Woke Up to Find the Game I Made Came True-Chapter 150
Lord Ranking List.
First place, Bai Ye, Territory Score: 65,467
Second place, Zeta, Territory Score: 32,428
Third place, Xi Mo, Territory Score: 31,973
Fourth place...
The city is the final stage of a territory. After upgrading to the town - level, the score immediately increased by twenty thousand on the original basis. Coupled with the differences in the library and inventions before, now the score of Bai Ye City has doubled compared to the second and third - placed ones.
Just two days ago, Zeta and Xi Mo, who ranked second and third, had upgraded to the sixth - level territory.
The two cosmic - level civilizations thought that they were finally on the same starting line as Bai Ye this time. Moreover, Bai Ye Town's upgrade was even two days later. However, they never expected that this time, Bai Ye Town actually skipped directly from the town - level to the city - level!
Especially after figuring out what the construction conditions for the [Intermediate Library] required for upgrading from the sixth to the seventh level were, it made the two of them feel indescribable emotions -
How did Bai Ye accumulate such a high school inclination and complete the school knowledge? And how did he make the territory's professionals come up with inventions?
On the Star Network, players from various civilizations were once again shocked.
As the research on the territory gameplay increased, interstellar players had of course also summarized a lot of relevant strategies. At the village - level, with the help of players, it was no problem to complete two - level upgrades in a row. However, at the town - level, the difficulty of upgrading couldn't be overcome just by piling up manpower and resources.
Bai Ye actually upgraded two levels in a row again. It was quite outrageous, but thinking that it was Bai Ye, there was a bit of 'getting used to it' kind of rationality in this outrageousness.
For this reason, the intelligence departments of interstellar civilizations had summarized a rule: Bai Ye would disappear from time to time, but every time he came back from his disappearance, there would definitely be new major moves...
Meanwhile, with the birth of the first player - built city, a large number of relevant news analyses appeared on the Star Network. The three keywords 'Blue Star Server, Bai Ye City, Bai Ye' once again became hot topics in the universe.
[What's the difference between the first player - built Bai Ye City and NPC cities?]
[Research on the territory planning of Bai Ye City...]
[Is there any additional special resource in the Blue Star Server?]
[What new technologies will appear in Bai Ye City?]
[...]
However, no matter how curious and full of questions the players from various interstellar civilizations were, there was no new relevant news from the players on the Blue Star Server this time.
The news with the question [Why isn't there anyone on the Blue Star Server providing information about Bai Ye City?] kept rising in popularity and soon ranked at the most prominent position in the front.
You should know that in the past, even when Bai Ye Town closed its territory and did not open it to the outside world, there were still relevant intelligence personnel outside the territory to convey some of the situations they saw.
Now, when the whole universe was paying attention, unexpectedly, there was no new news at all. Some idle players on the Blue Star Server were even considering traveling a long way to Bai Ye City to have a look.
— There was no way. After all, most of the real 'active players' on the Blue Star Server were all agents, and they were still recovering from the damage to their spiritual bodies at this time...
From beginning to end, only the civilization agents from various factions in the Blue Star Server received the news of the probe from the Stellar Alliance. It was an unannounced secret operation, and after the operation failed, it was decided not to make this secret operation public. All the participants were issued with confidentiality agreements.
The confidentiality agreements of the Stellar Alliance are not just for deterrence. When someone wants to disclose this information to non - insiders, they will instinctively refuse. If they try to leak it by force, it will be recorded in some way and uploaded to the relevant departments.
So, ordinary interstellar citizens who did not participate in this secret operation were completely unaware of it. The players who participated in the operation would never disclose it voluntarily. Even if Bai Ye's attitude towards this event was to make the news public, the Stellar Alliance would not admit it and would only claim it was the individual behavior of the players in the Blue Star Server.
Then, what would Bai Ye's reaction be to the Stellar Alliance's operation this time?
...
The gentle sunlight shone on Bai Ye City and Ye Bai, who had been promoted to the city - lord.
"Lord" is an identity, while "village head", "town mayor", and "city - lord" can be regarded as the corresponding ranks of the identity. Now, Ye Bai could finally be considered a local lord in terms of rank.
Many people were curious about what had happened last night, but Ye Bai only said that they had dealt with a monster siege and did not explain in detail about the Stellar Alliance and the army of players.
However, people didn't ask further. Almost all the residents of the town... now it should be called the whole city, except for those in a few key positions, went to the fields to pick up the spoils.
Busy trucks were constantly moving inside and outside the city walls. Before the battle, the interstellar agents were all wearing their most powerful equipment and items. No one expected that this operation would end in a complete defeat. So now, the equipment and items they had painstakingly obtained through in - game quests and monster - hunting had all ended up in the warehouse of Bai Ye City.
Ye Bai then went to the Tree of Creation.
After the territory was upgraded, of course, there would be a series of "clicks". When upgrading from a town to a city, there would be huge changes in the technology tree and policy cards compared to the past.
Moreover, this time was particularly different. If the development of the territory in the past still followed the rules of ordinary carbon - based civilizations, then after being promoted to a city, it would truly step into the realm of extraordinary civilizations.
Ye Bai opened the technology tree. With the upgrade rewards and previous accumulations, Bai Ye City currently had a total of 87 points of productivity.
These points of productivity were the most ever, but when it came to the "expensive" city - level technologies, they still needed to be carefully planned and were just barely enough to unlock some technologies.
As the technology tree unfolded, its structure gradually coincided with the symbol pattern of the multiverse. This time, in addition to the basic ordinary technologies, there were technologies shining with three different lights.
