YM778.TV Chapter 219: Miss Alex, thank you
Alex, just waking up, glanced at the system dashboard to check the time. Only eighteen hours remained until the leaderboard refreshed, meaning it would reappear at midnight tonight.
Alex chose an outfit from her wardrobe that matched this world\'s style, making her look more like a native and less like a Lord.
Downstairs, the siblings were already preparing breakfast. Xiao Hui was wearing a gray hoodie and casual pants, but her clothes were in a state that was hard to describe—likely damaged from yesterday\'s battle. The hoodie had turned into an off-shoulder design, revealing her black lace bra, which was quite inappropriate.
"Xiao Hui, go to my room and find something to wear. They\'re all new. I didn\'t notice yesterday that your clothes were in such a state..."
Hearing Alex\'s words, Xiao Hui felt a bit embarrassed. She didn\'t want to wear animal skins, so she had been making do.
"We\'re about the same size, so they should fit. As for you, Xiao Mu, you\'ll have to make do. I don\'t have any men\'s clothes."
Xiao Mu nodded, not minding. He was more concerned about his sister\'s modesty.
"Miss Alex, thank you!"
Xiao Hui happily went upstairs. She had noticed that Alex always wore different and beautiful clothes, indicating she had plenty.
"Fifth floor, second room on the left," Alex called out to the hurried Xiao Hui.
Xiao Mu continued eating breakfast while Alex went to summon the troops. The hobgoblin artisans brought back yesterday were now living with the Dark Alchemy Warlocks in the eastern part of the city, busy building houses.
Alex had authorized them to use any materials from the Warehouse. Once all the preparations were complete, they would first develop a prototype, and only after Alex\'s approval would they mass-produce it, ensuring no excessive material consumption.
For living needs, the Warehouse had tens of thousands of food portions, enough to last them centuries.
The Auxiliary Barrack summoned a hobgoblin, which Alex sent back to the hobgoblin kingdom to help stabilize the chaotic situation there. These summoned hobgoblins were perfect for maintaining order.
When Alex reached King level, the Auxiliary Barrack would summon Monarch-level hobgoblins, making them a race fully under her control.
For the races that had submitted, Alex adopted a laissez-faire approach. Those useful for her development were brought to Undead City, while the rest continued their lives as usual.
Her troops were undead, so she didn\'t need these races\' military forces, except for high-end combatants.
"Ahhh!! Holy fuck!!"
A scream from upstairs startled both Xiao Mu, who was eating breakfast, and Alex, who was outside the palace.
What happened?
Alex looked up and saw Xiao Hui peeking out the window. Their eyes met.
Xiao Hui looked delighted, while Alex was puzzled.
Xiao Hui\'s shoulders were bare, with black straps prominently visible, making it seem like she wasn\'t wearing anything, though most of her was hidden by the window.
"Miss Alex, there are so many beautiful clothes and dresses here! I love them!" Xiao Hui shouted excitedly.
Oh, it was because of the clothes. Understandable. For a girl who had worn the same outfit for a month, suddenly seeing countless clothes was indeed thrilling.
"The clothes I\'ve worn are in the bottom drawer. The ones on the hangers are all new. Take as many as you like, don\'t be shy."
Alex generously offered.
With over a thousand outfits, even wearing one a day would take more than three years to go through them all.
The two were similar in height and weight, so all the clothes would fit.
"Thanks a lot!"
Xiao Hui disappeared from the window, likely to try on more clothes.
Alex continued checking the Warehouse, using the resources gained yesterday to upgrade the city\'s level. The changes weren\'t drastic; the walls extended outward, and the city\'s territory expanded slightly.
Alex also upgraded the Barracks by one level. The undead crystal reached lv21, raising the summoned undead to lv9 Standard level, though no new troops were unlocked.
When the Barracks reached lv22, Alex could summon Commanding level undead directly.
After these upgrades, Alex decided not to continue. Upgrading the city consumed too many resources. Unless the hobgoblins and dwarves could keep up with production, the Warehouse would be emptied quickly.
She couldn\'t deplete all resources at once, needing to reserve some for the undead fortress.
With nothing valuable left in the Warehouse, Alex noted that the system didn\'t automatically clear resources after conquering a race, nor did it destroy the city. Lords had to collect resources themselves. Special buildings and strange materials that seemed unrelated to city construction were left behind.
After handling these matters, Alex returned to the palace just as Xiao Hui came downstairs in new clothes. Though she loved the dresses and high heels, she chose a hoodie and casual pants for their trip to the White Rock Mountains.
Xiao Hui carried a few other outfits, suitable for daily wear but not for battle.
She had a good figure and looks, easily rated at least S-rank. Unfortunately, Xiao Mu never saw his sister as a beauty.
"Miss Alex, how do I look now?"
Xiao Hui twirled in front of Alex, the clothes fitting perfectly.
"I think you look the same as usual. It\'d be better if you tied your hair up," Xiao Mu said before Alex could respond.
"Did I ask you?" Xiao Hui glared at Xiao Mu but still tied her hair up, knowing they were about to leave for the White Rock Mountains.
"You look great, very fitting. Feel free to take more clothes later, don\'t be shy," Alex said.
Though Alex offered, Xiao Hui politely took only two outfits, not wanting to seem greedy.
"Miss Alex, this is enough for now," Xiao Hui said, holding several outfits and feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Just take them," Xiao Mu insisted, pulling Xiao Hui away by the wrist.
"Leader, we\'re heading to the White Rock Mountains!" Xiao Mu waved to Alex and then walked away without looking back, while Xiao Hui looked at her brother with some annoyance.
"Xiao Mu, you know, you\'re really rude!"
