Chapter 60 Hidden attributes: Popular support reaches 80
After leaving the gold mine, Richard continued to scan pictures with a bit of excitement.
The most direct reflection of the strength of a unit is its level and potential.
Level: Each time you upgrade to a level, you can gain a certain amount of power.
Potential: represents the amount of power you can gain after upgrading.
Hunting can not only obtain supplies, but also gain a lot of experience.
Leveling is an eternal melody.
It wasn't until dark that Richard returned to the territory with a somewhat tired body.
I'm a little tired, but I'm in a good mood.
Today I have been busy and gained a lot.
The first is to occupy a medium-sized gold mine with a weekly production of 14,000 units. Although it is not comparable to the harvest of hunting, it is a fixed income, which is still very good.
Secondly, the metal giant was hunted and killed in a head-on attack, which once again verified the army's combat effectiveness.
Let him have an intuitive understanding of the power in his hands.
Once again, an architectural drawing of a food workshop was obtained from the gold mine, which gave Twilight City another direction for its future development.
This is a building that adds heritage.
Finally, today’s map scan harvested a lot of prey and experience.
The Scorpion Warrior, Cursed Pharaoh, and Ax of the Dead have all reached level 4 and are approaching the level 5 threshold.
The system space is also filled with prey, and it can process at least two thousand units of food.
Plenty of gains.
Back at the territory, Karu was waiting for him as always.
But today the other party seems to be worried.
After asking, Richard found out that the water level in the wells in the territory had dropped sharply in the past two days, which made Karu very anxious.
"Sir Richard, the water output from the wells in the territory has become smaller today and may drop again in a few days"
Richard also had a headache. Water represented life in the desert, and lack of water would be fatal to the territory.
I have already accumulated 9 pieces of spring water fragments in my hand, and I still have one piece left to synthesize medium-sized spring water.
But these days, there has been no movement on the reward.
"I will solve this matter, in two days at most."
If the transaction is not completed tomorrow, the price will be increased and a reward will be offered.
As for money, just spend what you can, don’t be shabby.
Kalu was relieved after hearing this.
After leaving today's harvest by the well for the residents to handle, Richard returned to the lord's mansion.
After dinner, I opened the forum and took a look.
Only then did he realize that he had become the object of discussion by countless people, and he suddenly had a strange expression.
These idiots haven't changed their personalities no matter where they go. They are busy every day. Even though they are like this, they still have the energy to fight each other.
After taking a look at the bounty that he still hadn't sold, he went to search for the spring water fragments that were on sale.
He found that the other sellers of spring water fragments were all evil-minded guys, and their bids were more ruthless than the others.
After thinking about it, I directly added 30,000 more units of resources.
He still doesn't believe it. There are 5 desert horses and 30,000 units of resources, and no one has sold a spring water fragment.
Within a few minutes of hanging up, the private message suddenly rang.
"Ding~ Your reward has been sold. You lost 5 desert horses and obtained 1 spring water fragment."
The corners of Richard's mouth twitched. The transaction was completed so quickly. Why did he feel like he was losing money?
However, I felt relieved that I finally collected the fragments needed for the upgrade.
3 pieces of spring water fragments can be synthesized into 1-star treasure spring water, 10 pieces can be synthesized into 2-star treasure medium-sized spring water, and 30 pieces can be synthesized into 3-star treasure large spring water.
The water shortage problem in Twilight City has been dragged on for a long time, and it is not a problem.
According to the estimation of the spring water in Elaeagnus elegans, the medium-sized spring water can be used by three to five thousand people.
You won't have to worry about this for a long time in the future.
After the matter that had troubled him for a long time was solved, he felt better again and went to sleep happily.
It won't be too late to put it away tomorrow morning.
May 10th, early morning.
Richard was awakened by the noise coming from outside.
With some doubts, he walked out of the lord's mansion after briefly washing up.
Following the sound, we came to the area where the well was.
At this time, a large group of people were gathering at the well, discussing something with sad faces.
After seeing Richard, he woke up and quickly saluted.
"Good day, my lord."
However, the tone of his voice lacked the spirit of the past, like an eggplant beaten by frost.
Richard raised his eyebrows.
"What are you gathering here to discuss so early in the morning?"
A resident said with a sad face.
"Lord, the well suddenly ran out of water this morning for some unknown reason."
Out of water?
Richard was stunned.
He took a few steps forward and came to the well through the gap between the crowds.
Look down.
I saw a wooden barrel tied with a rope that was half wet, with drops of water falling from the side.
In the wooden barrel, the water only covered the bottom of the barrel, and it was still muddy water with countless silt and sand, making it impossible to drink.
