He just stood outside the hot spring cabin.
I heard the sound of rushing water coming from inside.
…
This made Zong Shen feel rather embarrassed.
Because he knew that Vereesa was most likely among them.
Before the change, he had already gone in to enjoy the naked bathing service.
But now his relationship with Vereesa is really awkward.
In line with the principle that if you can't afford to offend, you can still hide, he decided to be more restrained.
And he is indeed very tired today.
My body and mind are very tired, and I just want to wash and sleep.
I stood at the door of the hot spring hut and thought for a while.
Zong Shen turned around and left.
I took out the [Heavy Bearer Mecha] and prepared to go to the bathhouse in the living area to make do with it.
It just so happened that he also wanted to see the changes in the living area.
This actually gave him a good reason to act.
Driving the loader mecha, Zong Shen arrived at the living area in five or six minutes.
One hundred and sixty double-story stone houses are neatly arranged.
If it’s your first time visiting, you might even get lost.
A group of wolf cavalry was patrolling near the living area. They were holding torches, like a strip of light in the dark night, heading north from the periphery of the living area.
Occasionally, one or two magical patrol dogs would run past from a distance.
Unlike the wolf cavalry, these patrol dogs patrol very randomly.
Their main task is to detect stealth units that may enter the territory.
At this time, everyone is basically resting.
The entire living area is very quiet.
At night, it feels somewhat like a modern residence.
At least it looks more pleasing to the eye than those aboriginal villages.
He piloted the loader mecha and circled around the edge of the living area before finding the bathhouse.
Now several bathhouses have been built.
A total of four bathhouses are located in various directions of the living area.
Many toilets were also built.
Speaking of which, Zong Shen has always attached great importance to health issues in the territory.
These toilets not only make the territory clean and hygienic, but also convert excrement into basic fertilizer.
These fertilizers are handled by specialized farmers.
Placed in several huts next to farming and pastoral areas.
Those huts were specially reserved for storing these fertilizers.
It can also be regarded as preparing for the future agricultural development of the territory.
Zong Shen found a random bathhouse and parked the loader mecha outside.
Then he stepped inside.
There are forty wash stalls in each bathhouse.
It is divided into two sides for men and women, each with twenty compartments.
Naturally, no one is taking a bath in the bathhouse at midnight.
Zong Shen found the nearest cubicle on the men's side and walked in.
There are simple sprinklers and water valves inside.
There is no hot or cold water to choose from, only warm water with a temperature of about 40°C.
The principle of water supply comes from water runes and fire runes, plus a series of fancy rune magic circles.
The specific Zong Shen is not clear either.
Because there is no need to master the principles to construct the territory.
As long as it enters the construction state, the drawings and materials meet the requirements.
It will directly enter the automatic construction state.
Zong Shen took off his armor and placed it on the partition.
In three strokes, five divided by two, he took off all his clothes.
Unscrew the simple triangular valve, and hot water will immediately flow from the nozzle above your head.
Zong Shen was naked, raised his head, and was washed by hot water from head to toe.
The moment he closed his eyes, the whole world seemed to fall silent.
There was only the sound of rushing water in my ears.
The warm water washed his body, making him feel extremely relaxed and comfortable.
"call!"
After rinsing for a minute, Zong Shen lowered his head.
He used his hands to wipe away the water from his hair and face.
Open your eyes and look at your feet stepping on the slippery ground.
The pace of development during this period is still as tight as ever.
Maybe after the challenge month is over, he will have a chance to relax.
After washing his body, he placed the armor, helmet and other items on the ground.
Let the running water wash away naturally.
There are a lot of dents and damage on the appearance of [Liki Mo Battle Armor].
However, the overall damage was not serious.
The bombs he threw into the pits of the ruins also killed many murlocs before.
Those count as his kills.
Zong Shen checked it, whether it was [Li Mo Armor] or [Sequential Pocket Watch] and [Li Mo Ring].
Related skill values have been increased.
The water flow from the nozzle was not very strong, and it took several minutes to wash away all the stains on the armor and equipment.
The gray-brown dust turned into mud under the wash of water.
Follow the underground trough inside the bathhouse.
Zong Shen waited until the ground was washed clean before closing the valve.
He took out the linen underwear he had prepared and put it on.
He conveniently put away all the wet equipment and armor.
In the territory, he is still very relaxed.
He quickly walked out of the bathhouse and sat in the driver's seat of the loader mecha.
Start, boost power, turn...
Complete the operation in one go.
He drove the loader mecha and quickly returned to the outside of the lord's small building.
When passing by the hot spring hut, he stopped deliberately.
There was no movement inside.
This is not surprising. Twenty or thirty minutes have passed since he went to the bathhouse and washed up.
If I had the time, I should have finished washing it long ago.
It was only a few steps away from the lord's courtyard, and Zong Shen simply jumped off the loader's mecha.
With a flip of his hand, he put it into his portable storage compartment.
He walked quickly into the lord's small building.
Push the door open and lock it with your backhand.
In the bedroom on the second floor, Luna had already fallen asleep.
