"Yes, Master!" Harriman agreed immediately, but he couldn't hide the regret in his eyes.
After all, for the dwarves who loved to study construction, dismantling things was often more interesting than building things.
Li Yi ignored the disappointment in Harriman's eyes. He waved his hand and told him to get busy.
Then, Li Yi received a piece of good news and a piece of bad news.
The good news was that there were a lot of magic crystals on the airship. If calculated in normal units, it would be 50 kilograms.
The bad news was that magicite crystals were a necessary energy source for driving airships.
In other words, even if Li Yi wanted to build a flying ship army in the future, he would need a large amount of magic crystals.
Otherwise, it would be equivalent to creating a pile of scrap metal.
Fortunately, 50KG of magic crystals were enough for the airship to travel for a long time. If there was a need, the airship could still be used.
"Master!"
Helena alighted from the airship and rushed over to Li Yi with excitement on her face. She held a sheepskin scroll in her hand and said,""Look at what I found."
Li Yi took the sheepskin scroll and looked at it. It was actually a hand-drawn map with a location marked on it.
The question was, what did the marked location represent?
Military stronghold?
"There are still alive soldiers on the airship who are responsible for operating the airship. After interrogation, we found out that this map is marked with a monster territory!”Helena explained.
Upon hearing the term " Monster Territory ", relevant memories immediately appeared in Li Yi's mind.
The so-called monster territory was actually a territory established by soldiers from the Otherworld who had broken through the recruitment point on their own.
For example, a month ago, Li Yi discovered the Stronghold Teleportation Gate that could not be recruited.
However, the soldiers that came out of the portal were all very weak. Moreover, Li Yi had sent his soldiers to guard the portal. Any one that came out would be treated as EXP.
Generally speaking, it was not rare for soldiers to break through the recruitment point on their own in this world, but it was very rare for them to be able to establish a territory called monster territory!
The first requirement was to be strong enough!
Moreover, there had to be a leader level existence as a lord!
Of course, the monster territories were also divided into three, six, and nine grades.
Some low-level soldiers broke through the recruitment point and came to this world. Although their combat strength was low, they could develop well by relying on their prosperity and experience in the other world or their racial talent. They were even much stronger than the human lords in this world. They could also learn to actively recruit soldiers and officially settle down in this world.
As for some high-level troops, although they were powerful, they were not prosperous in the Otherworld to begin with, or for various personal reasons, they often drew a "circle" and formed their own territory. They did not even go anywhere. It was equivalent to the wild monsters in the game world developing blindly, and in the end, they could not escape being wiped out.
There was one point, and it was also the most important point, that caused the monster territory to be regarded as a fragrant bun by the local lords of this world.
That was-there was a high chance that there were treasures in the monster territory!
As for what kind of treasure it was, that would depend on luck.
It could be a strategic treasure that Li Yi had obtained previously, or it could be a treasure that could increase the Lord's own strength.
In short, when the troops from the Otherworld came to this world to develop into a monster territory, the leaders with some strength would bring treasures from the Otherworld that did not belong to this world.
When the treasure was brought to this world, it would be affected by the laws, and its effects would change subtly. Naturally, it would become a treasure that would attract the drool of the lords.
As for the portal that Li Yi had discovered a month ago…
There was basically no possibility of treasures appearing.
Every time they farmed monsters, they were just skeleton soldiers with no intelligence. There was not even a leader level monster, let alone treasures.
"Master, I've just interrogated them. This map that marks the territory of the monsters is their harvest from this trip. According to the description, this monster territory basically had no development. It was equivalent to a monster gathering place. The soldiers there did not seem to have intelligence. They were like puppets but not puppets. There were at least 500 of them. They would not take the initiative to attack, but they were at least at the level of tier 8 soldiers. That was why they marked the location and waited for the next invasion.”Helena explained.
"Did they find any treasures in this monster's territory?”
"They once sent two hundred stitched monsters to try to invade, but in the end, they all died. However, they came to a conclusion that these soldiers seemed to be protecting something.”Helena paused for a moment before saying in a firm tone,""Master, Helena's suggestion is that we have to conquer this monster territory!”
"Oh? Reason?"
" According to what Helena knows, those soldiers must have encountered some kind of catastrophe in their original world. They brought something that they had to protect with their lives to escape through the broken portal to this world. Something similar had happened in Helena's world, and there were records of it. Hence, Helena speculated that there was a high chance that there were treasures in this monster territory!”
After hearing this, Li Yi pinched his chin and pondered for a moment.
If Helena's guess was correct, then this monster territory was indeed a must-have.
However, there was no detailed data on the level of danger there. There might be deeper dangers hidden there. If they acted rashly, they might fail miserably.
He had to think about it carefully and make a detailed plan.
"Keep those people alive first. After a few days, when the preparations are done, pick an auspicious day and lead the troops to that monster territory. Before that, arrange for people to protect this airship. Remember not to destroy it.”Li Yi instructed.
"Yes, sir!"
"Oh right, there are still a dozen small territories over at the Sandstorm Plains. Tomorrow, you will lead 20 Dark Black Dragonmen into a small team. Don't collect gold coins one by one. Just kill their feudal lords and occupy their gold mines. Then, I will use the Imagination Magic Vines to destroy their army. Understand?”Li Yi said.
He had originally planned to move his territory to the Sandstorm Plains before taking over these small territories.
However, in order to be fully prepared to attack the monster territory, they had to kill a wave first and earn experience points at the same time.
"Helena understands! I won't let Master down!" Helena said firmly.
