After the successful upgrade and expansion of Invincible City this time, the actual coverage area had expanded by four times.
Looking at the cross-sectional area, it was sixteen times larger.
Looking at the overall volume of the cubic area, it was sixty-four times larger.
But for the time being, there was no need to look at this. Compared to the current situation, it was more important to look at the area covered by the area.
Twenty-four square kilometers was not big, but it was not small either. At least for the time being, it was enough.
The key was in the future.
Every time it expanded, it would increase by sixteen times.
Although it was only one and a half square kilometers at first, if it continued to expand like this, it would soon reach an astronomical figure that defied human intuition.
Besides, if I can maintain the settings in this area when I was designing the game, there may be even more dramatic changes in the future …
Zhang Dongyun calculated silently in his mind.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
The first upgrade and expansion was completed. Now it was time to think about the second upgrade and expansion.
Zhang Dongyun opened the mission system.
[Random Guardian Mission 2.1 — Kill or capture Eastern Tang General Du Kun who has entered the city.]
[The Castellan has captured Du Kun who has entered the city. Random Guardian Mission 2.1 completed. Obtained 400 experience points to upgrade.]
The first expansion of the city required 1000 Experience Points from the guards.
As for the second upgrade, it would require 2000 Guard Experience Points.
Now that he had solved Du Kun's mission and obtained 400 experience points, he still needed 1,600 experience points.
On the other hand, the construction mission required 2,000 experience points for the second expansion and upgrade.
However, he had 1,100 construction experience points before. The first upgrade used up 1,000 points, so he still had 100 points left.
Therefore, the Construction Experience required for the second upgrade was 1,900 points away.
Zhang Dongyun breathed a sigh of relief.
When he made the settings, he still had some conscience.
At least, there was no need to accumulate points from the beginning. Every time there was an upgrade, the extra points would not be automatically cleared.
Kindness was rewarded. Now that the system was his to use, he could enjoy this.
Back on the Blue Planet, if he had set the extra experience points to be automatically cleared every time the city was upgraded, there was a possibility that the game would fail and no one would play. Now that he was a person from another world, Castellan Zhang automatically ignored it …
He refreshed the construction mission list.
After completing the previous mission of acquiring 10,000 people, he could finally refresh the next construction mission.
[Construction Mission 2.1 — Establish your city's administrative department.]
Dealing with government affairs … Zhang Dongyun thought for a while.
This was definitely not like the City Lord's Mansion, where one could just put up a building.
He needed the right people to work there.
Castellan Zhang was not in the mood to deal with all kinds of trivial matters all day long.
I'll just leave it to my subordinates.
In any case, no one in Invincible City could deceive him.
However, the ability and competence of the staff needed to be carefully selected.
Zhang Dongyun pondered as he ordered the System to land the building of the Government Department first.
Before he let the surrendered Tang Army soldiers work as coolies to build houses in the city, he had already made plans to leave a lot of empty space in the city for the subsequent system buildings.
Thus, divine light descended from the heavens.
A huge and magnificent palace courtyard appeared near the Daming Palace.
The people in the city were all stunned when they saw the miraculous scene in front of them.
Although they already knew about the miraculous nature of this city, they still couldn't help but prostrate themselves in worship.
The golden light dissipated, and the last bit condensed on the plaque at the entrance of the courtyard.
[Please name it, Castellan]
Listening to the System's prompt, Zhang Dongyun was a little hesitant.
The City Lord's Mansion was already called the Daming Palace. Otherwise, they would also use the Tang Dynasty system. Three provinces and six departments?
I still have an impression of six departments. What are the other two provinces besides the Shangshu Province?
It seems to be the Menxia Province and the Zhongshu Province?
But I feel that using three provinces and six departments doesn't sound right …
Zhang Dongyun rolled his eyes, and a wicked thought came to him.
Would using such a name not match Chang 'an City and the Daming Palace?
Although he thought so, Zhang Dongyun still mentioned the name he thought of on the plaque in the courtyard.
The golden light finally condensed into four words.
The people nearby looked at the plaque with a confused expression.
Everyone looked at each other.
"Young Master Song, you are a scholar. What is written on it?"
"I can read the four words separately, but I don't understand when they are put together."
The scholar stared at the plaque, his eyes almost turning into mosquito coils. His gaze was confused.
"There are … closed … departments? What does' related departments' mean? "
However, a short and strong man next to him said casually.
"Chang 'an City was built by the gods in heaven. Isn't it normal that you don't understand the knowledge of the human world?"
The other people around heard and nodded. "Yes, yes, that's right."
The scholar blinked thoughtfully. "It seems to make sense."
His gaze was no longer confused. Instead, it was full of exploration and curiosity. He stared at the plaque. "I really hope to learn such knowledge!"
Everyone in the city was talking about it.
In the Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun was looking at the System's task list.
Sure enough, building alone was not enough to complete the new construction task.
He still had to fill in the new related departments with manpower.
His avatar, Mr. Dark Cloud in the image of the old man in black, was temporarily in charge of the overall situation in the city and handling miscellaneous matters on behalf of the Castellan.
At the moment, he could still continue to put the relevant departments in charge of the overall situation.
The key was the people under his command.
Of course, he couldn't just use people from the Hanshan school.
He wasn't worried that they would be disloyal, but favoritism was unavoidable and would definitely have negative effects.
Punishing them after the incident would cause trouble to Master Zhang himself. It was better to set the rules from the beginning.
Of course, as a reward for the Hanshan school's loyalty, their people could participate in the construction of the related departments in the first batch.
Hui Tianyu and Elder Zhao Zhi, who led the team to deliver food, were not talented in martial arts cultivation, but they were good at handling such affairs.
In addition to considering the people from the Hanshan school, he also had to choose suitable talents from the refugees.
Although most of the refugees were poor farmers, there was no lack of knowledgeable people who were unlucky.
Castellan Zhang was not in the mood to personally manage more than 30,000 people, or even more in the future.
He just needed to manage the shepherds well.
Regarding manpower, Zhang Dongyun suddenly thought of something.
Right, I wonder what's the situation with Wu Qiong from the Perak Dynasty. Can he bring back some surprises?
It didn't matter if it was someone who submitted to him or an enemy who came to attack him.
The Perak Dynasty Elder Wu Qiong, who Castellan Zhang thought of, hadn't left the Longling Mountains yet.
He had followed the Eastern Tang army and entered the mountains again.
Then, he saw the Xuanwu General Du Kun and the Tang Army under his command never return.
Wu Qiong didn't dare to get too close and couldn't see the details.
But he knew that the result was a complete victory for Chang 'an City.
And it was a crushing defeat without any suspense!
Wu Qiong didn't try to enter Chang 'an City again. Instead, he went down the mountain without looking back and rushed back to the Perak Dynasty in Tongzhou.
The opportunity for the sect to change had arrived!
Wu Qiong was unprecedentedly determined.
