Armipotent

Chapter 350 - Level 3 Smart Territory

The farm project had started, but it was not easy as it sounded. They were still plowing and fertilizing the land, it took some time before they could plan the crops. Taking advice from the experienced farmer, Cao Jingyi decided to plant sweet potatoes and corn.

If they wanted to build the rice field, it would take a longer process. They needed a lot of water and built an irrigation system. A larger land was also needed for that.

"What about the newly recruited guards? Did you allow them to get their talents and class too?" This was a concern that needed to be put into consideration for the trial later.

If these people received their talent and class, he needed to think twice. He could not kick them out after receiving such a benefit. Training them might be the best option. However, if they did not receive any of them, he could kick them out without any concerns. These people would be a threat to the base in the future, after all.

Cao Jingyi went silent. She did not know since she was not the one who was responsible for the recruitment. However, that was not an excuse since she was the temporary leader. She should have known such critical information.

Cao Jingyi then noticed the disappointment in Tang Shaoyang\'s expression while shaking his head. She felt uncomfortable, something was not right. She somehow was disappointed in herself. She lowered her head.

"Origin! You have the data, right?" Tang Shaoyang did not want to be reliant on smart AI because he thought a human was more flexible than a robot. What mattered to Origin was the result, it would do anything to get the best result. It did not care about the way to get that best result even if it had to sacrifice many people.

[Yes, My Lord. You should be at ease, I don\'t let anyone enter the basement since your departure. So none of these people had a class or a talent.]

"No wonder these people are very weak. They are bullying ordinary people with their weapons…" he paused midway as a frown formed on his forehead, "Then where their weapons came from? Did they use their own Game Coin (GC) to buy the gears?"

He looked toward Cao Jingyi. Weapons and armors were not cheap as the clothes. They are multiple times more expensive than any other items sold in the General Store. Those people could not afford the weapons and armor since it was the same gears used by Tarriors, not the cheap ones.

Cao Jingyi raised her head, they exchanged glances for a moment. Tang Shaoyang could see the guilt in her eyes. He did not need the answer as he already knew it by just looking at her expression.

"Hah…" a disappointed sigh escaped from his mouth, "You already knew that Jin Fan and his followers are up to no good, but you still fund them to strengthen their people. It\'s kinda funny that they used my money to raise their people to kill me."

Zhang Mengyao nudged his waist from the side while shaking her head. She was telling him not to be harsh with Cao Jingyi. He could also see tears starting to gather in her eyes. Cao Jingyi was on the verge of tearing up.

"I am stating the fact. You can\'t make an excuse, this is a fatal mistake. It is fortunate that we are stronger than them, what if we are on the weaker side? I will lose my head and you, women will be their toys," Tang Shaoyang was shaking his head as his back slumped to the chair.

"What about the four new buildings outside?" There was a similar building as the main base, but the four buildings were built shorter than the main three buildings that already existed from the start.

[We bought four fifteen-floors buildings and placed them there to accommodate the survivors that come to our base. However, Jin Fan used those buildings for his benefit, it\'s still empty.]

Origin was the one who answered the question. Cao Jingyi was sitting across him with her head lowered. She did not dare to look at him.

They continued to talk for another half an hour before Tang Shaoyang dismissed Cap Jingyi, "Alright, you should continue the farm project. I want to hear a positive result from that project. You can go now."

Cao Jingyi nodded her head and stood up while holding her tears. She then left the meeting room, leaving Zhang Mengyao and Tang Shaoyang behind.

He did not put all the blame on her. He blamed himself that he failed to see that Cao Jingyi was not capable of leading the base.

Tang Shaoyang tapped the table with his index finger. He was organizing his thoughts for a moment, "Origin, grant Wei Xi and Zhang Mengyao access to the Communication System."

Even though the Communication System was limited, without a doubt, this was a big advantage for leveling the base to level 3. They could not use the phone since it disappeared magically or the system most likely took that technology from them. This might be the main reason why the system took communication tools from them.

"This is?" Zhang Mengyao was surprised to see the communication system.

"It\'s one of the benefits of upgrading the smart base," Tang Shaoyang told her that Cao Jingyi had upgraded the base with the GC they gained from the Survival Game.

"So, can you tell me more about the new feature of our base, Origin?" Tang Shaoyang wanted to know more about his base so he could work with the base. Taking a break was not an option for now. He realized how weak the order in his base was. He had to work on it.

[Yes, My Lord. Aside from the Communication System, the General Store has been upgraded to level 2 as well. It now sells us more things, from the daily necessities and better equipment. We bought the seed of the sweet potatoes and corn from the General Shop. It also sells fertilizer which is the reason why we can go forward with the Farm Project.]

[Aside from the General Store, the control rooms now not only allow you to modify the existing building in the territory, but you can also buy a building too, up to the fifteen-floor building, watchtower, road, and wall.]

[The last one, I believe you will like the last one a lot. Please come down to the Advancement Floor, My Lord. It\'s better for you to see it by yourself.]

Advancement Floor was the basement where people got their talents and class. Origin\'s words intrigued Tang Shaoyang. He did not force the AI to tell him as he followed its will to go down. Zhang Mengyao also followed him, since the two were talking openly, she could hear the conversation.

The two left the meeting room and went down to the third-floor basement. The first two floors were still empty, he had not gotten any clues yet what he should about these two floors.

Taking the exclusive elevator, they quickly reached the Advancement Floor. It was still empty aside from the two rooms with blue and green doors. The blue door was the room for you to choose a class while the green one was to get talent.

[First, please enter the Talent Room first, My Lord!] - There was an excitement in Origin\'s voice which was a rare case. It seemed the AI was excited to show the last benefit of upgrading the base.

Tang Shaoyang and Zhang Mengyao followed its guidance and entered the talent room. It was the same white room. However, as soon as he entered the room, he got a red exclaimed mark ahead of him. The same for Zhang Mengyao.

Under Origin\'s guidance, both touched the exclaimed mark.

Tang Shaoyang\'s eyes gleamed in delight upon seeing the percentage. The upgrade also brought another huge benefit. The chance of getting better talent was increased.

On top of all of that, he found a new tier talent, Epic. SSS-Tier was not the highest talent, meaning his talent was not the best one, there was a much better talent.

Looking at this, his hand was itchy to roll a new talent, hoping to get Epic Talent. But he managed to hold back, the chance of getting Epic Talent was nil. It would take great luck to obtain the talent. Moreover, he did not want his current talent to get overruled with the new talent. He was satisfied with the Divine Body.

\'Nah, I will roll if I can have the second Talent just like the second class,\' he shook his head and glanced toward Zhang Mengyao, "Do you want to try to roll a new talent?"

Zhang Mengyao shook her head, "The chance to get a better talent is so low. I don\'t want to risk it, and my current talent is so strong too. It\'s not worth it to try it."
