After the discussion was settled, Shanhai City was in an uproar again.
Tian Wenjing personally went to the Mystic Bird Tribe to meet the Great Shaman. He explained the pros and cons and requested the Great Shaman to coordinate the settlement of the tribes.
If any tribe was stubborn and insisted on some tribal tradition, Shanhai City would have no choice but to deal with them.
No one could stop the determination of Shanhai City to eliminate the hidden dangers!
Bai Qi selected a battalion and stationed it in the Wolf Mountain Mine. He personally led the reorganized independent brigade to Gushan County to arrange the border defense. He also inspected the Third Division to appease the soldiers.
The next day, the Gushan County Magistrate Lei Fan hurried to Shanhai City.
Ouyang Shuo and Lei Fan talked in secret for the whole morning. No one knew the specific content of the conversation. They only knew that when Lei Fan left the Marquis's Mansion, he had a lot on his mind. He did not rest and directly returned to Gushan County.
The combination of punches dazzled the eyes of the audience.
On the 27th of December, Lei Fan returned to Gushan County and immediately organized the migration of more than fifteen thousand mountain barbarians to the west. They would move to the western suburbs of Shanhai City and build a settlement there to live and work in peace.
These mountain barbarians were the relatives of the mountain barbarian soldiers in the army.
On the same day, Bai Qi led the independent brigade to the military camp of Gushan County.
Bai Qi inspected the border between Gushan County and the Hundred Thousand Mountains. He began to build trenches, sentry towers, hidden sentries, and other defensive facilities. He pushed the defensive line deep into the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
Any movement in the mountains could not escape the detection of the hidden sentries.
On the 29th of December, the mountain barbarian tribes left their strongholds under Tian Wenjing's carrot and stick tactics. They moved to the west and threw themselves into the wave of development in the west.
Ouyang Shuo personally received the Great Shaman of the Mystic Bird Tribe in the Marquis's Mansion of Lian Province.
After not seeing him for half a year, the Great Shaman's health was deteriorating. He needed help to walk.
Even so, Ouyang Shuo still admired the wisdom of the Great Shaman. It was more appropriate to say that the conversation between the two was Ouyang Shuo's humble inquiry.
This old man's wisdom benefited him greatly every time he met him.
The high standard of courtesy that the Great Shaman received caused a whirlwind among the mountain barbarians.
Ouyang Shuo's action fully showed that he valued the mountain barbarians as a lord. He treated them equally and did not discriminate. He firmly implemented the policy of equality for all tribes.
This action also caused a small interlude.
The former chief of the Tianfeng Tribe, Dari Achi, who had been living leisurely in Shanhai City, represented the Grassland Tribe and requested for the Grassland Tribe to enjoy equal treatment in their territory.
Ouyang Shuo took advantage of the situation and promised that as long as the tribes of the grassland came to join him, there would be no discrimination and they would be treated well.
Amidst the clamor, December finally came to an end.
On the 30th December of the first year of Gaia, a system announcement resounded throughout the world.
"World Announcement: On the first anniversary of 'Earth On's' launch, the game will undergo an update, effective immediately. For the details, please check the official website."
Only Ouyang Shuo's heart trembled. As far as he could remember, there were no updates on the first anniversary in his previous life. His existence had already begun to affect the progress of the game.
Ouyang Shuo immediately logged into the official website to check the update.
Compared to the first major update, this update was more fragmented, more like a game patch.
[1] Added NPC aptitude settings: NPC aptitude is divided into four grades: A, B, C, and D. The higher the NPC's aptitude, the greater their potential, and the easier it is for them to break through the bottleneck of their profession.
Of course, historical figures were not included in the assessment.
According to the ratio given by Gaia, A accounted for 005%, B for 495%, C for 35%, and D for 60%. The exact number was affected by the characteristics of the territory, so there would be slight fluctuations.
An NPC with an A grade aptitude was a strong candidate for high-level talents such as high-ranking generals and grandmasters. They were also the most valuable wealth in the territory.
According to the ratio, only one NPC with an A grade aptitude would spawn out of two thousand refugees.
The introduction of the aptitude settings was beneficial to the Feudal Lords. It could reduce the burden on the Feudal Lords, making it easier to select talents. Although aptitude did not represent everything, it was at least a very intuitive reference.
[2] Removed the setting of Feudal Lord players being unable to leave the territory: Feudal Lord players can be like adventurer players. They can use teleportation arrays to freely travel between the various major cities without any restrictions.
Similarly, the players who settled down in the territory will regain their freedom of movement and can teleport freely.
The location of the second system auction was chosen to be held at the largest auction house in the capital. It was no longer an independent auction space like the previous one. It gave the Feudal Lords a platform to fully communicate with each other.
Ouyang Shuo was truly dumbfounded by this setting.
If he remembered correctly, the Feudal Lord players in the game were not allowed to leave the territory in his previous life until his reincarnation. How did such a change happen in just a year? It really caught him off guard.
