Chapter 382 - 382: Two New Unit Types, Four Million Gold Coins, Black Hawk Arrow Tower (3)
“Greetings, the host has been waiting for you. Please follow me.”
The butler gestured for them to enter, exuding an elegant sense reminiscent of a medieval noble butler, causing them to instinctively turn their gaze toward the player who appeared seasoned.
The latter bit their lip. “Let’s go in.”
As they followed the butler to a mansion at the center of the estate, they finally met the legendary Islander inside the hall.
The first impression was that he was handsome, especially the natural aura of authority he exuded, making one feel a sense of power upon first meeting.
“You may have a seat.”
The five individuals were somewhat overwhelmed by the favor but obediently took their seats. They placed their hands on their knees, sitting up straight like well-behaved schoolchildren, not daring to move.
Ji Chen couldn’t help but find their appearance somewhat amusing.
In private chats, they seemed like casual internet friends, but in reality, they looked so well-behaved.
“I won’t waste much time. Have you brought the items?”
“We’ve brought everything.” The leading player immediately responded and then placed the items for the trade on the table—blueprints for various structures.
When negotiating with them initially, considering the sparse defensive structures of the Crown of the Ocean, the only viable defensive buildings available were the Death Alchemy Cannons and Elemental Arrow Towers. For the Crown of the Ocean, with its extensive coastline, these were far from sufficient.
In return for giving up five basic Bone Forges and one intermediate Bone Forge, he obtained sixteen identical blueprints for defensive structures.
[Blueprint: Black Hawk Arrow Tower]
[Level]: 3-Star
[Effect]: 0 Can shoot highly penetrative crossbow arrows, dealing significant damage, @ Illuminate the area, providing enemy warnings.
[Resources Required for Construction]: 10,000 units of iron, 2,000 units of crystal, 2,000 units of mithril, 2,000 units of adamantite.
[Area]: 20x20x50
[Attack Range]: 20-1500 (meters)
These 3-star Black Hawk Arrow Towers, compared to Elemental Arrow Towers and Alchemy Death Cannons, were not as powerful.
However, their advantage lay in their quantity and decent anti-air and ground attack capabilities.
Sixteen Black Hawk Arrow Towers were enough to construct a complete coverage of firepower on one side of the coastline.
After verifying the quantity, Ji Chen took out the five basic Bone Forges and one intermediate Bone Forge.
Seeing the items for the trade, the expressions of the group showed excitement.
They were all undead players, and with these Bone Forges, they could raise a formidable undead army, showcasing the terror of an undead legion.
Before coming, they had already agreed on how to distribute the loot, so there were no issues of unfair distribution.
Ji Chen asked with genuine interest, “It seems like you all have a good relationship?”
The lead player smirked and said, “The five of us were originally friends on Earth. We are childhood buddies who grew up together. Coincidentally, when we were playing games together back then, we all ended up trapped here.
Luckily, we were born relatively close to each other, so we decided to stick together and work our way through to survive!”
Friends?
Ji Chen looked at the friendship between them and couldn’t help but feel a sense of admiration.
He was mostly a lone wolf, surrounded by either subservient subordinates or emotionless units.
But he didn’t really envy them.
In fact, he believed that this was the most suitable state for him.
Step by step, climbing to the top of this world was what he truly desired to accomplish..
