Building the Strongest Undead Empire from Scratch

[Hamburger]: "How many iron ingots do you have right now? Could you lend me a thousand for now?"

Meanwhile, Sophie, who was daydreaming, received Alex's message and was pleasantly surprised. "Ah! Big Shot actually messaged me first!"

Is Big Shot just a thousand short of upgrading to a town?

Sophie checked her Warehouse for iron ingots. With the increasing number of dwarves, the production of iron ingots naturally increased.

Now, Sophie's furnace could produce up to eight hundred iron ingots a day (since currently, the dwarves could only mine eight hundred unprocessed iron ores daily).

Sophie had unlocked her furnace on the second day, and now on the fifth day, she had produced just under three thousand iron ingots in total. During this time, she had used some to buy elite food and various supplies, leaving only seven hundred in her Warehouse.

Sophie's furnace efficiency could smelt three thousand iron ingots a day, and with the two thousand unprocessed ores at Alex's place, plus Sophie's daily production of eight hundred, she could smelt them all by evening.

This was Big Shot's only request to her so far; if she refused, Sophie felt that all her previous efforts to please Hamburger would have been in vain. Absolutely not!

After calculating, Sophie immediately replied to Alex.

[QuartzStriker]: "Big Shot, I don't have enough iron ingots in my Warehouse right now, but I'll send you all the remaining ones by tonight!"

Alex didn't expect Sophie to be so accommodating and agreed right away.

[Hamburger]: "Thanks a lot!"

[QuartzStriker]: "Big Shot, you don't need to be polite with me!"

Alex didn't reply to Sophie again. She leisurely walked around the yard, practicing her control over fire magic. Small fireballs appeared on her fingertips, tossed back and forth like a baseball.

[Your troops have successfully killed a lv6 Hobgoblin, gaining sixty experience points.]

[Your troops have successfully killed a lv6 Red Blood Gorilla, gaining sixty experience points.]

!!!

Hobgoblin? Alex was surprised to encounter a Hobgoblin here. Wait, Red Blood Gorilla... isn't that the troop of the Lord named [King Kong]?

That's the lord near Alex's castle whose troops were previously killed by Arthur, causing that lord to curse loudly in the World Chat.

How come the messages about killing a Hobgoblin and a Red Blood Gorilla came at the same time? Could it be...

Meanwhile, in the unfortunate King Kong's castle, Chi-Chi looked at the system's notifications and was already getting furious.

[Your lv6 Red Blood Gorilla has been killed by a lv7 Hobgoblin!]

[Your lv5 Red Blood Gorilla has been killed by an enemy Lord!]

Chi-Chi's mentality was breaking down. Red Blood Gorillas could only summon two per day, and by today, the fifth day, there were only ten in total. Previously, four were killed by an unknown Lord, and now two more had died, leaving only the last four.

Chi-Chi, who just started ninth grade this year, unlike other girls who liked various cosmetics, chasing celebrities, or discussing which male classmate was handsome, had always been a fan of the anime character Goku.

When the game descended into the real world, Chi-Chi was still sleeping at home. So, she did nothing during the six hours of preparation time and came to this Eldoria continent wearing a cartoon pajama.

After arriving, Chi-Chi wanted to name her castle after Goku. However, she found these names were already taken by other Lords. Eventually, she noticed her summoned Red Blood Gorillas resembled King Kong, so she named her castle after King Kong.

"Damn it, it must be that Lord again, so annoying. What the heck is a Hobgoblin?"

Chi-Chi had always been very cautious, especially at night, never encountering any high-level monsters, which made her think her starting location was relatively safe.

Since the last time another Lord killed four of her Red Blood Gorillas, Chi-Chi started sending her troops out in turns to hunt, two monkeys per team. Unfortunately, two of the Red Blood Gorillas outside died today.

Chi-Chi looked at the last four Red Blood Gorillas in her castle, one of which was lucky enough to have survived from the first day and had reached lv7.

When Chi-Chi's castle was upgraded to lv3, she drew a piece of equipment that Alex had been longing for—the ability to fly by summoning a cloud that one could stand on and fly in the sky. Chi-Chi called it the Flying Nimbus.

"Let's go, time for revenge. A lv7 Hobgoblin dares to kill my troops!"

Chi-Chi immediately led the four Red Blood Gorillas towards the direction where the other two had died. With one lv7 and the rest lv6, Chi-Chi didn't believe they couldn't kill a single lv7 Hobgoblin.

Chi-Chi guessed that the Hobgoblin must be fighting with that Lord's troops by now. When both sides were weakened, she would take advantage, avenging her troops and letting that Lord know she was not to be trifled with!

Chi-Chi summoned the Flying Nimbus, stepped on it, and took off, with the four Red Blood Gorillas huffing and puffing behind her.

...

[Your troops have killed a lv7 Hobgoblin, gaining seventy experience points.]

[Your troops have killed a lv5 Hobgoblin, gaining fifty experience points.]

The system continuously sent messages about killing Hobgoblins, and Alex realized that the appearance of Hobgoblins was no coincidence; her troops were likely fighting a large group of them.

As for the unfortunate Lord's troops that were mistakenly killed, well, that's just bad luck for him.

Alex, now intrigued, knew that in this world, Hobgoblins were much richer than Goblins, not just stronger. Simply put, Hobgoblins were the pro max version of Goblins.

Alex thought about capturing a live Hobgoblin to gather some intelligence, especially since she forgot to leave a couple of Goblins alive last time to ask about the power distribution on Eldoria continent.

And whether this game world was actually spherical, or perhaps it was indeed flat.

Wait, why am I focusing on this?

Alex called over a gargoyle, jumped onto its back, and had it carry her to the battlefield. Riding a dragon would have been cooler, but Arthur was hardly ever around, and it might even be Arthur fighting those Hobgoblins.

Her undead had killed a Red Blood Gorilla, and Alex remembered that Lord's castle was to the south of hers, seemingly closer to the original Goblin tribe than Alex's location.

Alex immediately directed the gargoyle to fly south.
