Chaos Lord: Infinite Guidance

Chapter 14 Brick Making and Wall Construction

"It seems that you need good health to do anything."

Wang Jue muttered something to himself as he picked up 500 red bricks with his bare hands. He felt as if he had run a kilometer and was clearly exhausted.

Bandhu then bounced over and shouted, "Those silly players are wandering around outside, each one with ill intentions. I reckon someone's going to break into the fence..."

His words came to an abrupt halt. His eyes turned to the automatic apple tree behind Wang Jue, then to the red bricks on the ground, and a look of doubt gradually appeared on his face.

"Damaged the fence?"

Wang Jue was able to foresee this situation.

At this moment, Mad Dog King, Carp Jason, and Catfish Sika stood beside Wang Jue like bodyguards.

Wang Juejue said to Jason and Sika, "You two patrol along the edge of the territory. If any player comes ashore, kill them without exception!"

"My name is Jason the Carp!"

"My name is Nyanko-sensei!"

The two fishmen simultaneously pounded their chests with their fists, then walked away side by side, heads held high.

Wang Jue watched them leave. He didn't know if the other Chaos Lords' subordinates were obedient, but his own subordinates were all easy to manage and had excellent execution capabilities.

"Perhaps this is a sign of high loyalty."

Wang Jue pondered silently, while picking up a red brick with his left hand, weighing it in his hand, and tapping it. He felt that the brick was of decent quality and quite sturdy.

"Hey, where did you get so many bricks?"

"Bandhu asked curiously."

"We built it ourselves!" Wang Jue replied, then added, "Bandehu, you go on patrol too. Report back to me if anything happens!"

"OK!"

Bandhu responded, then turned and hopped away, but quickly hopped back, saying to Wang Jue, "Are you ordering me around? I'm not your subordinate, why should I listen to you!"

Before Wang Jue could speak, Mad Dog King, who resembled a bodyguard, stepped in front of Bandehu and shouted, "Grandpa is asking you, do you want money or your life?"

"Fine, you have bodyguards, you're ruthless!"

Bandhu was a little scared and tried to make the mysterious scarecrow jump away.

Wang Jue narrowed his eyes, a thought flashing through his mind. He quickly called out to Bandhu, "Bandhu, I plan to face the second attack of the merman army tomorrow. This second attack will be much fiercer than the prologue, and the defense will be extremely difficult. I am not confident of victory. I hope you can lend a hand then."

"What? The murloc army's second attack?"

Bandhu's eyes lit up, and he said, "Okay, I understand. I'll definitely help you then!"

He spoke with absolute certainty, but inwardly he thought, "Help you my ass! I'll definitely seize the opportunity to launch an attack. Hmm... I can incite those players outside to launch a sneak attack. Yes, that's it! Haha, I'm a genius! I'll teach this idiot lord a lesson!"

As Bandhu began to plan, a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.

Wang Jue then flicked his arm, sending the mysterious scarecrow a hundred meters away.

"Bandhu is a rebellious fellow, definitely not honest. Giving him a sure opportunity to cause trouble is better than constantly being on guard. But if we want to make money, we still have to rely on him. I hope he won't let me down."

A meaningful smile appeared on Wang Jue's face. He looked down at the 500 red bricks, which were piled up on the ground in a small heap, and didn't seem like too many.

"There aren't enough bricks; we need to keep building!"

Wang Jue rested for a moment, then continued making bricks.

After working for nearly two hours, Wang Jue plopped down on the ground, panting heavily.

He has used up 10 units of clay, and made a total of 5000 bricks.

"We can't keep going, this is too tiring. Mad Dog King, you carry the bricks, let's build a temporary fence around the apple trees to keep anyone from damaging them!"

Wang Juejue Mad Dog King said.

Mad Dog King scratched his head this time, stammering, "Grandpa...asks you...for money..."

Seeing his expression, Wang Jue frowned and said, "What's wrong? Can't you move bricks?"

