Chapter 12: Discovering a Cave, Level Up

"Oh my god, Chu Ran has spoken."

"Remember this coordinate quickly, don't get close."

Who dares to question Chu Ran's words in this area?

You know, up to now, there is still only Chu Ran on the leaderboard.

No other player has upgraded to level 2, and various lists require at least level 2 to be on the list.

Chu Ran closed the chat channel and began to think about his own things.

Ten minutes later, Chu Ran called the village chief Zhang Laohan to the city lord's mansion.

"Lao Zhang, next you arrange the people who build the arrow tower, let them..."

Chu Ran told Zhang Laohan his ideas.

There are no special requirements, just to enclose the land.

The arrow tower is built around the territory with the arrow tower foundation extending to the stone.

After building a circle, it will extend 250 meters and continue to build in a circle.

In this way, as long as Chu Ran is given time, there will be circles of arrow towers surrounding the periphery of the territory.

In this way, the level of the arrow tower will not be upgraded in a short time, but the advantage is that Chu Ran will be able to know it at the first time if there are people or monsters approaching the territory from any direction.

And as long as there is enough time, the level of these arrow towers will gradually increase, who let Chu Ran master the fusion skill.

Chu Ran decided to build a few circles of arrow towers first and then consider the fusion.

"Yes, City Lord." Old man Zhang had no objection. He did whatever the City Lord asked him to do, and he was obedient.

"Okay, go and do it."

"Yes."

Old man Zhang left.

However, not long after, Old man Zhang came back again.

"City Lord."

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

There was a problem with building the tower?

In theory, as long as the wood is kept up, there will be no problem in building the arrow tower.

"City Lord, the people who went out to collect found the place where the City Lord said. They found a cave, and many monsters gathered and slept in the cave."

"Let's go and take a look." Chu Ran's eyes lit up.

As long as he can find monsters, his level can continue to increase.

Walking out of the City Lord's Mansion, Chu Ran met the farmer who found the cave.

After asking in detail, Chu Ran learned that the cave was a kilometer away from the territory.

Chu Ran did not go to check, but he asked the farmer who found the cave to go back and look for it.

Chu Ran himself controlled the Flame Tower again.

The Flame Tower has a range of 2,000 meters. As long as he follows the farmer, Chu Ran can naturally see where the cave is.

As long as there are monsters in the cave, this wave will take off.

The thousand-meter distance can be reached quickly with the elite farmer's footsteps.

According to Chu Ran's instructions, the farmer first circled twice at the entrance of the cave, and then ran away quickly, running a hundred meters away.

Chu Ran found that there were indeed monsters in the cave through the vision of the Flame Tower, but he couldn't see how many there were.

"Can this shot pay off?" Chu Ran muttered.

"Fire."

A fireball condensed on the top of the Flame Tower.

A second later, the fireball formed, and then the fireball hit the entrance of the cave.

A thousand-meter distance, arrived in 3 seconds.

The fireball hit the entrance of the cave accurately.

No screams, only flames.

The flames covering a range of 50 meters completely submerged the cave, and because of the underground space, the flames extended 50 meters into the cave.

Of course, Chu Ran didn't know how deep the cave was.

Chu Ran only knew that this shot was worth it.

"Ding, congratulations to the player for killing the monster, gaining 2308 experience points, and 1600 copper coins."

"Ding, congratulations to the player for leveling up to level 3, physical fitness +1, activating buildings, barracks, and blacksmith shops, increasing the territory range by 100 squares, and being able to build +2 houses, and the building level is increased to level 3."

"Upgraded!"

Chu Ran was overjoyed.

This shot not only upgraded the level, but also earned 600 copper coins for free.

"I'm busy again."

Chu Ran hurried out of the city lord's mansion.

Being attacked by the Flame Tower, the monster's corpse must not be left, but the things that the monster exploded must be recycled.

Chu Ran trotted all the way and headed straight for the cave.

When Chu Ran found the cave, he found a bunch of light balls floating at the entrance of the cave.

"It's rich."

Chu Ran immediately stepped forward and picked up all the light balls in less than a minute before opening his backpack to check.

A dagger, a leather armor, a blueprint, and the rest were all materials produced by monsters.

The dagger and leather armor were ordinary equipment, so Chu Ran put them away. The focus was on the blueprint.

The iron bow casting blueprint, after using it, can learn the ironwork casting method, which can be used by both players and game characters.

"Not bad." Chu Ran nodded slightly and put away the blueprint, then returned to the territory.

"Li San, come here."

After entering the territory, Chu Ran called Li San.

Li San, who was cutting trees, ran quickly to Chu Ran.

"City Lord."

"Let's go, do some work."

"Okay."

"Build houses."

Chu Ran commanded Li San to build houses, and when Li San built a house, Chu Ran immediately recruited three farmers.

Now Chu Ran had four people available.

Four people working together, the speed is fast.

Two people were assigned by Chu Ran, one to build a barracks, one to build a blacksmith shop, and the other two to build houses.

After the houses were built, Chu Ran used his skills to merge them.

Merging houses is much more cost-effective than using resources to upgrade, and it saves time.

When all five houses were upgraded to level 3, the barracks and blacksmith shop were also built.

Level 3 houses can accommodate 7 people. After Chu Ran recruited all the farmers, the number of farmers in Chu Ran's territory reached 35, more than doubled.

However, Chu Ran was a little disappointed that the newly recruited farmers were all elite-level, and there were no outstanding-level farmers.

Then, Chu Ran commanded the farmers to upgrade the level of the City Lord's Mansion.

While the farmers were upgrading the level of the City Lord's Mansion, Chu Ran ran to the barracks. The level of the barracks had been upgraded to level 3. A barracks can recruit 100 soldiers. The advantage of a level 3 barracks is that the recruited soldiers are level 3, and the cost is to spend more copper coins.

"Ding, the player has one chance to draw a soldier. Do you want to use it?"

When building a barracks for the first time, each lord player can draw a soldier. As for what to draw, it depends entirely on luck.

Speaking of luck, Chu Ran said that he is definitely a son of luck.

Lucky 7+1 is not a joke.

"Extract."

"Ding, the extraction is successful. Please choose one of the following arms."

1: Spearmen (Elite) 2: Archers: (Excellent) 3: Sword and Shield Soldiers (Excellent)

"High luck is really useful."

Chu Ran smiled.

Two of the three arms are excellent.

Then Chu Ran hurriedly checked the specific information of the three arms.

After checking, Chu Ran chose the Archers without any hesitation.

"Choose the Archers."

"Ding, congratulations to the player for building the Archer Barracks."

"Recruit Archers, ten people."

"Ding, consume 5,000 copper coins, recruitment successful."
