Chapter 35: The Murderous Neighbor

The same thing is happening in several other places.

And as the initiator of this matter, as far as the protagonist Yifei is concerned, he is on the roof of the fortress at this moment, lying leisurely on a rattan chair, staring straight at the empty front, so that others can look at it, and think that he has suddenly become stupid.

It's powerful, it's too powerful, an official position like a chicken rib has allowed him to get such a big benefit! Yifei, who was in a daze at this time, was in an unusually surging mood.

When I woke up, the system upgrade was completed, and although the limit on the number of buildings and soldiers did not increase, the system's map increased.

What used to be a few kilometers in size has now become a huge map with mountains, trees, rivers, basins and canyons.

Looking at the map in the game, he had a general understanding through the comparison between virtual and reality, and the area shown on the map should be the area under the jurisdiction of his official position.

He slowly moved the map to look at it, and this high-definition map was similar to a bug, so that he felt as if he was observing things from God's point of view, and he could see everything that was visible on the map, even the expressions on their faces.

On the map, he found that there were indeed many barbarians living in the Khajid Mountains, large and small villages were scattered throughout the Khazid Mountains, each village was very large, and in the smallest village, there were hundreds of first-level armored warriors.

That's right, it's a level 1 armored warrior, this is a new change in the map after the system update, it can gamify the strength of the enemies on the map.

In other words, as long as he moves his mind, the system will be able to change the appearance of enemies on the map into the appearance of the game, so that he can clearly distinguish the strength of the enemy.

Of course, the system is also very considerate to remind you that this change is for reference only, and if there is any error, you will not be responsible.

For the prompt that the system is so irresponsible, Yifei can only secretly erect the middle finger to express his deep contempt, too embarrassed by the face of the system flow, isn't the system flow always known for its precision and omnipotence, when will it also engage in probability events.

Despite this, he still liked this change, knowing that the barbarian village had a few hundred armored warriors in the lowest village, that is, the strength of the Arab swordsmen who had just been recruited from the mercenary camp, he knew why the barbarians were so bullish - when they were in a good mood, they would be subordinate, and when they were in a bad mood, they would rebel.

The reason for this is that the strength is too strong, hundreds of thousands of level 1 Arab swordsmen, plus millions of archers, plus dense recruits, whoever touches it will collapse.

At the same time, he also found the army secretly stationed in the Khajid Mountains by the orcs, and the dense red dots on the map representing hostility, and after he looked closely, the whole person broke out in a cold sweat.

With thousands of first-class Crusader swordsmen (heavily armored minotaurs), hundreds of Templars (orc generals), thousands of crossbowmen (centaur archers), tens of thousands of archers (lizard archers), and thousands of light horsemen (wolf riders in leather armor), if all of these orcs had attacked last time, his life would have been lost.

Looking at these two forces on the map, he realized that the location of his castle was very bad, and there were too many evil neighbors around.

After looking at the strength of the barbarians and orcs on the map, the sense of comfort in his heart suddenly disappeared, how to enjoy life in such an environment, maybe one day when he sleeps, the enemy will surround himself with water, and then he can't escape even if he wants to.

Thinking of this, he felt a sense of crisis, and even more resentful of the previous families that prevented him from obtaining the title, if it weren't for the guys with sore sores on his face behind his back, maybe he could have gained more strength.

At this time, good things finally happened, as he muttered in his heart, he was finally favored by God with the template of the protagonist.

The day after the system was upgraded, the orc army stationed in the Khajid Mountains moved, and watching them disappear from the map one by one, his tense heart finally relaxed.

In the mountains of Khachid, the barbarians are stronger than the orcs, but their colors on the map are neutral, and as long as he doesn't mess with them, there is nothing at all.

The orc, on the other hand, has just ruined the good deeds of the orcs, and if the orcs want to come to retaliate, he doesn't even have the power to fight back.

After watching the butcher's knife hanging above his head leave, he finally settled down to strengthen his strength.

Since there is a limit to the number of soldiers in the system, let's develop some peripheral forces and strive to find more cannon fodder. So he carefully examined the map, and finally locked on the only small Terran neutral villages in his territory, preparing to incorporate them into his sphere of influence.

So he took the initiative to number the selected villages, which were only 1 to 5, and at the same time, taking advantage of the official position he had just arrived, under the premise that there was no communication, he sent his light cavalry and archers to send them letters of appointment.

