Her Territory Buildings seem abnormal!

Her 'dilapidated thatched cottage' has actually a total of four rooms: a bedroom, a toilet, a living room, and a kitchen. In the bedroom, there was a thin folding screen on the right of the kang bed, while on its left was a small cupboard and clothes rack near a window.

The window was half a meter in width and length, and Li Chunhua could see her barren territory from here as well as the cliff.

The kitchen had a small stove, a small table, and two mahogany single chairs. The living room is simple, just one wooden couch with its back pressed against the wall, the front facing the entrance, and the floating territory crystal, while the toilet is quite different from the latrine she knew. It has a big stone bowl with a hole in the center, and no matter how she pulled it out, it wouldn't budge and remained attached to the ground.

How is she going to clean that up if she can't throw out the content?

She practiced grain liberation in the previous world, but in this game world, her body still excretes filth even with her cultivation remaining.

Should she dig a hole somewhere else instead?

Building a toilet is easy, but what if something drilled from the ground and sprang while she was doing her 'business'? That is frightening!

Please no, her little heart can't take it, and she might be the first one to die in the game world in such an embarrassing manner!

Put that matter aside, her house should have some array for space folding because it's much bigger than it looks outside.

And most importantly, her house had a high upper health limit!

"Not only my fence has five times the durability, but even the 'dilapidated thatched cottage' has five times the properties. Good thing I didn't miss out on this reward. I wonder how much change will occur after upgrading again. Will there be supplementary special facilities as well? Oh! I forgot. I need to choose two facilities to build right now."

Li Chunhua spared a few seconds of her time to admire the HP of [2500/2500] displayed by the system prompt on top of the territory crystal that was floating in the center of her house, providing the light before she touched the crystal. A notification in pulsating golden fonts popped up.

With her agility, catching up with Crow-mouth isn't a problem. She might as well check the requirements for territory facilities first since she'll be going down the mountain. After beating Crowmouth, she will use the time to collect the necessary materials. The land she chose was on top of the mountain, easy to defend, and difficult to attack. Since players will annex those on the foot of the mountain first, very few will venture deep into the first in the early stages.

The ones she needed to watch out for were the teams and high-tier monsters, but considering the system had a level cap on the monster tide and only those from levels 0–5 would attack after the first week passed, she was safe for a moment but still couldn't completely lower her guard since the events she read in the book might be different from reality or deviate from the original plot.

She needs preparation and hoards a lot of material to achieve her salted fish dream.

[Congratulations on establishing your territory!

The player can pick two (2) basic facilities among the territory buildings listed below.

Due to the player's territory being granted special privileges, the player will have two additional chances.

Basic Hut Residence

>Basic Restaurant

>Basic Smithy

>Basic Quarry

>Basic Arrow Tower

>Basic Farm

>Basic Barracks

>Basic…]

There were dozens of basic facilities listed, and some are redundant. Li Chunhua remembered the contents of the system update in an hour.

Honestly, she didn't want to take in any natives in this world, but one of the requirements for upgrading the territory in the future will be population, making her helpless.

After the upgrade, a summoning gate would appear behind the thatched cottage, and players would have ten weekly chances to summon natives of the world with offerings ranging from food to copper coins.

The summoned natives will have the opportunity to level up as well, and part of their experience will be fed back to the landowner.

Besides this, summons has a grading system from 1 to 5 stars. The greater the luck you possessed and the number of offerings, the greater the chance to summon high-star-graded natives. If you're lucky enough, you might even acquire a native profession, such as a mage, a blacksmith, an archer, an assassin, etc. If your luck is black as soot, then there is a chance the summoning will fail or you will be left with a one-star native with stats lower than you.

"I hope it's someone who knows how to cook." Li Chunhua mumbled excitedly and began to choose what to build. Basic Hut Residence is a must because it has the special effect of recovering mana and HP, as well as eliminating status ailments such as fatigue.

She remembered her kang bed's properties, and the smile on her face deepened.

[Special Territory's Kang Bed

° Grade: Gold

° Special Effects: Helps players recover 10 HP and 10 Mana per ten minutes of rest.]

It's Gold Grade!

