After reaching Level 3 territory, the building categories were initially perfected.
Industry, Agriculture, Living and Entertainment, Military.
There was also one final special category that had not yet been opened.
But that would only be available when the territory reached Level 5, and would only truly become effective at Level 7.
Chen Ping pulled up the list and, after assigning all new buildings for construction, prioritized the Population Management Hall.
This was an important building facility that could attract population to the territory and had to be completed first.
After solving this part of the problem, he finally looked at Milan.
It had to be said that the tall Milan, even without speaking, simply standing there made one feel pleasant.
“Milan, can you train an army?”
“Yes, in fact, I can also handle territory affairs.”
Milan's clear and cold voice came, answering Chen Ping's question honestly.
This answer somewhat surprised Chen Ping.
Upon seeing Milan's profession as a Guardian, his first reaction was that she was a combat-oriented profession.
He hadn't expected Milan to be skilled in both civil and military arts; truly worthy of an S-rank Heroic Soul.
“You don't need to worry about territory affairs for now; there isn't much to do, and I can manage it.”
“You go and reclassify the territory's Militia first, and form the embryonic army of the territory's future.”
Milan received the order and immediately left the Lord's Hall.
Chen Ping, meanwhile, once again opened the knowledge fusion function of the Lord's Hall.
After advancing to Level 3, two more knowledge slots appeared, and he needed to invest more.
After some thought, Chen Ping chose the knowledge of Magic and Evolution.
After all, this world was one where the power of the Supreme Dimension existed, and humanity's survival depended on the use of wondrous powers.
Among them, the Mage profession was the pinnacle of human professions.
A powerful Mage could even deter an entire region.
Before reaching high-tier, at the same level, a Mage's output capability far exceeded that of a Warrior profession.
Moreover, magic could also be applied to daily life, achieving the effects of high-tech from his previous life.
Compared to Science, which required gradual progress, magic was often much more unreasonable.
As for Evolution, this was a branch of knowledge focused on the evolution of all things.
Chen Ping didn't know how many people chose this one, but he would definitely not let it go.
The more knowledge of Evolution he mastered, the faster the people and things in the territory would become stronger.
This was an investment that required persistence, with returns that weren't immediately obvious.
As Chen Ping completed his selection, the Lord's Hall once again glowed with an ethereal light, and the entire territory underwent another subtle change.
Milan, who was directing the Militia to gather, looked up in the direction of the Lord's Hall.
While others were bewildered, she had already sensed the changes occurring in the territory.
She closed her eyes slightly and sensed.
“Mystery, Science, Magic, Evolution…”
“The Lord truly possesses a lot of knowledge…”
“Since that's the case, I must also demonstrate my abilities.”
Milan opened her eyes again, and her aura immediately transformed.
Like an iceberg, the Militiamen standing in front of her couldn't help but tremble.
While Chen Ping’s territory was bustling with large-scale construction, the continuous hills far on the edge finally stabilized.
In a mountain hollow, the ground was suddenly dug open, revealing numerous burrows.
Following closely, Lizardmen crawled out from underground one after another.
They flicked their tongues, holding knives and spears, standing in formation.
Finally, a Lizardmen leader, noticeably twice as strong as the other Lizardmen, emerged.
Its bright yellow eyes, with vertical pupils, sent shivers down one’s spine.
“Waaagh!!!”
The Lizardmen leader let out a low growl, and all the Lizardmen immediately scattered, beginning to explore the surrounding environment.
The remaining female Lizardmen lined up in front of him.
The Lizardmen leader was not polite; he directly reached out, picked up two, and burrowed back into his own hole.
In another part of the Chaotic Sea.
In Wang Ke’s territory, the busy Farmers once again heard their Lord’s furious shouts.
The usually dignified and solemn butler stood with his head bowed before the Lord, enduring the Lord’s spittle.
“I’m actually the twelfth to advance to a Level 3 territory!”
“I gave you so many resources, and this is how you handle it?!”
The more Wang Ke spoke, the angrier he became, kicking the silent butler in front of him to the ground.
The surrounding Farmers dared not breathe, only standing timidly in place.
“Get out of here, all of you, get to work!”
Wang Ke pulled out a whip and fiercely lashed at several Farmers not far away.
His mood at this moment was extremely foul.
As enjoyable as it was when he advanced to a Level 2 territory, that’s how enraged he was now.
Everything he did was clearly according to the best procedures learned at the Holy Academy.
And he had a professional territory butler in charge of supervision.
Yet, he was once again kicked out of the top ten?
Wang Ke immediately returned to the Lord's Hall and opened the cross-territory trading system.
The supplies his family gave him had not been fully consumed, and he still had potential to use.
Since relying solely on his territory’s own development could no longer catch up with the leading group, he would use resource trading to accelerate his progress.
“You lowly commoners, I will make you realize why big families are big families!”
The list opened, and Chen Ping directly chose to purchase with gold coins.
The materials currently on the list were not many, and he swept them all clean.
