Chapter 7: Problem in the Village (1)

Congratulations to player XX in Divine Flower Continent for establishing the first players village in Kingdom, XX Village. In order to encourage the player to continue their efforts, we hereby notify that the reputation of XX Village will be increased by 100 points, and player XX will be given three sets of chief executive skills and one a special item atlas. Player XX may check their inventory promptly. The systems beep could be heard thrice.

Shi Hao opened his inventory, then saw three skill books at one glance.

[Skill Name: Pacify] [Skill Grade: D] [Skill Type: Passive, no consumption]

[Skill Effect: Increase the population support of base area during the administration]

[Skill Name: HardworkingFunctionary] [Skill Grade: D] [Skill Type: Passive, no consumption]

[Skill Effect: Increase the efficiency of administrations handling]

[Skill Name: Reputation] [Skill Grade: D] [Skill Type: Passive, no consumption]

[Skill Effect: Increase the reputation of base area during the administration]

Shi Hao gave all three skill books to Wang Fu without hesitation, making Wang Fu become the chief executive of Twin Dragons Village where he would manage Twin Dragons government administrations in Shi Haos stead. This time, Wang Fus loyalty immediately increased significantly. After all, he was being given as many as three skill books. Those who could use (only) a skill book were the local tyrants, and those who could use three were fighters among the tyrants. Moreover, most of the NPCs in Kingdom paid great attention to feelings. Wang Fu who was treated generously by his chief was certainly moved to tears. 

At this time, Shi Hao didnt bother to nag at Wang Fu anymore. Instead, he hurriedly gave the special item atlas given by the system to Feng Tianhao.

This is After taking a look at it, Feng Tianhao was somehow baffled. He continued, A rattan armor atlas. It seems to be very powerful, but its actually very weak. 

What Feng Tianhao said was spot on. The requirements to use a rattan armor atlas werent easy. There must be a specialist who had learnt the armor making skills, and the mastery should have reached level 5. Only those who have met these conditions would be able to use rattan armor atlas and learn rattan armor making skills.

Certainly, such a strict restriction also proved the benefit of rattan armors. The items grade separations in Kingdom were standard, great, fine, epic, and legendary. Rattan armors were different from those standard grade items. They were of fine grade. After wearing rattan armors, the players Defense surely wont be that low. It could be said that it was far surpassing the usual iron armor, and it wont lower the players Agility like the iron armor does.

Shi Hao shrugged his shoulder and said, It cant be helped. Lets put it in the villages inventory for the time being. We cant use it for now, anyway.

Hence, with Wang Fu and others leading the way, Feng Tianhao promptly put the weak atlas made of rattan armor along with his copper coins and items into the villages warehouse. Now, there were 30.000 more copper coins, dozens of armors, five iron swords, and five iron bows in the warehouse.

Wang Fu was immediately blooming with joy. As the chief executive of Twin Dragons Village, he could be considered rich with all these things.

Shi Hao suddenly stated, The four of you, equip yourselves at once. Youll go out with the two of us in a minute to raise your level as we hunt for some food to be brought back.

The four people that Shi Hao chose were naturally two fighters, one knight, and one archer. This was the force they had for now. As for the strategists, they were better off doing their work as their profession suggested and train themselves to become experts. Strategists without skills were completely useless on the battlefield. As for archers, they would be the feed on close combat. Besides, NPCs were not players. If players were dead, theyd be back in three days (game-time). But if NPCs were dead, then thats it. There wont be any special circumstances, they wont come back.

Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao left the village with four fully equipped men in a formidable array. They were hunting for prey everywhere. Before long, a tiger appeared before their eyes.

For the novices, the tiger could be considered a fierce monster. Still, it was certainly not as powerful as the Red Tiger King.

Dont move yet! Feng Tianhao was the first to fight the tiger. Based on the fight against the tiger, he estimated that its Attack might be as much as 25 points. With Feng Tianhaos level, gears, and bonus with Shi Haos Soul of the Warriors bluff, he simply didnt fear anything. Feng Tianhao killed the tiger easily by himself.

Eventually, the sky gradually turned dark. After Feng Tianhaos restless massacre, the four NPCs rank rose to level 2. This was also thanks to the monsters around this area for being quite powerful and Feng Tianhaos amazing strength. The way Feng Tianhao killed the monsters was basically a single slash one after another, and two at most.

Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao returned to the village with a lot of tiger meat in their hands, which were spoils of war. Wang Fu had arranged the positions of the remaining five strategists. Two of them became clerks, who will assist Wang Fu with government administration. The rest of the three became skill caster, who will do some farm work in the village temporarily, helping the villages agriculture development. For example, sowing seeds and irrigating water. This would be the priority for now.

Generally speaking, the NPCs or players in the game will consume one unit of food and water per day on average. If not, theyll lose their HP and die just like that. Currently, the system has given the initial resources of 100 foods and 100 water, plus the tiger meat they just brought back. It looked like this would be enough for a while.

But actually, that wont be the case! It was because the population would increase. With Twin Dragons magnificent reputation as the very first players village to exist, the NPCs attraction would be pretty good. This would be certainly true in the first few days when the village had just been opened, where hundreds of refugees might burst forth. For one thing, the refugees were NPCs coming from other places. On the other hand, they were NPCs awoken in the village by the system, according to the reputation. Perhaps when the moment comes, Twin Dragons Village might be eaten clean at once.

What!? Cant they just reject the refugees?

They could reject players, but that wont do with the refugees. If they dont accept the refugees, Twin Dragons Villages reputation will immediately dropdown. Reputation was an extraordinary thing. If they had it, they wouldnt give it up easily.

Wang Fu said, Lord village chiefs, you need to build an armed force for the village as soon as possible. On the one hand, its so that we could resist the subsequent invasion of the mountain bandits. On the other hand, its so that we could go into a better place to hunt and collect water to provide more support for the village.

Wang Fu was very considerate. They didnt have farmland for now, so they had to depend on hunting to preserve food. It was impossible for the village chiefs to go out and hunt for food all the time. This kind of thing should be handed over to the lower-rank soldiers later. Furthermore, the village didnt have a well for now, and they indeed had to rely on the soldiers protection when reaching the water supply. The river on the villages border was a bit far from the village, it was quite a distance away. Without armed guards, they might not be able to go back anymore.

Shi Hao replied, Were thinking of the same thing. If there are refugees coming tomorrow, remember to pick some of them. We should set up a team of 30 people first, with five archers and 25 close combat fighters.

Five archers and 25 close combat fighters were the most Twin Dragons Villages armament could provide at the time being.

Wang Fu hurriedly left after receiving the instruction. Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao went offline temporarily. When the games time was at night, the two ate some quick meals in school and returned to the game. 

Incidentally, the function of the game helmet was very useful. It could automatically let people get the effect of resting in the game. However, the players still need to eat by themselves. As for the problem about attending class, no worries about that. In response to the governments order, all schools have issued written notices. As long as the students were playing Kingdom, they wouldnt be punished even if they didnt attend class. Whats more, the students who have made achievements in Kingdom will be elected as the schools advanced representative and will receive public appreciation.

After entering the game again, Shi Hao noticed that the sky was about to turn bright.

Thus, Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao took the four soldiers with them and went out of the village in a formidable array to go hunting. This was another day for them. However, the harvest this time wasnt small at all.
