534 Chapter 384: The Dwarf Sacred-Blood, The Hope for the Upgrade of Twilight City [1/3]

October 15th, noon.

Richard watched as the yellow sand before him gradually dissipated while he stood before the Lord’s mansion. It revealed a magnificent building.

He was in a good mood.

Finally… Richard had leveled up!

[Ding~ The system has upgraded Twilight City level 3 medium-sized city. Fifty slots have expanded the Lord’s mansion. Five hundred and one thousand ninety-eight have expanded the territories.]

[Twilight City]

[Level: 3]

[City: Medium]

[Ten million units each of gold, wood, stone, and iron]

[One hundred thousand units each of crystals, gems, mercury, and sulfur]

[Population: 50,000]

[Technology: Five special-level]

[Hero Units: 20]

From the evening of the 13th to the afternoon of the 15th. It has upgraded Twilight City from a level 3 small city to a level 3 medium city.]

The area of Twilight City had expanded several times if one looked down from the sky.

The original buildings were slightly crowded. But now, large empty s.p.a.ces appeared outside these buildings.

What was worth mentioning was that when the system has upgraded Twilight, the city walls also expanded along with the city.

At this moment, they still firmly guarded the territory.

[City Wall]

[Level: Elite]

[Can level up with the territory level]

[Material Required to Level Up: 10 million units of stone]

[Characteristic: 25 meters tall, 12 meters wide, st.u.r.diness 50]

[Skill: Endurance. Increases the strength and defense of the defending army by 30%.]

[Description: A city wall with good defense.]

The city wall was firmly bound to the territory.

There wouldn’t be an awkward situation where the territory area exceeded the city wall.

The only thing that gave Richard a headache was the requirements for upgrading a level 3 city to a level 1 city were too harsh.

Resources weren’t an issue with the current abilities of Twilight City.

Twenty champions were not difficult, but the last two were different.

Five advanced technologies, 50,000 people…

He knew how difficult it was to upgrade technology.

The consumption of resources was secondary. The time needed for research was the primary point.

It was still fine if it was ordinary to intermediate. But Twilight City would take a month or even longer to upgrade from advanced to special.

Moreover, there was a chance of failure.

It would take Twilight City at least four to five months to complete the five advanced technologies.

He arranged to conduct full-time research for Sam, the one-armed blacksmith.

He required Sam to cut the queue to a more urgent task if something unexpected happened midway. It would delay the time.

The population of 50,000 also made him speechless.

Where did so many people come from in the desert?

It had been half a year since he came to the “s.h.i.+ning Era”, but the Twilight City had only picked up two thousand people from the desert…

He simply did not have the strength to complain.

Those lords who lived in rich lands had at least 30,000 to 50,000 people.

The barren resources in the desert made the conditions that were not a problem for other lords extremely harsh for Twilight City.

Richard took a deep breath and calmed himself down before he thought of a solution.

“The population problem could not rely on the desert’s production.

“Who would cross the desert all day for no reason?

“The best solution is to import it from the outside world…

“This world has no shortage of poor people the war has displaced.

“The Violet Merchantile a.s.sociation Chamber of Commerce should show its effectiveness.

“However, there must be a limit. We couldn’t bring in several residents at once. Raising the people’s hearts will enormously promote the development of the territory.

“The people’s hearts will scatter if there are too many of them.

“I had solved the population problem. I can only let Sam work hard on technology.

“I have to continue to find talents in this field in the future.

“According to these conditions, if we want to upgrade the city in the future, we might still be stuck by technology.”

Richard’s thoughts cleared up. He soon found the crux of the problem.

However, this wasn’t something he could solve in a day or two. He could only do it gradually.

The development of Twilight City would encounter various difficulties.

He was mentally prepared for this.

He looked around after he recollected his thoughts.

It was time for him to upgrade the other buildings.

He still had plenty of resources on hand. He had left 20 million for Vale previously. So he still had 80 million on hand.

He immediately set up without hesitation the blacksmith shop, food workshop, brewing workshop, tailor shop, and barracks… He upgraded all five buildings.

Three hours later, five special buildings appeared before him.

Apart from the barracks, all had become four-story buildings.

He looked valiant.

Only the barracks remained the same. The only difference was that the railings outside had become a three-meter-high wall.

Barracks could train ordinary residents into soldiers and partic.i.p.ate in wars.

They could even obtain treasures and train special troops.

However, the building practical for other lords was sparingly valuable in Twilight City.

Richard did not need ordinary residents to change levels. First, a few residents were more valuable than soldiers.

Second, the undead troops in his hands were more suitable for desert battles.

As a result, the only function of this building was to meet the upgrade requirements of the territory…

Richard was quite satisfied with his inspection.

No matter what, Twilight City would go increasingly mightier.

However, Richard immediately looked at the residential area when he saw more than 70 million ordinary resources left on his attribute panel. He needed a large city with a population of 50,000 if he wanted to level up.

The number of residential buildings right now wasn’t enough.

Richard upgraded all 40 residential buildings to special level after he pondered.

He only lost a few million resources after such a crazy upgrade.
