Chu Cheng also knew that his money was not for nothing. In addition to sending troops to fight, his identity was also a factor. In the future, it was the rebellion of the nobles within the Maggie Duke, which led to the demise of the Maggie Duke.

The reason why the Holy Empire bribed the nobles of the Principality of Maggie was for this reason.

Although Chucheng wants to be cannon fodder, the Holy Empire does nothing. The Stuka family will take the legend of the empire and fight over the city one by one. Before attacking, they will first use a series of legendary magic, and then it will be Chucheng's turn to attack.

The Korasu Empire was still talking to Miya. The Miya Empire's fleet escorted, and with a large amount of supplies, they began to build the city of Lucian in a crazily manner.

Rafael had a lot of complaints about Chucheng's behavior, after all, the Temple of Dawn is still inclined to the Korasu Empire.

Chu Cheng directly destroyed an army of the Korasu Empire and was inclined toward Miya. But Chu Cheng's words gave him no room for refutation, so Miya gave him money.

Speaking of which, Colin, who was in charge of contacting him in the Miya Empire, was really rich and powerful.

I promised the seventh-level scroll and immediately let the teleportation array come over.

Chu Cheng couldn't find any fault, so he could only help the other party with all his strength and take Lucian down.

Chu Cheng didn't care much about Rafael, so let him stay in Thorn Corps. Thorn Corps is now building a mercenary group and building a structure. But now it is still insufficient. At the beginning, Wang Qinglong and his two adventure groups were all responsible for Thorn Crown. Thorn Crown is more important, and everyone is busy.

Only Chen Dian is a legend in the two adventure groups now, and the rest are third-level and fourth-level.

Therefore, the mercenary group could only rely on the plague creatures themselves. In the previous battle, the plague knight could also burst out with the combat power it deserved, allowing Chu Cheng to rest assured.

The problem now is that the Crown of Thorns cannot be opened.

Chu Cheng had to set up a laboratory in the Thorn Leadership to create a small optical brain, and produce embryos of plague creatures by himself. He had all the drawings, but he was not a plague warlock. The specific data had to be transmitted from the Ashes Throne. If there were any adjustments, he had to rely on the Tiancao Cangyuan Cangyuan to transmit information.

The underground space was originally produced by the undead, but now Chucheng has to rebuild it to use the large space under the magic tower to create plague creatures.

If you always rely on the Crown of Thorns to provide embryos, the transportation cost alone will be very high.

That's right, Chu Cheng has recently begun to gain a foothold in the Continent of Gods. Rafael doesn't like his approach, but he still stays in the Thorns and does not cause trouble for him. In other words, in fact, it is not a problem with the Korasu Empire at all. His relationship with Little Nicholas has not broken down, and the relationship between the Miya Empire is better. The Miya Empire is now discussing the issue of hiring his army to fight.

It was reasonable for him to charge high fees for attacking Lucian, and the Miya Empire was willing to pay the price because of its identity.

However, being a mercenary does not have that high profit, but you don’t have to be cannon fodder. You just fight together and will not even be in the most dangerous areas. After all, the Miya Empire cannot trust mercenaries 100%.

The thorns have a small thorn, which means that the cultivation area is small, but the territory is extremely large.

As long as there is food, the number of the Plague Legion does not care how large it is, and it can be placed. Besides, the main soldiers of the Plague Legion are soldier ants, and the requirements for food are not that high. Chucheng can plant some potato grains in the mountainous areas, and some varieties cultivated by the Great Xia can completely feed the Plague Legion.

The seeds of some plants have good nutritional value, but they are difficult for humans to digest, so Daxia has been trying to improve them.

Now Chucheng does not need to invest in research. What kind of food crops can be improved? As long as there are potatoes and these crops that humans cannot eat, they can feed the plague legion.

The core team of a legion will not exceed three thousand, basically more than one thousand. These require meat to eat, have a longer lifespan and higher combat power. But this number of people is nothing, and Chucheng needs to feed soldiers and ants.

During this period, Chu Cheng finally realized the hard work of his subordinates.

There is no time to spare every day, and the affairs of the Thorn Mercenary Group occupied most of his energy, resulting in him being able to replace sleep with final meditation, but this is not a long-term event.

In the next three months, Chucheng's Thorn Mercenary Group, under the employment of the Stuka family, moved to more than 20 cities in the Principality of Maggie and fought all of them. Chubai also caught countless treasures, and was secretly brought back to the Thorn Corps by Chucheng, and then sent ships to the Thorn Crown.

The rare treasures are useless to Chucheng. All kinds of rare materials are valuable only if they are converted into practical weapons and equipment.

The town of Thorns began to become lively.

