68: Six fat sheep are delivered to your door, activate the hoarding bonus

Throughout the entire process, Bai Lingyue simply watched quietly, a enchanting smile playing on her lips.

Only when she confirmed that everyone was dead did she withdraw her gaze.

Mo Yan looked at the gradually calming battlefield ahead, his expression as still as water.

His gaze swept over the corpses strewn across the ground, as the wind and snow howled, carrying a faint scent of blood.

This invasion finally ended with the complete annihilation of the enemy.

[Tip: You successfully killed enemy Lord John (Lv4) and gained a massive amount of experience!]

[Tip: You successfully killed a Rank 4 Lord and obtained 1x Common Quality Blueprint (Random)!]

[Tip: You obtained 50% of Lord John's current resources!]

[Tip: You successfully killed enemy Lord Clive (Lv3) and gained a massive amount of experience!]

[Tip: You successfully killed enemy Lord… 1x Blueprint (Random)!]

...

A series of System prompts rang out in Mo Yan's mind.

His eyebrows raised slightly, and surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Blueprint?"

Killing a Lord actually dropped a Blueprint, which was an unexpected surprise.

The development of his territory lacked various Blueprints the most, whether for buildings, items, or weapons and equipment.

He hoped these random Blueprints would yield good things.

What excited him even more was the astonishing amount of resources.

With a thought, Mo Yan's consciousness sank into his Talent Space.

Mountains of resources came into view, with wood and stone far exceeding his previous total inventory.

iron ore, shimmering with metallic luster, also piled up into a small mountain, a very considerable amount.

In addition, there was a good amount of food, gold coins, primal stones, and even some unique Materials and Ore he didn't recognize.

This windfall completely exceeded Mo Yan's previous imagination!

"How many Dragon Kingdom Lords did these guys… plunder to accumulate so much wealth?"

Mo Yan secretly clicked his tongue; the quantity of these resources was comparable to the total he had painstakingly developed over so many days.

With this batch of resources, the development of his territory could be greatly accelerated!

The System prompts continued.

[Tip: Your hero Bai Lingyue participated in killing multiple enemy Lords and heroes, gaining a large amount of experience, and her Rank has increased to LV3!]

[Tip: Your Soldiers gained a large amount of experience, and some Soldiers' Rank increased to LV2!]

[Tip: All resources obtained by killing Lords have been automatically stored in your Talent Space!]

Including this recent battle, Bai Lingyue had already gained 2 Ranks today.

Mo Yan's lips curled slightly; although this time was dangerous, the gains were equally immense.

"War… is indeed the fastest shortcut to wealth."

However, he felt no joy in his heart; instead, he became even more vigilant.

War could bring huge profits, but it could also bring devastating blows.

Today, he won.

But what if he had lost today?

If Bai Lingyue and Gun Gun hadn't been able to stop the enemy's heroes, if the wooden wall had been breached…

The consequences would have been unimaginable; his territory would have been razed to the ground, and he himself would likely not have escaped death.

In this world, it was the law of the jungle, allowing no room for luck.

"My Lord."

Bai Lingyue's voice came from behind him, interrupting Mo Yan's thoughts.

She had, at some unknown point, returned to her usual appearance, her fox ears and tail hidden, and walked slowly to Mo Yan's side.

"Five hundred and twenty-seven enemy troops have all been annihilated, with none escaping."

Mo Yan nodded, his gaze sweeping over the chaotic battlefield ahead.

"Arrange immediate treatment for the injured Soldiers."

"The rest of you, clear the battlefield."

Bai Lingyue responded, "Yes, My Lord."

Mo Yan's gaze fell on the weapons and equipment scattered on the battlefield, most of which were crude, broken goods.

He looked not far away, where Gun Gun was holding a broken spearhead, crunching on it with relish.

This little fellow had put in a lot of effort in the fight today, and it was time to reward it well.

Mo Yan added, "As for the equipment, repair and keep what's usable, and directly give what's unusable to Gun Gun as a snack."

Then, he shifted his attention back to the massive resources in his Talent Space.

He carefully checked the specific figures of this gain.

Food: 25407

wood: 53890

Stone: 51263

iron ore: 6754

Gold Coins: 18349

Primal Stones: 1543

These were contributed by the six generous Lords, not including his existing resources.

Both wood and stone exceeded fifty thousand!

Just as he finished counting this astonishing loot, a new System prompt suddenly rang out in his mind.

[Tip: Detected that the Lord Talent "Resource Collector" has met the material hoarding standard!]

[Tip: wood hoarding quantity has reached 50,000 units, activating Hoarding Bonus (wood) Lv1!]

[Tip: Stone hoarding quantity has reached 50,000 units, activating Hoarding Bonus (Stone) Lv1!]

[Hoarding Bonus (wood) Lv1: All wood consumption within the territory is reduced by 5%, and territory wood collection efficiency is increased by 5%]

[Hoarding Bonus (Stone) Lv1: All stone consumption within the territory is reduced by 5%, and territory stone collection efficiency is increased by 5%]

Hoarding Bonus?!

Mo Yan's pupils contracted, and his lips involuntarily spread into a grin.

His SSS-Rank Talent, Resource Collector, aside from its basic functions, had a "Hoarding Bonus" effect that had always been greyed out.

This effect, which required self-exploration, had now automatically activated due to the surge in resources!

And it was two at once.

Both wood and stone met the standard simultaneously!

A 5% reduction in construction consumption meant that in the future, upgrading buildings would require less wood and stone.

Accumulating small amounts would save a massive amount of resources.

Especially as the territory expanded and building Ranks increased, this effect would become increasingly terrifying.

Although the 5% increase in collection efficiency wasn't immediately useful to him, it would be once he found resource points!

The Hoarding Bonus was currently Lv1; as he hoarded more and more resources, this bonus Rank would increase, and its effect would become stronger.

It complemented automatic production.

As long as he had enough resources, his development speed would become faster and faster, forming a virtuous cycle!

"I'll have to rob more often in the future," Mo Yan's lips curved, revealing a mischievous smile.

Why painstakingly collect resources when it was so much more satisfying to just be a bandit?

Of course, the prerequisite was sufficient strength.

He composed himself, calming his excited mood.

His gaze turned to the Talent Space.

In addition to the massive basic resources, there were also the six ordinary random Blueprints emitting green light.

Full of anticipation, he took out the first Blueprint.
