He was going to the end of the third floor of the black tower, where there must be a stone platform and a stone gate and an iron door leading to the fourth floor.
"Lord, what are you doing inside? It's not safe outside the village..."
Wang Yijia's instinctive timidity showed up again, but Zhou Zhenghao smiled coldly at him,
"What's the danger? Are you talking about those demonic insects you just killed? You have to remember that from now on you follow me and you are my believer. You can't embarrass me. If you see any monsters in the future, just give it to me.
To kill, you must use the courage and strength I gave you to clear away any enemies on my way forward..."
"Okay, I understand,..."
Wang Yijia was completely stunned by Zhou Zhenghao's deception. He actually puffed up his withered chest and waved his hand.
"Escort the lord to the front..."
What he shouted was really important. These beggar-like villagers dared to line up in two lines with their bare hands, leaving a passage in the middle for Zhou Zhenghao to go forward.
Zhou Zhenghao shook his head, forget it, let's go.
The terrain outside the village was not complicated at all. It was all barren land. Zhou Zhenghao also saw their two pieces of farmland, a barren one with no green at all.
We were heading towards you, and the journey was going smoothly. Then two demonic insects appeared. Under the leadership of Wang Yijia, these villagers seemed to have been given a shot of blood. They surrounded a demonic insect and dared to kill it.
Zhou Zhenghao had a lot of machetes in his backpack, so he just gave them more than twenty.
These more than twenty machetes in the hands of the villagers are more than enough to deal with those demonic insects. This demonic insect has no attack power at all, and its reaction is slow. As long as it is not bitten by the big mouth on its head, it can go around at will.
Give him two knives behind him and treat him like a stream of water.
Originally, these villagers were afraid of these demonic insects because of the law. Now that Zhou Zhenghao has arrived, the law has been forced on them, and the seal of fear has been released.
After killing several demonic insects, these villagers became bolder.
Walking inside, soon, the militiamen in the distance also searched the edge of the mini map and began to gather towards Zhou Zhenghao.
Zhou Zhenghao walked inside and saw a stone platform, but this one was a bit big, which surprised him.
When he walked to the stone platform, Zhou Zhenghao was stunned. Is this definitely the stone platform?
This stone platform is much larger than the ingredients on the first and second floors of the Black Tower. This is not a problem. The problem is that there are three horizontal and three vertical grooves on this ingredient, a total of nine grooves.
When Zhou Zhenghao saw these nine grooves, his heart raced endlessly.
Isn't this obvious? I have exactly nine restoration stones in my pocket, and I need nine for this ingredient. Is this a peek into my backpack?
He had a piece left before, but later asked He Yingyi to collect seven yuan for him. Just now, village chief Wang Yijia contributed another piece to him, not nine yuan.
Zhou Zhenghao tremblingly put a piece of restoration stone into it. As expected, there was no reaction. He gritted his teeth and put all nine pieces in his backpack, and a prompt box flashed out.
[Are you sure you want to use the nine restoration stones to restore the villagers and demonic insects on the third floor of the black tower? 】
Looking at the prompt box, Zhou Zhenghao suddenly lost his composure. Instead of scolding the system, he hugged the system and kissed it twice. So that's it,
He used to think that these nine restoration stones could only restore monsters like demon insects, which were completely useless, but he didn't expect that this villager could also restore them.
What is this concept? This means that as long as he spends nine restoration stones, he can get 200 villagers again.
For Zhou Zhenghao, who has always longed for more people, this is simply a blessing from heaven.
Nine restoration stones,
value,
So worth it.
Even so, he didn't lose his mind and directly chose No.
Then he put the nine pieces back into his backpack when he was recovering them, but he can't use them now.
There are only more than a hundred people outside of him. Although the current village chief Wang Yijia is extremely devoted to his admirer, he still needs some time to consume it.
No matter what, we can wait until these 200 people are arranged smoothly before resuming the work.
There is a saying that says, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, you have to walk step by step.
My girlfriend also needs a step-by-step strategy. First touch the hands, then the elbows, and then go up the arms. This is the truth.
The restoration stone was recovered.
Zhou Zhenghao also saw the large iron door on the stone wall next to it, which led to the fourth floor of the black tower. He had now successfully obtained the key.
But he doesn't want to conquer the fourth floor now.
The third floor is the reward floor, and there is no way there will be rewards on the fourth floor. There must be powerful monsters in there.
He can't just focus on exploring the black tower now. His outside territory is the most important. As long as you don't open the door here, the monsters inside won't escape.
The territory outside is different. If the protection is not good and the stone walls are knocked down by those monsters, it will be doomed.
Therefore, the most important thing in Zhou Zhenghao's mind is the development of the outside territories. Now that he has a population, the most important thing for him to do now is to quickly return to the outside territories and develop vigorously.
Thinking of this, Zhou Zhenghao did not stop here and walked out with everyone. When he reached the village again,
Looking at the village leader Wang Yijia who was like a pug next to him, still following him out, he couldn't help but ask.
"Wang Yijia, don't you need to pack your things? Just follow me..."
"What to pack?..."
