Following Ai Lan's instructions, a huge bubble slowly rose from the bottom of the sea.
Countless seawaters were forced open, revealing a large area of mangrove roots and seabed sediment.
"Everyone come to the sea with me and clear an open area first."
After waiting for a whole month, the city was finally ready to be built, and Ai Lan could hardly contain her excitement.
There is no need to choose the location for building the city. It is close to the main trunk of the mangrove, that is, at the bottom of the canopy.
It is the best place to build a city, bar none.
Without seeing this legendary tree with your own eyes, it may be difficult to understand what the Kingdom of Trees is.
Mangrove's natural ability actually has three variations.
Its canopy can form an extremely flat ground, allowing intelligent creatures to build cities on it.
The trunk branches that grow out of it can support a small island on the sea, allowing intelligent creatures to build cities on it.
The bubbles it creates can push away the surrounding seawater and create a space without seawater in the deep sea.
Ai Lan chose the third option, he wanted to build a city under the sea.
The reason for this is simple. The area near the main trunk of the mangrove is the most defensive place.
It is convenient to build it on the canopy of a tree, but it cannot be protected by the mangroves.
Unlike other lords who own the Arkiman mangrove tree, his mangrove tree is alive and can move around with wriggling roots.
Moreover, the awakened mangrove can not only walk freely, but also fight monsters and upgrade.
Although the upgrade experience of level 8 arms is much more than that of level 1 arms.
However, the experience required to upgrade from level 0 to level 2 is only 100,000. It takes a little time to quickly raise the total level of the mangrove to level 10.
Although Ai Lan doesn't know what Mangrove's elite trial is.
But based on the various ways to become an elite, he has deduced that the difficulty of the elite trial must not be too high.
The most difficult part for an ordinary template to become an elite is to increase the overall level.
Ai Lan is also looking forward to what changes will happen after Mangrove breaks through to the elite template.
As for the hero level, he hasn't dared to think about it so much yet.
After diving into the seabed with their men, they quickly cleared out all the sand and gravel near the main trunk.
A piece of extremely smooth ground with roots appeared in front of Ai Lan.
The area he chose is located directly in front of the mangrove trunks and is about the size of several football fields.
Compared with the mangroves, which are several kilometers high and so huge that one can see the end of the tree at a glance, this bubble space does seem a bit smaller.
But in fact, it is enough to build a village in such a large area. You can expand it at any time if you want to expand it.
"Transforming the heart of the city into the natural system."
When Heart of the City was first obtained, it was a neutral system with no attributes.
If you want to build a commercial city, then the neutral city heart is undoubtedly the best choice.
"The attributes of the Heart of the City cannot be changed after the conversion. Do you want to start the conversion?"
"yes."
As soon as he confirmed it, the colorless heart of the city immediately bloomed with green light.
After a while, a brand-new nature level 0 city heart appeared in his hands.
"It's finally starting!"
"Use the Heart of the City and I will build a city here."
"Warning: Once the Heart of the City is used, it cannot be taken back. Players are advised to read the "Lord's Manual" carefully before making a decision."
"Confirm creation."
With Ai Lan's confirmation again, the heart of the city slowly fell into the place he designated.
"Ding, a new city has been established."

Residents: None
Existing building
Assembly Hall: The core building of the city, which maintains the basic operation of the city and converts 50 points of general energy every day.
Buildable buildings: missing blueprints.
"The name of the city should be Mangrove Village."
Since it is a city built on mangroves, there is no need to choose a complicated name. It is simply Mangrove Village, which is simple and easy to remember.
After building his first city, Ai Lan did not start building it immediately. Instead, he walked into the council hall and came to the core of the city, where the energy pool is located.
This energy pool is actually a transformation of the heart of the city, and the liquid stored in it is the existing universal energy in the city.
General energy: 1000 points.
Click on the properties panel of the council chamber.
Name: Assembly Hall
Faction:Nature
Level:Level 0
Durability:1500/1500
Function: Maintain the basic operation of the city and convert 50 points of general energy every day.
Bonus: Tree Country
Upgrade: 100,000 points of universal energy
"It takes one hundred thousand points to upgrade!"
