Chapter 56

So far, we have only seen the basic buildings. Next, we will look at the unit buildings. These are the fundamental factors that determine whether a castle is strong or not.

The orc race has many types of units, unlike the dwarves, who are quite单一. It's also different from the game where only one type of unit can be built and recruited at each level. In this real world, on average, the orc race has two types of units at each level.

Don't say that if the dwarves have only one type of unit at the first level, and the orcs can recruit twice as many units in a week, would that be fair?

If someone really says that, I can only say you are crazy. This is not a game. In a world where the strong prey on the weak, only those with a crazy mind would talk about fairness.

Level 1: Goblins, Big Ears, Barbarians.

Level 2: Centaurs, Werewolves.

Level 3: Half-Orcs, Boars.

Level 4: Ogres, Orc Shamans.

Level 5: Thunderbirds, Minotaurs.

Level 6: Cyclopes, Wyverns.

Level 7: Beasts.

Each type of unit at each level has its unique unit building. Not only that, these buildings can be upgraded like in the game, but the recruited units will never be elite units. In this world, elite units and heroes, apart from occasionally being recruited, are mostly upgraded from ordinary units.

When checking the castle, you can naturally see the number of units that can be recruited. Unlike in the wild, where the number of units is fixed each week and does not carry over if not recruited, the number in the castle can carry over. For example, the number of Level 1 units currently stored, except for the goblins which still have over a hundred, the other units are all 0.

"What's going on? Why are the numbers of units that can be recruited all 0?" Liu Siyi released his hand from the city heart, his face dark, and turned to look at the old goblin who had already stood up and moved to the side, asking.

"This is because there was an enemy invasion, and I recruited them all." The old goblin calmly looked at Liu Siyi and answered, his tone very calm.

"Ha ha, it seems you haven't realized you are a captive yet."

No wonder there were so many units in this orc castle, and it took so long to kill them all. It turns out that so much time was wasted because this goblin had recruited all the previously stored units.

If there really was an enemy invasion, recruiting all the units would be understandable. But now, how much gold would it cost to recruit so many units? Why are there still over a hundred goblins not recruited? Is it because there's no more gold?

Not to mention, the goblin is now Liu Siyi's captive, and the goblin's gold is Liu Siyi's gold. Suddenly spending so much gold, who wouldn't be heartbroken? Especially when these units recruited with gold are resisting him.

Liu Siyi was very frustrated. The sudden increase in units was quite significant, which is why he had to summon Lexus and Phoenix again.

Rich people wouldn't mind the money, considering it as buying experience. But Liu Siyi had less than 5,000 gold in total, and just thinking about it made him extremely frustrated.

"I won't say much about you recruiting them all to resist me. After all, we are enemies, and this is what you should do." Liu Siyi calmed down, knowing that impulsiveness is the devil. Only by staying calm can one gain greater benefits. Therefore, he looked at the old goblin with a sinister expression and said in an exaggerated tone, "However, I think you must have many good things if you spent so much gold to recruit so many units."

Liu Siyi looked at the goblin, but this old goblin, apart from being slapped away at the beginning, did not show any panic. He only slightly lowered his head and closed his eyes slightly.

"Do you think I don't know what you're thinking just because I can't see your eyes?" Liu Siyi asked with a smile.

"Oh? What do you think I'm thinking?" The old goblin actually raised his head, his eyes bright, without any embarrassment.

Liu Siyi was quite surprised. So far, he had only encountered two goblins, but both had given him a significant shock, completely different from the cowardly and fearful goblins in novels.

"Does it matter what you're thinking? As long as I kill you, everything in your storage space will be mine. And most importantly, I will become the true master of this city." Liu Siyi didn't want to play the game of guessing moods with this goblin, who had been around for so many years and looked so old. He knew he would definitely lose, and at least he wouldn't gain any advantage.

"I want to know where you come from and what you plan to do in the future?" The old goblin suddenly changed the topic and asked.

"I am a wandering hero, and this city is my first city. I have a general understanding of the surrounding environment. As for what to do in the future, I will definitely become a stronger force within my capabilities." Liu Siyi understood the old goblin's sudden question. The purpose was simple: to convince the old goblin to truly submit. Otherwise, he couldn't see through his thoughts.

Hearing these words, the old goblin fell silent, showing a thoughtful expression. Liu Siyi didn't urge him. After all, the other party was a hero. If it really didn't work out, he would have to do what he initially planned.

"Can you tell me about the specific environment around here?" The old goblin's tone suddenly gave Liu Siyi a sense of desolation, but he was very excited.

"Sure, I was born here, so I am quite familiar with this area. This mountain range is about 5,000 kilometers long from east to west and about 2,000 kilometers wide from north to south. The orc castle is located in the northeast of the mountain range, about 500 kilometers from the eastern forest and about 100 kilometers from the northern desert. I haven't been to the eastern forest, but I have received information that it should be a very powerful elven empire, which has been fighting the dark elves and the undead for decades without a clear winner. The south is an undeveloped wilderness, and I don't know much about it. The west is a swamp. I wouldn't easily enter such a place, but I found a hydra at the edge. The north is a vast desert, and further north is the true desert, a place no one would want to enter. These are the surface forces. I also mentioned the underground forces. Apart from the dark elves and the undead, there are two powerful races: the dwarves and the hell devils. I found a passage to the underground world, which the dwarves also knew about, and I have collapsed it. I don't know if there are any other passages."

However, it must be said that the phrases "remain calm in the face of thunder" and "have a calm heart like a lake" are not just for the Chinese. At least this old goblin could do it.

"You mentioned that you want to quickly strengthen your power. How do you plan to do that?" The old goblin asked again.

"Of course, it's to develop first." Liu Siyi had already thought about it, so he answered quickly: "Because your strength is too weak, you have only built a Level 5 minotaur. The other four high-level unit buildings must be built as soon as possible. With these powerful units, the surrounding resources, treasures, and minerals must be secured to enhance the strength of the army, and then expand outward. As for the future competition with other forces, it's too early to talk about it now."

"Your strength is indeed strong, but as a force, you have too few hero-level subordinates." The old goblin shook his head and said.

"Ha ha, are you trying to tell me your importance?" Liu Siyi looked at him with a mocking smile, trying to lower his good self-image.

"Today is Saturday. Do you believe that I can train at least ten heroes before next week?"

"Impossible!" The old goblin opened his eyes wide and loudly contradicted. This time, his reaction was no longer calm, but after a burst, he quickly calmed down and said with a smile, "That's impossible. If you could do it, why would you talk so much to me?"

"Because your abilities are worth it." Liu Siyi looked into the old goblin's eyes to show his sincerity.

"Oh? Can you see my abilities?" The old goblin asked.

"Yes." Liu Siyi nodded.

"Good! If you can do it, I will submit to you!" The old goblin looked into Liu Siyi's eyes and said.

Occupying and developing this orc castle for so many years, showing sincerity, and having a reasonable strategy, if he could really train ten heroes in such a short time... No, even if he could train just one hero, it would already be very capable.

After all, the old goblin had only trained three heroes in so many years, and the outside world was still in chaos, and it was unknown how things were...

With strength, sincerity, and capability, such a person is worth submitting to.

The old goblin suddenly felt a sense of expectation. Perhaps this human could become a truly powerful existence.
