Chapter 1147 - 613: Getting Rich from Unclaimed Territory, End of Heat Wave Challenge

Gujate, who is quite single-minded and has the talent of a model worker, didn’t return to the territory until nine in the morning.

According to Luna, the Flying Tiger was so exhausted it was foaming at the mouth.

The Hunger Level dropped to a miserable 15 points.

You can imagine how Gujate must have pushed it.

The exact number of Flame Demon Keys obtained still needs to be counted.

Because not only did Gujate carry a package, the storage grids of the personal armor were also stuffed with keys.

Even the Flying Tiger’s mouth was holding a few hundred keys.

These are all things Zong Shen has to worry about.

When Zong Shen returned to the territory with Reese Ulysses.

The entire territory was in a bustling state.

Even outside the Lord’s Fortress, he could faintly hear the voices coming from two or three kilometers away.

In the entire Lord’s Fortress, aside from Salome Lin Yu who was tending the sweet potato fields and some farm women, there wasn’t a single person; neither Marie nor Luna, nor Wenresa were in the fortress.

Even the Blood Wolf Gujate, upon returning to the territory, hadn’t had time to rest before being drafted by Luna to help them organize the incoming warriors.

Bringing back so many resources and population overnight indeed required these heroic-level talents to be busy for a while.

"Whew..."

"The territory has never been this lively."

Zong Shen shook his head, softly expressing his sentiment.

He woke Reese Ulysses and had her flash back to the room to rest.

Then he jumped off Xiaohei’s back.

He was about to enter the fortress, and take a short hour of rest in his room.

When Xiaohei behind him started protesting.

"I’m hungry..."

"Do you have any sour carp?"

"..."

Zong Shen turned around, looking at it speechlessly.

After tilting his head in thought, he pointed towards the south.

"Fly back to the Poison Swamp and have a meal yourself."

"I have big catfish here."

"I hope to see you obediently staying in the yard when I wake up in an hour."

This kind of strong-flavored delicacy can only be found in the Poison Swamp.

The Poisonous Mist Swamp has food reserves, so let the Little Black Dragon handle it itself.

To prevent it from causing a commotion by running around, Zong Shen restricted it to return within an hour.

"Hmph!"

With a light snort, the Little Black Dragon spread its black wings and flew southward.

Zong Shen watched the Little Black Dragon fly away, smiled, and directly returned to his room.

The Vitality Spring can restore some physical strength, but it cannot completely replace sleep.

Sleep is the most effective way of recovery, even an hour can significantly improve his condition.

Zong Shen took off his battle armor and lay down on the bed with ease, quickly falling into dreams.

...

In the territory’s Agricultural and Livestock Area, Marie and Hoy looked at the towering piles of resources in mutual bewilderment.

Behind them were the deputies responsible for internal affairs.

Everyone’s eyes were bloodshot.

It was proof enough that they hadn’t rested all night.

Yet, Marie still had a faintly excited expression on her face.

Even Hoy was full of energy.

"With so many resources, the territory’s construction won’t be a problem!"

"Perhaps it’s time to start preparing for the central area wall construction plan."

Marie said with shining eyes.

Hoy nodded in agreement.

"The territory is about to embark on a path of rapid development."

"At this pace, the territory’s scale will soon surpass Gothic Castle."

"I will also share in the commercial and statistical responsibilities for our lord."

Hoy said with a touch of emotion.

His talent lies in commercial planning and material coordination.

He is very sensitive to statistics.

Currently, he manages the territory’s material statistics.

As for Marie, she is more like a building enthusiast, obsessed with construction and population logistics.

The two of them, plus the heroic talents gained later, have gotten the entire territory’s logistics and internal affairs functioning.

"Let’s continue with the sorting."

"There are already plenty of grass huts built on the vacant land from the Agricultural and Livestock Area to the Industrial Area."

"All resources can be temporarily stored in the grass huts."

"Once the new infrastructure projects start, these resources will be consumed first."

"Also, the precise statistics of resources and materials must be delivered to our lord for review as soon as possible."

Marie said decisively and efficiently.

She already possessed a maturity beyond her years.

"Shall we apply for some Wolf Cavalry from Lord Korby to help?"

Hoy looked at the heaps of materials stretching into small hills, turning to ask.

Marie nodded.

"Of course we need..."

"We also have to use those idle Burden-Bearer Mechas and our respective storage grids."

Hoy immediately understood, took out a Communication Crystal to get in touch.

Marie raised her hand and gave a wave.

Behind her, San Pang led three or four hundred farmers rushing in, starting to transport resources.

...

At the same time, in the open space on the outskirts of the Living Area.

Thousands of people were divided into three groups, each with a different number.

They held food in their hands, looking around the territory with confusion.

The materials were managed by Marie and Hoy.

But as for the population, Luna, Wenresa, Korby, Doris, and Favide had to take charge.

Compared to organizing materials, managing the population was even more troublesome.

Doris, who was always short on patience, was at her wit’s end.

Up to now, they had barely completed a round of rough categorization.

Detailed talent statistics, troop classifications, and heroic talent categorization still hadn’t been completed.

Most of the population remained in an unclaimed neutral state.

This was because those heroic talents from the unclaimed territories hadn’t finished their planning yet.
