Gongsun Lin came back to her senses and said, "Then help me get a Smithy. However, my forging time is quite slow, so you need to be prepared."
Zhao Fu nodded. He understood that it was not easy for a player to forge Gold grade equipment, so he prepared to help her find a Smithy.
"I forgot! What equipment do you want to forge? This Hardearth Rock is suitable for heavy weapons or shields, "Gongsun Lin said to Zhao Fu.
Zhao Fu paused and thought about it – heavy weapons and shields? None of his subordinates could use heavy weapons, so he decided to make a shield. The God-Refining Plan might have to fight with the godly spirit's doppelganger, and a Gold grade shield would be much safer.
After making up his mind, Zhao Fu told Gongsun Lin to forge a shield and went out to get her a Smithy. He also bought some supplementary materials for forging Gold grade equipment.
That was the end of forging Gold grade equipment.
Following this, Zhao Fu returned to the Qin Village and gave the A- grade Holy Ring's Light to Daisy. She was an Elven Priest and had very high Intelligence, but Zhao Fu wasn't sure if she could use Holy Light skills.
Zhao Fu and Old Logue were Demon Priests, so they definitely couldn't use Holy Light skills. Daisy had the highest Intelligence, so Zhao Fu decided to give it to her.
Zhao Fu called Daisy to the side and looked at this mature Elf. He handed the Holy Ring's Light to her to see if she could use it. Seeing the Holy Ring's Light fuse into her body, Zhao Fu let out a sigh of relief – it seemed that she could use it.
Seeing that she had successfully used it, Zhao Fu wanted to see just how powerful this skill was. Liu Mei, Wang Ergou, and the others were also quite curious. They went to a cliff made of granite and had Daisy use the Holy Ring's Light.
By now, Daisy was standing ten or so meters away from the cliff. She lightly breathed out and closed her eyes. A-grade magic skills were not as easy as casting fireballs, and they were much more difficult.
Daisy lightly closed her eyes and stood there, her body giving off a faint white light. Her aura had completely changed, and she looked somewhat holy and pure. Following this, she slowly raised her hand and pointed at the mountain wall.
A wisp of white light shot out from her index finger. It was very fast and silent. Like a white line, it reached the mountain wall in an instant. However, at this moment, something strange happened.
The wisp of white light split into two, then into three, then into four, and finally into seven different sized halos, one wrapped around the other, and crashed into the hard mountain wall.
Boom!
A massive explosion sounded out as the mountain cracked and dust flew into the air. Seven circles of different sizes appeared on the mountain wall. The largest circle on the outside was 10 meters wide, while the one on the inside was 1 meter wide. These seven circles all went more than 1 meter deep into the mountain wall. It could be seen that in front of this kind of power, ordinary equipment was like trash.
In actuality, Daisy had not been able to use the Holy Ring's Light's power because her cultivation was only at Stage 0-5. Moreover, it was her first time using it, so she had not fully grasped the skill yet. When her cultivation was higher and she fully grasped the skill, its destructive power would be hundreds of times greater.
However, Zhao Fu was quite satisfied with the power of the Holy Ring's Light. If his Hell Fireballs landed on the hard mountain wall, they would only be able to blast open a one meter wide crater.
After returning to Qin Village, Zhao Fu took care of some internal affairs. By now, the two exploration teams had already explored the surrounding 70 kilometers around Qin Village. They had conquered two Basic Villages and one Intermediate Village. Now, Zhao Fu had 27 Villages in his hands.
At that moment, a soldier came to report that they had discovered a bandit stronghold 74 kilometers east of Qin Village.
Hearing this, Zhao Fu nodded. Over the past few days, he had been dealing with business matters. Now that he had discovered an Advanced Village, Zhao Fu wanted to personally lead people to attack it.
By now, the area of 70 kilometers around Qin Village was already within his control. The bronze concentrate mine was 50 kilometers away from Qin Village, so it was not too dangerous. Zhao Fu summoned back 1,000 soldiers and took 3,000 soldiers to the bandit stronghold.
…
A day later, on a bright and sunny morning, Zhao Fu brought a group of people to the bandit stronghold.
From a high vantage point, Zhao Fu could see that there were around 5,000 people in the stronghold. The terrain was quite complex, and there was only one entrance, which was the entrance to the stronghold. The walls at the entrance were made of stone, and there were two doors made of solid wood. There were a few people patrolling above and below, and the defenses were quite tight. Adding on the terrain, it was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
However, Zhao Fu noticed that there was a strange stone platform within the stronghold that was eight meters tall. A stronghold definitely wouldn't be so bored as to build such a stone platform, so Zhao Fu was quite interested.
Now, it was time to discuss tactics. With the defenses of the stronghold and the only entrance, it would be impossible for Zhao Fu's people to sneak in, so poisoning the stronghold wouldn't work.
Moreover, they didn't know that the bandit stronghold had plundered a large amount of food, so not many people would go out to hunt. Only a few small teams would come out to get some meat, so they wouldn't be able to take them out one by one.
It seemed that Zhao Fu had to think of a way to lure out most of the bandits. After thinking about it, Zhao Fu decided to use all of his 350 Goblins to pretend to attack the stronghold. Of course, they wouldn't actually attack – in fact, they wouldn't even get close. After all, Advanced Villages already had Shieldbearers and Archers, and if hundreds of Goblins attacked, they would definitely suffer heavy casualties.
However, just as Zhao Fu was about to carry out his plan, a soldier came to report that they had captured a few suspicious people. Hearing this, Zhao Fu temporarily stopped his plan and decided to see who they had captured.
Following this, a few shabbily clothed youths were brought in. Zhao Fu looked at them and asked, "Who are you?"
Some of the youths looked quite scared and panicked, but there was one person who didn't seem panicked at all. He looked at Zhao Fu and asked, "Sir, are you planning to attack the bandit stronghold?"
Hearing this, Zhao Fu nodded.
Seeing Zhao Fu nod, the others looked quite delighted.
At that moment, the young man respectfully bowed to Zhao Fu and did his best to control his attitude. His eyes were filled with hatred as he said, "I am Xiao Jian, the son of the Hundred Flower Village's Village Chief. Our village was originally an Intermediate Village, and it wasn't too far away from here. However, three days ago, we were attacked by these despicable bandits, and a large number of our villagers were slaughtered. The women were either raped and killed, or taken to the stronghold to be used as sex toys. Sir, please take revenge for us."
After saying this, the young man and the others knelt on the ground and vigorously kowtowed, begging Zhao Fu for mercy!
Hearing the young man's words, Daisy and Liu Mei looked furious, and even Bai Qi's expression became cold.
