Chapter 111: Anina’s Return, Civil Construction (2)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Lady Anina, why are you leaving? Are you unhappy living here? We all hope that you can stay.”

“Although you ate a lot, we didn’t despise you at all. If you’re not full, I’m willing to give you half of my portion of food!”

“I’m willing to pay half of it.”

“I only eat one meal a day. I’ll give you the rest!”

“I’m not eating anymore. 1’11 give it all to you!”

They knew that Anina had an extraordinary background and possessed a body with strength and appetite that surpassed humans.

In the beginning, they did feel likes he was out of place, like an alien.

However, after a long time, everyone fell in love with this seemingly arrogant, but actually very kind and warm-hearted girl.

During the monster invasions, the girl would always stand up with her greatsword and kill all the monsters. She could not even take a step into the territory.

They had long treated her as a part of their territory.

Now that they heard that she wanted to leave, they immediately became anxious and anxiously asked her to stay.

“You want me to stay?” Anina was stunned when she heard that. When she saw how the residents were trying to persuade her to stay, tears welled up in her eyes.

In the past, she was alone and had no worries.

But now, there were so many humans who treated her as family. For the first time, she felt the deep feeling of being needed by so many people.

Seeing this, Ji Chen acted like an old blacksmith, striking while the iron was hot.

“Anina, as you can see, everyone can’t bear to part with you. Just stay here and treat this place as your home.”

Upon hearing this, the young Dragon Whale girl, who was extremely sensitive, couldn’t hold back any longer and tears streamed down her face.

After a while, Anina sniffled, her face slightly flushed, and her gaze wavering as she said to Ji Chen, “Since you all insist, I’ll reluctantly stay.”

“But you must make sure I am well-fed at every meal, or else… I’ll run away!”

Ji Chen was overjoyed and chuckled, “Of course! As long as I can feed myself, you won’t go hungry!”

“It’s a deal!”

“Ding- Deep Sea Dragon Whale (Human Form): Anina (Hero) pledges loyalty to you.”

“Anina (Hero) unit talent tree panel unlocked.”

“Ding- Successfully recruited three hero units. You have gained the Red skill: Persuasion.”

Persuasion?

Recruiting three hero units can also unlock skills?

Ji Chen was slightly surprised. With a thought, he opened his personal panel to take a look.

He found the skills section.

Besides the occupational skills, there was now a section for life skills.

[Life Skill: Persuasion (red skill) – Ability to persuade targets using language, significantly increasing the chances of surrender, submission, and conversion (effective only on sentient beings)].

It looked very good.

However, there weren’t too many surprises, considering he had previously persuaded so many pirates to submit to him, albeit through physical means.

But obtaining a red skill was still good news.

In addition to its use in persuasion, perhaps it could also be employed in negotiating with merchants.

With Anina successfully becoming a hero of the territory, one of his concerns had been resolved.

Closing his personal panel, Ji Chen looked at Anina, who was engaged in conversation with Alice and remembered something.

He seemed to have something to give her.

Rummaging through his backpack, he took out an amulet.

[Strength Talisman]

[Level: 4-star treasure (single)]

[Effect: Increase strength by 200% but increase stamina consumption by 100%.]

[Cooldown Time: None]

This Strength Talisman was originally meant to be used to rope in Anina.

Now that Anina had declared her loyalty to him, he could only give this amulet away as a gift.

“Anina, come over for a moment. 1’11 give you this amulet.”

The dragon whale girl looked at the talisman in surprise and asked in disbelief.

“Is this really for me?”

Ji Chen smiled.” Of course. Put it on and see if it fits.”

The moment Anina put on the amulet, she felt that the power she could control had increased by more than twice.

She picked up the greatsword and felt like she wasn’t holding anything.

Well, it was like she was holding a tree branch before, but now it was like she was holding a stick made of parchment paper.

With this, she thought, she would definitely be able to better protect the Lord, right?

“I really like this gift!” Anina’s face was filled with excitement. In the midst of her excitement, she suddenly tiptoed and kissed Ji Chen on the right cheek.

Alice and Ji Chen were both stunned.

“Anina, you…”

Looking at their bewildered expressions, the whale girl nonchalantly said, “What’s so strange about it? This is how deep sea whales express gratitude. Is there a problem?”

With those words, Ji Chen and Alice were left speechless.

In their minds, they couldn’t help but wonder, do deep sea whales really have such a custom?

With this matter settled, Ji Chen led everyone back to the territory.

He began to inspect various affairs of the territory.

Firstly, there was the issue of resources. During his time at sea, the resource points produced a large amount of resources.

Clay, crude iron, and stone filled the warehouses.

Especially when it came to wood, it was abundant and piled up everywhere, reaching a staggering quantity of over fifteen thousand units.

Here, they had to thank the kobolds once again for their hard work.

Due to their continuous logging, except for the coffee trees, all the trees in the territory had been completely cleared.

Even the surrounding forests had been felled, creating a lot of space for construction.

This laid a solid foundation for Ji Chen’s upcoming civil engineering projects.

He took out two building blueprints from his backpack.

[Blueprint: Large Water Fort]

[Blueprint: Wood Processing Plant]

These two blueprints were obtained from the mystic realm. The former required a massive amount of wood and a suitable location, which was not feasible to construct at the time.

The latter required both wood and stone, and the resources were sufficient for construction. It was advisable to build this type of industry-chain building as early as possible.

It was best to complete its construction and produce a sample product before Raymond returned so that he could assess its value upon his return.

The chosen location for the Wood Processing Plant was an empty space northeast of the Lord’s Manor. This area would become a functional zone in the future, accommodating various functional buildings.

Next, he opened the Territory Construction Panel and accessed the unique buildings of the territory.

[Territory Special Building]

[Jungle Plantation]

[Level: Special]

[Construction cost: 1000 units of wood, 1000 units of stone]

[Area: 50 x 50 (m)]

[Effect: Able to plant jungle crops and increase their yield]

It covered the premium coffee tree and contained it.

“Ding – The Jungle Plantation has selected premium coffee trees as its crops. The yield can be increased by 50%.”

50% of production meant that the production of premium coffee beans would increase from 2 units to 3 units per week. The bonus was amazing.

In addition to increasing production, the jungle plantation could also grow and reproduce jungle crops.

Twenty-five coffee trees would soon become fifty or even a hundred.

At that time, he would be able to produce more coffee beans and help him earn a steady stream of gold coins!

Ji Chen didn’t stop building these two buildings. He ordered more than ten residential buildings to increase the number of houses.

Now, the native tribes had all moved over and changed their appearance, truly becoming a part of the territory.

Wilus also reported the situation of the sea rice planted by the natives.

In the southeast of the main island, dozens of acres of sea rice had already been planted, and it was still expanding.

It was estimated that in the next week, they would be able to plant enough sea rice fields to sustain thousands of people.

After dealing with these more urgent matters.

Only then did Ji Chen come to the west side of the territory and take out three military recruitment camp cores.

One Tidal Sea Spirit and two Deep Sea Roamers.

Without wasting any time, he willed them.

The three cores each flew to a different place.

After digging deep into the soil, three recruitment camps immediately emerged from the ground.

The appearance of the Tidal Sea Spirit recruitment camp was like a signal tower, while the Deep Sea Roamer recruitment camp was like a massive dog’s den, shrouded in complete darkness.

However, Ji Chen didn’t pay much attention to their appearances; he was filled with excitement.

These two units would revolutionize his combat strategy!
