Continuing to study the wild boar corpse.

There is still a chance to look over the body before it gets butchered.

Once it’s butchered, meat and materials are separated automatically, and the parts that can’t be eaten will vanish on their own.

The wound is deep, indicating that the person who killed the wild boar was very strong.

Yet, a human lord should not possess such strength.

It must be the work of his soldiers.

Among the splinters of the boar’s broken tusk, a red hair has been found.

This hair is thicker and stiffer than a human’s, looking similar to the boar’s fur.

“Could he be of a special faction, or have special soldiers?” Fang Hao frowned and muttered, but a sense of unease lingered in his heart.

It doesn’t feel like a simple mutual aid agreement.

…

Night falls

Before the trees to the east,

A torchlight illuminates the area.

Zhuang Hong is holding a torch, waiting for the arrival of the Lord from afar.

There are more than just him in the forest, nearby in the shrubs, nearly 2,000 beast clan warriors are hidden.

“Zhuang Hong, it seems your plan didn’t work.” Orc Kedo spoke from the side.

Zhuang Hong had proposed a plan, to lure the Lord, who is under protection, out and kill him.

The low-ranking skeletons are completely incapable of communication.

They killed a wild boar, had Zhuang Hong write a letter to meet, and delivered it to the hands of the opposing Lord.

Agreeing to meet here.

But the sky is getting dark, and the opposing lord has not yet shown up.

“Let’s wait a little longer, he should come.” Zhuang Hong insisted, undeterred.

If his plan were to fail, with Kedo’s temperament, he would surely punish him.

Even the simple whipping punishment of the Orcs would be too much for him to bear.

Just then, as the two were talking,

A group of people walked out from the territory in the distance.

Under the bright moonlight, they could see the figure of the other party.

“They’re here, you all hide.” Zhuang Hong urged.

Kedo also noticed the people coming from afar, waved his hand, and had all the Orcs hide.

Once the other party is killed, the protection will disappear.

Soon, under Zhuang Hong’s gaze,

A man, completely wrapped in clothes, approached.

Behind him were two skeletons dressed in leather, wielding swords and shields.

Zhuang Hong squinted, surprised at the opposing iron sword, but also greedy for it.

“Brother, you finally made it.” Zhuang Hong greeted warmly.

Fang Hao looked at Zhuang Hong and spoke in a low voice: “Hmm, how should I address you?”

His voice was hoarse and low, sounding very uncomfortable.

“Zhuang Hong, what about you, brother?” Zhuang Hong stepped forward to greet.

“Who I am isn’t important, where are the people you’ve hidden? You can have them come out now.” Fang Hao spoke directly.

There was still a little uncertainty in his heart before.

Seeing Zhuang Hong standing alone here, he was certain of the other party’s ill-intention.

Who would dare to stand here alone?

Even Fang Hao wouldn’t dare to stand here in the night, just to wait for someone purely.

“What do you mean?”

“Stop pretending, I’m already here, there’s no need for you to keep up the act.” Fang Hao continued.

Whoosh!

Just then, a gust of wind was heard.

A cold light flew out from the bushes next to them.

Crack! Bang!

With a crisp sound, an iron knife pierced through Fang Hao’s body and nailed him to the tree behind him.

At the same moment, a large group of Orcs rushed out, slaughtering the two skeleton soldiers with their knives.

“Hmph! A smart fool, he guessed there was an ambush, but still dared to come.” Kedo sneered as he walked out from the bushes.

The Gnoll Clan Leader, courteously took the hatchet that was nailed to the trunk and respectfully handed it to Kedo.

He didn’t forget to flatter, “Lord Kedo, you’re amazing, killing him with one move.”

“Shut up with your nonsense.” Kedo snapped angrily.

The Gnoll Clan Leader smiled obsequiously, “Yes, yes, I shouldn’t talk nonsense.”

Kedo, who was initially immersed in the joy of victory, suddenly became serious.

The protective dome around the distant territory hadn’t disappeared, the skeletons working outside also began to retreat.

They stopped their work and returned to the territory.

