Chapter 187: Massive recruitment, population surge in the territory

The two warring parties stood still on the bluestone square of the territory.

On the leopard people's side, the fourth-order rare leader Salwen personally took the field.

Although there are some masters with fifth-level strength in the entire leopard tribe, the one with the strongest overall strength is still the leopard leader.

Moreover, he also wanted to personally experience the strength of the Mo Yu Territory.

On the territory side, Salt stood up.

There are two races involved, with a total of eight or nine hundred people, so Mo Yu chose the most reliable personnel.

There are many people in the territory who can rival Salwen now, including the fifth-level frost giant Fuli, the shadow scout who has been promoted to the rare fourth-level, the shepherd with many younger brothers, and so on.

But the safest one is naturally Salt.

As a hero-level creature, he is different from Teemo.

Teemo's heroic power comes from inheritance, and Salt is a hero himself, and his original strength may be extremely powerful.

It's just because of the restrictions of the rules of the world of conquest that I have to start all over again.

But his combat experience and level are definitely far beyond the current level. He is definitely one of the few people in the territory, besides Mo Yu, who has the ability to fight across levels.

The battle started quickly and ended quickly.

The outcome speaks for itself, Salt won the victory with ease.

The fight between the two lasted only four or five rounds, starting with Salwen's swift and fierce attack and ending with Salt's spear against Salwen's throat.

Mo Yu realized that the real combat effectiveness of the two sides mainly differed in combat skills.

The difference between their basic strength is not that big, but in terms of fighting skills, Salwen is far inferior to Salt.

The leopard leader Salwen developed all his fighting skills through his own exploration, and they are unconventional.

And Salt, who came from the regular army, also has rich combat experience.

It was not surprising that the blow was fatal.

There was some silence on the battlefield for a while.

Although they had anticipated defeat, no one expected the defeat to be so complete, not even Salwen himself.

Even though he still had a trump card that he hadn't used yet, losing was losing.

He is not the type of person who would play tricks.

"I lost. We, the Leopard People, will join your territory."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Yu received a hint that the Leopard People had joined the territory.

The dwarves were still a little confused. They joined too quickly and too suddenly. They were not mentally prepared at all.

Seeing Mo Yu's gaze, the dwarves who had planned to observe for a while hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to surrender as a clan.

At this point, 338 dwarves and 449 leopard men have all joined Mo Yu's territory, and most of them are strong warriors.

After cleaning the library for a month or so, the territory will have a new group of loyal warriors.

"Brave warriors, I am honored to have you join my territory. As the lord, I welcome you!"

Led by Da Zhuang, everyone applauded.

The dwarves and leopards listened to the warm applause and were unconsciously infected by the atmosphere.

Mo Yu smiled and said, "Da Zhuang, take out the treasured wheat beer from the territory and welcome everyone!"

Upon hearing this, the dwarves' eyes suddenly lit up, and even the leopard warriors were a little agitated.

As a semi-wild monster, after it is refreshed, it will be grateful if it can get enough food every day. How can it afford luxury goods such as alcohol?

After hearing this, I was immediately drooling.

But it was difficult to show it on his face, so he could only wait secretly in his heart.

In the lively atmosphere, the territory started to operate rapidly.

Da Zhuang led his men to settle these dwarves and leopard warriors, as well as the grassland barbarians who surrendered earlier.
There are not enough houses in the territory, so we can only live in tents for the time being.

After several raids on camps outside, the territory now has accumulated quite a few tents, nearly a thousand in total, so there is no problem in accommodating these people.

However, the construction of the territory needs to be accelerated. With so many additional people, all kinds of basic living facilities must keep up in a timely manner.

In the kitchen, the chef of the Multi-Claw Tribe was multitasking, with each of his claws busy preparing ingredients for lunch.

As usual, eat meat for the first meal.

The territory now has the capital, and there is a lot of meat stored in the warehouse, so it can be afforded for one or two meals.

But in the long run, wheat, taro, etc. are still the main focus.

Mo Yu returned to the yard and took a nap for half an hour, relaxing his tense spirit that had been in place since yesterday.

Shortly after he woke up, Da Zhuang came over and invited him to the square to prepare for the celebration banquet.

