This sea lord is a bit strong

Chapter 102 Anina's Homecoming, Civil Construction
After several days of boring sailing, when the outline of the Crescent Islands appeared on the sea level in the distance, everyone on board was excited.

Although it was only a dozen days at sea, it seemed as long as several years had passed.

The tense nerves also slowly relaxed with the gentle sea breeze blowing.

When Willus, who kept his hands on the territory, saw so many ships appearing on the sea, his expression was very serious, especially when he saw the huge ship as big as a hill, he was prepared to die in battle preparation.

Hastily asked someone to inform Lord Anina that he brought all the murloc cruisers who stayed behind and some armed citizens to the beach, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.

Small boats were put down on the ship and slowly rowed over.

But when he saw a familiar figure standing at the bow of the ship, his spirit suddenly relaxed, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

He quickly greeted him with the army.

"My lord, you are finally back!"

Ji Chen walked onto the beach, looked at Willus with a somewhat tired face, and settled down in his heart.

It seems that this middle-aged man was really working seriously during his absence.

"Well, I'm back. You have worked hard these days, and the territory has not been invaded by the enemy?"

Hearing this, Willus straightened his back and said seriously: "In the past few days when your lord is away, the territory is operating normally, and there are no major problems.

The monsters that occasionally climbed up from the sea were all killed outside the territory under the protection of the murloc cruisers who stayed behind, leaving no damage to the territory and personnel.
In addition, the resource collection work is also very smooth, and now a lot of resources have been accumulated in the warehouse. "

Speaking, Willus suddenly remembered something, and said in panic: "But just a week ago, part of the resources in the warehouse suddenly disappeared in front of my eyes."

a week ago?

Isn't that when he was in the secret realm?
The resource suddenly disappeared out of thin air.
He suddenly realized that this part of the missing resources should be the consumption of Alice's Song of Temptation upgrade.

Seeing the panic on Willus' face, Ji Chen smiled and waved his hands.

"This has nothing to do with you, I used this part of the resources."

Hearing this, this conscientious middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief and continued to report.

"Kobolds are very obedient to digging in resource points, they seem to have completely lost the will to resist,

And according to your order, we promoted a small number of kobolds among them as "stewards", and promised them that if they can manage other kobolds well and report those who want to rebel and those who are lazy, they can get better food and residence,

And show some politeness to them in terms of words, after such an operation,
These kobold stewards have unexpectedly shown a more brutal side to their own kind, and this implementation is even better than us directly guarding them! "

Speaking of this, Willus's eyes are already full of admiration.

Ji Chen just smiled.

This is the so-called dog management. There are four hundred to five hundred kobolds, and it takes too many people to completely control them.

But by doing so, the manpower and effort needed to monitor them can be greatly reduced.

Get twice the result with half the effort.

Humans have played this routine badly, but the effect is really good.

"...Oh, by the way, Lady Anina has helped us a lot during this time, repelling the attacks of monsters many times."

Hearing this, Ji Chen looked at Anina who was standing alone in the distance.

He could see that Anina was very excited and happy at this moment, but she suppressed herself and didn't let her emotions show, she just blinked her eyes and looked this way.

Seeing Ji Chen looking at her, he turned his head away in a little panic.

Ji Chen couldn't help smiling, and then walked towards her.

"Anina, I heard from Willus that you have guarded the crown of the ocean very diligently during this time. You really deserve to be a deep-sea dragon whale. You really kept your promise!"

Hearing this, the corners of the Dragon Whale girl's lips curled up involuntarily, and everyone could see how happy she was.

But when she realized what she was doing, she immediately suppressed it, and said with a straight face: "This is an agreement between me and you, and I will naturally abide by it."

Looking at this cute look, Ji Chen smiled and said: "The agreement is the agreement, but it is also true that you helped the crown of the ocean. The leaders are very grateful to you."

As soon as these words came out, the Dragon Whale girl, who couldn't stand the praise, couldn't help but grinned, "Really? Why do I feel that they look at me a little strangely?"