These words stunned the village chief Wang Yijia, and Zhou Zhenghao said
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
"Pack away some pots, pans, spoons, and bedding..."
"Well, without that kind of thing, our village would not exist. We only gnaw tree bark and huddle in the house every day. We don't need any pots and pans at all..."
What Wang Yijia said was righteous and reasonable.
"You are really poor, Dingdangxiang, and your family has only four walls..."
Zhou Zhenghao shook his head speechlessly. Through the broken wooden doors, he could see that there was nothing in the villagers' houses.
"Forget it, there's nothing more to say..."
This time there was a large number of people. Zhou Zhenghao's 30 militiamen had reported to him that the entire floor of demonic insects had been cleared and no other monsters were found.
Zhou Zhenghao also understood through the restoration stone that there were only villagers and demonic insects on this third level. This made him feel relieved.
Everyone walked through the big stone gate and entered the second floor of the Black Tower. The militiamen were nothing, but they made the villagers ecstatic. They looked around as if Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden.
I am interested in everything on the second floor of the Black Tower.
"Oh my God, Lord, why is there such a big lake here? This water is really good..."
Wang Yijia looked at the rippling blue waves of Half-Moon Lake in front of him with an intoxicated expression. Zhou Zhenghao looked at the thick mud on their bodies and curled his lips.
Their village is indeed short of water. It looks like you haven't taken a bath since you were born. And Zhou Zhenghao didn't even find a well in their village. I really don't know how these people survived.
"Wang Yijia, you lead your villagers to divide them up and go to the lake to take a bath. I will have someone bring you new clothes in a while. Take off all your old clothes and pile them by the lake for a while. Order them.
The fire is all gone..."
"Ah, don't you want it anymore? My clothes are still fine..."
Wang Yijia shook his shabby coat with large patches and holes exposed, with a look of reluctance on his face.
"Follow my orders and give you better clothes..."
Zhou Zhenghao's face turned cold at this time, and Wang Yijia really didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore and immediately nodded and bowed.
"Yes, yes..., Lord, don't worry, I will arrange for them to take a bath right away..."
There is nothing planned. This lake is very big. This side is a rocky hill, which is the territory of those steel-jawed beasts. It is occupied by all the male villagers. The female villagers, led by several older women,
Go around Half Moon Lake and take a bath in the woods on the opposite side.
Seeing that Wang Yijia's arrangements were quite orderly, Zhou Zhenghao turned around and asked Shuangjiang Hou.
"How about it? Can you make clothes for more than 200 people..."
"Let's make sportswear first. It's a bit difficult to make chemical protective clothing..."
Shuangqianghou is now in charge of the processing table and has directly started producing sportswear.
In addition, Zhou Zhenghao sent someone to contact You Rong, Wang Shi, Ren Dong and others outside.
Tell them the news and prepare them to pick you up.
Soon, all the villagers were washed clean. When this villager went down, Zhou Zhenghao saw that the water around him turned black. After these villagers finished washing, the entire Half Moon Lake water became much deeper.
Fortunately, there is no refresh now, and there are no water monsters in this lake. Otherwise, it would be strange if the water monsters didn't come out because of your making such noise, and they would come out and fight you desperately.
When they were almost finished washing, Shuangqianghou's sportswear was also made. He took it out of his backpack and handed it to Wang Yijia.
Wang Yijia led several villagers to take back the clothes, and then called the women across the street to come over and get the clothes. They were busy for a while until everyone had washed their faces and put on clean sportswear.
When standing in front of Zhou Zhenghao,
Zhou Shenghao felt that these people looked a bit human. Although they were still skinny, at least their faces were clean and there was no smell on their bodies.
"Okay, everyone has worked hard..."
He didn't know why it was so hard to take a bath, but Zhou Zhenghao still said so, and then distributed bread and water to these people again. After this long time of tossing, these people's stomachs were empty again.
After these guys finished eating, Zhou Zhenghao led them out of the second floor of the black tower.
After passing the first floor of the Black Tower, he led them directly to the territory.
In the territory, Ren Dong, Wang Shi and You Rong had been waiting here for a long time. They all looked eagerly at the gate on the first floor of the black tower. When they saw Zhou Zhenghao finally coming out, these three people immediately surrounded them.
"Does the lord really have 200 people?..."
"Yes,..."
Zhou Zhenghao smiled and nodded. Ren Dong was the happiest among these people.
"Wait a while, Ren Dong, you pick first, and the remaining people will be given to Wang Shi, and Wang Shi will pick the remaining people for You Rong, that's it..."
Zhou Zhenghao's arrangement was very simple. By the time they were talking, a large group of people were already snoring from the first floor of the black tower.
This group of people were slightly stunned after they walked out, because the sky outside was still a little dark, so it was already morning and there was a hint of white in the east, but it was not fully bright yet.
These villagers on the third floor of the Black Tower had obviously never seen the night, so they looked at the sky in a daze.
"What are you looking at? It's night, don't you know? Work during the day and sleep at night. This is God's will..."
Zhou Zhenghao could only pull the tiger's skin again. The villagers were stunned one after another.
