Chapter 830: Chapter 830: Hoarding of Undead Potions

Next, just as Zhao Guang had anticipated, although there were many in the army with a fighting spirit, it was not as exaggerated as before. After analyzing the data, less than one-third truly wished to become Thunder Warriors.

Zhao Guang did not insist, as this would be a substantial workload for him.

Besides, the modification materials need to be purchased in large quantities.

This is not only an issue of whether funds are sufficient, there’s also the problem that not many materials are available. Even ordering from major magic organizations would take some time.

Moreover, many materials must be bought using Magic Crystal Stones; ordinary gold coins or aluminum currency will not suffice.

These require time, and Zhao Guang could only schedule a timeline for them.

As for more people, they did not want to take this path. They naturally valued their own lives more. These individuals would gradually be weeded out, becoming local militia or security personnel.

Essentially, Zhao Guang would not keep anyone whose innate talent was insufficient.

And those with enough talent would become a special army, and Zhao Guang would not demand that their strength advance quickly.

It’s not that Zhao Guang is unsentimental, but those without enough talent lack strength and potential is not high. Some cannot even meet the standards for training Combat Energy, nor do they wish to become Thunder Warriors.

Zhao Guang didn’t mind, as there are plenty of people in the world willing to take risks.

The method to upgrade Thunder Warriors is controlled by him, allowing for absolute command.

Those who are not trusted could first be given just a layer of magic pattern. Even if they rebel, the threat posed by just one layer isn’t great. Furthermore, others wouldn’t learn this so easily, as the magic pattern has counterfeit prevention.

At this moment, Zhao Guang was trying to teach Sephidya so he wouldn’t be so busy.

Sephidya’s Magic Power is enormous; although not seemingly better at this than Zhao Guang, she could at least help alleviate some of the pressure. Comparing the two, Zhao Guang felt he didn’t seem normal.

Forget it, Zhao Guang thought, he should continue to perfect this method first.

After all, in Zhao Guang’s view, the explosive power of Thunder Warriors is very strong, potentially allowing for a new type of Flying Cavalry.

Additionally, the Holy Flame Army under his command purely cultivates Combat Energy.

However, Zhao Guang always wanted to imitate the method of Holy Knights, though nothing has come of it yet. Previously obtaining the Holy Light High Priest’s Magic Book, which recorded many things, perhaps this could be explored.

But he couldn’t complete it in a short time.

One day, Xi Fei approached him and said: “Master, I want to expand the production scale of Undead Potions.”

“The production of Undead Potions? Is it used so much? I remember recently not having many battles with Undead Mages.” Zhao Guang certainly didn’t remember wrong; the scale was already large.

Xi Fei sighed helplessly: “There’s no way, the demand for Undead Potions is enormous now.”

“What’s the situation? Explain.” Zhao Guang frowned. Could someone be targeting him? But it didn’t seem like it, since the production cost of Undead Potions isn’t high, it wouldn’t be aimed at him using such methods.

Xi Fei didn’t hold back and directly stated: “There are three main reasons, firstly still due to the previous Undead Rat swarms; now within Duke Horace’s domain and neighboring domains, the Undead Plague continues to erupt frequently.”

“Is this deliberately caused by someone?” Zhao Guang’s mind flashed with conspiracy theories.

“No, it’s because their sanitation level isn’t close to ours, so there are more rats that couldn’t be completely eliminated.” Zhao Guang understood now, having assumed prematurely.

The environment in his country on Earth was good, and even better in his domain.

Even so, rats were not completely eliminated, remaining numerous as expected; thus elsewhere would be even worse naturally. With rats spreading the plague, how could such mutations be entirely eradicated?

“Thus, potion consumption is quite high there, and what about other places?”

Zhao Guang shook his head; potions have a low production cost, but that’s relative to affluent individuals.

Even with Zhao Guang lowering the price somewhat, it remains inaccessible to ordinary people.

If local Lords aren’t kind-hearted, they might directly dispose of the sick, leaving them out of luck. Yet that wouldn’t ensure only ordinary people contract the plague.

Fail to eradicate it cleanly, leaving reliance on such potions indefinitely.

“And in our northern front, people are stockpiling Undead Potions.”

Zhao Guang showed confusion; how was there still a connection with them?

Xi Fei didn’t beat around the bush and explained directly: “Because the Legendary Mage Deli has gained a foothold near us, there are now two Legendary Undead Mages in the Plague Swamp.”

“Influenced by them, the strength of Undead Mages is constantly increasing, and increasingly arrogant, especially due to proximity, leading to more conflicts.”

Indeed, this was preparation for confrontation; his potions had become strategic goods.

“And in the South, you also know the Klein Empire accepted a batch of Undead Mages, but they aren’t subordinates. Quite a few secretly spread plagues, no longer a secret.”

“Thus, Klein Empire is also stockpiling potions, preparing defenses against Undead Mages.”

Zhao Guang immediately thought of the reasons, and Xi Fei nodded.

“Not just defenses; their behavior looks as if they’re planning to wipe out the Undead Mages completely one day.”

Initially desiring to use them against the Beastmen, recognizing their rapid development made them uncontrollable.

Should they continue unchecked, it may pose a greater threat than Beastmen.

Yet even if they were to take them down, they must minimize losses, hence Undead Potions are essential.

For this purpose, even if they had been displeased before, they brazenly came to purchase.

“Because recently everyone is stockpiling, causing the price of Undead Potions to constantly rise. Reportedly, in the black market, prices have risen to five times our factory price.”

Zhao Guang contemplated briefly, then said: “In that case, apart from selling to the North and Duke Horace’s domain, we’ll reconsider raising potion prices elsewhere, not let them take advantage without cost.”