Presumably you ate too much and scared them.

"How come? They like and appreciate you."

When the leader saw Ji Chen winking at them, he became excited and immediately cooperated.

"Master Anina, thank you for protecting us!"

"Without you, the territory might be invaded by monsters, thank you for everything!"

Hearing this, the Dragon Whale girl was almost overflowing with happiness, she giggled embarrassedly.

But then, as if she remembered something, her face suddenly darkened.

Ji Chen was a little puzzled and asked.

"We agreed to protect this place while you were out at sea, but now that you have returned, the agreement is fulfilled, and I have to go."

Before Ji Chen could speak, Lingmin immediately became anxious
"Master Anina, why are you leaving? Are you unhappy living here? We all hope that you can stay."

"Although you eat a lot, we don't dislike you at all. If you are not full, I am willing to give you half of my share of food!"

"I'm also willing to pay half, so you can stay."

"I only eat one meal a day, and I'll give you the rest!"

"I'm not going to eat, I'll give it all to you!"

They knew that Anina was born in an extraordinary family, possessing a superhuman strength and appetite.

At first, there was indeed a feeling of being out of tune with them, as if they were aliens.

But after a long time, everyone fell in love with this seemingly arrogant, but actually very kind and warm-hearted girl.

During the monster invasions again and again, the girl always stepped forward with a giant sword and beheaded all the monsters without even taking a step into the territory.

He already regarded her as a part of the territory in his heart.

Now that she heard that she wanted to leave, she immediately became anxious and anxiously tried to persuade her to stay.

"Do you want me to stay?" Anina was also stunned when she heard this, and tears welled up in her eyes when she saw how the leaders were saying goodbye.

Before, I was alone, with no worries.

But now there are so many humans who regard her as a family member. For the first time, she felt so deeply needed by so many people.

Seeing this scene, Ji Chen struck while the iron was hot like an old blacksmith.

"Anina, you have also seen it. Everyone hates you, so you can stay here and treat this place as your home."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" The extremely thin-skinned Dragon Whale girl couldn't bear it anymore when she heard this, tears streaming down her face.

a long time.

Anina sniffled her nose, blushed slightly, and said to Ji Chen with erratic eyes: "Since you have said so, then I will reluctantly stay."

"But you must let me eat every meal, or I... I will run away!"

Ji Chen was overjoyed and said with a smile, "Of course, as long as I can eat enough, I will definitely not starve you!"

"A word is settled!"

"Ding~Deep Sea Dragon Whale (human form): Anina (hero) is loyal to you."

"Anina (hero) unit technology tree panel is open."

"Ding~ Successfully recovered three hero units, you have comprehended the red skill: persuasion."

persuade?

Recovering the three heroes can also comprehend skills?
Ji Chen was slightly surprised, and with a thought, he opened the personal panel to check.

Find the skill column.

In addition to professional skills, there is an additional column of life skills.

[Life skills]: Persuasion (red skill, able to use language to persuade the target, and greatly increase the probability of persuading surrender, submission, and submission [only effective for intelligent creatures])

It looks very good.

But there were not many surprises, after all, he had persuaded so many pirates to submit to him before, although it was persuasion on a physical level.

But it's not bad to get a red skill.

In addition to the role of persuading surrender, it may also be used to bargain with merchants.

Anina successfully became the hero of the territory, which can be regarded as an end to one of his worries.

Turning off the personal panel, looking at Anina who was talking with Alice, Ji Chen remembered something.

He seemed to have something to give her.

Flipping the backpack, he took out a talisman from inside.

【Amulet of Strength】

[Level]: 4-star treasure (single unit)

[Effect]: Increase strength by 200%, but speed up physical consumption by 100%
[cooling time]: no

This power talisman was originally intended to win Anina over.

Now that Anina has declared her allegiance under the heat of talk, this talisman can only be given away as a gift.

"Anina, come here, and this amulet will be given to you."

The Dragon Whale girl looked at the talisman in surprise, and asked in disbelief.

