Chapter 1,210 Sandbox, Hundred-fold Expansion and Massive Resources

PreviousBack to directoryNext
As expected, sandbox-like items actually have similar functions.

It's just that there are big differences in the scope, level and authority it can cover.

[Huge reproduction of the endless continent's terrain and urban distribution areas (special)] As a sand table based on the entire continent, its level is obviously much higher than the territorial sand table.

Even when Zong Shen got it, it was still missing parts.

If you want to fully utilize its function, you must find a way to collect missing parts such as: [Sandbox Gyroscope (Special)], [Sandbox Space Core (Special)] and [Sandbox Live Reality Plug-in (Special)].

to activate more functions of the sandbox.

The [Territory Construction Sandbox (Yao Guang Level 7)] does not have so many twists and turns.

Of course, the level is not that high.

Its functions are very intuitive and simple, and it specializes in territory construction.

It is equivalent to giving him a pure territorial sandbox.

The sandbox can be used to quickly layout the entire territory.

As we all know, for buildings in the territory, the lord or the hero-level talent with construction authority must first arrive at the site where the building needs to be placed.

After the building shadow is placed, the required resources will be deducted, and finally it will be hammered by farmers.

But with the construction sandbox, the first few steps can be omitted.

From now on, you can intuitively grasp the construction status of the entire territory without leaving home.

The most important thing is that this sand table can greatly improve the efficiency of laying out building shadows and the subsequent convenient adjustment of various building positions.

Originally, it was quite troublesome to relocate the building location.

It's much more convenient now.

This is good news for a territory that is about to receive a massive population and expand residential buildings on a large scale!

As for the [Defense Simulation] function, it can only be regarded as an addition.

When necessary, it can be used to visually test the defense level and scale of the territory, but the results are for reference only.

Because there is definitely a gap between simulation and reality.

"good!"

Zong Shen nodded with satisfaction.

He would never have too much of such a valuable item.

Then, he moved his eyes to the next item.

This is a drawing with the [Special] quality level suffix.

And it’s a relatively rare space system!

Different from common architectural drawings, this kind of technical drawings often have additional improvement effects.

It is equivalent to the "black technology" of the lord system.

Without hesitating for too long, Zong Shen chose to check the relevant details of this technical drawing.

[Space technology drawings·100 times expansion (special)]

[Quality: Special]

[Number of uses: 120/120]

[Effect: The internal space of the building can be expanded a hundred times, while the external volume and floor area are not affected]

[Any building can be expanded, but there will be a certain waiting period for expansion depending on the size of the expansion space]

[The larger the final expanded space, the longer the waiting period]

[While waiting for expansion, the building will temporarily lose all functions]

(Using space folding technology, the internal space of the building can be expanded a hundred times

You can make a seemingly ordinary straw shed actually have an interior space comparable to a square

It can also be used on buildings such as training grounds, magic halls, etc.

In addition to expanding the space, the corresponding training positions will also be increased proportionally)



"Space expansion technology? Great stuff!"

Zong Shen's eyes lit up and he took out the technical drawing directly with his backhand.

There's nothing much to say about its appearance, it's just the drawing style produced by Lord System.

But its practical value is beyond doubt.

Many buildings in the territory can be used.

So he reached out and took a shot and chose to master this technical drawing.

The entire drawing instantly turned into a ball of light and disappeared into his body.

At the same time, there is also an additional privilege [Hundred-fold Space Expansion] in the lord construction list.

However, this technology is limited and can only expand up to 120 buildings.

Priority must be given to buildings with the greatest expansion benefits.

For example, the training ground, knowledge school, magic hall and other learning and growth buildings with limited locations mentioned in the remarks.

After a hundredfold expansion, the number of citizens these buildings can accommodate will also be further increased.

As for places like Lord's Fortress, this is not really needed.

You must know that the area and number of floors of the City Lord's Mansion will increase with continuous promotion.

The space inside is not small. If it were expanded a hundred times, it would be simply outrageous.

