Chapter 108: The Rotation
Jacoub approached with evident excitement. "My Lord, with regular material income, construction timelines become much more manageable."
Ethan nodded, his mind already calculating tactical arrangements.
Time to establish proper operations.
He turned toward his subjects, studying the mixed group of archers and warriors. Thirteen capable fighters with varying specializations—enough for comprehensive coverage if deployed efficiently.
"Listen carefully," his voice carried across the desert wind. "You’ll divide into three teams for continuous operations."
The subjects straightened, recognizing the shift from casual coordination to military structure.
"Two teams will rotate at this spawn point. Handle the three scorpions that emerge every hour—your ranks match theirs perfectly." Ethan gestured toward the burrow entrance. "When your rotation ends, transport all bodies back to territory. Nothing gets wasted."
Renewable resources demand proper harvesting.
Jack stepped forward. "Rotation duration, my Lord?"
"Four-hour shifts. Fresh teams prevent fatigue-induced mistakes." Ethan’s gaze swept across eager faces. "The cores from your kills? Keep them for the first day. Increase your power levels."
Several warriors exchanged pleased glances. Personal advancement opportunities motivated troops more effectively than simple orders.
