

He saved the contract in the Book of Lords, not knowing when it might come in handy.

The remaining items had all appeared before.

Fang Hao knew their use.

After checking the properties of all the items,

Fang Hao went to the ranch area.

Yesterday, after taking in the Pigmen Village as a vassal village, he unlocked the blueprint of the stables.

After building it, he could raise horses in the stables.

Choosing a suitable place, he began to build.

[Level 1 Stable: Wood 720, Stone 4.50, Straw 350, Hemp Rope 180.]

(Description: Used for the breeding and training of horses.)

After building the stables, Fang Hao continued to upgrade them.

Due to the need for bricks at level 4, he could only upgrade the stable to level 3 for now.

The territory is currently divided into three areas.

The city center, military district, and breeding district.

The city center includes the Lord’s Hut, Warehouse, Guardhouse, Viscera Museum, and the recently built Forge.

The military district has the Underground Cemetery, Burial Grounds, Corridor of the Dead, and the Skeleton Conversion Field.

The breeding district has the Ranch, Spiritual Field, and Stables.

All three districts are placed in different locations, they do not interfere with each other.

Fang Hao’s territory is a little different from others’ territories.

Other races need to build residential houses for farmers and soldiers, most of the space in their territory would be occupied by civilian buildings.

But Fang Hao didn’t need to do this, there were only he and Eira in the territory, they couldn’t even fill one Lord’s Hut.

Hero Nelson lived in the Viscera Museum and needed no separate dwelling place.

So, even though he had these buildings, most of the territory was still empty, which looked exceptionally barren.

Having finished all these, Eira had cooked the meal and was calling Fang Hao to eat.

While eating, Fang Hao checked the regional channel again.

He wanted to see everyone’s progress.

“How’s that guy who got attacked yesterday doing? I haven’t heard from him all day.”

“I guess things don’t look promising. If my territory were destroyed one day, I wouldn’t be surprised either.”

“Maybe I should buy some weapons from Fang Hao later, to increase my defense.”

Although they had survived the beastly blood boil, their safety hadn’t improved at all.

On the contrary, with the disappearance of the protective shield, more and more territories were being discovered by the local forces and were being obliterated.

For a while, not only did the weapons in Fang Hao’s hands sell like hotcakes, but even the meats that were difficult to sell a few days ago also started selling well.

“Yesterday, a dozen or so refugees came to my territory seeking to join.”

“Damn, what good luck, free labor.”

“What good luck, my ass! These folks don’t seem like refugees at all, more like a gang of bandits. I only have a little over ten village militiamen, I have a bad feeling about this.”

“Why’d you let them join then? Aren’t you afraid they’ll slaughter you?”

“I regret it too. I didn’t realize it at the time. I need to get more Soul Crystals to recruit more soldiers, just in case.”

Seeing this, Fang Hao remembered the Pigmen Village he had taken in yesterday.

This is not a game.

The digitization of the world only makes it easier for the Lords who have crossed over to understand this world.

The native inhabitants are no less intelligent than you, and even understand this world better than you do.

Therefore, contracts like the Slave Contract that restricts the other party are especially important.

At least after the contract is signed, they won’t make harmful decisions.

He quickly finished his meal.

Many Lords privately messaged Fang Hao, asking for custom-made iron axes, iron spears, and other weapons and tools.

Fang Hao made some directly and put them up for sale to them.

Only when everyone was generally well-off could he, as a merchant, exchange for better and rarer resources.

Otherwise, if everyone was poor except him, all he could exchange for would be common resources like stones and wood.

Next, Fang Hao had to deal with his own business.

Today, his plan was to explore the second map he got: the Ogre base.

He opened the map on the Book of Lords to check the exact location.

The base was to the west of his territory, which was the direction of the Lost Wooden Spirit he had encountered before.

It was just further away.

After getting everything sorted, Fang Hao went straight back to his room.

After lying down on his bed, he used supreme-ruler’s Presence to enter one of the skeleton cavalrymen.

[supreme-ruler’s Presence target, Skeleton Scout, Compatibility 65%.]

This time Fang Hao took a Skeleton Giant Bat with him and headed towards the Ogre base.

With a clatter of hooves, he galloped all the way.

He didn’t pay any mind to the beasts he encountered along the way, he just rushed straight towards his destination.

Two hours later.

As he neared the Ogre base, he pulled the reins and halted the skeleton horse.

This place was mainly composed of rugged terrain, surrounded by mountains, forming a kind of depression in the landscape.

From afar, he could see the Ogre base.

Chaotic buildings, and huge figures moving around.

Fang Hao needed information, so he used supreme-ruler’s Presence again to change targets.

He transferred to the Skeleton Giant Bat on the horse’s back.

He launched into the air, flying towards the Ogre’s base.

From a bird’s-eye view, he could get a clear picture of the entire base.

The base was built against a mountainside, and lacked any form of defensive facilities like walls.

Apart from the crude and decaying tents, there were bones strewn on the ground and various skulls impaled on stakes.

[Ogre (Tier 7)]

Ogres, with their corpulent and enormous figure, stood about three meters tall. They only wore a piece of loincloth and wielded a giant mace.

They were Tier 7 troops.

Perched on the mountain ridge, the Skeleton Giant Bat counted the number of enemies.

The headcount was not small, there were around fifty Ogres.

Once he had finished tallying the count, Fang Hao didn’t linger. He flew back to the side of the skeleton cavalryman and ordered him to return to the territory..
