Chapter 101
Chapter 101
A long list appeared in front of Ibro. He didn't think much and started buying any tool that might help his villagers in building, farming, logging and etc.
he also found some tools for other jobs like forging and making furniture and cooking and etc. he bought them all. He used another 30k gold coins to buy a massive amount of these tools.
He used in this small-time over 80k gold coins which he spent from the copper and silver coins he had. He still had less than 120 gold coins in his treasury.
His necessary needs were fulfilled so he began to look randomly at the rare section goods. There were really rare things there.
A lot of hidden buildings layouts and many other strange things appeared in front of him. He suddenly remembered the hidden building he got.
It was in his Inventory in the shape of a small building statue. He didn't know what benefit it would bring him, but he was sure it would bring good benefit to him.
When he looked at the prices of these hidden buildings he sucked cold air. The cheapest was 10k gold coins and it seemed like a low-level hidden building from its name.
The cheapest was a hidden building for a grocery shop. What could a grocery shop bring to the village to make it worth 10k gold coins?
He looked for a higher, stronger building. The most expensive one was a small castle that cost 70k gold coins.
Although he could buy it, he didn't make that decision yet. He remembered another thing he actually needed. So he asked:
"Show me the token goods."
"List has been created. Player can view the list now."
Tokens were the most essential thing he needed right now. He had 100 tokens that gave him 1000 full armed special type soldiers.
If he can get much more of these then he would be ready to pay whatever it cost. When he checked the list he was alarmed.
There were a lot of tokens in that list. What alarmed him was the quantity that was sold. He found over 10 different types of army units being sold.
Each type had different tokens in it. For example, there were over 10 types of cavalry tokens.

There was light cavalry, heavy cavalry, magic cavalry, scout cavalry, special sword cavalry, special lance cavalry, flight cavalry, archer cavalry, heavy archer cavalry and shield cavalry.
Each type had different grades of tokens. There was a white token which granted him 10 units of level 0 cavalry.
The red token gave him 10 units of level 20 cavalry. And so on. There were cavalry tokens that could give level 100 soldiers.
The price of a single green token of this level was 10k gold. So if he wanted to have 100lethal squad with level 100, he could achieve it with his current wealth. But what about the rest of the tokens?
The price tag of each white token was 100 gold coins each. That meant he could buy 100 tokens with the gold needed to buy one green token.
What alarmed him was that the number of each token offered in this market was no less than 10k token for each type.
That meant he wouldn't be the only one to have these tokens, especially if their price was really affordable.
He decided to continuously store these tokens from here. The money he had was almost enough to buy 1000 white tokens.
He decided to sell some goods first. He put the extra layout building designs for sale. He had over 40 types of it. When he put it in the market, the price was automatically generated.
Each design was priced between 50 to 100 gold coins each. There was a choice to sell them to the merchant associations with a price of 75 gold coins.
He chose to sell them directly to the merchant associations. He needed to raise a lot of gold rapidly. He thought about selling some ores or some potions or even some weapons.
But he withdrew this idea immediately. This act would harm his village in the future and he mustn't use it. He only got over 3k gold coins from this trade.
He wasn't sad as any more gold coin would be good for him. Before he started his plan, he first bought a lot of seeds for the farms. That cost him nearly 5k gold. He bought different kinds of seeds.
He bought seeds for vegetables, fruits, wheat, corn and many other products. He even looked for farm animals or animals his villagers could breed like chickens and cows but he didn't find any of them.
He moved then towards the tokens list. He now had over 100k gold coins. He decided to use 100k and left the rest for any sudden needs.
He could buy 1000 tokens now, but what types of soldiers could he buy? He first bought 100 tokens of heavy cavalry. He always admired any heavy type soldiers.
He then thought a lot about what he most needed right now. The environment in the underground world was plain in nature. That made the long-range soldiers had the upper hand here.
He didn't need a lot of melee class soldiers as he would be more than enough to hold the frontlines in this early stage of the game.
