After I completed the Heavenly Halberd Quest, it also meant that I had entered another era.
At the beginning of the game, players who did not have any fame or achievements would not be able to meet the historical figures of the Three Kingdoms even if they knew the exact location of the historical figures. The players could only stand in front of the historical figures 'homes like small fans, hoping to see the people they had admired for a long time.
On the other hand, Lord players had to focus all their attention on their own villages. The only people they interacted with were NPCs whose abilities were only one or two points higher than commoners, as well as some unknown town mayors. As for the so-called big cities in the system, the village mayors did not have much time to visit, let alone interact.
Hence, there seemed to be a huge gap between the players and the history of the three kingdoms. It felt as if they were close at hand, but they had nothing to do with each other. When I completed the Heavenly Halberd quest, it meant that there was a bridge between the two. It was not that I could not walk, but if there was a slight mistake, I would fall into a bottomless abyss…
While everyone was speculating about the future, the surrounding environment was slowly changing because of the fusion of the two. The Three Kingdoms era was also slowly changing…
Ever since the game was released, the number of players in the game had continued to increase. Coupled with the promotion around the world, the era of players rarely seen in the wilderness had come to an end.
In the 13 states of the world, large and small leveling parties had appeared. There were even parties with more than 100 people. Other than the village blueprints that would drop from time to time, this also affected the number of villages that appeared. According to the unofficial statistics of some bored players on the forum, as long as a player walked in the same direction, they would definitely encounter a village within an hour.
Unfortunately, most of the players were still around level 20. They could not be blamed for this. Without fighting, the adventurer players could only kill small animals to level up. However, the level of the small animals was not high, and the number was limited. Slowly, the players of the adventure department also had a lot of disputes over the leveling points.
Most of the village chiefs were silent about this matter. Everyone was afraid of trouble. Moreover, they were still in the village stage. Who would be willing to become enemies with another village for an ordinary player, or even start a war, which would affect the development of the village? Moreover, as long as the other party did not affect the development of their village, they really did not care how many players were killed by others.
Villages rose everywhere, but players who could not get a strong backing could only seek other ways to survive. In the game, some guilds formed by players gradually appeared. The largest ones were the Iron Blood Union in Western Liang, the Wind and Cloud Gang in Yangzhou, and the Water Mirror Manor in Jing State.
On the other hand, at first, the demands of the village chiefs were limited to a few dozen units of wood, some food for the NPCs in the village, and a few gold coins. Even if the two small villages were close to each other, there would not be any disputes.
However, after the village started to develop, the demand gradually increased. It had also increased from a small lumberyard in the past to a strategic point where it needed to develop minerals. It was also time to expand…
.......
The size of the territory was divided into four levels-city, county, town, county, and village. The size of a village was also divided into five levels, and the upper limit of a village's military strength was one-tenth of the village's population. The upper limit was 5, 10, 50, 100, and 500. This also meant that even the number one village in the world, Ocean Village, only had a measly 100 system soldiers. As for ordinary second and third-rate villages, they only had 5-50 system soldiers. This number of soldiers was probably only enough to maintain the basic security of the village. Therefore, the village chief's thoughts slowly focused on playing with the body.
In the eyes of the NPCs, players were cockroaches that could never be killed. In the eyes of the village chiefs, they were endless combat power. If a player died, he would lose a level. The village chief would only give him a little compensation. However, if an NPC died, it would be a death. Moreover, training took time, and their aptitude would also be good and bad at times. Not to mention the huge cost. Most of the village chiefs regarded the lives of the soldiers as more important than themselves. Of course, that was when the village chief was above level 1…
When a player dies, they will be in a weakened state for two hours. All their abilities will only be reduced by 10%. However, when the Village Chief's level drops to 1, the system will determine that the player no longer has the ability to rule the territory if they die again. The system will confiscate the player's Lord status and turn the player into an ordinary adventurer.
The Three Kingdoms Era was the most intense era of the Celestial War. The adventurer players hoped to lead thousands of troops to fight to the death on the battlefield instead of fighting with small animals. This point was also noticed by some far-sighted village chiefs, who pulled this group of hot-blooded players into the invasion war.
The world was also slowly stepping into the omen of wind and smoke rising everywhere.
..........
The information sent by the system stunned him on the spot."No way. I've read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms more than ten times, but I don't think I've ever seen a Torimaru invasion before the Rebellion of the Yellow Turban.”
In fact, this was also a small change determined by the system itself. If Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, and the others were in Jingzhou during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, would Zhang Niu Jiao and the other Yellow Turban leaders dare to be so arrogant? Considering that Lu Bu was in his prime, it would be strange if he didn't become famous. Why did he have to wait until Tiger Cage Pass to suddenly appear? Unless they weren't in Jingzhou at all during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and the system's calculations could only conclude that they were defending against the Black Pill at that time.
He no longer argued with the system about why Lu Bu had temporarily disappeared. In any case, with the system's usual behavior, it was already very grateful that it did not cause you any trouble…He lifted his halberd and strode away.
"Inhumans! Not bad!" A familiar voice came from a small room beside me. Of course, the one who spoke was the coachman who had caused me to fight the three historical NPCs.
Hah! I also forgot about you, you damned NPC. If I didn't come to find trouble with you, you should have been worshipping the gods day and night and begging the system not to remember. Alright, since you're tired of living, I'll send you on your way!
"What's wrong? Now that you know that I'm powerful, you want to come out and build connections? Do you think that nothing has happened? I'm telling you, I won't accept this! Those who should have left have already left. It's your turn now!”
People no longer talked to each other and used weapons to determine who was better!
"Wait!"
I stopped waving my halberd and wanted to see if this NPC had any last words.
"Strange Man, Jin Yang values martial arts. To gain the respect of others here, it's not important whether you have connections or not. It depends on your ability! Now you have the resources to learn riding! To tell you the truth, Jinyang of Bingzhou has been fighting against the Xiongnu and Wuwan for generations. If you let a person without enough ability learn how to ride, wouldn't it harm the precious horse?”
I thought about it, and the other party actually had a point. If everyone could become a cavalry, then what was there to look forward to? However, horsemanship came and went just to be able to ride a horse. I also wanted to know, what was your so-called qualification for? Could it be that your horsemanship was better than others? What mission must I complete before I can learn it?
"How do I know if your horsemanship is truly unparalleled? I was cheated by an NPC in Hanoi just now. You businessmen, which one of you isn't greedy? Don't pretend in front of me!”
The horse groom NPC who had calmed down turned red once again. The long whip was like a large blade, ruthlessly whipping a small stone beside it into two halves. I was stunned.
"I'm not a businessman, but a man who loves horses! Don't lump Sir System together with those greedy fatties!”
Making trouble in front of me? Do you think I can't? You know how to cut rocks, but I don't? He immediately retorted," Nonsense! I want to learn horsemanship. Then, are you not going to charge me for it? Don't pretend to be righteous if you want to charge me for it!"”
"If you don't want to accept it, then don't accept it. I don't care about a few stinking money!”--
