The matter of rewarding contributions should be given a general explanation without making it too complex. Du You’s foundation is his own citizens, all wholly loyal, so there’s no worry about causing any disturbances.
The main focus is to appease the soldiers among the incoming population, but they generally handle logistics and miscellaneous tasks, so their contributions are relatively minor. Otherwise, these issues alone could give Du You headaches for a while.
After giving a few instructions, the cleaning up of the battlefield was almost complete. Du You continued summoning Demonic Fla Skeletons while discussing with Luo Jia the details of constructing the city here.
"Building a city here with our siege crew isn’t difficult, and the force deploynt isn’t troubleso either. The real challenge is in logistics and the city’s Defensive Barrier," Luo Jia pointed out.
Du You casually said, "These matters, I’ll discuss them with Shaliya later. For now, just prepare for these aspects. This place is crucial, and to avoid infiltration, it’s best to use our own citizens."
Luo Jia slightly nodded, his thoughts aligned with Du You’s.
Even in Luo Jia’s heart, the citizens are rely recruited, not normal humans, so even if there are losses, it’s not a big deal. Perhaps in Luo Jia’s mind, these citizens are almost becoming re numbers.
"Alright, there are still quite a few matters regarding the soldiers’ appeasent and the frontline to attend to. You can go ahead and attend to them," Du You said.
Du You waved his hand to dismiss Luo Jia. Staying here and summoning was boring, so Du You started to open an orb whenever he had the chance.
After all, he had slain quite a few tier-five Quicksand Priests, so they did leave behind so valuable items.
Sand Dune Amulet: Forms an invisible desert storm shield around the body, weakening enemy attacks with an effect of 45, and slightly absorbing water from nearby enemies, potentially causing dehydration. (Blue)
Quicksand Robe: Defense 44, magic resistance 46, increases magic casting success rate by 20%, reduces casting ti by 20%. (Blue)
There were three Sand Dune Amulets in total, just right for three people, with each getting one. Du You swapped his own Mountain River Amulet. Lin Yucha replaced her Mo Dan Amulet, and Lin Yushi, who lacked an amulet, added it directly.
Next were the Quicksand Robes which, though decent in defense and magic resistance, the latter two enhancents were of no use to him. Enhancing the probability of spell success was ant for ordinary Mages, while he was a Dark Soul Sorcerer, a Spellcaster career that hardly ever faces casting failure, since his profession involved pre-creating Skill Runes into Skill Gems.
Unlike regular Mages who need to reconstruct magic each ti, though it seems sowhat rigid, there’s no problem with success rate and speed. Thus, reducing casting ti also proved useless to him.
As most of his spells were already instant, reducing the casting ti held no value.
Yet, it being a blue-tier item, Du You still replaced his Fla Robe with it.
Finally, when Du You opened the orb dropped by Kaya, he laughed. "Haha, this guy’s signature skill was dropped." Du You held a Skill Crystal resembling a stone.
Death Puppet (Tier 4): Using special thods, corpses are controlled and turned into Dried Corpses. The tier of Death Puppet cannot exceed one’s own, and the control number increases by one every five levels. (Level 31, 8 stars)
"That’s a base tier-four skill, truly a good skill. Master, won’t you consider it?" Lin Yucha suggested.
Du You shook his head, "No way. It’s clearly a skill for an Undead Mage, requiring too many transformation Crystal Coins which I can’t afford right now. We would waste our chances to improve. Moreover, it’s useless to ."
Reviewing the small description, Du You gave up. Securing bodies is troubleso, and creating the puppet is even more cumberso, requiring a lot of ti and materials for the ritual. There’s also a chance of failure, which would an all efforts were wasted.
Taking so much ti to produce a puppet with diocre power compared to his Summoned Beasts did not interest Du You. With that ti, it would be better to find a better Summoned Beast and try to get a tier-five Dark Elent Stone to craft a new skill.
So his plan for this skill was to either trade it for sothing he needed or simply keep it, and maybe later nurture power within his own company. After all, Undead Mage has always been an incredibly powerful profession.
With nothing more exciting coming from the orb, Du You opened a chest; the war rewards were here now.
Temporary Task: Resist the invasion of the Quicksand Empire—completed. Would you like to submit?
Without hesitation, Du You chose to submit, and then a chest appeared before him. Initially, it was a large amount of Crystal Coins, about fifty thousand, likely because of the many tier-five opponents faced.
Next were two blueprints, Yellow Sand Tower and Lord’s Mansion.
"A Mage Tower and a blueprint for a Lord’s Mansion, am I about to assemble the foundation for a new domain?" Du You muttered to himself. Previously, gathering foundational blueprints when constructing a domain was tough, but now it seed far too easy. It really left Du You uncertain on how to feel.
However, Du You, with no imdiate plans of building a new domain, stored them away. These items never depreciate in value and are nearly impossible to find on the market.
Little did Du You expect that after the two blueprints, the chest didn’t vanish. The task seed exceptionally well done.
Du You continued reaching into the chest, this ti pulling out a gem.
Storm Crystal: Domain Equipnt
"What? It’s domain equipnt!" It had been a long ti since Du You had acquired new domain equipnt, and unexpectedly, this ti he had secured it. Reading the detailed description, it seed to be a piece of auxiliary domain equipnt that aids in Cultivation.
"We’ll take it back to install in that domain," Du You declared.
Lin Yucha analyzed, "No need for Harry Asteroid, there’s no need for Cultivation there, and Central City doesn’t need it either, as it has stabilized. No need to keep investing. So, it only leaves this place."
"You’re right, we’ll set it up when we return," Du You agreed, his recent acquisition still muddling his thoughts, which led him to instinctively ask Lin Yucha.
