This sea lord is a bit strong

Chapter 18 Poverty, Population Problems
The citizens showed great surprise when Ji Chen suddenly came back with a beautiful girl with a pair of fins in her ears.

How could a living person suddenly appear on this isolated and uninhabited island?
After knowing that Alice is actually a siren, or a hero.

The performance was even more shocked.

Because they have all heard that there is a beautiful sea monster with an extremely beautiful singing voice in the ocean.

They look like human beings, and they are extremely beautiful. They often lure passing ships to hit the rocks with their songs, causing the ships to sink.

And that sea monster is called a siren.

The lord was able to subdue a legendary siren?
I felt even more awe and respect towards Ji Chen in my heart.

Although they were shocked by Alice.

But to be able to subdue such a siren, it is obvious that the lord is even more powerful.

Now the citizens have become morning blows one by one.

For any good deeds, the credit is all attributed to him, and he is frantically touted.

Today's cooking is delicious.

——This is the credit of the lord, praise your lord!
The way to work was very safe, and the journey was safe and sound.

——This is brought by adults!Praise my lord!
Picked up a Kells silver coin from the beach today!

——The adults must be protecting us!Praise my lord!

The list goes on and on.

Unknowingly, the popularity of the territory has increased to 70 points, increasing the labor efficiency by an additional 20%.

The efficiency and enthusiasm of work are very good!
Ji Chen handed over all the baskets of sea fish he caught to the local residents, and immediately ordered the tailor to sew a set of women's clothes for Alice.

After Alice's tail turned into legs, she had a pair of bare feet, no shoes to wear, and although the thick shiny film on her body could serve as a cover, it always looked a little weird on land.

Like some high-end sexy clothing.

So it is more appropriate to let her wear human clothes.

Let Alice get used to walking on two legs first, and Ji Chen clicked on the arm technology tree.

A new interface for the hero tech tree appears above.

Click in and see Alice's technology tree.

【Siren: Alice (Hero)】

[Unlock Node A-1]: Song of Temptation (blue skill → purple skill) [requires consumption of 3200 units of wood, 3200 units of clay, and 800 units of mithril]
[Unlock Node B-1]: Song of War (blue skill → purple skill) [need to consume 3200 units of fiber, 3200 units of clay, and 800 units of mithril]
[Unlock Node C-1]: Ocean Noble (Green Skill → Blue Skill) [1600 units of crude iron and 400 units of mithril are required]
[Unlock Node D-1]: Body of the Siren (new green skill) [needs to consume 800 units of crude iron]
[Unlock Node E-1]: Siren Bloodline (weakened/enhanced unit characteristics) [need to consume 1600 units of crystal, 1600 units of mithril]
[After unlocking nodes A-1, B-1, C-1, C-2, D-1, E-1, you can advance to a purple rare hero]

Seeing the string of resource numbers needed to unlock the node, the corners of his mouth twitched wildly.

Even to unlock a green skill, you need to start with 800 units of crude iron, not to mention other resources that cost thousands of resources, and you need rare Mithril resources.

You are indeed a hero!

Now he feels like he has only one word.

poverty!
But the words in the bottom column made him nod his head knowingly.

It turns out that the next level of the blue excellent level is the purple rare level, so Alice's potential, the red inheritance level is obviously higher than the purple rare level.

Seeing Alice being included in the branch's technology tree, Ji Chen's mind became active.

Since the level of even heroes can be increased, can the troop technology tree increase the upper limit of potential of heroes after reaching the upper limit of potential in the future?
Thinking of this conjecture, I couldn't help being slightly excited.

The arm technology tree is really an unscrupulous cheat!
"My lord, did you think of anything happy?"

When I came back to my senses, I saw Alice staggering towards the front.

She tilted her head cutely, her eyes full of curiosity.

Ji Chen supported her with one hand, and stroked her silver hair with a light smile.

Looking at Alice's sapphire-like eyes, I suddenly wondered why it wasn't red?

The thought just flashed by.

"It's okay, you stay in the territory first, I'll go out for a while."

As he said that, he called out to Willus and asked him to send two female leaders to help Alice get used to walking on two feet.

Then he led the murlocs out of the territory.

Go to the crude iron mine resource point.

More than ten minutes later, Ji Chen came to the mine entrance of the mine and heard clanging sounds coming from inside.

Accompanied by the sound of cave miners shouting and singing.

"Hey! If you don't work hard today, you will eat lizards tomorrow!"

"Hey! Work hard today and eat sea fish tomorrow!"

"Who is it that gives us food?"

"Great lord!"

"Who is protecting us?"

"My lord of glory!"

"For the lord! We must work harder to mine!"

"Yo hey yo!"

Hearing the sound of ghosts crying and howling wolves coming from inside, there was a black line on his face.

What ghost song is this?
Ji Chen shook his head, not disturbing their work.

Although force and violence were used to bring the cave miners into submission, their loyalty seems to be good.

Let's add some meat to them for tonight's meal.

He then went to the clay mines.

Likewise, four cave miners and some of the landmen are digging clay.

But compared to the 14 full-sized miniature rough iron mines, the small clay mines are not full.

Only half of the 42 positions are occupied, that is, only 21 laborers are working, so the production capacity is only half.

The rest of the people are either making tools and clothes, or building houses, or making fishing boats. There is really no manpower to spare.

Willus has done his best to deploy manpower.

But it's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice, and no amount of deployment can solve the current situation of extreme shortage of manpower.

This is the biggest flaw currently exposed in the territory.

Ji Chen also had a headache for a while, but there was nothing he could do.

His own territory is on the island, surrounded by a vast ocean.

The more common ways for other players to increase the population, such as absorbing refugees who are automatically sent to the door, hiring residents in nearby aboriginal gathering places, etc.

Neither will work here.

All he can do now is to improve the strength of his arms, explore the wilderness, vigorously build the shipbuilding industry, and build ships that can cross the ocean as soon as possible.

There is only one step at a time.

Maybe one day a ship full of people will be shipwrecked and come to this island?

Dreams should still be there.

After inspecting the three resource points, he led the murlocs around the territory and started patrolling.

Drive away the nearby wild beasts and clear the approaching wild monsters.

After killing all the way, he left the vicinity of the territory without knowing it, went deep into the jungle, and came to the vicinity of the gray stone forest.

This was one of the three places I saw at the time, three or four kilometers away from the territory.

Pushing aside the dense vegetation, Ji Chen looked outside.

Irregular gray stone pillars more than ten meters high stand in a vast shallow water.

Small trees and weeds grow in the cracks of the stone pillars, and moss and vines grow on them.

In the center of this shallow stone forest, there is a tidal flat in the middle of the lake, on which stands a strange stone building.

Looking at the building, Ji Chen pondered for a moment, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

If he remembered correctly, that building was supposed to be a neutral recruitment camp.

As mentioned in the game data, the neutral recruitment camp is a kind of recruiting camp that randomly appears in the wild and cannot be moved.

But as long as you defeat the guardian unit, you can occupy it and recruit powerful units from it.

He didn't expect that there was one in this place!
The angle of view turns slightly.

A box with dots of stars lying quietly in front of a rock in the middle of the lake.

There is even a treasure chest! ?

Good things come in pairs!
He is bound to win this place!
Ji Chen suppressed the excitement in his heart, and looked at the guardian troops inhabiting around the tidal flat in the middle of the lake.
