Chapter 110: Wyvern Attack

Su Lun’s Hero Template came with the Spearman unit type, which was the most common unit type. It had short training time and low cost, but it could still become very strong after several upgrades.

Another point was that even though Spearmen were not particularly impressive, they were actually the prerequisite unit for several special unit types. For example, special units like the Trap Camp and the Great Halberdiers required Spearmen to advance.

There were also many other special unit types in the System. For example, the advanced special unit for Mounted Archers was the White Horse Righteous Followers, the advanced unit for Heavy Cavalry was the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, the mountain unit was the Unstoppable Flying Army, the advanced special units for Crossbowmen were the Repeating Crossbowmen and the Vanguard Death Soldiers, and the advanced special unit for Archers was the Eagle Hunter. There were also some powerful unit types that the System did not introduce.

The special unit types Su Lun could choose from now were only the Trap Camp and the Great Halberdiers. Between these two, Su Lun preferred the Trap Camp. The System’s evaluation of this unit was very simple: ‘Every attack they make, nothing remains unbroken.’ Moreover, this unit used heavy infantry equipment.

To advance to this special unit type, he first had to upgrade the Spearmen to the top level, becoming Divine Spear Guards, and only then would he have the chance to advance to the Trap Camp. The progression for the Spearman unit type started with Recruit, then Spearman, Elite Spearman, Heavy Armor Spearman, and finally Divine Spear Guard.

Only Divine Spear Guards were qualified to advance to become the Trap Camp. In terms of strength, Heavy Armor Spearmen were Knight-tier, Divine Spear Guards were Knight Commanders, and the Trap Camp’s minimum was Knight Captain. This level was already not weaker than those Barbarian Great Axe Berserkers. Moreover, compared to the reckless Barbarians, the Trap Camp could be said to be highly disciplined.

If the two sides actually faced off, the ones who would lose would definitely be the Barbarian Great Axe Berserkers. With the Barbarians’ poor discipline encountering the well-coordinated Trap Camp, it wouldn’t be strange if they were completely dominated.

Su Lun had now started to form Spearman and Archer units, but the numbers in these two teams were not large. Both the Spearmen and Archers were recruited from the refugees who had come to the territory during this period. The two teams combined only had forty people. Moreover, these refugees were in relatively poor physical condition, as many of them, being refugees, often did not have enough to eat.

For the first month or two in the Military Camp, the main focus was actually on rebuilding their bodies. The training intensity was only average. Only after their bodies recovered would the next step of training begin.

Su Lun’s territory could be said to have initially stabilized. As long as they were unlucky enough to encounter a siege by a large tribe, there basically wouldn’t be any major problems. So during this period, he also began to explore the surrounding Wilderness. Since the north was the Lotas Mountains, where a group of Frost Wyverns lived, he avoided that area and explored towards the east and south.

To the northeast of the territory, there was a Centaur Tribes. Because Owen’s Caravan went there from time to time to trade with the Centaurs, and even though Owen was very cautious each time, Su Lun still knew the general direction of that tribe. So he planned to open a trade route to trade with the Centaurs.

The goods Owen traded with the Centaur tribe were food and weapons, exchanged for Centaur Longbows and horses. When Owen once again led his Caravan to the Centaur tribe for trade, Su Lun also sent people to form a Caravan to follow along. However, the goods they carried were different from Owen’s; Su Lun prepared alcohol.

In the Northern Wilderness, winters were very cold, so alcohol was very popular. However, due to grain production issues, alcohol production was not high, and it was rarely sold to the Northern Wilderness, since alcohol was not a necessity.

Under Su Lun’s semi-coercive request, Owen had no choice but to agree to take Su Lun’s Caravan along to the Centaur tribe.

…

The construction in the territory was in full swing. The slaves and Refugees were all working hard. No one noticed that a black dot appeared in the distant sky.

The black dot quickly grew larger. In just a few breaths, the black dot turned into a massive creature with a wingspan of over twenty meters.

This monster was gray-white all over, with a pair of bat-like fleshy wings, only magnified hundreds of times compared to a bat. The ends of the wings had a pair of sharp front claws. Its head had a sharp beak filled with sharp teeth, and its feet were even more terrifying and menacing. It looked very similar to the pterodactyls from the dinosaur age, but compared to pterodactyls, this creature was much stronger.

Frost Wyvern.

A type of frost Lesser Dragon. These wyverns had actually flown to Su Lun’s territory. The territory was busy working, and no one had spotted the Frost Wyvern. But as the Frost Wyvern got closer, an aura belonging to an apex predator emerged.

“Dragon! It’s a dragon!” At that moment, a Refugee happened to look up and was completely stunned.

“What dragon? Hurry up and work, or your Points will be halved today,” the overseer nearby said impatiently.

“It’s a dragon, a great Dragon, run!” The Refugee who had reacted threw down his tools and ran away.

Seeing that Refugee drop his tools and run, the overseer shouted angrily, “Come back! You come back here! You lose your Points for today, and I’ll also…”

At that moment, the surrounding Refugees instantly erupted in panic.

“Dragon, it’s a dragon, run!”

“Run quickly!”

“The evil dragon is here!”

A powerful wind pressure swept over their heads, and many people were directly thrown off balance by this gust. The powerful Frost Wyvern merely circled once above the crowd, and the wind it stirred up knocked many Refugees to the ground. All around, the desperate screams of monsters and humans could be heard!

The Frost Wyvern came and went quickly. After just one circle, it flew away, leaving behind only these terrified, trembling humans and those monster slaves.

The huge dark shadow flew into the sky. Clutched tightly in the Frost Wyvern’s menacing claws were two human corpses.

“Ding, warning, warning, the host’s Territory has been attacked by a powerful creature!”

While Su Lun was handling affairs, the System suddenly alerted him. Immediately after, a wave of panicked noise came from the town. Su Lun’s face changed, and he immediately opened the balcony window and went out to look. He saw a huge dark shadow fly over the town and then head towards the northern sky.

“Frost Wyvern!” After seeing that huge shadow, Su Lun recognized it at a glance as an adult Frost Wyvern.

What happened? Why would a Frost Wyvern come here to hunt? Su Lun’s expression turned serious. Without wasting time pondering the Frost Wyvern issue, Su Lun immediately went downstairs to calm the people.

Although the Frost Wyvern’s attack just now only caused two human deaths, the impact of a Dragon was simply too great. If not handled properly, Su Lun’s Territory could very likely see a mass exodus of people. Besides calming these people, the Goblins, Kobolds, and Gnolls in the territory were also in chaos now.

As important labor forces in the territory, Su Lun did not want them to take the opportunity to escape.
