Necromancer chopping down trees

Chapter 129 Arrangements Before Departure
Before leaving, Wang Yue still had a lot of things to deal with in the castle.

This was also the first time for him to become a lord, and he did many things based on his feelings, so it was more reliable to leave most things to someone who had lived for more than a hundred years.

"Let me train the living dead? Aren't you doing a good job?"

Captain Peter sat in his new home, wearing a coat made of pigskin, all thanks to Wang Yue in front of him.

Wang Yue planned to visit the mainland, but she couldn't bring so many people with her for the first exploration, so she asked the experienced Peter to help with training.

"I have already set up the training ground. It can easily accommodate fifty people."

Wang Yue opened the window. The [First-level Training Ground] was on a high slope far away from the shelter. The main material was first-level spruce wood. It took Wang Yue almost a whole day to build it.

The training ground mainly provides wooden stakes, pedals, and wooden rollers for running. It is mainly based on the training ground for mermaid recruits, and is built according to production drawings.

"You can go and have a look first. I am very satisfied with my masterpiece."

Peter stroked his chin and thought for a long time, his expression as sad as ever.

"If you insist, I can try."

"Then it's settled."

Wang Yue was afraid that the other party would go back on his word, so she patted the captain on the shoulder and turned around and ran out.

He immediately summoned all the zombies to gather at the captain's door, and also called non-combatants to the meeting.

"For our long-term development, I decided to go to the mainland to get some intelligence. During my absence, the sailors must train well with the captain."

Hearing Wang Yue's loud speech, Peter walked out of the house very reluctantly and raised his hand to everyone, but he put his hand down halfway, showing no motivation at all.

"The production materials have been transported to a special wooden house. If you run out, remember to go to the storage room to get them. I hope that you will all have used up these materials by the time I return."

The listless zombie did not respond, but the carpenter Bella had already taken out the hammer. She was about to destroy Wang Yue's prestige, but was stopped by the kind-hearted Baby.

"He found a lot of materials for me, so let him go this time."

When Wang Yue's eyes fell on Bella, he confirmed from the rise and fall of its chest that it was now the terrifying carpenter soul.

Bella used a fierce look to warn Wang Yue to finish his boring speech quickly.

"In short, I hope everyone can work hard to improve themselves during this period and not waste such good time. Thank you for your support."

Wang Yue ended her speech with a standard official ending and sent the zombies away.

Before leaving, he checked each of the renovated cabins one by one to make sure there were no safety issues.

“Are mass-produced wooden houses reliable? Why do I feel that only the houses I make by hand will not collapse?”

In order to quickly build fifty wooden houses, Wang Yue mobilized all the living dead and lost souls to move together, with two pets as supervisors.

Everything was done on an assembly line. Wang Yue just looked at the drawings and assembled the parts, completely becoming a machine without any emotions.

But after the inspection, there were almost no problems. There was no sign of looseness between the wood. Plus, there was no wind or rain here, so it shouldn't be a problem to use it for a few months.

"It took a lot of effort to demolish it. We even asked Bella to do it herself to remove the foundation."

All the houses in the shelter were replaced with [First-level Wooden Houses]. Although the [Basic-level Wooden Houses] previously made of undead wood were all made by masters, they had no other effect except being sturdy.

The [First-level Wooden House] made by Wang Yue comes with a better rest effect.

If the player logs off in the cabin, the experience reward he gets is 5% per day, and the average NPC will wake up in the cabin after sleeping half an hour less.

In the future, if we have higher quality wood, the new wooden houses will allow NPCs to sleep less.

"If it's a tenth-grade wooden house, I guess once someone goes in, they'll wake up in the blink of an eye."

Wang Yue once asked Bella this question, but she only demonstrated to Wang Yue what a house made by a master carpenter looked like.

Bella took the same quality wood from Wang Yue, the only difference was that it was assembled by a master carpenter. At last glance, the reward effect of the master-level wooden house was doubled.

Unfortunately, tenth-level wood can only be produced in full-level copies. The most practical thing to do right now is to find second-level trees on the mainland.

"Okay, let's go see how the other side is preparing."

Wang Yue was supposed to go to the sheep pen, but only the first mate Bai Ge and the tailor Bill were left there, taking turns herding the sheep.

The remaining Lost Souls are still hunting on the ice field, slowly getting their bodies used to the battle.

Helmsman Omu prefers the Trial Island where he can go fishing. At Wang Yue's request, he fishes in the central lake while taking care of the lost souls.

Although he would occasionally catch two or three big fish, he would knock the fish unconscious and throw them back into the sea.

Over time, there are fewer and fewer ferocious fish here, and cat people can also join in fishing activities and become self-reliant.

“It’s a good harvest today.”

Wang Yue came from a distance, looking at the mountains of silverfish on the ice with envy.

In addition to building houses these days, he also tried fishing by following the tail logs.

Without the assistance of the secondary job system, the possibility of catching a fish is very low. Wang Yue only caught two or three small fish and finally put them back.

"Stop talking nonsense here. When will the fishery you promised me be realized?"

"I'll go to the mainland to check out the situation. I'll definitely help you keep an eye out for good fishing spots then."

"Humph, I hope you don't break your promise, or I'll leave you hanging in the air all night."

"Hey, if I find the pelt of a new monster on the continent, who will do the job of delivering the materials to the leatherworker?"

The old man snorted again and turned to look at the fishing rod as if he didn't care.

Wang Yue took the opportunity to pick up a ball of snow and threw it towards the calm water.

"Don't pretend, old man. I will give it to you when the time comes. I'll trouble you to take care of the Lost Souls these days. If you feel cold, change the map. I think the jungle is good. It's also close to the sea, which is perfect for you to go fishing."

The helmsman was of course angry that the fish school was caught, but Wang Yue made a new promise and he had no reason to refuse.

It doesn't take too much energy to just look after them, not to mention that these lost souls were his former companions, so taking care of them would be acceptable to Ogi.

"Then come back quickly. I'm not a free babysitter."

Seeing that the other party was not angry, Wang Yue stepped forward, put her arm around the old man's shoulders, and asked in a low voice.

"You said before that there are many wonderful places in the kingdom. Is that true?"

"What do you want to ask? Are you planning to do something shameful? I'm telling you, young people should exercise more. Don't think about catching women when you can't even catch fish all day."

Wang Yue showed a subtle smile and patted the old man's back hard.

"You are just imagining things. I was talking about a good place to eat. Be careful and I will tell the leatherworker about what you just said."

"If you don't talk nonsense, I have a good place to tell you."

"Okay, we've made an agreement."
