"In other words, is the Monster Siege a threshold specifically for the player lord?" Ning Yuan lowered his head and pondered, "That's right, compared to the aborigines, there are indeed a lot more ways and opportunities for players to get a heart in the city, and it's a lot easier. ”

"Rules specific to you?" Qin Yirou raised her eyebrows slightly, and said indifferently with some kind of assertive tone, "Then the strength of the demon beast siege will definitely not exceed your ability to bear it." ”

"That's what I thought too." Ning Yuan nodded, raised his hand and knocked on his eyebrows, and said, "A month's time should be that the village has just been upgraded to a town in terms of the player's normal progress, and the Chosen Circle has a minimum of fifty people a day, and a maximum of 100 people, plus the outcasts outside and the captives after the bandits, etc., the population is not a problem for players in the early stage." The key is to have some necessary building facilities and upgrade the towers and walls that the town must build. ”

"From the point of view of the upgrade rules given by the city knot, the village must have shops, restaurants, workshops, schools and other corresponding supporting facilities to meet the needs of the residents, in addition to the city walls and towers that can basically reach the outside of the enemy, and then need source coins and some materials containing energy to sacrifice to improve the urban area of the city's knot. As far as the player is concerned, a month in the village is about the right time. ”

Ning Yuan thought for a while, looked at Qin Yirou and said, "From the outside world, as long as the location of the city chosen by the player is not some particularly dangerous territory, it is indeed not difficult to carry the attack of a demon beast with little strength with the help of the town guard troops sent by the superior alliance, but we have no outside conditions here. The factors of the Dragon Prisoner Jedi itself and the urban characteristics of the Dream of the Rim limit the growth of the population, and we have no superior affiliation alliances, so we don't have any foreign aid. In this case, to be honest, I don't have much confidence in carrying the demon beast to attack the city, even if the strength of the demon beast is not high. ”

"The original safe zone is five thousand miles west of the cliff of the Fulong Mountain Range in the east, including Longman Lake and Xiling, which is enough for a city to upgrade to the city level safely and safely, and can repel the city-level monster attack at a very small cost." Qin Yirou obviously understood what Ning Yuan meant, and explained lightly.

However, although we considered the fact that there was no regular displaced population in the Land of Dragons, we did not take the population factor into account too much considering the number of non-people in the western tribes. It would not have been thought that the urban character obtained by building a city here would naturally have the effect of population suppression. After all, we will definitely come to build a city with enough people to upgrade the city to the city level in a short period of time to be able to establish a firm foothold. ”

"But now everything is different." Ning Yuan said.

"Not bad." Qin Yirou said lightly in an inexplicable tone, "Everything is different. ”

"The Qin Alliance has disappeared into the long river of history, and you have obtained the legacy of the Qin Alliance. What wasn't a problem with population is now your city's biggest problem. ”

Ning Yuan nodded.

"Don't open the city before the monsters attack the city." Qin Yirou suddenly suggested.

"Why?" Ning Yuan frowned slightly, and asked puzzledly, "What Yuanmeng lacks most now is population, and without population, cities can't be upgraded, and if they can't upgrade, they can't get the blessing of the city, without a certain number of fighters and the blessing of the city, it's impossible for Yuanmeng to survive the monster siege, right?" ”

"Normally, it does." Qin Yirou nodded, "Even if the Four Gates Array has suppressed the danger of demon beasts to the minimum, the cluster of demon beasts still has devastating destructive power against towns that lack population. ”

Then he faintly added: "If it weren't for us." ”

Ning Yuan's eyes lit up slightly when he heard this.

"Can the guard puppet block it?"

"What is the scale of the monster siege?" Qin Yirou didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

Ning Yuan recalled the data on the forum and said: "All the demon beasts within a hundred miles around the city limits, there is no limit to the species, mainly the local demon beasts of ordinary strength, the demon beasts with the highest strength are the leaders, and there will be elites and leaders for the demon beasts with a population of more than 1,000 people. ”

"The duration of the siege?"

"Three days." Ning Yuan replied.

"I can't stop it." Qin Yirou said lightly.

"Can't stop it?!" Ning Yuan was surprised, "Then you ......"

Before Ning Yuan's words fell, Qin Yirou said lightly in the second half of his sentence: "Just rely on the words of the guard puppet." ”

"Ugh." Ning Yuan was stunned, a little unsure of what to say.

Qin Yirou glanced at Ning Yuan indifferently and said, "What do you think about holding an entire city with thirty guard puppets?" ”

"I'm ......" Ning Yuan choked again.

Truly. Regardless of the design scheme given by Tuyan, it must include the entire city-wide design scheme. Although Ning Yuan did not enclose the scope of the village to the maximum, it was by no means something that could be defended by thirty guard puppets. Unless these puppets can fly. Or when the demon beasts attacked the city, Ning Yuan gave up other facilities and directly concentrated the defensive forces in the most important sacrificial ancestral hall.

But in this case, Ning Yuan might as well push all the village construction activities to be carried out after the demon beasts attack the city. It was obvious that Ning Yuan was not willing to do this.

Qin Yirou looked at Ning Yuan's somewhat unwilling look, and said lightly: "The population problem can be slowed down first, after all, this place is special, although there are rules and regulations, but if the residents are attacked by demon beasts before they completely return to their hearts, even if at least half of the people who join the household registration will choose to break the contract and leave, and the vast majority of the civilians in the other half of the population will die from this demon beast siege." And neither population flight nor attrition is a good thing for a city. Especially newly built cities. ”

Seeing Ning Yuan's expression of listening, Qin Yirou continued: "This is the land of dragon hiding, and it is a treasure land that all forces want to enter. After the citizens defect, the news here will spread as soon as possible, which will be very bad for you. ”

"But as long as the Chosen is opened, the news here will inevitably spread, right?" Ning Yuan asked.

"Nope. You don't understand. Qin Yirou sorted out her thoughts and said, "After a city-state resident becomes a naturalized city-state, it takes at least one year to leave the city-state, and it also takes a year to join another city-state after automatically leaving the city-state. In other words, under normal circumstances, news will not spread here for one to two years. ”

"In one to two years, with the products here, as long as you don't mess around, it is enough to firmly grasp the hearts of the people." Qin Yirou continued, "If there is no demon beast attacking the city in the first month, or delaying the time of the demon beast siege by three months, I have no objection to you opening the Heavenly Chosen to increase the population, after all, it is easier to build a home together to make the people of the city return to their hearts." But time is too tight. Rather than sacrificing the Chosen Population in vain and releasing the news early to lower the basic popular sentiment of the city-state, then it is better to make sure that the Heavenly Chosen will be opened after surviving the siege of the demon beasts. ”

Ning Yuan pondered Qin Yirou's words and brought up what he didn't understand.

"You just said that the depletion of the population will reduce the basic morale of the city? What is this setting? What else is there to break the deed? Will the citizens of the city be automatically teleported back to the outside world after breaking the deed? ”
