Volume 1: The Second Coming (Remastered) Chapter 13: A Territory of One's Own

After receiving the two treasure chests, what was in front of Yu Bin was his biggest and most important loot in this orange epic crusade - a territory that belonged to him!

On the continent of Entagre, players can become a lord in a variety of ways. You can gain appreciation for working for an NPC, and then gradually increase your position, and eventually be granted a piece of land by the NPC to become a low-level lord subordinate to the NPC; It is also possible to use warfare to seize the territory of other NPCs or players by recruiting soldiers and other players; You can even take the mountain in a deserted mountain forest and turn this unexplored area into your own territory; If you still find it difficult to do so, you can also become a lord by paying a lot of money to buy land from an NPC lord.

But no matter what method a player uses, there's one thing you're absolutely needed, and that's the Territory Core!

Almost every large-scale race has its own unique territorial core to expand its territory, but in addition to the four major races, the territorial core of other races will have some flaws to a greater or lesser extent, therefore, the most common territorial core in the hands of players in the previous life belongs to the four major races, and only the four major races, which occupy the most dominant position in the Entagri continent, have enough resources and systems to create a sufficient number of territorial cores with sufficient performance.

The territory in front of Yu Bin is more precious than the ordinary territory, because this is transformed from the strengthened territory core, how much potential a territory has, the most important factor is how powerful the core of the territory is, the stronger the core of the transformed territory, the more buildings and functions can be supported. The territory obtained by using the ordinary territory core can only allow the player to develop the territory to the stage of the town, and then the city, and to upgrade the territory from the town to the city, in addition to the player needs to obtain a certain identity, the territory core also needs to be strengthened, which can be integrated by investing more cores of the same type, or expanded by replacing more powerful cores.

Compared with the ordinary core, the enhanced territory core used by Yu Bin can already be regarded as a relatively powerful kind. This core can support the development of the province all the way to small cities, and as long as other conditions are met, the upgrade of the province does not need to operate on the core.

Of course, now this territory transformed from the Hero's Cemetery does not belong to Yu Bin, and the method of obtaining this territory is also very simple, you only need to bind your soul fire to the black crystal that is the core of the territory, and you can become the veritable owner of this territory.

The binding process went smoothly, and after the system prompted Yu Bin to successfully obtain the first territory, the first task was to name the territory.

"Naxxramas!" Yu Bin did not hesitate to use this name.

"Honorable Lord, your realm [Naxxramas] has been successfully established, congratulations! As the first player to establish a territory, you'll be rewarded with a Territory Trait Scroll, which you can use to add a province trait to your province (no more than three province traits) or enhance a province trait! ”

This is a very good bonus, the territory trait is equivalent to a talent for the player, and any territory trait will give the province a huge economic or military advantage!

At the same time, with the successful binding of the core of the territory and Yu Bin's soul fire, the skeleton statue holding the core has also changed, and the two bone wings that originally wrapped the body slowly opened and hugged in front of him, turning into a bone seat, and the hands holding the core hung down to his chest, looking like a brilliant gem dotted on the top of the seat.

The skeleton seat looked terrifying and scary, the seat surface composed of bone wings was uneven, Yu Bin thought it would be very uncomfortable, but after sitting on it, he didn't feel any discomfort at all, and the size of the seat slowly changed with Yu Bin's body, and the thick bones rose on both sides as armrests, which had a sense of majesty.

At the same time, information about the territory also appeared in front of Yu Bin.

The first is the basic information of the territory.

Naxxramas (Undead): A ruined village with the territory traits Valhallic Lands and Special Soil.

[Land of the Heroic Spirit]: A large number of heroes are buried in this territory, and a large number of heroic corpses have made special changes in this land through years of subtle transformation, all undead units born in this territory (including but not limited to undead civilians, soldiers, structures and war machines) will be blessed by the Heroic Spirit, the probability of generating high-quality civilians will be slightly increased, and the basic qualifications of soldiers will be improved (Green Excellent level).

