Everyone seems to recognize me, wherever I go, they gave a bow despite whatever they are doing.
I should make it a rule that you shouldn't bow, I guess. I'm tired of raising my hands, you know.
I soon entered the laboratory of Barn Jones, since I haven't heard any recent news plus, it just happened to be in front of my path I walked in.
The young man was heavily focused in his work, I wonder if he even have an assistant.
As I was thinking if I should suggest one, a girl entered my line of sight, she was also wearing the same clothes as Barn, long white coat, gloves, a huge glass...
He's not so incompetent after all huh, I left silently and didn't disturb the two.
Now that I remember, I don't think I ever allocate any funds to him to research the walls.
I opened the tab, sold 10k magic cores and transfer 100k gold to Barns with a note, *Fundings for the walls*
I could hear a loud scream of joy as I was on my way out, fufu, I'm such a generous lord.
I'm way too magnanimous for my own good.
The village isn't that large and I had made a full circle around the place and had many time to spare.
The fact that this little village is inside the 1st wall and I could even figure out space to construct a castle with a huge surroundings, I wonder how long the walls really are....
For just 500 gold, I could circle a huge area, hmm, I should make more circle and maybe try for 10 walls to surround me!
As I enjoy in my own dream, Barn Jones ran in, clearly exhausted yet brimming with joy.
"Long live, your majesty!" he instantly knelt down.
Probably a Benny influence... After having him stand up, he began to speak with excitement.
"With the new funds, I ventured into paths I dare not take before and now I've found a substance mixture. With the new formula, walls can reach level 10. And it's 2x higher than the original walls. It can support the extended height!
And, this new potion, mixed with a magic core, you can enchant items to provide (10% more efficiency effect!)."
I got no clue on what this efficiency thing is for but if he says it's good, it's good.
I'm more excited about the wall rather than the new enchanted item.
I should personally see to the walls, as I send out Barn ,my brain started to calculate the cost of the walls.
1st wall -> level 7 (500 gold per upgrade.)
2nd wall -> level 7 (1,000 gold per upgrade.)
3rd wall -> level 7 (5,000 gold per upgrade.)
4th wall -> level 4 (10,000 gold per upgrade.)
A quick calculation shows it'll take another 80k gold coins which is just chump change for me.
Still, I don't plan on touching my magic cores, I'll accumulate wealth, it's not like I'm in any urgency to max out the walls.
As I was aiming to bide my time, 3 days and I got a notice from the system.
In case you wanna know, my magic cores count is already at 263.6k . Already capped in 3 days, insane right?
Benny nor Barns had appeared to ask for funds so I assume I'm financially stable as of late.
The issue was, 7 days from today, another potential invasion is coming.
Who am I even bordering that can send thousands of troops regularly? The invaders definitely raise the same flag as the one in my last invasion.
I've a feeling that they've come prepared and I'm hating this.
