Chapter 9

Liu Siyi could no longer waste time. He looked at the sun, which should be around eight or nine in the morning, and released three reconnaissance spells.

This time, the map's range became extremely large, and many more things appeared in his mind.

Originally, the range of the X-ray Vision was ten kilometers, the range of the Spatial Reconnaissance was one hundred kilometers, and the range of the Mining Spell was also one hundred kilometers. Now, the Advanced Reconnaissance Spell tripled the range, making it four times the original range. Therefore, the range of the X-ray Vision reached forty kilometers, and the range of the Spatial Reconnaissance and the Mining Spell reached four hundred kilometers.

Of course, what Liu Siyi was most concerned about was the group of dwarves. At this point, the ogre figures within the range had disappeared, and in their place, the dwarf army appeared.

Most people nowadays had one characteristic: they only cared about their own affairs. They fought their battles, and it had nothing to do with him.

At least Liu Siyi thought that the dwarves going to develop the north would leave him time to develop the south, which was also a good thing.

Since he decided to develop the south and the map's range had tripled, he naturally had to look carefully to decide his direction of movement.

The south was indeed an undeveloped wilderness, with many wild monsters. There was almost a group of wild monsters every few kilometers, ranging from a few kilometers to several dozen kilometers apart.

What is this? Liu Siyi suddenly saw a square building made entirely of stone at the edge of the visible range in the south, feeling a sense of joy in his heart.

This was the first wild building he had discovered. Although it looked a bit like a building in a game, he couldn't be sure without seeing it with his own eyes. Especially the wild monsters guarding the building, which were actually a group of Diamond Men.

Diamond Men, a fifth-tier unit, have a magic resistance as high as 95%. Among fifth-tier units, Diamond Men are one of the most powerful, with high health and strong defense, especially their extremely high magic resistance. They can withstand the Blade of Doom, and pure mage units generally have to detour when they encounter them. The only drawback, perhaps, is their speed, which is very slow.

However, no matter how many flaws the Diamond Men had, Liu Siyi could not defeat them with his current strength. He would have to wait until his strength improved.

Liu Siyi roughly surveyed the south he was about to develop and naturally turned his gaze to the north. No matter what, the actions of the dwarf army still needed to be monitored, at least to roughly determine their purpose based on the wild monsters in the north.

As soon as his gaze turned to the north, he suddenly saw a very distinctive building further north in the direction of the ogres, standing on a towering mountain.

The location was at the far end of the northern range Liu Siyi could reconnoiter, roughly about 150 kilometers away from him.

The shape of the building was very unique and distinctive, built on the top of a large mountain, resembling a newly hatched chick.

Indeed, it was the building of the fifth-tier unit, the Thunderbird, of the orc forces: the Wall Nest. Although it was only a low-level Wall Nest, Liu Siyi recognized it at first glance.

The most important point was that the Wall Nest was not occupied by any force.

The low-level Thunderbird, unlike the high-level Thunderbird, could not summon lightning to cast spells like Thunderbolt, but it was still a very powerful flying unit. Fast, with excellent attack and defense, and strong vitality, it could also release electric currents to paralyze opponents in close combat, making it highly cost-effective.

Further north of the ogres, there must be an orc city or fortress.

Based on what he saw and the experience gained from the memory inheritance, Liu Siyi immediately made this judgment. Looking further north, he could only see a sector. After the Wall Nest, there were only mountains and some wild monsters, nothing else worth noting. This time, he was very careful and thorough, but he did not see any other orc buildings on the map.

However, when he looked to the west, he discovered another building at the edge of the western reconnaissance range, about 200 kilometers away.

This building was constructed next to a forest. If it weren't for the freshly cut trees inside the wooden fence, Liu Siyi would never have recognized it as a lumber mill.

At this moment, he could vaguely see the dwarf lumberjacks cutting wood inside.

It was like a pillow being delivered when one was sleepy. He was just worried about not having any city development, and now he had discovered two, which made him very excited.

As for the east, the reconnaissance range still showed a dense forest, indicating how vast this primeval forest was. The vegetation was so lush that even the reconnaissance spell couldn't penetrate it, and he had no idea what was inside. But without saying, even if there was an elf castle in the primeval forest, Liu Siyi would not rashly enter it with his current strength, as the various poisonous insects were beyond his ability to handle.

The current issue was that the dwarf city had already developed, at least to the point of having fifth-tier units. The situation of the orc city was unknown, but it was likely not as well-developed as the dwarf city. From the inheritance, he knew that the buildings of each race would only appear within the territory of that race. Of course, there were some outside the territory, but the possibility was negligible. This meant that the Wall Nest was within the territory of the orc forces but was not occupied by them.

Perhaps the orc city had developed, but its development was worse than that of the dwarf city. This gave Liu Siyi an idea. The orc race was much stronger than the dwarf race, at least in terms of the diversity of units.

With this idea, Liu Siyi immediately made a decision to advance north, collecting resources along the way, which would help him become a hero. Otherwise, even if he captured the Wall Nest, he couldn't recruit Thunderbirds.

There was also the dwarf army. Although dwarves are particularly effective against mages, if possible, it would be best to eliminate this dwarf army. Otherwise, if the dwarves discovered the orc city behind them, there would be trouble.

The dwarves' original mobility was not high, and it was even slower in this mountainous terrain. However, if they captured the Wall Nest and recruited Thunderbirds, the dwarves' mobility would increase by more than one level. At that time, not only the north but even the south would be under the threat of the dwarves.

Therefore, the dwarves must not be allowed to occupy the Wall Nest, or the consequences would be unimaginable.

Moreover, if he could recruit Thunderbirds, his mobility would reach an incredible level. Although the speed and endurance might not be as strong as an airplane, his small-range mobility and combat power would increase significantly.

However, thinking about how to eliminate the dwarf army, Liu Siyi felt a headache. With his current abilities, it was impossible, but if he didn't do this, wouldn't he have to leave this undeveloped wilderness?
