Chapter 81

Chapter 81 – Sky High

The territory, in front of the castle .

Three blue light shone up . The light flashed, and three figures appeared from it .

Tang Yu and his team had returned from Lindong .

Tang Yu returned to the master bedroom in his castle and laying down on his back after he dismissed Elaine and Gray Blade .

“Ah… so comfy . We only left for three days, but it sure felt like a whole season had passed . ”

Suddenly, he remembered his dirty clothes and body . Tang Yu frowned, but he didn’t move . The castle had the automatic dust removal and purification function anyway, along with some other semi-automatic and automated cleaning facilities . Before the doomsday, this place must be a heaven for lazy people .

It’s a pity that the doomsday almost cured his laziness, but living in the castle made him lazy again .

“I wonder what happened to Lin Wei . Is he dead?”

Although he said that, he understood that Lin Wei was still alive . As soon as he discovered Lin Wei had many hunters under his wings, Tang Yu had no plan to initiate an attack . He was having a hard time dealing with Scarlet Hands, who had a smaller number of men . Naturally, he didn’t dare to directly challenge Lin Wei who had a large number of strong hunters .

It’s better for him to return to the territory and improve everything while he thinks about how to defeat Lin Wei and his men .

As soon as he left, he was reluctant .

It made sense now why there were so many explosives in Scarlet Hand’s treasure house .

Lin Mingjie’s father was wealthy .

After a brief rest, Tang Yu went to the storage room and took out the small box where he stored the spirit stones .

His heart beat fast after he saw the continuously increasing spirit stones value in the system panel . Tang Yu felt pleased . Life’s good when you had money . But life would be better if you found someone else’s money .

The spirit stones value finally stopped at a five digits, starting with the number 8 .

Looking at the spirit stones value, Tang Yu got lost in his thought .

Not that he was unhappy, but he thought his way of making money was a bit crooked from his original plan . He originally planned to kill demonic beasts to earn money . But now that he carefully thought about it, the spirit stones extracted from the demonic beast weren’t that much .

On the contrary, several windfalls became his main income .

“If that doesn’t work, I have to hunt down the demonic beast for spirit stones . I should open the market to earn more . How could a decent person like me had a distorted talent for making money?”

Tang Yu had ideas in his mind .

First of all, he’s going to spend his spirit stones .

Now he had more than 80000 spirit stones . The spirit stones earned by Roger and the patrol teams and the defensive structure must be near 9000 spirit stones .

That was undoubtedly a large sum of money .

But it’s also too small . The cost to upgrade or to construct a new building required a lot of money . These tens and thousands of spirit stones wouldn’t last long .

He had to spend the money wisely on important things .

“First of all, I’m going to upgrade the castle level . The most important building required castle level 3 to unlock it . ”

More importantly, the territory would expand after he upgraded the castle . According to his estimation, the territory would spread to the edge of the spirit stone mines in the mountain forest .

He was greedy for the spirit stone mine .

That time, the demonic beast attacked in the mines were only a small number compared to what’s hiding under the tree . Tang Yu had no idea about the exact number of the demonic beast on the pit was .

They couldn’t clear the demonic beast to ascend to the surface, even with No . 1 and No . 2’s strength . There were some high-ranked demonic beasts among them . Recalling the situation on the abyss’ crack, Tang Yu felt that he was really lucky to escape the mine alive .

This time, Tang Yu had to prepare carefully .

For example, build a defensive building on the edge of the mine .

It’s a great strategy . In strategy games, he liked to place a defensive building in front of the enemy’s base .

Shortly after, Tang Yu selected a castle upgrade from the core building list on the system panel .

“Ding! Level 2 castle will be upgraded to level 3 castle, consume 10000 units of spirit stones to upgrade . Yes/No?”

He confirmed with yes .

At the next moment, Tang Yu was surprised .

He didn’t feel any movement in the castle . But he could feel the castle changed .

Its original shape remained . But on the outside of the original castle, there were a lot of new buildings . They linked together and turned into a proper castle complex .

Tang Yu didn’t see the change with his own eyes as if he knew that should’ve happened .

Ding! Level 3 castle unlocked a new feature: remote control .

[Remote control: The Lord can control the territory remotely, even if the Lord is not within the territory . Such as constructing a territory building, using a functional building, etc . ]

Tang Yu’s eyes brightened .

He had wasted the market items refresh and daily free summon attempts from the pub . It was still heartbreaking . Even if he couldn’t summon a high-ranked adventurer, he always wanted with the pub’s current level .

But the summoning attempt would be much more convenient in the future with such a function . Most of the time, he’d stay within the territory . But occasionally he had to go out somewhere .

“So, the new feature is remote control ability . ”

Tang Yu looked at the territory map in the system panel and suddenly realized that he didn’t need it anymore . He closed his eyes and concentrated . The territory map emerged in his mind .

Including the yellow-green dots .

This map was even more detailed than before . It included all the territory terrains .

Suddenly, he remembered something . He summoned the floating crystal ball with his mind .

Previously, the function of the crystal ball was to detect and warn . Its display screen was much more detailed than the territory map .

At this time, he controlled it with his mind . The crystal ball glowed, and a scene appeared .

It wasn’t a map, but a complete view like he was looking down the territory from the sky . It showed everything within the territory .

“Let’s take a closer look . ”

Tang Yu controlled its perspective . He saw the survivors at work, the patrols were patrolling the area with a gun, and he even saw some demonic beasts roaming in the outer periphery .

With the crystal ball, Tang Yu’s eyes could inspect every corner of the territory .

After some time, the lens of the crystal ball returned to the castle .

Tang Yu zoomed in on the camera, wanted to enjoy the beautiful view of the castle .

But suddenly, the camera shot through the castle wall, inside a room .

The room was foggy .

Tang Yu was stunned . This lens also came with a wall penetration view function .

And why was there such a foggy room inside the castle?

His eyes widened . He heard the sound of running water .

In the room, there was a delicate figure in the bathtub . Her wet ice-blue hair fell on the snow bright skin .

Tang Yu couldn’t help but stare .

The mist filled the bathroom, blocking his sight from the dazzling view .

He just continued staring .
