A few days passed, but Tang Yu did not leave Geer City.
The bridgehead of the Kuroshio world has been established, and he does not need to do the rest personally.
Zabol and Shay have already set off for the royal capital.
Elaine, Winnie, and Luo Zhe returned to Green Shade to handle matters.
Because this trip was extremely smooth and full of plans, the few people only stayed in the other world for less than a day before they appeared in the territory again. All affairs in Luyin were as usual. Except for a few people including Chen Haiping, no one knew that their city lord had already traveled around the other world.
Tang Yu stayed in Geercheng.
As a bridgehead, the importance of this city is self-evident.
With this territory and the ability to use the Town Portal Scroll, many fatal dangers can be avoided.
Xiaoli and Xingling Xingyue were sent by him to find another place suitable for building a sub-territory.
"Now that I think about it, I seem to be alone... Oh no, there's also Nancy."
Nancy followed him like a little tail. Seeing him turn around, she also looked over eagerly, thinking there was some mission.
Of course there is none.
In Geer City, there is no need to convince people with reason.
Yilianlu's hand made the last few nobles feel cold from body to soul. Even if it was just him and Nancy, these people had no resistance at all, which disappointed Tang Yu.
Just keep it.
All the nobles are dead, which can easily cause unrest. Now these nobles are plotting against the dead nobles' property and secretly arguing with each other, which makes the city much easier to manage.
Tang Yu asked Chen Haiping to use the teleportation formation to come to Geer City, and promoted several people including Buckley. Several nobles also helped manage the city honestly.
The corpses of dark creatures outside the city have been cleared away.
When you kill dark creatures here, there is no soul power that can be absorbed by the awakened ones, but there is still a probability of digging out source crystals from the heads of dark creatures, but the probability is much lower than on earth.
It also contributes to the poverty here.
Originally, the sergeants who defended the city did not receive any salary. Only generals like Buckley had a certain salary, but it was also very small. In an area that is already lacking in resources, most of the wealth is concentrated in the nobility. Even the commanders and generals in the city, unless they are direct descendants of the nobility, will always have insufficient training resources.
Barkley was able to cultivate to the eleventh level, even if it took twenty or thirty years, he was considered a genius with excellent talent.
After taking over Geer City, Tang Yu re-established the salary system and received his first Source Crystal in his life. The soldiers guarding the city immediately became more loyal to him as the new city lord... The direct lineage of the previous city lord and the direct lineage of the nobles. , those who were slightly rebellious, such as some of the commanders and generals of the first army defending the city who were subordinate to the city lord, were basically all dead. These grassroots soldiers were not loyal to anyone in the first place. Because their families were all in the city, they picked it up without hesitation. Weapons were used to fight the dark creatures. When the city lord changed, some people began to worry about unrest. Now it seems that the city lord is not only strong, but also considerate of the common people.
Good city lord!
Tang Yu didn't know that he had been given N number of good guy cards and was instructing the sergeants to clean up the ruins of the outer city... His second task was to rebuild the outer city.
The inner city was too narrow, and he found that many civilians were living in the open. In the outer city, only a small part of the city wall was destroyed. As long as the collapsed part was repaired, it would not be difficult to regain the outer city.
Just spend money.
Several nobles sneered. Tang Yu knew that they were watching a joke and thought that he was doing something without any benefit. However, this matter was really more than just a act of kindness on his part.
As the bridgehead of Geer City, the several city-defending regiments will be the core force to guard the city in the future. By cleaning up the outer city area, slowly integrating the power of several regiments and then improving the combat effectiveness of these soldiers is one of them.
Second, collect thought energy.
Ever since Elaine took action to deal with the black tide, sporadic telekinesis has been generated. These days, he has built houses, increased salaries for soldiers, and brought warmth to civilians. It has produced immediate results, and telekinesis has skyrocketed. .
The original territory was too small. Even if he expanded it partially, he would not be able to cover the entire inner city. The system would not be able to collect the energy value generated by civilians outside the territory.
Tang Yu accidentally discovered the magical effect of the 'mysterious branch'.
'Mysterious branches', coupled with the formations specially arranged by the City Lord's Mansion, can collect 'popularity'. This mysterious and mysterious invisible power, in Tang Yu's opinion, is similar to Nian Neng, but the level is lower. The City Lord's Mansion has The way of using "popularity" is also very rough.
