Hope Village.
Through the NPCs, many residents have already gained a general understanding of the situation on the Stan Continent.
And what they learned
Some residents who didn't get to the front of the NPC could only rely on the information on the bulletin board and from other people's mouths.
After all, there are only so many NPCs, and not all of them are willing to repeat the same content over and over again.
As a result, the bulletin board was crowded with people at this time, and many residents purchased the information directly.
After getting some information, some people couldn't help but start a discussion.
"Fuck! The status of humans in this Stan continent is too low!"
"It's not that they are low, but that they are being targeted! I am sure there must be some kind of grudge or hatred here, otherwise why would other races point at humans and pluck their fur?"
"I learned from Harrison that if humans are captured by the dwarven territory, they will directly use humans as coolies. But they still despise it! They think that goblins are more useful."
...
...
"It's not just the dwarves. The orcs also have a hard time with human slaves there. They often get sick and go hungry. Sometimes they are easily used as bait to lure monsters."
"In the future, the territory war must not be over the territory of other races!"
"Yes, the NPCs also mentioned that if possible, we should try not to encounter them. Now, if we encounter other races in the same level of territory, we are basically no match for them, and we will lose both the lady and the troops."
"Is the strength ranking clear?"
"Elf>Orc>Dwarf>Human>Goblin."
"These are just the ones on the surface. There are other races with a low sense of existence! For example, the undead, for example, the dragon race!"
"Dragon clan! Are there still dragon clans in this world?"
"Yes, but they have always been secluded and do not participate in territory battles. After all, if they participate, no one can defeat them."
"According to this calculation, our strength in this world is still too poor."
“Fortunately, there is still room to grow.”
"Well, those powerful territories are for the future. Now, I should work hard to improve myself."
"Yes, we are no longer the same as when we first arrived."
“…”
Through communication with each other, everyone gradually accepted the reality.
After all, they are no longer the same as when they first arrived, and they know very well that fear is the most powerless thing.
"Let's go! Now that we have understood the information, let's go take a look outside the territory."
"See if the surrounding environment will change like last time."
"It's better not to change. You've just gotten familiar with the roads outside."
"I feel like the environment outside won't change. What's changed is probably the monsters and resources! Or somewhere further away."
"Do you think there might be any native territories near our territory?"
"That's possible. Can we form a group to test it?"
"Be careful! Don't act rashly. Listen to the territory's instructions. We will form a team to test it. Don't be too careful and get wiped out."
"Too."
"I will continue to run the store. No matter what, everyone has to make a living."
"You must prepare more delicious food. This way, we will be more motivated to fight monsters outside."
"Speaking of delicious food, now it's different from before. Let's go to the convenience store and buy some instant noodles before we leave! Then we can just soak them in hot water and eat them. This will save time and help us kill more monsters."
“…”
As some people were talking, they quickly gathered their teams as usual and went out hunting in groups. On the other hand, the residents who decided to shine in the territory also hurriedly prepared for their own shops and stalls.
Many NPCs were touched by the attitude of the residents of Hope Village after learning the truth.
Think about it, if the same thing happened to them, they would definitely not be so relaxed.
No matter where these humans come from, their tenacity is truly admirable and worth learning!
"Baker, keep on farming! There's still a lot of land that hasn't been planted yet!"
"Aina, we have almost understood the habits of those monsters. Can we go out and capture the monster cubs today?"
“…”
At the scene, residents working for the territory have also approached the NPCs.
Baker and Ina came back to their senses instantly and quickly led the team to work.
When they left, they still looked a little shy. The lord assigned these people to them and asked them to lead them in their work, but they ended up needing to be reminded of many things. However, these residents were much smarter than them.
At least, if we listen to their opinions and can do a better job, that would be great!
It's not just Baker and Ina who think so. Bayer and others have also learned about the residents' creative ideas through their interactions over the past few days, which has indeed benefited them a lot.