“What’s going on!” Kedo’s voice dropped a few degrees colder.

The Gnoll who had been chattering nonstop shrank back, shutting his mouth, and silently retreated to one side.

Zhuang Hong, expression solemn, walked up, uncovered the corpse and carefully examined the body pierced by a battle sword.

Upon seeing the face, Zhuang Hong’s complexion took a drastic turn.

“Lord Kedo, look.”

Kedo and the Orcs around him looked over.

This was no human clan lord, but just like the other two skeleton foot soldiers, it was a skeletal figure, stuffed with straw to make it look plump.

“We’ve been fooled. Let’s go, we’ll head back to camp, and arrange for guards to stand by the entrance tomorrow,” Kedo ordered.

It was unknown how they had used skeletons to probe.

But clearly, they hadn’t lost their lives.

They started to gather their forces and hid inside a protective shield, leaving the Orcs helpless against them.

They could only go back to camp and wait for other opportunities tomorrow.

The Beasts lit their torches and began to retreat in large groups.

And behind them, a small skeleton followed the light of their torches from a distance.

…

Late at night.

Fang Hao sat up from his bed.

With a rub of his temple, he looked slightly weary.

He had been tailing the retreating Orcs and had confirmed that their destination was the Gnoll’s campsite.

At the same time, he was also aware that their plan this time had not succeeded.

The Orcs surely wouldn’t let him off, and conversely, Fang Hao wouldn’t allow such a dangerous, uncontrollable group to exist near him.

He walked out of the room and lit a bonfire.

He started to make tools by the firelight.

[Metal Parts: Metal 1.]

Create!

[Triggered Hundred-fold Amplification, received Metal Parts 101.]

[light Crossbow: Wood 5, Iron 2, Metal Parts 3.]

He directly selected 20.

[Triggered Hundred-fold Amplification, received Light Crossbows 2020.]

[Light Crossbow (Green)]

[Category: Dual Handed Distance]

[Damage: Second Level Damage]

(Description: Handy and convenient light crossbow.)

He picked a skeleton to test shoot.

It functioned fine, no issues at all.

[Bone Arrow: Wood 1, Beast Bone 2.]

Bone Arrows are consumables.

He selected 100.

[Triggered Hundred-fold Amplification, received Bone Arrows 10100.]

In an instant, the weapons on the empty field formed a small mountain.

“Load the Bone Arrows on the carts, all working skeletons pick up the light crossbows,” Fang Hao shouted the order.

A few carts were pushed over, bundles of Bone Arrows were loaded onto the cart.

The working skeletons cast aside their tools and picked up the light crossbows beside them.

Meanwhile, he inspected all the skeleton foot soldiers’ weapons and armor, selected a few skeletons, and swapped their shields and armor.

Everything was ready.

He returned to his room, laid down and cast ‘God’s Presence’.

The next second, a ghastly blue flame rose from a skeleton foot soldier’s chest.

“Advance.” The ghostly flame flickered as Fang Hao issued the command.

The White Bone Army left their camp, marching in the direction of the Goblin’s camp.

…

The Gnoll’s camp.

The Gnoll’s houses could hardly accommodate the bulky Orcs.

In the centre of the clearing, crude Beast Skin tents were set up.

Over 2000 robust Orcs gathered at the central space of the camp, having their dinner.

They had been busy since earlier trying to lure and kill Fang Hao, but they ended up returning fruitlessly.

Inside the Clan Leader’s hall.

Kedo, the Orc, and Zhuang Hong were eating meat from their plates.

Facing the unusually sticky meat soup, Zhuang Hong had some difficulty swallowing.

“Lord Kedo, although we failed this time, it also proves the feasibility of this plan. If we come across other human clan lords, we’ll surely succeed.” Zhuang Hong put down the soup and spoke softly.

Kedo remained silent, while the Gnoll Clan Leader gave Zhuang Hong a strange look.

The Beast Clan respected strength above all. It was common to see infighting among their own kind.

However, it was rare to see someone like Zhuang Hong such keen on providing ideas to foreign races and plotting against his own kind.
