Online Game: Island War

Although it is in the warm temperate zone, it is still the middle of winter, and it is still very cold to sail at sea, especially when Lei Jiu and the others set off, the sun has not yet risen.

The construction of the new ship still needs a lot of time, even if the workers in the dock have not stopped busy.

The main reason is that no one has built a boat powered by a big fish, and the carpenters and shipwrights on the island have little experience in building big boats, so the process of building a boat is actually very tortuous.

The process of demolition, construction, and demolition has been repeated many times. Even up to now, there are still many technical problems that have not been overcome.

What's more, this first version of the design, even if the ship is built, it is not clear whether it can pass the sea trial.

Even if it passes the sea trial, there are bound to be many areas for improvement.

However, no matter how many problems there are, the advantage in speed alone is worth Lei Jiu's vigorous development.

Otherwise, as it is now, the process of paddling on a paddle boat to an island 120 kilometers away is really tormenting.

Even if the soldiers take turns to hold the oars, it will take at least one day and one night to reach the target island, and there is no guarantee that they will arrive at this time tomorrow morning.

Therefore, every time Lei Jiu dangled slowly on the sea, he would place more expectations on the work of the dock.

In the past few months, Lei Jiu has not moved to an island outside the third-tier island chain. The reason is that he firmly believes that the system will definitely impose restrictions on such a big event as the Novice Village.

So when the news came that the entire sea route was unimpeded, Lei Jiu felt a little lamented in his heart, it's over, now the reward for being the first to advance to a level 4 island is gone.

However, until now there has been no system prompt, indicating that the actual situation is different from what he thought.

However, until now, he has not figured out what the limitations of the system are, which is also one of the main purposes of his operation this time.

Although the goal of this voyage is to go to the 4th-level island, in fact, he has long been prepared to fail.

After sailing at sea for nearly 10 hours, the fleet has approached the periphery of the third island chain.

After lunch, Lei Jiu, who had lost his appetite for a while, was taking a nap in the cabin.

"Ding!"

In a daze, Lei Jiu seemed to hear the voice of the system prompt.

Drum, pedal, pedal!

There were running sounds on the deck, and it seemed that someone was shouting into the distance.

Boom boom boom!

Lei Jiu was finally disturbed by the knock on the door, opened the door and found Luo Zheng standing at the door of the warehouse, "What's wrong?"

"My lord! Our ship seems to have encountered some obstacles. No matter how the soldiers rowed, we couldn't continue to sail. I looked around, but I didn't find where the resistance came from. All other ships passed without hindrance. up.

Just now I had someone call them back, even dragging the ship with a rope was of no avail! "

Um?

What's happening here? "How about the return flight?"

"There is no problem returning home!"

Give back and never give up; other boats can pass without hindrance, but the boat he is on can't go forward...

Thinking of the sound he had just heard in a daze, Lei Jiu pulled out the system notification record and scanned it, sure enough!

"Ding! Before the three-layer island chain is merged into one,

Island owner players are not allowed to leave the sea area where the third-tier island chain is located! "

Ah!

Player banned?

This system is really, you can't say it on the face with this kind of restriction? The player had to come and try it himself. It was a waste of time to dangle in the sea for so long.

Fortunately, two days later was the day to re-merge the island. Lei Jiu didn't plan to run any longer, and directly turned to a nearby island that hadn't been fused for two days. When the island was fused, he followed the island directly.

Although he was slandering in his heart, Lei Jiu felt relieved after confirming the problem.

If it is done step by step, his position as the first person on the 4th-level island cannot be snatched by others. After all, he did not make any mistakes in the integration process of the entire three-tier island chain, at least in terms of expanding the area of ​​the island.

Since he won the first place when he was promoted to level 2 and level 3, the first place in level 4 is still his.

Two days later, it was completely dark, and Lei Jiu frowned as he looked at the models of the two islands shining brightly in front of him.

The big one is Huanghuang Island, and the small one is the island under his feet that is about to be merged.

