Another two hours passed. When Yang Rui saw the retreating figures of the militia, he knew that the danger of the monster attack was almost over! One had to admit that the Second Grade Stone Tortoise was indeed very strong. During the battle, it had jumped out of the trench several times. Yang Rui had to use all his strength to drag it back in.
Two fists were no match for four hands. The militia that had rushed back started a flurry of blows at the Second Grade stone tortoise trapped in the trench, exterminating it without much effort! This tough nut finally dropped a large tortoise shell, as well as two Grade Nine Pearls and a few tortoise teeth.
"Grade Nine Pearls: Can be used to make medicine or equipment."
Grade Nine Pearls all had some special uses. Moreover, tortoise shells and teeth could be used to make equipment. The numerous First Grade Stone Tortoises had also dropped a lot of shells and teeth, but this didn't make Yang Rui happy at all.
"My Lord, in this battle against the Stone Tortoises, our militia suffered a total of seven casualties … …"
When Yang Rui saw the militia returning, he immediately inquired about the casualties of the militia. At this moment, his heart was aching.
"System Notification: Congratulations to player Blazing Sun for successfully defending the village from the monster attack. One Checkpoint Blueprint obtained!"
The system notification that followed announced the end of the monster attack. As for the reward, it was only a symbolic compensation for the damage caused by the monster attack!
"Checkpoint Blueprint: Beginner. Construction requires 300 stones!"
Although his heart ached, Yang Rui, as the pillar of the mountain village, quickly made a series of arrangements after the monster attack ended. First, he comforted the frightened villagers and praised their performance in defending the village from the monster attack. In particular, Yang Rui was quite satisfied with Wang Hai, Chen Ping, Chen Li, and the others.
Next, Yang Rui and the villagers buried the seven militia that had died in the battle at the southwest location of the mountain village. They also designated that place as the graveyard for those who died in the line of duty in the future!
Before the first system update, NPCs did not have the concept of family and private ownership, so they were unable to give out the corresponding rewards or compensation. However, Yang Rui discovered that after he buried the seven militiamen, the loyalty of all the villagers had increased by three points. It could be seen that the system had given these NPCs a lot of attention to detail!
This time, the monster attack was quite sudden. The village was not prepared for it. Therefore, Yang Rui felt a sense of relief at the same time.
The monsters had caused some damage to the village. The newly built dock had been destroyed. Most importantly, they had lost a large number of militia members. However, the other basic buildings and all the villagers had not suffered any damage.
That was enough! When Yang Rui first received the system notification that the monsters were attacking the village, he had thought that the village would suffer even greater losses. He had even thought that they might not be able to hold on.
After everything was settled, Yang Rui arranged for the villagers to resume their normal production. He also let Chen Li and Chen Ping lead the remaining 20 militia members to continue farming the Companion Monsters. As Chen Li had changed his profession to a Tier 1 militia member, he could no longer lead the villagers in logging work. Therefore, the logging site was temporarily under the care of Yang Rui.
In addition, Yang Rui once again built the dock, hoping to find the location of the Velvet Stone Tortoise community as soon as possible. However, the area of the Black Dragon Swamp was very large. Whether or not they could successfully find it was another matter.
Of course, even if they could not find the Stone Tortoise community and the monsters attacked the village, it would still be over 20 days later. He believed that the strength of the village would have increased by a lot by then. If they were prepared, they should not suffer any great losses.
Yang Rui did not personally lead the logging team for too long. The next morning, after the refugee camp refreshed, a talent with the Beginner Commander talent appeared – Bao Lei with Talent B, Bao Lei.
After arranging for Bao Lei to lead the logging team, Yang Rui went to farm the Companion Monsters with Chen Li and Chen Ping. At the same time, he also chose 10 villagers with higher combat strength to level up and prepare to replace the militia members that had been lost.
After losing a portion of the militia members during the monster attack, they did not have enough manpower to farm 5 Companion Monster Groups at the same time. Moreover, the monster attack also reminded Yang Rui that no one could guarantee that accidents would not happen again. Under the condition that it did not affect the development of the village, it was necessary to accumulate more military strength.
After a few hours, Yang Rui alone brought 10 new recruits who had reached Level 10 back to the village. He spent 500 copper to change all of them to Tier 1 militia members. At this point, including the 20 people led by Chen Li and Chen Ping, the number of militia members in the village had exceeded 30!
After the change, Yang Rui originally wanted to lead the militia members to continue farming the Companion Monster Groups. Coincidentally, Wang Hai heard that Yang Rui had returned to the village and hurried over. He also brought along a refugee that had just respawned in the morning.

After Wang Hai's introduction, Yang Rui knew that the scholarly villager in front of him called Qian Qiang was not simple. He hurriedly opened the character's attribute window to take a look. He actually had two talents: Beginner Government Affairs and Beginner Commander! His talent was even Tier A! Wasn't this the "system's omission" that he had been looking forward to for a long time?!
"Commoner Qian Qiang greets my lord!" Qian Qiang clasped his hands towards Yang Rui, looking very humble.
"Don't be so polite!" Yang Rui stretched out his hand and pulled him back.
Qian Qiang's modest and gentlemanly behavior made Yang Rui feel more and more pleased with him. He could not help but give a few more words of advice, introducing the current situation of the village to Qian Qiang. Only then did he arrange for Qian Qiang to coordinate the various tasks such as planting, logging, quarrying, and so on. He was also responsible for the deployment of personnel, the arrangement of processes, the settlement of various resources, the distribution, the trading, and so on!
Finally, there was someone who could share the burden with him. Yang Rui almost assigned all the tasks that he usually had to worry about to Qian Qiang. Qian Qiang's performance did not disappoint Yang Rui. This could be seen from Wang Qiang's report in the evening!
"Reporting to my lord! Today, 22 refugees and 13 refugees have spawned in the village, totaling 35 people. Among them, 25 have been assigned to the sweet potato plantation by my subordinates, and the remaining 10 have been sent to the quarry.
Today's net harvest is 1,504 units of grain, 200 units of wood, 100 units of stone, and 315 copper coins. In addition, we have also obtained various dropped materials.
As of now, the number of villagers in the village who are engaged in sweet potato plantation has reached 197. The sweet potato plantation area is 638 mu, and the number of people who are engaged in logging has reached the maximum capacity of the logging site. The number of people who are engaged in stone harvesting is 50 people.
The current resources in the village are as follows: 572 units of grain, 416 units of stone, 1,480 units of wood, and 8,608 copper coins. Among them, we have sold 1,000 units of grain today, and we have obtained 3,960 copper coins.
From the perspective of the various resource requirements, I suggest that from tomorrow onwards, the quarry needs to increase the manpower investment to reach the maximum capacity of 100 people, so that we can reach the required amount of resources as soon as possible. If necessary, we can transfer the villagers from the logging site to participate in the quarrying.
At the same time, we can continue to increase the scale of grain production in exchange for the money needed for the upgrade. If there are talented commanders, the shipyard can also build small fishing boats. In the short term, we still have sufficient wood, so we can invest some manpower to increase the grain production channels. At the same time, we can also search for the location of the Velvet Stone Tortoise community.
Based on the current growth rate of the various resources and villagers, under reasonable arrangements, I have analyzed that we can reach the various standards for upgrading to an Intermediate Village in the shortest three to four days!
The above are some of my own opinions. If there are any inappropriate areas, please correct me, my lord! "
