Chapter 59 - Was About to Open a Large

[Ding~ You have obtained the Food Workshop Blueprint.]

[Food Workshop Blueprint]

[Level: Ordinary]

[Characteristics: Can build a food workshop for research, development and production, and processing of food.

[Resources Required for Construction: 5,000 gold coins, 10,000 units of wood, 10,000 units of stone]

[Construction Time: 7 days]

[Standard Number Required: 30 people. When the number of people is less than the standard number, the construction time will increase. When the number of people is greater than the standard, the construction time will decrease.]

[Occupation: 10 spaces]

[Description: Your territory can taste more delicious food.]

Richard touched his chin. This was the first time he had released a blueprint.

He obtained the Hero’s Altar blueprint from the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce.

Moreover, as he looked at its attributes, they seemed to be pretty good.

Food production, processing, research…? Wasn’t this a one-stop research, development, and production?

A lot of ideas immediately popped up in Richard’s mind.

‘Desert Crown Honey and Russian olive forest, couldn’t all of these be additionally processed and developed?’

‘Wouldn’t food made from Desert Crown Honey provide the Royal Family?’

The more he thought about it, the more interesting it would be.

The people valued food above all else. This wasn’t just a common saying.

As long as the things he made were outstanding, there would surely be no need to worry about selling them.

He was short of resources.

After the troop lairs reached rarity, every upgrade required an astronomical amount of resources.

The next upgrade of the Axe of the Dead Lair would be Rare 3-stars, which required 1,000 ordinary-level troop lairs.

Five hundred per nest would mean 500,000 units of resources…

If he upgraded again, it would be 5 million units.

This number was getting more and more ridiculous.

Moreover, this was only one branch of the troop. The number of resources needed would be astronomical If one wanted to train more troop units.

Whether he managed the territory or developed the army, the most fundamental thing was still the word “economy”.

While Richard thought, he stored the blueprint in the system space.

At this moment, Twilight City had another path to take.

The system notification sounded just as Richard scanned the map.

[Ding~ The battle of the gods shattered the long river of time that caused countless time fragments to remain in the main plane.]

[One of the time fragments that involve a large number of origin rules will appear on May 28.]

[The top 1,000,000 players on the lord ranking list can enter and explore it.]

[After the troop that the lords brought in dies, they can spend the points they earned to resurrect when the time fragment ends. The lord himself can resurrect for free.]

[The time fragment contains all sorts of special treasures. The winner will also receive special rewards. Lord, please be prepared.]

Richard’s spirits heaved.

He opened the system and read the notification a few more times.

“Time fragment?”

“Wasn’t this a dungeon?”

Moreover, it was a large-scale dungeon with millions of participants!

More importantly, this dungeon could be resurrected, so there was no need to worry about death.

Millions of lords who were no longer afraid of death fought together. That scene was probably more spectacular than any movie.

At this moment, his heart suddenly became excited.

He was a little displeased there were no players’ territories around Twilight City. At this moment, he could finally fight with those sand sculptures.

He opened the [Forum Chat] and found that everyone was in an uproar.

[Hahaha, a large-scale dungeon! This time, I can finally have enough fun!]

[Brothers, come and join me. We’ll capture Basak at this moment!]

[I’m sorry, I wanted to be a good person in the past, but I didn’t have the chance. Now, I can only kill you all in exchange for the final reward.]

[There are still 20 days left, violent troop, violent troop!!]

[F*ck, why didn’t you say so earlier? I already sold my territory to the NPCs this morning. If I went, wouldn’t I win the final prize?]

[Does anyone know any information about this dungeon?]

[Wind and cloud will recruit players vigorously. As the saying goes, a single tree can make a forest. Working together can break the gold! “Brothers who are no longer willing to be bullied or face danger alone, please send me a private message! After entering the dungeon, there will be a great backup.]

[The first million lords can enter the dungeon? What does this mean? Why only a million? We have 20 billion people!]

[Everyone, look, the rankings have been announced!!]

Suddenly, a post piqued Richard’s interest. He closed the [Forum Chat] and looked at the gray section of the forum—the [Leaderboard].

At this moment, the [Leaderboard] could be clicked into.

With a thought, he opened it. There were two sections inside:

[Territory Level Ranking List]

[Overall Territory Strength Ranking List]

The “Shining Era” was a game for lords. Everything was based on the territory and there was no such thing as a ranking list.

Currently, only one list was open—the [Territory Level Ranking List].

The [Overall Territory Strength Ranking List] had a countdown—May 28, 10:00.

[The top one million could enter the time fragment.]

Richard glanced and was surprised.

[Territory Level Ranking List]

[First: Dragon Dive — Territory Level: 3 Small City, Faction: Human (Holy Church)]

[Second: Claude — Territory Level: 3 Small City, Faction: Elf (Natural)]

[Third: Hank — Territory Level: 3 Small City, Faction: Orc (Tribe)]

[Fourth: Beacon Smoke — Territory Level: 3 Small City, Faction: Human (Holy Church)]

[Fifth: Spring Tide — Territory Level: 3 Small City, Faction: Demon (Abyss)]

[Sixth: Toshio Watanabe — Territory Level: 3 Small City, Faction: Orc (Tribe)]

[Seventh: Muhammad — Territory Level: 3 Small City, Faction: Undead (Undead)]

[Eighth: Gross — Territory Level: 3 Small City, Faction: Dwarf (Fortress)]

[Ninth: Babarov — Territory Level: 2 Small City, Faction: Human (Church)]

[Tenth: Gikdel — Territory level: 2 Small City, Faction: Medusa (Dungeon)]

******

The top eight territories had ultimately been upgraded to level 3 small cities!!

From the eighth place to the 1,000 shown, all of them were level 2 small cities.

“Under the 20 billion base, there will inevitably be strong people.”

Richard glanced at his territory ranking: 10 billion +

His mouth twitched.

The resources he had obtained in the past few days had all been invested into the troop lairs, which made Twilight City still a level 1 village.

Compared to the territories on the ranking list, it was simply too inferior.

However, there were priorities, and he did not think that his choice was a problem.

In an unsafe environment, before he could protect himself, he had invested resources into leveling up his territory.

Once an enemy appeared, he could only lie down and wait for death.

He had always liked to have the initiative in his hands.

“Next, it’s time to raise the territory level. I definitely can’t miss that large-scale dungeon.”

Richard had absolute confidence that he could occupy a place in the overall territory strength ranking list. However, to be on the safe side, he still had to raise the level of the territory as soon as possible.

What if in the overall territory troop strength ranking that had yet to be opened, the territory level is placed at a high rank and the troop strength is at a low rank?

He could not be careless.

At this moment, Richard was in high spirits.

He wondered if Twilight City’s current troop strength would be able to suppress the situation if it was placed among the top part of the 20 billion lords.

No, he still needed to improve the troop’s strength. He needed to improve the troop strength before this dungeon opened.

He wanted to build troops that the other lords will have to bow to.
