Chapter 183 Level Up, Professional Talent

After two days of rest, the entire black soil finally returned to its former tranquility.

In the major surviving settlements, various reconstruction efforts were also started to treat the wounded and repair damaged areas.

Every corner was bustling with activity.

Because of the Black Moon incident, many gathering places were caught off guard, causing a lot of losses.

But fortunately, they managed to survive and began to send people out to find out news about other gathering places.

"After the Black Moon, many gathering places have been breached. This is the easiest time to gather people. Please pay more attention to the surrounding situation."

"It would be best if we could get the meteorites and soul fragments from those small gathering places as well."

"understand!"

After the shouts, a large number of figures went deep into the black soil and began to explore everywhere.

Although the black moon this time is very strange, the output of soul fragments is more than any previous time. This is a great opportunity to quickly improve strength. Naturally, all major forces will not let it go easily and all want to suppress each other.

but.

This competition did not last long and was interrupted by a sudden news.

"What did you say? The Death Forest is under control?"

In Crescent City, a cry of surprise spread among the crowd.

The residents and adventurers who were still resting also received similar news.

The emerging city in the Death Forest actually survived this Black Moon!

Not only that, there were no casualties and the newly reclaimed land was defended.

As soon as this news came out, the whole place was in an uproar.

“They actually managed to hold it?”

"I thought they would be overwhelmed by the black beast."

"That's the Death Forest, where there are the most black beasts!"

"Didn't those people who came back before say that they were doomed to die?"

"It's almost impossible to survive here anyway, let's go over and take a look first."

"I'll come too!"

Before the arrival of the Black Moon, many people were worried that the emerging city would not be able to withstand the attack, so they did not dare to go there easily.

Now that their worries have been dispelled, the residents in various gathering places and adventure teams are finally getting restless, and are beginning to form teams and rush towards the Death Forest to seek new ways to survive.

no way.

It is not easy for ordinary people like them to live on the black soil.

The rumored prosperous Liberty City was too far away for them to go, but the Death Forest was different. They could still barely get through the hundreds of kilometers.

What's more, those adventure teams will go wherever they smell opportunities.

Some teams have even started to engage in escort business, specifically escorting those with weak strength to the Death Forest and collecting certain resources in return.

In just half a day, the major gathering places and the Death Forest became bustling.

A large number of foreign teams began to pour into the Death Forest, and under the leadership of Brent and others, they entered the base they had established.

For a moment, exclamations were heard everywhere.

All outsiders were shocked by what they saw.

Especially the elemental elves flying all over the sky and tens of thousands of acres of land that have been reclaimed and planted, making them feel as if they have come to a dream world.

"This, this, this...it's actually just as the rumors say!"

"No! It's even more exaggerated than the rumors say!"

Looking at the thriving scenes around them, the outsiders felt both excited and regretful, hating themselves for not coming earlier.

If they had come earlier, they would have had enough food to eat and a house of their own.

It also made the entire base gradually become lively, with loud shouting coming from everywhere.

The adventure teams were shocked by the overall appearance of the residents here and the city defense buildings under construction. They saw at a glance the huge potential contained therein.

Especially in the central area.

Not only does it have the highest concentration of magic elements, it is also close to the entrances to several druid nests, so people can go in and search for resources at any time. It is definitely the most suitable prime location for living!
"Excuse me, how can we live here?"

Finally, someone couldn't help but ask what was on their mind.

In an instant, everyone else looked over here and was also very concerned about this issue.

"See this identity plate?"

Zhuang Bi, who was in charge of leading them, straightened the crystal nameplate on his chest with a proud look on his face: "As long as you get this identity nameplate, you can choose a piece of land that belongs to you here. You can use it to build a house or grow crops, and 80% of the output will belong to you."

hiss--

"Own land?"

"Eighty percent of the output belongs to you?"

"Are you sure you didn't lie to us?"

There were exclamations from the crowd.

They know better than anyone what it means to own a piece of land of their own, and they dare not even think about it.

But now, you can get your own land just by getting an identity badge. Who wouldn’t be tempted?

"Then how do we get the nameplate?" someone else asked hurriedly, and all eyes fell on Zhuang Bi.

Zhuang Bi had never been supported by so many people before. He felt his breathing become heavier and his expression became even more proud.

You are a bunch of short-sighted bumpkins. You must be regretting hesitating for so long before coming here. Are you?
It is not so easy to obtain a household registration identity card here now.

After humming a few times in his heart, he explained the methods of obtaining household registration one by one.

Because they expected a lot of people to come, Augla changed the acquisition method, making it more stringent and adding a few more checks.

For example, one must have worked for a certain period of time, made great contributions, joined the city defense team, possessed professional skills, etc.

After hearing this, the outsiders were filled with regret, wishing they would have come here earlier. At the same time, they were envious of the first batch of residents who had already obtained household registration and land.

It's true that one step wrong leads to every step wrong.

But even so, the temptation of private land still made them very motivated, and after understanding the situation, they rushed to get their jobs.

