However they were filled with various common herbs. The same with the next hundred backpacks.
Samuel continued to open some, and soon he realised why the warehouse wasn't so treasured. It was just filled with construction materials, there were countless woods, metals and irons.
However their purity was low, and they weren't of high quality. Such resources could be purchased with credits on Blue Star.
But such a huge amount of the resources are definitely beneficial. After all not everything can be built with high quality resources, these weak resources are often used for making armour and structures.
Out of the thousand backpacks, almost half were filled with building materials, and the rest were filled with herbs and some basic equipment.
Samuel estimated the value to be around 5,000 Spiritual Crystals. Not too bad for a quick attack.
But the real treasure would definitely be in the two huge vaults that were looted.
Samuel checked it with his soul body, unlike the convoy there was no protection soul here. But it was definitely huge.
Samuel estimated it was the same size as a small village! However it was filled with mostly useless crap.
But soon there were some valuables. There were stacks of golden coins, a relatively common currency among the planes.
More importantly there were a good amount of Spiritual Crystals. There were 5,000 Spiritual Crystals in each vault!
10,000 Spiritual Crystals! Not to mention the resources collected in these vaults add up to around 20,000!
But Samuel wouldn't sell them. He has quite a few construction projects going on in the occupied Planes.
A majority of the land on the Eltorn Paradise Plane and the Caterpillar Isles is unused. So A1 and Caterpillar Samuel made similar decisions; they began large residential and defensive constructions.
So this many construction materials is definitely helpful. Immediately Samuel ordered one vault to be shipped to each land, while he kept the ten thousand Spiritual Crystals.
These 10,000 Spiritual Crystals caused Samuel a bit of a headache. He didn't know what he wanted to do with it.
In the end, he summoned 5 Two Inch Spiritual Roots and 5,000 One Inch Spiritual Roots.
Of course the One Inch Spiritual Roots were sent for a formal training, while the Two Inch Spiritual Roots were sent to practice.
Samuel didn't want to lose talented Dogs of War that could raise generations of Rank 2 Warriors.
While the battle in the Lestan Plane continued, Caterpillar Samuel began his operation to take over a large Mythril Mine.
Inside the Caterpillar Isles, two thousand magnificent jade and marble statues stood in uniform ranks.
They marched onto a large ring and with a flash they reappeared in front of a giant stone mountain.
As soon as they appeared, an odd clacking sound echoed as Caterpillar Samuel saw hundreds of bulky mythril creatures. However their strength was quite low.
He only saw dozens of Middle Rank 1s and two or three High Rank 1 Ore Creatures.
But when the first Pawn Soldier swung down a jade sword, it actually bounces directly back causing shocking sparks to appear.
''Such a strong defence?'' Caterpillar Samuel was stunned. He knew the strength of his Pawns, but they can't even cut it?
However he quickly noticed something, after multiple hits, the ore creatures seemed to lack the energy to support the defence.
''Huh I was worried for nothing.'' He shook his head. He outnumbered them three to one. Although it takes multiple hits to defeat them, it is only a little extra time and losses.
Considering there were millions of frozen pawns inside of his body, he isn't concerned about a few losses.
When he fought against Nigel there were fights resulting in hundreds of thousands of deaths daily! How can this small battle compare?
The result of the battle is to be expected. By the end of it, Caterpillar Samuel had killed hundreds of Mythril Beasts. However they didn't condense Spiritual Crystals in the end.
But that didn't matter when he walked into the giant mines. They could easily fit the thousand statues shoulder to shoulder, and there was plenty of space left.
He did notice many pieces of mining equipment that lay scattered around the place. Clearly people have tried to mine her before but they couldn't deal with the constant creation of Ore Creatures.
But looking at the shining Mythril ores, he was amazed. Such a mine would definitely be worth a hundred thousand Spiritual Crystals before it was mined!
When he thought about the information dealer who sold the news, he couldn't help but be curious.
Unfortunately he wore a plague doctor mask, and Samuel was unable to tell who he was.
For the next six months, Caterpillar Samuel spent all the time buying manual mining equipment. This is one of the big things that stop people mining on the Eternal Battlefield.
Not only are they under constant threats of attacks, but they can't use technology to mine.
In the end Caterpillar Samuel had to invest his income in summoning more Dogs of War to mine for him. There are now 500 Low Rank 1 Dogs of War mining Mythril.
This isn't even a fraction of the space in the mine. But in just six months they brought out three hundred tons of mythril!
Each ton can sell for two Spiritual Crystals. But they didn't want to sell it yet.. Mythril is an incredibly strong material. Definitely stronger than Lemoncide and Ironite.
But it is difficult to produce armour. Samuels refiners aren't qualified to use the material yet so even if they are unwilling Caterpillar contacted a buyer on Blue Star who snapped it up quickly.
He got an insane 700 Spiritual Crystals for it! Mainly because the buyer was desperate, in preparation for the scourge everything was in high demand.
In the end all 700 crystals were used to summon more Dogs of War for miners. This directly doubled the production!
If others knew this they would be stunned. Ordinary organisations go through a lot of work to transfer mortal miners, or some slave warriors that mine resources.
This Mythril Mine became Samuels most profitable industry immediately! Already he is earning over a thousand Spiritual Crystals a year from it if he sells it!
Such a sudden increase in wealth amazed Samuel who was still overlooking the war in the Lestan Plane.
Not much has changed. Samuel didn't gain much land, but he defended his fortress. With the large amount of construction resources, they transformed it from a weak stone fortress to a strong metal and spiritual root fortress.
It was no longer so easy to climb up, there were brutal spikes pointing out at every level, but they were so thin that they were impossible to step on.
A large roof was constructed on each side of the wall, to defend the portal and the warriors from the Simpson Family.
