The Necromancer's Fourth Catastrophe-Chapter 289: Killing Two Birds with One Stone
Therefore, various factors made Fang Ka decide to lay low for a while longer.
First, he needed to improve his own abilities and increase the player base.
Seeing the update announcement Fang Ka released, players couldn’t help but get excited.
Iron Black Pot, who was mining with Hand Rubbing Diamonds, exclaimed after seeing the update announcement, "Diamond, hahaha, did you see the update announcement?"
Hearing Iron Black Pot’s words, Hand Rubbing Diamonds nodded immediately, "My eyes aren’t failing me, of course I saw it."
"To be honest, I really didn’t expect that in just a few days, Southern Beastman Island would be completely open to us."
"Now we can buy land over there directly. How about it? Should we head over now and consult with Mage Fang Ka about the land prices there? Then settle down there?"
Iron Black Pot nodded right away, then grinned, "Sure, mining is the same anywhere anyway."
"Based on the previous trends, the mining earnings are usually about the same, so let’s submit the ores now and head over to Southern Beastman Island immediately."
"The last time during dinner, I checked the blueprint for a wooden villa, and now I have a rough idea."
"Plus, frequently building with Lord Xu and Mr. Zhou, I feel like as long as I have enough wood, I can make a house I’m satisfied with."
Hearing Iron Black Pot’s words, Hand Rubbing Diamonds widened his eyes and said, "Wow, Black Pot, I didn’t expect you’d be secretly doing homework."
"How about this, I’ll transfer some money to you later, and you can build a villa for me too, how about it?"
Hearing Hand Rubbing Diamonds’ words, Iron Black Pot rolled his eyes speechlessly, "How much can you give me? Building a house takes time. With that time, I could go mining and earn an unknown amount of money."
"Can you cover all the potential earnings for me?"
Hearing Iron Black Pot’s words, Hand Rubbing Diamonds sighed slightly and changed his tone, "If we calculate the time by mining earnings, it’d be a bit too high. How about this?"
"I suggest that while you’re building a house, I help out, and after your house is done, you come and help build mine. How about that?"
Hearing Hand Rubbing Diamonds’ suggestion, Iron Black Pot thought for a moment and finally nodded slightly, "That could work."
Hand Rubbing Diamonds immediately excitedly patted his mining cart, "Then let’s get going now. It’s just right that my cart is nearly full."
Iron Black Pot nodded gently, "My cart is almost full too. Let’s go then."
The two of them then dragged their mining carts hurriedly towards the outside of the mine.
On their way to the Array of the Sound of the Cyan Wood to submit their ores, they happened to run into Sea Flip.
After dying once, Sea Flip evolved again into a Blood Demon and joined Hand Rubbing Diamonds’ Blood Demon Corps. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
Seeing Hand Rubbing Diamonds, Sea Flip warmly greeted, "Hi, Captain! Here to submit ores? What a coincidence!"
Seeing Sea Flip, Hand Rubbing Diamonds nodded at him, "Yeah, quite a coincidence. By the way, Flip, I remember you already bought land here on Mohan Island, right?"
Hearing Hand Rubbing Diamonds’ words, Sea Flip, though a bit puzzled, still nodded, "That’s right, I already bought land here, leveled a piece on the mountain, and built a two-story stone house."
"Captain, why suddenly ask about this? Are you planning to buy land here on Mohan Island too?"
Hearing Sea Flip’s question, Hand Rubbing Diamonds immediately shook his head, "Although Mohan Island is very nice with a beautiful environment, honestly, I don’t like living on mountains."
"I still prefer living in flat areas. You should’ve seen the latest update announcement, right?"
"Southern Beastman Island is now completely open to us players, and I think it’s quite suitable there, so I plan to buy land there."
"Seeing you now, I thought I’d ask if you’re interested in buying land there too and being my neighbor?"
Hearing Hand Rubbing Diamonds’ words, Iron Black Pot rolled his eyes beside him and quipped, "Diamond, do you have some special fetish or something? Why are you asking everyone you meet to be your neighbor?"
Hearing Iron Black Pot’s words, Hand Rubbing Diamonds glared, "Black Pot, don’t slander people without proof. What do you mean by asking everyone to be my neighbor?"
"I ask you and Flip to be my neighbors because I’m close to you two! Aside from you two, who else did you see me ask to be my neighbor?"
Hearing Hand Rubbing Diamonds’ words, Iron Black Pot shrugged slightly, "Oh right, right, got it."
Hearing Iron Black Pot’s dismissive and disbelieving words, Hand Rubbing Diamonds almost couldn’t resist getting angry.
At this time, Sea Flip spoke up, "No, thanks, Captain. I’m pretty content already with one house."
"Plus, Mohan Island has a huge lake. I can visit it for the scenery whenever I have time. I think it really fits my aesthetic."
"Southern Beastman Island is full of trees. Although it has lakes too, they’re like the small lakes on Kain Island, nowhere near the comparison to Mohan Island and don’t fit my aesthetic."
"Also, I don’t want to spend money recklessly right now. I want to save up for a top-tier enchantment."
Currently, Fang Ka has many top-tier mages under him, so top-tier enchantment is easily accessible and open to players now.
But considering the players’ goofy nature, if the pricing were cheap, they might make multiple sets of armor and weapons for enchantment, wasting the top-tier mages’ time and energy. Thus, Fang Ka priced the top-tier enchantments quite high.
Players can afford it, but it’s definitely a big expense.
Once they enchant their weapons and armor, they definitely won’t dare to mess around carelessly.
This way, the top-tier mages under him can focus on other tasks for him and players have a goal to strive for, truly a win-win situation.
