Fang Hao left 1,000 skeleton soldiers in the Pigmen Village.
They were to assist in the defense of the village.
Fang Hao controlled the skeleton soldiers to descend from the city wall, coming face to face with the Pigmen Clan Leader, Petty.
“Petty, how is the progress?” Fang Hao walked up to him and softly asked.
A skeleton approached head-on, suddenly speaking, startling Petty and making him tremble, his big ears rising.
Then, he quickly realized that Fang Hao was once again using a spell to control the skeletons.
“My lord.” Petty hurriedly saluted, and the group of pig-headed humans behind him followed suit.
“Alright, take me to see your progress.” Fang Hao directly said.
“Yes, my lord, please follow me.’1
Petty led Fang Hao out of the village.
After a 20-minute walk across the forest,
they reached the mining area.
Outside the mine, the construction of the wall has already started, along with simple wooden houses and Pigmen left on watch.
“Following your instructions, my lord, the defense wall has begun construction, and the roads are also being worked on.” Petty explained on the side.
After officially becoming a subject of Fang Hao,
the Pigmen Village experienced a significant development. The basic structures within the village were upgraded by Fang Hao.
You could say that it boosted the village’s development by several years.
But these changes did not bring joy to the Pigmen.
Instead, their hearts were filled with apprehension as they carefully carried out the tasks assigned by Fang Hao.
This fear towards Fang Hao wasn’t just because he was their lord, but more so because of his ability to control, the undead army, and his various peculiar abilities.
The pig-headed-human hierarchy had private discussions about this matter.
Was Fang Hao a human with special abilities, or was he an undead disguised as a human?
No one could figure it out.
But they all agreed on one thing: they couldn’t afford to provoke Fang Hao and give him an opportunity to dispose of their village.
Therefore, they didn’t dare slack off on the tasks assigned by Fang Hao.
All of the men, women, and children in the village were mobilized to construct defense walls and roads.
Seeing Fang Hao silent, the pig-headed humans close by immediately became nervous.
Their manners showing their fearfulness.
“Good, the progress isn’t bad.” After a slight pause, Fang Hao softly spoke.
Whew!!
Suddenly, there were several relieved sighs from behind him.
“As long as my lord is pleased, we are just doing our jobs.” Petty stood by, speaking softly.
“Okay, arrange for people to go to the main territory tomorrow and bring back some household items for the residents.” Fang Hao spoke again.
The standard of living in the Pigmen Village wasn’t high, given its nature as a small village.
After Fang Hao obliterated the Fireblade Tribe, he garnered thousands of sets of wooden beds and various furniture pieces.
He sold some in the regional channel but still had leftovers.
He planned to give these items to Pigmen Village, which could improve their living environment.
Upon hearing Fang Hao’s words, Petty and the others looked bewildered.
They quickly responded, “Ah? Oh, okay. I’ll arrange for people to go first thing in the morning.”
“Alright, that’s it for now. I’m leaving.” After saying this, Fang Hao immediately dropped the God’s Presence state.
The uncontrolled skeleton’s soul fire in its pupils was extinguished.
After standing still for two seconds, it walked straight toward the direction of the Pigmen Village, returning to its original position.
“Clan Leader, what does the lord mean by this?” An older pig-headed human asked, puzzled.
Petty hurriedly waved his hand in dismissal and softly called, “Bolton!”
Bolton immediately stepped forward, “Clan Leader.”
“Right, Bolton. You will take people to the main territory first thing tomorrow morning to collect the household items that the lord mentioned.”
“Yes, Clan Leader.” Bolton nodded in understanding.
“Alright, let’s go back then.” Petty quietly said, leading the rest of the Pigmen back to the village.
After dropping the God’s Presence state, Fang Hao woke up from bed.
He opened the window and looked at the sky outside.
It was gradually getting darker. In a world without computers and smartphones, it was about the right time to go to bed.
He wasn’t sure whether or not it was a result of consuming the Magic Potion.
In his original world, he was popular amongst mosquitoes.