He put the 'mysterious branch' back into the core of the formation, and the collected 'popularity' was converted into 'psychic energy', which was equivalent to collecting the telekinesis energy of the residents of the entire inner city... Although the 'mysterious branch' collected 'popularity' The efficiency is not as good as territory, but it is better than the cost-effectiveness.
Nowadays, mind energy is used everywhere, so you have to be sparing.
"Unfortunately, the inner city only has a population of tens of thousands. It is said that before the outer city was breached, there were two to three hundred thousand civilians in the entire Geer City..."
Kuroshio World...well, the place formerly known as Aino Continent, the city population is still quite large...I heard that there was no shortage of food before the end of the world. At that time, the population of Geer City was nearly one million.
…
Discus is a serf of a noble family in the inner city.
As a serf, Discus did not have any freedom. His only and all work every day was to help his master cultivate the fields... dragging his small and malnourished body.
When they learned that their master had died and they were ordered to farm the land for the new city lord, Discus was numb. It just changed hands from a small noble to a big noble.
Of course he did not resist and was taken to the vicinity of the city lord's palace. Along with him, there were dozens of former serfs or freedmen.
"From now on, you will be responsible for growing crops in this area."
A large piece of fertile land appeared in front of them. Discus, who had planting experience, knew that this was different from the barren land he had planted before. The gap was really huge, and he could see it at a glance.
Is the city lord's land different
Wait, wait, Discus has an impression that this area seems to be the west side of the city lord's palace. There used to be many magnificent buildings here.
He looked around blankly and determined that the building of the City Lord's Mansion had been bulldozed and turned into land for planting.
"The seeds are all here. Today your task is to complete the sowing in this area..." said the middle-aged man with brown hair wearing a yellow vest and rolled up cuffs, "Oh, yes, you are a new batch of farmers. According to the It is stipulated that you can receive a meal before officially working, and from then on, you will have a chance to eat once every day in the early morning, at noon, and when the light disappears completely."
The middle-aged Chafa man was literate. He held a pamphlet with common language written on it and read the regulations on the opposite side to the farmers.
He wondered why serfs were called peasants, and why every word in the pamphlet was so square and square, as if they were measured to the level of a hair.
As a freedman who was promoted exceptionally, the middle-aged Chafa quickly gave up on his weak curiosity and led these farmers to the Food Storage and Distribution Center to tell these people how to receive food.
After a while,
Discus held the food he received and walked out of the center.
The food he received was two loaves of bread and a box of cylindrical items with unknown characters written on them.
"Gulu~"
Discus heard the sound of swallowing from his side, and so on, his eyes were fixed on the two pieces of wheat-colored bread.
The rich baking aroma makes Discus salivate in his mouth.
He opened his mouth and took a bite.
Soft and soft, with the poor vocabulary in his mind, he didn’t know how to describe this feeling. He only knew that it tasted ten times, no, a hundred times, no, better than the black bread he had eaten before, which was dry and hard enough to be used as a weapon. , countless times!
Discus was very hungry, and he quickly swallowed the long loaf of bread, which was slightly longer than a palm.
But he couldn't bear to eat the remaining piece of bread... Even though he had been told that there would be three meals a day in the future, and all meals would be the same grade of food, Discus still couldn't bear to eat it.
‘How do you eat this kind of food? ’
Discus hid the long loaf of bread, and turned the cylindrical object in his hand over and over again. He didn't understand it or smell it, so he got closer and bit it. Although it wasn't hard, the outer shell didn't seem to be edible.
"Hey, that's not how you eat instant noodles."
A voice came from the side, and Discus looked over in shock. He saw a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, also holding a cylindrical object in his hand. He pointed, "Instant noodles?"
"Didn't you listen to their instructions?"
Discus recalled that when he had just received the food, the people from the "What Center" seemed to have said something. The middle-aged Chafa who led them seemed to have said it too, but at that time he was completely attracted by the smell of bread and could not hear clearly. What to talk about.
He followed the man with thick eyebrows and big eyes to a tall iron box near the 'center'.
"This is called a water dispenser... similar to the water dispenser in a nobleman's home.
The blue water outlet releases cold water, and the red water outlet releases hot water... "
"As for instant noodles," the man said, "the red ones are called braised beef noodles, and the purple ones are called pickled beef noodles. I heard that there are also mushroom stewed chicken noodles, braised beef noodles, shrimp and fish noodles..."
