"call--"
"Is this the end?"
After combining the last piece of golden-coated gel magic crystal and magic sealing stone, Ouyang Qianjin breathed a long sigh of relief.
12 days.
For a full 12 days, Ouyang Qianjin, Xue Manqi, and 59 others stayed inside the fortress and didn't go anywhere else.
In order to enhance her combat power, Ouyang Qianjin began to create her golems and gargoyles eight days after the battle ended.
She created over 1,500 alchemical products.
Including the previous ones.
She now commands nearly 2,000 alchemical artifacts and 1,000 skeleton soldiers.
This was all because of the need to smelt ore.
Otherwise, the time could definitely be shortened even further.
However, thanks to the waiting time for the ore to be smelted into finished products, Ouyang Qianjin no longer had to live the days of making 400 a day, almost breaking her hands from shaking them.
Even so, Miss Ouyang still felt it was too little.
After all, Pirión is the capital of the centaurs.
Given that even a satellite fortress has 20,000 troops stationed there, the Centaur capital must have at least 100,000 troops stationed there.
There were also commoners and royalty who could use bows and arrows.
If you calculate it carefully, the population of the royal city must be at least four or five hundred thousand.
According to Sebastian, centaurs are creatures where everyone is a soldier.
My current maximum force is 3,000 troops.
Even with the addition of Xue Manqi and his men, who were 'of little use,' they were still struggling when facing an overwhelming number of enemies.
no way.
Now even the ores he had were all turned into finished ingots, and this was the most he could produce.
Quite a few carriages were freed up.
In fact, due to the capture of another fortress, the number of carriages increased rather than decreased, reaching approximately 9,000.
It would be quite good to use it to store the spoils of war in the royal city later.
"Young Miss, should we dismantle these furnaces and equipment?"
After finishing up the remaining matters, Canon, dressed like a nouveau riche, approached Ouyang Qianjin and asked her a question.
"Why not demolish it? Take away all the useful parts. There are plenty of empty trucks anyway."
Having acquired several thousand unicorns and several thousand woolly cattle, Miss Ouyang would not look down on these 'second-hand goods'.
After all, once I arrived at Black Cat Paradise, I would need to make some modifications to some of the things inside.
These furnaces, machines, felt, and giant hammers will probably come in handy when they're placed in Black Cat Paradise.
Even if you don't use it, just having it there can enrich your 'paradise', right?
In contrast to Ouyang Qianjin's busy schedule.
These days, Xue Manqi and his men have been very idle.
Aside from eating, they sleep, or they practice each other's skills.
However, because they stayed for a rather long time, Xue Manqi and the others are now using Ouyang Qianjin's supplies.
After all, they only brought seven days' worth of food with them when they went out.
It's already taken four days.
Now that they've been stuck here for another 12 days, it's no wonder there's no supplies left.
Ouyang Qianjin understood this very well, so she distributed the supplies she had.
It's just a matter of food and water.
No problem!
Just give me some money!
Everyone expressed their understanding of this.
It doesn't exist!
It's just money!
I didn't bring it with me when I went out, but I owe it to you, I'll pay you when I get back!
Anyway, I sent my men to collect the alchemical materials before leaving, and I'll give them to Ouyang Qianjin when I get back.
Fortunately, the carriage and horses were readily available.
No one felt uncomfortable with Ouyang Qianjin's money-grubbing behavior.
On the contrary, they were happy that Miss Ouyang accepted their gifts.
It feels like being controlled by a CPU.
After all, we're all seasoned veterans.
Sometimes, it's not that we're afraid you'll ask for money, it's that we're afraid you won't ask for money.
Because what's free is often the most expensive.
After everything was tidied up, Xue Manqi and his men, who were bored out of their minds, couldn't wait to walk ahead of the caravan and clear the way.
Of course.
Because the convoy was so long, they were eventually divided into smaller groups to look after the entire convoy of 9,000 vehicles.
In Ouyang Qianjin's words, since they wouldn't be involved in any battles anyway, they might as well do something practical.
As a result, after entering the other road from the previous Y-junction, we did encounter centaur patrols from time to time.
Each team consists of 20-50 people.
Ouyang Qianjin naturally didn't let these patrol teams go either.
Every time we encounter one, it results in a total wipeout.
After all, no one can say for sure what means the other party might have to contact 'Pirion', or even escape back to report.
That way, I might encounter a large centaur force before even reaching the mountain city.
After all, along the way, the terrain has been constantly expanding.
However, it is not a suitable place for large-scale troop operations.
However, as more vegetation appeared on the road, the 'scenery' of this underground space gradually changed.
From the initial two fortresses that were surrounded by nothing but dirt and dust, the area has now transformed into a large river with moss, vegetation, and even several small streams gradually converging.
If you follow the river downstream, you should be able to reach the location of the Pirión royal city.
Hmm... following the river...
