Chapter 13

Unless one is ruthless enough, like Su Yu, to sell Random Troop Building Cards,

there is rarely a chance to upgrade the Lord Crystal to Level 2 at the start.

However, Random Troop Building Cards are the opportunity for most people to defy heaven and change their fate,

so who would be willing to sell them at the start?

"That fool, how could he sell the Random Troop Building Cards..."

A woman in a white dress sat on a tree branch, gazing at the intelligence sent to her Lord Terminal, her jade lips lightly biting.

"Hmph, it's just a Rare-tier Elf Hero, look how smug you are..."

Looking at the picture of the beautiful Elf in the terminal, she couldn't help but feel angry.

Then, looking up at the Ice Phoenix circling above her territory, she said softly, "Su Yu... just you wait."

No one expected that the Legendary-tier troop causing a stir in the Blue Star Channel, the Ice Phoenix,

would be owned by a girl who looked utterly ordinary.

However, she was not ordinary.

Nor would anyone dare say that the Blue Star Princess was ordinary.

She is the daughter of the Blue Star Monarch, Gu Linger.

This Legendary-tier troop building, the Ice Phoenix, was drawn by her using 10,000 Random Troop Building Cards.

It must be said that the Ten Thousand Realms Battlefield, like other worlds,

has some people who are destined to be born unfairly.

After upgrading the Lord Crystal, the building limit increased to 100 structures.

Su Yu's next goal was to fill the buildings!

As for building levels, there was no need to consider them for now,

with the 【Twin Saintia Flowers】 present, quantity was quality!

However, his Lord Energy was nearly depleted, far from enough to build all the structures.

So he obediently constructed a Farmhouse, preparing to recruit farmers.

The 10-square-meter Farmhouse, besides being able to recruit farmers, could also increase the population by 2.

That is to say, one could build a Farmhouse without recruiting, using it for troops to reside in.

Farmhouses, just like the 【Hero Hall】,

unlike Defense Towers, did not have numerical levels.

The grades of the 【Hero Hall】 were also divided into:

Common, Advanced, Rare, Legendary, Shi Shi, and Mythical.

Six Grades; with each level up, the building's effects were enhanced.

For instance, a Mythical 【Hero Hall】 had an extremely low chance to recruit Mythical-tier Hero units,

and expanded the territory's Hero limit to 6.

Farmhouses,

on the other hand, had Grade C, Grade B, Grade A, Grade AA, and Grade AAA,

corresponding to Wooden Houses, Stone Houses, Duplexes, Apartments, and Villas respectively.

A total of 5 tiers.

Upgrading the level improved the quality of recruited farmers and expanded the population limit.

As for Troop Buildings, they were fixed in grade and could not be upgraded.

For Su Yu, he had no troops, so he occupied no population slots.

Therefore, he temporarily built only one Farmhouse.

Watching the white halo circling the wooden floor, Su Yu knew that was the effect of "Saintia Blessing".

Recalling the scene when recruiting at the 【Hero Hall】, he rubbed his small hands and shouted expectantly:

"Ten-Draw Recruitment!"

A flash of bright light passed,

and one by one, farmers emerged from the wooden Farmhouse.

The men were rugged and sturdy, each with broad backs and bear-like waists, strong as oxen.

The women were beautiful and fit, each as lovely as a flower, with slender figures.

Su Yu stared blankly at the burly men, looking at their fists larger than his own head.

You call this thing... a farmer?

"Greetings, my lord!"

Five men and five women knelt on both knees in unison, shouting loudly.

Their voices were very synchronized.

Kneeling on the first recruitment?

Surprised, Su Yu casually opened the panel of one farmer.

【Name: Zhang San】

【Identity: Farmer】

【Gender: Male】

【Talents: "Strong as an Ox" MAX, "Logging" MAX, "Mining" MAX, "Construction" MAX, "Repair" MAX.】

【Loyalty: 100 "Life and Death Unchanging"】

The farmer's information panel made Su Yu suck in a sharp breath.

Having multiple max-level talents was one thing,

but what the hell is 100 loyalty?!

Loyalty above 90 is extremely difficult to raise.

100 means that even if Su Yu dies and is no longer the lord,

this farmer will either die with him or hide his identity to build strength, devoting his entire life to avenging him.

How could recruiting a farmer result in 100 loyalty?

Su Yu thought for a moment and understood.

Because under the blessing of "Saint Ti's Blessing," the recruitment power was too great; even if the farmers were powerful, there was a limit,

so the excess recruitment power naturally went toward loyalty.

"Keep up the good work, do well!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Su Yu used his territory energy to construct a lumber mill, a mining mill, and a leather processing plant.

Then he ordered the male farmers to clear the barren rocks and build a passable road to the territory perched on the steep Shanfeng.

He couldn't let Sylph carry everything every time; it would damage the lord's dignity.

He ordered the female farmers to collect the leather from the corpses of the monsters they had slain.

Although the lord's crystal automatically collected the monster meat, the other parts of their bodies still held value.

"Bang!" A farmer punched a massive boulder blocking his path, shattering it.

"Crack!" At the foot of the mountain, a farmer delivered a whip kick that snapped a tree in two.

This way of chopping trees...

Su Yu was speechless; were these really farmers?

It felt like they didn't need the protection of arrow defense towers at all...
