Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead

Looking at the densely packed blueprints, Fang Hao's eyes widened as well.

In this world second, there were indeed no shortage of blueprints.

After his surprise,

Fang Hao began to take inventory of the blueprints.

First up were the construction blueprints.

The "Dragon Blood Laboratory" was a building that improved bloodlines, effectively serving the same purpose as his own "Sorcery Sanctum."

The Sorcery Sanctum consumed materials to improve the level of skills.

The "Dragon Blood Laboratory," however, improved physical strength, although the enhancement was relative and couldn't truly match the physique of the Dragon Clan.

The construction condition was a Dragon Clan camp, meaning he couldn't build it in his main city.

But that was not entirely impossible; after all, the city of "Aerygon" was still available.

The "Pterodactyl Riders Camp," "Pseudo-Dragon Nest," and "Dragon Power Swordsman Training Ground" were all purple blueprints for military barracks that recruited Pterodactyl Riders and Pseudo-Dragons.

The prerequisite for building was still the Dragon Clan camp.

The blueprints weren't bad, but it was a shame he couldn't meet the construction conditions.

Fang Hao skimmed over the rest of the building blueprints but did find one that was useful.

Shadow Screen Dome Machine (Purple): Ironized Wood 220, Fine Stone Brick 180, Fine Iron 50, Precision Parts 22, Essence of Magic 2, Perfect Essence 1.

(Description: A spectacle building; once constructed, the owning city cannot be recorded by the map.)

A spectacle building offered not utility, but rather, special abilities.

And this "Shadow Screen Dome Machine" provided the ability to not be recorded on the map.

Although this effect had a limited practical use, it did add a degree of concealment.

After recording all the construction blueprints,

Fang Hao continued to check the equipment blueprints.

There were many pieces of equipment; aside from those for Pterodactyls and Pseudo-Dragons, there were also quite a few excellent blueprints.

Agile Dragon Rider's 'Set' Crafting Blueprint (Purple).

Level five defense.

Set effect: Maximum Health +20%, Movement Speed of flying mounts +25%, Physical Strength +10%, Physical Defense +20%.

A purple Dragon Knight set would be top-tier equipment even on the world channel.

Fine Iron Lion Shield (Purple): Thick Leather 12, White Steel Ingot 8, Fine Iron 5, Fine Iron Ingot 3, Metal Parts 12, Rich Essence 1.

White Steel Lance (Blue): Thick Leather 3, Cast Iron Block 5, White Steel Ingot 4, Metal Parts 6.

Magic High Crown (Blue): Linen Cloth 12, Soft Leather 8, Silk 5, Spun Thread 22, Mithril 3.

Thief's Shoulder Guards (Blue): .......

....

Fang Hao was checking one blueprint after another.

Many of the pieces of equipment were very practical.

Even if they were of no use to him personally, they would become hot merchandise if put on sale in the channel shop.

He didn't look too closely at the subsequent 'window,' 'wooden door,' 'stone chair,' and other blueprints.

They weren't of much use at present.

After recording all the blueprints,

Fang Hao's gaze returned to Aerygon, who was tied up assuredly.

Getting so many blueprints made him much less angry.

"Open his mouth."

Nisbit unwrapped the burlap from his mouth.

After taking two deep breaths, Aerygon immediately said, "Mr Fang Hao, I was wrong. I won't try to be clever again. I truly admit my mistake."

Fang Hao glanced at him and sat down again to the side.

He asked in a soft voice, "Besides Beata, what other levels of heroes does the Dragon Clan have?"

Aerygon was taken aback, then hurriedly replied, "Many. When dragons ascend to heroes, their rank quickly increases. It only slows down once they reach orange. The biggest flaw of the Dragon Clan is their low reproductive rate. Throughout Dragon Tooth Mountain, very few of the Dragon Clan can be seen."

His answer was quite comprehensive.

"Are there any heroes above the orange level?" Fang Hao continued to ask.

Aerygon hesitated but finally said, "I have never seen any, but there should be higher-level heroes!"

"How so?"

"The Dragon Clan has an Elder Council and a leader, and it would stand to reason that they are of a higher rank than Beata. These are all my conjectures, and they may not be accurate," Aerygon continued to reply.

Beata was tight-lipped about internal information of the Dragon Clan.

Now, some answers were obtained from Aerygon.

There still existed an Elder Council, which sounded like it was a structure similar to human society.

Fang Hao nodded but did not keep questioning.

"Mr Fang Hao, I know what I did wrong. Could you give me a chance? Please don't kill me. Whatever you need, I'll try my best to cooperate," Aerygon said when he saw Fang Hao was not continuing the questioning.

Fang Hao glanced at him.

It seemed that he could be a source of information.

For now, he would be locked up in the Blood Prison. If there was anything he wanted to ask later, he could continue questioning him.

After all, Aerygon wasn't as tough as Beata.

After coming to a decision, Fang Hao said, "Take him to the Blood Prison. If he attempts to escape, execute him on the spot."

Nisbit picked him up and began to walk out.

Aerygon did not struggle and allowed himself to be taken away.

...

After Aerygon left,

Fang Hao opened the Book of Lords and got in touch with Dong Jiayue.

He sent a message asking, "Is Amanda busy? I need her to come here."

Dong Jiayue quickly replied, "Amanda asks what it is about."

"Oh, I've captured a few prisoners, and it's not convenient to kill them right now. I need her to seal a couple of gold blocks," Fang Hao said.

"Amanda says she's busy right now and will notify you when it's time to pick her up."

"Alright!"

After ending the chat, he was just about to go out.

