Chapter 11: The Accelerated Progression of the Game

Today's one-day exploration earned a total of 17,320 gold coins, 57 wood, 25 ores, some experience, and no loss.

It can be said that it was a glorious day, and when most of the current players were still leading the 12 level 1 troops given by the system to carefully find trouble with those level 1 monsters, Thunder Tiger already had the strength to push off the level 6 monsters of the 1 squad.

Returning to the City of Rebirth, Thunder Tiger checked the resources he now had, 18,320 gold coins, 77 wood, and 45 ore.

"Ding, the construction of the council hall will cost 12,500 gold coins, are you sure to build?"

"Sure!"

With the sound of Lei Laohu's confirmation, the original dilapidated tent instantly expanded fivefold and became a single-story building with a bit of Western medieval meaning.

The tent space, which was originally nothing, suddenly changed and became sacred, finally bidding farewell to the tent era, and the reborn city also had some defense.

This is the characteristic of "Heroes", as long as there are enough resources, any building can be built in an instant, and there is no need to wait.

Outside the council hall, a number of low bungalows appeared, and some peasants dressed in cloth were refreshed and spontaneously reclaimed around the city.

And some players who were wandering around the main city of the system suddenly found that a large number of NPCs were suddenly refreshed around them, and these NPCs were either farmers, orcs, skeletons, or elves......

In short, depending on the city, all kinds of nPc were suddenly refreshed, some of these nPc built houses nearby, some went to build houses outside the city, and some cultivated fertile fields in the fields, in short, they did their own things.

This sudden change surprised the game's players, and even some curious players took up arms to attack the suddenly refreshed nPcs, but the consequences of these people were often tragic.

"Congratulations to the player for convincing people with virtue and building the council hall, and the city of rebirth is officially completed."

"Congratulations to the player, your reborn city, get a reward of 10,000 food, the title of "the first city in the world"! Gain 5000 Templar Fame, do you hide your name? ”

"Yes!"

"System announcement: A player has established a town council, the town system is fully open, the aboriginal intelligent system is fully opened, the food system is open, and the hunger of the troops is opened! For the specific situation, players are invited to find out by themselves! ”

Just when all the players were feeling strange about the nPcs that had just been refreshed, the system announcement sounded to answer their doubts.

As all players know, these NPCs are the ordinary inhabitants of a city, the most basic part of a city.

That's right.,In the past, there were only a few wooden nPcs in a city who said the same thing repeatedly.,What's the difference between this and ordinary online games? In other words, it is just a virtual reality.

That said, it's not surprising that players attacking nPCs are wanted by the system's main city.

And when Lei Laohu heard this announcement, his face also changed, and he suddenly thought that he had overlooked a key issue.

That is his own action, which has unconsciously accelerated the progress of the game.

For example, the opening of this intelligent system, in the previous life, it was nearly 1 and a half months after the game was launched, that is, when the tiger ben officially established the town.

But in this life, I was advanced to the first day of the game's service, which is more than 40 days ahead of myself.

With the development of the Reborn City, such a game process will definitely be slowed up by itself.

In this way, his three-year advantage is actually not very large.

If there was still a trace of pride in the heart of the previous Lei Laohu, now his heart has completely calmed down.

Because of the appearance of the Reborn City, my previous plan also needs to be slightly modified, and the plan can't catch up with the changes.

…………………………

After spending 12,500 gold to build the council hall, the City of Rebirth has 5,820 gold, 77 wood, and 45 ore.

As for the handling of the remaining resources, Lei Laohu and Rodhart had some small disputes.

Rodhart believes that it is better to build taverns or hoard resources to build forts, as taverns can improve the morale of the soldiers defending the city, and can also provide useful information through taverns, and may even allow heroes to stay there.

If it can be successfully recruited, then the reborn city will have one more hero, and the development speed will be greatly improved.

The most important point is that the Tavern is a necessary building for the construction of the House of the Interior, and with the construction of the House of the Interior, the town can be upgraded to a level 2 town.

Because the income of a Tier 2 town is twice as high as that of a Tier 1 town.

But Lei Laohu, who has the experience of rebirth, does not think so, as a reborn, he knows the biggest needs of "Heroes" players at this stage.

Keep in mind that Heroes doesn't allow players to trade privately, and the system doesn't sell any items.

Whether it's between players or between players and nPcs, or between nPcs and nPcs, all transactions must be done through the marketplace.

And when the player does not have a city, he can only trade items through the market of the main city of the system, of course, there will be a black market in the wild, but most players will not choose to trade in the black market.

