He knew a man named Yi Ren Tie Chui, who was a rather famous fellow. He had been dealing in stones and ores since the first day he came to this world.
It was said that someone in the chat channel had seen him and that he was the lord of the dwarves in the mine. The moving castle was a huge mine that continuously produced stones and ores, so there were resources available for trading on the first day.
Although I don’t know whether it’s true or not, it’s certain that he has resources. Many people have traded with him and succeeded. He is a reputable resource businessman.
For the Skeleton Undead Moving Castle, bones and soul energy are the most important, but other materials are also indispensable, especially stone and wood. Most buildings require these two materials to build.
Li Ziyu stopped eating and checked the existing resources in his warehouse through the system. After three days, he still had a lot of meat stored. It would not make any difference if he took some out. After all, one person could feed the whole family, so he just had to make sure to save some food for himself.
Being in the wilderness, all kinds of resources are extremely scarce, not to mention wood, even stones are nowhere to be found. Even if they are found, mining them is a difficult task. His skeleton undead has no tools to mine stones. Could he rely on scratching with his claws?
It seems like a good idea to exchange meat for some stones and store them.
Thinking of this, Li Ziyu stopped eating and opened the chat window of a big hammer to chat with him privately. Of course, he would not be stupid enough to talk about things like transactions in the chat channel in front of everyone.
The law of the dark jungle is very applicable in the other world. When I first came here, the chat channel was much more popular than it is now. But in just three days, the names that often appeared in the chat in the past two days disappeared without a trace.
If you don't participate in the chat, you won't be able to know many messages in the first place. If you participate in the chat and talk too much, it may lead to danger. It is most important to strike a good balance.
Private chat window.
[Don’t Want to Take a Driving Test (Li Ziyu’s online name)]: Hello Big Hammer, I want to exchange some stones. How do you do it?
[A big iron hammer]: What do you plan to exchange for the stone?
[Don’t want to take a driving test]: Food, meat.
【A Big Iron Hammer】: Thirty units of meat for one unit of stone.
…Oh my god, robbery?!
Although there is no fixed price for exchanging materials, isn't it too much to exchange thirty units of meat for one unit of stone?
Li Ziyu was very unhappy. He had been running around in the wilderness for three days, but the food he had accumulated was not as much as he had imagined. At most, he could only get a few hundred units of meat.
Maybe because he hesitated for too long, a big hammer took the initiative to send a message.
[A big iron hammer]: I ask for a high price and pay you back on the spot. I don’t like to do a one-time deal, so we are open to negotiation.
After receiving this message, Li Ziyu felt much better. This was more reasonable. If he really had to kill thirty units of meat in exchange for one unit of stone, he would rather not return it and wander around the wilderness looking for resources.
[Don’t want to take a driving test]: Third unit?
[A Big Iron Hammer]: I said to pay you back when you land, not to divide it by ten, which is twenty-seven units.
[Don't want to get a driver's license]: Can you give me a lower price? How about three or five units? I'll give you a price, six units, how about that?
[A Big Hammer]: Are you deliberately changing the stone? Twenty-five units!
…
After some bargaining, the final price was set at fifteen units. Even though the price was cut in half, Li Ziyu still felt very distressed. He reluctantly took out four hundred and fifty units of meat and exchanged them for thirty units of stone.
It is very convenient to trade in the system. Once a transaction is initiated and confirmed by both parties, the system will automatically exchange items and store them in the warehouse.
Looking at the thirty units of additional stone, Li Ziyu sighed. Fortunately, his undead didn't need to eat, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to produce hundreds of units of food in this barren wasteland.
After getting the stones, Li Ziyu began to consider building a new building.
【Weapon Workshop】
[Introduction: The place where skeleton weapons are made]
[Construction Requirements: Bones*10 units, Stone*10 units, Soul Energy*10 units]
【Occupied area: 4 units】
Compared with the moving speed of the fortress, Li Ziyu is more inclined to improve the combat effectiveness of the skeleton undead. Only with combat effectiveness can he gain more. More importantly, the weapon workshop is... cheap.
Li Ziyu has the soul energy, and the stones have just been exchanged. Now all he lacks are the bones. Hope is right in front of him.
"Speed up! Find prey! We need more prey!"
Li Ziyu clenched his fists and shouted excitedly. As he shouted, the speed of the mobile fortress increased to the highest level again. The soul fires jumped one after another, like searchlights, scanning the wasteland.
He was excited, but the wild beasts in the wasteland suffered. That night, there was chaos and the moving castle of the skeleton undead swept across the wasteland with a rattling sound.
The undead are extremely sensitive to the breath of life. They can easily distinguish each other's breath through the difference in breath.
No matter how powerful it is, if there is a strong life force, the fortress will turn away from it from a distance, but if there is a weak life force, the fortress will rush towards it like a wolf seeing bones.
The first ray of sunlight broke through the darkness, the morning sun slowly rose from the horizon, the night passed, and a new day began.
The mobile fortress that had been running wild all night slowly stopped and entered a static state. It's not that the fortress cannot move during the day, but moving during the day requires consuming soul energy. Poor Li Ziyu doesn't want to waste soul energy on moving, so he usually moves at night and rests in dormant mode during the day.
When there is soul energy supply, the skeleton undead have 100% combat power during the day. If there is no soul energy supply, it will drop to 60% or even lower. If it is in the dark, the skeleton undead can exert 120% combat power. When there is soul energy supply, it can even exert 200% combat power. This is a racial characteristic.
After sweeping all night, Li Ziyu felt a little tired. He stood at the window, looked at the rising sun, and gave the order to enter dormant mode.
[Hibernation mode activated...]
The mobile fortress trembled violently, and the bone wheels turned into serrated digging drills, rolling up the wasteland and slowly sinking the fortress into the ground. The rolled-up wasteland fell naturally, burying the fortress, and the ground returned to flatness.
[Warm reminder: It has entered dormant mode.]
The surroundings became dark, and soon became bright again. In dormant mode, the interior of the fortress was illuminated by the soul fire of the skeleton undead. It was not dark, but just blue, which gave a somewhat weird feeling.
Although it is a fortress of the undead, the city lord is a human after all, so there is a ventilation system. It does not feel stuffy inside, breathing is smooth, and the temperature is suitable.
The bone chair turned into a double bed again. Li Ziyu lay on the bed and opened the system interface.
After a night of raiding, he collected more than thirty units of skeletons. It was a little less, but at least he had enough materials for the weapons workshop.
Before falling asleep, he gave the order to build a weapons workshop.
