Clash of Lords: Civilization Game Comes to Reality

The white fog surrounding the territory began to dissipate, and the spectacular scene seemed to be a flood, revealing the dim sky outside the fog. Breezes blew from south to north, and there was a faint sound of rising and falling tides echoing in the ears.

On the coast, at the edge of the ocean, there was a flood plain. It would not appear on a small island. He looked to the south, where there was a sunset glow reflected by the sea and sky, and seabirds took off and landed in the far distance. Looking to the north, under the clouds, there were continuous hills and fields with deep green.

It has the conditions to become a developed city.

Maybe he can support the entire city by making it a tourist city and watching the tides in the future.

The light blue-white fog flowed out from his palm, surrounded his fingertips and condensed into an unstable sphere in the palm.

‘Blood purification level 2, +10% experience growth, +5% physical limit, -5% physical decay. ’

‘Energy potential awakened population: +5% production efficiency. Psychic energy, psionic energy, spell talent, their branches are ever-changing, and we have found the original source of evolution, which we call source energy. ’

Control these source energies to launch forward.

The unstable sphere turned into a breeze and disappeared in the wind before it left the hand.

The killing power is close to zero.

It is leading in handsomeness.

This awakening is not for all. In the initial stage, just like spells and talismans, only a few people have the qualifications to use this energy. Most people just carry this talent until they die without developing it. This kind of magic manifests the characteristics of the choice of extreme strengthening of individuals, or gradually spreading the spell talent to all.

The former is quick to take effect, but the marginal effect is very serious. The more it develops, the lower the efficiency of converting resources into combat power. The latter is slow to take effect, but its strength lies in the fact that after the whole nation is deployed, there will be a large number of excellent populations with magic talents, winning by quantity.

The deformed structure caused by extreme strengthening of individuals will eventually slow down the development of the territory.

The only thing that is certain is that the lord will definitely get an increase in potential awakening. There are countless lords who rely on their physical fitness several times higher to charge into the enemy camp. They drain the resources of the territory to support themselves and live a comfortable life as an emperor in the territory.

They are all stuck at the threshold of the second industrial revolution and cannot move forward.

The awakening of the source essence given by blood purification can be used to release spells and draw talismans, which is a versatile type of characteristic. It is very embarrassing that he is the only one in the territory who knows that the awakening of the source essence talent is known, and the three hero units under him have no performance at all, and the characteristics of the status bar have not changed.

Taking his attention away from the source energy, he had been playing with it for almost an hour, turning it into various shapes in his hands. Ji Lin wanted to see how the blueprints sold in the system store were.

In his previous life, he was not specialized in the human race. The buildings of different races could not be said to be worlds apart, but at least they could be said to be poles apart.

‘Because you have the characteristics of the fortress, the blueprints are unlocked for you for free: wall, watchtower’

‘Wall: 40 gold ore, build a wall 5 meters high, 1 meter wide, and 10 meters long, and develop new blueprints based on this blueprint’

‘Watchtower: 120 wood, a 25-meter-high wooden watchtower, providing an unobstructed 5-kilometer field of vision, and develop new blueprints based on this blueprint. ’

As soon as he opened the blueprint store, a prompt from the system popped up in front of him.

Unlock two blueprints that are not expensive for him, saving a thousand gold mines to buy blueprints.

Unlike the buildings in the Classical Age, the Imperial Age had special research facilities to improve and develop the buildings. The watchtowers could be upgraded into special defense towers based on the various existing long-range arms, giving a high degree of freedom. The same is true for the city walls and various buildings.

There are six blueprints left in the blueprint store, namely: plantation, restaurant, post station, residence (Imperial Age), tailor shop, and blacksmith shop.

The price of each blueprint is a thousand gold mines.

He already has the shooting range and academy, which will not appear in the blueprint store.

He was greedy and had no money left.

After feasting his eyes, he placed a watchtower at each corner of the regular hexagonal structure of the territory, spending a total of 720 units of wood. These six watchtowers can bring the surrounding 5 kilometers under his surveillance to prevent any wild monsters that suddenly start to wander around from approaching the territory.

It was another case of building from scratch.

‘Please note that this time we will only provide supplies equal to the current population. Please check them carefully. The population will arrive within 1-3 standard days.’

There are still population supplies coming. Ji Lin cheered up a little. People mean production capacity. He is not short of jobs, but he is really short of people.

The price of the population in the trading market is now ridiculously high. A lowest-level golem requires 20 gold mines, and a group of ratmen who are slightly smarter than golems can ask for 40 gold. Only people marked as slaves can be sold in the market.

He gave up the desire to continue watching after taking a look. This is not selling slaves, this is robbery!

Ji Lin switched to the character interface to check the population limit of the territory.

The population limit was directly raised to 12,800 people. The 910 people he currently has only accounted for a fraction of the huge population limit of 12,800 people.

If the system still supplies 25% of the population as before, 12,800 people would be 3,200 people, and no lord could bear it.

Looking at the 900 people who were about to come, Ji Lin looked at his empty resources.

Sigh.

In the future, the territory of 1,800 people will finally look like a normal town. With the dual advantages of the ocean and the river, he has occupied an absolute geographical advantage. After building a post station, he can visit other city-states directly, or go to other NPC indigenous countries to learn.

There will be other local NPC caravans arriving here through the post station to trade with them, or come to them. These natives are not necessarily good people. He has seen a large number of cases where lords were usurped by natives. Some lords could not bear the price offered by other countries and were willing to co-govern the territory with them.

Until the occurrence of "expulsion", that was an event in the later period. The system will erase the identities of a large number of lords who have been usurped, or the lords who have completely transferred their rights, and re-promote the real power holders of those territories to become new lords.

The last sentence they received was "unqualified", an evaluation that even those lords who lived a dissolute life in the low era did not receive.

As for those guys who were expelled from the status of lords, maybe it was a good thing for them?

He didn't know, he died in a dispatch mission soon after that incident, and he didn't have time to witness the changes.

It was too far away from him, and he didn't want to think about it.

Develop the territory.

Ji Lin hummed a little song that he didn't understand.

The wheat in the farmland has grown to the height of an adult's arm, like a green rope rising from the ground. In another month or ten days, when it bears fruit, it will be another harvest. These crops can earn a lot of resources in the field.

There are very few territories that can be self-sufficient in food, and even fewer territories that can feed themselves after the sudden increase in population. There are very few people like him who have rich green fields and export food and wood in exchange for gold and iron.

Most people are still struggling with the operation of the territory.