The city is not built on leyline nodes, and only 50 energy points are given per day.
But Mangrove's talent can give you 2,000 points in one day.
Faction energy can be converted into general energy at will without any consumption. When general energy is converted into camp energy, there will be consumption.
"Two thousand points are not enough. Upgrading requires 100,000 points."
It is the easiest to upgrade from level 0 to level 1, basically any lord can be upgraded.
But Ai Lan was not willing to wait fifty days.
"After fifty days, the day lilies are cold."
He took out a pearl and threw it into the energy pool, and the stored energy immediately increased.
Throw an emerald down, and you get five more points.
The other resources are similar. The rarer the resources, the more energy will be added.
Throwing wood and stone in will give you a little bit.
"I'll go, this is going to make me a big farmer!!"
Pearl Hut [Building Drawing]: A level 2 marine building, which can build a Pearl Hut in the water and produce 10 pearls every day.
Ring of Pearls [Building Blueprint]: Marine level 3 building, which increases the output of pearls in the territory.
"It's still not enough, the drawings are too short."
The energy gap is a bit too big. Even if these two buildings are built, it is still far from one hundred thousand.
"Mars, Aphra, Old One-Eye, come in."
Ai Lan called them into the lord's mansion and asked about the results of this exploration.
"Is there any resource point nearby? I want to upgrade Redwood Village to level 1 as quickly as possible."
"Legion Commander."
As soon as Mars opened his mouth, Ai Lan interrupted him and said, "Call me Lord."
"Um...Lord, this sea area is relatively barren."
"In total we found a quarry, a crystal mine and a turtle nest."
The rest of the harvest was handed over to Ai Lan when they returned to the team.
They are mainly scattered resources, not many.
"In addition, we also discovered an island in the eastern part of the sea, and there seemed to be many seabirds living on it."
Due to time constraints, they were not able to go to the island to explore. They just wrote down the location of the island and hurried back.
Ai Lan was a little disappointed with the barrenness of this sea area, but he did not forget what was the greatest advantage of Mangrove Village.
"Now that I have discovered the island, I must go and explore it."
Islands represent resources, and what Ai Lan lacks most now are all kinds of resources.
"I have to think carefully about what to build in the stockade, and let the mangroves move first."
"Yalkiman mangroves, using single trees to form a forest."
The highest level of the skill "One Tree Can Make a Forest" allows the mangrove to grow seventy-nine branches and trunks.
Doing this will have a great impact on the growth of the mangrove. After all, the more branches there are, the less nutrients the trunk will have.
But the mangrove tree in Ai Lan's hand has been awakened into a tree-man state and cannot grow even if it wants to.
Therefore, using a single tree to form a forest will have no impact on it.
Under his command, twenty-five huge tree trunks suddenly rose up among the underwater mangroves covered with aerial roots.
These tree trunks seemed to be on steroids, and began to grow rapidly under a mysterious force.
After a while, the primary single tree forest has completely completed its growth.
At this moment, Ai Lan's exclusive ability, Forest Phantom, automatically began to take effect in the mangroves.
A blurry shadow instantly enveloped the entire Yalkiman mangrove tree, and silently, the mangrove forest disappeared under the sea.
However, the huge body of the mangrove island is too obvious in the sea currents. Even camouflage techniques cannot hide the traces of water passing through the woods.
But it doesn't matter, the function of advanced camouflage is not that simple.
"Xide, is there any creature on the seabed that is about the same size as a mangrove?" Ai Lan called Xide directly and asked about the knowledge of marine life.
"There are quite a lot of marine life in the deep sea that are about the same size as mangroves."
"But if you want to go offshore, only the negative island crab is more suitable." Xi De is indeed a fish expert. He immediately gave Ai Lan the answer without even thinking about it.
“Then let’s take the Island Crab”
"Describe to me what this crab looks like."
Under Xi De's careful introduction, Ai Lan tried dozens of times and finally transformed the mangrove forest into the appearance of a negative island crab.
As a shadow flashed, a giant crab the size of an island suddenly appeared deep in the sea.
"Target east, advance at full speed."
The giant crab took extremely exaggerated steps and began to move towards the island on the east side.
