Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1766: Chapter 562: Fan Yang’s Envy, River Valley Is Building a City (Part 2)

“Brother Yang, look, Grandpa Village Chief and the others are coming out of the main building!”

While pondering, Fan Yang suddenly heard someone pointing towards the main building.

He quickly turned his head and realized that his grandfather Fan Kong and his father Fan Hong, along with more than a dozen Cold Resistance Level villagers, were walking out of the main building, all wearing expressions of excitement, clearly due to some joyful occasion.

“Grandpa, Dad, all Uncles, did you meet the Great Xia Landgrave?”

Fan Yang immediately rushed over, greeted everyone, and impatiently started to inquire.

He was most curious about the Great Xia Landgrave.

To lead such a powerful army, defeat Cai Qiu’s 200,000 troops, and nearly slaughter Cai Qiu’s Little Landgrave, just how terrifying must the strength of the Great Xia Landgrave be?

Since stepping out of the house at dark, he had wanted to enter the main building, but alas, it was so well-guarded by those Golden Armored Soldiers that even approaching would attract scoldings; naturally, he dared not go.

In his thinking, since Grandpa and the others came out from the main building, they surely had met that esteemed Lord, and driven by curiosity, he asked.

However, upon his inquiry, Fan Kong, Fan Hong, and the dozen Cold Resistance level villagers’ expressions instantly turned awkward.

“Cough, Yang’er, what do you take Grandpa for? Meeting the Landgrave, what a joke! Grandpa couldn’t even enter the foyer of the main building; meeting Vice Commander Yuan is already a stroke of good fortune!”

Fan Yang was stunned upon hearing this and then realized that there was actually a young officer in armor following behind Grandpa and the others.

Seeing the Mystic Armor on that officer, Fan Yang’s face immediately showed envy, then he slightly raised his head to see the officer’s appearance, instantly stunned.

“This general looks about my age…”

The officer’s appearance was so young, seeming at most under twenty, with much healthier skin, standing together with Grandpa Fan Kong and the others, most might believe he was just sixteen or seventeen.

The armor on the officer, overall mystic black, had several hacked parts revealing silver light—Fan Yang has been in contact with silver, knowing those sections were made of pure silver, and seeing the dense forging patterns, there must be tens of thousands.

The source of the armor’s mystic glow seemed to be the largest chest plate; it shone bright black, exuding an extremely terrifying Cold Beast aura, clearly not ordinary.

“Fan Elder is too kind, the Lord is discussing strategies with the various esteemed individuals on how to deal with the Guangning Mountain army, naturally sparing no time for meeting you; regarding River Valley Village’s settlement, Lord Qiu has already provided solutions, you just need to follow them, Great Xia’s craftsmen will arrive soon, simply notify other villages in Green Jade Valley in advance and have them prepare, Lord Qiu also mentioned, should you have further matters, you can come directly to me, small things I can decide, bigger ones I will consult for you, without incident, do not come near the main building!”

The young officer was Vice Commander of the Dragon Forbidden Captain, Yuan Bai.

Yuan Bai intentionally kept his tone courteous, yet his prowess far surpassed Fan Kong and others; coupled with the Jiao Long Scale crafted chest plate, occasionally emitting horrifying aura, his words were still imbued with authority that made their bodies tense.

“Thank you, Lord, I shall make arrangements, without incident, we shall not approach the main building, should the Lord require my services, just send someone to notify!”

Fan Kong, being over seventy, steadied himself, quickly responding to Yuan Bai.

Yuan Bai nodded, glanced at Fan Yang and others, continuing, “I shall return now; additionally, the Lord dislikes noise, move all people from around the main building.”

“I comply!”

Fan Kong immediately clasps his hands to accept the order, subsequently with others watching Yuan Bai walk towards the main building. After Yuan Bai entered the building, Fan Kong turned to look at his son and the rest, a wrinkled face full of excitement.

“We’ve struck it rich, truly struck it rich this time, River Valley will become a city, River Valley will become a city, hahaha…”

Fan Kong burst into joyous laughter, his son Fan Hong, along with the other dozens of Cold Resistance levels, also displayed extreme excitement.

Following last night’s battle, akin to Qingtan Village, the happiness from victory did not last long, Fan Kong soon began to worry about River Valley Village’s settlement.

Great Xia only defeated Cai Qiu’s army at the valley entrance; the subsequent fight with the two fiefdoms surely continues—as Qinghua City’s 70,000 troops now stationed near River Valley Village in the Guangning Mountain area.

During the day, the Xia Army brought all Cai Qiu war prisoners to River Valley Village; with tens of thousands of Xia Army arriving in succession, Fan Kong realized that Xia Army plans to use River Valley Village as the forefront against Cai Qiu’s forces.

In other words, the two fiefdoms might engage at River Valley Village next.

River Valley Village has over 20,000 people, originally 26 Cold Resistance levels, but 9 died in last night’s battle, now only 17 remain, with the rest primarily in the Logging Realm, only about 2000 in the Earth Digging Realm.

With such limited strength, should the village become a battlefield for the two fiefdoms’ clash, the fate of these people can only be imagined.

Therefore, during the day at the valley entrance, Fan Kong sought every means to pursue meeting Great Xia’s top officials, seeking a future path for River Valley Village.
