Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead
Chapter 1418 - 988, Flame-sun Arcane Tower

Having returned from the Succubus's residence, a private message promptly sounded.

It was a message from 'Cleolando'.

"Mr. Fang Hao, we have successfully occupied the Ashen Graveyard."

To this, Fang Hao was not surprised at all.

With 'Amanda' around, the style of combat for the team is particularly swift, conducting fast raids and directly targeting the enemy's core of power.

When recapturing the lands of 'Anglina', she employed this combat style, rapidly advancing deep into enemy territory, striking directly at the main city.

As they marched forward, the Mage Corps in the army, due to movement speed issues, were constantly lagging behind.

They were only deployed during the final confrontation at the main city.

The lands of the Undead Desert are vast, and even with high speed, a flat push all the way isn't possible right up to the main city.

However, quickly capturing several cities to pose a threat to the undead region is entirely feasible.

"Hmm, what about the casualties?" Fang Hao continued to inquire.

"The losses are minimal, mainly some infantry units were lost, the Double-Headed Corpse Dragon and archer units have not suffered much," Cleolando replied again.

The combat losses are smaller than what Fang Hao anticipated.

"What's your plan moving forward?"

"Queen Amanda instructed me to organize some transmigrators and then immediately set out to continue the assault."

A small number of transmigrators will not affect the march's speed; moreover, they could use their manufacturing capabilities to supply the army with essentials.

They would serve as a great auxiliary force.

Previously, Fang Hao had not made arrangements; now it was necessary for 'Cleolando' to recruit some local transmigrators.

"Alright, I understand. Proceed with your plan, collect more recruitment resources along the way. If you need to replenish forces, just let me know," Fang Hao advised further.

Little You, carrying the 'Three-Skull Dagger', can open the Gate of the Worlds to the Troop Hiding Cave at any time.

This means that as long as there are sufficient recruitment materials, troops can be dispatched from the Troop Hiding Cave to keep the forces fully manned.

"Understood, also there's one more thing, some transmigrators are not willing to cooperate and may leak information. Should we handle these people first?" Cleolando went on to say.

According to the previous plan by 'Cleolando'.

The transmigrators were resisting the undead, and this was the best time for them to join in.

But it seems from the situation at Cleolando's end, things are not as smooth as previously thought.

Many transmigrators are unwilling to cooperate with Cleolando's plans.

That's not strange; with so many transmigrators, each believes they are extraordinary, waiting for an opportunity to turn the tables and become a big-shot.

Even with unity, there would still be a few who dissent.

Especially in a large-scale battle against the undead.

Not wanting to participate, or planning to sit back and watch, are all very normal reactions.

Focusing on them would hinder progress in other areas.

Straightforwardly answered, "Don't bother about those far away, directly detain the transmigrators around you, forcibly pull them in; those planning mischief, just kill them directly. We have already declared war against the entire undead, no time for hesitation."

"Understood," Cleolando replied, not elaborating further.

After ending the chat.

Fang Hao served himself a glass of fruit wine and returned to his study.

He took out a simplified map of the Undead Desert and spread it out on his desk, examining it carefully.

The information gleaned from the 'Succubus'.

Due to racial characteristics, the Undead Desert is shunned by living creatures.

But its foundation is by no means inferior to the Elf Clan.

Not to mention heroes from various races who opted to transform due to the end of their lifespans.

The military strength could have reached a terrifying level.

After all, the bone tax collected every year, and the military strength transformed from it, accumulates year by year.

A city that may seem to house only a few thousand individuals could possibly dispatch tens or hundreds of thousands of skeletons from hidden troop caves beneath the desert.

After all, skeletons do not eat or drink; standing for decades or even a century poses no problem.

This is exactly why, despite the desert having scarce resources and being unfit for living creature habitation, various species still unite and venture across regions to attack the Undead Desert.

The goal is to curb the expansion of the desert's undead.

Therefore, the actions of Amanda and her team seem well-planned, and the first battle went smoothly.

However, the subsequent battles might not be so smooth.

Of course, Fang Hao did not expect them to truly occupy the entire desert, which is unrealistic.

The attack by Amanda and the resistance of all transmigrators in the undead region.

As long as the area turns chaotic, Fang Hao on his end can find opportunities to deal with the undead demigod and deities.

By controlling the central government to occupy the entire Undead Desert.

Just like the Orc territory.

Of course, all these are plans; being a major race, the undead have countless means and foundations, it definitely won't be as smooth as imagined.

The next step is to wait for the news to come back.

…

Ding~!

Whilst pondering, the sound of a private message rang out again.

Thinking it was 'Cleolando' again, he opened it to find it was from Li Rong.

At this time, Li Rong also held a very high position within the Hundred Cities Federation.

The President of Mages is her mentor, and Rebecca takes great care of her as well.

Moreover, the business of Fairy Dream Tower is growing bigger and more successful.

Employing every modern marketing tactic, most female nobles have become loyal customers of Fairy Dream Tower.

