Upon closer observation, these people are obviously ordinary people, about 20 to 40 years old. Most of them are not even as tall as Lei Xiao, and their physical fitness seems to be somewhat unsatisfactory.
After summarizing the attributes, Lei Xiao discovered.
Of these 40 first-level subordinates, 36 are one-star farmers, one is a two-star farmer, and the last three are all two-star hunters, with the initial loyalty points of 50 points.
As for skills, about one-third of farmers carry the "logging" passive, which increases the efficiency of gathering wood by 20%.
The three hunters carry the active skill "Trapping" and can make first-level traps.
The rest are all blank slates.
However, unlike the knotweed, these people basically carry basic tools such as axes and sickles, while the hunters all carry crude bows and arrows.
"Village Gangsong, representing the remaining 39 people in this village, please see the Lord!"
I saw one of them, a relatively stout, middle-aged two-star hunter, step forward and walk in greeting.
Immediately afterwards, everyone knelt down on one knee and offered their loyalty to Lei Xiao.
"Everyone, get up."
This time, Lei Xiao's performance was obviously more calm.
He nodded slightly first, glanced around the crowd, and then ordered: "Everyone forms a team of ten nearby and chooses the captain on their own.
You have only one task at this stage, which is to clean up the trees around the wooden house with all your strength.
If there is a lack of tools, the captains of each team will report directly to me."
As soon as Lei Xiao finished speaking, the 40 first-order subordinates immediately began to take action.
After a while, the entire territory showed a busy scene.
After upgrading to level 3 mansion, the scope of the safe zone also expanded to a large extent.
Therefore, even if so many people suddenly appeared in the territory, there was no overcrowding at all.
At the same time, the four elected captains came to Lei Xiao together after counting the tools they lacked.
As expected, except for the two-star hunter Gang Song who just spoke, the other captains are the three slightly stronger two-star subordinates.
Just like that, after summarizing, Lei Xiao immediately returned to the office to start production.
After a while, all the new tools were distributed in sufficient quantities.
Seeing that everything was on track, just when Lei Xiao was about to go back to the house to take a breather, he saw Gang Song and two other hunters walking over again.
When I got closer, I saw that the three of them were all a little coy. You looked at me and I looked at you, as if they had something to say.
After a while, Gang Song finally couldn't help it anymore, bowed and said to Lei Xiao: "Lord, we are all experienced hunters.
Although it is very dangerous outside the safe zone, with our ability, there is no problem in hunting a few hares and ducks nearby, so why should we be left behind to log wood?"
"Yes, yes, Lord." The shorter middle-aged hunter next to him also came up and echoed: "We are also good detectives, and we will definitely not disappoint the Lord!"
Looking at the puzzled expressions on the three people's faces, Lei Xiao smiled slightly and responded: "First of all, don't worry about the food issue, I have my own arrangements.
As for the reconnaissance, before you arrived, I had already sent another person out to explore the environment of several kilometers around the territory. Depending on the time, it is almost time to come back."
"Square... how many kilometers in radius?!"
After listening to Lei Xiao's words, the three hunters looked at each other with disbelief on their faces.
As old hunters who have been walking in the mountains all year round, they knew at a glance that this place was located deep in the mountains and old forests.
Even if they are experienced, they only dare to act within a radius of a hundred meters at most.
No matter how far away you are, there is a high chance that there will be powerful monsters with level one, three or four stars, or even level two. These are ruthless characters who kill without batting an eyelid!
"It seems that the guy who went out to investigate is either stupid or just trying to show off in front of the lord.
Alas, it must be more serious than bad..."
Just when Gang Song thought of this, the short hunter in front of him suddenly showed a look of fear, pointed at Gang Song's back, and said incoherently: "Bear... there is a bear!"
"Lao Du, this is a safe zone. Did your head get caught in the light door when you were teleporting?"
Looking at the other party with disdain, Gang Song turned around and saw a huge creature over two meters tall standing silently behind him.
Because of the backlight, he could only see a black outline, which made him almost breathless.
"Nah, it's still a big black bear!"
The hunter's intuition told Gang Song that it was dangerous! The giant beast in front of him was extremely dangerous!
In a panic, Gang Song was caught off guard. He only had time to utter a curse word before he sat down on the ground, too frightened to move.
"Polygonum cuspidatum, you're scaring one of our own. Move closer to the side and don't block the sunlight."
Looking at this hilarious scene in front of him, Lei Xiao looked dumbfounded.
"As you command, Lord."
A rough voice sounded, and Huzhang, who had returned from the investigation, stood beside Lei Xiao obediently.
"Let everyone else come here first."
When everyone gathered around, Lei Xiao patted the broad back of Hezhuang and said: "Let me introduce to you, this is your colleague Hezhuang, a fifth-level berserker. Let's get to know each other."
"Fifth...level five berserker?! This is one of our own?!"
After listening to Lei Xiao's words, everyone was stunned on the spot and began to look at each other with shock on their faces.
Gang Song, who had just been helped up, felt huge waves in his heart and opened his mouth involuntarily.
Although they are all farmers and hunters, they also know how powerful fifth-level masters are.
That is a super strong man among thousands of armies, as if he is in a no-man’s land!
In the country they were in, only the king's most trusted general had such astonishing strength!
There is no doubt that they can get the allegiance of the fifth-level masters. Their lord is probably not the heir to the throne of some country who comes out to experience life, right?!
At the same time, a series of prompts sounded in Lei Xiao's ears one after another.
[Congratulations, your subordinate first-level two-star hunter Gang Song has developed a strong admiration for you, and his loyalty has increased by 20 points, currently at 70 points. 】
[Congratulations, your subordinate first-level two-star hunter Eucommia ulmoides has developed a strong admiration for you, and its loyalty has increased by 20 points, currently at 70 points. 】
[Congratulations, your subordinate first-level two-star farmer Magnolia officinalis has developed a strong admiration for you, and his loyalty has increased by 20 points, currently at 70 points. 】
【Congratulations, your subordinate...】
[Tip: If your subordinate’s loyalty reaches 100 points, he will be loyal to you to the death and will never decrease.]
Seeing that the loyalty of 40 first-level subordinates all increased by 20 points, Lei Xiao couldn't help but show a slightly surprised look.
Good guy, it turns out that this is how loyalty is improved...
