Chapter 65: Chapter 64: The Foundation of His Rise
In no ti at all.
The stewards responsible for Yellow Sand City were all summoned.
Lin You stood on the steps, gazing at the ragged yet upright figures below, feeling a pang of sympathy in his heart.
Even the stewards live so miserably, it’s needless to say anything about the people below.
They’re probably struggling to even have enough to eat.
So he didn’t waste any more ti and said loudly:
"From today onward, I, Lin You, am the Lord here!"
"I’ve called you all here today, not only to announce this, but also to give you an important task: redo the statistics of the areas you’re responsible for."
"Count the population and all information within the city, then summarize and hand it over to —everything, can it be done by tomorrow nightfall?"
"Yes!"
The people below responded excitedly.
During their journey here, they had already heard the news that the Lord would be staying.
Upon hearing Lin You’s first task, they imdiately blushed, vowing to complete it with perfection.
Lin You on the steps nodded, quite pleased with their reaction.
After saying a few encouraging words, he dismissed them, and with Xue Changgui’s lead, walked towards outside the city.
Initially, Lin You didn’t want Xue Changgui to follow him, considering he was already so old.
But no matter what Lin You said, he insisted on coming along, claiming he wanted to serve by Lin You’s side.
No choice, Lin You could only let him.
Soon.
The group, watched by the citizens on the street, grandly arrived at a vast vacant land outside the city.
"Lord, this is the place where the previous Lord relocated the territory."
Xue Changgui turned back to look at Lin You.
"Alright, all of you move away, let
relocate the territory here."
Lin You took out the previous crystal from his personal space.
Seeing this, Xue Changgui and the others hurriedly retreated, moving far away.
[Detected matching territory without an owner. Shall territory migration be conducted?]
The voice in the mind sounded again.
Lin You took a deep breath and chose "Yes".
In an instant, the crystal radiated brilliantly and floated gently into the air.
Under the crystal’s illumination, the space suddenly distorted, seeming to overlap with another plane.
Lin You’s territory, in the midst of distortion, gradually appeared.
The towering Tree of Life imdiately attracted the attention of citizens in the city streets, who exclaid endlessly.
"Look! Such a huge tree!"
"Is this the Lord’s territory? So magnificent!"
"What is that plant? How can there be such gigantic vines!?"
"Look at the top, it seems like there are dragons flying in the sky!"
The ergence of Lin You’s territory indeed caused a sensation.
Even those staying at ho ran to the streets to witness this spectacular scene.
This was Yellow Sand City’s first ti seeing so many plants growing, a rare sight causing everyone to shout.
What surprised Lin You was that the choice of this territory location was very clever.
It was precisely in a place surrounded by mountains on two sides, perfectly blocking the pervasive sandstorm, unaffected by the wind and sand.
At the mont territory migration succeeded, several notifications sounded again in the mind.
[Territory binding succeeded. Current territory: Yellow Sand City]
[You can view current territory situation through territory information.]
Upon hearing the prompt, Lin You asked Xue Changgui and others to return and wait.
Then eagerly walked into the territory.
Opening the territory information, he indeed found many added functions.
[Territory Na: Tree of Life]
[Territory Level: Tier Six (0/500)]
[Territory Durability: 2250/2250]
[Recruit Species: Plant Type]
[Recruitnt Number: 13/120]
[Territory Introduction: The Lord’s fundantal survival base, possessing various functions, if territory core is destroyed, the Lord will perish.]
[Upgrade Requirents: Wood (3000/3000) Stone (6734/3000), Iron Ore (210/1500), Copper Ore (30/1500), Magic Energy (3046/5000), Tier Six Territory Essence (0/10)]
[Note: Plant Type territory traits, self-supplying wood.]
[Subordinate Territory: Yellow Sand City]
...
[World Channel][Region Channel][Ranking][Faith][Skills][Citizens][Buildings][Resources][Managent]
...
Besides the world channel and region channel, seven functions were added.
Richly more than before.
Lin You opened the world channel, unexpectedly finding it unlocked, with many ssages appearing, all bearing the "Holy Radiance Kingdom" suffix.
Lin You had heard this from Xue Changgui; the Great Wilderness Kingdom he belonged to was one of the Ten Great Dukedoms under this Holy Radiance Kingdom.
And the region channel’s suffix had changed to "Great Wilderness Kingdom".
Lin You tested it, discovering that sending ssages in these two channels required paynt!
World channel costs one thousand magic energy per ssage, region channel one hundred magic energy, worse than black market prices, hence much fewer ssages than expected.
This chat channel must be making these kingdoms and duchies rich.
"This is too exploitative..."
Lin You couldn’t help but complain.
Simultaneously feeling imnsely envious.
Even region channel; if a hundred people send ssages daily, that’s ten thousand magic energy!
That’s a full ten thousand magic energy, which he earns by hunting demons painstakingly for days, while others just move their fingers.
Truly frustrating when compared to others.
After closing the chat channel, Lin You proceeded to check other functions, gaining a rough understanding.
For instance, [Citizens] is used to manage and count the population within the territory, [Buildings] is for constructing territory buildings, [Resources] is for compiling all materials in the territory.
And this territory also includes his current subordinate territory, Yellow Sand City.
These were all fine.
What Lin You cared most about was the newly erged Power of Faith.
A string of numbers added behind the territory level.
[Faith: Provided by citizens, the more prosperous the territory, the more citizens, the stronger the sense of belonging, the more Power of Faith provided, the stronger the Lord’s own strength becos.]
[Required for unlocking so functions; necessary for upgrading territories above Tier Six.]
"This..."
After reading the introduction, Lin You was stunned.
The increase in Power of Faith can actually enhance his strength!?
This slightly excited him.
But upon seeing the conditions to obtain Power of Faith, he imdiately deflated.
His current lack is precisely territory prosperity and citizens.
Although he doesn’t know how long it takes to accumulate the 500 points of Power of Faith required for Tier Seven upgrade, it definitely won’t be easy.
Indeed...
He now really needs to build up this subordinate territory.
Fortunately, this doesn’t deviate from his original intent.
After all, he initially planned to develop Yellow Sand City; Power of Faith rely added a goal.
And Yellow Sand City.
Will beco his first stepping stone upon descending to the Primordial Continent!
Thinking of this.
Lin You’s expression instantly turned serious.
After checking each function briefly, he opened the recruitnt screen.
He rembered clearly; when he first teleported here, the system ntioned "Species Token base type limit unlocked".
Limit unlocked!
This ans his base species type for mutation has expanded! No longer limited to only the previous types!
This is definitely great news for him with Mutated Ability.
If it were soone else, they might need to find species tokens everywhere to unlock new species.
But he doesn’t need to.
Just spending magic energy on mutation can directly obtain these newly unlocked species!
This is his reliance to rise rapidly!