Discus's eyes widened as he cautiously reached out and touched the iron box that only noble men could use.
According to what the big man said, first tear off the lid of the instant noodles, tear off the seasonings and pour them in, then add boiling water...
"hiss-"
An indescribable deliciousness hits your nose.
Ignoring the hotness, I sucked and ate the discus, feeling that my soul had already floated into the sky.
It's so delicious, even if you die, it's worth it.
…
"The collection of telekinesis and popularity is increasing."
Tang Yu took a glance and said, "Next, it's time to train these city guards."
There are approximately more than 3,000 soldiers guarding the city of Geer, divided into the first city-defending army to the fourth city-defending army. They are the largest armed force in the city.
In addition, there are thugs and private soldiers raised by nobles. These are not many in number, but they are more elite.
In all, there were about five thousand combat-ready soldiers.
Tang Yu broke them up and reorganized them, and re-established the Geercheng Special Regiment, the first to third regiments.
There are only five hundred people in the special operations group, all of whom he has screened out to be loyal, characterful, and talented soldiers.
Buckley serves as the interim team leader and can be promoted to a regular position if he performs well in the future.
this day,
Buckley led five hundred special forces soldiers to a magnificent building.
At this time, they had replaced their original armors and put on dark combat uniforms. Brand-new weapons were hung on their waists or carried on their backs. The badges engraved with the World Tree were worn most conspicuously on their chests.
It is the pride of the directly affiliated legion.
"We will start a month-long special training here."
To be honest, this is Barkley's first time entering this training camp.
In the past, the so-called training of major legions only consisted of shouting slogans and waving weapons. When the outer city was destroyed and food became more scarce, regular training was canceled - after all, wielding a sword requires energy. To consume strength, you need to take in more food, and the original defending army did not have that much food supply.
However, the nobles were drunk and dreaming every day, using the food obtained from the common people to hold banquets.
Buckley had seen the true face of the nobles very early, but his deep-rooted thoughts made him unable to resist... He didn't have the ability to resist either.
Until those few people showed up, everything changed.
Sufficient and delicious food is supplied to every soldier in the special battle group. In addition, there are source crystals, training resource quotas, and equipment that is much more precious than that worn by the city lord's personal guards... Nowadays, even the training ground has .
Buckley raised his head. Although the sky was still gray and gray, he seemed to see the sun.
"Let's go."
All the soldiers in the special battle group are above the eighth level, and there is no weak one.
Tang Yu also used his authority to renovate this newly built training camp and did not build it according to the proportions divided by the system.
There are almost no primary training areas, with only a small testing area remaining. Most of the intermediate training areas are gravity rooms and training rooms. Each specially designed secret room can be used by two to three people. All members of the special operations group are pouring in. There is a surplus.
There is also a spiritual space that occupies almost half of the area, with countless access rooms lined up.
According to the city lord, the "spiritual space" is a virtual space similar to a fantasy world, where you can train to your heart's content without fear of death.
Although Buckley is an eleventh-level master and has experienced many battles, when it comes to life and death battles, he has not experienced many... People who often dance on the edge of life and death have either died or are dead.
He entered the "spiritual space", and several options appeared in the gray area.
"Personal Training", "Endless Mode", "Battle Space", "Trial Tower"...
Buckley's eyes fell on the description of the "battle space": you can play unlimited battles with other awakened people, private invitations, canyon battles, chaos, etc. (not limited to awakened people in this area).
Buckley's eyes suddenly lit up.
They were the first batch of people to enter the training camp in Geer City, and no one from the special operations group was his opponent.
However, the origins of the city owners are mysterious. Since such a magical building as the "training camp" has been built in Geer City, it is natural that it can be found in other places.
What about the strength of the city lord’s subordinates in other areas
Buckley suddenly became interested in comparison.
"In Geer City, I can be considered a first-tier awakened person. Even among the many areas controlled by the city lord, I shouldn't be that bad, right?"
He enters and chooses to match his opponent.
[The opponent matched successfully, Huang Wen, awakened to the eleventh level, winning rate 33%. ]
"The winning rate is only 33. It seems that the opponent in the first game should be relatively weak..."
(Ah, I have been coughing all day long and am extremely thin, and I feel the fear of being dominated by suffocation (?＿).)
