Chapter 212: Chapter 134: New Undead NPC —— rchant
Day 43 of the Apocalypse.
Zhou Bai also got up early in the morning.
During the days away from Hope Village, since she was not in the territory, the number of Beastman NPCs and Undead NPCs in the territory did not increase.
In fact, there are now over a hundred NPCs in the territory, costing over 100 Gold Coins each month.
Fortunately, the NPCs currently in the territory are worth the price.
However, considering the current developnt of the territory, Zhou Bai decided that the summoning of NPCs would depend on the needs of the territory, summoning only if necessary, and foregoing otherwise.
Heroic Spirit Hall.
“Dear Host, it has been detected that your hires, Johnson, Heller, Ruskin, Ward… and others have reached the end of their one-month employnt period. Would you like to continue employing them? (Before continuing, a day off will be given.)”
“Note: As the Lord is not within the territory, the duration will be extended.”
Looking at the notification, Zhou Bai did not hesitate to choose yes.
Before she left for Bengala Town from Hope Village, she had received this notification and had agreed without hesitation. After inquiring with Bayer and the others, none of the Undead NPCs wanted to return to the Undead Kingdom.
According to them, the Undead in the Undead Kingdom all eagerly wanted to leave. Having disappeared for a month, if they suddenly returned, it might attract higher-level Undead, and it could be dangerous.
To avoid trouble, they preferred not to go back.
After Zhou Bai made her selections, the screen continued with notifications.
“Dear Host, would you like to begin summoning?”
“Yes.”
Following that, a shadow began to appear on the altar.
After viewing the information about the shadow, Zhou Bai saw it was a Level 13 rcenary, yet decided not to summon, then another appeared on the altar.
“Na: Vigil”
“Race: Undead (Human)”
“Level: lv.19”
“Identity: Resident of Undead Kingdom”
“Profession: Undead Mage, rchant”
“Life Value: 1900/1900”
“Magic Value: 1900/1900”
“Physical Value: 1900/1900”
“Attributes: Constitution (19/20), Intelligence (20/20), Agility (18/20), Defense (17/20)”
“Talent: rchant”
“Price: 1 Gold Coin/month”
rchant?
Zhou Bai’s eyes lit up.
She rembered that the grocery store in the territory was indeed in need of a rchant!
“Do you wish to employ Undead Mage・rchant・Vigil for 1 Gold Coin per month?”
“Yes.”
The next mont, the shadow turned into a solid form.
When Vigil saw Zhou Bai, the newly appointed rchant stared at her, seemingly still unable to react.
Zhou Bai, upon seeing him, also noticed that he seed to have so injuries.
Specifically, his magic robe was in tatters, and he was holding a magic wand, clearly indicating he was in a combat state.
Was he summoned in the middle of a battle?
Zhou Bai silently speculated.
After a mont of daze, Vigil, noticing the information about being hired by Hope Village, realized that he had been “rescued,” and that this Lord before him was his new employer.
The world of Humans!
How nostalgic!
“Hello, Lord, I am rchant Vigil. I am very pleased to accept your employnt.” Coming from that dark world, it really feels great!
“How did you end up like this?” Zhou Bai asked, genuinely curious.
Listening to her, Vigil’s expression paused for a mont, then he helplessly replied, “Fell into a… no, I made so money off so Undead, and they felt it was not worth it and wanted their money back. I refused, so we ended up fighting.”
As if he would ever give the money back once it was in his pocket!
Zhou Bai: “…”
“——He really is a rchant after all!”
Imdiately following that, Zhou Bai continued, “Our territory currently has no professionals who are rchants. I welco you to join us, may I entrust you with the grocery store in our territory?”
“It would be my honor,” Vigil said without hesitation.
Being able to walk openly under the sunlight, what’s the big deal about working at a grocery store?
After finishing the arrangents, Zhou Bai left.
After she left, Vigil looked at the information about himself being the grocery store owner and headed straight towards the territory’s grocery store.
