Chapter 0004 Other Players' Villages

A hunter stands on a stone on the hillside, pointing to a place about 5 li north of Xiacun, where there is a small village

Chutian opened his own panel. The level 10 panel seemed quite impressive.

The point allocation system in "Lord" is significantly different from the online games that Chu Tian has encountered in the past. Previous online games allowed for free point allocation

With his eyes narrowed, Chu Tian thought that the village that appeared out of nowhere was most likely a new village established by other players

Alas, there is no harm without comparison

Chutian is leveling up while simultaneously increasing the food and material reserves for the village

The gap between ordinary players and special heroes is indeed too great

Name: Chu Tian

Lords can betray the governors and even unite with other NPC lords to attack their own provinces... In a certain sense, this is quite provocative

A total of 10 portions of wild boar meat, 15 portions of wolf meat, 3 portions of deer meat, 12 portions of rabbit meat, and several furs.

After one year, free access will be allowed between various civilization zones

In reality, it is impossible to achieve so much in just half a day

Beasts can drop materials such as meat, leather, and beast cores. Although it is a game, the beast-type monsters do not drop equipment, gold, or skill books, which is a peculiar setting. Only humanoid monsters have the possibility of dropping equipment, gold, and skill books.

Equipment: Iron Sword (Bronze Weapon, Attack Power +1), Cloth Robe (No Attributes)

Treasures that can enhance attributes come with astronomical prices, and are often hard to come by. After all, everyone aspires to become a versatile hero, surpassing Zhou Yu in command, Lü Bu in martial prowess, Zhuge Liang in intelligence, and Xun Yu in political acumen.

A dozen or so hunters of the ranger type followed Chu Tian and Hua Mulan to go hunting. Together, they are capable of shooting down beasts of level 10 or below

Village chief, there is a village over there! Strange, it used to be an empty lot.

Special Forces: None

Congratulations to the player for reaching level 10

In the game, it is different; if these beasts are not refreshed, players will not be able to level up. Therefore, a single hunting expedition can yield considerable rewards

Chu was sitting on the ground, panting heavily. The wild boar was even more difficult to deal with than the wolf

Upon seeing the villages of other players, Chutian could not help but think of future matters

[Commander]: 19 [Martial Power]: 17 [Intelligence]: 21 [Politics]: 25

Do not underestimate the materials dropped by beasts. The pelts and beast cores dropped by certain beasts are quite valuable and can be exchanged for money

When it comes to trade, Chu Tian thinks of the nearby large NPC city. Xia Village is close to Langya City, which is under the jurisdiction of the Xuzhou Inspector, as well as Donghai County and Xiapi Kingdom. Naturally, the closest is Langya City located upstream of the Yi River. Xia Village can fully engage in trade with Langya City through the river, thereby enhancing the prosperity of Xia Village. Materials obtained from hunting can also be sold in Langya City in exchange for copper coins, which can then be used to purchase the necessary items for the village.

Characteristics: None

[Noble Title]: First-Class Duke (Twenty-Rank Military Nobility System)

The lord of each state is a vassal equivalent to the governor of that state

Chutian looked at his own attributes and compared them with those of Hua Mulan, feeling a deep sorrow that was inescapable

The level of beasts near the summer village is generally low, ranging from level 1 to level 20

Although the lord profession has comprehensive attributes, it also has significant drawbacks, namely the lack of particularly outstanding attributes

In "The Lord", players can only choose their growth direction. Upon leveling up, they may receive 1, 2, or even 3 or 4 attribute points, or they may not gain any attributes at all. The specific outcome will depend on the direction chosen by the player and their luck

The boundary protection of each civilization zone lasts only one year

[Official Position]: None

The alliances and rivalries among the feudal lords, combined with the players' lords as a variable, render the entire trajectory of the Eastern Han region completely unpredictable

Players, heroes, and soldiers all possess a hidden attribute known as stamina. Once stamina is depleted, they will enter a weakened state, resulting in a significant reduction in combat power

Players who enjoy adventure or wish to rely on their own strength for self-preservation will choose to become lords. Some players who are timid or do not wish to become lords will opt to reside in the large cities of NPCs, or even seek refuge with NPC factions, such as aligning with the most popular figures like Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan, or with the wealthy and powerful like Liu Biao, Yuan Shao, and Liu Zhang

There is also Liu Bei, and it is possible that some players can invite Zhuge Liang to come out of retirement in advance, leaving Liu Bei without a strategist

However, Hua Mulan, who came along to hunt, could easily slay low-level beasts near Xia Village with her Han sword, taking down a level 7 wild boar with a single strike

Sitting on the ground of Chu Tian, exhausted of strength

Among the growth directions of lord, commander, fierce general, military strategist, civil official, assassin, and blacksmith, Chutian has chosen the growth direction of lord

The governor of Xuzhou was Tao Qian. Among the warlords of the Three Kingdoms, Tao Qian had little presence; however, in Xuzhou, he commanded the largest army and possessed numerous cities, making him, in fact, a powerful warlord

Chutian first shot it with a hunting bow, then drew the iron sword tied at his waist to engage in a struggle with the wild boar, and after much effort, he finally managed to kill it

Due to system limitations, the various NPC factions have not yet developed the ambition to compete for dominance in the Central Plains; otherwise, the player lords would not need to develop their territories. In the early stages, who could withstand the attacks of the warlords from the Three Kingdoms?

Status: Weak (Combat Power -50%)

Players also have a way to defy fate, which is to obtain additional attributes through treasures

Lord, comprehensive attributes. Commander, high leadership and low martial skills. Fierce general, high martial skills, low leadership, and low intelligence. ... Military strategist, high intelligence and low martial skills ...

A group of people hunted in the nearby mountains and forests for half a day, tallying their results

In addition to the players from the Eastern Han District, there are NPC factions and players from other civilizations who may enter the Eastern Han District at any time

Level: 10 Experience: 2 / 500

It is precisely because the system randomly allocates points in the direction chosen by the player that special heroes can surpass the vast majority of players

Hua Mulan is already level 30, and the experience from this hunt is simply insufficient for leveling up

[Cultivation Method]: None

He shook his head, stating that he is currently just the village chief of a Level 1 village. There is no need to think about such distant matters

All players are trapped in the world of "The Lord". After the initial panic, they can only accept this reality.

The reason why players cannot freely allocate points is to prevent them from stacking a single attribute. For example, if a player were to increase their strength to 100 points, they would be able to challenge Lü Bu in a one-on-one duel. Players can become quite reckless with their point allocation, similar to how some players in certain games allocate all their points to defense or evasion.

Chutian returned to Xiacun with the hunting team

Chutian merely glanced at his pitiful panel, thinking that after becoming a great lord in the future, he would find a way to obtain treasures that could enhance his attributes

Could Cao Cao really win the Battle of Guandu? If all the players' lords stood on Yuan Shao's side, then Prime Minister Cao would have to flee in disgrace.

We will return to the village, and when I have time, I want to visit that village to see if we can establish trade relations

Player, you have killed a level 7 wild boar, earning 20 experience points, 1 piece of wild boar meat, and 1 piece of wild boar skin