She was breathing evenly when Zong Shen entered the room.
Listening to this steady voice, he felt inexplicably at ease.
He couldn't help but walk lightly, came to the bed, and lay down directly on it.
He closed his eyes without any distractions and soon fell into sleep.
At around six o'clock the next morning, Zong Shen woke up in a daze.
He only slept for about four hours.
Luna should have woken up, and there was nothing next to him.
When I reached out and touched it, there was still body temperature that had not yet cooled down.
It means that Luna must have just woken up.
Zong Shen stretched himself, feeling that his sleepiness had completely dissipated.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! He sat on the bed and began to think about today's issues.
The exploration of the headquarters of the Lion Knight Legion has been completed, and he now has a large backlog of equipment on hand.
They are all rare and legendary standard equipment.
He will not sell this batch of equipment, but will keep it as a territorial reserve.
In addition, he also has a lot of equipment ranging from whiteboard to excellent level.
The origin of these equipment is very complicated, some are forged by the dwarves themselves, and some are obtained from treasure chests and looted from previous battles.
Since the end of the novice period, monsters carrying equipment are basically bound to produce equipment.
Just need to clean up the battlefield afterwards.
A lot of equipment was obtained in the early stages of implementation.
The grades of these equipment are uneven, as is the remaining durability.
Zong Shen once asked Mariel to sell part of it in the [market].
However, the two [markets] in the territory only have 8 places for sale in total.
It would be a waste just to deal with those "junk equipment".
Therefore, without realizing it, there were a lot leftover, piling up in the territory's warehouses.
Fragmented items like this take up a lot of storage space, so Mariel has already sorted them into the warehouse.
At least there are seven or eight hundred pieces.
Zong Shen has already thought about how to deal with them.
This batch of equipment is useless to Zong Shen, but it is still valuable to many lords.
And soon there will be a perfect processing opportunity in front of you.
That's when the Balrog Boss arrives.
As a regional collective activity, even if Zong Shen does not mobilize, at least two to three thousand lords with a development style that is more proactive and radical will come.
Before the challenge starts, he will go to the [Regional Channel] to mobilize.
Strive to have four to five thousand lords leading troops to participate in the war.
After the first Balrog boss is eliminated, it will be the best opportunity to dump equipment.
At that time, he can set up a stall on the same spot and start selling while everyone is trading in person.
The gathering of thousands of lords is enough to digest the rags he has in stock.
Converting these useless equipment into high-consuming resources for territory construction can be regarded as waste utilization.
I sat on the bed and thought for a while, feeling refreshed and refreshed.
When he came back to his senses, the last trace of sleepiness was gone.
After twisting his neck and moving his joints, Zong Shen gently got out of bed.
Started to wear it.
The sun is exceptionally bright today, and it is already bright outside at six or seven o'clock in the morning.
Judging from the weather, it seems a little bit hot.
However, the overall temperature is still around 20 degrees.
The signs of this climate challenge are actually not obvious.
After all, the hot weather is no better than the cold winter, that is, the sunny period.
The temperature fluctuates by ten to twenty degrees higher than usual.
After finishing dressing up, Zong Shen stepped on the spot a few times.
It was quiet in the lord's small building, and no one was in the habit of sleeping in.
The new [Level 4 Comprehensive Training Ground] has been built.
It's right next to the central circle, a few hundred meters away from the lord's building.
That training ground is large enough, covering hundreds of thousands of square meters.
It can meet the requirements of simultaneous training of the three major arms of bow, infantry and cavalry.
It can accommodate up to thousands of people.
As for the original [First-Level Training Ground], it has become a venue exclusively for farmers.
Zong Shen had already forgotten his original plan to arm the peasants.
But San Pang didn't forget it.
After handling chores such as construction and cooking every day, I would consciously take the first few dozen farmers to train on time.
He will continue to implement it until he gets clear instructions from Zong Shen.
The 50 whiteboard swords and 50 wooden shields that were made before were also distributed to them.
Now the general level of those farmers has reached lv8~lv9.
As long as you keep training for a while, you can successfully reach level 10.
In addition, the new training ground is not idle either.
Zong Shen had given instructions before, so all the idle warriors in the territory began to participate in the training consciously.
Through training, their skill level and personal level can be improved to a certain extent.
As for the masters, it’s still the same as before. There are only ten meditation rooms in the [Magic Palace], and it’s still on a first-come, first-served basis.
Fortunately, the first batch of masters in the territory have almost reached their cultivation limit.
At that time, the location of the meditation room can be freed up.
In fact, when broken down, there is a big difference between [Magic Hall] and [Training Ground].
The former directly provides attribute gains, while the latter obtains experience points through training.
Zong Shen didn't know if there was a training ground for masters.
As the various types of buildings in the territory become more and more complete, the population increases.
Development is also gradually getting on the right track.
Training is a good thing, it allows warriors to gradually increase their level without fighting.
And improving the level is actually equivalent to improving the strength.
Level is also an indicator of the combat effectiveness of warriors.
He stepped out of the lord's small building and took a breath of the not too fresh air.