A mont later, looking at the items in the attached warehouse of the grocery store, Vigil’s expression revealed a hint of sothing unusual.
Although this territory was only a Level 2 territory, it seed to have quite a promising foundation.
Vigil curved his lips slightly, feeling rather lucky.
He had noticed that the Heroic Spirit Hall was a Level 2 building, yet only he was summoned, which indicated that the other wasn’t summoned.
Since summoning was limited, he would have to perform well if he wanted to stay in the future!
He would go and probe the territory when day broke tomorrow.
Zhou Bai, unaware of Vigil’s thoughts, went to the Beast God Temple after leaving the Heroic Spirit Hall.
Likewise, a notification ca from the Beast God Temple.
“Dear Host, the one-month employnt term for the Beastman NPCs you summoned, including Lucas, O’Neill, Fred, etc., has expired. Would you like to continue their employnt? (Provide a day off before continuing employnt)”
“Note: Since the Lord is outside the territory, the term is extended.”
Unlike Bayer and the others, Lucas and other Beastman NPCs were hired later due to her absence from the territory then, making them the first batch to be rehired.
Zhou Bai also chose “yes” without any hesitation.
Imdiately after, she began summoning.
Similarly, Zhou Bai first checked the information.
This ti, it still showed Tiger-n and Bull-n, both around Level 15.
Zhou Bai chose not to hire them.
After doing all this, Zhou Bai then returned ho.
When she crawled back into bed, Zhou Bai truly hoped that next ti the territory buildings were upgraded, hiring NPCs would not require her personal summoning as the Lord, because it was really exhausting to do this day after day.
The thought quickly passed, and soon Zhou Bai fell back into deep sleep.
When she woke up again, it was the heat that woke her.
As Zhou Bai woke up, Ding Qiurou also awoke.
“Today is extrely hot, no telling how many days it will last! Could it affect your dad and the others returning?” Ding Qiurou asked worriedly.
After Zhou Bai’s return, all she worried about was Zhou Zhengping.
And now they were faced with extre weather, sothing that had never happened before.
“They might return a bit late, but they won’t lack equipnt. Diana had prepared equipnt with heat resistance even if they were caught mid-journey, the overall trip taking only half a day, so the impact on them would be minimal,” Zhou Bai also worried but believed in Zhou Zhengping and his ability to cope.
She hadn’t expected the sudden onset of high temperatures.
Luckily, since they had considered the possibility of encountering extre weather before they left, each team was prepared.
So apart from not being able to return on ti due to being outside, it was actually beneficial for them.
The territory gained a few more days to prepare.
Especially the dried at.
Normally, the dried at required a Water Mage to extract the moisture or a Wind Mage to air-dry it, but now maybe they just needed to leave it under the sun.
Hearing Zhou Bai say this, Ding Qiurou felt sowhat reassured, then turned her attention to the new notification on the control panel, “Do you need to go out and get busy now?”
“Yes, I’m planning to set up an industrial area, for subsequent large-scale production of so specialty products of the territory,” Zhou Bai nodded.
The industrial area was led by the territory, and the notice was issued in the na of the territory, but later, she would also take full responsibility for this project in her capacity as the Village Chief.
“I’ll co with you! I didn’t finish organizing everything yesterday; I only managed to get so items on the shelves,” Ding Qiurou rembered the pile of items in the territory, and it really overwheld her!
“No need for you to sort it out; I just employed an Undead NPC who is a rchant and assigned him to the grocery store,” Zhou Bai said.
“That’s perfect!” Ding Qiurou responded happily.
Organizing was fine, but stocking shelves was tough, it was good to have soone for that.
“You go and et with him later,” Zhou Bai instructed.
“Okay,” Ding Qiurou nodded.
After finishing their conversation, the two prepared to head out together to work.
And as soon as they stepped out, they were astonished by the scene in the trading area.
