Chapter 213 – Doesn’t anyone remember this is a farming novel?
“This… was it automatically given because I gathered the three most basic types of buildings?”
In the dark and empty main hall, the cloaked young girl sat on a massive throne made of piled bones, looking at the complete layout of the territory that had appeared around her. She couldn’t help but murmur.
The municipal building, the Great Graveyard, as the most critical building in a territory, was something Kazumi had longed for and tried countless achievements without success. To think it would be summoned in such a wondrous way.
It should be known that in any game, such a central municipal building would definitely be the first to appear, or be built-in. Even in “Undead Lord,” a game with extremely high freedom of degree, the municipal building was included in the novice tutorial for construction.
But it’s good that it’s transferred to reality. Getting an advanced resource building blueprint at the start. If her uncle wasn’t a big shot in a villain organization, Kazumi probably wouldn’t have gathered these materials by now.
And the final setting was extremely anti-human. After the young girl built the three basic buildings for resources, troops, and sacrifices, the most important central building just popped out on its own?!
[Which game’s developer wouldn’t be afraid of going bankrupt with such a setting!!!]
Complaining inwardly at the dog planner with the reverse setting program, Kazumi gradually calmed her mood and began to carefully examine the territory panel in front of her, which looked different from how it appeared outside.
[Territory Name: Black Coffin (Modifiable)]
[Size: XXX Sq. (Expanding)]
[Buildings: Great Graveyard (Special), Corpse Crow Nest (D), Dark Altar (Unique), Graveyard Hill (A)]
[Creatures: Corpse Crow Swarm, Ghoul x2, Ghoul Maggot Mother x1, Ghoul Maggot Offspring (Several)]
[Technology: None]
[Death Aura Concentration: Extremely Low]
…
[Traits: 1. Death Expansion: Can constantly expand internal space by consuming death aura.]
[2. Soul Attraction: Receives souls of the dead into the territory to become residents (the completeness of souls is related to the municipal building level).]
[3. Imperial Guard: Guards that crawl out of the graveyard, guarding their final fortress with invincibility.]
The brand-new panel in front of her gave Kazumi a feeling of her eyes lighting up. Not only was the art style more in line with the young girl’s preferences, but more importantly, compared to the blurry information seen on the system panel outside, the information that this territory panel could provide was countless times more detailed.
From the current expansion of the territory’s area to the specific attributes of each individual Corpse Crow, as long as one was willing to spend time, it could all be queried on this panel.
And compared to these panels that made data enthusiasts like Kazumi extremely comfortable, what the young girl cared about even more were the two new abilities that represented the traits of the Great Graveyard.
Kazumi found the [Imperial Guard] relatively easy to understand. Looking at the two factions of fully armed skeleton soldiers standing in the hall, the rich death aura contained within and their incredibly powerful aura. As long as the young girl had a thought, these statue-like guards would immediately turn into the most powerful warriors to crush any enemies who dared to intrude into the graveyard.
These well-equipped skeleton soldiers, in terms of all-around data, had already reached the level of mid-tier undead. They were not comparable to the common trash skeleton soldiers outside, and were at least at the level of Black Knights.
Coupled with the trait of being immortal as long as there was a supply of death aura. If they could be led outside, without alerting high-ranking heroes, Kazumi estimated that slaughtering a city would not be a difficult task.
Of course, this was just the young girl’s unrealistic belief. The word “guard” destined the true function of this group of skeleton soldiers. Their range of action was limited to the surroundings of the entire Great Graveyard, and even the entire territory could not be covered, let alone be brought out to fight.
And [Soul Attraction] was an ability that made Kazumi ponder.
Territory residents were the most crucial component of a territory. Even though undead creatures, due to their characteristics, did not need to engage in production activities, the guidance of death aura, the gathering of soul fragments, and even the offering ability of the altar all required the work of basic soul residents.
But the problem now was that reality was not a game. The game’s settings only used phrases like “receiving souls” and “connecting planes” to provide a slightly acceptable background for the territory to spawn residents out of thin air.
In reality, it was not that simple. “Receives souls of the dead into the territory to become residents of the territory” was how it was described in the skill introduction. Did this mean that her current territory had the ability to seize the laws of death in the real world and “intercept” souls that were originally destined for reincarnation after death?
If it was indeed as Kazumi guessed, that it intervened in the laws of the real world rather than the system’s method of refreshing NPCs, would it further arouse the fear of the real world towards her?
Was the “Underworld” that several heroes and Mai Shinomiyai always held in their mouths the representative of this world’s will of death? And how many opportunities could she seek in between?
A series of questions popped up in the young girl’s mind like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, but Kazumi quickly suppressed them for the time being. After all, now was not the time to think about these things. Quickly gathering information and understanding the most basic capabilities and usage methods were what she needed to do at this stage.
“Hoo— Let’s look over here first. Rapidly improving capabilities is the most important thing. Other planning and deduction can be done at night.”
With a long sigh, the young girl retreated from that moment of brainstorming. The emotionless undead mind was indeed somewhat terrifying. The efficient and cold operating method clearly listed all sorts of interests and risks in her mind, waiting for Kazumi’s deduction and judgment.
But Kazumi also pushed these matters aside slightly. Her skinny body leaned back on the massive bone throne, a nameless smile appearing on her cold face, her slender and fair fingers slowly tracing through the air.
Like switching screens on a smartphone in her previous life, the territory panel, which was filled with dense data, shrank and disappeared. What reappeared in the young girl’s field of vision…
Was a terrifyingly huge tree-like technology diagram!
