Champoo

[ All the quest to upgrade your town has been met…]

[Do you wish to upgrade your town to town-II…?]

Aarv immediately clicked on the yes option…

Almost immediately,

[ Congratulations to player Aarv for upgrading their town to town-II ]

[ You have unlocked new features

Talent Pool

Territory Reputation

]

Aarv immediately checked the descriptions for these two features.

[ Feature name: Talent Pool (Level 1)

Description: Able to increase the rank of any NPC character. The higher the rank, the more time it will take to increase the rank of the NPC character.

Current status: Not built. (Requires a lake with clean water…) ]

The talent pool was a special building that unlocked when a player's territory reached town-II. It allowed players to increase the rank of their NPC special talents. The main catch was that when a character was sent to the Talent Pool it will be unable to leave the talent pool unless the lord cancels their rank upgrade. This way the game balanced out the possibility of players constantly upgrading a single character.

After reading the description, Aarv ordered the construction department to build the Talent Pool. he knew that this building will become a major structure for his territory.

[ Feature name: Territory Reputation

Description: Reputation increases the chances of NPC characters visiting your territory. The higher the reputation is, the higher ranking characters will visit your territory.

Currunt reputation: 100 +500 (Boron)

]

The second feature was a bit tricky. It encouraged players to complete more quests to increase their reputation value resulting in more people visiting their territory. The tricky part was that it was not always a positive value…

Failing any task resulted in players getting negative reputation points. Once the territory's reputation reaches negative, the player will be declared as 'unqualified' and his/her territory will cease to exist.

Aarv could already imagine a lot of lords getting their territories destroyed because of this negative reputation. As he was thinking of ways to improve his reputation and attract more talents, he heard a system message…

[ Congratulations Player Aarv for being the first lord to upgrade their territory in the entire world…]

[ Do you wish the system to include your real name for the announcement…?]

As much as Aarv liked to show his achievements, he still decided to stay low and rejected the system's suggestion.

Immediately a new announcement came from the system.

[

Congratulations to Player XXX for being the first lord in India to upgrade their town…

Rewards: +100 reputation points, 1,000 gold coins, F rank blueprint…

]

[

Congratulations to Player XXX for being the first lord in the world to upgrade their town…

Rewards: +500 reputation points, 1,500 gold coins, A hidden building…

]

After the announcement was made, the whole world shook. This was just the second day after the game was announced and someone already upgraded their territory.

The game forums especially in India were exploding with congratulatory messages.

"Congratulations… "

"Yeah congratulations for making all of us proud…'

All the normal adventure game mode players were happy that someone from India took the first lead in upgrading their territory.

While ordinary people were happy, the same could not be said for the lord game mode players. They were just starting to consider upgrading their territory. Some haven't even made plans for an upgrade and someone already upgraded their territory…?

"Find out who is it…"

Inside a castle in England, a blonde man asked his butler. He had a crest with a two-headed eagle on his chest. That was the symbol of the Roswell family, one of the most prominent families in England.

"As your wish my liege…" said the butler as he left the room.

The same things happened all over the world. Whether it was the Smith family in the US or the Nangong family in China, all the families ordered an investigation. There was a single question on everyone's mind,

"How did that player do it..?"

Their territory only had about 50-60 people but they refused to believe that someone recruited 1,000 people in their territory.

Suddenly, the congratulatory messages on forums got lost in different types of messages. Messages that accused the lord of cheating inside the game.

"That lord player has definitely cheated…"

"I think the player cheated … please respond @peace online management team"

"Ban him… He is a cheater…"

---

Unaware of what was happening on the forums, Aarv focused on his rewards instead. While upgrading his territory, he got a lot of good things. That was an advantage of being the first person to upgrade their town.

He clicked on the F-ranked blueprint. He got the item description,

[

Reward name: Random F-ranked blueprint…

Description: extracts a random F-ranked blueprint from the country's history.

Click to confirm random extraction…

]

Aarv immediately clicked on the extract button and a wheel appeared in front of him displaying all the F ranked blueprints.

Finally, the needle stopped on a certain blueprint called Champoo.

If Aarv remembered correctly, the Shampoo we use today was first invented in India. It was originally called Champoo (meaning head massage).

'This is cool'

Aarv thought as he looked at the blueprints in his hands. It included the secret formula to make champoo from different herbs and medicines. It also included a full production method of making champoo.

Champoo was one of the products that the British took from India and sold at a higher price around the world. Before the spread of champoo, all people around the world did not have any method to wash or groom their hair while our saints discovered hair grooming methods 5,000 years ago inside the book called Aatharv Veda... one of the four Vedas.

He calmly contacted the research department. He wanted to know if the product can be mass-produced or not. He knew that if he was able to mass-produce such items, then it would become very easy for him to make money.
