Undead Scourge who love farming

After the undead side achieved victory in the battle, it was time to clean up the battlefield.

This was also one of the aspects that Loren valued most in the war.

If they cannot collect enough demon corpses, their undead army will go bankrupt.

After all, although his undead army could be resurrected without damage, it still required energy. Although the [Undead Ranch] could absorb free magic in the air and store it for use, it was too slow and he couldn't accumulate enough resurrection opportunities.

The real majority of the magical power comes from these magically imbued corpses.

After the undead army throws these demon corpses into the [Undead Ranch], the [Undead Ranch] can extract and store the magic power from them.

At Loren's command, all the undead laid down their weapons and began to carry away the demon corpses and broken swords and shields on the ground.

The countless undead quickly formed a line like ants, continuously transporting the demon corpses to the base.

As expected, the undead are more efficient. If there weren't so few undead in the territory, I would really like to replace all the labor force with undead.

After briefly marveling at the strength of his undead forces, Loren prepared to lead his army back to the city.

After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, the demonic tide is something that is almost invincible, and most of them came to this city because of the impact of the demonic tide.

Now, Loren wants to tell them that the demonic tide is not invincible, and as long as they follow him, they will never have to worry about safety again.

It is foreseeable that after this incident, the people in the city will have a stronger sense of belonging to the city, and their rule will be more stable.

Even if someone wants to rebel in the future, no one will be able to join them.

Soon, the procession carrying the demon corpses arrived in the center of the city, and the city's residents flocked to their windows to watch the massive procession.

"My God, is this a monster?"

"As expected of the omnipotent lord, he was even able to repel the demonic tide. I've decided, I'll live here for the rest of my life."

"Didn't you previously distrust the lord and try to run away?"

"Hey, they're just young and naive."

After witnessing the seemingly invincible demon fall before their very eyes, the people were filled with excitement. Some of those whose families had been destroyed by the demon almost rushed forward to whip the corpse.

Meanwhile, in addition to the corpses of these demons, what also attracted the attention of the people was the army that was fully clad in iron armor and completely covered up.

The soldiers marched in perfect unison, their footsteps perfectly synchronized, creating a powerful and awe-inspiring scene that greatly impressed the people in the city.

Under Laurent’s deliberate control, the event, which resembled a military parade, lasted for nearly an hour.

The results were naturally quite remarkable.

Nowadays, there are almost no traitors in cities, and loyalty to oneself is increasing rapidly.

If someone were to come out now and try to lead them in a rebellion, almost no one would agree; they would even be thinking about how to report them.

During the army's entire parade, Laurent also took the opportunity to give another speech.

Although it's a long story, it boils down to one point.

That is loyalty!

After all, most people in the Middle Ages had received little education and were somewhat ignorant, so if possible, Laurent wanted to win over the hearts and minds of the people as much as possible.

Since you can believe in all sorts of strange gods, why can't you believe in me, this extraterrestrial demon, this high-dimensional invader?

Those gods can't give you any benefits, but I, the great benefactor Luo, have provided you with safe land and arable food.

So, shouldn't they treat me like a Buddha and worship me?

After the small parade, Lauren returned to his home.

After taking a bath with the help of his maid, he lay back in his room and began to think about the future development of his territory.

The territory's recent development has begun to slow down, and the various departments have stabilized. Now we can begin to implement the plans that Loren wanted to realize at the beginning of his journey.

That is industrialization.

The territory is currently not suitable for expansion due to insufficient military strength and population. Therefore, development can only begin with improving productivity.

Therefore, it was time to begin building the steam engine, a revolutionary invention.

Although it took humanity thousands of years to successfully industrialize in the past, if humanity had been united and dedicated to scientific research, it might have been possible to complete the First Industrial Revolution thousands of years earlier.

Moreover, this is a world of magic. In my previous life, the demand for workers was enormous, and the undead could solve the problem themselves. Other territories that needed to develop could also make up for their shortcomings through magic.

The only problem was that Laurent only knew the principle of the steam engine, but did not understand how to actually make such a machine.

But that's okay, let the professionals handle the professional matters.

Thinking of this, Loren immediately summoned his maid and asked her to recruit some experienced craftsmen, blacksmiths, carpenters, and so on, within the territory.

Soon, Loren's orders spread throughout the territory.

Influenced by the recent victory over the demonic tide, the people in the territory were extremely enthusiastic about the orders of their god-like lord, with many even declaring that they would start working as blacksmiths from now on.

However, these people were all turned away by government officials.

After all, what the lord wants are experienced blacksmiths and carpenters, not some fanatics.

Two days later.

Through the government's continuous efforts, a total of more than a dozen craftsmen were found.

The longest-serving employee has worked there for over thirty years, while the shortest has worked there for over ten years.

At this moment, these people stood together nervously, waiting for the summons of the legendary lord.

The group stood at the door for a while, then a maid appeared and led them inside.

Upon entering the room, they soon saw the lord, who had recently been dressed in a very mysterious manner.

However, judging from appearance alone, this lord has almost nothing special about him except for his slightly handsome face.

"Greetings, everyone. Welcome to my city lord's mansion."

To their surprise, the lord was not as arrogant or disdainful as they had imagined; on the contrary, he was very respectful.

This made them a little nervous, but also more enthusiastic about the work ahead.

After all, for ordinary craftsmen, a lord is considered a very high-ranking official.

After introducing himself, Loren said nothing more, but instead walked to the kettle that was boiling water and let the craftsmen observe him.

That's a very common scene of boiling water in ordinary households, a scene that I believe everyone is familiar with.

But the lord had them boil water, which puzzled them greatly, yet they still didn't dare to ask.

Lauren remained silent, simply continuing to stare at the kettle.

Soon, under the continuous heating of the flame, steam kept coming out of the kettle, causing the lid to sway and make a constant metallic clanging sound.

It was at this moment that Loren turned around and looked at everyone.

"What did you see?"

What do you see? I see they're boiling water?

All the craftsmen were baffled by this question.

Did this lord lose his mind during the battle two days ago?

Just as they were wondering, Lauren spoke up.

"I see motivation."
