Chapter 7 Harvest, get the lumberyard
After Richard's excitement subsided, he frowned slightly when he saw the corpses of jackals scattered all over the ground.
Although gnolls are monsters in the wild, their blood and limbs, which can be dyed red and yellow, still have a great visual and psychological impact.
This was the first time he had seen such an intimate scene.
However, he did not go around, gritting his teeth and walked through the blood and body parts everywhere.
Sooner or later, this world will encounter larger-scale conflicts.
If he doesn't adapt as soon as possible, no one will protect him.
Step by step, after stepping out of the bloody area, Richard's face looked ugly, but his body had an inexplicable special temperament.
"Ding~ Do you want to occupy the resource point - the lumberyard (small)?"
Take a deep breath and nod.
confirm.
"The occupation is successful and you obtain a small resource point. You can send lumberjacks to cut wood here."
After hearing the system prompts, Richard, who looked slightly pale, felt a little better.
The mummy, bandaged and stained red, entered.
Turning around and looking around, trees five to six meters high covered the sky, and the air suddenly became cooler.
In the central area, there were seven or eight felled trees arranged in a messy manner.
There is a small wooden house next to it. When you open the door, you can see a dozen rusty axes placed inside.
"It's not bad. Although you can tell at a glance that it hasn't been used for a long time, production can start immediately as soon as you take over."
There are many types of resource points in "Age of Glory", some of which are primitive, such as a forest directly, so a lumberyard needs to be built.
But this is usually the case for large resource points. Small resource points can be mined directly. This seems to be something the designers specifically considered for novices.
Now it saves Richard a lot of trouble.
After wandering around the lumberyard and finding nothing else, he did not stay and was not in a hurry to go back and let someone cut the wood.
Take 14 mummies and head directly towards the resource point in the southeast.
These two resource points are very close to each other. After crossing the two sand dunes, you can see a rugged area.
Quarry
[Level]: Micro
【Reserves】: 10,000 units
【Maximum output】: 1400 units per week
[Capacity]: Minimum 2 people, full load 7 people.
Introduction: An ordinary resource point, which can be mined for stone after occupation.
Compared with small logging sites, the attributes of micro quarries have declined in all aspects.
The output is 1,400 units per week, which is 200 units per day.
Including the lumberyard, that's 500 units per day.
Richard felt a little better again.
Yes, good harvest.
After gaining experience with the jackals, he was not in a hurry to get closer and let the four mummies continue to explore the way.
Sure enough, after the mummy approached the quarry, a whir~ sound broke through the air.
More than twenty stones flew out of the quarry.
Bang~ The mummy couldn't dodge and was hit directly.
But the power of those stones is really small. The mummy took a wave of damage and it didn't matter.
"Ding~ Your army was attacked by a group of unknown enemies."
Richard's mouth twitched.
Throwing rocks?
Isn’t it a bit funny
"If all the mummies attack, if the enemy is not strong, leave a few alive."
It uses stones to hit people and is a field unit that guards micro-resource points.
Richard really couldn't imagine how powerful the other party could be.
Two mummies were left to guard him, and all the others were sent out.
A distance of tens of meters passed in the blink of an eye.
The power of the stones thrown by the enemy is small, and it is even more powerful if it hits the mummies, a type of necromancy unit that ignores pain.
"Ah!!"
After the mummy rushed into the quarry, there was a scream of fear, and calmness returned after a while.
"Ding~ The army you led defeated a group of long-armed peons and won a mini-battle. You gained 30 experience points."
Level: Level 1 (64/100)
Richard nodded with satisfaction, as long as he fought again, he would be able to level up.
Good harvest.
Heading towards the quarry.
Arriving at the center, a group of ugly beings with fearful faces squatted on the ground tremblingly.
There were seven or eight corpses placed around.
The mummy stood nearby indifferently.
These ugly creatures have four canine teeth protruding from the upper and lower corners of their mouths, and their faces are very ferocious.
The body shape is not much different from that of ordinary humans, but it has a pair of solid long arms that reach over the knees, making it look quite strong.
