Even though Fang Hao did not speak, he was surprised in his heart.
The skeletons following him were all silent, none of them could talk.
Not only could the skeleton in front of him talk, but it also had feelings.
He didn't even have flesh on his neck, so how was he speaking?
It's not scientifically possible.
No, he himself had traveled through time, science clearly did not apply here.
In spite of his surprise, Fang Hao remembered to respond to the other party.
"Hello Mr. Ruer, I welcome your arrival." Fang Hao greeted with a smile.
"It's my honor." Skeleton Ruer bowed gracefully.
His manners and actions were like those of a well-mannered nobleman, creating a stark contrast against his skeleton form.
"Mr. Ruer, where are the goods? I'd like to take a look at the caravan's goods first." Fang Hao said.
"Of course!"
Ruer tapped his cane on the ground, and a dark tunnel opened up in the adjacent graveyard, and shelves made of bones rose.
Six items were arranged on the shelves.
[Iron Sword Blueprint (white level)] Selling price: 5 Warfire Coins.
[Leather Helmet Blueprint (white level)] Selling price: 3 Warfire Coins.
[Metal Parts Blueprint (white level)] Selling price: 2 Warfire Coins.
[Viscera jar (green level)] Selling price: 50 Warfire Coins.
[Lord's Skill: God's Presence (Undead)] Selling price: 120 Warfire Coins.
[Blank Map] Selling price: 2 Warfire Coins.
(Caravan's stopping time: 4 hours and 26 minutes.)
The purpose of the first three blueprints was obvious, Fang Hao understood their functions.
However, he was unsure about the use of the remaining items.
[Viscera Jar (green level)]
[Item type: Tool]
(Description: The Viscera Jar is an ancient container of the Undead Clan with mysterious energy. It can plunder the viscera of powerful creatures to strengthen the army and worship the gods.)
Seeing the description.
Fang Hao understood the function of the viscera jar.
In modern society, similar things had been mentioned on television.
The Pharaohs of ancient Egypt, after being mummified, stored their organs in a type of container.
The situation seemed similar.
[God's Presence (Undead)]
[Type: Active Skill]
(Description: Allows the lord to inhabit the body of the undead under his command and control it in battle. The lower the level of consciousness of the controlled body, the higher the compatibility.)
On seeing this skill, Fang Hao's eyes instantly lit up.
This skill is quite good.
The most significant feature of the fighters under his command is their lack of intelligence and exceptionally low consciousness.
So, he would definitely have high compatibility.
Moreover, with this skill, his safety could also be guaranteed.
For dangerous places, he could rely on this skill.
Suppressing the feelings of joy in his heart, he continued to inspect the final item, the [Blank Map].
[Blank Map]
[Type: Single Page]
(Description: The explored terrain will be recorded on the map, which can be viewed by the Book of Lords.)
It's also a useful item.
The last time he explored the map, when he was heading towards the Gnoll's camp, he recorded the map on a wooden board.
It was inaccurate and very vague.
This kind of wooden map, one or two days later, he could still recall the image and find the recorded points.
If it was a long time later, he wouldn't be able to find any places even if he looked at the hand-drawn map.
If there was a blank map that could record at any time, then it would be much more convenient.
...
Fang Hao carefully read the product introductions.
The skeleton merchant was also observing Fang Hao's territory.
A village-level territory.
Yet it contained both undead and human buildings, it truly was a magical place.
Of course, a territory of this level also has limited consumption ability.
The goods provided by the caravan directly relate to the territory's level.
The current offerings were only of lower-grade goods.
"How about it? Do you need anything?" The hoarse voice of Skeleton Ruer was heard.
Fang Hao averted his gaze and said: "I'll take everything."
The Warfire Coins in his hand were not many, the system had rewarded him once, he had gained some more from wiping out the Gnoll camp.
It was just enough to buy all the items.
"Thank you for your generosity." Ruer said.
Then he took all the items from the shelves and handed them to Fang Hao.
Three white blueprints were directly recorded into the Book of Lords and they could be viewed under the "Manufacture" page.
The Blank Map also merged into the Book of Lords.
When he opened it again, a fifth page had appeared.
[Resources][Manufacture][Building][Channel]and the newly added[Map].
The Map was shrouded with mist, only the territory range could be visible.
[Lord's Skill: God's Presence, meet the learning conditions, do you want to learn?]
Confirm.
The God's Presence skill-book turned into light entering into Fang Hao's body.
Last was the Viscera Jar, on the earthenware jar, intricate gold patterns were painted.
The jar's lid was a metallic skull the size of a fist, it looked strange.
"Mr. Ruer, when will the goods be replenished next time?" Fang Hao asked.
Although all his Warfire Coins were spent this time, they greatly assisted him.
Money in hand was useless, only by spending it to enhance his strength, could he survive more securely.
Therefore, Fang Hao was already looking forward to the next batch of goods.
"The caravan will arrive with new goods in your territory after seven days." Ruer answered.
For a lord like Fang Hao, who was so decisive and generous, Ruer was also satisfied.
Fang Hao nodded, keeping the number "seven days" in mind.
So, the time for the store to refresh goods is 7 days.
"By the way, if I have goods, can I sell it here?" Suddenly Fang Hao had a thought.
If he could sell items.
With his one hundred times amplification skill, couldn't he earn money in return?
"Not yet. Only when your territory has a registered caravan can you sell items to the market." Ruer had an answer.
"Oh,..., alright!" Fang Hao was helpless.
This is to prevent exploiting a bug.
After a brief chat, Skeleton Merchant Ruer, after a slight bow, walked into the crack of the tomb.
At the same time, a 7-day countdown appeared above the tomb.
...
The skeleton merchant left.
Leaving him alone once again.
It was hard to find someone who could converse, and they left in just a moment.
If he'd known, he would've purchased the items one by one, and chatted more with the skeleton, at least he could've asked if they had a family.
How skeletons recognize female skeletons, how to reproduce offspring.
Show some concern, to strengthen connections.
Now that the person left, if he wanted to chat, he had to wait until after seven days.
Next.
Fang Hao went to the Burial Grounds (Barracks) and planned to recruit soldiers.
In yesterday's fight, he acquired 122 [Wriggling Spines], just enough for a full recruitment.
Skeleton soldiers don't consume food and won't produce any burden.
Naturally, the more the better.
Recruit immediately.
122 spines disappeared, a notice immediately appeared in response.
[Hundred Times Amplification Triggered, 12322 Skeleton Soldiers recruited.]
Instantly, the images of skeletons filled the territory.
Just as he was about to assign tasks to the newly produced skeleton soldiers, a private chat suddenly rang.
It was from Dong Jiayue, who he had traded with in the past.
"Brother Hao, are you there? I want to discuss something with you."
"I am, go ahead!"
Fang Hao initially thought that she had more Shadowstones to exchange with him.
It seemed that it should be something else by now.
"I've explored to the third layer of the tomb, and undead creatures have appeared here. I want to advance some Iron Axes from you for weapons."
