That night, Sister Bao'er indeed ignored Qin Feng.
Even the allure of the fun drones couldn't tempt her.
After helping Uncle Jiu bury the body, she went to play in the mud with Anbei.
Qin Feng was happy to have some peace and quiet to cultivate undisturbed.
To Qin Feng's surprise, Uncle Jiu had Anbei bring back the materials Suri had gathered.
According to him, Qin Feng would now be responsible for managing and distributing all future team harvests.
Of course, Uncle Jiu had left Suri her peach wood sword.
"Uncle Jiu still has some sense of propriety," Qin Feng grinned.
Before he could even ask, Uncle Jiu had voluntarily surrendered the materials.
"Sir," Jarvis reported, "three white treasure chests and two Corpse-Raising Grounds have been discovered."
After a full day of exploration and scanning, the more than twenty drones sent out had yielded substantial results.
"All drones have entered sleep mode. At sunrise tomorrow, they will deploy their solar charging membranes and begin charging."
As Jarvis finished his report, a 3D virtual map materialized in the holographic display within the studio.
The map centered on the Dragon Kingdom's Gate, surrounded by a vast desert.
Beyond the desert lay terrain dominated by mountains and hills.
Within the explored region, most areas were at least 40 kilometers from the national gate.
The drone that had ventured the farthest, the first one, had reached a distance of 67 kilometers to the east.
Qin Feng paused his cultivation, stood up, and stretched his limbs.
He noticed three red dots on the map, marking the locations of three white treasure chests.
In addition, there were 24 small green dots scattered along the edges of different maps.
The farther the drones explored, the wider the area each one was responsible for.
However, the drones that had continued to explore eastward hadn't yet found the location of Sakura Country's national gate, which disappointed Qin Feng.
"What's the situation with the monsters?" Qin Feng asked.
"Without exception, they're all E-grade Pig-Headed Man monsters. Two locations have three each, and one has four," Jarvis replied.
"Good," Qin Feng said. "Have Suri and the others go hunting again tomorrow."
"I hope we can find enough Red Crystal Stones from these three treasure chests—at least 70."
Qin Feng didn't hold much hope for this.
After all, Suri had been incredibly lucky to find 30 units of Red Crystal Stone from the lowest-grade white treasure chest she'd encountered today.
Still, with three treasure chests waiting for her tomorrow, there was still a sliver of hope.
Meanwhile, the hardworking Suri was currently at the burial ground, learning about feng shui from Uncle Jiu.
The primary task was to learn about Corpse-Raising Grounds.
After all, Suri needed more and more low-level minions to "top up" with real money, and the existing grounds were simply insufficient.
Uncle Jiu was in high spirits today, lecturing with great enthusiasm, citing classics and historical precedents, and giving Suri a deeper understanding of her homeland.
This was mainly because his apprentice had achieved a resounding victory on her first mission, not only helping Brother Qin find some useful materials but also recruiting three new minions!
Uncle Jiu was certain that in time, his zombie army would be invincible on the national battlefield!
The next morning, the fully charged drone took flight again.
Suri also received a new mission from Qin Feng.
Sister Bao'er didn't accompany them this time. After witnessing the three sisters' capabilities yesterday, they had gained the confidence to handle the mission independently.
The day's target was only two or three Pig-Headed Men, so Sister Bao'er was quite relieved.
Though she still felt a little resentful, she had to admit that her little brother was right.
"Master, I'm going!"
Suri, accompanied by the two sisters and Park Jeonghwan, bid farewell to her master.
Park Jeonghwan had spent a full day and night "topping up" with real money, and his strength had improved somewhat.
"Go ahead. With this Golden-Armored Corpse, the low-level monsters should be no problem."
Uncle Jiu was also packing his things.
He needed to take the remaining non-paying zombies to his new location.
Learning that Qin Feng had found two new Corpse-Raising Grounds, Uncle Jiu was greatly encouraged.
The third wave of the assault was imminent, and he still had over half his subordinates who hadn't paid.
These two new Corpse-Raising Grounds couldn't have come at a better time!
"Tsk tsk tsk, Great God Qin Feng is really going all-in on the path of the bloodsucking capitalist!"
"Poor Suri... Is she picking fights without any power poles on the national battlefield or something?"
"Don't talk about my husband like that! He was quietly following behind to protect us, you know."
"Heh, I bet Great God Qin Feng is fast asleep at home! The one trailing behind is just one of his alt accounts!"
As the netizens said, Qin Feng was indeed still in his workshop.
With no worthy opponents outside, he had to stay home to cultivate and study spiritual energy just to make a living.
The journey was silent. Suri and the other two, along with Park Jeonghwan, quickly reached the first monster den.
With Park Jeonghwan's help, they swiftly took down three Pig-Headed Men.
"We won! We won!"
Anbei and Gu Pu cheered, their faces alight with excitement. They had never imagined fighting monsters could be so easy.
Together, they killed one monster, breaking their previous record of zero kills.
Unfortunately, Suri's subordinate count only increased by two.
**Battlefield Notification**: Congratulations to Suri, Guardian of the Niel Kingdom, for obtaining a White Treasure Chest.
The guardians were stunned.
"Another one from the Niel Kingdom?"
"WTF, since becoming vassals of the Dragon Kingdom, have they become this savage?"
"They've already found a new treasure chest in less than a day!"
Not only the guardians were shocked, but even the Dragon Kingdom citizens found it a bit too excessive.
"Holy shit, their resource acquisition efficiency is insane!"
"With Great God Qin Feng's drone swarm, the workers can be exploited even more ruthlessly!"
"Just like my company's new computer—it boosted efficiency, but I don't even have time to use the restroom anymore. Damn capitalists!"
"Ugh, don't even get me started. Our factory's assembly line was upgraded, and production efficiency has skyrocketed."
"And it seems Jeonghwan Oppa has gotten even stronger! Huh? Why aren't the Kimchi Kingdom girls coming to visit their oppa? I need to take a screenshot and tell them this good news—their oppa is even more powerful now!"
After Su Li and the others were ready, they immediately rushed to the next location.
At the border gate, Qin Feng let out a disgusted sound. "As expected, no Red Crystal Stone!"
This time, in addition to steel and Mystic Iron Ore, the white treasure chest only yielded a Tang blade.
Qin Feng no longer paid attention to Su Li, as he hadn't held much hope for her anyway.
Just as he was about to enter cultivation mode, Jarvis reported:
"Sir, Drone 1 has discovered the Kimchi Kingdom's border gate!"
Qin Feng's eyes snapped open. "Didn't find those guys living it up, but I stumbled upon a loser first!"
On the holographic map, the only stationary green dot represented Drone 1, which had discovered the Kimchi Kingdom's border gate.
The footage from Drone 1 was now being projected in real-time onto the holographic display.
The massive characters "Kimchi Kingdom" made Qin Feng cringe.
"Tsk tsk tsk, treating kimchi as a national treasure? How desperate must they be? No wonder they resort to stealing from others."
With a snort, Qin Feng flew out of the border gate and headed straight for the Kimchi Kingdom's gate.
Today, he would destroy them!