Help cultivate the land and plant things, or join in the construction of urban buildings, or follow the team to patrol the surrounding area and eliminate the remaining black beasts.

"Although it's a little late, it's not too late. We have to accumulate more contributions before others get here."

In a certain adventure team, the middle-aged man who was the leader had an excited look on his face and was very glad that he arrived at the first opportunity.

"Yeah, I just went to check nearby, there are several nest entrances, and when this city is built, it will definitely become a trade center outside the entrance to the underground world!" Another teammate who looked very shrewd whispered.

The entire druid's lair is very large, and can be called an underground kingdom. The resources contained within it are innumerable.

Once those people learn that there is a city near the entrance here, they will definitely flock here and use this place as a transit station to explore the underground kingdom.

Over time, it will inevitably become a gathering place for black soil adventurers.

The most important thing is that the food output here is quite terrifying!
The land they saw alone was thousands of acres in size, much larger than any settlement they had ever seen.

With such grain output, there is no need to worry about not being able to attract people. Rapid growth is only a matter of time, so it is particularly important to seize the opportunity.

"I also agree that accumulating contributions should be prioritized." The only magician in the team said excitedly, "I feel that my magic attainments and mental strength have improved much faster in this place. I must get the right to live here!"

"Okay, we'll stay here for the time being."

Having made up their minds, several members of the team followed the city defense team in a hurry to go outside to carry out their mission.

As for other outsiders, they naturally discovered the huge potential here and began to run around the city to help and cultivate the land.

With their joining, the number of people in the base suddenly skyrocketed to nearly two thousand, making the forest lively and the city's construction speed much faster than before.

……

[Planting successful, experience value +1]

Outside the Moon Goddess Altar.

In front of Rhodes, who was leading the giant war trees to repair the canal, an experience message suddenly popped up.

He paused and looked around at the wheat fields that had already produced ears of wheat, and the several plantations that were motionless.

There is no doubt that the seeds of crops planted outside have sprouted.

As if in response to his guess, as the first message popped up, a large amount of information began to emerge in front of him.

[Wheat planting successful, experience value +1]

[Wheat planting successful, experience value +1]

[Cabbage planting successful, experience value +1]

……

[Level upgrade, lv25→lv26]

In the blink of an eye, his experience value reached the maximum and he was promoted to the next level.

This is not over yet.

Although common crops give little experience, they give large amounts.

The thousands of acres of land that were planted first all sprouted seedlings at the same time. The terrifying number of seedlings instantly filled Rhodes' vision with experience information.

[Wheat planting successful, experience value +1]

……

[Level upgrade, lv26→lv27]

……

[Level upgrade, lv27→lv28]

……

[Level upgrade, lv28→lv29]

……

It wasn't until level 29 that the experience gain gradually slowed down, causing Rhodes to gasp.

"Four levels in a row is so impressive?"

really.

His efforts were not in vain.

Building cities and planting areas outside is really the right choice.

Otherwise, with so little land around the altar, it would be impossible for him to upgrade so quickly.

If he continues at this rate, by the time the crops on the thousands of acres of land sprout, he should be able to reach level 30 or above, which is what Augla and the others call a third-level intermediate profession.

The first and second levels are low level.

Levels three and four are intermediate.

It is said that after a profession is upgraded to the intermediate level, there will be a qualitative leap, and when it is upgraded to the advanced level, exclusive professional talents will be derived.

For example, when Erin was promoted to the fifth-level advanced profession, she had her own soul bow, Hunting, which could greatly increase the shooting range.

He never asked about Augla, it seemed to be an ability similar to form switching, he said the other form was too ugly and he didn't want to use it.

"I don't know what new talents a poor gardener like me can acquire."

I guess it’s another auxiliary ability?
Rhodes couldn't help but complain in his heart.

After all, it was just a mid-level profession, and he didn't expect it to be too abnormal. Just give it a stronger auxiliary ability, or slightly strengthen the original professional magic.

Thinking of this, I called up my personal information and took a look at it.

【Demonized Tree Spirit lv29】

[Occupation: Gardener (Level 2)]

[Experience: 8/570]

[Normal: Light of Life (forbidden spell), Thorn Guard, Life Shield...]

[Occupation: Cultivation, Harvest, Ripening]

In just a short while, the experience value increased by 8 points.

It seems that it will soon reach level 30.

"Lord Rhodes, there are more and more people in the city now. We can't handle it with just our men. Do you want me to call more tribesmen over?"

Augla came over from a distance with a team of elves.

As the number of people increases, there will definitely be more and more problems, such as personnel management issues.

Without the overt threat of force and the security forces available at all times, it would be easy for chaos to arise.

It was fine at first, after all, there was only so much space.

But their plan is to build the entire Druid Forest into a large city, and this must be considered in advance.

Rhode thought for a moment and said, "Forget it. It would be a burden for you if your soul stays in the Dream Forest for too long. Besides, your people all have their own things to do. You can't always rely on them."
