Chapter 162: Upgrading to the Main City

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Li Xiang spent two days in Zhou Yutong’s Fairy Kingdom.

He wanted to stay a few more days to see if there was a chance to sleep with Yang Mi or Zhou Yutong.

Unfortunately, the two women seemed to have discovered his scheme. They guarded themselves heavily against him and did not give him any chance. In the end, he could only return home.

Li Xiang returned to the Demon Country through the cross-border teleportation array. The first thing he did was to head towards the Sky Workshop.

The Sky Workshop was an auxiliary building of the Demon Castle, but he had never been there much.

Before he got close, he heard a series of clanking sounds, accompanied by a scorching aura.

The Sky Workshop was at the western edge of the demon castle. It did not take up a large area. There were ten flame demon blacksmiths and ten flame demon helpers working inside. But the production was high.

The main reason was that both the flame demon and the flame demon had top rank forging talent. With the castle and territory’s attribute bonuses, as well as top-rank forging tools, they were able to produce various equipment in a short time.

The Purgatory Divine Crossbow was made here.

By now, they had already made the 23,000 pieces of Purgatory Divine Crossbow!

As Li Xiang thought about it, the 20 demons in the workshop immediately put down their work and came out to pay their respects.

“Lord!”

“Sorry to disturb you!”

......

Li Xiang didn’t say anything more. He walked around the workshop and looked at the Purgatory Divine Crossbows that were in progress. He nodded and said, “You have forged twenty-three thousand of the thirty thousand Purgatory Divine Crossbows. How long will the remaining seven thousand take?”

One of the flame demon blacksmiths hurriedly said, “Lord, if we are not in a hurry, we only need seven days to forge them!”

“Oh, a thousand a day! Not bad.”

Li Xiang looked at the tools and stoves there. He had thought that the equipment here was top-notch. But after checking, he realized they were all only C-Rank. That was far from what he had expected.

He thought to himself. Previously, he had been most concerned about the army and war, but he had not paid enough attention to the most basic construction of the territory.

If even the Sky Workshop, an important department related to all the equipment of the demon army, were so simple, wouldn’t the other departments be even more of a mess?

“I’ll expand this place soon. You guys go ahead with your job!”

Li Xiang turned around and left, returning to the castle hall. After sitting down on his throne, he opened the system panel.

Opening the castle option, he fell into deep thought.

Only then did he realize that his castle was still only at Level 1.

Although the requirements for upgrading the castle were harsh and the cost was high, it was nothing to him.

Yet he had never noticed this before. That was too much.

He tapped lightly on the castle upgrade option.

[ Ding! ]

[ The castle has been upgraded. Lord Level has reached Level 10, and the territory area has reached 10,000 square kilometers, with a wonderful building. You have met the requirements. Upgrading requires 1,000 crystal coins. Do you want to upgrade? ]

“Upgrade!”

Swish!

Instantly, a wave of light spread out with him as the center.

As the wave of light expanded, the land of the castle broadened. The houses became taller and larger, and the castle’s buildings became more exquisite.

However, Li Xiang did not pay much attention to the changes in the castle. What surprised him the most was some of the buildings around the castle, including the already upgraded Wonder Magic Tower, was included in the expanded castle.

At the same time, an arrow tower appeared on each corner of the castle. The arrow towers automatically generated crossbow bolts.

The castle’s Sky Workshop expanded four times, and its equipment level was raised to B-Rank.

In addition to the 30 flame demon blacksmiths and 30 fire demons, there was an even more burly purgatory forger with a giant hammer. His quality had reached A-Rank.

Although there was only one, it was a qualitative improvement for the Sky Workshop.

After upgrading the demon castle, it occupied a larger area and had more functional buildings.

[ Ding! ]

[castle has been upgraded. You can choose to open new functional buildings. Please choose! ]

[ Demon Barracks: The interior space. The Demon Army can train and live in it. It can quickly recover stamina and gain a certain amount of EXP daily. Cost: 1,000 soul points, 10 crystal coins. ]

[ Grocery Store: Items can be refreshed every day. No restrictions are applied. Cost: 1,000 soul points, 10 crystal coins. ]

[ Teleportation Array: The territory can teleport to any place with a teleportation array. Cost: 1,000 soul points, 100 crystal coins. ]

Li Xiang looked at the three options. Without any hesitation, he chose to build all of them.

However, he was in a dilemma when he chose the location.

It was not that there was no place, but the three types of buildings all had the same function in the Demon Country.

For example, there was Demon Barrack outside the castle. Although it was a little crude, it could still recruit demons. However, it had not a self-contained space but a ground that could recruit demons.

That place was close to the demon lair. The demon soldiers that were recruited from the demon lair would gather there.

However, the ground and the demon lair were still some distance away from the demon castle. That was a little uncomfortable.

That was because the system did not support building outside the castle.

“Don’t build it yet. Continue to level up.”

Li Xiang pressed the level up button again and upgraded the castle to Level 3.

After reaching Level 3, the castle would no longer be a castle but a palace or a group of palaces.

That group of palaces had different templates.

There were western-style palaces, and there were also eastern-style palaces.

Li Xiang naturally liked eastern-style palaces. They were exquisite, grand, and dignified.

Thus, after choosing the eastern style, the entire demon castle underwent a drastic change, and its area grew once again.

More buildings enveloped the palace, and even the far-off trading area and cross-border teleportation arrays were integrated into the palace.

However, it was still a little far from covering the demon lair.

Thus, he clicked upgrade again.

[ Ding! ]

[ You have not satisfied the castle upgrading requirements. Please activate again after you have met the conditions. ]

“Hmm? Have I not satisfied the conditions? I’m only at Level 4 and already stuck here?”

Li Xiang checked and found that from Level 3 to Level 4, there was a new condition. It was to complete the territory upgrade mission in addition to his level, the number of functional buildings, and the area of his territory.

“F*ck, I don’t even need to complete the mission for the first three levels, but I need to complete the mission again to level up. That’s good. Let me see how crazy this territory-leveling mission can be!”

Opening the mission list, a mission update appeared at the top.

[ Castle Leveling Mission ]: Kill a Legendary Level wild monster.

“F*ck, that’s it?”

Li Xiang was a little speechless. But he still looked at Alicia and said, “Alicia, find a Legendary Level wild monster in the territory and kill it!”

“Yes!”

In just a few minutes, the mission list on Li Xiang’s mission panel showed that he had completed the mission.

Then, he opened the castle interface again and clicked upgrade.
