chapter 19 : get ready
Long Su found himself losing interest in the dragon blood trees that were covered in black clouds, which obscured every inch of their tree bodies.
He turned away from the trees, his mind already racing with thoughts of how to build an army of skeletons.
With the strengthening potion he had purchased earlier, he knew that it had the potential to greatly enhance his army's power, and he was eager to put it to use.
Opening the vial, he carefully administered the potion to his Skeleton Militia, watching as their strength increased before his very eyes.
[skeleton Militia]
Level 1
Strength: 5

Speed: 5
Will: 3
—————-
Long Su watched in awe as his Skeleton Militia's strength increased by 2 points after administering the potion.
But that wasn't all—their defense , speed and will also increase by 1 point each.
Long Su was stunned. He had known that the strengthening potion was powerful, but he never could have predicted the extent of its effects.
To see a hundred of his Skeleton Militia's attributes increase to 5 points was beyond his wildest expectations.
You must have known that for a Level 1 unit like the Skeleton Militia, having an attribute at 5 points was a rare and remarkable achievement.
It was a clear indication of the unit's potential for growth and evolution.
The increased attribute points to 5 point meant that his Skeleton Militia had a chance to upgrade its level and break through its current limitations.
Long Su felt a surge of excitement and pride. He had always believed in the potential of his troops, and now he was seeing that belief validated before his very eyes.
His troops were becoming more powerful and formidable, and he knew that this would give them a significant advantage in future dungeon explorations.
The 100-strength liquid was powerful, and he could see the immediate impact it had on his troops.
But he also knew that he would need more resources to truly bolster his army's capabilities
The skeleton army was a formidable force to be reckoned with, its strength lying in its ability to overwhelm enemies with sheer numbers , They felt no pain, no fear, and no hesitation. They would continue to fight until their bodies were destroyed or The death of their enemies
considering the gold coins he had left, which totaled 3700.
With the daily income from his territory, he would have an additional 500 gold coins each day, and with the upcoming income from his territory before the next dungeon exploration, he would have an additional 1000 gold coins.
With a total of 5200 gold coins at his disposal, Long Su was determined to use them as the foundation for a new era of his Skeleton Militia.
With 100 units of Skeleton Militia's increased strength and capabilities, Long Su made his way to the craftsmen's camp.
He was filled with a renewed sense of purpose and a determination to further enhance the 100-unit equipment and capabilities.
As he entered the craftsman's camp, he gathered the skeleton craftsmen around him. He discussed improving the weapons and armor of his troops.
Long Su explained that he wanted to move away from the traditional bone-based equipment and instead utilize metal for the construction of body armor, swords, and shields.
He believed that this would provide his troops with greater protection and increased offensive capabilities.
The skeleton craftsmen listened attentively.
his bony fingers itching to get to work on the new project with different types of metal, weighing the pros and cons of each and considering how best to incorporate it into the designs.
Long Su watched the craftsmen with a sense of satisfaction. He knew that the shift to metal equipment would be a significant improvement for his skeleton militia, and he was eager to see the results. As the craftsmen got to work on the new designs,
He turned his attention to the hunter spear he knew that using them last time he was able to get around the wolf pack's.
He calculates that's currently he had 22 spear-wielding skeletal units and that he would need at least a team of 100 spear-holders, so they are equal to
his newly strengthened Skeleton Militia.
He decided to order an additional 78 spears, which would cost 10 gold coins each, for a total of 780 gold coins.
With the order placed, Long Su turned to the 78 skeleton militia units. "Come forward and exchange your swords for these new spears," he commanded. "You will be joining the ranks of the newly reinforced Skeleton Militia."
The skeletons obeyed, their bony fingers grasping the new spears. As they fell into formation with the rest of the spear-wielding skeletal units
At the same time, he spent an additional 1000 gold coins to summon a 200-skeleton militia, a powerful and versatile group that would add significant strength to his army.
But he didn't stop there. He also spent another 220 gold coins to summon an additional 220 skeleton slaves.
With this new influx of troops, the total number of skeleton militias rose to 287, and the number of skeleton slaves rose to around 500. While the slave units had previously struggled against enemies like goblins, they had proven their worth during the battle against the wolf.
Their ability to slow down opponents and serve as meat shields had been invaluable, and Long Su recognised the importance of leveraging these strengths.
As the new troops joined his ranks, Long Su surveyed his army with a sense of pride and confidence. The skeleton militia would add increased offensive capabilities, while the enlarged force of skeleton slaves would form a sturdy defensive line, protecting the more vulnerable members of the force.
' The rest of the money will be used to arm the 100-strong militia so they can become my main army in the next dungeon.' With this thought, Su was ready to go out of his dimensional world.
But he noticed movement from the corner of his eye. The skeleton craftsmen emerged from their camp, holding newly forged iron swords and shields.
The weapons gleamed in the dim light of the dimensional world; their sharp edges and sturdy construction were a testament to the skill of the craftsmen who had created them.
