Chapter 1115: Chapter 666: New Tomb City, Spiritual Vortex, Coinage Workshop_2

However, as for the aerial forces, Fang Zhou is now keeping up in a timely manner, continuously producing cursed blood bats and blood spirit giant bats.

Additionally, Fang Zhou is confining over two hundred Silver Tier demons in another dungeon.

There are various kinds of these demons, but when it comes to extracting spiritual resources, their race is not an issue.

In the previous two battles, capturing these demons alive was far more costly than killing a Silver Tier demon.

However, efforts always yield rewards, even if many blood spirit warriors died to capture them alive.

But now the battle is won, and the Silver Tier demons’ corpses on the battlefield will gradually be made into blood spirit warriors in the days to come, an estimated number of several thousand.

......

While Fang Zhou was happily inspecting his captives in the dungeon, a blood spirit giant bat collecting skeletons outside suddenly rushed back.

This blood spirit giant bat flew into the city and, without even taking a rest, began to scream with its mouth wide open: "A soul vortex!!"

"A soul vortex has appeared!!"

The blood spirit giant bat’s shrill voice spread throughout the entire stronghold, causing all the busy undead to involuntarily pause.

Almost all the undead felt particularly excited, especially those Nether Lock Corpse Puppets, who swiftly rushed out from their various posts.

Even Draven, the recovering Hate Samurai, quickly dashed out from his room.

He grabbed the blood spirit giant bat by the neck and loudly inquired, "Where is the soul vortex!!?"

The blood spirit giant bat excitedly pointed in a direction and provided the specific location.

It’s no wonder this blood spirit giant bat was so excited.

Discovering a soul vortex is a significant event for the undead; the Lord certainly earns the most, but the undead below can also reap some benefits.

Fang Zhou rushed out from the dungeon, and below it, he had already learned of this occurrence.

Draven hurriedly descended beside Fang Zhou, his voice filled with excitement, "My Lord, order the Nether Lock Corpse Puppets to dispatch!"

Fang Zhou, naturally, would not miss this opportunity to make money, he waved his hand broadly: "All Nether Lock Corpse Puppets, depart immediately!"

The Nether Lock Corpse Puppets howled with excitement; capturing spiritual bodies means the Lord can earn big, and they can also receive bonuses.

These Nether Lock Corpse Puppets quickly followed the blood spirit giant bat towards the location of the emerging soul vortex.

This piece of the Endless Blood River is not far from Fang Zhou’s territory, which is a good thing.

Generally, the appearance time of a soul vortex doesn’t exceed three days; in most cases, it ends within one to two days.

And a spiritual body emerging from the vortex staying in the Endless Blood River for over half an hour would get polluted and lose the capacity for soul power extraction.

The Nether Lock Corpse Puppets rushed to the soul vortex’s location and quickly lowered their simple boats. They rowed on the Endless Blood River with long poles.

Their Nether Chains in their hands have now become suitable catching tools.

An evil spirit emerging from the vortex had no time to react before being spotted by a Nether Lock Corpse Puppet.

He mumbled excitedly, casting the barbed nether lock like a spear, piercing through the spiritual body.

Then retrieving the chain, he captured the spiritual body onto the boat.

These spiritual bodies aren’t restricted to human souls; they come from diverse sources, including various Mythical World creatures.

Goblins, kobolds, lizardmen, beastmen, barbarians, trolls, and so on are frequent guests.

These spiritual bodies cannot move in the Endless Blood River, but once on the boat, they gain the ability to act.

However, falling into the hands of the undead, especially the Nether Lock Corpse Puppets, means severe misfortune for these fragile souls.

The Nether Lock Corpse Puppets violently pulled the chains out of the spiritual bodies, then used metal chains to bind these spiritual bodies tightly.

Listening to the screams and furious curses of these spiritual bodies, the Nether Lock Corpse Puppets showed no discomfort, displaying expressions of enjoyment instead.

The wails of the soul, what a wonderful sound!

On the shore, Fang Zhou watched the busy Nether Lock Corpse Puppets, smiling at their laughter from capturing souls.

