Lord: Start with the Pioneer Knight

Looking carefully at the six alien creatures, their eyes revealed respect. As expected, they must have been equipped with the magical equipment [Consciousness Distortion].

However, this army was originally led by Odor and managed by Cassius, so he didn't have to worry at all.

"How many of your men are those soldiers?" Weilin pointed at a dark elf and asked him.

"My lord, I manage 1,500 dark elf soldiers, 1,000 dwarf soldiers, 2,000 gnome soldiers, and 500 three-eyed monster soldiers." The dark elf officer stood up and reported respectfully.

Weilin nodded, turned around and pointed at the shadow snakeman officer, asking him to start reporting.

"My lord, I have 500 shadow snakemen, 500 dark elf soldiers, 1,000 gnome soldiers, 500 three-eyed monster soldiers, 500 eyeless soldiers, 500 gray dwarf soldiers, 500 cavemen soldiers, and 1,000 goblin soldiers in my hands."

The military structure of each race is very complete, which is almost the same as what he expected.

After the inspection of the military camp, Weilin directly transferred 500 dark elf soldiers from the dark elf officer as temporary guards and began to inspect the 31 numbered areas of the underground world.

Area No. 1 is the food production area of ​​the underground world. Thirty mushroom plantations covering an area of ​​100 square kilometers are planned to grow edible mushrooms, mainly by cave slaves and dwarf slaves.

In a completed plantation area, Weilin got off the carriage. With the help of the glowing plants around the underground world, he could clearly see the busy slaves. There were also three-eyed monsters as managers waving whips around to urge these slaves to work.

However, although the other party had a fierce expression, he could only scare the group of slaves at most, mainly intimidating them, and would not easily whip the slaves.

"Why is this?" Weilin was a little confused, pointing at the scene in front of him and asked Cassius.

Seeing this, Cassius explained, "My Lord, this is an order from Lord Odor to prevent these managers from abusing their power, causing too many slave deaths and injuries, and delaying the development of the underground world. Therefore, managers are strictly ordered to whip slaves at will. At the same time, each plantation has an assessment system, and plantation managers whose grain production does not meet the standards are all demoted to slaves."

"I see." Weilin agreed with this order. For the Dark Clan in the underground world, it is not possible to show favor to human slaves like the Praying Star Territory. Naturally, it is necessary to adapt to local conditions and issue corresponding regulations for management.

"How many slaves are there in Area No. 1." Weilin walked forward along the edge of the field and asked Cassius softly.

"There are about 30,000, who are responsible for the grain production tasks of eight areas and the gold mining area. At the same time, some high-quality mushrooms can be transported to the Praying Star Territory on the ground to earn some profits."

"Hahaha, mushroom soup will appear in my food in the future. It's a good start." Weilin couldn't help laughing.

Hilda and Sisina, the two head maids, were very confused. They didn't know why the master was so happy that such ordinary food appeared on the table.

Cassius was proud to hear this. He had been with Weilin for so many years, so he naturally heard the hidden meaning of his master's words.

The appearance of "mushroom soup" means that the resource production area of ​​the underground world is on the right track, and will continuously create income for Qixing Territory and his master.

After visiting a small part of the planting area, Weilin asked Cassius to take him to the nearest area with rich mineral resources - Area 04.

As the only three numbered areas with rich ore reserves in the underground world, Area 04 ranks first in reserves, containing rich iron ore, silver ore, copper ore and other small rare ores. It is the first batch of areas selected by Odor to develop the underground world.

Developing this numbered area means that there will be no shortage of mining tools in the gold mining area.

At noon the next day, Weilin came to an iron ore mine with a reserve of 3 million tons. The iron ore resource reserves ranked tenth in Area 04. As for why this place was mined, the reason was simple. It was easy to mine and there was a foundation for the development of the gray dwarves, so there was no need to start from scratch.

"The gray dwarf steward, Lanshi, greets Lord Cassius." A gray dwarf in coarse cloth knelt on the ground, kissed Cassius's military shoes, saluted respectfully, and spoke the common language fluently.

"This is your master." Cassius resisted the discomfort, took two steps back, and introduced him to the gray dwarf steward.

Seeing that the gray dwarf wanted to do it again, Weilin said coldly: "Okay, you don't have to do this kind of etiquette to me."

"Yes, master..."

"Just call me sir." Weilin waved his hand and said to the gray dwarf.

"Yes, sir."

The gray dwarf steward climbed up, with a flattering face, ignoring his race, a real lackey.

Following behind him, Weilin began to inspect the iron ore mine.

The entire mine covers an area of ​​15 square kilometers and is divided into 60 mines. There are 8,000 slaves mining here, of which 60% are gray dwarves and only 40% are other races.

All slaves, both men and women, are naked from the waist up. Only managers like Lanshi have relatively clean coarse cloth clothes.

However, Odor did not let these mining slaves despair. He conducted an assessment every month. The ten slaves who mined the most would become the new managers. Among the 60 mines, the manager of the mine with the lowest output would be relieved of his position as manager and demoted to a slave to mine. This was a balance.

So that along the way, this group of slaves were either mining or on the way to mining. In order to keep their positions, some mine managers personally delivered meals to the mines and encouraged these slaves to work hard to mine, so as not to be demoted to slaves because of unsatisfactory production.

In general, under Odore's decree, from slaves to managers, all were involuntarily, and had no intention of resisting at all.

It took a week for Weilin to inspect eight numbered areas. As for the remaining 23 numbered areas, since they have not been officially developed, they are now barren, and only monsters that have not been cleared live here.

Before returning, Weilin went to the gold mining area for inspection.

From the stone city to the gold mining area, it is 100 kilometers long, 8 meters high and 10 meters wide. There is a stone pillar for support every 10 meters. There is no doubt that this straight passage was made by Odore. Except for him, no one can make this passage so smooth.

The gold mining area was not very large, only ten square kilometers, and it accommodated 20,000 slaves mining at the same time. A vassal army was also stationed around it to prevent the slaves from rioting.