Ye Bai's gaze fell on a technology where the three major technologies at the current stage intersected. He spent a full thirty points of productivity to unlock it.
[Rift Capture Device]: Unlocks the construction of the rift capture device.
The simpler the description, the more extraordinary the function usually is. This expensive device requires the first - order basic knowledge of three major schools to be unlocked. To put it more simply, its function is a dungeon key generator.
In the multiverse, apart from the initial City Building Order dungeon, players in the second - transfer stage hardly have access to real dungeons. It is only when adventure - type players reach the third - transfer stage and lord players' territories enter the city stage that they will officially start to engage with them.
By that time, killing the monsters naturally generated on the map can no longer meet the needs of the large number of players and their experience requirements.
Strictly speaking, dungeons are called "Void Rifts".
For adventure players, dungeons are places to obtain equipment and experience. After the third - transfer, players can exchange reputation for dungeon quests in NPC cities. After clearing the dungeons, they can get a large number of rewards from that city.
For lord players, various green - grade high - quality resources needed for territory construction are also produced in dungeons. Once a dungeon is captured by a territory, after clearing the dungeon, the territory can occupy the output of that resource point until all the resources in the rift are mined.
This is also the reason why NPC towns reward adventurers who clear dungeons. Whichever territory provides the rift key, that territory can obtain the resource point after the dungeon is cleared.
Of course, if the dungeon key is used but the dungeon is not cleared, it is a waste of resources and time. A new key needs to be generated, and the time spent on this is roughly the same as the time for resource collection, which is to prevent the abuse of dungeon keys.
In short, after reaching the city - level stage, the competition for dungeon resources will become an important daily activity for territories.
Ye Bai has already taken a lead of five game months, or even longer, over other territories in this regard.
After building the "Rift Capture Device" in the military area, a core location near the library, Ye Bai continued to unlock other extraordinary technologies, each of which cost 5 productivity points.
Extraordinary technologies will not be displayed if a territory does not have the corresponding knowledge. However, since Ye Bai currently has the first - order knowledge of three major schools, this is not a problem for him.
The technology of the Red Chaos School, "Blood Activation", the technology of the Blue Magic School, "Magic Pharmacy", and two golden alchemical technologies, "Primary Energy Extraction" and "Primary Energy Application".
"Blood Activation": A new barracks project is added. After blood activation, soldiers will gain an additional 100% combat experience within ten days, and the probability of breaking through ranks is increased by 10%.
"Magic Pharmacy": The herbal medicine house building can be upgraded to a magic pharmacy, which produces magic potions.
"Primary Energy Extraction": Unlocks the energy mine and the energy conversion pump.
"Primary Energy Application": Unlocks the energy transportation pipeline and the primary energy machinery.
Needless to say about Blood Activation and Magic Pharmacy. The most important technologies are actually the latter two alchemical technologies. These two technologies are the real ways to utilize the source energy crystal ore, somewhat like the transition from the steam age to the electrical age, which will greatly liberate the basic productivity of the territory.
After the energy mine is built, there is no need for manual mining. Instead, machines directly extract the energy of the source energy crystal ore and transport it to all production departments in the territory through the energy conversion pump and transportation pipeline.
Both the agricultural and industrial sectors can utilize energy machinery for production. Oh, of course, the streetlights in the territory will also bid farewell to the era of oil lamps and be powered by clean and bright energy sources.
Apart from extraordinary technologies, here come the new city - level technologies: [Primary Academy] with a productivity of 5, [Better Housing] with a productivity of 3, and [Artificial Landscapes] with a productivity of 3.
An academy is a higher - level institution than a full - time school. Better housing includes ordinary residential houses as well as high - class villas needed by the nobility. Artificial landscapes are part of the city beautification. After the upgrade to a city, if it wants to attract more nobles and tourists, these infrastructure facilities need to be improved together.
After a round of spending, Ye Bai was left with only 26 points of productivity, which she planned to save for territorial projects.
Just then, feeling someone approaching, Ye Bai looked up and saw Blaze standing not far away, waiting.
Blaze wouldn't have come to disturb her if there wasn't a difficult decision to make. Seeing this, Ye Bai stepped forward and asked, "What's up?"
Blaze quickly stepped forward and reported with a tense expression, "There are Blood of God practitioners active on the periphery of the territory. Should we drive them away? Or..."
No one among the territorial residents knew exactly what had happened last night, but judging from the large number of spoils on the ground, it wasn't hard to guess that it was related to the Blood of God practitioners.
Ye Bai was slightly taken aback, then thought for a moment and first asked, "Have all the spoils been collected?"
"All collected," Blaze immediately replied. "We found their traces nearby while doing the final sweep - up to prevent any omissions. Speaking of this, I also need to report to you that the territory's warehouses are already full. So we had to move the less valuable wood and stone outside."
"It's time to build some large warehouses," Ye Bai nodded and then smiled at Blaze. "Don't drive those Blood of God practitioners away. First, you go and select the best equipment and put it in the barracks' armory. Then, open up the territory and don't prohibit them from entering anymore."
"Sir, no prohibition?" Blaze was stunned and suspected that he had misheard.
Ye Bai smiled and said, "Of course. Then distribute the remaining inferior equipment to each department in the territory according to their approximate value. Let them pick out the troublesome and menial jobs and assign them to those Blood of God practitioners."
The territory was about to start a major construction project, and Ye Bai was worried about the lack of labor. It was like having a pillow just when she was sleepy.
In this way, Ye Bai could also experience the feeling of having players from most of the server in other civilizations work for her.
—Most importantly, they would be paying for their own "wages" out of their own pockets.