She had both wealth and power, her status still that of a transmigrator, yet not comparable to ordinary nobility.

"Hey, are you there?"

Fang Hao felt somewhat speechless.

Still the same, seemingly never serious about anything.

"Are you customer service? Starting with 'hey'…"

"Don't like it? Or afraid your girlfriends will see?" Li Rong replied.

Fang Hao sat back down at the table and asked, "What's up?"

Not to mention himself, Li Rong was also very busy.

If it's not something important, she generally wouldn't come to chat.

"There is something, I have a chance to get an orange Mage blueprint, are you interested?"

An orange Mage barracks?

Mage-type troops are rare, and orange ones are even harder to obtain.

If you can get an orange Mage blueprint, of course, it's a good opportunity.

"Of course I'm interested, what do you need?" Fang Hao replied directly.

"Any orange-grade Mage equipment, or complete fifty high-level assigned missions. I've already started the missions, but the journey is far, I need you to open a teleportation for me, and also need a dragon for transportation," Li Rong continued.

Fang Hao carefully looked at the information sent by Li Rong.

The Mage Association is a collective organization. Although it has the responsibility to supervise Mages, it cannot forcibly assign missions.

Missions need to be rewarded, letting the Mages complete corresponding tasks.

And the rewards have to match the difficulty of the tasks.

It generally doesn't happen that members laboriously complete tasks and end up at a loss.

The tasks Li Rong mentioned, whether it's an orange equipment or the latter fifty assigned tasks.

They are actually quite fair.

From a transmigrator's perspective, the value of an orange barracks blueprint might not necessarily be lower than an orange equipment.

An equipment piece can only enhance one person.

Once the barracks are built, you can recruit orange troops anytime.

As for fifty missions, the difficulty is definitely not small, or rather are all troublesome missions.

Time-consuming and laborious, and not much fun.

Fang Hao looked at his own blueprints.

He really didn't have an orange Mage armor blueprint, but in weapons, he had two orange Magic Wands that Mages could use.

[Cicada Staff] and [Disaster-reducing Wooden Staff].

Among them, the Cicada Staff tends to be a weapon for priests, bishops.

The effect is mainly to increase faith propagation, magic recovery.

While the 'Disaster-reducing Wooden Staff' tends to be for curse-type professions.

The effect is, skills +22%, accompanied by a 'Disaster' skill.

[Disaster]: Removes all positive statuses from the target and increases all negative status effects by 33%.

Fang Hao thought for a moment, and then chose the 'Disaster-reducing Wooden Staff' for a hundredfold amplification production.

Apart from giving it to Li Rong, now that he has Mage troops, he can also equip the troops.

On the other side, Li Rong was still waiting silently.

Seeing Fang Hao not responding, she got a bit anxious.

Luggage ready, hero troops all set, and he suddenly went silent.

Just as she was about to urge him a couple of times, a private chat reply suddenly appeared.

"Sent it to you."

Li Rong was confused.

I asked you to open a teleportation, what the heck did you send?

Intrigued, she opened the trade slot, and saw an oddly shaped staff.

[Disaster-reducing Wooden Staff (Orange)].

Seeing the attributes, Li Rong's eyes widened.

"Holy crap!"

He actually sent an orange one.

This means he lets me exchange directly, saving the time wasted on doing missions.

After the trade, Li Rong compared the purple Magic Wand in her hand, then put the original weapon aside.

She waved the new Magic Wand to feel its weight and handling.

Felt like it was more suitable for her own use if she took it to exchange.

Then she sent a message saying, "I'll use this one myself, I'll also complete the subsequent missions."

Fang Hao continued to reply, "Sent it to you."

Li Rong frowned, flipped to the trading page, and saw another [Disaster-reducing Wooden Staff] displayed.

And...

Oh my god!

She thought for a moment, then tentatively said, "Actually, my teacher likes collecting staffs, I plan to give her one, it will increase my chances of becoming the head of the Mage Association in the future."

Fang Hao, "Alright, this is the last one, alright? These things, if put on the market, will disrupt the balance."

Li Rong flipped to the trading page again, and indeed saw another Disaster-reducing Wooden Staff.

Three staffs, Fang Hao gave her three orange staffs in one go.

"Do you have a blueprint? Nice, you had a blueprint and didn't even think to give me one, despite me always thinking of you when I have good stuff," Li Rong immediately changed her tone.

"Also got the blueprint yesterday, it's barely been warmed up."

"I exchanged the orange blueprint for you, share the staff blueprint with me," Li Rong continued.

Fang Hao replied, "No, you don't have much combat on your side, letting these equipments leak out is dangerous for you, I'll share some purple blueprints with you later, let's talk about the orange ones later."

Li Rong didn't have much of a choice.

Her territory is near Silver Wing City, there wouldn't be much combat anyway.

Indeed she wouldn't need them.

"Alright then, keep some Mage equipment for me."

"Okay."

Soon, Li Rong directly sent a barracks blueprint.

[Flame-sun Arcane Tower Construction Blueprint (Orange)].