[3] Changed the setting of teleportation fees: Teleportation to the battle map will no longer charge teleportation fees. Teleportation of players, be it between territories or between the capital cities, will cost a unified fee of one gold coin, paid by the player.
The territory will receive half of the teleportation fees collected when players use the teleportation arrays in the territory.
Ouyang Shuo heaved a sigh of relief when he learned that teleportation to the battle map was free. According to his current title, he was allowed to lead 30,000 troops in the next battle. Just the teleportation fees alone would cost 30000 gold coins.
Gaia once again found its conscience and sought benefits for the Feudal Lord players. If any Feudal Lord was open-minded enough to open up the territory to adventurer players, just the teleportation fees alone would be a considerable amount of profit.
[2] and [3] The purpose of the updates was to promote communication between players.
For the Feudal Lords, the difficulty of managing the groups of players who settled down or temporarily came to the territory would increase exponentially. Compared to the ability of the Feudal Lord, it would put forward a higher requirement.
[4] The nine capital cities increased the entry tax. The tax rate was 5%, only half of the super auction platform.
The capital cities increased the tax to encourage the Feudal Lords to open up trade routes through the wilderness, bypassing the super auction platform, and directly transport goods to the capital cities for sale.
Opening up trade routes in the wilderness was a step that had to be taken sooner or later. In the future, the super auction platform might no longer exist, and it would completely become face-to-face transactions.
[5] Removed the setting of not being able to gain EXP from the battle map.
Not being able to gain EXP from the battle map, especially the fact that soldiers could not advance through the battle map, had always been criticized by the Feudal Lords. Gaia finally showed mercy and removed this setting.
[6] Increase Rage Value Setting: The General specialty requires Rage Value to activate in order to take effect.
The setting of aggro was undoubtedly a weakness for historical Generals. The specialties that a General possessed were no longer permanent buffs. In theory, one could only choose to activate one specialty at a time.
Ouyang Shuo could not help but speculate that Gaia's updating of this setting was specifically targeted at him. In his previous life, no Feudal Lord had managed to recruit so many historical Generals in the first year.
[7] Special Bandit Camp setting: A large number of Special Bandit Camps will randomly spawn in the wilderness. Special bandit camps will have more than 10,000 people.
The high-level bandit camps in the wilderness are no match for the territorial army. In order to increase the difficulty of the game, Gaia came up with a bad idea and created a Special Bandit Camp.
[8] Added hidden job setting: Be it an Adventurer job or a lifestyle job, they all have a special inherited job, which is the so-called hidden job.
Gaia did not reveal the specific job, so it was up to the players to figure it out themselves. Gaia also made it clear that at the annual auction, a hidden job Trial Scroll would be publicly auctioned.
The Adventurer players, who did not pay much attention to the auction, began to look forward to the auction the next day as if they were on steroids.
It had to be noted that the inherited job was not limited to players. NPCs could also take up the job.
[9] Added secret realms setting: The wilderness will randomly spawn some secret realms at random times, waiting for players to explore. Once a secret realm is cleared, it will disappear forever.
By exploring a secret realm, there is a chance to obtain divine weapons or martial arts manuals. Everything is possible.
Apart from the secret realms spawned in the wilderness, there is also an item called a "secret realm map." It can directly activate a temporary secret realm, allowing players to easily clear it without any competition.
This was another setting targeted at Adventurer players. It meant that Adventurer players were beginning to receive Gaia's attention. They were finally no longer the stepchildren.
[10] Added Fortuitous Encounter Mission setting: Either the capital or the wilderness can trigger a Fortuitous Encounter Mission.
When players create a character and choose a random spawn location, it is possible to trigger the Fortuitous Encounter System. Unfortunately, players had just entered the game and were powerless. Even if they were lucky and triggered a Fortuitous Encounter, there was a high chance that they would die tragically due to a lack of strength.
It was different now. Players' strength had improved by leaps and bounds, and they had the ability to complete Fortuitous Encounter Missions.
In short, from this day forth, the gaming lives of Adventurer players would become more colorful.
Instantly, be it the forums or the national channel, they were all taken over by Adventurer players.
"Boohoo! It's finally time for us Adventurer players to stand out!"
"The wheels of history roll forward, and a new generation replaces the old!!!!"
"Don't say I have no clothes, I want to snatch the headlines with you!!!!"
Ouyang Shuo was shot down even though he was lying down.
"Liberating serf, sing! Sing! Black is black!!!!"
"With the Fortuitous Encounter in hand and the manuals in hand, I'm invincible!!!!"
"Cliff Jumping Team! Hey, sign up quickly!!!!"
"Great God Gaia has finally remembered us. It's not easy!!!!"
"Fearless First Year Gang Leader of the School is recruiting lackeys. I won't be waiting after the deadline!!!!"
…
Ouyang Shuo was not in the mood to pay attention to the revelry of Adventurer players. He was thinking about how the update would affect the development of the territory, and how it would affect his plans. (To be continued.)