Watching Baker and Ina and their group leave, they also prepared to work.
Dennis was the first to act. The hospital was his territory now, so he naturally didn't need to follow Bayer. After signaling to Bayer, he looked directly at the newly recruited doctors Rutherford and Daisy beside him and said directly: "Let's go! It's time for us to go to the hospital to work. You just got here, so let me introduce the situation to you..."
Starting with Dennis, other NPCs also took action and went out to complete missions with their respective teams.
In just a short while, the territory returned to the rhythm before the incident.
**
Zhou Bai, who was watching this scene from the side, also looked somewhat relieved.
With the hard work during this period, everyone has grown.
Then, Zhou Bai went straight to Bayer.
She also had some information she needed to know from Bayer, and some plans had to be implemented based on the new information.
The two of them stood in front of the bulletin board openly.
Bayer looked at the bulletin board and asked directly, "I'm really curious, what is your world like?"
In fact, he had come here to check out the bulletin board out of curiosity when it came out before, but unfortunately, he couldn't understand the content on it. However, after listening to the words of the residents, he almost understood the purpose of the bulletin board.
Considering everything that happened before and after, he was really curious about their world.
"That world is completely different from here. There is no magic, but life is much more convenient than here, ****." After saying this, the rest of the content was muted.
Zhou Bai was stunned for a moment, then said: "It seems that this world has restrictions on this."
Bayer understood, "Although I don't know, it should be fine there."
"Yeah." Zhou Bai nodded.
Bayer did not continue the topic, "If you want to know something, just ask!" He would never hide anything he knew.
"After integrating into this world, where is our territory in your Stan continent? Will it be connected with the human kingdom?" Zhou Bai asked directly.
Bayer glanced at his map and replied, "After this morning, my map has returned to normal. Our territory is now on the Stan continent and on the territory of the human kingdom. Hope Village, Yuxi Village, Guangshui Village, Qinghe Village... The distances and directions of these territories remain unchanged, but they have been inserted into the original gaps without any incongruity."
"Gap?"
"In the native territory." Bayer's eyes became more serious. "It just so happened that I had been here before as a mercenary, so I had some records of the territory, so I could see it more clearly. Most of the undead like me have never been to the surrounding areas, so their maps would be the same as before, except that there are a few more territories such as Hope Village, so they didn't notice this."
"It means that we have completely merged with the territory of the human kingdom and become one of them."
"Yes! So, Lord, you must prepare early. There is a small town in the nearby territory, Benguela Town, which is only half a day's journey away. If the residents of our territory go far, they are likely to encounter the other party's territory." Bayer said.
"Then can they find our territory without encountering our people?" Zhou Bai asked.
"We will only know that this territory exists, but we will not know where it is unless we come into contact with each other." Bayer said confidently.
"Is the territory of the entire human kingdom the same?"
"Yes." Bayer nodded, "But there is one difference."
"where?"
"The Human Kingdom
"Then our territory also needs to be supervised by the royal family?" Zhou Bai was surprised. Is this world a monarchy?
"No, no need. The royal family is now in name only. He cannot control the human kingdom. Each territory is independent. Some small territories will rely on some large territories for development, forming various forces. Saint Sebastian is
Zhou Bai wrote it down bit by bit.
In the end, Zhou Bai let out a long sigh.
It turns out that this is the real world. In the future, their territory will officially exist in this world.
"What is the relationship between territories? Will larger territories bully smaller ones?" Zhou Bai couldn't help but ask.
Bayer listened and paused, "Yes, territorial wars do not only occur in the territories of different races. In order to avoid fighting with other races, some human territories will directly choose other human territories. The reason why the human race is becoming increasingly weak is also due to internal friction."
One's own interests are eternal.
Anyway, those powerful lords can always protect themselves no matter what their territories are like, and the suffering areas have always been populated by the lower-class residents.