Every morning I wake up from a 4,000-square-meter bedroom.

Then he mounted a horse and trekked for several minutes to the stairs.

In the end it took half an hour to walk to the restaurant for dinner…

Don't laugh, if the lord's fortress is expanded a hundred times, such a situation may really happen.

Unless he can use flash to travel the whole time.

Therefore, which buildings are suitable for expansion and which buildings are not suitable for expansion is also a science in itself.

This matter can be considered later.

After mastering this technical drawing, Zong Shen looked at the next reward item.

That is [Million-Level Basic Resource Box (Glory Level 4)].

Because this reward belongs to both platinum banners.

So a total of 24 resource boxes are given.

Earlier, Zong Shen was still worried that after the territory's population surged, the basic resources required for infrastructure construction would not be able to keep up.

Get these basic resource boxes now.

It feels a bit like providing help in times of need.

He looked at the resource box, and golden subtitles suddenly appeared.

[Million-level basic resource box (dazzling light level 4)]

[Quality: Shining Level 4]

[Contains millions of basic resource boxes]

[After opening it, you can get: wood x1000000, stone x1000000, hemp x1000000, iron x500000]

(Massive resources at your fingertips)



It is indeed a high-end resource box.

It's refreshing to be given resources.

The total number was more than Zong Shen expected.

You can get one million copies of each of the three basic resources of wood, stone, and hemp.

Adding in 500,000 copies of iron, a total of 3.5 million copies of basic resources can be obtained.

Among them, iron resources are quite special, although they all belong to the category of "basic resources" in terms of classification.

But in fact, iron is more difficult to obtain and collect than wood, stone, and hemp.

This can be seen from the exchange ratio of resources.

Correspondingly, iron resources also account for a low proportion in the consumption of low-level buildings.

The real consumption is mainly wood and stone, followed by hemp and iron.

24 [Million-Level Basic Resource Boxes (Yaguang Level 4)] can produce a total of 84 million basic resources.

You must know that before this, Zong Shen's territory earned a large amount of resources by selling minerals and promoting trade.

But even at the peak of the four basic resource reserves in the territory, there were only a few million copies each, and the total did not exceed 20 million.

Even so, resources of that magnitude are still massive.

And now, with the replenishment of these 24 [Million-Level Basic Resource Boxes (Yauguang Level 4)], the gap in building resources will be greatly alleviated.

The importance of basic resources is unquestionable.

These base materials seem to be very easy to obtain, but in fact when the territory develops to a certain size.

The speed of acquiring basic resources will become a shackle that limits development progress.

If the means of obtaining resources cannot keep up with the progress of territory development, it will easily fall into stagnation.

This involves a series of relatively basic issues.

You must know that the ways to obtain resources are nothing more than collection, trade and plunder.

The threshold for collection is the lowest, but the benefits are also the lowest.

Trade requires the lord to have sufficient circulating commodities and capital as the cornerstone of everything.

Only by meeting the above conditions can it be possible to obtain sufficient development resources in a long-term and stable manner through trade. Long-term stability is a key word, and currently there are not many lords who can achieve this.

Many lords choose to sell items and convert them into various resources only after they have items that need to be sold.

For example, the number of business lords who can stably earn profits through [market] sales in the long term is extremely limited.

Most of them are surrounded by unique resources.

In addition to minerals, crops, seasonings, furs, and products that have undergone secondary deep processing can all become stable commodities for sale.

As for looting, this method is equally simple, crude and has no threshold.

However, the risks and costs of plunder are also the highest.

If you can defeat the target of the robbery, it will be a blessing, but if it overturns, it will be in vain.

If you want to rely entirely on plunder to ensure development, you must have strong strength as support.

But in fact, looking at these three methods, the most suitable method for lords to obtain resources is precisely the most risky plunder.

Regarding this point, the Lord System has actually already pointed out the direction.

The development trajectories of most lords also truly confirm this point of view.

the reason is simple.

Because the lord's soldiers and subjects are controlled through the loyalty system.

