With the weapons stored Jordan was left with 326 crystals, with that he went to the goblin world and quickly teleported to his assigned camp.
Jordan currently has five warrior goblins under him and so far and he is satisfied with them, they are strong with the body in the second rank and the lack of weapon mastery is compensated with theirs aggressivity and lack of fear for death.
Today he will buy five more of the goblin warriors to create a small squad, Jordan plans to have these goblins ride the second phase beasts creating sort of raiders with great mobility.
But that was only secondary, the main thing Jordan come here for were the goblin outcasts, Jordan came to ask the goblin mage who was in charge of the camp, he will ask him for any goblins that they cant train, those that have strong personalities or are just too aggressive, just like the lizardmen leader.
There was the problem that Jordan won´t be able to control them, but he wasn't to try anyway, instead, Jordan plans to have those goblins roam free, he will send them to the town to make as many problems as possible.
Right now the town is filled with groups of humans searching for food and the threat of beasts is smaller and smaller every day and that´s why Jordan needs to create a new enemy for humans.
If the beasts are suppressed and the humans unite they will for sure target Jordan´s camp, he wasn't naive enough to believe the angels would let him be.
And considering how the things went until no there is little chance for cooperation, there are only four options 1- angels will rule the city 2- demons will rule the city and 3 – everyone will die and beasts will roam the streets a last the least probable option 4- other power rises up or the humans unite and expel/kill both the angels and demons.
"I would like to buy five goblin warriors and besides this, I would like to ask, are there goblins that you are unable to train or do their job?"
"sure that will be 50 crystals and to answer your question yes, there are those that refuse to be assimilated so we just kill them and feed the mother goblins"
That was a bit more information than Jordan needed but he didn't even twitch, after all, he already ate human brains and heart so something like that didn't shake him at all.
"I will make you a deal, I will buy those goblins, I will pay you the prize of the meat they have on them and bit on the side, what do you say?"
The goblin mage looked dubiously at Jordan and with a bit of mocking voice said "sir, our methods are the best for training them, and even with the intimidation from your horns your chance of getting them to listen to you is close to none, they will backstab you on the first occasion"
Jordan did not like the goblins attitude, the goblin looked at him like he is a fool, Jordan´s smile twisted, his muscles tensed he was prepared to smash the goblins head in, still, he has to rein himself in as fighting here would mean instant death.
"I know, I do not plan to train them, I want to release them in town to make the humans busy"

The goblin mage wasn't brightest, but he noticed how Jordan changed and how he hatefully looked at him, the goblin changed his attitude and said.
"of course, why didn't I think of that, great idea! And with the goblins in wild, there is a bigger chance for them to mutate to rare variants! It would be our pleasure to provide the goblins to you sir"
J"great, how much for a goblin? And how many can you provide?"
"for the prize… hmm two goblins per crystal, but remember those goblins will be underfed, violent, and unresponsive as for how many… that depends on how many you need, we can contract other camps that can provide the goblins as well but we will need few hours to round up them"
"Great, then I will come tomorrow and for now, prepare for me goblins worth 80 crystals"
"sure sure, will you be taking the goblin warriors now?"
Jordan thought it over and decided to take them tomorrow as well, he doesn't want to pay a fee for storing them on the platform ´shit, should have planned it a bit better´
"I will take them tomorrow as well"
With this Jordan left the goblin world and returned on the platform, with the goblins he has to pay for Jordan has 196 crystals left and there is the auction tomorrow…
´and I thought that I am rich, I am still dirt poor´
Still, Jordan went to take care of the last point on his list and that was getting the blacksmith, until now the tools the humans found in shops and so on were enough but with the ever-increasing number of humans that will soon change as the tools will get broken or damaged... and that´s leaving out the need for weapons.
With all the cars there is more than enough iron to go around and with an engineering degree Jordan knows the basic of blast furnace so he can smelt it, the quality of the iron will be subpar but that will do for now, it´s better than buying it, the only thing Jordan needs is a blacksmith.
With this Jordan stepped through the portal to the world of Necrot, just as Jordan made it on the other side of the portal he noticed the difference at once, he could smell death in the air, the temperature here was cold and probably around 10 °C and the most important thing, the sun was black, instead of yellow there was the black sun.
It looked like an eclipse instead but even the rays around were gray giving everything a creepy feeling.
There was another fort just like in the goblin world but this one was perfectly clean with red carpets on the ground, Jordan went in and saw skeletons everywhere, those skeletons only had brooms and nothing more as they were sweeping the floor.
Just like in the goblin world Jordan was given a number of his camp and was teleported there but the similarities ended there, the goblin camp was dirty with horrendous smell everywhere but there was only the smell of decay and every part of the camp was sparkling clean.
Jordan saw a skeleton in luxurious robes that introduced himself "Hello, I am the Azkebar and I will be showing you around here"
The tour around the camp was much different from the goblin camp as well, here everything was sorted and Jordan saw rows upon rows of skeleton swinging as one to the beat of a drum he saw thousand of skeletons shooting arrows as robots while the only sound that could be heard were the arrows piercing the air, none of those skeletons ever made a sound while on the tour, Jordan saw a bit from every profession there is and the skeletons were mindlessly working on it, just like robots.
"… well those are all the lower skeletons and their main fault is that they have low thinking capacity, give them a different task and they will forget about what they learned, they learn complicated tasks very slowly so we must teach them for many years…"
Like that the tour continued and Jordan didn't like it one bit ´how is it possible the undead didn't rule the galaxy?´ in the end he even sensitively asked and the lich responded.
"HAHAHA, yes perhaps we could but our lives are bonded to the living as well, we feed on your life energy so if we kill all living beings then we will die as well and also… unlike the angel and demon faction we undead are relatively new faction under the demon army and we don't even have transcended being yet"
Jordan understood the strength of the transcended being must be enormous if they can keep in check even the undead.
In the end, Jordan bought an undead blacksmith for 80 crystals and returned to his camp.
