Chapter 315: Chapter 309, Slaying the Master 1

“No worries, I brought tools. I’ll dig a hole right here, hehe…” chuckled the dwarf rabbit.

“Dig one for me too, but don’t make it too big. We don’t want it to be easily discovered.”                              7

“Got it,” came the reply.

Fang Hao was standing behind them, listening to their risque laughter. These two rabbits…they behaved like peeping toms.

As the two of them truly began to dig into the wall, Fang Hao quietly cleared his throat.

Ahem-Aheml!

The two rabbits, with their butts sticking out, froze.

“Did I hear Master’s voice? You check.”

“I dare not. You check.”

“Let’s turn around together.”

They slowly turned around. Upon seeing Fang Hao, indeed, standing behind them, they flushed and stood straight up.

Their tools were quickly hidden behind their backs.

Fang Hao recognized the two rabbit women.

One of them had left a deep impression on him.

She was around 1.5 meters tall, with a baby-face and white floppy ears. Most notably, her exaggerated chest size was unforgettable.

The other rabbit woman was tall and slender with handsome features.

“What are you two doing here?” asked Fang Hao sternly.

“Ah? Oh, nothing, just strolling…” responded the large-chested rabbit woman. “Right, we’re just taking a walk, Master,” echoed the other woman.

Fang Hao looked at the two with resignation. They had learned to lie.

He lightly tapped each of them on the head. “Focus on leveling up, don’t spend all your time playing.”

“Okay, Master,” they both responded as they hurriedly left.

After the two women left, Fang Hao resumed his morning workout.

After concluding his morning workout…

Eira had prepared breakfast.

Knowing that Fang Hao had a hard time on the road last night, she prepared an abundant meal this morning.

There were five dishes, and some ingredients that were good for the body. Ding!

Suddenly, the Book of Lords sounded off with a private chat notification.

Upon checking, Fang Hao saw it was from Deng Bin who had traded equipment with him a few days prior.

Aband of bandits had invaded Deng Bin’s territory, and after several encounters, she had suffered significant losses.

To combat the bandits, Deng Bin swapped a batch of equipment from Fang Hao, offering flax as the bargaining chip.

It’s been two days since their trade – it seemed that Deng Bin was victorious. “Thanks for your support with the equipment, everything is resolved now. We can continue our flax trade,” said Deng Bin.

It seemed that eliminating the bandits greatly improved her mood.

‘I’m glad to hear that. Now that the threat is over, you may want to consider expanding your flax growing. I plan to increase my purchases in the future ” replied Fang Hao.

Deng Bin was a reliable person. Despite her mafia-like appearance, their transactions had been smooth so far.

Fang Hao was more than willing to cooperate with her – it was a stable deal without much hassle.

Additionally, Fang Hao’s demand for flax was increasing.

Besides the typical flax clothing, flax fabric began to feature among other equipment crafting materials.

For instance, the horse mask and armor he acquired yesterday required flax linen and spun thread.

Fang Hao speculated that future item crafting would possibly involve a large quantity of flax linen and spun thread.

Therefore, he planned to increase his flax purchase significantly. Moreover, according to their agreement, future flax prices would be halved.

After Fang Hao sent his message, there was a brief silence on the other end.

After a couple of minutes, Deng Bin responded.

“Big brother, if you promise to buy all my flax, I can arrange for a large-scale planting.”

Deng Bin’s idea was quite simple.

She could plant the crops, but Fang Hao had to buy all the produce. She didn’t want to be stuck with an unsaleable surplus.

Sure, arrange for the planting. I’ll buy everything,” Fang Hao agreed. While others might worry about an excess of flax, Fang Hao certainly did not. Forget about his hundreds of skeleton tailors.

Flax products were very marketable in the channels and orc areas.

For the moment, his worry was more about not having enough flax, rather than having too much.

“Great, big brother, I trust you. I’ll arrange for planting right away.” Cooperating with Fang Hao had been nothing but beneficial for Deng Bin. She could even gather the resources she needed through her flax trades. “Yeah, go ahead. Don’t forget to develop your armed forces,” advised Fang Hao. “Okay, thanks big brother.”

Deng Bin expressed her sincere gratitude.

Meanwhile, the villagers and soldiers around Deng Bin erupted into cheers upon hearing word of the flax planting agreement.

In the future, flax crops would provide them with better livelihoods.

After ending the chat with Deng Bin, Fang Hao grabbed breakfast and glanced at the regional channel.

The atmosphere in today’s channel was a little tense.

After observing for a while, he finally understood what everybody was discussing.

Apparently, a lord had posted in the channel last night saying that the loyalty of his militiamen had dropped to 32 points.

He mentioned that the atmosphere in his territory had become quite strange, and he felt like his subordinates might kill him.

Today, however, people noticed his absence.

Someone added the lord as a friend and confirmed that his private chat had disappeared.

When they searched for the lord, they received the message that this person did not exist.

It was basically confirmed that this lord had died the previous night.

This news caused quite a stir.

Everyone knew that low loyalty could lead to the negligence and defection of subjects.

However, this was the first time there was actual evidence of subjects killing their lord due to low loyalty.

What the lord did to make loyalty drop to 32 points was no longer important, because he was dead.

He had become a negative example to others, highlighting the importance of subject loyalty.

In other words, if loyalty drops too low, one must be prepared for the worst.

Watching everyone’s discussion in the regional channel…

Fang Hao felt a slight tremble in his hand that was holding the wine glass.

He rushed to the page that displayed the loyalty level.

“The Beauty of the Lonely Night – Laurana Ann Tobias, current loyalty towards you: 25.”

It was indeed still 25 points.

Someone else was killed at 32 points, and his was only 25.

Fang Hao began to question whether recruiting this Dark Gold hero was a wise decision after all.

Though he had no reason to provoke her.

However, her past was somewhat tumultuous.

What would he do if she was mentally unstable or had mood swings?

Seems like he needed to be a little more careful.

After breakfast, Fang Hao stepped out of the lord’s mansion.

The warm sunlight brought comfort to his entire body.

The sun was definitely more pleasant. He wondered how humans survived in Crescent Heights.

After stretching his body, Fang Hao made his way to the Undead building area. He opened the Book of Lords and found the blueprint for the Blood Prison. The Blood Prison was a blueprint unlocked after capturing the Blood Castle. It was just perfect as there was no place to imprison criminals in his territory. He selected an appropriate spot on the vacant land to the east for the prison. Location was crucial for imprisoning criminals.

The Blood Prison was positioned right within the Undead region. Even if any prisoner escaped, they would face an onslaught from the undead army. “Level One Blood Prison: 2500 Wood, 3000 Stone, 350 Iron, 200 Cast iron blocks, 150 metal parts, 1 trace of violence.”
