Liu Muxue stood beside Edward, observing his drawing and occasionally offering suggestions for changes.
Before long, a brand-new layout map of the territory appeared before them.
Cao Xing glanced at it.
Compared to the original layout map, it was a complete transformation.
It followed the same train of thought as Liu Muxue's.
Naturally, the center of the entire territory would be the Furnace, the Lord's Manor, and the Pale Tree behind them.
Therefore, Liu Muxue's idea was to use those buildings as the center and expand outward from there.
Neat streets and plazas would be left in the middle.
A separate area was also designated for the Lord's Manor.
The second ring would contain various buildings, including residential houses, the Sewing Shop, the Alchemy Workshop, and more.
The third ring would contain larger buildings such as the Mage Tower, King's Altar, and Knight's Hall, which could also serve as residential areas.
The fourth ring would contain the processing plants mentioned earlier, with various training grounds to be added later.
Each ring of buildings would be interspersed with Watchtowers, Lighthouses, and the like.
Beyond that would stretch a large open area, serving as a buffer zone.
The buffer zone was meant to prevent enemies who broke into the territory from damaging its buildings.
Although the chances of that happening were slim, it was better to be prepared.
Beyond that would be a ring of towering walls enclosing the entire territory.
After looking it over, Cao Xing was extremely satisfied.
"Not bad, not bad. This is exactly what I imagine the future territory will look like!"
Of course, this was only a concept drawing.
Turning it into reality would require a great deal of time.
It would also consume an almost unimaginable amount of resources.
Just paving the entire territory with stone