The purpose is to cast a wide net to catch more fish, and catch one by one.

As for whether they accept it or not, it's very simple, just look at the system, and if the color changes on the map, then everything will be fine; If it doesn't change, he doesn't mind letting his soldiers go out to brush up on some honors and earn some military merits.

Luckily, all five neutral villages accepted his offer, which made him feel a little happier.

50 cannon fodder for one village, 250 cannon fodder for five villages, not bad, yes, he looked at the changes on the map while calculating in his heart.

As for those rewards in his heart, they are nothing at all, and now that he is rich (there is no silver coins in the system at all, all that passes through his hands are gold coins) does not care at all.

According to the map, except for a few armed swordsmen with the strength of the Crusader swordsman, the rest of the armed men basically only have the same strength as the armed peasants, and it is really cost-effective to pay 2 gold coins every month.

Spending a little money can not only increase your own strength, but also improve the safety factor, where to find such a good thing.

At the same time, as a modern person, he doesn't understand the sense of aristocratic glory that people in this world care about, and he doesn't know what aristocratic glory is, so he doesn't pay attention to the ring engraved with the wolf's head pattern in his hand.

But after years of Internet edification, he also knows one thing that everything must be issued according to the chapter to indicate orthodoxy, so the signal representing the wild wolf family that fell into his hands has become his most convenient seal.

Whenever he makes any announcement or makes any deal with others, he will use a wolf's head label when signing in writing, which means that the agreement is legal and valid.

And he, who cares more about integrity (when it is beneficial to him), not only did not violate the agreement when he presented these announcements or completed these transactions, but did better than the agreement. (In fact, when trading with those people, relying on some of the content I saw on the Internet before, I used a little bit of modern commercial promotion methods, such as the act of buying as much as I gave away.) )

This blind cat met a dead mouse, and his unintentional behavior gave him a good reputation, and any merchant and family that has dealt with the wolf lord knows that the lord of the wolf lord is a very honest and very bold person.

After this reputation, more merchants came to the Wolf Territory, asking to be able to trade with it.

With plenty of gold and a tight sense of crisis, he continued to expand the city, and in just one month, his castle was expanded again, from three walls to four. The number of towers, crossbows, and trebuchets in the castle has doubled.

At this time, he found that his castle could no longer be expanded because of the insufficient number of soldiers, and any further expansion would be detrimental to defense.

Because unlike the game, enemies can't enter the city until the walls are destroyed. It's the real world, and enemies can climb walls.

So he had a new idea, which was to build some small fortresses outside the city to increase the defensive capacity of the area under his jurisdiction.

For a person who cherishes his life very much, he immediately started to act with this decision, directly opening the map and moving to the location of the village numbered No. 1.

In village No. 1, put a small fortress, enclose a square city wall, open two gates before and after, put a medium-sized tower at each of the four corners, plus two tower crossbows and a fire throwing platform.

In the blink of an eye, a small castle appeared on the map, seeing the display on the map, Yifei was very satisfied, haha, if every village was built into such a dock fort, it would be too safe.

Thinking of this, he became even more interested, and directly moved the map to the location of the number 2 village.

"Drop, the host glory value is not enough, and the construction cannot be completed!"

Just when he was in high spirits, a dialog box popped up in the virtual box in front of him.

Not enough honor? Why does the building also have honor points? Looking at the dialog box in front of him, he was stunned.

Suddenly, his face changed, and he directly opened the lord bar in the interface.

Host, reputation 15634, territory population 4087, knighthood, glory 2, class low-level knight, official archon, 100/100 buildings, 480/500 recruits, 255 mercenary soldiers.

Damn, the glory value has changed from more than nine hundred to two, looking at the value displayed in the interface, his whole person is about to collapse.

It turned out that he was only a few honors away from being promoted to a mid-level knight, but now he has suddenly returned to a state of extreme poverty.

I'll go, I said why can system buildings be built to neutral villages, it turns out that honor is needed. Yifei thought about it in his heart for a while, and suddenly understood how his honor value was missing.

Because at this time he was staring very carefully at the building pulled out of the map, the iron ore mine in the red state showed that it could not be built, but the data behind it clearly told him how his reputation was consumed.

Scribe: Non-territory areas require 50 Wood and 50 Reputation to build Iron Mines.

Honor, honor, I want honor! Looking at the prompt of the system, Yifei couldn't help but howl in his heart.
