Chapter 24

He believes that if there are people with big family backgrounds among the top ten promotions, they must be considering the same thing at this moment.

In fact, Chen Ping's guess was not wrong at all.

In the lush green territory, Natasha clasped her hands together, making a prayer gesture in front of her chest.

And behind her, the territory was bathed in light, sublimating and evolving.

The little elf butler Mifaer was beside her.

"How is it, Lord, are we first!"

"Hehe, little Mifaer, no, we are only fourth."

Mifaer pouted in surprise, with an expression of disbelief.

"Lord, you used the Spring of Life, how could it not be first!"

"And even if it's not first, at least it should be top three, how could it be fourth!"

The little elf butler flew around Natasha, looking very excited.

And Natasha was quite calm, with a serene smile on her face.

She put away the crystal bottle placed in front of her.

This tiny bottle had no more than 100 milliliters of liquid left inside.

But Natasha was very careful and solemn.

This is the holy water of the half-elf race, the Spring of Life.

A famous heavenly treasure that is hard to find in the human alliance.

Natasha stood up and looked from the canopy at the mountains rising rumblingly in the distance, and the ocean appearing at the end.

"The last bit of Spring of Life will be used there."

"Mifaer, are you ready?"

"Ready, my Lord."

The little elf landed on Natasha's shoulder, looking at the ocean in the distance and said.

29: The location of the secret at sea

Lina was patrolling the territory.

Today was the third day she had come to the territory.

The Administrative Officer, who was quite proud yesterday, had become somewhat dazed today.

Because she was shocked to find that 90% of the population in the territory possessed professional abilities.

The remaining 10% was because those people were just recruited from the Population Hall.

And the individual quality of the people in the territory was very outstanding, far exceeding the level they should have at this level.

Yesterday, Lina watched with her own eyes as the guard squad did a weighted training session, and when they returned, their stamina and life increased by several attribute points.

How could Lina not be dazed by this.

She felt that everything she saw overturned the impression she should have of a primary territory.

And she also discovered the changes in herself.

After returning to her room last night, Lina self-studied Warlock knowledge, and found that the efficiency was extremely high.

Some obscure knowledge points that were difficult to understand in the past had bursts of inspiration last night, breaking through one after another.

"Administrative Officer Lina, Lord and Sword-Holding Officer are about to set off, calling you over."

"Hmm? Oh, okay."

A commoner came to Lina and said, and Lina immediately recovered from her dazed state.

She headed toward the city gate.

The territory is now surrounded by city walls, and diamond-shaped protruding bunkers are being built at the four corners.

Because Chen Ping had made plans from the beginning, the roads were crisscrossed and smooth, and Lina soon arrived at the city gate.

She saw Li Xu, Alchemist Mai Er, and others were all there, and a boat was placed beside them.

This was built by Chen Ping in the past two days, and the blueprints and everything were designed by himself.

Dozens of laborers were waiting on the side, responsible for pushing the boat with wheels to the seaside later.

"Lina, you're here, during the time I'm away, the daily operation of the territory is up to you."

Chen Ping saw Lina and waved at her with a smile.

Lina's expression was complex; she first bowed to Chen Ping, and then looked at the boat beside her.

Before, when Chen Ping proposed to go out to sea, Lina was also opposed.

But since Chen Ping and Milan were both going, Lina's opposition was invalid.

"I hope the Lord will take his own safety as the top priority."

Lina looked at Chen Ping with complex eyes.

She felt that her Lord not only possessed extremely vast and profound knowledge, but also had an unfathomable mystery about him.

She had only been in the territory for a few days, and she was already convinced by Chen Ping, so naturally, she didn't want anything to happen to Chen Ping.

In her view, if Chen Ping stayed in the territory honestly, the development of the territory would be more rapid.

In this way, when the assessment starts, they will surely be able to enter the first echelon.

It is not impossible to finally occupy the top spot in the trial.

"Rest assured, I won't take risks easily."

Chen Ping and Milan mounted their horses, and the laborers behind began to push the boat forward.

A group of people came to the seaside like this.

Blue-gray waves hit the coastline, with no scenery to speak of.

Looking at it, the fog was surrounded, and the horizon could not be seen at all.

The boat built by the territory was not large, equivalent to a single-layer small yacht in Chen Ping's previous life.

The only advantage was that it was sturdy; Lina and Alchemist Mai Er both applied force field protection to the hull, which could withstand a certain degree of impact.

The laborers moved food and fresh water to the boat, and everything was ready.

Chen Ping gave another instruction on everyone's work, then took Milan onto the boat and went out to sea directly.

Milan was responsible for steering, and after raising the sails, this S-rank Hero steadily controlled the boat and went out to sea.

After leaving the coastline, Lina rubbed her face.

"Go back, during the time the Lord is away, the development of the territory cannot be slowed down."

"Yes, Administrative Officer."

Alchemist Mai Er and Li Xu responded.

They looked at the sea again, but found that the boat had become faint and could not be seen clearly.

On the boat, Chen Ping also discovered this problem.

Although he was sure that this sea was definitely not the Chaos Sea, it seemed that the influence of the fog was relatively large now.

"After going out to sea for three miles, the line of sight will drop sharply."

He recorded the corresponding observation results in his notebook.

There are many resources in the sea, and three nautical miles are enough for the territory to explore.

After he returns, he will arrange for wharf construction to develop navigation and marine fisheries.

As for now, looking at the clouds and mist drifting on the sea, Chen Ping felt with full concentration.

Because of knowledge, he knew that there were energy fields in this world as well.

If a place is different and exists strangely, then the energy field there must conflict with the general environment.

What he has to do is find this point of conflict.

However, Chen Ping underestimated the difficulty of searching at sea; he and Milan spent a week looking for it!

A week later, many territories in this trial also began to have Lords going out to sea.

But unlike Chen Ping, these Lords who went out to sea all had guards accompanying them!

Looking at their stance and clothing equipment, it can be clearly distinguished that they all come from noble backgrounds.

Everyone holds special props in their hands, guiding the direction they move forward at sea.

If someone could see the global map at this time, they would find that all those who went out to sea were territories that had been upgraded to Level 5.

At least twenty or so...

Among them, people like Lu Fei and Natasha were also on the list...
