Although Bai Yu verbally scolded [The Orphan of Zhao] as a dog, her hands didn't stop.
Bai Yu had listed 3000 food on the trading hub earlier and the storage still had 600.
Bai Yu decisively used food to trade for the iron ingots.
It was just food.
The thing I, Bai Yu, lacked the least was food!
But unfortunately, [The Orphan of Zhao] listed too few iron ingots, only 150.
While those brain dead lords were still chatting in the world chat about what iron ingots were used for, Bai Yu decisively used 200 food to trade up all of the remaining one hundred iron ingots.
Bai Yu took out one of the just traded iron ingots from the storage and held it in her hand.
The iron ingot was forged into a brick shape, weighing about 5 kg.
However, to the 35 strength stat Bai Yu, it was as light as cotton.
"This is the iron ingot? Isn't this just an impure lump of iron..."
Bai Yu had initially thought it was so high tier item, but it turned out to be exactly as its na suggested, just normally iron...
Upgrading to a town required ten thousand iron ingots.
If she traded for it with food, that would need 20k food.
The price of food will only keep going down, and if no one finds new ways to get iron ingots, then the price of them will only get higher.
She looked at the ten thousand iron ingots required to upgrade to a town, and then the one hundred iron ingots in her storage.
"How long will this take!"
Bai Yu wailed, looking unhappy.
She didn’t even know if there were any undead units who could mine, wait, mining was the easy part, slting it down was the hard one.
With the intelligence of the undead, it was probably a stretch.
"Eh, the gargoyle and the few undead that didn’t get strengthened yesterday ca back! Looks like I misjudged that stupid bird, it actually understood what I said."
Bai Yu let the gargoyle and other undead go into the Black Water Altar to be strengthened, and after a minute, it was done.
The gargoyle turned black, looking like a little black rock.
Bai Yu checked the gargoyle’s stats,
[Gargoyle]
[Unit Type: Undead]
[Loyalty: 100% (Will never betray you)]
[Unit Tier: Normal]
[Level: lv 1 (Can be improved with kills)]
[Health: None (Undead trait, cannot die unless the soul’s fire is extinguished)]
[Mana: 0]
[Strength: 28 5]
[Stamina: None]
[Agility: 23 5]
[Growth Limit: Emperor Tier]
[Unique Passive: Magic Immunity (depends on magic level and own level)]
[Enhancent: Skin, defense increased, transforming into a stone statue can absorb so magic to strengthen itself (not exceeding its own level). All stats 5 points.]
The gargoyle here wasn't like those in the legends where it was afraid of sunlight and would turn back into stone when exposed to it.
Instead, after this enhancent, it could now even take the initiative to turn into stone to absorb magic and strengthen itself.
Sure enough, high tier units really were different, the enhancents got even more outrageous.
After a whole night plus a morning of leveling up, the gargoyle had reached lv5.
Now Bai Yu was starting to look down on the lv1 skeleton soldiers she herself summoned that could not be leveled.
Having the undead kill stuff within the castle's territory was more efficient because of the Bone Throne's boost that increased level by 1.
This made even those level locked level 1 skeletons beco equivalent to level 2.
Unfortunately, there weren’t many wild monsters around the castle anymore and the number of undead was increasing.
Just a casual glance outside the castle by Bai Yu was enough to see multiple skeleton soldiers.
In order to carry out Bai Yu's orders, they could only walk further away.
[You received a private ssage from a friend!]
No need to guess who it was, because Bai Yu only had one friend.
"I don’t know what this orphan wants from again.
They better not be telling they're out of food again, I'm starting to think they take as a charity!"
Bai Yu angrily humphed.
In her heart, she had already labeled this evil [The Orphan of Zhao] as a cheating, good for nothing capitalist.
She clicked opened the chat.
[The Orphan of Zhao]: "Boss, are you there? I'm out of food again and need another 500. I traded for so wood this ti and can trade you wood and stone together!"
Green tea bitch, yuck.
[The Orphan of Zhao] new label added.
[Krabby Patty]: "I have so. Let ask you sothing, do you have iron ingots?"
For the developnt of her castle, Bai Yu could only drop her big boss status, wuwuwu.
[The Orphan of Zhao]: "Yes, I have a mountain mine around , and my unit type just so happens to be able to slt iron ore."
Hahaha, so stupid, they actually leaked how to get iron ingots.
It was as Bai Yu had guessed, iron ingots were just lted iron chunks.
And those iron ingots must be from slting in a furnace.
Bai Yu felt she was overthinking this ga.
It turned out that so things were just as described, plain and simple.
Why did he tell ?
It was because even if he told her, 1, she didn't have a mine.
2, she didn't have a furnace.
3, she didn't know how to slt the ore.
Thinking of this, Bai Yu started crying again with tears almost in her eyes.
Bai Yu just wanted to reply to [The Orphan of Zhao]'s ssage and cooperate with him, but her small hand paused in midair.
If she used her food to trade for his iron ingots, then his stone would be freed up and he would be able to use that to trade for food with other lords.
His food demand would then go down and he wouldn't need to trade iron ingots as frequently with Bai Yu.
He must also understand the importance of iron ingots and definitely wouldn’t be as casual with it as Bai Yu selling food.
Dang it, I have no advantage at all.
Bai Yu was still in a dilemma when she saw that [The Orphan of Zhao] sent another ssage because she hadn’t responded for a while.
[The Orphan of Zhao]: "Big boss, do you want to trade for iron ingots?"
This also gave Zhao Lianxue a piece of information, that was that Bai Yu’s castle was also max level.
And Zhao Lianxue wasn't an idiot either.
Zhao Lianxue could upgrade her castle to max level because she had such an advantageous location.
As for Bai Yu, her conditions definitely couldn't be better.
Zhao Lianxue guessed that Bai Yu’s unit type was probably a powerful one and also ate very little, maybe it didn't even eat any food.
Otherwise, there was no way to explain how Bai Yu could casually pull out so much food.
Zhao Lianxue thought Bai Yu’s combat power must be very high whereas her own units' combat power was too weak.
Although, for now, Zhao Lianxue currently believed the monster tide would be no problem, the problem was the fight for supremacy after that.
Relying on just her dwarven artisans was fine if she wasn't discovered, but it would be over once she does.
Therefore, teaming (clinging) with (onto) Bai (big) Yu (thigh) was very necessary.
Zhao Lianxue just hoped Bai Yu wasn’t a greasy, balding old man (preferably a 1.8m tall handso guy).
[Krabby Patty]: "Yes, how many can you trade?"
[The Orphan of Zhao]: "To show my sincerity, how about I use 300 iron ingots to trade for 500 food this ti? And if boss needs it, I can promise to trade 200 iron ingots every day for just 300 food. Just consider it as becoming friends with you."
Bai Yu: ??!
This guy can really do business!
Even giving a 100 discount on food, okay, making Bai Yu look stingy, but Bai Yu likes it!
[Krabby Patty]："Alright, my dear friend!"
Bai Yu was so excited she almost blurted it out,
If they didn't abandon her, Yu would gladly call them father!
Luckily Bai Yu was rational, or she would have lost face.
