“Do you want to consume 30 wood, 20 stone, and 10 silver coins to upgrade the Territory Hall?”
“What kind of nonsense is that?!”
Lin Yi's forehead twitched with a few black lines, and he urged, “Hurry up! Upgrade it now!”
As soon as he finished speaking.
The resources piled on the open ground, along with the silver coins in his hand, turned into specks of starlight and vanished.
They trailed a starry tail directly towards the small stone house.
Before long, a white light completely enveloped the former, undergoing a strange transformation like a decompression toy.
“A Level 2 territory can recruit farmers! Life is getting better and better!”
Recalling his busy day, Lin Yi began to feel comfortable all over.
A lone commander who needs to do all the work, what kind of Lord is that?
That’s a Niu Ma!
Ding—
He didn't have to wait long.
After one minute, a notification sound came from Lin Yi's mind again.
“Upgrade complete!”
“Calculating time taken...”
“Congratulations! You are the fastest human Lord to complete a territory upgrade in this session! Special rewards: Rare Troop Blueprint x1, 100 purple crystal coins, Gold Treasure Chest x1, Reputation +100!”
“Hiss, that’s quite generous!”
“purple crystal coins!”
“I’m rich! I’m rich!”
Lin Yi saw the three items slowly descending in mid-air and didn't even have time to look at his newly upgraded Lord's Hall.
He rushed without hesitation towards the silk bag containing the purple crystal coins!
“Holy cow, holy cow~”
He opened the bag and took out a purple, shimmering, dazzling coin from inside.
He didn't know if it was his imagination.
Lin Yi always felt that the purple crystal coin had a sweet taste, and he tentatively bit it with his teeth.
Hard as a rock!
It was genuine, but he didn't know what material it was made of.
If he remembered correctly.
People in the chat channel had just said.
1000 copper coins exchange for 1 silver coin.
100 silver coins exchange for 1 gold coin.
100 gold coins exchange for 1 purple crystal coin!
Converted, he already had a substantial fortune of 10,000 gold coins and 1,000,000 silver coins!
“Rare Troop Blueprint, I won’t bother with it for now; it doesn’t seem that powerful.”
Lin Yi tossed the blueprint aside.
He knew the tier levels.
Treasure chests were divided into Bronze, Silver, Gold, Purple Gold, and Legendary.
Rare corresponded to Silver level.
My friend, I’m looking at the good stuff today!
Lin Yi rubbed his hands and cautiously lifted a corner of the treasure chest; the contents of the box were like a bride entering her boudoir, her veil lifted to reveal her true face.
“White Robe Blesser Transfer Scroll”
Type: Light Element
Grade: Excellent
Effect: Use to transfer to a White Robe Blesser.
Description: A professional skilled in buffing and support.
Restriction: Cannot be used by Demon, Shadow, or Undead races.
........
“A transfer scroll, huh~”
Lin Yi narrowed his eyes slightly and gently took the scroll out of the box.
“Support type… and it’s Excellent grade. Forget it, I’ll keep it for now.”
Currently, his territory's characteristic was of the Supreme grade.
Now he had also gained upgrade rewards ahead of countless other Lords.
How could an Excellent-grade support profession catch his eye?
He didn't know if he could change professions later, so to be safe, it was better to save it for a future subordinate!
“Hey, the box didn’t disappear! That’s good, I have an extra storage box!”
Lin Yi gently stroked the Gold Treasure Chest, and after putting the scroll back, he finally remembered to examine his new house.
Looking up.
The dilapidated house from before was gone.
In its place stood a stone house, exquisitely built from bluestone, nestled among the lush trees.
The area had also expanded slightly; it could at least be considered a one-bedroom, one-living room now.
At the same time.
A soft white light suddenly appeared above the territory, transforming into a halo that spread outwards.
Everywhere the halo passed was brought under Lin Yi's substantial control.
In an instant.
His territory area doubled, and building facilities were no longer restricted by area!
“Let’s see what changes come with upgrading to Level 2!”
Lin Yi raised an eyebrow, about to open the territory interface.
Suddenly—
A thunderbolt streaked across the sky, illuminating the somewhat dim night!
At the same time, a notification message from a mysterious entity appeared deep in the minds and in the upper vision of many Lords!
“Congratulations! This session’s human Lord—Lin Yi, has successfully upgraded his territory first! Special rewards: Rare Troop Blueprint, Gold Treasure Chest, one hundred purple crystal coins! And gained 100 Reputation points! Other Lords, keep up the good work and strive for the second-place reward!”
“Congratulations! This session’s human Lord—Lin Yi, has successfully upgraded his territory first! Special rewards: Rare Troop Blueprint, Gold Treasure Chest, one hundred purple crystal coins! And gained 100 Reputation points! Other Lords, keep up the good work and strive for the second-place reward!”
“.............”
The message refreshed a full ten times!
Human Lords, no matter where they were, all stopped what they were doing in unison, checking the announcement with shocked faces.
The previously silent world channel.
Like a volcanic eruption, it once again stirred up a furious wave of discussion!
“Holy cow, it’s starting! The big shots’ show-off!”
“That’s not right, what’s Lin Yi’s background…? I haven’t heard of such a person in the Great Xia Imperial Capital; there isn’t even anyone with the surname Lin in the major families.”
“Awesome! It’s said that the Seventh Prince is also in this Lord’s trial… He couldn’t even upgrade first; someone actually beat him to it.”
“Could this Lin Yi be from some mysterious family? Rich enough to rival a nation?”
“Rival a nation my foot… Didn’t you notice how few resources were being traded in the market? Almost all of them were monopolized by those few big family scions. How could anyone else compete? Could he really use 100 purple crystal coins to buy a single piece of wood? The Level 2 territory upgrade reward is average; only the reputation is somewhat useful… This isn’t how you squander wealth.”
“The rewards are good, but they can still be measured by value… This Lin Yi must have used other means to get the upgrade materials.”
“Hiss, look closely at the rewards! Holy cow, Rare Troop Blueprint!”
“Holy crap, it really is a Troop Blueprint! And it’s even Rare quality! This is a huge fortune!”
“Quick! Who can help me contact that Lin Yi! I want that Rare Troop Blueprint! Just tell him money is no object!”
“Can’t contact him… That kid hasn’t changed his initial social settings!”
“.........”
However.
Just as the world channel was buzzing with discussion.
The voice of the mysterious entity rang out again, one after another!
“Congratulations! This session’s human Lord—Xia Jie has successfully upgraded his territory, ranking second! Special rewards: Silver Treasure Chest, fifty purple crystal coins! And gained 50 Reputation points!”
“Congratulations! This session’s human Lord—Zhou Yi has successfully upgraded his territory, ranking third! Special rewards: Silver Treasure Chest, ten purple crystal coins! And gained 30 Reputation points!”
“Congratulations! This session’s human Lord—Long Tao has successfully upgraded his territory, ranking fourth! Special rewards: Bronze Treasure Chest, fifty gold coins! And gained 10 Reputation points!”
“Congratulations..........”
Continuous notification sounds rang out.
But everyone's gaze remained fixed on Lin Yi!
The reason was simple!
This is it!
Without comparison, there is no harm!