Everyone enjoyed the meal very much.

Ten barrels of wheat craft beer, each barrel was an extra-large wooden barrel weighing 200 kilograms, adding up to 2000 kilograms, and they were all drunk up.

Some drank one or two bowls, while others drank several kilograms.

But this thing is just beer, which has a low alcohol content and is more like a beverage.

But some of them were still drunk and fell asleep.

Mo Yu also drank a lot, and after a meal, he got along well with the dwarf and the leopard man.

Unlike when they just surrendered, they could clearly feel a clear gap between them.

By now, the leopards and dwarves have essentially gradually accepted this reality.

Before eating, they also roughly observed the strength of the territory and were surprised to find that this territory had so many defense towers.

The strength of the troops is not weak either, there is the legendary Dragon Eagle, the king of air combat... several heroic-level troops... and the scale of the territory development is also not small, with all kinds of strange buildings.

They had long since put aside their contempt and vaguely felt that joining such a territory might not be a bad idea.

……

After dinner, the territory had a half-day holiday.

Of course, the construction and repair of gates and city walls did not stop.

The dwarves took it upon themselves to build the city gates, and they were extremely talented in this regard.

The fifth-level necromancer, Purton, was currently under the Skeleton Summoning Tower, happily studying the summoned skeletons.

Although he was a little confused at first when he learned that he was defeated by two defense towers, he was in a trance.

But when he learned that the Skeleton Summoning Tower could provide endless experimental materials, he suddenly became excited again.

Pulton has a very Buddhist mentality. It doesn't matter where he lies down. Besides, life in this territory is not bad, and there are free experimental materials.

As long as his life is not threatened, he doesn't mind working steadily.

Of course, what he didn't know was that this territory had a lot of problems. If he worked here for too long, he might become a real worker and would never be able to leave this territory.

Mo Yu had no intention of exploring the outside world today. He lay back on the bed, feeling exhausted. Although he did not personally participate in the battle, commanding behind the scenes was not easy either. He did not dare to close his eyes during this period.

I was afraid that as soon as I closed my eyes, the enemy would attack me, or an assassin would jump out of the room.

However, this assassination attempt in the wild still served as a warning to Mo Yu.

We must not relax in honing our own strength.

The lord has limitations in this area, but if he lacks strength, he can make up for it with technology.

Like this time, the crisis response he had honed under the assassination of the Shadow Scout successfully saved his life.

But if he were to face an assassination attempt by the Void Hunter, Mo Yu would not dare to absolutely guarantee that he could escape.

In fact, although strength plays a role, there is also some luck involved.

Fortunately, although the Void Hunter clan was not completely wiped out, at least most of them were definitely wiped out.

There is definitely not much high-end combat power left, so you should be extra careful when going out in the next few days.

As long as they survive this week, the Void Hunters, as wild monsters that spawn, must follow those stronghold monsters to attack the territory.

If they fail to capture the city by then, these wild monsters and stronghold monsters will become complete slaves of the Conquer World and be used in other places.

The threat of going out from the territory would naturally be solved.

However, what Mo Yu didn't know was that the Void Hunters really came out in full force this time. With their leader charging forward, naturally there would be no one standing behind to watch the show.

So, they were really wiped out at the same time.

Of course, it's always better to be more vigilant when going out.

The series of events after the assassination also taught Mo Yu a lesson - don't underestimate any enemy and never treat them simply as wild monsters.

For example, this time, the Void Hunter accidentally caused a big mess.

They united seven races and came to attack the territory.

There will definitely be more such situations in the future, even more.

Therefore, we must always pay enough attention to the forces surrounding the territory.

Moreover, through communication with the leaders of the two tribes, the territory crystal is quite tempting to the indigenous forces or wild monster forces.

According to future developments, the indigenous forces will also become a major enemy of the lord.

Lying on the bed, Mo Yu couldn't help feeling worried.

The situation will only become more and more complicated in the future, and I don’t know how long his advantage can be maintained.

Get stronger, keep getting stronger!
The belief that Mo Yu had always held in his heart became even more firm. Only if he was strong enough could he crush all the enemies in front of him.

The territory gained a lot from this battle.

