Rowling stared at the virtual panel in front of her, slightly stunned.
She hadn't expected Gale to reject her friend request.
Rowling was a goddess recognized by millions of people!
Many people wanted to add her as a friend, but Gale rejected her directly!
After a long time, Rowling said to herself,
"Someone as good as Gale must have had a lot of people adding him. He probably wrongly deleted my request."
"Yes, that's it."
How would Gale feel if he knew what Rowling was thinking?
As the saying goes, don't try to guess a woman's thoughts.
Because you can never guess her mind.
After 'figuring out' what had made her unhappy, Rowling opened the [Trading Channel].
Her gaze lingered on the merchandise Gale had put up.
It was still the same expensive price.
However, no matter how expensive it was, it was still sought after by many people.
"This person is good at everything, but he's a little greedy."
At this moment, Rowling treated Gale as a man who only knew how to make quick money.
The food she sold was half the price of Gale's, which was considered generous.
Selling the foods didn't matter to Rowling at all, because she didn't care about her returns.
What she wanted was to spread her reputation throughout the circle of Castle Lords and let more of them know about her.
This way, in the future when the Castle Lords began to compete for hegemony, she could use the foundation that she had established now to rope in some powerful allies and form an alliance with them!
Sometimes, strength was important, but a good team was also worth having.
This would be a sustained investment.
Rowling believed that she would definitely receive a generous reward in the future.
That was what she had intended to do.
After all, Gale's strength had spread throughout the circle.
As the first group of Castle Lord who hunted monsters, the commotion caused was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
According to her understanding, there were already people secretly trying to rope Gale in.
However, based on the current situation, those people probably didn't succeed either.
"Looks like I can only talk to him when we meet in the future."
Rowling was interested in befriending Gale. Unlike the other castle lords, she wanted to befriend Gale so they could look out for each other in the future if either of them met with difficulties.
She firmly believed that the soldiers Gale summoned were definitely top-notch.
It might even surpass her Golden Lion!
This was also the main reason Rowling wanted to rope Gale in.
Strength was everything!
At this moment, a deafening roar was heard.
Rowling was forced out of her thoughts by the sound.
"Tier 5 monster — Barbaric Bull!"
She quickly recognized the owner of the voice. It was obviously not the first time she had heard this voice.
Rowling did not show the slightest hint of fear. Instead, she felt a little impatient.
"I can't defeat that Tier 5 Barbaric Bull for now. I'll wait a few more days."
"I might even be able to obtain Origin Crystals after killing him."
Origin Crystals could only be dropped by Tier 5 monsters or higher. Like the Origin Edges, there was a chance that they would drop, but it was not a hundred percent.
If one was unlucky, they might not even be able to get an Origin Crystal loot even after killing 10 Tier 5 monsters.
The probability of an Origin Crystal dropping was even lower than an Origin Edge.
The higher the difficulty, the more precious the Origin Crystal became.
Origin Crystals were mainly used to upgrade the military buildings.
"Come back."
Rowling used her mind to recall all her Golden Lions.
The highest level of her battle units was only at Tier 3. If she encountered that bull, she could only stand and wait for death.
Sometimes, even the slightest bit of strength could result in death, let alone when the difference between every level was like an insurmountable ravine.
...
At the same time, Gale was lying leisurely on the rocking chair and eating the fruits off the plate that was prepared for him.
At the moment, there was probably no one could be as carefree as him.
Suddenly, Gale felt his nose itch.
Achoo!
Gale rubbed his itching nose.
This was already his sixth sneeze in a few days.
Needless to say, it was definitely done by those people who had called him a 'profiteer'.
Gale squirmed slightly and changed his position. His life was very comfortable.
Of course, he did not just immerse himself in it.
With less than six days left, the end of the protection period loomed closer.
He had to make the best use of this opportunity to enjoy himself. Once the seven-day protection period was up, he might not be able to live such a leisurely life in the future.
Even if he had the intention to hunt monsters with the soldiers, his own strength would not allow it!
Gale's current strength was only at Tier 1. With such strength, he could only be cannon fodder.
He might as well rest in the castle.
Right now, he was more like a doll placed in a showcase room.
Only when there were corpses did he then come up to disintegrate them.
It was quite nice to lie here when there was nothing to do.
Of course, he would sometimes check the information shown in [World Chat] to understand more about the Endless Land.
Gale spent nearly half a day understanding the basic information of the Endless Land.
Endless Land.
A piece of vast territory.
There were countless monsters and magical beasts here, all of which posed a great threat to the Castle Lords.
Due to the existence of the seven-day protection period, no one had seen the true brutal side of monsters.
As for the billion Castle Lords, they had all been teleported into this territory.
However, there were also native factions in the Endless Territories, including many small countries and some large empires.
Fortunately, these castle lords seemed to have been teleported to a place far away from these factions, so they wouldn't die at the beginning.
However….
Gale was certain that it was only a matter of time before he encountered these native Empires.
Once you reach a certain stage, you will definitely attract some people's attention.
At the same time, he was observing the Castle Lords who often spoke.
Most of the battle units summoned by the Castle Lords were intermediate battle units, with few summoning advanced tier battle units.
As for the pinnacle battle units, there were even fewer.
Even if someone did, they would have kept it a secret.
"Based on my current development, as long as nothing goes wrong, I will definitely be able to pass this test."
"I need to get some more materials, I'm almost able to upgrade the castle again today."
Gale took inventory of the materials he currently had.
6,500 units of wood, 2,500 units of stone.
The speed at which he collected resources was very fast, he was already a huge step ahead of others.
Naturally, the source of these resources was obtained through the joint efforts of Elena and Cicely.
Apart from transporting the corpses back, they spent the rest of their time hunting monsters in the forest.
At that moment, the howl of a wolf was heard.
Gale stood on the observation tower of the castle. He could clearly see a few white lights emitting from the forest from time to time, mixed with some flames.
"Have they encountered danger?"