"Last night Karu said he could last for a few days, but today the water supply was cut off"
Richard instantly thought of the system prompt on Monday. This week is a special week: drought week.
At that time, he also complained about the impact of drought on the desert.
Now even the water source has been cut off, why should we be so unreasonable?
"Is this the power of drought weeks? It's really amazing. We can't underestimate these special weeks in the future."
The surrounding residents started talking again at this time.
"Lord, what should we do?"
"Am I going to have to go to Elaeagnus elata forest to get water from now on?"
"Why did the well suddenly dry up?"
"It didn't suddenly dry up. I noticed yesterday that the water had become smaller."
"Let's dig a new well."
"."
A group of people were a little confused.
The drying up of wells dealt a major blow to them.
This is a desert, and water represents life. Nothing can be short of water.
Karu also arrived in a hurry at this time, and his wrinkled face like an old tree became even older after seeing this scene.
"Good day, my lord"
After saluting to Richard, he wanted to say something but didn't say anything in the end. The worry on his face almost overflowed.
Richard looked at everyone's gaze and smiled. Wasn't this a gunshot?
Yesterday, he bought the last fragment of spring water at a higher price.
"No need to be nervous, I have a solution."
This calm voice immediately silenced the crowd.
Leadership skills, strong charisma, and ability to easily convince subordinates.
Strong trust arose in the hearts of the residents, and it seemed that after he spoke, no difficulty could stop him.
Richard reached out and waved, and 10 crystal-clear fragments appeared in his hand, like broken crystals, but they would not cut his hand.
The spring water fragments are only one-third of the size of a palm, like broken crystals. They look crystal clear but will not cut your hands.
"Spring Fragments - 10 pieces can be consumed to synthesize medium-sized spring water. Do you want to synthesize it?"
confirm.
The moment he made his choice, the fragments of spring water in his hand suddenly burst into bright light.
The surrounding residents were stunned, what happened?
Those old residents who had witnessed the birth of Elaeagnus grove and spring water were now excited.
"I have seen this scene before. It is a gift from God. The lord actually still has it in his hands!"
When the crowd heard this, they were in an uproar.
"A gift from God?"
"Is that a treasure given by the gods?! Gods, I never thought I would have the chance to see such a treasure."
"."
They all opened their eyes wide, wanting to see what the legendary god-given thing was like.
The light gradually condensed in Richard's hands, and the spring water fragments merged into a crystal ball that exuded a cool atmosphere.
In the middle of the crystal ball, there is a gurgling spring.
Full of unique atmosphere.
Richard held the crystal in his hand and walked towards the well.
Ta Ta~ Ta Ta~
The crisp sound of leather boots stepping on the floor seemed to hit everyone's heart at this moment.
When he came to the well water, he turned his hand over.
The crystal ball fell directly into the well.
ah!
The crowd subconsciously exclaimed.
Thump~
There was a sound of stones hitting the water.
Afterwards, the situation returned to calm.
Richard glanced at the crowd.
"Solved."
After saying no nonsense, he turned around and left.
The residents subconsciously separated their left and right sides and looked at the silent wells with a somewhat stunned look on their faces.
Why is there no movement in the God-given thing?
The lord just left like this?
Just when they were filled with confusion.
Bang~
From the well that had just dried up, a water column of more than ten meters high suddenly spurted out.
After the clear water rose to the top, it fell again.
All the clothes of the surrounding residents were soaked.
But at this time, no one avoided or felt unhappy.
Looking at the water splashing all over the sky, endless joy arose in my heart.
"Hahahaha!! There is water!!!"
In great sorrow and joy, everyone started running to the well as if they were crazy.
After the high water column fell, the seemingly endless spring water gurgled out of the well.
After being depressed, people laughed and splashed water on their friends around them to release their fear and uneasiness.
Under the first ray of sunshine in the morning, there was unprecedented laughter.
Water in the desert is hope, life, and everything.
People who have not experienced desert drought will never be able to fully understand the preciousness of water.
Lord, you have once again given life to this land, hope and a future.
After a long time, the crowd, exhausted from the fight, fell silent.
A young man turned his head and looked in the direction Richard left, speechless for a long time.
Finally, he slowly raised his chest and bent down to salute in the direction where Richard's figure had long since disappeared.
This scene touched countless residents.
At this moment, everyone held their chests and saluted to the empty path with burning eyes.
"Ding~ Your actions have conquered the residents of Twilight City, and the leadership upgrade progress has been increased by 50%."
"Ding~ The hidden attributes of Twilight City: when the popular support reaches 80, you will get the characteristic: a stable place.
A stable place: the people are united, the happiness is high, the attraction to refugees is increased by 30%, and there is a higher probability of attracting high-level talents or low-level heroes to seek refuge. "(End of Chapter)
