Zhao Hai's eyes flashed as he said, "This can be tested. Right, Grandpa Green, do you think that the undead can also do this?"
When Green heard Zhao Hai, his eyes lit up even more. He nodded and said, "Young Master, let's go to Iron Mountain Fort immediately. There are still some magic beasts there. Let's see if it works."
Zhao Hai nodded. His mind moved as he followed Green and Meg to the farm. Then through the transmission point, they entered Iron Mountain Fort's living room.
Merine wasn't in the living room. Right now, only she, Blockhead, and Rockhead were in charge. She was also very busy. There were a lot of things to do in Iron Mountain Fort. In addition to planting alfalfa, they also needed to plant oil fruits. In any case, they had already prepared to plant oil fruits. Now was the time to take advantage of this opportunity to plant oil fruits.
The alfalfa on Iron Mountain was almost finished. Zhao Hai didn't plan to harvest these alfalfa. They would naturally grow on the mountain and then die of old age. Then they would turn the ground over and turn it into fertilizer. Then they would plant another batch of alfalfa and turn it over. After several times, the soil on the mountain would naturally improve. Although they could harvest the alfalfa and leave the roots behind, it wouldn't be as effective as leaving the whole plant behind. Zhao Hai also didn't lack fodder, so he simply decided not to harvest these alfalfa.
The oil fruit trees on the mountain were very rare. The seeds of these oil fruit trees were modified by the Space. Therefore, they didn't have too many shortcomings. Otherwise, the oil fruit trees would be vulnerable to insect infestation.
However, there was another reason why Green wasn't worried about the oil fruit trees being infested. This was because Zhao Hai's Space had insecticides. Green was already aware of this point. This was because the Space was able to use Alien's poison to improve the insecticides. Now, the insecticides could poison people to death.
At the same time, the men were still repairing the castle as well as doing some other things. It must be said that the castle didn't look like much before, but once they were done, they discovered that there were a lot of places that needed to be repaired.
Fortunately, there were a lot of undead helping them. If there were things that humans couldn't lift, then the undead could do it.
In order to deal with this situation, Zhao Hai deliberately left 100 humanoid undead creatures in the castle and 200 humanoid undead creatures in the Bluestone Manor.
In the castle, besides Ann and the other slaves, there were only 100 human-shaped undead and dozens of beast-shaped undead. The remaining 400 beast-shaped undead were wandering around the castle, afraid that someone would sneak in.
When Zhao Hai left the living room, he immediately sent a message to the undead and had them gather outside the castle to wait for him.
The three hurriedly rushed out of the castle. On the way, they found Ann and the others repairing a part of the castle wall. When Ann and the others saw Zhao Hai and the others, they immediately gave them a hand. The three nodded and quickly walked outside the castle.
When the three arrived outside the castle, a group of undead could be seen in the distance. It was the 400 patrolling undead outside the castle.
These undead quickly arrived in front of Zhao Hai and stood there looking at Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai didn't waste time, he waved his Ghost Staff and said, "Square Formation."
The undead immediately arranged themselves into a square formation. They were very neat and tidy. Zhao Hai couldn't help but nod, then he waved his hand and said, "Move!" The square formation began to move slowly, but it didn't get messed up. It was neat and tidy, as if it was cut with a knife.
Following Zhao Hai's command, their speed became faster and faster. However, the formation still didn't change. It was still in a square formation, no one was fast, no one was slow.
Zhao Hai, Green, and the others looked at all of this with excitement. For them, this was an unexpected gain. The undead could really line up and move forward. Moreover, the formation wasn't messed up at all. This was very important for them. If they used these undead as a foundation to form a cavalry, then what kind of fighting strength would this cavalry have? Just thinking about it made them excited.
Zhao Hai had the undead change their formation several times. Sure enough, it was just as he thought. Once this formation was used, without his command, the undead wouldn't be able to change their formation.
After understanding this, Zhao Hai dismissed the undead. Then he followed Green and the others back to the castle's living room. At this time, the castle's living room had been rearranged. It was quite simple, but it was still very good.
After arriving at the living room, Zhao Hai and Green sat down. Meg took the initiative to cook tea for the two. Green looked at Zhao Hai and excitedly said, "Young Master, it seems like this function is very useful. As long as we have this function, our Buda Clan's cavalry will be the best cavalry in the world. With this function, we can maximize our cavalry's ability."