And the lords themselves have a variety of privileges for rapid development.

If you want to feed a large number of unemployed warriors in a short period of time, the best way is not to farm but to plunder.

Farming requires a lot of time and energy to cultivate.

It belongs to water grinding kungfu.

For the lord, it can only be carried out simultaneously as a subsidiary development project.

Instead of pursuing self-sufficiency in farming, this will obviously slow down the normal development speed of the lord.

To rely on farming to support the territory in a short period of time and keep up with the normal rate of development and expansion cannot be said to be completely impossible, but only very difficult.

The benefits from early farming are extremely limited.

This will affect the number of soldiers and farmers in the territory.

The same is true for collection.

This situation is equivalent to indirectly limiting the development speed of the territory.

Therefore, to sum up, the most efficient way to obtain resources is to plunder.

You can find this out by referring to the nomadic peoples in ancient times.

Barbaric conquest and plunder are often the most effective ways of expansion in the early and mid-term.

The most suitable targets for plunder for lords are the indigenous people.

In fact, all this has been planned for a long time.

Therefore, the internal conflicts of the indigenous kingdom have been suppressed for nearly a thousand years.

Using an extremely deformed form, it has accumulated a large amount of resources, wealth and population.

In fact, this is exactly what the lords did.

The launch of the regional [legion] is more like providing a fixed platform for lords to cooperate.

This is a behavior that encourages lords to form a team and form a group.

And it was long before the appearance of the [Legion] function, and not long after its arrival.

Some lords have already begun to spontaneously form teams to explore the ruins.

Zong Shen still remembers those "little fools" who were exploring the northern mountain ruins and plotting against each other on the regional channel. Two of them were even banned for trolling each other on the [channel].

This is the role of [Legion]. The unique team formation system can effectively avoid calculations against each other.

Later, when the strength of the lords improved, many bold and daring guys joined forces to plunder aboriginal villages.

Now, some lords have even begun to try to attack the city.

This is also a necessary stage in the development of a lord.

Otherwise, what should be done to support so many unemployed people?

You can't expand a part of the population with limited resources for every acre of land you cultivate.

The pattern of large cultivated land can never be established in a short time.

The cultivation of crops and before and after harvesting also take a lot of time.

Even with the blessing of various natural magic, buildings and special effects, the normal agricultural and animal husbandry output efficiency is still far from keeping up with the average development rate of the lords.

At least that's the case in the early and mid-term.

Only when the size reaches a certain scale and the development speed falls into a stagnant state, is it suitable for serious and vigorous development of farming, just like the current giant aboriginal city.

Of course, for a guy like Zong Shen who is prepared for a rainy day, allocating some resources and talents to simultaneously support farming can be regarded as laying a foundation for the future.

In short, the development of the lords is essentially the acquisition or plunder of resources.

There may be many ways to obtain it, but the result and purpose are definitely the same.

The whole process is roughly: obtain resources-convert resources-enhance strength.

By analogy, a development cycle of steady expansion is formed.

Therefore, this batch of basic resources came very timely for Zong Shen.

We are just stuck at an important juncture for the next step of development.

"Comfortable!"

Zong Shen was very satisfied with this reward.

It was simply a reward that touched his heart.

He plans to wait until he returns to his territory to open these resource boxes.

At that time, it can be processed and controlled in a unified manner.

Then, he looked at the next two reward items.

Both of these rewards are recruitment-based.

They are:

[Advanced Technical Talent Squadron Recruitment Volume (Yauguang Level 3)]

[High-level Warrior Squadron Recruitment Volume (Yauguang Level 3)]

There are four copies of each recruitment roll.

Each copy can directly recruit a squadron.

Compared to the single recruitment coupons that are issued from treasure chests.

The banners and recruitment roll rewards given when the challenge is resolved are much more impressive.

There are often "aggressive" recruitment rolls or recruiting props for recruiting squadrons or even brigades.

This is also a manifestation of the item rewards increasing with the development progress of the lord.
