Today's first update, thank you first for Chen Feng Mu Yu, Jim H, Xing Pei Yue Bai Xing for the rewards, and then the new book is on the shelves and I want to refresh the fashionable updates.

－－－

In the last week of the Quiet Season, Lance received his first tax since becoming the county magistrate in three counties under his jurisdiction.

If taxes are compared to wages, this is probably the first salary after being distributed to Guruling. In this way, Lance is still lucky. First of all, after a series of reforms, his Guruling finally achieved a bumper harvest in a season. Guruling's taxes have increased at least three times more than originally. In the past, even if the money is slaughtered to death, he will not be able to make such a result. Now, Lance only demands to pay half of the original amount and food, which has reached this level.

It is naturally not lucky to be like this. After all, it is somewhat worthy of Lance. What really makes him happy is that before receiving the salary, the county next door left two unclaimed achievements, and they were also paid to Lance. Relying on his relationship with his superiors, Lance did not have to pay a portion of the taxes received like others, but were fully put into his pocket.

Of course, the amount of money and food is quite large, but for Guruling and Lance today, it is not as exaggerated as imagined, and it can only be said to be the icing on the cake.

The food, Lance, was stored for the next four months.

Darkness is coming.

When eternal night falls on this land of the abyss, the residents of the abyss naturally cannot live as they usually have sunrise and rest at dusk. Basically, all the work that needs to go out will stop and turn into indoor handicrafts. In these months, even mercenaries rarely take tasks.

Some of the merchants who have no industry in the local area or who have been involved in the fun because of the recent prosperity here have begun to withdraw from Guru Ridge, and Lance did not stop it, or it was meaningless to stop it. These merchants are not engaged in production, but transport goods to trade between cities and cities to earn the difference. If they are tied to Guru Ridge, they will not be of use when their goods are sold out, but will have more mouths to eat idle food.

What Lance really held was the big merchants who could organize caravans. These merchants had already boarded Lance's pirate ship and had no other way out. Lance sent Morson to discuss with them the trade plan for the aftermath of Eternal Darkness. Of course, Guruling provided soldiers escorts on the way, which was a prerequisite for the business road to be opened in the season of Eternal Darkness.

People of all kinds came and left, but the entire Gulu Ridge did not calm down, but became more lively than before.

They must be fully prepared before eternal darkness comes. After all, it is quite boring to let Lance do nothing in a dark place, but it may cause some trouble to this restless county chief.

However, before introducing these, we still have to talk about Lance's demon lord system. After the last time Lord Relton's horse racing document, Lance's lord level was finally successfully upgraded to level D, and even the territory he belonged to was also upgraded to D.

Lancelot-Ray-Igusas

Lord level: Level D. Experience required for upgrade (0/10000) required for D-level territory (3/5), with more than 5,000 legions (0/2)

Territory: Guru Ridge (Class D town), Black Valley County (Class D town), Feronte County (Class D town)

Population (1341257), local finance (2186698 gold), grain (1167835 kg)

The proportion of races under the rule: 35.7% of mixed-sex humans, 15.4% of lower-sex demons, 34.9% of demon servants, 0.1% of higher-sex demons, 5.3% of cavemen, and 8.6% of others.

Public opinion index: civilians (78/100), squire (62/100), mercenaries (75/100), merchants (73/100), army (71/100)

Special buildings: Canal LV3, Blacksmith Shop LV2, Element Pool LV1, Militia Battalion LV1, Market LV4, Tavern LV3, Defense Tower LV1, Death Arena LV3

Tax status: 412388 gold, 636783 kg

The above is the simple attributes of Lance. It naturally surged a lot compared to the original data. After upgrading to this level, Lance also received a reward of a random skill and a selection skill.

Random skills, Lance is accompanied by the advancement of primary insight and intermediate insight. At this point, Lance can attach levels and attributes to people.

As for another selective skill, just like the last time I upgraded, there will be three skills for Lance to choose one by himself.

After thinking about it, Lance chose the last one in [Junior Magic Mastery], [Junior Riding] and [Junior Agility]. Perhaps it was Lord Reelton's words "Be careful" that touched Lance. Although he had a group of loyal guards like Hei Steel, if his strength was too poor, he would inevitably be successful by someone who was interested. Lance chose this one because he actually wanted to have the ability to protect himself.

Elementary Agility: Improve your agility attribute by 15%, and you have a 1% chance of perfectly dodging the opponent's attacks.

Although the probability is a little smaller, the chance of being forced into a desperate situation is not high, and the character is to bet on this tiny 1% probability.

In addition to these, there are also gaspies, which have also changed.

Of course, there will be a free chance to get a free chance to get a shot when you upgrade, but the chance to get a shot given by the system this time is not the original one.

The reason is that the options under the Gallery menu have become two.

[Ordinary Gasket]: Consumes 100 system points.

