Chapter 282: Chapter 173: Calabash Brothers Save Grandpa, String by String_3With their combined strength, they wouldn’t easily let anyone plunder the fruits of their labor. Hearing Zhou Bai’s words, Ding Qiurou thought about the hundreds of thousands of stone materials stored in her warehouse, and remembered Zhou Zhengping, who spent most of his days training and rarely returned home. Her heart felt somewhat relieved. Indeed! The territory wasn’t unprepared, to be slaughtered at will. "Let’s go and have some food, and after that, we can go shopping," Zhou Bai continued when he saw that Ding Qiurou understood. "Aren’t you going to the training camp tonight?" "I’ve just achieved a breakthrough and got promoted, so I’m giving myself some time to relax. It’s important to have a balance between work and rest!" replied Zhou Bai. "I’m really curious about those magical shops in our territory; everyone was talking about them on the way back!" "I’ve heard there are a lot of magical pieces of furniture," Ding Qiurou’s attention was immediately captivated. "We should also go on a shopping spree, perfect timing since we’re moving to a new house soon," said Zhou Bai. Previously, they lived in a small wooden house, which was sufficient, but who wouldn’t like a bigger house? This time, she had reserved for herself a Level 3 Residence in a good location, just waiting to move in after the decoration. Now, with all these magical pieces of furniture, they could be fully utilized, making life more convenient. "I heard that all magical furniture comes with enchantments?" Ding Qiurou said with a hint of surprise in her eyes as she listened to Zhou Bai. "That’s right, for instance, a cabinet that keeps your clothes tidy and clean, a broom that regularly cleans for you, and also voice-controlled magical lamps..." Zhou Bai had experienced all of these in Bengela Town. At that time, she couldn’t help but feel that compared to Bengela Town, Hope Village was just a backwater village. Little did she expect that in not much time, Hope Village would also have these things. Indeed, the territory needed to venture out early. "Hurry up!" Ding Qiurou urged; as a housewife, what she wanted the most was liberation from household chores. From Blue Star to this more "primitive" world, she hadn’t even considered these comforts, but now that they were available, of course, she would want to stock up on them quickly. Before it was technology that changed life. Now it’s magic transforming life. Unconsciously, magic was reintegrated into Hope Village in a whole new way, tightening the bond between the residents from Blue Star and this magical world. The next day marked the 53rd day since the advent of the Doomsday Game. Early in the morning, Charlot led her team out of Hope Village. After walking a certain distance, Charlot couldn’t resist looking back. "I wonder what it will be like next time I come here," Charlot murmured audibly. Will it continue to lie dormant among all the territories? Or will it soar to new heights? "Baron, have you forgotten anything?" Haus asked nearby. Charlot gave Haus a glance and simply said, "Let’s go!" Soon, the entire team continued their journey, moving further away across the territory’s vast lands. Before they had even left the range of Hope Village’s territory, the noise from up ahead reached their ears. Sensing the size of the group, the Horse Beasts they were riding became restless. Charlot and her entourage had no choice but to halt. Quickly, the true face of the noisy group ahead of them became apparent. Leading the group was the Glasgow Village Lord, Viscount Lancelot. Seeing Viscount Lancelot, Charlot was startled for a moment but swiftly dismounted and performed a Knight’s Greeting. Viscount Lancelot promptly returned the courtesy. Obviously, he recognized the identity of the Medal Award Team. "Baron, are you preparing to leave after the award ceremony?" Viscount Lancelot greeted Charlot, also using the opportunity to probe for news about Hope Village. "Yes, the Lord of Hope Village has also been granted the title of Viscount," replied Charlot. This implied that Viscount Lancelot, as a noble, could no longer act recklessly in Hope Village. Hearing the hint in Charlot’s words, Viscount Lancelot looked surprised; he could sense the Baron’s implicit protection towards Hope Village. Viscount Lancelot chuckled, "In that case, we can discuss the cooperation between our territories. I’ve heard many good things about Hope Village these past few days and I’m quite curious indeed!" He had encountered teams from two other territories on the road and learned that many were planning to join Hope Village. Barnes Village alone was bringing over a thousand people. Clearly, the expansion of Hope Village seemed unstoppable. He thought, Hope Village is probably going to offend Viscount Robin. As for himself? His main interest was in cooperation; he had no intention of getting involved in the grievances between the two territories.

The affairs of the two territories were none of his concern. After exchanging pleasantries, the two teams passed each other by. Meanwhile, Charlot continued to lead his team forward, and not long after, they detected another team not far from the territory of Hope Village. "That team doesn’t seem to be with the Viscount’s group; Viscount Lancelot’s party has people from three territories. If they aren’t together, they could be harboring ill intentions towards Hope Village," Haus analyzed after sensing the commotion. "It’s none of our business!" Charlot declared, heading in another direction. The few territories near Hope Village, thinking of threatening its current state, were far from able! The hidden team only dared to show themselves after Charlot and his group disappeared completely from view. "Captain, they’ve entered the territory of Hope Village! Shall we follow immediately?" They were the team sent by the Lord of Barnes Village. After a fast-paced pursuit, they finally caught up with Locke and the others. With Locke’s group being large in number, they could only follow at a distance. "Yes, proceed!" Captain Hudson nodded. Their main purpose this time was to probe the bottom line of Hope Village; naturally, they needed to make an overt appearance. They were eager to see for themselves what charm Hope Village had that made Locke and his group come with their families in tow. At that moment, watching the nearly two thousand green dots suddenly appear within the territory from his vantage point, Zhou Bai realized that it was the returning merchant teams bringing people back. In that moment, he felt truly grateful for these merchant teams. They were like the Calabash Brothers coming to the rescue, one after another!
