Chapter Eighteen: Upgrade and Enemy Raid
Qin Lan immediately had Tian Feng allocate a piece of land in the city for Zi Xu to build his temple, and all the resources needed for the construction were paid by the city.
With sufficient manpower and resources, plus Qin Lan's shameless modification of the construction speed to ten times normal, he received a report while trying to view Zi Xuan Shangren's attributes in the Recruitment Hall: The first-level Temple of Offerings has been successfully constructed.
Purple Void Upper Person, Level 56, Leadership 56, Strength 112, Intelligence 268, Domestic Affairs 30, Bravery 12, Strategy 168, Charm 50, Luck 68, Loyalty 12, Position None, Official Position None, Title None, Skills Unknown, Status In Exile.
Unmatched powerful strategy, unfortunately, he is not a general belonging to Qin Lan, but a wild general. Moreover, this kind of immortal-level existence, even if you want to recruit him, it won't be an easy task. After some consideration, Qin Lan decided to put this matter aside for now, although she didn't know why the mysterious Zi Xu Shangren would take the initiative to come to her, at least it proved that he was developing well now.
Returning to the government office, Qin Lan began to examine this new type of architecture - the altar.
Altar is not a building in the game of Hot Blood Three Kingdoms. In Hot Blood Three Kingdoms, each city has only 32 available slots to build structures other than government offices and city walls, with 14 other types of buildings, each having its own unique function.
Among them, residential buildings provide housing for the population in the city, attracting more people to settle down, and are the foundation of a city. Generally, more than ten groups of residential buildings need to be built, and they need to be continuously upgraded. The higher the level of residential buildings, the more people can live in them.
Academy, the academy can study various technologies, which are of great help to production, construction and combat. The higher the level of the academy, the more technologies that can be studied. An academy can only study one technology at a time, but academies in different cities can study different technologies simultaneously, however, only one academy can be built in a city.
Tavern, The tavern is where you recruit generals and take on some special tasks. Upgrading the tavern gives you a chance to attract higher-level generals.
The Hall of Heroes: The Hall of Heroes is where the generals reside, here you can check the status of the generals, use tactics, appoint, reward and disband generals. There must be empty rooms in the Hall of Heroes to recruit new generals.
Market: The market is a place where goods are traded, and transactions are made with merchants to buy and sell resources. Upgrading the market level allows for larger-scale transactions. The higher the market level of a city, the more prosperous the economy, and the more taxes can be collected.
Warehouse: The warehouse stores food, wood, stone and iron. The warehouse can increase the upper limit of resource capacity. When the city is plundered, these resources are saved in the warehouse and will not be taken away. The proportion of resources stored in the warehouse can be adjusted.
Drill Ground: The Drill Ground is a place where troops are assembled. Here, orders for deployment and drills are executed, the status of the troops is inspected, intelligence is gathered, and tactics for deployment and city defense are adjusted. The higher the level of the Drill Ground, the more troops can be assembled and deployed at the same time.
Barracks: In the barracks, civilians can be trained into troops. Upgrading the barracks allows for higher-level troop types to be trained and increases the queue of troops waiting to be trained.
Honglusi Temple: The Honglusi Temple is an institution that receives foreign envoys, and when contacting different forces or needing to join a force alliance, it requires the support of the Honglusi Temple.
Blacksmith: The blacksmith forges various weapons and is a required building for establishing an army.
Workshop: The workshop produces various siege engines for attacking and defending cities.
Stable: A stable is a building where horses are kept and cared for, it's an essential structure for training cavalry.
Relay Station: Relay stations can greatly increase the movement speed of troops between cities.
Beacon Tower: A beacon tower built on high ground, using smoke and fire signals to transmit intelligence over long distances, providing early warning of approaching enemy forces. Upgrading the beacon tower can provide more detailed intelligence and also accelerate the movement speed of one's own troops within the beacon tower's sphere of influence.
In general, in a normally functioning city, all these basic buildings need to be built one by one. Among them, about eight to ten residential houses are needed, and eight to ten barracks are also needed. Other buildings must also be built. Therefore, the thirty-two positions are actually very tense, and most players need to make choices between residential houses and barracks when building.
Qin Lan carefully counted around and was surprised to find that his city had 44 empty spaces, he didn't know when it started. No wonder he felt that the city seemed much larger. Having more empty spaces is a good thing, after consulting with the novice guide standing in the corner of the wall, Qin Lan finally understood that after the Hot Blooded Three Kingdoms mutation, every time the government level was upgraded, there would be three more building spaces inside and outside the city.
Altar (Level 1): A sacred place where people worship heaven and earth, a holy land that attracts the hearts of the people. Increases the population limit of the city by 10%, increases morale by 2 every day, accelerates city construction efficiency, and allows ordinary cities to have the opportunity to upgrade to famous cities.
Wow!!! Qin Lan exclaimed in surprise, this is just level 1 and it can already increase the population upper limit by 10%, morale 2. If upgraded to level 10, wouldn't that be an increase of 100% and 20 points? Moreover, the last item is the most surprising, you know, in Hot Blood Three Kingdoms, players' cities are always just ordinary cities, all buildings can only be upgraded to level 10 at most. What players need to do is develop, then go occupy famous cities. Famous cities aren't just good names, they include four types: the lowest-level county city, governing a county's land. Next is the prefectural city, with a larger jurisdiction. Then there's the provincial city, managing a province's capital. Finally, there's the imperial city, managing the national capital, also Qin Lan's ultimate goal.
In county towns, all buildings can be upgraded to level 12, or with little advantage, but the buildings in prefecture cities can be upgraded to level 15. In provincial cities, they can even reach an exaggerated level 18. Finally, in the capital city, buildings can reach the top level of 20.
Every time the building is upgraded, its functions will be greatly improved. As for the first city that new players enter the game, it is generally the main city of all players. Since there is hope to upgrade, Qin Lan was naturally delighted. So, he happily used the light pen on the large screen in the government office, selected the government office, and upgraded!!!
Along with a slight tremble, the government office began to upgrade. At the same time, the novice guide standing in the corner also suddenly stepped forward.
"Congratulations, you have successfully upgraded your official residence to level 5. From now on, the novice protection period has ended, and you and your city will officially face the war-torn continent. I suppose you are fully prepared. So, show off your strength in this chaotic world. All forces will be aware of your news, please handle your diplomatic policy carefully, as it determines your future conquest path. The novice guide mission is now complete, thank you for your support, and please continue to work hard."
"????" Qin Lan was baffled, what did it mean that all forces would know his news? Just as he wanted to ask again, the novice guide beauty suddenly transformed into a stream of light and disappeared.
What's going on? You're running away with the newbie quest just ending?! Qin Lan muttered in dissatisfaction, and was about to continue developing the city when a sudden urgent alarm bell rang outside.
Enemy attack!!!!!!
