129: Selling unit blueprints, trading channel turmoil

Rumble!

Amidst a world-shaking tremor, Li Feng's castle began a massive expansion.

It was less about construction and more about an upgrade.

On its existing foundation, Li Feng's castle more than doubled in size, adding several new buildings.

[Intermediate Castle]

Health: 1.6 million

Defense: 800

Effect: With the castle as its core, a radius of 20 kilometers becomes its territory. Within this territory, all units gain +100% to all attributes, +100% to health recovery speed, and all building cooldowns are reduced by -60%.

Materials required for upgrade: wood * 1 million, stone * 1 million, iron ore * 1 million, legendary resources * 10,000, Advanced Castle Blueprint * 1!

...After the upgrade, the castle's health and defense doubled, its territory radius doubled, all attribute boosts doubled, health recovery speed remained unchanged, and building cooldowns were reduced by -10%!

Using the War Tech Tree's function, Li Feng's consciousness entered God mode, overlooking his entire territory.

With the radius doubled, the territory's area quadrupled.

This allowed him to see many more things.

For example, 15 kilometers southeast of the castle, there was a small mine.

A team of Beedrill, which Li Feng had previously dispatched, was constantly mining this mountain under the leadership of their hero, providing Li Feng with a steady stream of resources.

Thirteen kilometers northwest of the castle, there was a canyon where two teams of Beedrill were stationed.

This canyon was quite special; as soon as a monster died inside, new monsters would immediately respawn.

Although the monsters' ranks were not high, with the highest being only Fourth-Tier.

Their sheer numbers were overwhelming.

Two teams of Beedrill blocked the canyon entrance, taking turns to kill monsters, continuously providing Li Feng with gold and monster resources.

And also...

After observing for a while, Li Feng withdrew his consciousness.

He opened the trade channel and sent a message.

"Massive sale of First to Sixth-Tier Troops blueprints, buy now while supplies last."

With his current strength, low-tier Troops were no longer useful for his power growth.

Instead of letting these Troops blueprints gather dust, it was better to sell them for some resources.

As soon as his message appeared, the trade channel immediately erupted.

"Holy crap, isn't that Li Feng? Shouldn't he be under siege by the Taiyi Alliance right now? How does he still have time to sell Troops blueprints?"

"He's probably losing and preparing to clear out his resources to escape, but to hold out this long against millions of Troops is still impressive."

"Hmph, still thinking of escaping? I heard that the Taiyi Alliance plans to capture him alive this time. They're definitely guarding against his escape. Just watch, he's destined to be captured alive."

"..."

Besides those watching the show and mocking, there were also Dragon Country Lords @mentioning Li Feng.

"@Li Feng, tell me your coordinates, I'll be right there. Damn the Taiyi Alliance, how dare they bully my compatriot, they're asking for death!"

"The person above is right, we've already gathered an army of several million Troops. We just need coordinates, and we can teleport over to support you immediately."

"@Li Feng, we Dragon Country Lords don't have much else, just many Lords and many Troops. Tell me your coordinates, and I'll make them piss their pants."

These Dragon Country Lords, disliking the Taiyi Alliance, spontaneously formed a coalition army of millions of Troops, wanting to support Li Feng.

Looking at these messages, Li Feng couldn't help but scratch his head.

His side had long since finished the battle; there was no need for any help.

However, a warmth still welled up in his heart.

So, Li Feng sent another message.

"Thank you for the kind intentions of all my compatriots, Li Feng appreciates it. But help is not necessary, I have already won this war, and now I am just dealing with my spoils of war."

Arrogant!

As soon as these words came out, the Lords who were hostile towards Li Feng immediately had this thought.

"Heh heh, anyone can boast with just a flick of their tongue, who can't?"

"Hahahaha, this is honestly the funniest joke I've heard all year. I didn't expect you Dragon Country people to be so humorous. A mere Novice Lord actually claims to have defeated millions of Troops, it's hilarious."

"Li Feng, oh Li Feng, are you trying to make me laugh myself to death, and then inherit my ten thousand Troops?"

The foreign Lords, who had been forcefully suppressed by the Dragon Country Lords, once again started their mass mockery.

This time, even though the Dragon Country Lords were numerous, they couldn't speak for a long time.

Even they felt that Li Feng's words were too arrogant.

Even if a few individual Lords bravely spoke up for Li Feng, they were quickly overwhelmed by the mass mockery.

Li Feng shook his head helplessly.

In this day and age, why does no one believe the truth?

If it were just him personally, no matter how much these people mocked, Li Feng wouldn't care.

How could a giant care about the insignificant clamoring of ants?

But Li Feng noticed that many Lords who spoke up for him were being targeted and rendered speechless.

He stopped talking nonsense and directly shared a video.

It was a video he had recorded in advance, showing Gerard and over a hundred other Lords in the dungeon.

His original intention for filming this video was, of course, to send it to the Taiyi Alliance's high command to demand ransom and compensation.

As the number of people clicking on the video increased, the comments in the trade channel gradually decreased.

More and more Lords fell silent.

They might not recognize others, but as Gerard, ranked nineteenth on the evildoer list, he was not exactly a household name, but more than half of the Novice Lords present recognized him.

"Holy crap!"

After a long time, someone couldn't help but be shocked.

"Holy crap!"

"Holy crap!"

"..."

More and more people joined the shocked army.

This was too unbelievable; they simply couldn't imagine how Li Feng managed to fight millions of Troops on his own.

They found it even more unimaginable why the Taiyi Alliance wanted to capture Li Feng alive, only for their own Lords to end up being captured instead.

One video not only crushed the arrogant spirits of the foreign Lords.

It also boosted the confidence of the Dragon Country Lords.

"Hahahaha, as expected of a peerless genius who can break score records. The mere Taiyi Alliance wants to target Li Feng? What a pipe dream."

"@Naiwan Liang, you little baka, I just saw you say that if Li Feng wasn't boasting, you'd livestream eating poop. Is your family starving, running here to beg for food and drinks?"

This direct, named mockery made a certain previously very active Sakura Country player's face flush red.

He eventually closed the trade channel dejectedly, not daring to show his face again...
