Dafei came to the cockpit to commend Catalina for her achievements.
Catalina laughed and said, "I should thank the captain for giving me such a chance to command. I used to want to command a ship alone, but my father was worried and didn't let me."
Dafei chuckled and said, "Father's love is deep!" If it was in real life, with my relationship with Catalina, I'm afraid I'd be like this too. I'd probably call that brawny man with a knife scar daddy, right?
Catalina smiled and said, "This should be the last trip. The demon troops have begun to enter the lake again, but they don't have boats or facilities, so they won't pose a threat for the time being."
Dafei nodded. "As expected." Looks like this city-building mission doesn't leave me much time to develop peacefully. Now that he had come to the end of using local materials, what should he do next?
Soar approached the island in the middle of the lake. The island in the middle of the lake was filled with stone materials. The simple pier made of stone materials had already been repaired. Hundreds of Level 6 Dryads were slowly and orderly constructing the fortress under the command of the construction officer.
Damn, who said it was difficult to send troops down from above? Didn't they have the goods now? It was a pity that the dozens of Lords of the Abyss were wasted. Otherwise, they would have been strong laborers.
The arrival of Soar won a round of applause from the officers.
Dafei got off the boat and said, "Thank you for your hard work!"
The officers smiled and said, "Congratulations, Your Excellency. The Kingdom's appointment order has been issued. The Kingdom is very satisfied with Your Excellency's quick and effective handling of the matter, and has officially appointed Your Excellency as the City Lord of the Light City!"
— System Notice: Congratulations! You have received the Lord of the Kingdom of the Elves Appointment Order, and have officially become the Lord of Radiant City!
What should come would eventually come back! Dafei laughed heartily. "Please rest assured, Kingdom. I will definitely do my best."
The officers laughed and said, "Since Sir Lord lacks manpower, although we are not talented, we are willing to be Sir's advisors and assist Sir in building the city!"
Dafei laughed and said, "Welcome, welcome. Of course, of course!"

— — System Notification: Kingdom's Military Officer Sirana has become Light City's economic consultant.

。。。。。
Holy shit, these guys have taken over the military, economy, population, health, education, culture, diplomacy, logistics, production, and so on! Yes, very good. The kingdom is very considerate, saving the players a lot of trouble.
An advisor was an advisor, a strategist, or a think-tank. It was not a specific official position. However, they could often provide a lot of valuable advice to the king, so even if they had no power or function, they did have the power to override all the other officials.
To convince a king, one must first convince his most trusted advisor.
In the game, consultants were the players' trainers. They would teach the new Lords how to build a city step by step. They were very helpful in familiarizing the players with the city's facilities and preventing them from making low-level mistakes. Of course, the Novice Advisor's advice was very strict. If a player considered themselves to be a veteran, they could choose not to follow the Advisor's advice. For example, the Consultant was most opposed to the idea that the open beta was a militaristic method, but it was a very effective method of survival in the chaotic New World. Therefore, he could ignore the words of the consultant.
At the same time, when the player's city didn't have any officials, the consultant could replace the officials. Of course, the Consultant would only exist when Dafei accepted the kingdom's appointment. If a player were to develop in the New World, they wouldn't receive such good treatment. However, the new Lords didn't have to worry. After the player obtained the Land Order, the player could apply to be a Village Chief in a small village in the kingdom and familiarize themselves with the feeling of being a Lord.
Dafei opened up the overview of the city. The general attributes of Light City were as follows:
— — Light City: Level 3 City
— — City Population: 3,539 Flower Demons
— — City Facilities: Level 3 City Walls
— — City Construction Facilities: Level 1 Fortress
— — City Officials: 13 Part-time Consultants
What a poor city. The level of a city was a direct reflection of its prosperity. Every time a building was added, the city would level up. At the same time, the buildings would level up, and the city would also level up. Some special buildings could only be built in high-leveled cities.
Dafei didn't have a plan for the next step of building the city. Of course, he had to consult the consultant.
Dafei asked, "Dear consultants, the devil's army has gathered at the edge of the Pond of Light. What should we do next?"
The military consultant replied, "Sir Lord, the devil's current strategic direction is the New World, so there won't be any high-level battles at the Pond of Light. At the same time, they don't have a base or logistics. They don't have the ability to break through the defenses of the Pond of Light and start a war in the short term. The devil's main goal is to monitor and restrain our army. However, if our defense is too weak, we can't rule out the possibility of the devil's sudden large-scale attack. Therefore, our army must build the city quickly and closely monitor the devil's movements. "
Dafei nodded, "I see." He was relieved as long as they didn't start a war immediately.
The internal affairs consultant said, "Sir Lord, the resources we've collected can only be used to repair the city walls and build the fortress. The next step is to build the military teleportation circle. Only then will the kingdom send a large number of troops to guard it. The construction and use of the teleportation circle require a lot of funds, so Sir Lord must find a way to raise funds."
The economic consultant said, "Sir Lord, the kingdom's current budget is mainly for the New World, so we can only apply for a level-1 military teleportation circle at most. If you want to upgrade the teleportation circle further, Sir Lord can only find a way to raise funds yourself. However, Sir Lord, you don't have to worry. The Pond of Light has the purest life energy, and it's the favorite of the Archangels. Once the purification of the Pond of Light is completed, selling purified water will be a considerable income. Therefore, as long as you can withstand the difficulties in the early stages, you will be able to reap the rewards in the later stages! "
The population consultant said, "Sir Lord, with the World Tree dormant, there is no possibility of natural population growth in our city. Therefore, there is no mass base to build the barracks. We can only rely on external help. The construction of the teleportation circle is urgent!"
F * ck, can you speak slower? It sounds like the system wants the players to pay for it! And it's even tricking me into selling purified water to make money!
Dafei hurriedly said, "In other words, the next step for me is to make money?"
The consultants said in unison, "That's right. Sir Lord only needs to do one thing, and that is to make money! The more, the better, the faster the better! Also, there's nothing else for you to do here. Remember to come back often! "
Pfft! F * ck, what the heck! However, building a city was such a good thing that it would be worth it even if he died.
The consultants said, "When Sir Lord goes out, you can go directly to the World Tree Square to meet the Kingdom's Chief of Staff, Lord Malfurion. He will personally award Sir Lord the reward for attacking the Abyss Blood Pool!"
That's right, it's time to receive the reward of the Epic Quest. I've been holding back for a night and am calm enough. However, it was impossible to expect to get money from him. He could only rely on himself to do business. Now that the big ship could not get out, the only way was to buy an ordinary ship. With my current reputation, buying an ordinary medium-sized ship should not be a problem. Or ask this Chief of Staff or Mayor Caroline to make an exception and give me a big ship? He should be able to do that, right?
Speaking of business, of course, he had to mention the godly business skill, "Navigation". Catalina had been holding back for so long to level up at level 30 to get a skill point. Of course, it was to learn the most powerful and most important skill!
Dafei took out the Navigation skill book and flipped to the Grandmaster level page. A golden light flashed!
— System Notification: Your sub-hero Catalina spent a skill point to learn the Grandmaster level Navigation skill "Navigation"!
— Navigation: The speed of the flagship determines the speed of the entire fleet. The captain or first mate of the subordinate fleet must have Master level Navigation and Towing to accept the Navigation of the flagship.
Dafei heaved a sigh of relief as his wish came true. With Navigation, he had truly stepped into the high end of the business world. Although he did not have a fleet now, he could get those ordinary players' ships to join him for a commission. This was how it was done during the open beta.