[Special Soil]: This land once contained a huge amount of light power, and despite being corrupted, there is still a trace of light power left here, and it has a special reaction with the power of death. All military units spawned from the realm (including but not limited to undead soldiers, structures, war machines, and heroes) will receive a 10% base stat bonus and light resistance.

Each territory does not have a clear territorial range, that is, as long as the player has the ability, even if the entire province is divided into their own territory, but the range of the territory core can be fixed, and the ordinary territory core can only cover an area with a radius of 500 meters, beyond which you cannot enjoy the effect of the territory core, which means that the larger the territory range, the larger the area that needs to be defended, the higher the difficulty, and the easier it is to destroy those buildings that cannot be protected by the territory core, And all recruiting buildings need the support of the territory core to function properly.

This is one of the reasons why the normal Territory Core can only support the development of the territory to the town, and the more advanced the building, the more advanced the Territory Core will need to support!

The way to expand the territory is also very simple, that is, strengthen the territory core or use another core outside the original core to expand the territory by connecting two territories into one.

Since Yu Bin's Naxxramas was built using a strengthened territory core, the coverage area was increased to a radius of one kilometer, which is almost the area of the entire Hero's Cemetery.

The characteristics of the two territories are also very good, [Heroic Land] allows Naxxramas to have a greater probability of giving birth to highly qualified civilians, and the higher the qualifications, the more qualified civilians can master more life skills, become tailors, blacksmiths, alchemists and other professional craftsmen, providing support for the further development of the territory, and the improvement of the basic qualifications of soldiers means that they can evolve into a more advanced form, and the basic combat effectiveness is also stronger, which is also a big improvement in the military strength of the territory.

[Special Soil] further amplifies this advantage, in addition to making the military units of the territory have more powerful strength, one point that cannot be ignored is that the war machine made in Naxxramas will also have more powerful attributes, which is a great help for Yu Bin's own use or for selling money, which is enough to cause an overwhelming effect on similar products produced in ordinary territories.

And in addition to these basic information, there is an additional piece of information at the bottom.

[Special Mission: Explore the Underground Cemetery]: There are a large number of human heroes buried under this land, although they have been corrupted by the power of death, but they have not given up resistance, you must enter the huge catacombs, let these recalcitrant people feel the greatness of the will to die, after successfully completing this goal, this territory can truly be recognized by these heroes, and you can enjoy the true power of this land!

It's a forced task! As long as Yu Bin is still the lord of Naxxramas, this task will be fixed on him, and he cannot give up or transfer it!

Well, Yu Bin almost forgot about it! In fact, as one of the ten sacred places of mankind, how could the Hero Cemetery fall into the hands of the undead so easily, and it was impossible to completely corrupt the entire Hero Cemetery with just a strengthened territorial core.

In fact, until now, only the surface part of the Hero's Cemetery has been transformed into the Land of Death by the forces of death, but the underground cemetery located in the depths has not been greatly affected, and it houses the remains of all the human heroes buried in the Hero's Cemetery, and it is specially protected, and the massive, labyrinth-like underground cemetery and various powerful traps still guard the corpses. In order to completely complete the corruption of the Heroes' Cemetery, it is necessary to break through the entire underground cemetery and baptize all the corpses with the power of death.

In the previous life, this underground cemetery existed as a special dungeon area, and players could take over the task of raiding the dungeon from the hands of the local lords, and defeat the heroic spirits who were still awake one by one, so as to complete the corruption of the entire catacomb, but because these heroic spirits were heroic-level existences before their deaths, the difficulty of the strategy was extremely difficult, at least before the entire Entagri continent merged with reality, Yu Bin did not hear the news that this dungeon was completely attacked.

And now, this copy has become a problem for Yu Bin, but fortunately, this underground cemetery is not related to the entire crusade task, and there is no time limit for corrupting the underground cemetery, Yu Bin can take it slowly, and wait for himself to have enough strength before considering the matter of attacking the underground cemetery. But correspondingly, he must also bear the same pressure! It is likely that the human spirits buried in the underground cemetery have awakened due to the invasion of death forces on the surface, causing damage to Naxxramas.