"Is this really for me?"

Ji Chen smiled slightly, "Of course, put it on quickly to see if it fits."

As soon as Anina put on the talisman, she felt that the power her body could control was twice as strong.

Pick up the greatsword as if there was nothing in your hand.

Well, before it was like holding a twig, now it's like a stick rolled out of parchment.

In this case, it must be able to better protect the lord, right?she thinks.

"I like this gift very much!" Anina looked excited, and when she was excited, she suddenly tiptoed and kissed Ji Chen's right cheek.

Alice was stunned for a moment, and Ji Chen was also stunned.

"Anina you."

The Dragon Whale girl looked at their strange looks, and said indifferently: "What's so strange, this is how the Deep Sea Dragon Whale group expressed their gratitude. Is there any problem?"

At this point, Ji Chen and Alice were speechless.

I couldn't help but wonder in my heart, do deep sea dragon whales really have such a habit?

This thing is over.

Ji Chen led everyone back to the territory.

He began to check various affairs of the territory.

The first is the problem of resources. During the time he went to sea, various resource points produced a lot of resources.

Clay, crude iron, and stone stuffed the warehouses.

Especially wood, which is everywhere, the number reaches as many as [-] units.

Here, I would like to thank the kobolds again for their contributions.

Because of the willingness to keep cutting down, the trees on the territory have been completely cleared except for the coffee trees.

The forest around the territory has also been cut down, leaving a lot of room for construction.

It laid a solid foundation for Ji Chen's next civil engineering work.

Take out the two architectural blueprints in the backpack.

[Architectural Drawings: Large Water Village]

【Architectural Drawings: Timber Processing Factory】

Both of these two are obtained from the secret realm. The former requires a large amount of wood and a suitable location, and it cannot be built for the time being.

The latter needs wood and stone materials, and the resources are sufficient for construction, and it is better to build this kind of industrial chain building as soon as possible.

It would be best to have it built and produce a sample of the product before Raymond came again, for him to take back with him to estimate the value on his return trip.

The construction site of the wood processing factory is set up on the open space in the northeast of the Lord's Mansion. This area will become a functional area in the future, accommodating various functional buildings.

Then he opened the territory construction panel and called out the characteristic buildings of the territory.

【Territory Special Building】

【Jungle Plantation】

[level]: special
[Construction consumption]: 1000 units of wood, 1000 units of stone
【Occupation area】: 50×50 (m)

[Effect]: Can plant jungle crops and increase their output
Drape directly on the specialty coffee tree to contain it.

"Ding~ Selected premium coffee trees for jungle plantation crops can increase yield by 50%."

50% of the output, that is, from 2 units to 3 units of specialty coffee beans a week, the bonus is amazing.

In addition to increasing production, jungle plantations can also grow and multiply jungle crops.

Twenty-five coffee trees, soon to be fifty, one hundred.

At that time, more coffee beans will be produced to help him earn gold coins continuously!

Connecting the construction of these two buildings, Ji Chen did not stop, and ordered more than ten residential houses again to increase housing.

Now the indigenous tribes have all migrated over, changed their appearance, and truly became part of the territory.

Willus has also reported the situation of the indigenous people planting seawater rice.

In the lowlands in the southeast of the main island, dozens of acres of seawater rice have been planted, and it is still expanding.

It is estimated that in the next week, enough seawater rice fields can be planted to continuously support thousands of people.

After dealing with these more urgent matters.

Only then did Ji Chen come to the west side of the territory, and took out the cores of the three arms recruitment battalion.

One from Tidal Sea Spirit and two from Deep Sea Ranger.

No time wasted, just a thought.

The three cores each flew to a place.

After digging deep into the soil, three recruitment battalions broke through the ground immediately.

The tidal sea spirit recruitment camp looks like a signal tower, while the deep sea ranger recruitment camp is like a giant doghouse, with an extremely dark inside.

But Ji Chen didn't care about these things, feeling a little excited.

These two units will change the way he fights!
