Chapter 136: Family’s Foundation (1)
Translator: 549690339
Zhao Hai made zombies to see the difference between zombies and skeletons. But what he didn’t expect was that after he made zombies, the realm turned all the undead creatures that came out of the realm into zombies. Moreover, they were zombies that combined the advantages of zombies and high-level skeletons.
The skin and flesh of these zombies were very strong, comparable to ordinary leather armor, and the bones inside were harder than steel. Besides their pale faces and inability to breathe, they looked no different from ordinary people, except that their eyes could not move.
The most important thing was that the toxins in these people’s bodies had increased again. In addition to the original toxins, the zombie poison had also been added. This zombie poison would only appear when one reached the level four poisonous zombie. However, this didn’t mean that there were no level one or two zombies. It was just that the zombie poison was hidden in the body of level one and two zombies, and the space only extracted the poison and strengthened it. At the same time, these undead creatures and some zombies had attack methods such as their fingernails growing longer and having infinite strength. Even Zhao Jia and the others were the same. One could imagine what would happen if the undead mages like Zhao Jia and the others appeared on the continent, wore magic robes, and released magic spells one after another. When the Warriors got close to them, they would beat them half to death with one punch.
There were very few people on the continent who practiced both magic and martial arts. It was not that they were not good. On the contrary, the power of both was very strong in the early stages. Below level five, people who practiced both could easily defeat their opponents. However, it was a different story after level five. After level five, if one wanted to reach a higher level, they would not only have to rely on hard work. After level five, whether it was magic or battle energy, every upgrade would be very difficult.
For people who practiced both magic and martial arts, after Level 5, the difficulty of each level would not be as simple as one plus one equals two. If they gave up on practicing both magic and martial arts at this time and only practiced one, it would not work either. Both magic and martial arts complemented each other. Once they started to practice both, they had to keep the levels of magic and martial arts the same. Otherwise, it would be easy for them to go berserk. Therefore, it was very difficult for people who practiced both magic and martial arts to achieve great achievements in the end. Generally, they would find it difficult to advance after reaching level six or seven.
Although a level 7 Magic warrior was already very powerful, there were only a few who could reach Level 7. Many famous geniuses on the continent thought that they could cultivate both magic and martial arts, but in the end, they all died at Level 5 and couldn’t advance to Level 6. Only a few of them reached Level 6, and even those who reached Level 6 might be stuck there for the rest of their lives, and only a few of them could reach Level 7.
There were very few people on the continent who practiced both magic and martial arts now. In the past, geniuses who practiced both could become level nine powerhouses if they only practiced one. However, because they practiced both, they could only become Level Seven or level six ordinary powerhouses.
After the realm upgraded the undead creatures a few times, Zhao Jia and the others were now as strong as level-seven masters. However, they mainly used magic attacks and were not very good at close combat. They had neither learned combat power nor martial arts, so they could only fight by instinct.
As for the undead creatures that were Warriors, they mainly used martial arts and didn’t know magic. However, their attacks weren’t much worse than those of mages like Zhao Jia.
The magic beasts that had come out of the rotten swamp were now covered in flesh and blood, and their combat power was no worse than the Warriors. These magic beasts had existed for a longer time than the Warriors, and the rotten swamp wasn’t a peaceful place. Except for the beast tide, the battle between undead creatures and magic beasts occurred almost all the time, so it didn’t matter whether it was undead creatures or magic beasts. Both of them had rich battle experience and were not weak.
Zhao Hai didn’t expect such a result, but he was very happy. He now had more than 1000 Lv 7 experts. What kind of concept was that? If they were to face the Versailles clan head-on, they wouldn’t be able to deal with them unless the Versailles clan sent their ninth-rank experts.
Once a person reached level 9, they could no longer be defeated by numbers. They were on two completely different levels. Almost all the major families on the continent had level 9 experts. Unfortunately, Zhao Hai’s enemies were those major families, so he could only tuck his tail between his legs and act like a coward.
After resting for a day in the subspace, Zhao Hai and Grimm had finally recovered to their peak condition. During the day, Merlin still went to the subspace to cook for Zhao Hai. Merlin had always been worried about Zhao Hai, and Zhao Hai was very touched by Merlin’s care. In his previous life, he had not enjoyed a mother’s love, but he had enjoyed it from Merlin.
Zhao Hai was very respectful towards Merlin and Clint. He treated them as his own grandparents. These two respectable old men had dedicated their lives to the Buda family. Even their own children had been dedicated to the Buda family. Zhao Hai had no way to not respect such people.
