Chapter 13
Inside was roughly 350 copper coins and 40 bronze coins. There were also four items inside as well. Caepron pulled them out and took a look at them.
Item: Sliver Steel ( D-)
Description: A steel specially formed and named after the creature scales which shine like a sliver's scales.
Affects: Has a 30% chance of doubling the strength of attack of the bearer.
Item: Ghost talisman (Regular)
Description: Stick on a doorway and low-level ghosts and evil spirits will stay away.
Item: Ice Shot (Uncommon)
Description: Depending on the level of the user, creates an ice ball and shoot it at your enemies.
Item: Mana Stone (Common)
Description: Use this while cultivating to help grow or help boost breakthroughs.
Caepron was interested in all of these items. First, the Talisman, the fact that it exists means that eventually, he will need them, as this is a cultivation world, and everyone knows from those corny cultivation novels and webcomics that a talisman is a necessity. The next thing was the Ice Shot skill. It was a magic skill, and magic skills are hard to come by, so Caepron learned that on spot. Now he had a magic skill that could assist in fighting against larger creatures that were more resistant to physical attacks. After that, he put the rest of the items into his storage ring for later use, as they will all eventually be either used or sold. After that, the builders took the new wood and started to create more housing and a small area on the far side of the valley for what would be the first animal den for his nation, the horse den he got from the starter bags. He got it back out to look at it.
Item: Dark Night Horse Den (Rare)
Description: A den that spawns in horses with the bloodline of the Night Stallion, a noble and terrifying mount used by one of the highest beings ever to exist. These horses have a boost at night because of their bloodline, giving them the abilities Shadow Walk, and Nightmare Charge.
Caepron wanted to start working on his Cavalry forces early, or at least his mounted army soon, as they would allow him to move across the ground faster with his army, and give his army a greater advantage over his enemies. He had Gus researching the Taming skill so that they could have a greater chance of catching and taming different wild animals that could help them in the future. Caepron walked to the Village Hall and spawned in the next group of people. He got 77 in total, this time he only had one giant spawn in, so he and 9 others joined the troops, the rest of the people were divided among different groups. He then went with the builders, Old Lui, and some troops to a far corner of the valley. They were looking for the stone to build the walls at the valleys entrances and posts around the ridge of the valley to make a ring of protection. They found a huge deposit of Galestone deposit and set up a system for them to start mining it and moving it around the valley to get things started. The valley that they were in was massive. It was roughly 30 miles at its widest point, and roughly 85 miles long. It was a massive valley, and Caepron planned to turn the whole thing into a city, his city. He remembered that he hasn't yet named his village. He thought about it for a while as he walked towards the village heart room. "Why don't you name it after the first city that Adrollis had?" The sword on Caeprons back spoke up while listening to Caepron think about it out loud. Caepron stopped and looked over his shoulder at the sword. "You want me to name it Hoarde City?" "Yes, Adrollis, while a great ruler, was very protective of his possessions and didn't let anyone in his private city unless he wanted them their." Caepron contemplated it. While he wasn't the greatest at picking names, Horde actually didn't sound that bad. It was a word that pretty much explained his subconscious and what he wanted to do. He was very overprotective and didn't want people touching his stuff. He walked into the room and looked at the Village Heart.

Caepron noticed the total for soldiers and residents changed since he now had troops and people under him.The level of the village also changed and he wasn't quite sure how. "Hey, little boy, your troops have killed things, so the village got Exp. You should have gotten a notification of it. Did you turn notifications off?" "What do you mean?" Caeprons face showed how much confusion he was in. "Open your stats, bottom left right corner, there are several buttons, hit the bell icon." Caepron was confused but he followed the swords instructions and went to the icon. It gave him three options.
Level Ups [Mute] [Unmute]
Kills [Mute] [Unmute]
Special Notifications [Mute] [Unmute]
Caepron chooses to keep level up and special notification unmuted and kills muted, as there would be a lot of them over time. He then went to the village name and put in Hoarde as the village name.