If it were any other kang bed, the recoverable amount would only be 2 per ten minutes, but hers was five times more.

A truly heaven-sent gift! This enables her to speed up her hoarding in the early stage!

There are a lot of players who didn't choose Basic Hut Residence in the past because they thought it was useless since they already had a thatched cottage on their own.

The popular choices were barracks and an arrow tower, followed by Smithy. Basically, defense facilities were the topmost priority. She couldn't call their decisions foolish because the system had delayed disseminating information.

After thinking for a while, she decided to do some good deeds and sent some advice on the global chat. Whether they heed her advice or not depends on them. This is the extent of what she could do. As for those who wanted to pry off information from her and the system...He he.

She was already offended when someone brought her here.

Unbeknownst to her, her information saved millions of lives in the first monster wave. The fire that had subsided on the global stage once again soared with Little Brother Baozi's appearance and her prophetic words. Those who were in the middle of choosing territory buildings retrieved their fingers tremblingly and thanked their luck for checking the chat before tapping the option screen box.

[Baozi]: The system update contents are: (1) a summoning portal will appear, enabling players to summon natives; (2) a basic Hut residence is a must; (3) farms could produce spiritual food with attribute-boosting properties...

[Neigh Neigh]: Are my eyes playing with me? I saw the heavens split, and a huge golden scroll rolled from the sky to my feet, revealing a heavenly mandate!

[Yu Yu]: I didn't see the sky that you mention, but I saw heavenly fairies with their silky robes floating and whispering in my ears with their heavenly voices.

[#789]: Little Brother Baozi! Is this really true? You're not lying, are you? I already picked Arrow Tower, and there's only one more chance left. Little Brother Baozi could've posted it earlier. So selfish!

[Director Niu]: My fingers were just inches from the Arrow Tower option. Fortunately, I decided to log in the global chat again. Hey, upstairs, it's not Little Brother Baozi's responsibility to share the information. He could've kept it a secret, but he did not. Little Bother is already kind.

[#789]: If he's really kind, he would have posted the message right after the system sent territory crystal!

[Beef Noodles]: Brother Niu, someone is just being a bitter gourd. Leave him be.

[I don't have a beard]: I say, who's willing to temporarily cooperate with me? You choose the farm, and I choose Smithy.

[You have a bushy beard]: I sent you a DM.

[I don't have a beard]: "..." Another one, please!

[Little Kitty]: Little Brother Baozi, Xia Xia, thank you a lot! *flying kiss*

[Big Brother knows it all]: Brother thanks Xia Xia for the gift. *flying kiss*

[Little Kitty]: Get out!

Li Chunhua had closed the tab after she posted the message and didn't know what was happening in the global chat. She was busy reading the required materials for the territory building she chose.

[Basic Hut Residence Blueprint

° Grade: Gold

° Capacity: 5–10 occupants

° Necessary Materials: 15 units of wood, 5 units of lime stones, 1 metal block, 200 copper coins]

[Basic Quarry/Mine

° Grade: Gold

° Capacity: 10–20 workers

° Production per day (average production in parenthesis): 50 metal blocks (40%), 50 units of lime stones (50%), 20 units of other kinds of ores (9%), 10 units of rare gems (1%).

° Necessary Materials: 20 units of wood, 15 units of lime stones, 5 units of metal block, 500 copper coins]

Something is wrong! Her basic hut residence blueprint needs limestone and metal blocks. And it has five times the capacity?

Not to mention the quarry! She had the probability of getting gems at this early stage!

Her territory buildings seem abnormal!

Ah! Wait! The strength of the beast tide and rewards would always be proportional to the Territory Development.

... A bunch of ellipses emerged in her mind.

Does this mean the beast tide attacking her territory would be abnormal as well?

щ⁠(⁠゜⁠ロ⁠゜⁠щ⁠)

Master, I'm going home!

(A/N: You can do it, Baozi!

Little Baozi: *packing up bags and opening the door*

A/N: Ah, Baozi, where are you going?

Little Baozi: I'm not paid enough! Sayonara, you defend the territory for me!

A/N: *coughs out dust* Hey wait! Come back here! At least give me back my purse!)
