[Hardwood Shield (White): Serves L, hardwood planks, 2 hemp ropes.]

Even for items that possess the same white attribute, there’s still a range of quality and capability.

The shields that Fang Hao currently provided to his skeletons are at the lower end of the white attribute, made out of common wood. In contrast, hardwood shields, which also have a white attribute, are significantly stronger than their wood counterparts.

As Fang Hao was enjoying his grilled meat, he became interested in the other party’s message.

After giving it some thought, he decided to ask for the other players’ asking price.

Immediately, he privately messaged the other player, asking, “What do you want to trade for it?”

“Holy shit, Fang Hao, big boss. If it’s a trade, it would depend on the type of spear you have.” The other player replied.

Spears come in different varieties.

Currently, the market offers a wood spear, bone spear, and stone spear, all of which possess a white attribute of quality.

Of course, they also come in different degrees of quality.

Without giving it much thought, Fang Hao replied, “Iron Spear!”

“Holy shit! The big boss already has iron weapons. Damn!”

Upon hearing that Fang Hao obtained a blueprint for an iron spear, the other player couldn’t help but get excited.

“What would you like to trade? Let me consider,” Fang Hao asked again.

It seemed the other player was lost in thought as there was a pause before they replied, “I have 12 militia, can I exchange them for 13 iron spears?”

“A white color blueprint isn’t worth that many iron spears,” Fang Hao responded.

[Iron Spear: Serves 2 wood, 2 iron.]

If manufactured according to the recipe, crafting 13 iron spears would require 26 units of iron.

At present, in the region, no lord has reported the discovery of an iron mine. Hence, iron resources remain scarce.

Although Fang Hao enjoys the benefits of hundredfold amplification, he has to be careful not to disrupt the market rules with his abilities.

Transactions should still generally adhere to the market price.

“Big boss, I genuinely need these weapons. Please help a brother out and advise how many you can give,” understanding his initial ask was high, the other player urged Fang Hao to name his price after the initial refusal.

After a moment of pondering, Fang Hao responded, “I can only give you three iron spears, but if you have 5 units of iron, I can give you 10 damaged iron spears as a temporary measure.”

Fang Hao then sent the characteristics of the [Damaged Iron Spear].

The damaged iron spear, a spoil of war from defeating the zombie spearmen in the old castle.

It’s quite different from a regular iron spear and is already full of rust, worn out heavily.

Since there were no blacksmiths in his territory, nobody could repair the equipment. So, it would be better to sell them.

However, even in their damaged state, they are still stronger and more lethal than ordinary wood or bone spears.

“Big Boss, can you cut me some slack? I only have three units of iron. Can we do the deal with that? I’ll repay the remaining two units later,” he pleaded.

“Okay, list them!”

The two players, via a dedicated channel, quickly completed the trade.

Three iron spears and ten damaged iron spears disappeared, and Fang Hao ended up with a blueprint of a hardwood shield and three pieces of iron.

After saving it to his Book of Lords, the conditions to make the hardwood shield were lit up.

Both players ended their private chat.

And switched back to public chat.

“The hardwood shield blueprint has already been traded with Big Boss Fang Hao. No need to PM me anymore. By the way, Big Boss Fang Hao is awesome!” “What’s going on? Did you get the AK? You seem so excited.”

“What the hell did you exchange? I just upgraded to a stone spear.”

“Did Big Boss Fang Hao already have iron spears?”

“Shit, Big Boss is awesome. I also want iron weapons.”

“Big boss is awesome…”

Fang Hao swallowed his last piece of grilled meat and closed the chat.

Clearly, his development speed far exceeded most lords.

Although it’s an encouraging sign, he can’t get arrogant and complacent.

There were too many people from different walks of life crossing over into this world, with countless professionals among them.

People die here every day.

If he wanted to survive and thrive, he should keep improving himself and his territory tirelessly.

After taking a sip of water to rinse his mouth, he instructed a few skeletons to boil some water as he planned to take a good bath before bed.

He did not have the luxury before, but now he did.

He had all the amenities now, so he could afford to relax a bit.

Fang Hao rose from his chair, brushed his butt.

He walked around his territory before stopping by an open space near Burial Grounds.

He planned to build the Skeleton Transformation Field here.

[Skeleton Transformation Field (Rare): Serves 500 wood, 500 stone, 50 hemp ropes, 5 shadowstones.]

(Description: The Skeleton Transformation field can convert the buried organism/bones into skeletal soldiers. Depending on the type of organism, the required number of offerings will be consumed for recruiting.)

The Skeleton Transformation Field was fundamentally different from a barrack.

It required you to capture creatures to unlock related soldier types.

Once you have unlocked, you can sacrifice offerings to recruit.

After selecting the location, Fang Hao started the construction.

A ray of light ascended, and a building appeared before Fang Hao.

The Skeleton Transformation Field had a tombstone about two meters high, and in front of it was a pool circled by stones, around five meters in diameter. Inside the pool was soft soil, uneven and rugged.

It looked like a dry swimming pool.

“Go and bring the corpses of Bloodthirsty Wolfbats here,” Fang Hao commanded.

Two skeleton soldiers went to the resource pile.

In a few trips, they brought the corpses of six Bloodthirsty Wolfbats.

“Throw one corpse in,” Fang Hao continued.

He was curious to see how exactly the Transformation Field works.

What would a corpse transform into?

Obeying Fang Hao’s command, the two skeleton soldiers tossed one of the Bloodthirsty Wolfbat corpses into the pool.

[Bloodthirsty Wolfbat corpse, confirm to transform into skeleton soldier type?]

Transform!

The next second, the soil in the pool became soft like marshland.

The corpse of the Bloodthirsty Wolfbat sank slowly, bit by bit, swallowed by the earth.

A minute later, the transformation was completed.

[Transformation Completed, gained Skeleton Giant Bat soldier type]

The next moment.

A skeleton Giant Bat suddenly flew out from the soil and landed on an open space nearby.

The giant bat was made up entirely of white bones, except for its wings. The semi-transparent meat membrane was still intact, providing the ability to fly.

[Skeleton Giant Bat (Tier 3)]

[Faction: Undead]

[Racial Traits: Undead, Hollow Skeleton, Vulnerability to Light]

[Skills: Dive Attack]

[Innate Abilities: Intermediate Flight Mastery]

(Remark: Skeleton soldiers transformed from corpses retain the characteristics and attack style of their previous life.)

Previously, the Bloodthirsty Wolfbat was as large as a grown wolf, with a wingspan reaching about three meters.

The current Skeleton Giant Bat, however, was noticeably smaller, more the size of a vulture, and the soldier rank was reduced from Tier 5 to 3.

It seemed that the Transformation Field downgrades the strength during the transformation process.

Most importantly, the transformed soldier couldn’t trigger the hundredfold augmentation, and Fang Hao only got one Skeleton Giant Bat.

“Throw all the corpses in,” Fang Hao commanded.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The remaining five corpses of the Bloodthirsty Wolfbats were thrown into the Transformation Field. In a short while, five other Tier 3 Skeleton Giant Bats came out and landed nearby.

“Not bad.”

Fang Hao nodded, satisfied. Although it fell short of his expectation, it filled the gap in his air-combat unit..
