Chapter 117 Shadow Scout's Investigation

Chapter 117 Shadow Scout's Investigation
The simple lord's courtyard has become much more spacious after the upgrade.

The entire area was expanded, pushing the buildings originally built next to it a little further out.

The originally low wooden fence turned into a stone wall more than two meters high.

In the yard, in addition to the territory crystal and the original tables and chairs, there are a few more green plants to decorate it.

The house was also replaced from a low-quality thatched house to a brick and tile house.

Compared with the first-level lord’s courtyard, the overall layout and structure are much more grand after this upgrade.

To a certain extent, it has the aura of a lord's mansion.

Mo Yu stepped in and checked his new home expectantly.

As you enter the door, you will see a living room of about 40 to 50 square meters with some yellow wooden chairs on both sides.

It can be used as a meeting room in the future, so we don’t have to stand outside every time to discuss things.

The number of rooms also increased from one to four.

These rooms all have the function of restoring energy, and the recovery effect has been reduced from the original 6 hours to fully charge to 5 and a half hours.

"Well, one room for Dazhuang, one for Timo, and the other one will be left empty for now." Mo Yu made arrangements quickly.

In fact, Salt is also qualified to occupy one, but now, he has not reached that level of trust.

As for Lai Fu, this silly dog ​​can just sleep in the yard.

It is full of energy, so it would be a shame to let it sleep in the room.

The original warehouse was moved to an outbuilding on the side.

What surprised Mo Yu the most was that there was finally a place to take a shower in the master bedroom.

Although it is not a modern shower head, it has constant temperature water flow and corresponding washing tools.

These days, Mo Yu has been simply washing himself with well water.

Not only was I cold, but my body was also sticky and uncomfortable.

After all, I am used to taking a shower every day, and now I suddenly find myself in such an environment, and I still feel a little uncomfortable.

After a quick wash, he felt relaxed all over and as if he were floating in the air.

It's like taking off a heavy piece of armor.

Lying on the bed, Mo Yu soon fell into a deep sleep.

……

Nothing happened during the night. When Mo Yu woke up, it was already dawn.

The territory is already bustling and prosperous.

The several buildings that were put down last night have been built one after another, and the ones with faster progress have been completed.

Except for the people who were on duty last night, everyone has gotten up and is busy following Uhtred's arrangements.

Seeing the lord getting up, the old patriarch of Stef strode over.

He began to report his work one by one.

"The shadow scouts who went out for reconnaissance have returned to the territory. You can call them up at any time to inquire about the situation."

"Goblin, the goblin engineer came to me this morning to confess his sins. I hope you can give him another chance."

"Then let's talk about today's resource collection arrangements..."

Uhtred's report was very detailed, which he learned from Da Zhuang.

In fact, at the beginning, he didn't think much of Da Zhuang, thinking that this man had simply relied on flattery to get to the top.

But as they came into contact, Uhtred saw another side of Da Zhuang.

He is very careful in his work and devotes his heart and soul to the territory. No wonder the lord trusts him so much.

"Well, today's resource collection is still average collection. Although stone collection is more difficult, we have to maintain it."

"Let the goblin engineer start with the mining machine research. Tell him that as long as he can produce results to prove his strength, the territory will not treat him unfairly, but he should not have any other ulterior motives."

"Take care of the rest of the arrangements and be on guard to prevent the wild collectors from being attacked by monsters." "Go down, and call the shadow scout over for me."

Uhtred bowed slightly, "As you command, my lord."

Soon, the shadow scouts who were out gathered in Mo Yu's yard.

After communicating with each other, they have marked all the key points they found on the map.

Mo Yu took the map and looked at it carefully.

Due to the poor conditions, the map drawn by the Shadow Scout looks rough.

Just use some points and words to simply mark the approximate location and situation.

There are more than twenty marked buildings, treasure chests, and resource points, large and small.

There are also various monster forces and even player tribes.

Of course, what is marked on this map is not absolute.

Because it has just been refreshed, the newly appeared resource points may not be marked in time during the return journey.

Some old resource locations may be taken over by other monsters, or they may reach their time limit and be refreshed to other places.

However, all resource points that appear within a ten-kilometer radius of the territory must have just been refreshed.

Today, Mo Yu’s target is these resource locations.

In addition to resource locations, he was also more concerned about other forces on the map.

In the forest to the north, in addition to the known tribes of the Fallen Demons and Centaurs, there are also many scattered gatherings of small monsters.

The most threatening one is a huge beastman tribe about 40 kilometers away in the depths of the forest.

This beastman tribe is not a single group, but is composed of three tribes: bear people, lizard people, and mantis people, and its strength is quite amazing.

As to whether it is a player's territory or an indigenous force, it is not known yet.

In the wasteland to the west, after walking through the rocky area for about ten kilometers, you will reach a stretch of mountains.

There are a large number of high-level monsters in the mountains, making it difficult for the shadow scouts to make any progress.

Therefore, the exploration in the west did not go too far.

On the eastern grasslands, most of the inhabitants are herds of various animals, and no fixed gathering places have been found.

However, the Shadow Scout accidentally discovered a special building, which was a two-way portal that had just been refreshed.

Because there are monsters guarding the portal, the shadow scouts don't know where it is connected to.

"We need to investigate the situation at the portal, or at least find out what's going on over there."

"It just so happens that the resources on this side of the grassland are the most abundant. There is a resource point, two treasure chests, and a wild soldier's nest. Let's clear them out together today!"

"By the way, let's go to the portal and check the situation."

Mo Yu set out his work plan for today.

At the same time, he ordered Salt to take the dragon eagle to sweep the monsters around the territory.

Although only the unicorn python group attacked the territory last night, there is no guarantee that other monster forces will not appear.

Not all monsters are as brainless as the unicorn python. If they hide in the dark and wait for the monsters behind to refresh and unite, it will be a troublesome matter.

Mo Yu now doesn't dare to treat all the monsters here as NPCs.

Bruman still acted as a guard, accompanying them on their explorations.

In the territory, Uhtred is the main person, and Salt will not leave too far. He will return at any time if there is any situation.

I originally planned to take Teemo out with me, but he was in the military camp, training his goblin dartsmen.

According to Uhtred, he also asked for a few Tinder rabbits, saying that he wanted to do some experiments.

Mo Yu didn't disturb him, allowing him to concentrate on his research.

At the command, Mo Yu led his team and began a sweep of the grassland.