But he needed to plan for the future. He had a barrack in the village. He could obtain a lot of melee class fighters soon. Then what he lacked was cavalry and long-range fighters.
He bought 200 archer tokens and 200 magician tokens and the rest he mixed between light cavalry, heavy cavalry and lance cavalry.
He needed to use their high mobility to strike the enemies in their weak points. When he finished, he had around 15k gold coins left.
He didn't feel sad but he felt regret. He had no time. He noticed that when the tokens he bought didn't affect their prices at all.
It seemed these tokens are an opportunity given from game to the players. He needed to get the biggest advantage from it.
He then exited the market to feel surprised. All the goods he bought were organized neatly around the market. Due to their huge amounts, they took nearly more than one-quarter of the total size of the village.
That sudden appearance of all these goods made the villagers in the village feel curious. So in front of Ibro, there were a lot of goods lying on the ground and many villagers were walking between them to inspect them.
Ibro just smiled when he noticed the appearance of Mony. He didn't think his shopping would create such a scene.
"I only left you for a moment my lord to find you create such a mess."
Ibro just smiled and then said his instructions at once:
"I have bought a large amount of food units and wood units. There are also stone units and iron units. Build enough warehouses to keep all of them. then begin to transport each resource to its specific warehouses immediately.
After you finish you must start building the barracks at once. After barrack, you need to start building the rest of other free buildings or the buildings I gave their designs to you."
He didn't wait for her answer, as time never waited for anyone. He had less than 3 days to prepare the village defenses. Although he met some towers in the market, their prices were astronomically high.
The cheapest one was over 100k already. He planned to get it after he destroyed some monster zones in these three days. He could just use his tokens and lay in wait for any invaders to kill them.
But he didn't like this way of dealing with things. He changed. He would always take the initiative. The source of danger always came from these monsters. So he would hit them before they hit him.
He collected the tokens he bought and then went towards the cave opening outside the village. There he found Megedy and Aras still standing in wait for him. They were guarding this opening as he instructed before.
This time he wasn't going to enter this underground alone, even with two newbies he was considered alone. He had another task for both of them, so he said:
"You both did a nice job. Now I need you two to make another assignment. I need you to go back and receive the barrack from Mony. I want you to train a lot of soldiers, the more the better."
Megedy looked at Aras then looked back at Ibro and said:
"There is something I need to tell you, my lord."
Ibro felt there was something off here, so he asked immediately:
"Was there anything that happened in the underground territory?"
"No my lord. Everything is peaceful down there."
"Then what is wrong?"
"It's just about the features of every barrack. Every barrack must be linked to one general.
This general can allow the barrack to transform villagers to soldiers with a maximum of 1000 villagers per barrack."
Ibro felt weird, why would be there such a law? That was a very limiting rule.
"If we don't have generals, what should we do then?"
"We can train them as militia, but they won't be true soldiers. Also when villagers transform into soldiers in the barrack, he gets a free skill and free equipment that matches his class.
But if we trained militia then we need to supply them with weapons. Also, they would take longer to raise their levels."
Ibro felt relieved when he heard that. He had a lot of weapons which was enough to fully arm 1000 men. But now he had to improvise.
"How much a villager transformation will cost me?"
Ibro wasn't a fool; he knew there was nothing called free in this world. Megedy answered automatically:
"Single villager costs 1 gold coin. So 1000 villager will cost 1000 coins."
He was about to suggest that Ibro should wait for a while till he could get enough money but he was immediately shut up.
In front of him, Ibro gave him 1000 gold coins which he put neatly on the ground then he said:
"Take those. Also, I left a lot of weapons and arms with Mony. Use them to arm another 2000 villager as a militia. In 2 days I will come back here.
When I come here I want to see the 3000 soldiers are ready to enter battle at any moment. Also, tell Mony to start building the walls. Tell her to finish it in these 2 days."
"Shouldn't we come with you, my lord?"
"I just gave you a big task. Don't disappoint me in it."
He then left them and entered the underground world.
