War Paradise

"Dig, hurry up!"

A group of workers in ragged clothes began to dig out the future river with shovels. These dark-skinned workers stood in the blazing sun and wiped their sweat, but there were smiles on their faces.

Their bodies have become unusually strong after long-term high-intensity labor. Although their muscles do not look big, they are very "durable". As the excavation of the canal continues, they who had lost their jobs have also been given the opportunity to work again.

"Hey-hey……"

The middle-aged man waved his shovel, and his sweat was thrown out along with the action.

At this time, he was in a very good mood. After all, as long as you have a job, you can earn more money to support your family.

The laborers of this age are simple and pure. They do not have any awareness of "awakening" and do not fight for their own rights and interests.

For them, there is only one axiom in the world:

——As long as you work, you can exchange money and food, nothing more.

In the distance, the engineering master stood on a high platform built of temporary logs, staring at the excavation work of the canal with his back hands behind his back. His thin body was swaying slightly in the wind, and the expression on his face was very serious:

"This can be done."

The engineering master turned to face the wasteland outside the city wall, took a round lens in his left hand and placed it in front of him, and the scene of the slum outside the city appeared in his sight:

Soldiers from the Flame Wind Army’s entrapment regiment are helping the poor to quickly open up wasteland, and the free food seeds have been transported to the slums.

While gradually opening up the land, the food shipped from the granary is also being distributed on a large scale in the slums. Through simple and rude "everyone has a share", the food problem of the poor outside the city is temporarily solved.

"However, how long can this last."

The engineering master muttered to himself in a low voice, his voice dissipated in the wind.

...

Your "Lord Mode" Ascension has reached level 3!

Seeing the prompt that appeared before him, Lin Chi opened the property bar to check his current status.

With the further transformation of the slums and the restarting of the canal, the own prestige has reached 10,000 points.

And this skill upgrade should also be due to the prestige value Ascension:

Lord Mode (Level 3):

When you are in the throne of the lord, you can check the status of your army and internal affairs, and you can quickly give orders through the messenger.

In addition, within the range of Flamewind City, you can check the status of the army and internal affairs at any time, but you can quickly give instructions only when you are equipped with a herald or when you are near the target's subordinates.

You have acquired the new skill "Time Elapses (Level 1)".

"The name of this skill... is not quite right."

Lin Chi pulled the skill bar to the bottom and found a new skill attached to Lord Mode:

Time passing (level 1):

Now you can double the speed of your own game. This skill can be turned on and off at any time, but you can use it at most once a day.

Please note that when you turn on this skill, your thinking and reaction speed will not increase. In addition, the skipped time cannot be traced back.

"It is said that the prince of a country is better at allocating time than ordinary people, and this argument has been circulating until today."

——So this is the legendary "fast forward".

Realizing that he had already activated a new feature in this game, Lin Chi was going to experiment with the feeling of fast-forwarding in this game.

In old-fashioned strategy games, the result of each battle is basically doomed before the battle. Therefore, there is often a function of fast forwarding, or skipping the battle animation directly.

However, in brain imaging games, similar functions seem to have not appeared before. This "time passing" that appeared in the Nightmare Eye map should be considered a pioneering work.

Since it is an online game, when a player fast-forwards, other players may not choose to fast-forward. But there is actually only one time flow in the game.

In other words, using this skill is equivalent to skipping part of own game time, rather than speeding up the entire game.

In this way, before the war has begun and Flamewind City is still in the construction stage, he can also use this skill to allow the "Young Master" to grow at a faster rate.

"Then let's start..."

Lin slowly walked out of the main hall and came to the open space outside the Flame Wind Palace. What he saw was the wide steps, the guards who were patrolling, and the blue sky.

"Lord Lord." The guards who were patrolling immediately saluted.

"It's okay, don't worry about me."

As Lin Chi said, he looked up at the sky, staring at the cotton-shaped clouds that were slowly floating. With the idea of ​​own, the first-level "time passing" was started.

The picture in front of him trembled.

Then everything started to speed up.

The clouds that were drifting slowly by, suddenly speed much faster. The guard, who was walking at a normal pace, suddenly became the appearance of participating in a race walking competition.

It is said that when entering the Meditation state, the feeling of time will change. Lin Chi seemed to be in this state at this time.

As mentioned in the skill introduction, own thinking and reaction speed have not changed, but because of entering the "fast-forward state", the speed of the action is much faster.

It was just walking under normal time flow, but now it has become a brisk walking. Lin Chi tried to run two steps, and the speed was astonishingly "fast". It was the same as activating the Dark Sword's "touching" skill, and directly Ascension doubled.

It is conceivable that if you start "touching" in this situation, in your opinion, the speed will probably be incredibly fast.

However, using this fast forward in battle has a negative effect. The battle situation in this game is changing rapidly, and it is not easy to win by adjusting the value before the start of the battle.

Since he is still in the "farming stage" of opening up the city, Lin Chi, who has nothing to do, does not turn off the time lapse skills.

Until a messenger walked quickly, Lin Chi finally allowed his own time flow to return to normal, looked at the sinking dark red sunset, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Lord Lord, the messenger from Warscar City sent a letter."

Chi Jia's messenger was kneeling halfway, and handed the paper in Lin Chi's hand.

Lin Chi had seen a map of this continent. The territory named Warscar City was on the east side of Flame Wind City.

In the young master's room, he once found a letter called "A Wish for Alliance", which mentioned Warscar City's desire to form an alliance with Flamewind City. But now, the lord of Warscar City should have changed from an NPC to a player, and maybe he doesn't plan to continue to form an alliance...

While thinking about it, Lin Chi opened the huge envelope and took out the parchment inside, only to see that the text above was very simple:

"Do you want to form an alliance? Let's talk about it."