Zong Shen decided to call Mariel and inquire about the development of the territory.
So he took out the communication crystal and contacted Mariel.
The communication was quickly connected, and as Zong Shen expected, Mariel was in the living area.
After receiving Zong Shen's notice, she immediately put down what she was doing and rode back on horseback.
It only took six or seven minutes to arrive outside the lord's small building.
He got off his horse, walked up to Zong Shen and bowed.
"grown ups…"
Zong Shen nodded, looking at the little girl's arrogant look, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Mariel now has the potential to be a workaholic.
"Mariel, I've been working hard on you lately."
"I saw the situation in the living area last night."
"You did a great job."
Zong Shen praised without hesitation.
This was indeed the case, and he was very satisfied with the little girl's performance.
The territory can become what it is now, and Mariel is indispensable.
"hey-hey…"
"It's all well-taught by adults!"
She smiled somewhat proudly.
She didn't care about other people's praise, but Zong Shen's praise was different.
Mariel felt like she had taken a bite of honey, and her heart felt sweet.
At the same time, there is also a sense of pride in being recognized.
"What did you do in the living area just now?"
Zong Shen also smiled and asked casually.
The development rhythm of the territory has been on the right track.
At least the citizens won't run out of things to do.
Hearing Zong Shen's question, Mariel implicitly lowered her head and looked at her chest.
"I'm going to plant trees."
"The necklace you gave me can inspire the power of natural magic."
"In addition, the refugees who joined in the past two days still need to undergo a new round of rectification."
Mariel's necklace has the skill "Tree Planting".
Originally Zong Shen had forgotten about it, but she obviously took it to heart.
There is still a lot of unused land in the territory.
Planting some trees is a harmless thing.
If it really gets in the way, just ask the farmers to chop it down.
"Oh? Where is it planted?"
"By the way, how many people are there in our territory now?"
Zong Shen still kept smiling and asked two questions in succession.
The former question is just a trivial matter, but the latter question is the key.
Hearing his words, Mariel raised her head again.
The smile on his face faded a little and became more serious.
"Sir, I planted it next to the ancient guardian."
"Despite the blessing of magic skills, it still takes several months to grow a small forest."
"As for the population issue, I have already made statistics."
Mariel said this and took out a homemade notebook bound with wire from her storage compartment.
The wire comes from the blacksmith shop.
The two blacksmith apprentices would also make small metal objects from time to time.
It's no problem to get some wire.
Paper pages are also ordinary paper in this world.
Traditional paper made of plant fibers that are forged, passed through water, shaped and dried.
She bound it carefully.
Zong Shen took the notebook, which looked so crude that it seemed a little funny.
Gently opened the soft first page.
Starting from the second page, some territory conditions are recorded.
Including consumption of supplies and food.
There is also the amount of resources exchanged through [market] trade.
and some memo-like information.
Recorded some of her thoughts on the next construction.
Even down to the level of detail.
Scroll to the end for the latest demographic information.
There are currently a total of 752 non-warrior people in the territory.
Among these more than 700 people was the little boy he brought back from Bosbon.
There are also characters like Quint, Alanna, and Uncle Dwarf.
Among them, 378 new refugees were admitted.
In terms of warriors, the Wolf Cavalry has the largest number, reaching 70.
Secondly, there are the dragon-shaped spear-shield warriors, immortal lancers, and Rhodok crossbowmen, which are enough warriors for a squad.
The total number of warriors is 152.
There are also 27 unequipped warriors from the destruction of Odo Village.
Zong Shen has not admitted these warriors yet, and will only treat them as free citizens.
This can also save a certain amount of control value.
There are also 268 kobolds.
This data is dynamic data, 10 more than the number Zong Shen remembered before.
This is not surprising, the reproductive ability of the kobold tribe should not be weak.
When we first moved, there were dozens of unhatched eggs alone.
It's not too outrageous that there are ten more kobolds in these days.
As for the prisoners, there are seven in total in the territory.
In addition to the five Jackdaw and Euphorbia warriors, there was also a Jackdaw Scout and Isido whose limbs were broken.
Of course, there is also a Frost Raven.
The statistics of these situations are clear and very clear.
In terms of population alone, Zong Shen's territory is already occupied by a thousand people.
Zong Shen carefully read Mariel's little notes and already had an idea in his mind.
He returned the notebook to Mariel.
He looked deeply at the ground and entered a state of thinking.
Now that the number of farmers in the territory is increasing day by day, it is necessary to let all these people play their role.
When Zong Shen thought about this, his first thought was the mine.
Originally, the size of the mine was not small, and just the mine tunnels that had been opened could be used for mining for a long time.
Plus the gem mine in the mountains and forests.
In the future, the territory will have a great demand for miners.
It is entirely possible to send two hundred farmers into the mines and train them according to the standards of miners.
After having an idea, Zong Shen raised his head.
But then he thought of a very crucial question.
"Mariel, are there any outstanding talents among the new refugees?"
The answer to this question is not in the notebook, but Zong Shen believes that Mariel should have done the corresponding talent classification work.
