Chapter 46 Departure, Patrolling the Territory
"Heavy?"
"Can't you swing this knife?" Su He looked at Zombie Number One with a puzzled expression.
After such a long period of growth, Zombie Number One has already reached level five, and its health has increased significantly.
Moreover, in Minecraft, creatures can generally use items immediately upon acquisition, and apart from some weapons with special requirements in certain mods, there is almost no issue of items being too heavy to carry.
Zombie Number One nodded. Su He looked at its arm gripping the knife and could clearly see that it was exerting great effort, but it just couldn't swing the decapitator's giant blade.
"And you? How do you feel about this knife?"
Su He turned to look at the Drowned King, wanting to see what was going on with it holding that weapon.
Upon receiving the order, the Drowned King immediately wielded the Decapitator's Blade.
This oversized weapon was exceptionally easy to use in its hands, and its dexterity was even greater than when Su He wielded it.
After this comparison, Su He roughly understood why Zombie Number One couldn't wield the Decapitator's Blade.
The reason, surprisingly, was that the values were insufficient.
The Drowned King is not only a level seven monster, but its aptitude is also higher than that of Zombie Number One, and it also has a special talent.
Therefore, the Drowned King's attribute values are far higher than Zombie Number One's. The Drowned King can easily wield this decapitator's giant blade, while Zombie Number One cannot.
Since the Decapitator Blade has an attribute threshold, Su He had no choice but to take out another diamond greatsword and hand it to Zombie Number One to try it out.
Like the Decapitator Blade, the Diamond Greatsword is crafted using blueprints and a forging table.
Since the Decapitator's Blade has an attribute threshold, the Diamond Blade might also have one.
Although they are crafted using the same method, the Diamond Greatsword has much lower stat requirements and lower entry barriers than the Decapitator Greatsword.
Zombie Number One took the diamond giant blade, tried swinging it a few times, and found that he could use the weapon normally.
Su He nodded upon seeing this; this was a small interlude before he led the monster to find the village.
Although Zombie Number One couldn't use the strongest Decapitator Blade, it didn't hinder his plan to search the village.
However, the fact that these weapons currently have attribute requirements made him ponder.
Opening his own career panel, Su He could see a series of detailed information at a glance.
Name: Su He
[Class: Necromancer]
[Level: 9]
[Skills: Necromancer Control (Level 3), Necromancer Enhancement (Level 3), Obsidian Magic (Level 1)]
[Attributes: Strength 8 (increased damage), Agility 9 (increased speed and reaction time), Intelligence 10 (increased magic power)]
Experience: 150/500
"With my strength of seven points, I can clearly feel the weight of the Decapitator Blade."
"Judging from the way the Drowned King wields this weapon, its strength attribute seems to be slightly higher than mine."
It should be noted that Su He's level is now two levels higher than that of the Drowned Corpse King, and the Drowned Corpse King can still surpass him in strength. This monster with perfect aptitude is indeed not simple.
"Okay, as long as it works."
"You know why I called you here. Now, follow me and we'll tour our expanded territory."
"Find some newborn monster brethren and let them join our side."
"This is the main task for today."
"Yes."
Drowned King and Zombie Number One nodded in response, then summoned all their monster subordinates and followed Su He out of the base.
During the march, Zombie Number One would occasionally steal glances at the Decapitation Blade in the Drowned King's hand, then look down at the Diamond Blade he held, walking with his head down in the group, lost in thought.
The diamond greatsword that Su He gave to Zombie Number One was the very one that had been enchanted with top-tier attributes last night.
Zombie Number One could also sense that although this weapon was not as powerful as the Decapitator's Blade that he could not lift, it was not much different.
Therefore, Zombie Number One felt no resentment whatsoever; what it truly cared about was the difference in strength between itself and the Drowned King.
It knew very well that its master's strength was increasing faster and faster, while it, as the monster that had followed Su He the earliest, had long been unable to keep up with the level progress.
Although it was still stronger than most monsters, Zombie No. 1 knew that in the future, more and more high-quality monsters like the Drowned King would gather around its master.
Zombie Number One didn't care that its status by its master's side had declined as a result; it was only worried that the things it could do to serve its master and share the burden were becoming increasingly limited.
Su He, walking in the middle of the group, was unaware of Zombie Number One's unusual behavior. At that moment, he was secretly pondering the future development plan of the base.
This naturally includes the level-up plan for all the monsters.
Su He had been watching the monsters level up at a rapid pace.
The best way to make them stronger quickly is to kill undead creatures in the outside world, or kill infected monsters in newly built monster spawn areas, which will also increase the monsters' level.
While the simplest way to obtain high-level monsters is to wait for them to spawn naturally in the wild, high-level monsters are not everywhere, and monsters with high aptitude are even more rare and hard to come by.
High-potential monsters like Drowned King, Zombie No. 1, and Little Green are the core backbone of Su He's monster army.
Its value is incomparable to that of ordinary monsters.
With the iron beacon completed and upgraded, Su He gradually began to focus more on external planning.
His most direct plan regarding the outside world was:
As long as they do not encounter the same upheaval as Eris, who brings in external creatures, during their own development.
Once the base infrastructure is fully completed and the entire monster army is equipped with excellent gear, they will proactively gather their forces and launch a counterattack on Eris's territory.
On the one hand, it can quickly improve the strength of the monsters under its command, and on the other hand, it can also have a proper "reciprocal exchange" with this "dear" neighbor.
Su He looked up at the area ahead that he had never set foot in before.
Unbeknownst to him, he and his monster squad had already found the main mission location of their trip.
In front of them, on a flat open space, there were scattered wooden cabins.
The cabin is surrounded by farmland and livestock pens, and the infamous "white zombies" patrol and guard the area.
A group of creatures dressed in brown, with large noses and resembling witches, walked back and forth on the neatly prepared dirt path.
These creatures are the villagers that Su He has been longing for these past two days.
