Chapter 49: A Wonderful Life Started at Dinner!
Night fell. Compared to the darkness of the other lords’ territories, Lin Ye’s place was brightly lit.
Previously, when they opened the treasure chest, more than a hundred lighters dropped. It widened the horizons of the people of the underworld.
At this moment, there were bonfires burning every 50 meters around the territory.
That wasn’t just an addition of a different color to the pitch-black night.
For patrolling teams, this was the greatest a.s.surance.
At this moment, the center of the territory was bustling with activity.
Thousands of people gathered together, eating beef instant noodles while watching the performance on the platform.
The performers were two girls from the seven human beings that Lin Ye had caught previously.
The tall one was called Chu Meng, and the round-faced one was called Liu Yuan.
Before they transmigrated, they were both soph.o.m.ores at xx Music Academy. They majored in popular music and had strong foundations.
A familiar song, ‘Homeland’, set its own unique beauty for their second night of arrival in this strange world.
The cool singing voice lacked the tone of the original singer, but it sounded more sincere.
Lin Ye drank a mouthful of Cola and leaned back on the wooden recliner. His gaze was plain as he quietly listened to the girl’s soft singing.
“What is this place that is still so desolate…”
“That endless journey was so long…”
“Every bitter night in this foreign place…”
“In my dreams, I always see myself walking back home…”
The people of the underworld might not be able to relate to the lyrics, but the nine people present, Lin Ye, Zhang Bao’er, and Zhang Liang, and the rest…
All of them were either in deep thought, looking up at the moon, or taking out their Civilization Archive to chat with their families…
Everyone lost the viciousness they had from killing zombies in the day and gained an additional sense of nostalgia for life on Earth.
Along the way, there were other things that interrupted the occasion.
For example, the haunted house in the north. Sounds at night were a temptation for zombies.
Unfortunately, this was not his first night. On the second day, Lin Ye was extremely powerful.
A thousand soldiers meant that even a small zombie wave could be easily crushed, let alone two or three lone zombies.
The zombies that were attracted by the singing were just giving them free experience points.
An hour later, the banquet ended and the different workers returned to their workplaces.
Since everyone had loyalty above 90%, it was pretty normal for them to work overtime.
Furthermore, 3,000 plus people had been added to the territory. Resting at night together would be a huge problem.
The original 200 Level 1 Tents were definitely not enough.
Fortunately, the bunker had leveled up to Level 5.
In the basic construction, the Level 1 tents and fisheries had all been upgraded to Level 2.
According to the description, each Level 2 tent could hold 20 people.
As long as he upgraded all 200 Level 1 tents, the problem of accommodation would be solved perfectly.
Although this would cost a lot, Lin Ye was still generous to his citizens.
If he had to spend, he would definitely not make do anyhow. He fully embodied the words ‘extravagant’.
Living and accommodation were basic necessities for the citizens.
It was not easy for him to garner loyalty above 90%. He did not dare to be careless.
He directly spent 20,000 Zombie Souls to exchange for 200 Level 2 tent blueprints.
[Level 2 Tent: 100 Wood, 50 Stone, Blueprint, Intermediate Native Worker]
The modification requirements were met by Lin Ye.
During the day, he had increased all his native worker loyalists to the Intermediate level and there was a total of 197 people.
That was more than enough to upgrade the 200 tents.
Lin One led his team and quickly modified the tents.
Upgrading a building was much faster than construction. The tents would definitely be completed before time to sleep.
As for the warehouses and wooden fences, that was a huge project.
Mus Baruch, the only advanced native worker present, led the 1,000 newly recruited native workers to do it.
He made the fences first and during the day he would bring it to the defense circle and fix it there directly. Simple and easy.
If it was fast, it would take four to five days. If it was slow, it would take only around six to seven days to its completion.
Lin Dachui and Tru weren’t idle either. They had both entered a fanatical state.
On one side, Lin Dachui was busy forging equipment in the armory. He made 1,000 sets of light armored shield soldiers’ spears and shields, as well as 500 sets of ranger equipment.
That was not an easy task!
Meanwhile, Tru who had overheard Lin Ye’s whispers during the day could roughly guess his lord’s intentions.
A Cla.s.s 3 Wolf Cavalry Warrior!
Yes, his lord wanted him to be the core of the team.
The Cla.s.s 3 Wolf Cavalry Soldiers who have just been recruited would also be given to him to command.
It was fine if he did not know, but after knowing, he was full of ‘vigor’ and eagerly led his soldiers into the barracks for training.
He wanted to become Cla.s.s 3 as soon as possible. The position of the commander of the Cla.s.s 3 Wolf Cavalry Warriors was going to his!
Adelia and Tru were in a similar situation.
However, since she was injured, leading the training of the 900 plus rangers was relatively slower.
She had to rest well tonight. Tomorrow, the Lord promised her that he would let her take her revenge.
She had to kill that Level 4 Venomous Zombie!
Only the chef, Nicole, was wailing.
Before the banquet, she had finally torn open the Advanced Chef Upgrade Scroll which she had been thinking about, and became an Advanced Chef.
However, the food she made was still despised by her lord.
Although her lord consoled her and said that it was his own problem, Nicole, who simply liked to let her imagination run wild, still felt the stress.
She was holed up in the kitchen, studying about Earth’s delicacies.
If the other lords were here, they would definitely be able to see it.
At this moment, above her head, the increase in her culinary experience was showing +1 ,+1 ,+1…
On the other side, Lin Ye was mult.i.tasking.
He was leveling up his Heart’s Web talent while he chatted with his family using his Civilization Archive.
At the same time, he told his family about the possibility of obtaining a talent by ‘killing’ someone. He reminded them to be careful, to not publicize it or trust others easily if they awakened their talent.
His younger sister, Lin Wei, accepted the fact readily. His parents on the other hand were unhappy and nagged at him.
Something along the lines of how it was wrong to kill and fight and asked him to tell them honestly if he killed someone.
Lin Ye was so frightened that he instinctively moved his Civilization Archive further away. He only went back online after a while.
“I heard about it. It’s hearsay, not from me. I’m so pure and kind-hearted, how could I have done that?”
Lin Ye wiped the sweat off his forehead and quickly found a lame excuse to go offline.
A moment later, beams of white light fell from the sky and intersected before they fused into his forehead.
This startling scene did not meet the expected outcome.
During dinner, the atmosphere became heated because of the promise that they will get to study.
Therefore, Lin Ye had given up on pretending to be a G.o.d. It was even more pointless now.
The group of native workers, soldiers, and rangers glanced up for a while before they continued working.
In their words, with their lord’s unfathomable ability, it was pretty normal for him to have a few upgrade golden, white, and silver beams descending at night.
Don’t look at the lord in a plebian way. His lord was the chosen one. It was a good thing that he did not ascend.
Bling! Bling! Bling!!
Level 2 → Level 3 → Level 4 → Level 5!
Soon, mysterious energy covered his entire body. With the aid of a large number of Zombie Souls, his new talent, the ‘Heart’s Web’, rapidly upgraded.
His five senses were improved beyond imagination as he stepped into Level 5.
