CHAPTER 496: CHAPTER 417: HE’S STILL BUILDING THE ROAD!

"Bui... building bridges and roads? Construction team? What exactly are you trying to do?"

Lilith pointed at the large army on the light screen and asked, "Aren’t you preparing to annihilate the next force?"

"Of course not."

"Why not?"

Lette’s expression suddenly turned serious: "Because we’re not strong enough yet!

If we haven’t accumulated the strength to simultaneously go to war with the entire Nether Beach, attacking rashly!

I would feel very insecure!"

Lilith’s eyes widened: "For... for warring with all the forces of the Nether Beach?"

Lette had an as-a-matter-of-fact look: "Not just starting a war! We need to be able to win! And not a Pyrrhic victory, a great victory!

We must have such strength!

Only then can we start a war!

Before that, we should strive to develop and continuously build! Enhance our strength!"

Lilith rubbed her temples: "Wait, wait, just hold on for a second.

We don’t need to go to war with all the forces of the Nether Beach, do we?"

"It’s not about going to war with each one, it’s about starting the war simultaneously!"

Lilith grabbed her hair: "No no no, this isn’t the core issue! No, this is exactly the core issue!

We don’t need to! Start a simultaneous war with the forces of the Nether Beach!"

"You’re right, there is no such necessity."

Lette spoke meaningfully: "After all, I’m not a Demon.

I still follow the wonderful tradition of loving peace!

But, we must take precautions!

What if, maybe, possibly, by any chance,

all the forces of Nether Beach suddenly unite and prepare to wage war against us?"

"...You have such a convincing argument, I can’t even argue against it."

Lilith’s eyes lost their sparkle: "So, we must develop!"

Lette patted her shoulder reassuringly: "Yes! You’ve understood.

We must develop well indeed!

Build walls high, store grain widely, and take kingship slowly!

When we grow to an acceptable level, we can..."

Lilith’s eyes flickered with light: "Then, we can strike all those forces?"

"By that time, they’ll all come to pay homage to us."

"...You really do love peace!"

Lilith couldn’t help but give him a thumbs up: "Then what if someone doesn’t come to submit to you? Have you thought about that?"

"Of course I have."

Lette’s gentle smile flashed with a hint of killing intent, and his words made Lilith shudder.

"However, I think no force would be so unwise as not to want to resolve issues in a civilized manner.

If there are any.

Then we’ll assist them in being civilized."

Lilith took a deep breath: "You say you’re not a Demon?"

"Yeah."

"Haha, I don’t believe you."

Lette chuckled and overbearingly pulled Lilith into his embrace.

"Whether you believe it or not doesn’t matter; as long as I believe it. Dear Lilith, it’s getting late, let’s get some rest early today?"

"Bad guy, where is there any sun above Nether Beach? How could it not be early in the day?"

Although Lilith said so, her face was already blushing and she wrapped her hands around Lette’s neck, afraid he might run away.

Lette reached out, and suddenly a large Magic Mushroom grew out of the ground, lifting them like a large round bed.

Immediately, the surrounding thick Magic Mushrooms wildly grew, forming an enormous Magic Mushroom house.

"Lette, wait a moment!"

"Wait? No way!"

"Oh no, your construction team, aren’t you going to manage them?"

"Relax, relax, they’re completely automated!"

And just as Lette said, this construction team of twenty thousand was indeed fully automated.

Their destination was the White Bone Plain surrounding the Sulfur Mountain Range.

It was a vast plain with no advantageous terrain to rely on.

Though better off than the Sulfur Mountain Range area, it was indeed hard to defend and could not produce Favoured, considered a barren land no one desired.

But Lette had his eyes on this plain because from a strategic standpoint, it’s a region with access in all directions.

Including the Sulfur Mountain Range, this White Bone Plain borders with six forces.

Apart from the small force of the Sulfur Mountain Range, the remaining five are all large and super-large forces.

It is because of this that this region became a buffer zone for several forces.

Now, Lette was ready to incorporate it into his territory.

Once occupied, he could attack any force he wanted, and any targeted territory could be taken for farming, planting, and cultivating mushrooms!

As for the terrain being too flat, with no key points to hold?

Joking, if none exist, then create them!

The Golden Armored Corpse opened the way to the center of the White Bone Plain, followed by the main force—Iron Armor Corpse and Copper Armor Corpse—who already started paving the road.

They sourced materials locally, laying down roads from the exit of the Sulfur Mountain Range to the latest gathering spot.

Upon reaching the destination, the entire army split into countless small teams.

Each Golden Armored Corpse would lead one or two Silver Armored Corpses, commanding the Copper and Iron Armor Corpses to start digging the foundation on site.

Because they were originally Molten Lava Skulls, the Fierce Zombies possessed the ability to spew lava and control flames.

Moreover, since their bodies were constructed from Magic Mushrooms, they could, like the Elf Clan and Mushroom Beast Clan, foster various Magic Plants and Magic Mushrooms.

With soil, wood, stone, and minerals, they could even smelt by themselves!

This is the meticulously crafted, mad infrastructure development army by Lette!

In the center of the flat White Bone Plain, they forcibly established a magnificent city of war.

This city was practically born for war, with high and solid walls, pre-prepared Magic Mushroom pits, and a vast, jaw-dropping trap area outside the city.

And this long, wide highway extended from the Sulfur Mountain Range to this city of bones.

To know, those crazier Mushroom Beasts, have now made a fortune in the Sulfur Mountain Range.

The kind of old, ragged cannon cart beneath the big one’s backside wasn’t even worth a glance anymore.

Everyone now owned a heavy artillery rider; the favorite of speed demons and explosive enthusiasts. The big one had switched from crappy firearms to fancy artillery, with a mobile war fortress equipped with double gun barrels.

The absurd caliber and incredible horsepower transformed this steel beast into a bona fide killing machine.

On the highway, this double-barreled war fortress’s speed was on par with any heavy artillery rider.

If the White Bone Hero City encountered danger, they could reach the battleground within ten minutes! Cooperating with the Fierce Zombies inside and out, capturing any invading enemies in one strike!

And after finishing the Heroic City’s construction, the construction team didn’t stop. They divided into five brigades and continued building roads towards the other five forces, even constructing small war fortresses along the way.

The White Bone Plain had entered a bustling era of grand construction.

The five major forces were taken aback, secretly formed a small alliance, planning to find ways to counter the expansion of the Sulfur Mountain Range.

They never expected a small faction to become a thorn in everyone’s side!

At their first meeting, the five leaders reached an initial consensus!

He must not be allowed to develop any further! The alliance must take proactive actions!
