Chapter 11: Genuinely Joining the Group

Li Yi rushed back to them and said as he grinned, Lets go, take me to see your troop.

Eh? Shi Hao was still bewildered, thus he asked, Uncle, what exactly do you mean?

Li Yi scratched his head awkwardly. Then, he threw the skill book that was dropped from Shifting Tiger to Shi Hao. He said, I didnt pay attention just now and misheard what you said, sorry. Lets go, since you have a troop then itll do!

Shi Hao lowered his head and took a look at the Powerful Attack skill book, then lifted his head to look at Li Yi. He suddenly became sullen. How could he even mishear!? What the f*ck!

At this time, Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao didnt care to go and get rid of Shifting Tigers new base anymore. They immediately took Li Yi back to the village.

Along the way, Shi Hao had already told Li Yi all about Twin Dragons Village.

Li Yi was pretty astonished. This lad was a newcomer who had just established a village for a few days, with the population of nearly one hundred people. Li Yi knew very well that building a village wasnt an easy thing to do. In fact, historical NPCs could establish a village by themselves and become an overlord. However, historical NPCs were restricted by the system, they cant enter the zone of influence of players Novice Village. The rewards set up by the system were mostly accumulated in Novice Village. For instance, the foolish boss, Red Tiger King. One could get a Village Building Order just by killing a few of the tigers. This was a great advantage for the novice which cant be found anywhere else. Shi Haos Village Building Order was also established thanks to the foolish boss, Red Tiger King of Novice Village. Therefore, itd be very difficult for historical NPCs to get a Village Building Order without the help of Novice Villages system.

Old Wang, come out quickly. Shi Hao said happily, Have all of our villages soldiers returned?

Wang Fu walked out slowly. He took a glance at the dark-skinned burly man and immediately knew that he was a historical NPC. He responded, After theyre done gathering food and water, they proceed to go out to temper themselves. They went to the place where the chiefs killed the bandits.  

Hearing Wang Fus words, Shi Hao didnt hesitate and hurriedly dragged Feng Tianhao and Li Yi and went straight to where the soldiers went. After all, if they waited any longer, things might take a different turn.

A few moments later, Shi Hao, Feng Tianhao and Li Yi ran across the 14 soldiers who promptly approached them head-on. As they could see, all of the soldiers have reached level 3. Among them, there were 8 fighters, 3 knights, and 3 archers. All of them were in unison and very lively.

This was ordinary. These 14 capable men had flourished their skills for the sake of becoming Twin Dragons Villages heroes in a few days. They received a great amount of love and respect from all of the villagers.

Pleasure meeting the chiefs! The 14 soldiers spoke in unison.

Li Yis eyes gleamed. He walked forward and scrutinized the soldiers from head to foot thrice.

Li Yi said, Nice! Nice! Nice! Youll follow me in the future. Ill be your leader!

The soldiers suddenly tightened the grip on the weapon in their hand, then glared at Li Yi sternly. They had no idea who this madman might be, because they couldnt size people up like Wang Fu could. Wang Fu immediately knew that he was a historical NPC just by a glance. It was also thanks to Shi Hao and Feng Tianhaos help that they could recruit and bring him back.

Take it easy! Hearing Li Yis words, Shi Hao spontaneously understood that Li Yi basically had agreed to join their force.

Shi Hao said, This is Master Li Yi, a new member of our village. Hell be guiding you on how to defend the village from now on.

Feng Tianhao smiled. Now, put away your weapons. Go meet your commander immediately.

Being given instructions by the village chiefs, the 14 soldiers uniformly obey the orders.

Li Yi hit his chest joyfully and took the soldiers to a more distant place to continue their training. That was because Li Yi knew very well that not long after the village was established, there would certainly be a large number of bandits gathering together to invade them. Now they should hurriedly destroy the bandits one by one while rising the soldiers level in passing. That way, they would be able to handle the latter problems more easily.

Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao didnt delay any more time, either. They promptly began their frantic levelling ups.

Eventually, Shi Hao and Feng Tianhaos rank have risen to level 6 consecutively after the sky had turned dark. They returned to the village and Wang Fu reported the villages circumstances in detail right away.

[Name: Twin Dragon Village]

[Village Chief: Shake the Heaven]

[Tax: 5% (affects financial revenue)]

[Population Support: 75+1 (affects residents working efficiency)]

[Public Security: 75 (affects residents security)]

[Reputation: 100+1 (affects the attraction of NPC)]

[Village Level: 1]

[Current Residents: 101/100 (one level 1 housing can accommodate 100 people)]

[Current Resources: 80 food, 60 water, 40,000 copper coins, 100 iron ores, 100 material stones, 100 lumbers, 100 gold]

[Current Armament: Level 1 Iron Bow*2, Level 1 Iron Sword*2, Level 1 Iron Armor*11 (some items are being equipped by soldiers)]

[Village Area: 1 square kilometer]

[Territory Area: 100 square kilometers]

[Current Buildings: Level 1 Council Hall (Durability: 10,000), Level 1 Warehouse (Durability: 5,000), Level 1 Housing (Durability: 100)]

[Constructible Buildings: General Store, Tailor Store, Smithy, Lumber Workshop, Hospital, Military Camp, School, Dock, Market, Stargazing Platform]

[Resources Required for Upgrade: 10,000 copper coins, 1,000 iron ores, 1000 material stones, 1000 lumbers, 1000 gold]

In summary, as long as they could keep the balance between the consumption and collection of food and water, they could have some more surplus every day. The population was also growing larger and larger. Nevertheless, public security and popular support were also growing. At least in the last few days, there werent any cases of life-threatening incidents. Better yet, most of the villagers residents consisted of strategists! Their efficiency was pretty good. They have put the villages farmland under the plough, and they would also restore the well in a few days. 

Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao felt relieved upon seeing the maintenance of the villages activities had essentially prevailed.

However, this was only the first step towards success. The buildings in the village were yet to be established. The number of housing wasnt enough, which might result in someone sleeping rough on the streets. If the number of homeless people increased, the public security would decrease and they might lose population support. If this problem persisted, it would cause a commotion, which would result into the entire village being completely wrecked down by its own villagers. At that time, everything would return to zero in a night. Fortunately, Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao need not to worry too much about these things, because the NPCs given by the system have great capabilities. 

Wang Fu promptly reminded them, Village chiefs, since the problem about basic maintenance of the village has been resolved. Next, its time for us to further develop the village. The utmost priority is to expand the housing, then general store, smithy, and tailor shop were second priority. Without housing, the villagers wont work hard and would be prone to cause chaos. Without a general store, smithy, and tailor shop, we wont be able to provide gears for the soldiers. Our military strength is fundamental for survival, so we must strengthen it as soon as possible.

Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao clearly had no objection.

Shi Hao pursed his lips into a grin, then said, What Old Wang said is right. You have full authorities to handle these. Were pretty much at ease thanks to you. Hehe.

Wang Fu was deeply moved, he was grateful to tears. He left after bidding his farewell.

It could be said that even though the NPCs had intelligent personification, they didnt have shambles of thoughts like the players. Within the game systems settings, the NPCs value was very simple. As long as the player was sincere towards the NPC, the NPC would also be sincere towards the player. Certainly, there would be exceptions for some historical NPCs with their own distinctive traits.

Right at this moment, Li Yi came back with his troop of 14 soldiers.