Zhao Hai also nodded. Although he hadn't led an army before, nor had he been on the battlefield, he was still a military fanatic. When he was on Earth, he often participated in online battles. He was very clear about what a formidable cavalry represented in the era of cold weapons. It was absolute power, absolute strength.
If the Buda Clan had an incomparably formidable cavalry, then no one in the world would dare to easily move against them. Moreover, they would become a powerful warlord.
Although the strongest warriors in the world were 9th rank Great Warriors, one must know that 9th rank Great Warriors wouldn't easily make a move. They were like nuclear weapons on Earth. Most of the time, they would only act as a deterrent. Unless it was a matter of life and death for the clan, they generally wouldn't make a move. Most of the time, they would comprehend the Heavenly Dao, hoping that they could break through the 9th rank and advance to the next rank. The 10th rank was the road to godhood.
Everyone believed that as long as they could break through the 9th rank, they could reach the 10th rank. People also believed that the 10th rank was the realm of God. As long as they could reach the 10th rank, they could become Gods.
It was precisely because of this reason that almost all 9th rank experts worked hard to comprehend the Heavenly Dao, hoping that one day they could break through the 10th rank and become a God, obtaining immortal life and invincible strength.
Because of this, 9th rank experts couldn't be seen in the continent. 8th rank experts were considered the pinnacle of the continent. And the strength of a clan depended on how much fighting strength they had, as well as how many soldiers they had.
On the continent, nobles were allowed to have their own private army, especially in their own fief. As long as they paid the taxes of the Empire and didn't start a rebellion, the King would usually turn a blind eye to this kind of thing. This was because no matter what, those great nobles had existed for too long. Sometimes, even if the King wanted to control them, he was powerless to do so. If he really pushed them too far, who knows what kind of trouble they would cause.
Most importantly, those Great Nobles would generally have a 9th rank expert to keep watch. Even if a 9th rank expert didn't make a move, their deterrence would still be there. Nobody would dare to underestimate a 9th rank expert.
The reason why the Buda Clan was destroyed in the past was because their foundation was too weak. Although they had their own fiefs, because they had been operating for too short a time, the taxes they collected were only enough to pay the taxes of the Empire. They didn't have any money to raise an army. Although they had Green and Merine, both 8th rank experts, 8th rank experts didn't have the same deterrence as 9th rank experts. This was the reason why the Buda Clan was destroyed.
If the Buda Clan had the most formidable cavalry in the continent, then nobody would dare to do anything to them. Even the Emperor of the Aksu Empire wouldn't easily make a move against them.
Green's face was full of excitement as he said, "But undead creatures aren't suitable for riding. If Drunk can catch some high level magic beasts in the Carrion Swamp, then the Young Master can use the Space to breed them. Then we'll have a large number of mounts. With this, we can form a cavalry."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Alright, but what we lack now isn't just magic beasts, we also lack people. Even if we have magic beasts, we don't have soldiers."
Green's face sank as he said, "Right, we still have people. Unfortunately, we don't have people right now. And a cavalry isn't easy to train. It seems like this matter needs to be considered in the long run."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, we can take it slow. As long as we have time, as long as we reach a deal with Laura, we'll have a lot of gold coins to support us. Then we can have more people and form a cavalry."
Green nodded and said, "It seems like this is the only way. As long as we have money, we can buy more slaves. We can even buy some battle slaves. With that, our cavalry can be formed very quickly."
Zhao Hai nodded. He knew what Green meant by battle slaves. Many of these slaves were defeated soldiers or warriors who had committed crimes and were demoted to slaves. These people were very skilled, some were even Level Five Warriors.
However, the price of these slaves was also very high. In the past, an ordinary slave only cost about ten gold coins, but now it only cost about five. As for a Battle Slave, it used to cost at least one thousand gold coins. Now, it would cost at least two thousand gold coins. Some of the more expensive ones could even go as high as ten thousand gold coins. Moreover, there was no market for them even if one had the money.
For ordinary slaves, the slave masters would only use rice to send them off. Now, they would even use moldy rice to send them off. But for battle slaves, it was different. Battle slaves were generally treated very well, some of them even lived better than commoners. This was the difference between a battle slave and an ordinary slave.
It can be said that even if the Buda Clan spent all of their money, they wouldn't be able to buy any battle slaves, not to mention forming a cavalry unit. Because of this, they needed money, a lot of gold coins.
Those Great Nobles, which one of them wasn't rich enough to rival a country? Their status was counted in hundreds of millions. In the eyes of those Great Nobles, people like Zhao Hai were no different from beggars.
