Chapter 2 Establishing a Territory - Hope Village



Zhou Bai's eyes fell on the screen in front of him.

After the Doomsday System was announced to be officially operational, the content on the screen had already changed.

The most important page is the personal introduction above.

【Character: Zhou Bai】

[Race: Human]

[Level: lv.0 (0/100)]

[Identity: Refugee]

[Health: 86/100]

[Attributes: Constitution (4/10), Intelligence (7/10), Agility (5/10), Defense (2/10)]

On the left side of the personal introduction, the friend function is displayed, which is currently not enabled.

...

...

Below are columns for maps, backpacks, private messages, etc.

It's obviously a regular game layout.

Above these pages, there is a layer of notification floating, which is the content of the system sound notification that just popped up.

[Host, do you want to bind the lord token? ]

"Yes." Zhou Bai responded decisively.

After selecting, the notification disappears and a small red dot appears in the backpack column. When you click it, you will see a lord token in one of the grids.

Zhou Bai directly clicked on the lord token, and an introduction page opened in front of her.

[Item: Lord Token]

[Introduction: After use, you can establish a territory, which can provide shelter and protection from monsters]

After reading the introduction, Zhou Bai couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.

Protection from monsters?

Does this mean that there will be a Warcraft invasion in the doomsday game?

What exactly is World of Warcraft?

All of this is unknown, and the unknown is terrifying.

But what makes Zhou Bai happy is that she now has a lord token, so she can establish a territory and have a safe place to live.

It’s totally worth exchanging a few buildings for this reward!

The next moment, Zhou Bai told his parents about the rewards he received and the situations he encountered.

Hearing this, Zhou Zhengping felt relieved. He was worried that the unknown doomsday game would bring many unknown dangers, and under these dangers, he would not be able to protect his wife and daughter well.

Now that my daughter has this lord token, as long as she finds a suitable location to establish a territory, her safety will be guaranteed to a certain extent.

"Let's find a suitable territory." Zhou Zhengping said directly.

Since it is confirmed that there will be monsters appearing on the gamified Blue Star, it is naturally better to establish the territory as early as possible, which will also be safer.

"Yeah." Zhou Bai nodded. They urgently needed a safe place.

Afterwards, the family of three started to move, preparing to look for a suitable location nearby, and as they moved around, they began to meet other people.

Compared to the stability of their family, the people they met were obviously very panicked.

"There's a monster, there's a monster ahead! Run!" Seeing Zhou Zhengping's family of three, someone shouted in fear.

"What monster?" Zhou Zhengping asked. The gamification of Blue Star has become a reality. All they can do is try to understand this game world.

"It looks like a dog, but its size has increased several times. It attacks people when it sees them, and several people were bitten to death on the spot. Everyone fled in all directions, and no one knows which direction it went. Let's run quickly!" After the man said this, he quickened his escape speed.

And behind this man, there were countless people fleeing for their lives.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Zhengping had no choice but to run away with his daughter and wife, but they went straight in the wrong direction.

After watching this "escape", he knew very well how important the token his daughter possessed was in this doomsday, and he didn't know whether it could be snatched away. In this case, he naturally had to avoid the crowd.

In addition, it is better to turn the token into a territory as soon as possible.

That mutated dog should be a monster, and we don’t know if there will be other monsters later.

What Zhou Zhengping could think of, Zhou Bai could naturally think of as well.

Normally she was just too lazy to think because she had her parents to support her, but now her parents were in danger, so how could she just rely on them?

She had also observed while she was taking action just now that although the surrounding buildings had disappeared, the basic environment was very similar to where she was before, which she verified on the map.

In this case, they might as well choose the villa area where they lived before. The villa area was a site specially selected by the developer after consulting a Feng Shui master. There is a mountain behind it and a river in front of it. It can be said to be surrounded by mountains and rivers. After it was developed, it became the hottest real estate project in the local area.

Therefore, as a territory, the development potential here is not bad.

Thinking of this, Zhou Bai called his parents, "Dad, Mom, I thought of a suitable place, shall we go take a look?"

"Where?" Zhou Zhengping asked subconsciously. Although he trusted his daughter, the territory was too important and he still had to be cautious.

"Dad, didn't you notice that in the villa area where we were before, although the buildings have disappeared, the environment is still the same." Zhou Bai reminded.

Zhou Zhengping and Ding Qiurou listened to Zhou Bai's words and looked around. After observing, they suddenly found that the arrangement of the surrounding trees seemed to be the same as before.

If that's the case, the villa area where they originally lived must be there too.

That place is indeed a suitable place to establish a territory.

"Okay, let's go back!" Zhou Zhengping quickly agreed.

