Three days later.
Li Yi was very satisfied when he saw the territory report submitted by his subordinate.
Right now, the territory's development speed was like a rocket.
The dwarves had already analyzed the design of the airship and made some improvements. They were just waiting for the materials to be sufficient to build it.
Not too long ago, Helena had brought her team back from the Sandstorm Plains and destroyed more than ten cities in the territory. They had occupied five large gold mines, seven medium gold mines, and fifteen small gold mines. They had collected a total of 450,000 gold coins, as well as various construction materials. They had also brought in 30,000 experience points for Li Yi. It could be said that they had gained quite a lot.
If it wasn't for the fact that these territories were only small, they would have been exploited by the previous "four big territories", and their income would have increased by several times.
Currently, Li Yi had 45900 EXP. He had a total of 18 large-scale gold mines, 22 medium-scale gold mines, and 37 small-scale gold mines.
His daily production of gold coins had reached 135000!
Including the reserves he had made over the past three days and the gold coins he had plundered, he had a total of 855000 gold coins in his inventory!
An astonishing number!
In just over a month's time, with the identity of a new lord, he had developed to such a grand occasion. Ordinary people would not even dare to think about it!
Based on Li Yi's current development speed, it was enough for him to advance deeper into the continent!
However, Li Yi wasn't in a hurry. Right now, he was paying attention to the monster territory far overseas.
Before that, he still had to make the final preparations-recruiting the Dark Dragonians.
The recruitment fee for a rank 11 Dark Dragon was 10,000 gold coins, which was a high price that ordinary Lords could not afford.
However, Li Yi did not even blink as he used all 850,000 gold coins in his inventory to recruit the Dark Dragonians.
Now, Li Yi had a total of 135 Dark Black Dragonmen under him.
From a normal point of view, a mere 135 of them could only be called a team, let alone an army.
However, when facing soldiers below Rank-10, it was enough to fight against thousands of troops!
"Pass down the order. 35 Dark Black Dragonmen will guard the territory, and the remaining 100 will board the airship with me and prepare to set off.”Li Yi said. The reason why they left 35 Dark Dragon people was to prevent anyone from stealing when the main force was not around. This kind of thing was very common in this world. Although this was the edge of the continent, it was hard to guarantee that there would be accidents that the vines would not be able to resist during this trip. It was better to be careful.
"Yes, sir!" Helena immediately complied.
…After
a long time.
Everything in the city had been arranged properly. Without any external factors, Li Yi was not worried about any changes in the city with the help of the Imagination Devil Vine.
Outside the city, on the airship.
The 100 Dark Drakonids were ready to go, and with Helena's command, ear-piercing sounds of engines could be heard. With the help of magic crystals, the airship slowly rose into the air.
The wind whistled in his ears. Li Yi stood at the edge of the cruiser and looked at the blue sky. He felt the breeze blowing on his face and squinted slightly, enjoying it.
"Master, this journey is very long. It will take at least three days to arrive.”Helena said respectfully.
"It's fine." Li Yi said.
In truth, he could have arrived faster with the help of the Dark Black Dragonmen, but the process would clearly not be as comfortable.
However, Li Yi felt that he had nothing to do. Taking advantage of the novelty of his first airship ride, he treated this long journey as a vacation.
Only by enjoying life appropriately could one be worthy of life.
"Helena, can you teach me martial arts or magic?”Li Yi suddenly said.
"Ah?" Helena was taken aback."Master, do you want to learn martial arts or magic?”
"Yes." Li Yi nodded.
Although he had used Helena's "special method" to raise his physical body to the level of a tier 8 soldier and gain control over dark magic, in reality, his true strength was probably inferior to a stronger tier 6 soldier leader.
This was because he knew nothing about magic and martial arts. If they really fought, he would probably be like a street gangster. He would not be able to unleash his full potential.
Li Yi wasn't someone with a fragile heart. He was thick-skinned and naturally asked if he didn't know anything.
He had always firmly believed in the principle of "gathering the strengths of hundreds of schools to form a single family" and "having more skills does not burden one's body".
Although it was impossible for a person to be perfect, in Li Yi's opinion, he should at least be good at everything.
He was not skilled in both martial arts and martial arts, but he was at least good at saving his life.
After all, in this world, there were too many lords who had powerful territories but died.
Even those who had powerful personal guards or died unnaturally were everywhere.
Thus, although the development of the territory was important, one's own strength couldn't be ignored.
If he didn't even have the strength to protect his own life, how could he fight for the ownership of this mainland?
"Master, are you serious? You don't need to spend energy on this, and you don't need to suffer. Helena swore that as long as she was alive, she would never let her master be in any danger!”Helena's voice was filled with unwavering conviction.
"Helena, did you know? The future was hard to predict. Even if you swear here, who can guarantee that there won't be an accident that neither you nor I can stop? Being in a high position, the most taboo thing was to sit and wait for death. No matter what he did, he had to be prepared for both scenarios. Only then could he save his life at a critical moment.”Li Yi laughed.
"Helena will never let that happen!!”
Li Yi shook his head and flicked Helena's fair forehead with his index finger.""Silly girl, let's put it simply. Only by making myself stronger can I feel more secure. In addition, if one day, a Lord comes to me to show off and say that he wants to fight me one-on-one, I can take this opportunity to beat him up.”
Helena fell silent upon hearing his half-joking words.
"Master, are you sure you want to learn martial arts and magic? This will be very difficult." Helena was still a little hesitant.
"Only by enduring hardship can one become a superior person. If I can't even endure this bit of hardship, how can I talk about dominating this continent?”Li Yi laughed.
"Master
…" Do you have any other questions?"
"You're so manly."