The reason why he frowned was because the two places, the fishing village and the trading port, the shipyard and the huge transport warehouse next to it where the giant pike were stored, were already in the way.

When he merged the islands before, he tried to avoid these two positions.

However, considering that the shape of the entire eastern part of the island is now severely deformed, he must make adjustments to these two places.

Try placing an island tile cut by a third close to fishing villages and trade ports.

"Ding! The coastal building community is found here, do you want to extend it as a whole?"

Huh?

Still have this function?

"One of the system buildings in the building complex can be relocated for free. For the rest of the non-system buildings, players need to pay 273 gold coins for the overall relocation according to the scale and difficulty of the relocation."

Lei Jiu was speechless. In a fishing village with a total population of less than a hundred people, you actually need 273 gold coins for a move. Do you want to be so black?

Even taking into account the housing reconstruction, the overall relocation, plus the relocation of fishing boats, etc., it will not cost 273 gold coins, right? After all, the fishermen in the fishing village are all idle now, and the relocation is just a matter of effort.

The only trouble is that the current weather and temperature make it difficult to build a house.

Lei Jiu already had a bad premonition that the extended relocation of this seaside city and military and civilian facilities would become a big spender on Huanghuang Island.

Now the relocation of more than 100 people is still simple. When the fishing village develops into a town, county, or city, the workload of relocation will be heavy.

The scale of the fishing village, Lei Jiu can make up his mind to move by himself, if it is a city, then it is not a matter of him talking up and down.

Otherwise, we should develop a few less coastal cities in the future?

Alas~!

So far, apart from the way of the Ninth Chamber of Commerce, Lei Jiu has not found a stable external source of gold coins. Uh, based on the current total import and export volume of Huanghuang Island, gold coins are still outflowing.

Even if there is gold coin input in the future, whether it can fill the bottomless pit of gold coins set by these systems is another matter.

The research center, the Great Wall of Haiphong, and the overall extension and relocation of the city are all gold-swallowing bottomless pits!

Needless to say about the research center, let's talk about the Great Wall of Coastal Defense. Until now, Lei Jiu didn't even collect enough basic building materials. Each meter of the Great Wall of Coastal Defense requires 10 gold coins, 40 cubic meters of granite, 7 cubic meters of soil, and 3 cubic meters of sand. A total of 50,000 cubic meters of building materials are required for one kilometer. Seven million square meters of materials and more than one million gold coins.

Since the temperature dropped to the point where it was not suitable for road construction a while ago, Lei Jiu transferred the idle labor on the island to mine, excavate and transport materials.

In fact, this is not the key point. The most important thing is that the Great Wall of Haiphong will always grow bigger with the expansion of Huanghuang Island, so it is called a bottomless pit.

Moreover, the Great Wall of Coastal Defense obtained by Lei Jiu is an enhanced version. If he doesn't invest more, wouldn't his enhanced version be for nothing?

In addition to the last item, with the expansion of the island, the continuous extension of the coastline, and the extension and relocation of those coastal facilities and settlements, how many gold coins have to be handed over to the system!

Although he holds tens of millions of gold coins in his hand, Lei Jiu has already started to worry about future gold coins! Elemental crystals, magic power crystals, and attribute crystals, these energy storage materials cannot be sold, ah~! At first he thought he was rich, but when he thought of these bottomless pits...

Forget it, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain, let these troubles go to hell!

At least he can still afford the 273 gold coins in front of him.

In order to make the 273 gold coins worthwhile, Lei Jiu placed the newly merged island in the southeast direction of Huanghuang Island, where the fishing village and trading port used to be.

Originally, the southeast corner of the map of Huanghuang Island, which was somewhat depressed, immediately protruded. In this way, there is no need to relocate these two places in a short time.

Of course, no matter how much Lei Jiu complained about the system's desperate need for money, the extended relocation service provided by the system for the entire coastal complex still made it much more convenient for players.

It is equivalent to spending money to buy away the troubles of relocation.

It's just... how to make money is also troublesome...