Led by Zhou Zhengping, the family of three walked towards the villa area.

Along the way, they met a lot of people. Faced with the sudden doomsday game, many people have not yet reacted and have a look of confusion on their faces. Faced with the changing world, they don’t know where to go for a while and can only go with the flow.

Zhou Bai didn't say a word about this.

The territory has not been built yet, and if she takes these people there, no one knows what accidents will happen. She can't take the risk.

The family of three hardened their hearts and pretended not to see anything, but they still gave a friendly reminder that there were monsters outside and asked everyone to be extra careful.

After an unknown amount of time, they finally saw a familiar environment.

After seeing the mountains and rivers, their guess was confirmed.

"Dad, Mom, I chose this place as my territory?" Zhou Bai asked.

They both nodded.

Soon, Zhou Bai clicked to take out the lord token from her backpack, and the next moment, the token appeared in her hand.

【Do you want to use the Lord Token? 】

"yes."

As soon as he finished speaking, the token in his hand emitted a dazzling light and flew out.

When he landed in mid-air, a map appeared in front of Zhou Bai, and a small territory map was displayed on the map.

[Please select the location to place the territory on the map. ]

Zhou Bai observed it and chose it directly.

After she confirmed it, a small territory appeared in the open space in front of her, exactly the same as the territory map, with a small wooden fence surrounding a small house in the center.

When the territory bubbled up, the whole family looked on in amazement.

This is... the territory? Isn't it too simple?

[Please name your village. It will appear on the character map after being named.]

"Hope?" It's okay if it's a little vulgar, but at least it's catchy, and I hope it really is hope.

[Congratulations to the host for establishing the Territory Hope Village, and reward building*2. ]

There was an additional territory option on Zhou Bai's screen. After clicking it, the situation of the territory was clearly displayed on the screen.

[Territory: Hope Village]

[Level: Level 0 Village (Upgrade)]

[Population: 0/100]

【Tax rate: 10% (adjustable)

【Wealth: 88 gold, 34 silver, 72 bronze】

[Buildings: Lord's Mansion (Level 1), Fence, other buildings to be unlocked (optional * 2)]

[Mall: Exclusive to the territory, only provides materials]

【Current ranking: ***】

[Note: The territory can only be captured by the lord, and the protection period for novices is 1 month]

The next step was the settings for tourists and residents. Since they could be adjusted at any time, Zhou Bai set them up according to the system initialization.

After confirming it, he looked at Zhou Zhengping and Ding Qiurou, "Dad, Mom, are there any changes to your map?"

The scope of the map is limited. Initially, all they can see is 10,000 square meters centered on their destination, but the places they have been to can be expanded. The villa area was outside their initial map before, but after they came over, the map included it.

"Yes, there is a new Hope Village on our map."

"Then let's go in and take a look?" Zhou Bai asked.

"Um."

Zhou Bai entered smoothly, but Zhou Zhengping and Ding Qiurou were stopped outside, and a notification appeared on the panel.

[Dear refugees, welcome to Hope Village! Currently available identities are: Visitor (10 copper coins/day), Resident (10 silver coins/permanent)]

Zhou Zhengping and Ding Qiurou looked at each other and directly chose "resident".

[Congratulations on becoming a resident of Hope Village. Please go to the Lord's Mansion to receive your identity token. ]

It was only at this time that Lord Zhou Bai received the news.

[Hope Village has added 2 residents. Within the territory, the lord can view the residents' personal information and has the right to expel the residents. 】

When Zhou Bai saw this, her eyes brightened. This would be more conducive to her, as a lord, managing the territory. If there were some unreliable residents in the future, she could simply drive them away.

Zhou Bai immediately mentioned it to his parents, and they were very happy, at least their daughter's safety was guaranteed.

Afterwards, the family of three discussed and headed towards the Lord's Mansion. It seemed that many functions of the territory needed to be explored, so it was a good opportunity to master all the rules as soon as possible while there was no one else around.

At this time, not far from here, many people were fleeing after being chased by monsters, and suddenly they received a notification.

[You have entered the jurisdiction of Hope Village and can go to Hope Village]

[Note: Villages, towns, cities and other territories can defend against different levels of monsters according to their defense. ]

After looking at the notification and then at the Hope Village that suddenly appeared on the edge of the map, many people became excited.

Especially as mentioned above, the territory can defend against monsters.

From time to time they encountered some monsters outside, which should be monsters. Some were strong and some were weak. The weak ones were okay, as they could kill them and even get some supplies. But when they encountered the stronger ones, they had no way to deal with them, and their lives might even be in danger. Besides, they couldn't stay in the wild all the time!

It was unknown where this territory came from, but they could go there and take a look.