Long-Armed Peon
[Level]: Level 1
[Potential]: Normal 1 star
[Skill]: Patience (E level, able to withstand extremely difficult working conditions)
[Racial Talent]: When food is sufficient, physical strength can be quickly restored.
[Bond - Peons]: The number of long-armed peons is greater than 10, and the physical recovery speed is increased by 20%;
When the number of long-arm peons is greater than 20, the physical recovery speed is increased by 40% (activated).
[Introduction]: Master, don’t hit me, I’ll go to work right away.
Good guy.
Is there such a weird military unit?
No wonder they are called peons, these guys' talents are simply perfect for work.
After Richard appeared, he immediately attracted the attention of the hard workers. They were suddenly awakened when they saw the respectful posture of the mummy.
He immediately turned towards him, knelt down on the ground, put his head on the ground, and shouted excitedly.
"Great lord, we are willing to surrender to you, don't kill us"
"Ding~ A group of long-armed peons admire your strength after their defeat and want to take refuge with you. Do you accept it?"
Is it that simple?
Richard felt happy.
These guys are indeed suitable to be exploited, it is simply a welfare for capitalists.
accept.
"You got 30 long-armed peons."
"Ding~ Do you want to occupy the quarry?"
occupied.
"You are given a mini-quarry and can send miners to mine it."
Richard waved his hand and pointed at the first long-armed peon who knelt down and surrendered.
"I appoint you as the head of the quarry to manage the production of the quarry,
At the same time, 6 peons are assigned to you, and you have the right to manage other peons! ”
The long-armed peon was immediately overjoyed and fell to his knees.
"Great master, I will definitely produce more ore for you!"
"Ding~ You used words to inspire a long-armed peon, and the efficiency of mining ores under his jurisdiction increased by 20%. Duration - 3 days."
Is this possible?
Richard felt happy.
Good guy, can you send someone to encourage me every once in a while in the future?
After exploring the quarry and finding nothing else, Richard left seven hard workers to mine the stone.
At the same time, a hard worker was appointed as the person in charge of the lumber camp, and he led the other nine people to work in the lumber camp that Baobao had just occupied.
The appointed peons are also extremely excited and have the characteristic of increasing efficiency by 20%.
After such a round, not only the two resource points were occupied, but also all the workers were found.
And he didn't pay anything, and he had 13 more long-armed laborers in his hands.
These gains made Richard very motivated.
But after thinking about it, I felt a little troubled.
"Although hard work is useful, it adds 30 more mouths."
"There are only three days of food left and it will shrink again."
He just opened the market and took a look. There was no food for sale at all.
There are a few scattered items, but the prices are extremely outrageous, and they sell out quickly, making it difficult to buy them.
"It seems that logistics will become the key point restricting the development of the territory in the future."
Richard glanced at the mummies around him with lingering fear. Fortunately, they didn't need to consume food, otherwise they would really die.
The resource point in the northeast is a little further away, and it took about half an hour to get there from the quarry.
The speed of the 13 peons was too slow, which slowed down the marching speed.
These guys have a hard time walking in the sand.
After climbing over a low sand dune, Richard looked according to the marks on the map, and traces of the third resource point appeared in his sight.
iron ore.
The desert around the iron mine turned into dry and hard ground, and the oily black ores were piled up together, which was very conspicuous.
Iron Ore
【Grade】: Small
【Reserves】: 20,000 units
【Maximum output】: 2100 units per week
[Capacity]: Minimum 5 people, maximum 10 people
[Introduction]: Ordinary iron ore, miners can be sent into it to mine ore.
With the experience of the first two times, Richard waved his hand without hesitation.
Let 14 mummies press on.
At the same time, the remaining 13 peons around picked up the stones scattered on the ground.
This forms a formation with warriors in front and long-range attack power behind.
Although it is an extremely crude version.
When the bandaged mummy approached the iron mine, there was a harsh sound in the air.
More than 20 arrows pierced the sky, and burp directly penetrated the bandage and pierced the mummy's body.
"Ding~ You angered a group of desert thieves." (End of Chapter)
