"What do you an?"
Su Ran was a bit dazed, "What happened to ? I’m just lying at ho playing a ga, not bothering anyone, why do I need to run away?"
"Do you know Elder Yin?"
"Elder Yin?"
Su Ran felt the na was familiar, and then he rembered. When his hotown was looted by thugs, it was Elder Yin who led the troops to save him. However, Elder Yin was after the Evolution Elixir, and he demolished the slums for it, but in the end, Little Hei got it cheaply.
Even a fool could figure out that Elder Yin was an officer in the army, with quite a high status, commanding the strength of a whole company with just a word, how impressive!
"I t Elder Yin once. When those thugs ca to my house to rob and smash, it was Elder Yin who brought people to save us."
This was all in the past, so there was no need to hide it.
"Little Ran, the process of you saving under the bridge, and those few lightning bolts were all captured by the surveillance caras. The video footage is now in Elder Yin’s hands, and he wants to see you."
Li Wan’er’s voice was a bit urgent, and she was quite anxious.
"Does he know where I live?"
Su Ran asked, his heart skipping a few beats, and he asked calmly, "What did he say to you?"
"Elder Yin doesn’t know ; he knows my dad!"
Li Wan’er said, both annoyed and amused, "Are you thinking I betrayed you? Little Ran, really? You don’t even trust your Wan’er sis?"
"Then why are you in a rush to leave? Isn’t it because you want to distance yourself from to avoid getting implicated?"
Seeing that Wan’er didn’t reveal his address, Su Ran was relieved, but he didn’t understand why Wan’er was leaving in such a hurry, there must be sothing going on!
Layering long johns under pants, there must be a reason!
"What? Little Ran, are you trying to frustrate to death?"
Li Wan’er glared at her phone angrily before patiently explaining, "I’m going back because my dad gave a strict order for to et him. It probably has sothing to do with you, so be ntally prepared. But don’t worry, I know nothing."
"Thank you, Wan’er sis."
Su Ran sincerely expressed his gratitude. He also understood that the kidnapping case was a huge deal, and the state would inevitably get involved, it was just a matter of ti before he was exposed.
Luckily, he moved houses early, or else Elder Yin would likely pay him a visit again.
"Thank you for what? It was just a small favor. Don’t think you can avoid it. In the face of Sky Net and big data, you can’t hide for long."
Li Wan’er quickly added, afraid of adding to Su Ran’s psychological burden, "Little Ran, I’ll ask my dad to do his best to help you out. After all, you are my lifesaver, right?"
"Wan’er sis, you’re the best..."
"Now you realize how great I am? Feeling a little heart-throb?"
"Wan’er sis, today’s weather is so nice."
"Cut it out!"
...
After hanging up the phone, Su Ran’s expression turned serious. He glanced at the simple decorations in the room, feeling complicated. He had just gotten used to the environnt here, did he have to move again?
No way!
Whether Elder Yin knows about this place or not, so what if he does? This place was arranged by my dad, why should I move? Now I have the ability to protect mom, and with Little Hei around, even if faced with a company of troops, I can hold my ground!
What’s more, it’s a society ruled by law now. I refuse to believe there’s no justice in this society!
"Mom, where did Little Hei go?"
Su Ran glanced at Little Hei’s nest, but didn’t find him, which surprised him.
"Little Hei left with Little Wan and should be back soon."
His mom’s voice ca from the kitchen, "Have you washed your hands? Hurry up and co eat!"
"Damn, that randy cat!"
...
After eating his fill, Su Ran didn’t wait for Little Hei and logged back into the ga.
The joy brought by the level up of the Cloning Technique magic technique had been overshadowed by the news from Wan’er sis. If it weren’t for not finishing the tasks, he wouldn’t be in the mood to play gas; he couldn’t just sit and wait for doom.
The Drought Fiend and the Five-clawed Bone Dragon King hadn’t fully absorbed the soul liquid yet, so Su Ran didn’t hold out hope. What needed to be done next was developing the territory.
Now Su Ran had over 17 million in financial resources, it was the perfect ti to enhance his defensive structures. His first choice was upgrading the walls.
Back then, turning earthen walls into city walls cost him over ten thousand in financial resources. Now, he planned to enhance the city walls’ defenses further, critical during territory battles.
"Ding! Deducting 1,000,000 financial resources from Skeleton Territory, wall upgrade successful."
"Swish!"
The system alert sounded, and two brand new towers instantly appeared above the city wall. Two Skeleton Archers appeared on the towers, along with the previous two, forming an impressive scale.
"Spending that 1 million was truly worth it!"
Su Ran initially only wanted to boost the city wall’s defense, but didn’t expect two additional towers. Just the two new Skeleton Archers were worth 1 million financial resources!
"What’s there to hesitate, keep upgrading!"
Without any hesitation, Su Ran continued upgrading. After all, the over 10 million financial resources were a gift from the ’Green Hat’ brothers, he’d be letting them down not to spend it all!
"Ding! Deducting 10,000,000 financial resources from Skeleton Territory, wall upgrade successful."
Instantly, 10 million financial resources were deducted, and the walls beca significantly taller, with two more towers forming a neat row.
"Haha, quite the facade!"
Su Ran excitedly looked at the gate. It was like having six unlimited cannon turrets greatly boosting the territory’s deterrent force, imnsely satisfying!
The next step was to upgrade the newly erged four Skeleton Archers. With sufficient financial resources, it was a piece of cake!
"Ding! Deducting 2000 financial resources from Skeleton Territory, Skeleton Guards upgrade successful."
With just 2,000 points, the four Skeleton Archers were raised to level 20. This was only the beginning, as subsequent costs would increase exponentially. With over 6 million financial resources remaining, it was hardly a challenge!
At this mont, Su Ran fully demonstrated the power of money, using 220,000 financial resources to elevate the four Skeleton Archers to level 40, bringing all six Skeleton Archers to the sa height.
That was not all; he invested another 3 million financial resources to elevate all six Skeleton Archers to level 50, and each one learned a practical passive skill, Magic Flash.
[Skeleton Guard] (Archer) Level 50
Qi Blood: 6000
Attack: 460-520
Defense: 160
Active Skill: Piercing Cloud Arrow - 20% attack bonus, -10% target defense, with penetration effect, damage reduces by 30% successively, affecting up to three targets.
Passive Skills: Break Invisibility - Invisible targets lose invisibility when approaching Skeleton Guard.
Self-Heal - Restores 10% Qi Blood every ten seconds.
Magic Flash - 20% chance to completely evade magic attacks.
"Not bad, really not bad!"
Su Ran was extrely satisfied with the attributes of the six Skeleton Archers, especially with the Magic Flash skill. With a one-in-five chance to evade magic attacks, it significantly increased their survivability, pair it with the Self-Heal skill, taking out these Skeleton Archers from a distance would not be easy.
Faced with these six majestic Skeleton Archers, Su Ran felt thrilled, eager for a territory battle to break out, letting these invaders experience the deadly downpour of arrows!
Wa ha ha~!
Su Ran had no qualms about spending the over 10 million financial resources, for it was ant to be used! It was worth it!
When he first acquired Skeleton Village, he set an ambitious goal to create an impenetrable fortress, and now the frawork was taking shape. One day, Skeleton Village would beco an indestructible fortress, he was confident in that!
With over 3 million financial resources left, Su Ran planned to upgrade his territory. Once the territory reached level six, he needed the corresponding construction blueprints to proceed with upgrades. The next step was to acquire those blueprints!