After making sure that no information was missed, Yu Bin did not hesitate to use up the territory characteristic scroll that was awarded to him before, he did not add new characteristics to the territory, after all, it was equivalent to gambling, who knows if the new characteristics are suitable for Naxxramas, but chose to strengthen the [Valhallic Land] feature.

After the enhancement, the [Heroic Soul Land] has become [Heroic Spirit Protection], and the effect has been significantly improved, the probability of the birth of high-qualified civilians is higher than before, and the soldier's qualification has also become blue refinement.

Of course, this is not the most ideal state that Yu Bin thinks, the soldier's qualifications have not changed much in the white ordinary level, green excellent level and blue refined level, and the gap between the low-level soldiers in these qualifications may be more obvious, but when it comes to the middle and high-level troops, there is no substantial difference between the blue exquisite level and the white ordinary level, except that the basic attributes are higher and can evolve to a higher form, there are no more changes.

And only when the soldier's qualifications exceed the blue refinement level, after reaching the red rare level or even the purple legend level, there will be a very obvious improvement, these high-qualification soldiers in addition to the basic attributes are more powerful, will also have additional exclusive skills or special effects, at the same time, only these high-qualified soldiers can evolve into a hidden form, and the hidden form of each class is far stronger than the ordinary evolutionary form, it can even be said that the combat effectiveness of the hidden form is basically equivalent to that of a higher level of troops!

However, Yu Bin is not without the ability to do this, although things like territory characteristic scrolls are precious, Yu Bin still knows where to get them, so many years of game experience in his previous life, and various dungeon strategies learned through the Internet and forums, Yu Bin can be sure that there are at least five copies of the territory characteristic scroll.

Moreover, at least before the world of Entagre is fully opened and humans can enter this world without rings, there are very few players who can obtain territories, so Yu Bin's demand for territories in the early stage is not too strong, so it is not very urgent to improve the characteristics of territories.

But the construction of the territory is as early as possible, compared to those famous player lords in the previous life, Yu Bin neither has enough financial support, nor does he have a large number of subordinates to help, unlike those big guilds, you can use tens of millions of gold coins and countless players to build the territory together with your fingers, Yu Bin can only rely on his own ability to develop Naxxramas little by little, in this way, you must get the territory as soon as possible, and rely on time to fight against the development speed of those player lords who have the support of the big guild, otherwise, will only repeat the scene in his previous life and become a lone wolf who is called around, and this kind of life is definitely not what Yu Bin wants.

After the basic information of the territory is clearly understood, the next focus is to build the territory.

There are no strict rules for the construction of territories in the world of Entagre, and it will not give you a construction list like those cheap online games, which lists all the buildings that can be built, here, players can either build houses according to their own ideas, or build according to existing architectural drawings, the former can do whatever they want, but the disadvantage is that it has little effect, while the latter can provide a variety of functions, the disadvantage is that it is more expensive, and the difficulty of obtaining drawings is relatively high.

Generally speaking, similar to simple buildings such as houses, watchtowers, city walls and shops, players can play freely without relying on drawings, as long as they can make the things built meet the requirements, and functional buildings such as recruitment buildings, magic workshops, etc., it is almost impossible for players to build without drawings, of course, if players have architectural life skills and master the drawing principles of these functional buildings, then under the command of these "architects", these functional buildings can also be built.

In addition to architects, there are also alchemists, tailors, blacksmiths, etc., these players put more energy into the corresponding life skills, relatively unable to have much combat ability (advanced life skills also need corresponding academic support, and these academics rarely have an impact on combat ability), these players are called life players, they are often hired by the guild to serve the guild in a safe environment or produce various materials.

As for Yu Bin, he is the only player in the entire Entagri Continent now, and there is no way to build a territory, so he has to honestly wait for Naxxramas to give birth to a civilian himself.
