Chapter 23 Is there a lord nearby? sensitive fox tail

The people in the exchange area were ecstatically discussing their gains from the past two days. However, when Jiang Ming announced his plan to sell buff props, the entire communication area fell into stunned silence for a few seconds. Then, a flurry of comments and questions flooded the screen.

"[What did Jiang Ming do with buff props?]"

"[Wait, he's selling them? Aren't the stalls in the mall priced at 30,000 magic crystals? How does he have enough already? It's only the second day!]"

"[This is incredible!]"

"[Buff props? I've never seen them before. What are they?]"

"[And he said he's selling them in large quantities!]"

"[I think I get it. Jiang Ming must have obtained these buff props from the newly developed territories. I want to reserve thirty of them! I want to join in too!]"

"[Exactly! Jiang Ming is so powerful, it must be because of these buff props!]"

"[With buffs on all his soldiers, how can he not be fierce?]"

"[I'm buying! I've been hoarding magic crystals instead of upgrading. It's time to use them to buy buffs and strengthen my soldiers!]"

"[When compared to those lords who boasted about their greatness before, Jiang Ming is the real deal!]"

"[Jiang Ming is truly amazing!]"

It appeared that Jiang Ming's previous achievements announcements had played a significant role. People were more interested in learning about the buff props rather than questioning their existence. Jiang Ming's fame had provided him with a certain level of credibility, and everyone seemed eager to acquire these buff props to enhance their forces.

Meanwhile, with the formidable Moon Elf cavalry and archery corps at his disposal, the process of occupying new territories became highly efficient. In just one morning, Jiang Ming's forces conquered 15 new territories using up all the sprites of the three heroes. He no longer worried about the previous concerns and continued to slaughter monsters in the borderlands while leisurely browsing the communication area and forum in his castle.

However, one post from another lord caught Jiang Ming's attention. The lord complained about the sudden monster riots happening every afternoon in their territories. The monsters would come from the foggy area, wreak havoc, and then leave towards the west. It seemed that the monsters were moving in the direction where Jiang Ming had deployed his bait.

Realizing the connection, Jiang Ming decided to investigate further. He suspected that the lord encountering the monster riots daily was near his territory. Tomorrow, he plans to explore that direction and confirm his theory.

By the end of the third day, Jiang Ming's territory had expanded to 50 units. This allowed him to fully obtain the crucial source of crystal resources, providing him with a stable income of 50 units per day. With 36 source crystals obtained from the previous day and the remaining 6 from the first upgrade, he was only 10 source crystals away from upgrading the territory crystal to the next level. As for magic crystals, he had accumulated 19,000 units.

Jiang Ming decided to allocate 3,000 magic crystals to upgrade the castle, adding floors and more houses. Later that night, Bai Yue, Elsa, Shangguan Xueying, and others joined him. Bai Yue used her tail as a pillow, her cheeks blushing, while Elsa massaged Jiang Ming's shoulders. Shangguan Xueying continued practising sword swings, accumulating over 15,000 sword strikes. Even Elsa had to avoid her sharp blade, as she was close to advancing another rank.

Jiang Ming revelled in the blissful moments, remarking on how wonderful life was. However, his contentment was interrupted by a surprising announcement.

"[Ding!]"

"[Please

note that the fog in your territory has been expelled!]"
