My Doomsday Territory

Chapter 13 Finding a Master

Translator: SumTLMan

The next day, the morning sky was brightly lit as faint golden rays cut through the dense clouds. The golden rays cast their radiance all over the sky.

Tang Yu sits cross-legged on the bed with his eyes slowly opening.

The first half of his night was spent on sleep.

Inside and outside of the castle are like two different worlds. The outside is a mess with all kinds of corpses littered around as they continued permeating a rotting stench. Even if he has grown accustomed to this kind of life, it still doesn’t feel too good waking up to this scene.

But it’s completely different inside the castle.

The air inside the castle is exceptionally fresh, more refreshing than air one would find in a lush forest and more invigorating for the heart and soul. The temperature is also very hospitable. Although it’s currently summertime outside, with even the nights being sultry. However, staying in the castle doesn’t produce these sultry feelings at all. It just feels cool and refreshing on his large comfy bed. All of these qualities combine together to give Tang Yu a good night’s sleep. In addition, awakened ones are more resilient than ordinary people. The buildup of daily fatigue is usually restored after only four or five hours of rest.

The latter part of the night was spent on cultivation.

In other words, he was cultivating refined spirit power.

His cultivation of spirit power was very fast at first. However, throughout the whole day, Tang Yu absorbed less and less refined spirit power. He felt a vague illusion that he was still full of ownerless spirit power. So, he spent a lot of time cultivating all of this spirit power and turning it into his own strength.

“I have already reached the peak strength for a first order awakened one. As long as I absorb enough spirit power, I can break through and enter the realm of second order awakened one. But going at this rate, I’m not ascending as fast as those high classed awakened ones…”

It’s a matter of course that if someone else’s class is higher, they will improve faster. But the actual ascension speed for strength will vary depending on whether one faces a trial of the sword and spear through battle. However, Tang Yu is completely hung up on how slow he’s improving. His cultivation speed is already equivalent to a fifth order awakened one. With the system’s way of directly grabbing spirit power, can this promotion speed still be considered slow?!

After eating breakfast…

Tang Yu changed into the latest equipment produced by the workshop. A stainless steel long sword and a black one-piece battle suit with red stripes.

The battle suit is leather armour. But of course, this isn’t the kind of half covered, half exposed leather armour. Reality isn’t a game. One can’t just wear equipment on their body and gain +++ to their total defensive ability… If one wears equipment the same way one does so in-game, only covering the key parts of the body. Tang Yu only has two words when these people face the demonized beasts, get **.

This battle suit is very comfortable when worn. At first, he thought it would be a little sweatier when wearing it on a very hot day like this. But the results have proven the workshop’s black technology is extraordinary. The battle suit is light and breathable when worn on his body. Even while moving, he felt his movements were very smooth and natural.

In addition, with the fur from the crimson demonized beast used as the main material. Needless to say, the defensive ability of this armour is phenomenal. Even the stainless steel sword requires no small effort to cut a small opening on this battle suit… This is the gap created by using advanced materials. After all, the basic long sword is only made from ordinary iron.

Tang Yu checked himself with the mirror in the castle and felt very satisfied with the appearance of the battle suit.

“I kind of feel like this battle suit is a bit revealing.”

…………

The survivors all got up early and tasted the sweetness from their labour. With hard work, they can receive food as a reward. These people are also very happy with this kind of arrangement. Yesterday, they received meat in one of the two canned foods as a reward. When this happened, many survivors wept with joy. They don’t remember how long it’s been since they last had the taste of meat.

“It’s Leader Tang!”

Someone cried out and suddenly rubbed their eyes.

Walking in from the distance, there were three familiar figures. Tang Yu in front, followed by the armour master and the girl seen from yesterday. However, except for the armour master, they almost didn’t recognize Leader Tang and the girl who could shoot Ice Spikes!

In the distance, Leader Tang was dressed in a black and red striped battle suit with a long sword at his waist as it gleamed under the sun.

Behind Leader Tang, the armoured master seems to be a loyal and dedicated guard, carrying a long spear and silently following along.