It had been five days since he left Kass city. Zhao Hai’s farm was still growing radishes and oilfruits. Now, he had a yield of nearly 300 mu of radishes and 22 seasons of oilfruits, which was an amazing amount. However, Zhao Hai planned to stop growing radishes after this season’s harvest. With a yield of 8000 Jin per mu of radishes, he had a yield of nearly 300 mu, which was enough for him to trade with Laura for a while.
At the farm, he had already harvested two thousand adult rabbits, and he would be able to harvest another big rabbit soon. That meant he had two thousand big rabbits now, and another one thousand would mature soon. There were even more baby rabbits. He had more than one hundred thousand baby rabbits now. Zhao Hai had underestimated the reproductive ability of rabbits in the interspace.
There was a reason why Zhao Hai did not want to plant more radishes. This time, he had come to the ika Plains to release the insects. The Duchy of Versailles was bound to experience a shortage of food. When that time came, there might be a famine. Zhao Hai was prepared to plant more corn in the future. He might be able to earn some money this way.
Although Zhao Hai wanted to use the insect disaster to deal with the Versailles family, he did not want to end up like a starving man. Most of the food in the Versailles Duchy was produced in the ika Plains. If the ika Plains were to go out of production, the pressure on the food supply in the Versailles Duchy would be huge.
Who suffered the most in the year of great disaster? It wasn’t the nobles or the wealthy, but the ordinary people. If the Duchy of Versailles really ran out of food, the ordinary people would have a problem with food. At that time, there might really be a tragic scene of people exchanging their children for food.
Zhao Hai hated the Versailles family for always finding trouble with him, but he didn’t want the commoners to suffer. If he really did that, he wouldn’t be able to sleep well in the future.
Furthermore, Zhao Hai thought that if he really used the corn to solve the Versailles family’s food crisis, he would be able to earn a lot of money. Most importantly, he could raise Laura’s status in the Versailles family.
If Zhao Hai wanted to use the corn to help them, he would have to sell the corn. Of course, he could not do it himself. He could only do it through Laura. Once Laura used the corn to help them, it was needless to say that she was the great benefactor of the Versailles family. Naturally, her status in their hearts would rise.
However, this was only Zhao Hai’s prediction. It was still hard to say if things would go smoothly. There were many other large trading companies in the Duchy of Versailles. These trading companies had the ability to transport large quantities of food to the Duchy of Versailles in a short time. These large trading companies had the ability to solve the food problem in the Duchy of Versailles.
The next night, Zhao Hai and Grimm walked out of the dimension. Clint brought Zhao Hai through the windbreak and into the ika Plains.
Zhao Hai was stunned when he entered the ika Plains. He was born in the north of China, which was also a plain. However, there were too many people in China at that time. One could see the end of the land with one glance, followed by the houses. It was far less shocking than what he saw in ika Plains.
It was too shocking. At a glance, the rolling green wheat waves were like the ocean. There was no end to it. You couldn’t see people, houses, or trees at all. There was only wheat fields. That scene could only be described as shocking.
It was also Grimm’s first time seeing such a scene. He took a long time to catch his breath and sighed, ” &Quot; it’s so beautiful and spectacular. I didn’t expect that farming could produce such a spectacular view. &Quot;
Zhao Hai also came back to his senses. His eyes were shining as he said, ” &Quot; this is nothing. In the future, we’ll turn the black soil wasteland into something like this. I believe it’ll be even more spectacular than this. &Quot;
Clint nodded his head. He was very clear that the land in the blackdirt wastelands was only bigger than this. If the land there was really improved, they might be able to see a more spectacular and shocking sight.
The sky had just turned dark, so they could still see things. Zhao Hai and green did not make a move, but carefully observed the situation in the field.
Ika Plains was not a place without people living. On the contrary, there were many villages where people lived. Most of these villages had some thatched houses, and the people living in them were all slaves. Only one or two houses looked good. It seemed that the people in charge were looking after the slaves.
There were many villages like this in the ika Plains. Each village had one or two stewards who managed tens to hundreds of slaves. They were distributed throughout the ika Plains and had served the Versailles family for generations.
However, Zhao Hai and green also noticed that the lives of these slaves were much better than those in other places. They ate white flour and their clothes were complete. They were also not divided into teams like the slaves in other places. Instead, they formed families. If not for the slave brand on their bodies, they would look more like poor civilians.
