My troops evolve infinitely

The former, as the name suggests, is a lord who accepts official investment to jointly build the territory, similar to a state-owned enterprise.

The safe city where the rescue team sent the new players was the official lord's city.

"Although official lords have less power, they are more relaxed and safer. Firstly, the official lords' cities are more fortified, so there's no need to worry about monster hordes. Secondly, the official lords will establish important facilities such as player associations and resource transfer stations within the city. In other words, the official city is almost the center of the surrounding area, making it easier for it to prosper."

"And as lords, you can also become stronger as your territory improves. This is the advantage of being a regular lord."

The group lords are lords supported by great nobles and invested by big capitalists.

Sometimes, civilian players and ordinary second-generation gamers lack the resources to build territories, so they will accept investment from some large groups, similar to joint-stock companies.

But the group is not a philanthropist. Some groups with a good reputation are only responsible for earning investment returns and do not interfere in the internal affairs of the players' territories. However, some groups not only interfere, but even try to find ways to sideline the young civilian lords.

Such incidents have occurred in history.

"If you want to accept investment from a group, you must be vigilant and investigate the group's reputation."

A personal lord is naturally one who does not accept external investment and maintains complete autonomy.

It seems to be the most free, but it is also the most difficult.

This kind of lord is rare, and is either extremely weak or extremely strong.

The staff member then added, "Of course, whether it's a group lord, an individual lord, or any of the major chambers of commerce and organizations, they are all part of our Xuan Nation and an inseparable part of our Xuan Nation in the Eternal World - the 'Taixuan Alliance'."

"To this end, Xuan Nation launched the 'Taixuan Alliance' platform. Individual lords and group lords can accept officially issued tasks and earn contribution points, which can be exchanged for various rare resources that are difficult to purchase outside."

Equivalent to the cooperative lord of Xuan State.

Individuals have autonomy over their territories, but they also need to keep up with the Taixuan Alliance in terms of grand strategy.

The alliance will not let the lords cooperate unconditionally, but they cannot avoid it at critical moments.

There is no absolute freedom in this world.

What's more, the newcomers' territories are all located in the outer areas of the Taixuan Alliance. They often encounter monster sieges, and the lords from all over the place still rely on official reinforcements.

So from the official point of view, lord players are actually more reliable than ranger players.

The lord's territory and foundation are all on Taixuan's side.

This is also one of the reasons why the official is willing to spend a lot of resources to cultivate new territories.

……

"It is said that the Taixuan Alliance also has a support program for outstanding individual lords. As long as their performance is outstanding enough, they can receive various resource rewards?"

"At most, I need to compete with young foreign lords as a rookie lord to gain benefits for the Taixuan Alliance?"

It seems that this involves the allocation of some important resource areas.

This is voluntary, but if they can earn resources for the Xuan Kingdom, the new lord will receive a generous reward. The reward is very generous!

Generally speaking, individual lords need to fight more. If they don’t fight, how can they support such a large territory?

"Most newcomers want to take the path of becoming a personal lord, but as they go along, they find that the road is full of thorns and eventually have to succumb to reality."

"If you really want to become a personal lord, you can't miss those precious opportunities."

"It's right to be cautious, but when it's time to fight, you should act decisively."

The above is what Vice President Jiang said when Mu Yuan went to receive additional new member benefits after the ceremony.

……

In the vice president's office, Jiang Cheng stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the crowd of players leaving one after another.

"I hope that this time, we can have a few more accomplished new lords."

he whispered.

The orange-red glow fell on his body, reflecting his angular muscles like granite. His eyes were shining, and he looked like a fire god bathing in the blazing sun.

He thought of the young man in the examination room who had already established a huge advantage but still defeated two big goblins with "dirty" tactics.

Very robust.

He does not have the recklessness, pride and arrogance of some young geniuses.

When Jiang Cheng taught younger players, he always taught them to be cautious. One wrong step could result in death, but it could also lead to heavy losses.

This is also the reason why he values ​​this young man, not just because of his strength.

Only by operating prudently and steadily can you have the last laugh in this eternal world full of crises.

but,

Jiang Cheng always feels that this young man is too steady?

Obviously, a lineup of ten skeleton soldiers is already quite good for a new player who comes from a civilian background, but he inexplicably has a hunch that this is still not the boy's full strength.

It's not a matter of having a few more skeleton soldiers.

During the assessment, it is necessary to leave a few troops to guard the home.