There are many people who want to hire mercenaries, and some private adventure groups will also hire them. However, the port of Thorn Territory is too small, and those who are willing to come here are usually big nobles who send people to inspect.

At this time, Rafal and Chu Cheng proposed to build a temple.

The Temple of Dawn wanted to open a parish on the side of the Thorn Leader and establish a public teleportation array. Although the Goddess of Dawn is not a powerful god, its faith is relatively widespread and there are temples in many places.

As long as there is a temple, you can teleport each other.

Rafael said that as long as the official of the Thorn Leadership is in use for free, just as long as you agree one day in advance.

Of course Chu Cheng refused to build a temple, what a joke?

Just let me use the teleportation array, what is the significance of this benefit?

It seems like I can't afford to cultivate a teleportation array. Well, it's really expensive. However, the teleportation array in the temple is closed as long as they want, and it's useless even if you snatch it.

Rafael didn't force it. He watched the Thorny Town expand and fill it up, from a town with a size of more than 1,000 people to a city with a population of tens of thousands. The goddess will sooner or later get it done. He is not in a hurry at all, because he is a knight, not a priest, and he is just responsible for helping to pass on a message.

Chu Cheng actually prefers the likes of the God of Justice, but the Temple of Justice does not mean to contact him.

The Temple of Justice never participates in wars, and the fighting between nobles is not involved in their safety, the Temple of Justice will sit and watch.

Chu Cheng had heard a saying that the God of Justice was a powerful god, but because he participated in the affairs of aristocratic people and frequently spent his divine power, he endured a terrible disaster. The god's position fell and directly lost most of his priesthood. I don't know whether this legend is true or false, but the God of Justice is very low-key anyway.

Although the Goddess of Dawn is low-key, the Temple of Dawn is essentially too strong.

Chu Cheng couldn't hold back, so he naturally didn't want the temple to develop in his territory.

The current thorn tribe is mainly divided into three parts.

Located near the sea, Hunhe divides the territory into north and south, and to the south is the town of Thorns, and the institutions of Thorns Territory are all set here. In the north of Hunhe are two magic towers, underground cultivation spaces, and around the two magic towers are large-scale stone statues, which are carved locally.

Further north, near the mountainous area, there is a simple fortress, mainly stationed by the Plague Legion.

The third part is the village led by Thorns and the western castle. On the other side of the village, the number of people in the thorns is several thousand people who can support themselves. Chucheng collects high taxes every year, but in the end it will be used to return to its own village. The things grown in the village are all required by Chucheng, and have achieved high yields and the villagers' lives are OK.

On the other side of the Western Castle, there were troops stationed by the Plague Legion, and in fact the troops attacking the Principality of Maggie all set out from here.

There is no way to break the territory of Chucheng. Fortunately, the core is now placed on the crown of Thorns.

The Thorn Corps became his mercenary institution, and Chucheng was expanding its port. Anyway, there were still large areas in the south of the port that had not been developed. If you could not get into a large ship, you could take a small boat. Many small nobles who came to do business did not have giant ships of more than 100 meters at all. The best ship on hand may be less than 40 meters.

Some of them simply don’t even have a boat, so they can only take other people’s merchant ships, and that kind of business is even smaller.

What was more depressing to leave the city was that he found that even if he was a smaller business, it would make money than being a mercenary. The cost of soldier ants was definitely not expensive, but when it was running, it would still cause consumption. He usually sleeps in the fortress and starts spending money when he goes out. By the way, although the fortress is simple, it must be strengthened continuously, otherwise it will be thrown in that day and burned all the fire and the money will be gone.

Now the castle by the sea has almost become a decoration. No one who attacks the Thorn Territory may care about this castle, but only the fortress in the north.

There is a forbidden area there, and no one is allowed to approach it. It is said that there are 100,000 alchemy mercenaries outside.

In the current Thorn Town, the largest building is the headquarters of the Thorn Mercenary Group. In the hall, there are huge glass cabinets displaying all the mercenary models.

Then there is the magic query desk, which can query detailed data of various models and employment prices.

If you only hire a very small number of alchemy mercenaries, you can place an order in the magic query table. If you need a large number, there will be a workbench in the hall and a contract will be signed on the spot.

For larger-scale employment, we have to go to the VIP room to discuss in detail.

On the left side of the hall, there are projects for selling weapons and equipment, and on the right side of the hall, loan funding is provided. However, the loan part requires collateral, and the interest is more than half lower than most places in Gaia.

The personnel in charge of the reception were all the soldiers who came from Chu Cheng.

These people were also inexplicably convinced and agreed to come to the Continent of Gods to take risks, but ended up becoming receptionists. Well, the lord doesn’t have many suitable candidates. It would be better to use them than to use the indigenous people of the Continent of Gods.