But in this world, he no longer had that concern.
Even if mosquitoes appeared, he showed no signs of being bitten.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
The door was tapped lightly.
“Master, you’re up. It’s hot today, would you like me to prepare bathwater for you?” Eira’s voice rang out from outside the door.
This was due to her hearing Fang Hao’s movements and coming to remind him. Fang Hao thought a little, a bath sounded rather good. “Alright, go ahead.” “As you wish, Master. Please wait a moment.” The sound of Eira’s footsteps faded away.
Soon after, when Fang Hao descended the stairs and arrived at the bathroom, warm water had already been prepared in the bathtub.
Fang Hao shed his clothes and comfortably sank into the tub.
“Ah, this is great.” Indeed, it must be said, Eira was very thoughtful; the water temperature was perfect.
The bathroom filled with a faint steam.
Creak!
The bathroom door opened, and Eira, wearing a simple tube top and shorts, walked in.
Her snow-white skin, beaded with droplets of mist, appeared even more translucent and lustrous.
“Master, let me help you cleanse your body.”
As she said this, she stood by the tub, scrubbing Fang Hao’s back.
Fang Hao didn’t utter a word, just enjoyed the gentle motions of the young girl.
Both of them were clear about it, the relationship between a master and a servant in this era.
The intimate atmosphere continued for quite a while.
After Fang Hao had finished bathing, Eira served him by helping him dress, her face flushed.
Early the next day.
Fang Hao was awakened by a knock on the door.
“Come in.”
Eira opened the door and said, “Master, Mr. Bolton has arrived with his people.”
“Oh, they’ve come so early.” Fang Hao said, yawning and stretching.
Eira walked into the room where she helped Fang Hao to dress properly. “Master, what would you like for breakfast?” Eira asked softly.
“Something simple would do.” Fang Hao replied.
“Alright.”
With what had transpired the previous night.
Eira attended to Fang Hao without the previous restraint and shyness, their relationship had become much closer.
After getting dressed and finishing his washing, Fang Hao walked directly into the manor house.
From a distance, he saw Bolton leading a group of pig-headed humans, all waiting on a bench.
Upon seeing Fang Hao, they hurriedly stood and bowed, “Good morning, Lord.” Eira invited Bolton and his men to wait in the hall.
However, the pigmen chose to wait outside, for the lord to awaken from his slumber.
“Alright, let’s go to the warehouse and see what you all need.” Fang Hao yawned and led the group towards the warehouse.
Bolton nodded and led the other pigmen to follow closely behind Fang Hao.
Thanks to Fang Hao’s favourable impression of Bolton, his status in the Pigmen Village had risen significantly.
Outside of the village’s clan leader and several elders, Bolton had the highest prestige.
Plus, Fang Hao’s domain was truly intimidating.
Outside and within his domain, barring the bunny girl they’d just seen, all that moved were well-equipped skeleton bones.
This made the pigmen, who were already terrified of Fang Hao, even more apprehensive and cautious.
After passing through several buildings, they arrived at a large open space enclosed by a fence.
The open space was stacked with a variety of scavenged items as well as a massive amount of basic resources.
“Those beds and furniture there, I believe they’re better than yours. Load them up, and you can take them later.” Fang Hao pointed out.
Bolton and the others stared at the scene before them, their eyes wide.
To collect so much furniture, how many tribes had their lord annihilated?
Upon further thought, their decision to surrender and pledge allegiance was indeed a wise one.
“Thank you, Lord.” Bolton and the others expressed their gratitude and started to load the items onto the cart.
“By the way, have you guys already had breakfast? Would you like me to have breakfast prepared for you?” Fang Hao continued to ask.
“We’ve already eaten, thank you for your concern, Lord.” Bolton promptly answered.
They hadn’t slept until now like Fang Hao.
The journey from the Pigmen Village to Fang Hao’s domain took a few hours’ travel.
They’d already eaten breakfast and set out from the village at the crack of dawn.
“Hmm.” Fang Hao nodded, allowing them to load the items onto their carts themselves..