Jiang Cheng just felt that Mu not only kept the troops, but also kept the ace.

"Could it be that this guy has already recruited rare-level soldiers?"

is it possible?

Thinking of Mu Yuan's performance, Jiang Cheng vaguely felt that... it was really possible!

He shook his head and laughed. "Whether it's true or not, the competition for the Rookie Lord title is still too far for him. Let's see how far this kid can go. Perhaps, as a commoner, he can enter the Trial Ranking and achieve a good ranking?"

Jiang Cheng is looking forward to it.

Compared to the second generation of rich people and the second generation of tourists, he hopes to see ordinary people stand out. Not only because he was once an ordinary person, but more importantly:

"Young man Mu was born into a common family and is an orphan. He has achieved what he has today entirely through his own hard work. Only people like him can go far and have even a slight chance to reach the top."

Chapter 41 A large amount of supplies have arrived

"Mr. Mu, the supplies for the welfare gift package are all inside. You can check them yourself by referring to the list."

"There's one more thing to note. The Association recommends that new players send these supplies to the Eternal World as soon as possible. Don't keep them on your person. Even if you want to trade with other players, try to do it within the Association to prevent any unexpected situations."

Mu Yuan understood immediately that wealth should not be shown off.

Even if some old players themselves have no bad intentions, seeing a pile of treasures dangling in front of them, while the holders are still weak newcomers, it is inevitable that they will have some ideas.

What's more, there might be some criminals who have already spotted this opportunity and are ready to strike.

Well, what he didn't know was that it did exist and had been caught, and the association took this opportunity to gain performance.

...

The staff member gave a few instructions and then pushed the door open and left.

He was given some private space to slowly count the supplies.

Mu Yuan looked at the storage bag in front of him, which was only the size of a palm.

This appears to be a piece of space equipment. Even if the cargo volume isn't large, the association's generosity is remarkable. Of course, the overlord likely possesses a complete production line, capable of continuously producing these "standard storage packages."

Mu Yuan opened it and took out the items inside one by one.

Suddenly, wisps of white light bloomed before his eyes, which symbolized the light of a miraculous treasure.

Mu Yuan had already seen the list of supplies, but when he saw the actual items in front of him, he couldn't help but feel excited.

"It's truly a massive investment. No wonder so many high-rolling second-generation gamers are vying for it, because it's just as valuable to them."

"Supplies can be divided into four categories: soul sand, residual souls, blueprints, and props. Soul sand..."

It wasn't a pile of shiny objects like gravel, but three pebble-sized gems that sparkled brightly under the light.

Soul Crystal. Also called Soul Crystal Coin.

Soul sand has a gathering effect. When a large amount of soul sand is piled together, these soul sands will slowly merge until a complete crystal coin is formed.

Soul crystal coin, one is equal to 1000g of soul sand.

Three pieces weigh a full 3000g!

He is rich!

But among this batch of materials, soul crystals are just very ordinary ones.

"For the residual souls, there are 10 two-star sentinels and 10 two-star archers."

Sentinels are the main defensive unit and have a larger shield.

Archers are naturally a very valuable ranged unit in the early game. Even at two stars, Archers are much stronger than the Goblin Spearmen next door.

After thinking about it, Mu Yuan was not prepared to sell these 20 residual souls in exchange for little skeletons and slimes.

Replacing the remaining soul is time-consuming and laborious, and most importantly...

Sentinels and Archers are both very useful.

Especially archers, who could make up for the lack of long-range firepower in the current territory. He had thought about buying them before, but soul sand was scarce and difficult to buy.

Archers are a rare commodity.

"With these ten sentinels and ten archers, my territory will feel more humane, right?"

Of course, it is also more difficult to support them.

Human soldiers are much more delicate than skeletons and slimes.

Mu Yuan felt that he had to adapt first, otherwise, how would he feed and manage the more troublesome civilians of the Eternal World in the future?

"Next, the most precious miracle blueprints. There are ten of them! Where did the association get so many miracle blueprints? Could it be that miracle blueprints can also be mass-produced? They are truly that powerful."

「Watchtower (Normal)」×4

"Explanation: Can station up to two ranged units, increasing their range by 10%, with a maximum increase of 100 meters."

Arrow Tower (Normal) x2

"Description: This defensive building can fight enemies on its own without the need for garrisoned troops. It has decent single-target lethality."

"Household (ordinary)"×3

"Description: Living building, with the most basic living conditions, can accommodate eight units, but double the number is acceptable if you squeeze in."
