Chapter 41: I haven't eaten yet



The individual strength of the undead is relatively weak, and their basic advantage is numbers. Unfortunately, since coming to the other world, the number of skeletons that Li Ziyu can obtain is very limited, so he cannot increase his troops and his growth rate has also been curbed.

Now, with the cemetery of the dead, 100 units of soul energy can produce 10 skeleton undead every day. A little bit adds up to a lot, and the cemetery of the dead can be expanded, and soul energy can be used to create more undead, solving the problem of manpower.

Li Ziyu waved his hand, and 100 units of soul energy were injected into the cemetery of the dead.

Under the moonlight, the undead were busy, bringing all the corpses and weapons back to the mobile fortress and cleaning up the battlefield.

Of the 500 lizardman warriors, less than 100 ran back, and even the leader Am was killed. Weapons, bones, and energy were a huge harvest, and the hidden danger was temporarily solved.

The undead have returned to the fortress. The undead whose soul fire had turned red before have turned back to dark blue flames after confirming that the city lord has been resurrected. They are no longer as crazy as before, which makes Li Ziyu breathe a sigh of relief.

He had never expected that his hope would trigger a mutation of the undead. Fortunately, the undead mutated, otherwise he might not be able to defeat so many lizardmen.

After cleaning up the battlefield and gathering resources, Li Ziyu activated the mobile fortress and went to meet up with Liu Xingxing who had gone their separate ways. The lizardmen had all come to his side, so Liu Xingxing's side should not have been attacked.

After checking the location, I was stunned.

Huh?

So close to me?

On the map displayed by the system, a light spot was flashing. That was exactly where Liu Xingxing was, very close to him. It didn't take Li Ziyu much time to find the treasure-hunting cat-man mobile fortress in the off state.

Li Ziyu checked Liu Xingxing's condition and found that this guy was not affected. The lizardman warriors' attention was focused on the undead and no one paid any attention to him.

The treasure-hunting cat-man's mobile fortress started up and returned to the Undead Fortress. The two merged into one, and Liu Xingxing trotted into the Undead main building.

"Brother! Brother, are you okay?" Liu Xingxing ran in shouting.

When he saw what was in front of him clearly, he stopped talking immediately. Li Ziyu was just having dinner leisurely. The table was full of fruits and barbecue. He had fought with the lizard man and was quite exhausted. He was hungry.

While tearing the barbecue, Li Ziyu looked up at Liu Xingxing and nodded to him, "Yeah, I'm fine, I'm fine."

"Brother, as long as you are fine, I feel relieved... Is the barbecue delicious?" Liu Xingxing's attention was completely not on Li Ziyu's words. He stared at the barbecue, almost unable to restrain his saliva.

"Huh?" Li Ziyu paused while tearing the barbecue, realizing that Liu Xingxing looked a little strange. "You haven't eaten yet? How about we eat some together?"

"Isn't this bad?" He said it with his mouth, but his body honestly moved to the front of the table, picked up a piece of barbecued meat that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside and stuffed it into his mouth.

You really haven’t eaten yet?

Li Ziyu was about to tell him to eat slowly when she heard Liu Xingxing's stomach growl. She had a guess in her mind, "You... haven't eaten anything?"

"Um, no, I don't know where to find food. I saw some wild fruits, but I didn't recognize them and didn't dare eat them for fear they might be poisonous." Liu Xingxing spoke incoherently with his mouth full.

Li Ziyu showed an understanding look on his face. No wonder, the two cat people under his command probably couldn't catch any prey, so they just starved until now?

"Why didn't you tell me before?" Li Ziyu asked casually, throwing down the barbecue in his hand.

"I'm just thinking about finding good things for big brother first." Liu Xingxing said with a silly smile.

Li Ziyu was stunned by what he said, and felt a little sad in his heart, what a silly boy.

The two of them had not been in contact for a long time, and Li Ziyu had no idea what kind of person Liu Xingxing was. But based on his current behavior, he could still be recognized. As long as this kid didn't have any inappropriate thoughts, everything would be fine.

He pushed the barbecue plate in front of him towards Liu Xingxing and said, "Eat slowly. There's plenty. Tell me if you're hungry next time. Otherwise, how would I know you haven't eaten? Oh, I still have some meat here. You can take some away. Have your two catmen eaten yet?"

Liu Xingxing chewed the barbecue vigorously and shook his head. "If I don't eat it, the two cats will rebel if I can't find anything else to eat."

Li Ziyu smiled, nodded, called the undead, and asked them to send some food to the cat man. Those two were good assistants in treasure hunting. It would be fun if they starved to death. Li Ziyu would be useless as he was left alone.

I really overlooked this point.

Among the many advantages of being undead, one is that they don't need to eat. They are just a pile of bones, and eating anything is useless, so they don't need food at all. Since traveling through time, Li Ziyu has only had to take care of himself. It is true that if one person is full, the whole family will not be hungry. But it is different for other races.

As a city lord, other benefits can be a little worse, but food must be guaranteed. Food is the most critical and affects loyalty. If there is no guarantee of enough food, the probability of racial rebellion among subordinates is very high. The city lord may not be killed by the indigenous people or monsters, but die at the hands of a group of hungry subordinates.

Li Ziyu was used to the undead, but forgot about Liu Xingxing and his two cats. It was really difficult for them to get food. After all, they had just traveled through time, so not only were their fighting abilities weak, but their numbers were also small.

In fact, when Liu Xingxing was hungry while treasure hunting during the day, he had already realized this. He liked treasure hunting, but he didn't know how to hunt. Moreover, he was not familiar with the plants in the alien world and couldn't pick wild fruits. He could only hold on and wait for the Undead Lord to appear. At that time, he was extremely grateful that he had clung to his big brother and that his big brother should have food.

When they met in the evening, he was too embarrassed to ask for food directly. Instead, he thought about achieving something before talking about food. Unexpectedly, his first treasure hunting location was actually someone's ancestral grave, and he was discovered. He was chased all the way and it was not until now that he was able to eat barbecue.

Before traveling through time, he lived in a peaceful era. Even when he went out treasure hunting, he always carried dry food with him. Even if the dry food was not enough, he knew a lot of edible plants. He had never experienced hunger before, but this time he finally experienced it and understood how uncomfortable it felt to be hungry.

After eating two pieces of barbecue and having enough food in his stomach, Liu Xingxing finally had the mood to look around. There were still traces of blood in the main building, a fishy smell in the air, and blood-stained weapons piled nearby. It seemed that the battle was quite brutal.

He was not far from the Undead Fortress and was watching the battle secretly. The scene of groups of Lizardmen warriors besieging the fortress and fighting with the Undead made his blood run cold.

If the undead were replaced by himself, Liu Xingxing felt that he could die 800 times.

The number of lizardmen far exceeded that of the undead, but somehow, the undead became the final winners, and even won a great victory, chasing the lizardmen everywhere. He saw all of this, and now seeing the situation in the main building, he could appreciate the tragedy even more.