He looked at Draven, who was following beside him, and asked, "Draven, with your ample experience,

how many spiritual bodies do you think we can capture from this soul vortex?"

Draven looked at the vortex in the Endless Blood River, roughly estimating, said: "Judging by the vortex’s scale, it counts as a small vortex and should disappear in about a day.

These Nether Lock Corpse Puppets can probably capture fifty to sixty thousand spiritual bodies!"

Upon hearing this number, even Draven, who had not been in a good mood lately, felt refreshed and delighted.

Fifty to sixty thousand spiritual bodies, Fang Zhou knew the quantity.

But he was unaware of how much Blood Moon Coin these spiritual bodies could produce, so he asked, "How much soul power can be extracted from these spiritual bodies?"

Draven answered without hesitation, "These souls can at least yield soul power for producing a hundred thousand Blood Moon Coins."

Around a hundred thousand Blood Moon Coins, that’s a considerable profit.

Fang Zhou watched the busy Nether Lock Corpse Puppets in the Endless Blood River.

These Nether Lock Corpse Puppets were working very hard, but the current number of Nether Lock Corpse Puppets under Fang Zhou was still insufficient.

Some lucky spiritual bodies still managed to escape capture, drifting downstream in the Endless Blood River.

Seeing these escaped spiritual bodies, Fang Zhou frowned, feeling pained; it was as if Blood Moon Coins were slipping away.

So Fang Zhou addressed the Nether Lock Corpse Puppets on the shore: "Nether Lock Corpse Puppets, work diligently.

Once this vortex ends, I will promote the top ten Nether Lock Corpse Puppets with the most spiritual body captures!!"

Hearing this, the already busy Nether Lock Corpse Puppets became extremely eager to work.

Rest? There’s no such thing as rest!

Only working brings them joy!

Seeing that almost no spiritual bodies could escape, only then did Fang Zhou nod in satisfaction.

These undead indeed needed motivation; relentless exploitation alone wouldn’t elicit their maximum work efficiency.

Fang Zhou planned to research specific work systems to encourage these undead to compete.

Their previous lives were too leisurely; they must be encouraged to strive harder.

Without effort, how can the Ark Lord make money?

...

The opportunity to profit from the soul vortex ended a day and a half later.

The Nether Lock Corpse Puppets, fueled by work enthusiasm, ultimately captured over seventy thousand spiritual bodies for Fang Zhou.

The Nether Lock Corpse Puppets worked so diligently, Fang Zhou certainly was not stingy.

The day after finishing a busy period, he summoned all the undead, holding a promotion ceremony for the top ten Nether Lock Corpse Puppets in capturing spiritual bodies, elevating them from Nether Lock Corpse Puppets to Ghosts.

This action caused immense envy among all the undead in the stronghold.

Meanwhile, Fang Zhou started grouping the undead in the city and established assessment, performance, and reward-punishment systems.

This move either actively or passively pushed all the undead into competition, significantly increasing work efficiency and reducing their rest and soul nurturing time.

The Nether Lock Corpse Puppets brought back the captured spiritual bodies, now bound with metal chains, piled up in a corner of the city.

The torment of these spiritual bodies hadn’t officially started yet.

The reason was simple: the Soul Torment Chambers had been completely destroyed by the demons in previous battles.

So, in the following days, the undead concentrated on constructing the Soul Torment Chambers.

Fang Zhou strolled through the construction site, inspected the undead’s work, then asked Draven, "What do you think should be our priority in restoring the city’s facilities next?"

Draven slightly bowed and said, "My Lord, I believe we should repair the Coinage Workshop first."

Hearing Draven’s words, Fang Zhou muttered, "Minting..."

The Spirit Juice Crystal Candle is the key resource for manufacturing Blood Moon Coins, but it requires other equipment as well.

Currently, Fang Zhou has neither Spirit Juice Crystal Candle nor the necessary equipment.

He checked the space equipment Draven previously gave him and found none of these things.

Fang Zhou looked at the original Coinage Workshop in the city, now completely destroyed by demons, and feared the Spirit Juice Crystal Candle and minting equipment were likely lost as well.
