The next day, Galen was woken up by Varokar. After eating roasted spider legs for breakfast, Galen returned to his tent and prepared to check the situation at the base.
I sat cross-legged and closed my eyes; an aerial view of the base slowly appeared in my mind. Galen found that the person building the barracks was not Cliff, but another farmer. At this moment, the base's population shows nine people, but except for the one building the barracks, there are only three people in the picture who are chopping wood, and the construction of the lumber mill building has also stopped. What's going on? Where did the remaining five farmers go? After switching the view, I found that these farmers were sleeping in the courtyard of the Town Hall, including a female farmer.
Galen suddenly realized that this was a real world, and his base was not a game base. Farmers couldn't mine and chop wood 24 hours a day. Although they were trained in the base, they were intelligent and needed rest. Galen confirmed his guess from the awakened Cliff: the units trained in the base are all real humans. In addition to being instilled with the belief of loyalty to Commander Galen, they also possess the skills that each unit should have. Farmers can be trained to mine, chop wood, build and repair, and combat arms can be trained to have all kinds of soldier skills. They also need to eat to maintain normal physical exertion and need to rest when they are tired. According to Cliff, they usually work twelve hours a day, and can work more hours if the commander requires it, but their work efficiency will decrease if they work too much. Similarly, Galen also understood that the combat effectiveness of combat units was not constant and could not be measured solely by health data. If the army in the future conducts a forced march, their combat effectiveness will decrease due to fatigue and will be far inferior to when they are well-rested.
Thinking about the fact that he had trained the farmers at midnight yesterday, he asked them to collect crops overnight. This was already the landlord exploiting the serfs. I was too excited last night and needed to hurry, so I didn't communicate seriously with Cliff and was careless. Realizing that he couldn't use game logic to operate the base, Galen had a premonition that the subsequent buildings would be very different from those in the game, and this base was built in reality. Looking at Cliff and his men sleeping in the corner of the courtyard, Galen thought of something. He immediately arranged for the farmer who had just received training in the hall to choose an open area on the south side of the hall and start building a farm. This base is a from a farming game.
It would be fantastic if the gameplay could change from a fast-paced real-time strategy game to that of the Total War series, Galen thought to comfort himself. Having slept too late the night before, Galen looked a little tired, so he had no plans to go out. He only arranged for Omar and Varokar to take turns going out to capture velociraptors, collect their hides, kill giant prairie spiders, collect their silk sacs, and capture wild highland horses. Velociraptor hide can be used to make leather armor, and spider silk sacs can be used as tailoring or engineering materials. These raw materials are hard currency in the human world. The wild highland horse is a unique breed of the Arathi Highlands. It is known as one of the three major horse breeds along with the Alterac mountain horse and the Elwynn forest horse, and each has its own advantages. The Arathi Highlands are rich in rainfall and fertile pastures, and a good highland warhorse can be sold for a hundred gold coins.
The wild highland horses captured in the wild are strong, wild, have good endurance, and can carry a lot of load. They can be used as stallions in horse farms or tamed and used as warhorses. In these days, Galen had wanted to draw a detailed map of the Stonefist Hall area and collect some highland specialties for trade. Now that the base has been built and the map has been automatically scanned, Galen can see it in his mind, and as Galen moves, it automatically detects the surrounding environment and records it, as if opening a map.
There is no longer a need to perform the task of drawing the map, but Galen cannot leave the area now. He still needs to wait for the base construction to be on track and at least have the strength to protect himself before he can leave with peace of mind. Three more days passed. In addition to continuing to train farmers, Galen arranged for Cliff to lead four farmers to mine in the eastern mountains. When Galen saw that there was finally enough wood in the resource column to build a barracks, he deployed the barracks next to the Town Hall and also deployed a blacksmith. At this time, there were already three farms in the base. Farm: An average of six units of food are produced each day. Farmers are needed The current agricultural cultivation is defaulted to Magic Wheat. Agricultural crops can be modified by farmers. This is also a small surprise. I don't have to worry about the food source in the future. Galen has no idea of changing crops for the time being. After all, at this stage, the main food in this world is still wheat. Looking closer, the farm is a rectangular building with a dome. The interior is relatively simple and divided into two parts. The front half is the living room with a fireplace, next to it is a simple kitchen, in the middle is a wooden table for eating, and further inside is the rest area with six wooden bunks. The rear half is a warehouse, which is equipped with a small stone mill.
Outside is a cultivated land, enclosed by a simple wooden fence, and the magic wheat needs to be planted in it. The entire farm covers an area of approximately one square acre. Farmers consume one unit of food each day. The three farms and the Town Hall produce a large surplus of food, so there is no need to worry about running out of food to train new populations. According to Cliff, a constant spell was cast on the land of each farm, increasing its fertility and accelerating the growth of grains, so that wheat could be harvested every ten days.
Cliff said that in addition to growing wheat, the farm can also be used to grow other grains, vegetables, raise livestock and poultry, and even grow medicinal herbs. The prerequisite is to provide new seeds. After listening to Cliff's introduction in the remote connection, a voice seemed to echo in Galen's mind: Ding! Congratulations on getting the achievement "I Have a Field Halfway Up the Mountain." With such an awesome farm, I wonder if you can grow Nether Ore? Galen complained in his heart. At this time, there were twenty-eight farmers in the base. To speed up the construction of the barracks, Galen arranged for five farmers to build the barracks together. In order not to block the population, the farm continued to be built as well. Finally, before nightfall, the barracks were completed. It is a square building more than 100 meters long and wide. It is made of huge trees and stones. The entire building consists of white stone walls decorated with red flags. There are four towering watchtowers at the four corners. Galen focused his mental energy on the barracks and connected to the light ball inside the barracks. Barracks: Used to train combat units and upgrade combat weapons. Trainable:
