Chapter 86 - 85: Live Show (Please follow and support!)_1
The description for the construction of the watchtower was somewhat rudimentary, so Mu Yuan immediately logged onto the all-encompassing Tai Xuan Forum to search for more information.
He found an answer quickly.
"Upon the construction of the watchtower, the Lord will be able to open an overhead view in that area, revealing the map. Not only that... within the viewing range of the watchtower, you will also be able to construct Miracle Buildings."
This was tantamount to establishing a small sub-base.
Even if its coverage area is small and unexpandable, its value is immeasurable.
Many senior lords wish to build a watchtower at an important outpost in the wilderness, but alas! These blueprints are hard to come by. Even if they are available for redemption on the Tai Xuan Covenant, the price is high and... limited purchases are allowed.
...
This snake man habitat, though tribe-level and fairly advanced, was similar to the previous two goblin camps. It was rife with various adult-only scenes, and there were some deformed remains in the cellars. It seemed that the snake man tribe frequently held sacrifices for the Orochi.
Yes, bloody sacrifices.
The little monsters they caught, such as goblins, could serve as slaves, fertilizers, and sacrificial offerings. It could be said that they used them in various ways.
Having seen a lot, Mu Yuan was basically immune to these sights.
Yes, only when viewed from afar through the Battle Falcon's vision.
If he descends in consciousness and physically enters this tribe, the remains scattered across the ground and the pungent smell of blood and guts that hit his face would still make him feel sick.
He would need to get used to it gradually.
He couldn't build the watchtower for now, and even if he could, Mu Yuan wouldn't build it before the trial. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
He spent over an hour dismantling the entire snake man tribe inside and out, and also picking almost all the ripe snake scale fruits.
— The Skeleton Warriors were merely troops, their clumsy handling inevitably led to some losses during the picking process.
He then did some simple cleaning — dead bodies were either burned or thrown into the fertile soil of the orchard, while bigger elite creatures like the 'Jet Poisonous Dragon' were given to Duo Lai as a pre-meal snack... but humanoid creatures were left alone. We had to have some principles otherwise, how would we handle being banished by the Great God of censorship?
After cleaning up, Mu Yuan left behind a small squad of Skeleton Warriors and two Hurricane War Hawks to temporarily guard the fruit forest, watching for any monsters that might covet the place.
Then he... led his sizeable force on a slow march back home.
Since they didn't need to carry any materials — all were stored in Duo Lai's stomach — their return journey was much faster than the trip there. However, after about a half, Dead Bone noticed that it was still early and thought that going straight back would be a waste of time. So, he took half of the troops to start sweeping the swamp.
Due to the existence of the snake man tribe, the exploration level of this swamp area was very low previously. Now it was certainly time to thoroughly explore it.
Dead Bone went to clear up the area, Duo Lai continued to transport the materials back, and Great Lord Shepherd remained in the territory.
Everyone was busy.
"Go and gather some information on the forum. Let's see what the other newcomers are doing to see if there's anything I missed."
As soon as he opened the forum, he saw a post marked 'hot'.
It was a live stream post from a new Lord.
"A live stream for a lord's expedition? This is rare indeed, no wonder the heat has shot up so high."
The expedition has yet to commence, but it seems like the behind-the-scenes team of the live stream has been warming up the audience, bringing in a considerable number of old and new players.
"I heard a newcomer is planning an expedition against a large monster camp? That's pretty brave!"
"Not gonna lie, this might be a suicide mission. Going against a large camp barely twenty days into the game? Aren't they afraid of losing their main force and risking an accident in the Lord Trial?"
"You make a good point, but if this youngster dares to start a live stream, they must be pretty confident, right?"
"Live streaming? This is just a task from the White Shark Group."
"Indeed, it's a requirement from the White Shark Group. But, this 'Tuna' player is no average Joe. He's a descendant of the White Shark Group's top executive and is being promoted as the poster boy for this Lord Trial. They are aiming to rank high and make a name for the White Shark Group. They've invested quite a bit into this."
The expedition still hasn't started. Yet, White Shark has already invited a well-known veteran player, 'Master Ma', to be a guest in the live streaming room, teamed up with a random female player.
Master Ma cleared his throat and said, "From the barrages, we can see everyone is really fired up and very keen to see whether our Tuna player can conquer the large monster camp. As a master tactician, Master Ma wants to give a word of advice to all new lord players - do not emulate this expedition."
"The strategy guide suggests that all newcomers should clear as many monsters as possible around their territories before the Lord Trial arrives. However, by monsters, it refers to individual monster groups and not strong monster camps. These kinds of camps often have watchtowers, ranged troops, traps, and many disadvantages for the attacker. Especially since the Lord Trial is upon us, taking risks to attack monster camps is not advisable, but..."
Master Ma changes his tone, "If the new lords themselves have an incredibly strong force, and their staff team assesses that they can securely take down the large monster camp, then...gathering a bit more foundation before the trials is not a bad idea. Obviously, our Tuna player has made adequate preparations."
The live stream screen changes, showing a view of towering mountains and dense forests in the audience's sight.
This is likely the perspective of some aerial reconnaissance tool, peering down at a monster camp from afar.
Some kobolds are weak, armed with wooden spears and shabby equipment. However, some are equipped with fine short swords and shields, some even holding crossbows, standing high atop watchtowers, awaiting invader's execution.
Most novice players are seeing this type of monster camp for the first time, which draws them into a cold thrill. Numerous "Hiss~" "Hiss~" "Hiss~" barrage ensues, making Mu Yuan think he has returned to the Snake Man Tribe.
At this point, Lord Tuna has already begun leading his troops into battle.
There's a flurry of swords, arrows raining down, even massive fireballs flying about, exploding like powerful grenades.
It sends shivers down the spines of many newcomers, but the Tuna player, worthy of being the promotional stand-in for the White Shark Group, leads various troop types with firm tactics.
During the battle, although the player himself encountered several mini-crises and lost dozens of Three-Star Soldiers, they still managed to conquer the monster camp.
"Impressive."
After the live stream ends, countless newcomers on the forum are still debating intensely. Even the small group of new lords from Baijiang Sicheng are discussing it hotly.
Liver Emperor: "I'm not playing hard enough!"
Mr. Tan: "If there were monster camps around, I'd be up to it too. But I have to admit, this guy is indeed awesome. @Ordinary Player, what are your thoughts?"
This is Mu Yuan's group nickname.
He connects to the fourth Hurricane War Hawk, looking down at the wrecked land, filled with many large ravines, gigantic pits, and huge palm prints. He then glances at the screenshot of the Kobold Camp in the live stream.
He praised, "You're right, it's indeed impressive."
