Chapter 55: Murloc Ranger, Beginner Stage

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Returning to the territory, Jichen stood by the Murloc statue and the Fountain of the Sea Pixie, taking out the two recruitment cores of the Murloc Ranger.

Using them together, he inserted both cores into the ground.

After a moment, with a rumbling sound, two moss-covered stone arches emerged from the soil.

The mottled stone surfaces exuded an ancient and primal aura.

I Murloc Archway]

[Rank]: Tier 2, 5 stars

[ Recruitable Unit Type]: Murloc Ranger (Tier 2, 5 stars)

…..

[Weekly Recruitment Limit]: 21

[Current Recruitment Count]: 28

I Recruitment Cost |: 20 units of Wood, 20 units of Fiber, 20 units of Coa.r.s.e Iron

[Clickto Recruit]

Wow, that was impressive.

The initial recruitment offered 28 Murloc Rangers, and he could recruit 21 every week.

That was quite a high production rate.

But the more, the better. He needed a sufficient number to keep those Kobolds in check.

Jichen glanced at the resource levels in the territory.

There are still 1900 units of Coa.r.s.e Iron and 2000 units of Fiber.

Thanks to the diligent work of the Kobolds, the Wood stockpile has been acc.u.mulating rapidly. It hasn’t been long since the last unit upgrade, but the acc.u.mulated quant.i.ty is already at 1200 units.

All three resources are sufficient.

“Recruit.” x2

“Ding- Consuming 560 units of Wood, Fiber, and Coa.r.s.e Iron each, recruiting 28 Murloc Rangers.” x2

Both Murloc Archways were recruited simultaneously.

Spending 1120 units of Wood, Fiber, and Coa.r.s.e Iron in total, recruiting 56 Murloc Rangers.

The silent Murloc Archway trembled slightly, and a s.h.i.+mmering water gate gradually formed at the arch.

Then, the water surface rippled gently.

Murloc Rangers, with spines on their backs and iron spears in their hands, walked out.

Compared to the Shallow Sea Murlocs, these Murloc Rangers appeared more slender, lacking some of the strength.

However, their backs were adorned with neatly arranged spine protrusions, each measuring over twenty centimeters even when exposed.

Once they were all pressed and launched, it would be as terrifying as a rain of needles, piercing the enemies like a hedgehog.

But one similarity with the Shallow Sea Murlocs remained.

These Murloc Rangers were also noisy.

“Groa—groa!”

“Groagroagroa!!”

Hearing this, the nearby Shallow Sea Murlocs looked over in astonishment and began to make noise as well.

“Groa! Groagroagroa!”

Two different species of Murlocs were communicating excitedly.

“Hey, where are you guys from? Your bodies are so strong, it’s impressive.”

“It’s alright, big bro. The spikes on your back look pretty cool. It seems like you put a lot of effort into evolving them, right?”

“Indeed…”

Jichen felt like he was witnessing an encounter between two elementary school cla.s.ses on a spring outing.

It was incredibly noisy.

So he directly launched a powerful attack and quickly dispatched the Murloc Rangers.

He immediately sent them to the Kobold Caves and various resource points, replacing the stationed pirates.

Watching the Murloc Rangers leave in formation, Jichen pondered for a moment and opened the territory panel.

[Crown of the Ocean]

[Overlord: Jichen]

1 Level: Level 2 village (250 prosperity points required to upgrade to the next level, 1250 units of wood, fiber, and clay consumed)]

[Prosperity: 2472/250)

[Territory buildings: Level 1 lord’s residence, simple residential houses (7), simple tool room (1), resource detection tower (1), simple dock (1), new residential houses (10)]

2 copper mine (mini xi, small xi), Level 2 refined iron mine (mini xi, small xi), Level 3 Secret-Silver mine (mini x2)|

[City defense works: None]

[Military recruitment camp: Murloc statue (tier 3, 3 stars), Naga warrior recruitment camp (tier 3, 5 stars), sea pixie fountain (tier 2, 3 stars), Murloc arch (tier 2, 5 stars) x 2|

[ Number of troops: Shallow Sea Murlocs (25), Naga Warriors (20), Elite Pirates (80), Sea Pixies (14), Murloc Ranger (56))

[Hero: Siren: Alice (blue excellent). Human: Panther (Aspiring-Hero)

[Territory size: 200 x 200 (m)]

[Resources: Wood (86 units), fiber (1240 units), stone (1010 units), clay (716 units), crude iron (680 units), star iron (40 units)]

I Food Storage: Meat (23058 units)]

[Territory Protection: Gift of the Sea (The subjects and soldiers can catch more fish in the sea, and their sense of direction and swimming in the sea will be greatly improved) I

[Territory Specialties: Precious Jungle Wood (4-star specialty), Fine Coffee Bean (4-star specialty), Golden Ba.s.s (2-star specialty))

After this period of conquests, the attributes on the territory panel have undergone many changes compared to before.

The Prosperity has surpa.s.sed the threshold of 2000 points.

Each ordinary native contributes at least 1 point of Prosperity. With 410 people, that adds up to 410 points.

As for each enslaved Kobold, they can only contribute half a point of Prosperity, which means 640 Kobolds have still added a significant 340 points.

Therefore, it can be antic.i.p.ated that many players, like him, will forcibly enslave other races to increase Prosperity.

In addition to that, the newly occupied dozen resource points have also added a large amount of Prosperity.

Particularly, the two Mithril mines are estimated to have added a three-digit number of points.

He carefully browsed through the panel.

A smile appeared on his face.

During this time, he had accomplished quite a lot.

His gaze s.h.i.+fted.

The territory is currently at Level 2 Village. To upgrade it to Level 3 Village, he would need 250 points of Prosperity, in addition to 1250 units of Wood, Fiber, and Clay each.

Compared to the upgrade from Level 1 to Level 2, the resources required have increased by 250 units each.

From this, a bold speculation can be made.

Upgrading from Level 3 Village to Level 4 Village required 1500 units of each resource, and from Level 4 to Level 5, it was 1750 units.

So, to upgrade from Level 5 Village to Level 1 Town, it would have required 2000 units of each resource.

After calculating, the total amount of Wood, Fiber, and Clay needed for the Ocean Crown to reach Level 1 Town was 5250 units.

…..

Jichen nodded to himself, having a clear understanding, and made a mental note to prioritize the territory upgrade in his schedule.

The territory level not only significantly expanded the territory’s range but also determined the types of buildings that could be constructed.

In simple terms, a Village-level territory could only have Village-level buildings, such as basic dwellings and simple docks. Overall, the variety of constructible buildings was limited, and the additional effects they provided were quite modest.

On the other hand, a Town-level territory allowed for the construction of Town-level buildings, such as harbors that accommodated medium and large-sized s.h.i.+ps, blacksmith workshops, and various supporting facilities. At the Town level, the content of territory development gradually became more diverse.

At that time, he was still in the beginner stage as a player..