The population alone has increased by 1667 people, and including the original population, it has exceeded the 2000 mark.

It only takes a period of stable development to naturally reach the 3000 population requirement for promotion to a fourth-level territory. It will definitely not be a problem.

But these people were all prisoners of war, and the sudden increase in a large population also brought many variables and difficulties to the management of the territory.

Regarding this, Mo Yu repeatedly reminded Da Zhuang to be extremely alert in the first three days.

In order to prevent accidents, he also let summoned creatures enter the military camp one after another, giving people the illusion that there were a large number of troops stationed in the barracks.

However, in fact, more than two-thirds of the territory now consists of prisoners who have just surrendered.

These people have just landed in the territory, so it is still necessary to be on guard.

Although Mo Yu was confident that he could quickly suppress the civil unrest, once this thing appeared, the damage to the territory's buildings and facilities as well as people's hearts would be enormous.

However, I believe that as long as we can successfully get through the first few days, the hidden dangers will be completely eliminated as the subconscious control at the library will catch up.

Compared with the increase in population, the few deaths are nothing.

They were all ordinary Goblins and Lady Stirling, technical personnel with important skills, and they did not participate in the battle on the city wall from beginning to end.

Mo Yu held a burial ceremony for the enemies who died on the battlefield, and also provided sufficient material compensation if they had relatives.

He was still very generous in this regard.

After all, others lost their lives, while he only paid some supplies.

The result of doing so will naturally make the cohesion of the territory stronger.

In addition to the most important population gain, the spoils of war were also considerable.

First of all, there are a large number of weapons and equipment, the daggers used by the Void Hunters... the maces used by the Orc infantry... the bows and arrows used by the Centaurs, and so on.

These supplies greatly enriched Mo Yu's warehouse and also provided him with a wave of iron ore resources.

We are now preparing to produce a large number of Rune Golems. The iron ore decomposed from this batch of equipment can greatly alleviate the pressure on resources.

There are also some special trophies, Latham's dagger, the Void Blood Blade, which has extremely strong stealth and assassination capabilities and was given to Teemo.

As the only two heroes in the territory, he was too shabby, unlike Salt who was both a Zosi and a lancer.

So between choosing to convert a rare-level defense tower and giving it to Teemo, Mo Yu chose the latter.

Void Crystal, a territory consumable item, can make the territory space more stable and suppress the spatial abilities of non-territory creatures.

Like this time, if strengthened by the void crystal, it might not be so easy for Latham to get close to the territory.

One piece of legion equipment, the Centaur Bow, can increase the range of ranged troops by 10%.

There is no usage threshold like the Military Soul Battle Flag. As long as you are within the 50-meter coverage range of the Centaur Bow, you can receive this bonus.

In addition, there is another piece of loot, which is the construction drawings of the Mountain Giant Camp dropped by the Mountain Giant Leader.

This is a rare fourth-level troop nest, and it is a relatively good siege troop. Mo Yu chose to build it in his territory.

These few decent pieces of trophy were dropped by several tribal leaders.

The orc leader successfully escaped, and the remaining dwarves, leopard men, grassland barbarians and necromancers were recruited into the territory. Mo Yu only killed three tribal leaders.

"It would be a good idea to have more wars like this." Mo Yu muttered to himself, stroking his chin.

But he was just thinking about it. If possible, he would rather set the battlefield on someone else's territory.

For example, the underground space next door.

After this wave of power growth, Mo Yu is more confident about the upcoming battles.

Today is the third day of this week, and there are still four days to go.

He needed to make a reasonable plan. On the one hand, he needed to speed up the clearing of strongholds near the territory. On the other hand, he needed to start transporting troops to the underground space.

That portal can only transport a small number of people each time. If Mo Yu wants to transport a large number of troops from his territory there, he must prepare in advance.

He planned to send some troops to Lei Xiaolong, which would not only relieve Lei Xiaolong's pressure, but also reduce the risk in the territory.

When the time comes to go to the underground space, it will not be good to leave too many newly recruited soldiers in the territory.

Mo Yu wanted to bring as many as possible with him, so that they could be used in the underground multi-line battles, and the risk in the territory would be lower.

As he was thinking, he lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