【Excellent Gallery】: Consumption of 1000 system points.

(The higher the quality of the gauntlet, the higher the probability of the prize being given a higher level)

Lance is really powerless, but if you think about it carefully, the system gave away several lottery draws, and he has never spent any time on the system, so I won’t complain here.

Lance clicked on the opportunity to use [Excellent Gallery], and sure enough, there was an easter egg the size of a dinosaur egg on the retina, but the patterns on the easter egg seemed to be much brighter than the usual ones before. Then, when a familiar clang sounded, the easter eggs burst into gold powder from inside.

System: Congratulations on obtaining the D-level treasure card [Garbage Bag].

Lance's brow jumped hard. He first looked at the two cards he had drawn with ordinary ballasts, one of which was a B-level [Goblin Quick Construction Squad] and a C-level [Natural Secondary Crystal Mine]. Then he took a deep breath and threw the cards in his hand on the table.

"This is a cheating dad."

The treasure card named Trash Bag is really ironic. Lance himself knew that competing with a ring had no meaning, so he took the card in front of him and looked at it carefully.

The illustration of the card seems to be a green cloth bag that looks a bit old. It is filled with bulging, and the mouth of the bag is tied tightly with a hemp rope, so you can't see what's inside.

【Garbage Bag】(D-level treasure card)

Description: In front of you, there is a pocket full of things that have not been opened. This seems to contain infinite possibilities. Whether there are mountains of gold and silver or great weapons, a future cat-shaped robot may pop up inside... If you think so, I can only say that you are thinking too much - this is just a garbage bag.

Effect: You can reach into the garbage bag every day to randomly draw something.

List of possible props:

Brick: The world's number one magical weapon, it can be used as a weapon or as a hidden weapon. Even in situations where there is no need to fight, it can be put down as a pillow. (Evaluation. When using it, there will be a critical hit bonus.)

Kitchen Knife: If you hold it up, you will knock it down with one brick. No matter how good your martial arts are, you will be afraid of kitchen Knife, which is as famous as the brick. (Evaluation. No explanation)

The red bow tie of the elementary school student: the equipment of a certain god of death, it is said that it can change the voice after wearing it. (Evaluation. It can only change the female voice.)

Pink pills for elementary school students: Half chance of changing your appearance and body shape. (Evaluation, the efficacy lasts for 3 days.)

Elementary school students' electric skateboard: It is fast, but cannot be turned. (Evaluation, please bring soft pads when using it.)

Red and white sneakers for elementary school students: It can increase your foot strength. (Evaluation, but it has a heavy foot odor.)

A piece of shit: This is really a piece of shit. (Evaluation, do you want me to say something...)

*Even if all items in the garbage bag are not in use, they will automatically disappear after 1 hour.

1 magic crystal is required to use.

After reading these, Lance sealed the card that needed 1,000 system points to draw without hesitation, and vowed not to hire it.

——This card is just used to disgust people.

After ignoring the cards, Lance finally remembered something really useful in this system, that is, after upgrading the lord level and territory, Lance can choose functional buildings that can be built in the D-level territory.

Adjusted to the interior system, Lance's construction list was quickly refreshed.

This time, new buildings have been added to twelve types.

[Mage Tower]: A building that can cultivate mages, and you can purchase spell scrolls here. (Element pool is required)

[Port]: You can bridge another town with a portal and perform rapid transfer. (Element pool is required, and the town that transmits must also have a portal and connect to it)

[Infantry Battalion]: A building that can train infantry and can conduct combat training here. (Military Battalion is required)

[Caval Battalion]: A building that can train cavalry and can undergo riding training here. (Military Battalion is required)

[Smelting Plant]: Large iron-making steel-making mechanism, providing metal materials. (Neilsmith shop is required)

[Lowing yard]: Large wood product processing mechanism, providing a large amount of wood. (needs a blacksmith shop)

[Chronicles]: The alliance organization of merchants is conducive to market stability and increases the types of goods. (Markets are required)

[Bank]: Official lending credible institutions can attract investment and savings. (The market is required, and the people's heart index is required to exceed 60)

[Night Party]: High-end entertainment club, a paradise for the rich to consume. (Public house is required)

[Mercenary Group] or [Brother of Thieves]: You can hire them to do your business. (If you need a tavern, this building cannot exist at the same time, you can only choose one of two)

[City Wall]: Repair the city wall and increase the basic defense of the town. (Defense tower is required)

[Fort]: The turret with strong firepower has a slow fire rate, but it is powerful. (Requires a defense tower, blacksmith shop)

These 12 functional buildings have different effects, but each has its own uses. Of course, it is impossible to develop such things in full and become a fat man in one bite, so Lance must give priority to those buildings that are most helpful to him or are urgently needed.

After careful study, Lance finally decided that he would choose [Portway], [City Wall] and [Fort] first.
Chapter completed!