On his other side, Elaine was dressed in the same coloured black and red mage robe. Her hood covered most of her face while her broad robe covered most of her small body. In her white hands stretching out from her cuffs, Elaine tightly clutched a twisted branch with a wide top and a narrow bottom. This was a staff.

Three people were slowly walking.

Surrounding them were demonized beast corpses, dried blood and damaged houses which haven’t been cleaned up yet.

The scorching sun hung high above as if rising from behind the three.

At this moment, it seems as if the world has lost its colour. There are only these three figures left walking slowly within their vision.

“Glug.”

Someone couldn’t help swallowing their saliva.

This kind of battle suit seems to be an exhibition of an anime cosplayer or character from a comic convention. During the doomsday, it obviously looks gaudy and shouldn’t be easy to move in. But when the two people along with Leader Tang were wearing it, everyone felt this equipment looked incomparably harmonious, as if everything is as it should be.

The two with Leader Tang looked like soldiers gloriously returning from the battlefield after facing a sea of blood or mountain of corpses.

…………

Even if they were amazed at such equipment, the survivors all had to tend to their own responsibilities. They knew when to ask and when not to ask questions. So soon, they all left one by one to begin their duties.

The only one left was Chen Haiping who stayed behind.

Although the porter job is well paid, Chen Haiping doesn’t want to mix in with this line of work. He doesn’t want to live his life like this, just waiting to die.

He became an awakened one late. But step by step, his strength steadily improved until he also ranked top among the shelter’s awakened ones. However, with the demon wave attack and the collapse of the shelter. This all made him understand his mortality and that there was nothing he could do in the face of a real disaster.

After seeing the strength of Leader Tang and the other masters, Chen Haiping is even more eager to become stronger.

He wants to hunt the demonized beasts!

He also hopes he can make some contribution to the establishment of the shelter!

He hopes the shelter can be established sooner. But he understands a shelter cannot only rely on a small number of masters. Although his strength may not be the strongest. But as a soldier, his contribution can at least be more than hauling some stones around.

Chen Haiping made this statement and quietly waited for Leader Tang’s reply.

Tang Yu also fell deep into thought.

Initially, he didn’t have so many thoughts. A few days ago, he was a bottom level survivor struggling during the doomsday. After acquiring the system, the castle was only built to protect his life. However, if he truly wants to develop his territory well, he needs detailed planning. Even with the system plug-ins, it’s not just about selecting and buying buildings that will allow him to build a complete territory.

Although the territorial map can provide an early warning of when the demonized beasts are about to strike. Chen Haiping is reasonable in saying it’s impossible to solely rely on No. 1 and No. 2 and his followers every time trouble arises. His masters should be his territory’s trump card rather than the conventional force. Tang Yu would prefer his future followers to spend more time on improving their strength rather than patrolling the territory.

What’s more, if he wants to develop his territory, it cannot do without the participation of the survivors. When the number of survivors increases in the future, whether in regards to defence or management, he will need some trustworthy personnel to fill those positions.

The territory should have a regular patrolling force.

After these two days of observation, he has also gained a certain insight into Chen Haiping. This man has served as a soldier. His marksmanship and combat skills are also quite good. He has some bottom line to his conscience, but he isn’t rigid in his actions. The most important aspect is that on the territorial map, the dot representing Chen Haiping is a green dot, which is enough for him.

“I have agreed to your request. But now, with the construction of the shelter not yet completed, there is no specific job arrangement for you. We usually patrol the territory more as a way of enhancing our strength rather than guarding against the demonized beast attacks. After all, the strength of first order awakened ones can only deal with the most common demonized beasts.”

Chen Haiping gave a wry smile. He really couldn’t refute this remark. Then he heard Leader Tang say: “Well, I’ll find you a master soon, and you can learn some skills from this person in order to deal with the demonized beasts.”

A master?

He wondered if this master is the one in the armour? If he can learn from this armour master, there is no doubt his strength can rapidly improve in a short period.

In the next moment, he saw a tower-like figure coming from afar.