After listening to this, Zhou Bai let out a long sigh. In this case, wouldn't their newly-established territories be the targets of the native territories?
“You’ve been to the town of Benguela. How was it?”
"I went there a long time ago, and I don't have a very deep impression of it. But since it's a small town, they won't take the village seriously. We're not on the same level, and they won't target us in a territory war." Bayer said directly, "But we must be careful of the professionals from the small town coming to plunder resources near our village, because relatively speaking, the monsters faced by resource points near the village are easier than those in the small town."
Zhou Bai listened and paused slightly.
It seems that she really needs to be prepared for contact with the local territory and local residents, especially within the territory. If other residents come, she cannot let the residents of her territory suffer losses within her own territory.
Looking at Zhou Bai's expression, Bayer guessed her thoughts and said directly: "Don't worry too much. With the current strength of our territory, their professionals will not be able to stir up any waves in our territory, and they dare not easily enter the territory and act recklessly."
"Even so, we have to prepare what we should prepare." Zhou Bai responded, "And it's not just about Benguela Town. There's also the territory war you just mentioned. Last time, we faced a new territory like Hope Village, but
Bayer also reacted immediately.
Yes, there are so many new territories this time, including some level 0 villages, which will definitely become the target of many village-level territories, not only those of the human kingdom, but also those of other races.
Thinking about it, Bayer said directly: "If possible, we should take action earlier and choose the Overlord Village from last time?"
In this way, we can also buy time for territory development.
Zhou Bai listened to Bayer's suggestion and smiled. It seemed like a solution, but not the best one. "There is still time. We will consider it later. Now let's deal with the territory. The office on the second floor of the Lord's Mansion has been renovated. The Military Management Office, Business Management Office, Personnel Management Office, and Financial Management Office should start operating! I will arrange the personnel of the latter three departments, but the Military Management Office needs you."
"What should I do?" Bayer's attention was also drawn back. Although he had experience in command, he knew very well that commanding a combat team was different from commanding the management of territory soldiers.
"Put the orcs, undead, and human soldiers into the same team! Previously, this was so that you could better adapt to the new territory. Now, after a period of adjustment, you are familiar with each other, so there is no need to divide them into different teams." Zhou Bai said directly, "You will still be the commander. Heidi, O'Neill, and Zhou Zhengping belong to the infantry team, divided into three teams. Frey, Lucas, and Li Xingteng belong to the shield team, divided into three teams. Alick, Simmons, and Cao Jingshan are in charge of the archer team, which is also divided into three teams. As for you, you will be in charge of these three soldier teams, and then select some of them as the law enforcement team of the territory. You will supervise them directly in the territory, let them patrol the territory and maintain order in the territory. As for the soldier team, in addition to going out on missions, you should also send more people to guard the city gates... You can handle the specific details!"
Contact and communication with the native territory and residents is a new challenge for the territory, but it is also an opportunity.
If the residents of Benguela Town want to come to their territory to collect resources, it also means that they will come to Hope Village.
I hope that many of the things that are now appearing in the village will not be found in the native territory and will not be seen by the native residents.
They may be able to "take back" those resources in their territory through other means.
Both sides can benefit from this exchange.
However, the prerequisite is that Hope Village can suppress the professionals in Benguela Town.
And after doing what she just mentioned, even if they come, the safety and order of the territory will not be a problem.
"Okay." Bayer listened and glanced at Zhou Bai, his eyes full of admiration.
He also saw the benefits of doing so.
There is a smart lord who is full of confidence in the future of Hope Village.
Then, after discussing some details, Bayer left first and started to search for suitable candidates for the law enforcement team in his mind.
As for Zhou Bai, after taking a look at the bulletin board, he turned and went to the blacksmith shop.
It's time to put the crossbow drawings that Bayer gave me last time to use.
Anyway, no matter what we face next, it’s a good idea to enhance the combat effectiveness of the territory!
Two chapters combined into one big chapter!
