Name: Wolf Hunter Camp

Durability: 500
Prosperity: +500
Curio: None
Output: Tier-One Wolf Hunter Warrior (Warriors who have mastered excellent hunting techniques gain a damage bonus against units of the Beastmen Faction. Each unit consumes 5 population, 500 gold coins, and 500 food.)
Based on Fang Yuan's understanding.
Jack-of-all-trades units were still very useful in the early stages.
They could serve as ranged damage dealers or step onto the frontline as warriors.
However, the specifics depended on the Wolf Hunter's skills.
Fang Yuan opened the unit panel to inspect it.
Name: Wolf Hunter
Level: Tier One
Quality: Purple Rare
Combat Power: 600
Attack: 50
Health: 700
Stamina: 300
Loyalty: 100 (All units started with max loyalty.)
Skills: Beast Taming, Poison Arrows, Venomous Trap, Tracking.
"Hmm!"
"It actually has four skills!"
After Fang Yuan checked the Wolf Hunter's panel,
the skills genuinely took him by surprise.
It had one more skill than the Flame Mage.
Moreover, every one of them looked powerful.
As the name suggested, Beast Taming could tame a beast as a companion.
At present, it could tame Tier-One beasts.
Fang Yuan immediately thought of the Gray Wolves from earlier.
"Gray Wolves are Tier-One creatures."
"Although their combat power isn't particularly impressive,"
"with enough of them, they can completely take on scouting duties."
"Mage units have high damage, but they're far too fragile."
"If they encounter a high-damage unit, they can easily be killed instantly."
"The Wolf Hunter's skills can make up for this weakness."
"The Gray Wolves can guard the perimeter, while Venomous Traps defend nearby."
"Poison Arrows deal damage, and Tracking finds targets."
Fang Yuan thought to himself.
"Looking at it now, the Wolf Hunters will be a huge help to me."
"Especially after forming them into a squad with the Flame Mages."
After finishing his inspection of the two barracks,
Fang Yuan did not rush to produce soldiers.
He had to hurry and upgrade his main city now.
After all, the novice period lasted only seven days.
Once it ended, he would lose the novice benefits of upgrading and building without cooldowns.
His top priority was to concentrate his strength and upgrade the main city as quickly as possible.
Fang Yuan opened the main city's panel again.
Name: Wilderness Territory
Level: Two
Faction: Human
Power: Gondor Dynasty
Identity: Northern Frontier Lord
Durability: 5,000
Prosperity: 1,400/5,000
Population: 100/1,000
Building Slots: 17/20
Castle Buildings: Hero Altar, Wolf Hunter Camp, Flame Mage Camp
Power Value: 100
Resource Territories: 0
War Territories: 0
Miracle Territories: 0
Upgrade Requirements: 10,000 units of gold, 10,000 units of stone, 10,000 units of wood, 10,000 units of food, 10,000 units of mineral resources, and 5,000 prosperity.
After the upgrade, its durability had increased fivefold.
Visually, the main city's walls had become taller and sturdier.
The higher the durability, the better the city's defenses.
That made it harder for enemies to breach the main city.
Its prosperity and population had increased as well.
The population had risen from 100 to 1,000.
That was an especially huge increase.
A full tenfold.
Prosperity had increased fivefold too, reaching 5,000.
This meant that if he wanted to upgrade the main city to Level Three,
he had to raise its prosperity to 5,000.
Fang Yuan pondered.
"There are three buildings in the city now."
"Upgrading the Hero Altar by one level gives a fixed increase of 100."
"Upgrading the Flame Mage Barracks and Wolf Hunter Camp gives an increase of 500 each."
"In other words, upgrading all three buildings to Level Two only increases prosperity by 1,100."
"That leaves a full 2,500 prosperity still needed."
"More than half!"
"If I used White Buildings for upgrades, with 100 prosperity per level, I'd need thirteen buildings!"
"And only seventeen building slots remain."
"If I filled them all with low-level White Buildings, I wouldn't be able to develop any further."
"Using White Buildings can only solve the immediate problem."
"What can truly solve it is continuing to search for high-quality buildings."
"However, high-quality buildings are quite rare."
"Many can't even be bought on the market."
"If this problem isn't solved, I'm afraid that during the seven-day novice period, I'll be unable to upgrade beyond a Level Three main city!"
"Level Three is the standard for a Novice Lord."
"If I can't advance in a short time,"
"in a dangerous place like the Northern Frontier, even with Lilith, I can't be one hundred percent certain that I can protect my territory."
"Unless I reach Level Ten!"
"Only by continuously producing Tier-Three Purple Soldiers and combining them with Lilith's powerful strength will I have a guarantee of safety."
"But with the current situation!"
"If I can't reach my target, I'm afraid I'll have to choose City Migration."
He let out a faint sigh, a trace of worry showing in his eyes.
There were two ways to migrate.
One was to move to an alliance settlement, which required joining an alliance first.
That would inevitably restrict his freedom.
The other was random City Migration.
If he happened to be sent to a high-tier monster territory,
he would die on the spot.
Unless absolutely necessary, Fang Yuan would never choose that path.
Just as Fang Yuan was caught in indecision,
suddenly,
a notification chime rang out.
"Ding! Lilith killed a Gnoll Sentry and obtained the token Stone Spring Village's Plea."
When Fang Yuan heard the notification,
his worried expression turned joyful almost instantly.
He exclaimed inwardly,
"Damn!"
"Just when all hope seemed lost, another possibility appeared!"
"It actually dropped a token!!!"
Tokens were a type of quest certificate in the Ten Thousand Realms Battlefield.
Using one would open a quest.
The ways to obtain tokens were completely random.
According to the experts on Blue Star,
these tokens were likely remnants left behind by civilizations defeated on the Ten Thousand Realms Battlefield.
After merging with the power of the laws of the Ten Thousand Realms Battlefield, they had transformed into certificates that could activate quests.
Any lord who obtained a token would receive a reward after completing the contents recorded on it.
As for what reward they would receive,
that depended entirely on each lord's luck.
It was said that those with good luck could be directly rewarded with a dragon.
Those with bad luck would still receive at least a red-grade item.
Thus, tokens were regarded as treasures among lords.
Fang Yuan had never imagined
that Lilith could obtain a token by killing a Gnoll scout.
He quickly walked out of the main city.
At that moment, Lilith was already walking toward him.
"My lord."
"The Gnoll Tribe hiding in the forest must have noticed that we defeated the Gray Wolf Lair."
"They sent scouts here."
"Why don't we strike first and destroy this Gnoll Tribe?"
"Then we can eliminate the threat once and for all!"
"Oh, right."
"I also found this on the Gnoll scout."
"It looks like something from before the Great Disaster."
"I don't know whether it will be useful to you!"
Fang Yuan quickly took the Wolf Tooth Pendant Lilith handed him.
The instant it reached his hand,
a notification chime sounded in his ear.
"Ding! Open the token? After opening it, the quest Stone Spring Village's Plea will be activated automatically!"