Mad Dog King actually nodded and said, "Grandpa..."

"Alright, enough with the lines. A martial arts master like you can't even do manual labor!"

Wang Jue shook his head, feeling helpless. After resting for a while, he began to move bricks and build a wall himself.

Of course, for Wang Jue, building a wall was simply stacking bricks like building blocks.

By this time, the sky was already getting dark.

Wang Jue noticed the change in the sky and guessed that this game world also had a day-night cycle. If it was night, the visibility would definitely be poor, and it would probably not be suitable to start a battle.

"Hopefully no players will launch a sneak attack tonight. Just to be on the safe side, let Jason Koi and Sika Namazu keep patrolling. Mad Dog King has to protect me. As for me, I'm afraid I won't be getting any sleep tonight."

Wang Jue silently made plans. He continued carrying bricks, without feeling sleepy or hungry. When he got tired, he only needed to rest for a while to recover his strength.

He speculated that, if they wanted, players in this world might not need to sleep.

Of course, if you want to eat or sleep, that's certainly possible too.

A moment later, a crescent moon appeared in the sky, and the automatic apple tree suddenly swayed. Wang Jue then received a system notification: "Ding, the automatic apple tree has completed automatic harvesting. 30 apples have been automatically converted into 7.5 units of food."

"oh!"

Wang Jue looked at the automatic apple tree, which was now devoid of fruit.

"I forgot to pick one to try! This apple tree blossoms early, bears fruit at noon, and ripens late. Does it not work at night? Is it a twelve-hour workday? Tsk tsk, can't it ripen again overnight? That doesn't make sense!"

Wang Jue muttered to himself, feeling that he had found a direction to guide him.

Next, Wang Jue continued building the wall, and he did so for a whole night. Not only did he use up all 5000 red bricks, but he also bought 10 units of clay and made another 5000 bricks, which he also used up.

During this time, Bandhu jumped over a few times and muttered "idiot" under his breath.

Wang Jue heard it, but didn't argue with him.

The sky was already beginning to lighten. Wang Jue looked at the results of last night: a rough, square brick wall about 1.2 meters high surrounded the automatic apple tree, and to the south of the apple tree, there was a high platform made of bricks.

This is a huge project that was built using a full ten thousand bricks.

Wang Jue climbed up the brick platform, took out his longbow, nocked an arrow, and drew it a few times, feeling quite pleased with himself.

"It's almost time; it's time to prepare for the murloc army's second attack!"

With a thought, Wang Jue brought up the territory management panel in front of him. After a few operations, a system broadcast soon sounded.

"Ding! Attention all residents of Xuanzhou Village! The merman army is gathering and is expected to attack in three minutes. Please prepare for battle!"

"What's going on?"

Bandhu was dozing by the fence gate when he heard the area announcement and lazily rubbed his eyes.

Outside the fence gate, in the sea of ​​light and mist, a dozen small boats floated on the surface, with players standing or sitting on them. They had obviously also heard the system broadcast.

"They're here! They're really going to fight!"

"Bandhu wasn't lying, guys, let's get ready to move."

"The soldiers of Xuanzhou Village are formidable; a direct confrontation is not advisable. Let's take advantage of the chaos while the fishman army attacks!"

"Hey, you scarecrow, you said this lord is a fat sheep, don't tell us you're lying!"

Bandhu regained consciousness, and he was overjoyed.

"The murloc army is really coming! Great! My chance for revenge has finally arrived! Hahaha!"

Bandhu burst into laughter.

One of the reasons these players outside haven't left is because of him.

He took the initiative to talk to them, revealing information about the fishman army's second attack, and suggested that they take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, kill Wang Jue, and divide his wealth.

"Why would I lie to you? Everyone, listen to my instructions, spread out, and we'll go ashore once the fishman army's attack begins! Oh, and whatever you do, don't come near me, this scarecrow will attack automatically, and I can't control it..."

Bandhu shouted loudly, looking every bit like a commander.
