Lords: From Civilization to the Stars.

Chapter 3 Civilization
"Sigvat! Come with me and bring some people, let's go!"

"Where to go?"

"As Star Child said, let's go to the cliff and see what's there!"

The Norse people are bold and straightforward.

After deciding on something, they often don't have too much hesitation or delay, but take action directly with their people.

After leaving some Norscan raiders in the village, Ulfric led a team of twelve people and began to move towards the cliff, and the rest of the people were asked to obey Leon's orders.

Sitting in the warm room, Leon looked up at the Norsemen who were leaving wearing animal skins, and a series of system prompts sounded in his mind again.

It was not until now, after Ulfric left, that Leon completely activated the system in his brain.

'Preliminary tasks have been completed! System started!'

'Your explorer: Monster Hunter Ulfric has set off!'

'Your village has been established.'

'System function is enabled.'

'After the settlement is established, a certain sphere of influence can be established. After the land is included in the sphere of influence, it will provide bonuses to all residents of this civilization within the sphere of influence.'

'After exploration, all terrain and resources will be transferred to the system for settlement. When certain technologies are not completed, some resources and minerals will be considered hidden. If there are no other factors, they will not be included in the settlement.'

'The civilization you lead is: Norscan'

'Current national characteristics: living by plundering, worship of dark gods, born rebellious, following the strong, fishing and hunting traditions, nomadic nature'

'Tech tree integration completed'

'Special technology tree and environment detected, the system is being compatible...Compatibility completed, system initialization completed, please explore the system functions on your own.'

'From your first underwater beginnings to the present day, you have come a long way. Now begins your greatest quest yet! From the cradle of early civilization to the stars!'

After a series of prompts, Leon soon felt that his vision seemed to have turned into a very strange dominant mode.

It was as if he was looking down on the world from another angle. It was as if he had become the concept of civilization itself.

He could see slaves on the beach working hard despite the pain and hunger, and he could also see the Norsemen communicating with each other in a seemingly generous and open manner, but they were suppressing their anxiety.

There were also the thirteen explorers heading towards the top of the mountain. Le Ang could also feel their complicated emotions.

That is the spirit of having no opinion of one's own and deciding to leave everything to fate.

"If you can't find anything, go back and chop that guy up."

Feeling the most essential mood of the expedition team, Leon shook his head, then raised his perspective, overlooking this small gathering place called the 'landing point' from a wider angle.

From Li Ang's high-altitude perspective, the area that can be seen at present is approximately ten kilometers around.

The whole world was just like the Civilization that Leon had played before, showing the general terrain and resources divided by hexagonal grids. At the same time, a series of information also appeared in Leon's mind.

'Gathering Place (Unnamed)'

'Population: 211'

'State: nervous, uncertain, questioning'

'Learning level: illiterate'

'Location: Edge of unnamed ice island'

'Current productivity: 1'

'Current food: 1'

'Your gathering place is running low on food! Please assign food workers to replenish it as soon as possible!'

'Technology: Not yet enabled'

'Culture: Not yet open' Looking at these numbers, Li Ang's mind began to quickly construct relevant news and information.

It has to be said that the Norsemen's judgment was actually correct.

Apart from the ocean, the rest of the block is basically covered with snow. Their pessimism is not without reason.

But after Leon's consciousness descended, he observed carefully and could still feel that the system gave him a series of descriptions and suggestions. There were even solutions to some problems. This was the confidence that the system gave him.

When he looked down from a high vantage point and saw the white snowfield and the coast, his consciousness gave him the answer.

'Magic Snowfield: This abnormal snowfield created by the precipitation of magic winds, almost no creatures can survive. In this freezing wasteland, only creatures mocked by the gods can survive here in a strange manner. After unlocking the magic transformation theory technology, you can transform your form in a short period of time.'

'Magic Ice: Unnatural ice created by the precipitation of magical winds. Will not melt, will not dissolve into water. Long-term contact will cause mental damage to individuals. After unlocking the gunpowder technology or the magic bombardment technology, it can be destroyed or converted into ocean land.'

'Cursed Ocean: An ocean tainted by curses and magic. It contains a wealth of magical power and dark magic. People who travel on the ocean for a long time will gradually become irritable, angry, and aggressive. It can be purified through special means.'

'Devil fish school: A cursed school of fish in the cursed ocean. They can be caught. Because they have no natural enemies, they are numerous and will not escape and dissipate in the short term. Under the current technological environment, they can support forty jobs. They can provide fifteen tons of food and five units of magic sacrifice every day.'

'Tip: You can assign personnel to work as fishermen at will, and the efficiency of fishing and cooking will not be affected.'

You can freely dispatch personnel to carry out work without being affected...

There might be something really amazing here that you can use to your advantage.

Looking at the words on the system, Li Ang fell into deep thought.

His brain quickly put some clues together, and after thinking for a while, he walked out of the room and greeted a Norseman who was outside hammering boards to build a wooden shed.

"Hey, over there, come here."

"Star Child? You're looking for me?"

The Norseman looked around and pointed at himself in confusion.

"Yes, that's you. Take about a dozen people with you and go fishing in a boat.

About two hours' sailing there, that ugly-looking manta ray came over to eat us.

Our food problem is solved.”

"Ha, Star Child, those fish are creatures cursed by the gods. They can't be eaten at all."

"Why can't you eat it?"

Looking at the puzzled Norscan in front of him, Leon smiled slightly and took the confused Norscan into the position of a fisherman.

"You should now know whether it can be eaten and whether it can be caught. Start thinking carefully now. The knowledge should already be in your mind. Just think about it briefly."

"What the hell are you... huh?!"

The Norseman in front of Leon first looked disapproving, then lowered his head to think about it, and then looked at Leon in horror who was smiling in front of him without saying a word.

Because this illiterate person who couldn't read a single word actually had some knowledge about catching, handling, and cooking manta rays in his mind.

It was like he was born to be a great manta fisherman.

Once you are granted this position, you retain this knowledge forever.

This is God’s grace. No, it is a feat that is even more indescribable than God’s grace.

Looking at the smiling Leon, the Norsemen who stayed in the camp knelt down with a plop, kowtowed to Leon without hesitation, and then shouted loudly under the horrified gaze of others.

"Guys! Anyone who still has the energy and has fishing experience? Come out to sea with me!
We can survive now! Manta rays are actually edible!

The great Star Child gave us everything!
We are the tribe favored by the gods!"

'System prompt: Your settlement's trust has begun to increase'

Looking at the gathering place value that was rapidly increasing to trust, Leon smiled slightly. He seemed to know how to play this game.