Seeing these 200 people cheering and filling up their own territory, they also occupied the empty space on the fence in front of the black tower. Zhou Shenghao nuzzled at Ren Dong,
"You can choose as many of these people as you want. It would be great if they all joined your militia...
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
"
That is impossible, although Zhou Zhenghao said so, but among these villagers there are not only some women, but also some children.
Ren Dong looked at this, and the people in front of him were a little stupid and numb.
Difficult to do.
This!...Are you going to be a militia? None of them have any flesh on their bodies. Even the most ordinary sportswear is dangling from their bodies. This can really kill monsters.
He turned his questioning eyes to Zhou Zhenghao, but Zhou Zhenghao spread his hands and looked indifferent.
There is nothing I can do.
In this case, Ren Dong took two steps forward and coughed loudly twice, attracting the attention of the whispering villagers to himself.
"Hello everyone, I am the captain of the militia team in this territory. First of all, I would like to introduce to you that our militia team is to protect the safety of the entire territory..."
"See, not only do we have to stand guard on these stone walls, but we also organize everyone to go out to kill monsters when nothing happens. This is the responsibility of our militia. In order to protect our own homeland, who of you is willing to join our militia?
Team raises your hand..."
After saying this, the villagers looked at him blankly, no one spoke, and no one raised their hands.
"Didn't I tell you before?..."
At this time, it seemed that there was no other way, so Zhou Zhenghao came forward again.
"You came to my territory, did you see? They are actually the same as you. They all need to fight, defend their homes, and work. The young and strong of you must join the militia and go out to kill monsters. You
Don’t worry, don’t be afraid,…”
"I have given you boundless courage and the power to kill demonic insects. I have also given you ability display frames. You can enhance your various attributes by hunting prey, and you can become stronger and more agile.
Smarter..."
"So don't give up on such conditions. This is an opportunity for you. You can become stronger and become as strong as those militiamen..."
After saying this, Zhou Zhenghao pointed at the 30 militiamen who followed him in. These words finally made the villagers' eyes shine.
As strong as those militiamen, they have seen those militiamen before,
He was like a god killing those demonic insects, just like peeling melons and vegetables.
At the same time, Zhou Zhenghao glared at the village chief Wang Yijia. His meaning was very obvious.
"You are the village chief, you have to set an example..."
Wang Yijia was glared at by Zhou Zhenghao, and suddenly he thrust his withered chest forward and raised his hand fiercely.
"I join the militia. You bastards, you gnawed bark every day when you were in the village. Haven't you had enough? Do you still want to eat dirt? Now, Lord Doorkeeper, no, it was Lord Lord who gave us a glorious future...
"
"Given us the power, we should cherish killing the enemy for the lord. This is what we should do. If you are not short of arms and legs, join the militia for me..."
With the example set by the village chief Wang Yijia, many people behind him immediately raised their hands.
At this time, Ren Dong also had a very happy face and said quickly.
"Everyone who raises his hands, come over and stand on my right side. You will be my militia from now on..."
This time, under the leadership of village chief Wang Yijia, these villagers walked out of the crowd. About half of them, snoring, stood next to Ren Dong.
Ren Dong looked at the villagers, who numbered close to a hundred people, with joy on his face.
"Oh, I have greatly increased my subordinates this time. But the image of these people is a bit miserable..."
"It doesn't matter. People like Ren Dong can also be upgraded. Besides, you don't have to worry about losing weight after a few meals. They will definitely grow meat. In addition, you need to focus on training them and let the militiamen take them to level up.
Come up, this is all the power in our territory..."
Zhou Zhenghao whispered to Ren Dong next to him, and Ren Dong nodded repeatedly.
"Lord, you don't have to worry about this, I know how to do it..."
"Is this the last chance..."
Seeing that there were still many people in Zhouzhou, Ren Dong did not give up and shouted to the remaining people. After waiting for a while, several more people came over with their hands raised.
Ren Dong saw that it was almost done and immediately said to Zhou Zhenghao,
"Lord, I think these are the only ones left. Let Wang Shi pick the rest..."
Wang Shi's current subordinates are a bit pitiful, with less than 20 people left, most of whom were selected into the militia by Ren Dong. After hearing what Ren Dong said, Zhou Zhenghao nodded,
Wang Shi next to him walked over somewhat dullly,
"I won't tell you, Lord, help me find it..."
Seeing his dull look, Zhou Zhenghao had no choice but to take a step forward.
"All the strong men among you, please walk to the left hand side. Don't be lazy and eat soft food. As long as you can swing an ax, walk to the left hand side..."
Zhou Zhenghao's words caused some men and strong women among the remaining villagers to come to his left. Zhou Zhenghao looked at it,
The remaining people are indeed a bit miserable. They are either old, weak, women and children, some are injured, and there are even some who don't listen to coughs, and I don't know what the disease is.
"Okay, it's almost done. You can take the remaining people, You Rong, with you..."
You Rong looked at the remaining children and old people. The woman couldn't help but smile bitterly and said,
"Lord, if you give me these people, what can they do? Apart from eating for free. How could this be possible?..."