Then he saw "Rolana" flying in directly and took a seat on a wooden chair nearby, crossing her long, black silk-clad legs.

"Finished with your work?"

"Yes, I'm temporarily finished. I have to go out to build a structure," Fang Hao replied.

"There are not enough shovels in the warehouse; make more when you can," Rolana said.

Fang Hao curiously asked, "What do you need the shovels for?"

Shovels are not the small cooking spatulas but mean for digging.

Rolana turned her head, saying, "Well, I'm overseeing some people to expand the river outside the city. You don't need to worry about these things; just make the iron shovels."

Well done, they had just finished battling with the Dragon Clan.

The recovery construction should start here.

"Okay, I got it. I'll make it for you later."

Laurana's lips curled into a smile as her gaze fell on the 'Sword of Champion' beside her. She picked it up and swung it a few times.

"This sword isn't bad. Whose is it?"

"Just got it as battle loot."

"Oh, then it's mine. I haven't had a fitting weapon yet," Laurana continued.

Laurana had a proficiency in swordsmanship in her attributes. She used swords in close combat.

She used to have a blood-red longsword, only it got lost somewhere in the fight against the Red Duke.

Laurana wasn't in a good state at that time, and no one dared to question.

"You want a sword?"

Indeed, in last night's battle, the ordinary purple longswords she used all became nicked and dull. It was time to equip Laurana with a weapon that suited her.

"What? You don't feel like giving me one?" Laurana raised an eyebrow.

"Heh, glowering at me? Who are you trying to intimidate?"

Then, he took a dark red giant sword out of the storage and handed it to her.

"Can you use a heavy sword? This is an orange weapon we obtained last time," Fang Hao continued.

'Hatred Tooth,' an orange weapon dropped by the Demon Hero. Fang Hao was still somewhat reluctant to hand it over to her.

One of the weapon's attributes was a 'hatred' effect, which was a bit dangerous.

Hatred: Increases the 'Flame' effect by 5% every ten minutes, and the holder loses 5% of 'Rationality' (recovers gradually after combat ceases).

This thing, in Laurana's hands, indeed made him fear she might lose control.

But ordinary purple weapons wouldn't last long in her hands.

With the recent threats from the Dragon Clan, after considering it, he decided to let Laurana use it.

If she really lost control because of the weapon, it must be a life-and-death crisis already for the Dark Gold Hero.

Whether she lost control or not wouldn't make much difference then.

Seeing the somewhat sinister-looking weapon, Laurana's eyes lit up.

"Where did you obtain it?"

"Got it after killing the Demon Hero. If you like it, I'll give it to you," said Fang Hao.

Laurana picked up the giant sword and vigorously swung it through the air.

With each swing, a blaze followed.

"Not bad; I like it." Laurana nodded in satisfaction.

[The Beauty of the Lonely Night - Laurana Ann Tobias has increased her Loyalty to you by 1 point. Current Loyalty: 100.]

[Hero under your command 'The Beauty of the Lonely Night - Laurana Ann Tobias' has reached 100 points of Loyalty and will not be affected by any sowing discord, betrayal, or other states of division.]

Fang Hao was delighted to see the notification.

100 points.

The final point had finally been increased.

Had he known this, he would have given it to her sooner.

"Do you have a storage space item?" Laurana continued to ask.

"Uh… no. Later, I'll ask Doujin to keep an eye out in the Trade Alliance. If there's one available, I'll buy it for you," Fang Hao said immediately.

"Okay, thanks."

Fang Hao took a step forward. "Is that a perfunctory thank you?"

"What do you want then...?"

"Of course, something substantial."

He cradled her face in his hands and kissed her deeply.

…

In the afternoon.

At the City Hall of Furious Lion City, Fang Hao appeared with Laurana.

This caused the Orcs, who were in a meeting, to be collectively startled.

"Lord, Miss Laurana," Bronze Bull immediately paid his respects.

He had seen Laurana, although only once, but the impression was quite profound.

The rest of the Orcs, hearing it was their Lord, also paid their respects in unison.

Fang Hao nodded, "Are you in a meeting?"

"Just finished, my Lord!" Bronze Bull said.

"Good. Let everyone go back first; I have something to discuss with you," Fang Hao continued.

Bronze Bull nodded and immediately had all the Orcs leave.

If there were any matters, they would be called back.

After the hall was left with only three people and a few Minotaur guards.

Fang Hao continued, "Last night, was anything unusual spotted over the skies of Furious Lion City?"

"There were no abnormalities detected!" Bronze Bull answered.

The Dragon Clan's Flying units could reach above the clouds.

Coupled with the night, it was difficult for people below to detect anything above.

Fang Hao nodded and said, "Yesterday, the Dragon Clan came from the east and launched an attack on the main city."

Bronze Bull was taken aback before his expression drastically changed.

The main city had been attacked.

And it was attacked from the east side.

"It was an oversight on my part. Please, my Lord, punish me," Bronze Bull stood up and immediately knelt on one knee.

The reason a faction's main city is at the center is because of its importance.

In the event of a war, it's the peripheral cities that first receive the news and protect the central city.

Now, they had not detected a thing, and the main city was almost breached.

Fang Hao waved it off. "It's not your fault. It's normal that you didn't detect the Dragon Clan flying that high."

After Bronze Bull got up.

Fang Hao continued, "I came to discuss some matters with you this time."

"Please command me, my Lord."

"Starting now, enhance the patrol in the Orc territory. If the Dragon Clan appears, notify me immediately! Furthermore, I will arrange for Undead air troops to patrol the skies so that the Dragon Clan won't pass through again," Fang Hao stated his purpose directly.

"Understood, my Lord. I will immediately make the arrangements."