The fee in the system market is 1% (no fee for transactions less than 100 gold), 5% for the black market (20 gold for the transaction amount, the minimum charge is 1 gold), and the player's own market does not charge any fees.

The market is like an exchange in a general online game, an auction hall and the like, players can hang the goods they need to sell in the market in the main city of the system, mark the price to sell the items, or sell the items by auction, of course, you can also mark the price in the market to buy goods.

The reason why Thunder Tiger chose to build the market now is because of the player's factors.

What do players lack most in the early stages of the game?

Gold!

In the case that the player's level is generally not high, and the dual-attribute system is not fully opened, players are either fighting monsters or PK.

The main damage still comes from the class they carry, and the recruitment of the class requires the consumption of gold coins and food, and the recruitment cost is not low, even if it is a level 1 class spearman of the Templar, it takes 600 gold coins and 1 food to recruit 1.

Just with the Thunder Tiger killing nearly a thousand level 1-2 troops, and only collecting 7,000 gold coins in the wild, you can think of how scarce the resources in the field are.

And today's players are still in the exploration stage, and many advanced skills have not been studied.

Therefore, when the player kills the wild creatures, it will cause the loss of the class, so that the player will get less gold for leveling up.

Even with the exception of a small number of players with good skills, most players are not even-balanced, with at least 9 out of 10 players losing money.

Of course, players with money can exchange in-game currency directly through real money.

However, in the first 3 days of the game, the system did not dare to open too large gold coin exchange at one time, and only allowed each player to exchange 1000 gold coins.

So for today's players, gold is what they lack the most.

And after Lei Lao Tiger built the council hall, a new resource, food, appeared, which was even scarcer than gold coins.

Because it appeared so suddenly, many players were unprepared, and when they returned to the city to recruit after the troops died, they found that the recruited troops actually needed a different amount of food.

Moreover, this food is also a continuous consumable, 1 unit will consume food every day, and the food consumed is the same as the food required for recruitment.

This has driven the players crazy, no food, no soldiers, no soldiers, no experience, no level...... It's an endless loop.

However, the player's power is endless, and soon some players found that the nPcs refreshed by the system can receive farming tasks, and players can get 10 units of food for 1 hour of farming.

But even so, the rate of food acquisition is too slow to keep up with the rate of consumption.

The entire "Heroes" players shouted on the forum about the lack of money, food, and troops, and cursed the first player to build a city, why build a city so quickly.

Of course, Lei Laohu is not aware of this situation for the time being, he has a rebirth experience and knows very well that 3 months after the game was launched, the system canceled the exchange restrictions on gold coins, a large amount of funds poured in, and prices soared.

Lei Laohu clearly remembers that in his previous life, at this time, the ratio of gold coins to other resources in the market is now 1:1, and basically 1 gold coin can buy 1 resource; It only gradually stabilized after 1 month when the ratio of gold to resources reached 1:10.

Therefore, his original plan was to collect a large amount of resources in the first month, and then sell a large number of resources after the first month to earn gold coins.

But now it seems that because of his own reasons, maybe there is no time for 1 month, so it is imperative for Lei Laohu to build a market now.

Don't look at the resources such as wood and ore, if there is no city, there will be almost no consumption, even if the city is built, the consumption is not large.

However, during the big battles, the consumption of these two resources is very large, even greater than resources such as brimstone and gems, which were later called strategic resources by players.

Because these two resources not only need to be consumed a lot when building siege equipment, but also a lot of these resources are needed to defend cities, such as building temporary defenses, repairing damaged walls, etc., these two resources are needed.

Even in some large-scale battles of the system, these two materials can also be used to farm the reputation of the faction.

Moreover, siege equipment is easily damaged, and once damaged, it must be remanufactured, which in turn requires a lot of resources.

Timber and ore are two strategic resources that become more expensive in the later stages, even exceeding the price of rare resources such as gems and sulfur, after all, most players have no chance to recruit high-level troops, and only recruiting high-level troops will consume a large number of rare resources.

So rare resources are getting cheaper and cheaper, and strategic resources are getting more and more expensive.

Besides, there is only one player and one nPC in the city of rebirth, and the speed of obtaining resources is a bit slow.

If you follow Rodhart's words, step by step, step by step, although it is not bad, but the speed of development is too slow and slow.

Therefore, Thunder Tiger must take risks and must rely on the advantage of his foresight to earn resources for the development of the Reborn City.
