Chapter 8 The real world is different from games
The next day, Garin was awakened by Varokal. After eating roasted spider legs for breakfast, Garin returned to his tent and prepared to check the situation at the base.
Sitting cross-legged and closing his eyes, a bird's-eye view of the base slowly emerged in his mind. Garin discovered that the person who was building the barracks was not Cliff, but another farmer. At this time, the population of the base showed nine people, but apart from the one who was building the barracks, there were only three people in the picture who were cutting wood, and the construction of the lumberyard had stopped.
What's going on? Where are the remaining five farmers? After switching the view, I found that these farmers were sleeping in the yard of the town hall, including a female farmer.
Garin suddenly realized that this was a real world, and his base was not a base in the game. Farmers could mine and cut wood 24 hours a day. Although they were trained in the base, they were intelligent and needed rest.
Garin confirmed his conjecture from the awakened Cliff: the units trained at the base are all real humans. In addition to being instilled with the belief of loyalty to Commander Garin, they also have the skills that each unit should have. Farmers can be trained to mine, cut wood, build and repair, and combat soldiers can be trained to have various abilities of soldiers. They also need to eat to maintain normal physical consumption, and they also need to rest when they are tired.
According to Cliff, they normally work twelve hours a day, and can work longer hours if the commander requires, but their work efficiency will decrease if they are overworked.
Similarly, Garin also understood that the situation of combat units was not constant and could not be measured only by the health value. If the army marched quickly in the future, the combat effectiveness would decrease when they were tired, which was far worse than when they were recuperating.
Thinking about the fact that he had trained the farmers at midnight yesterday, he asked them to collect the crops overnight. This was already the landlord exploiting the farmhands.
I was too excited last night and needed to rush, so I didn't communicate with Cliff seriously and was careless.
Realizing that he could not use the logic of the game to operate the base, Garin had a hunch 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 yard, Garin 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 farming game, this is a farming game, this is a farming game, the important thing is to hypnotize yourself three times. Just change the gameplay from the fast-paced real-time strategy to the gameplay of the Total War series, Garin thought to himself to comfort himself.
Garin slept too late last night and seemed to be in a bad mood, so he didn't plan to go out. He only arranged for Omar and Varokal to take turns to catch velociraptors, collect velociraptor leather, kill grassland giant spiders, collect spider silk sacs, and capture highland wild horses. Velociraptor skin can be used to make leather armor, and spider silk sacs can be used as tailoring materials or engineering materials. These raw materials are hard currency goods in the human world.
The Highland Wild Horse is a breed unique to 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.
Arathi Highlands has plenty of rain and fertile grass, so a good highland warhorse can be sold for a hundred gold coins. Wild wild horses caught in the wild are strong, wild, patient, and strong in load-bearing capacity. They can be used as stallions in horse farms or tamed as warhorses.
These days, Garin 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, Garin can watch it in his mind, and as Garin moves, it automatically detects the surrounding environment and records it, just like opening a map.
The map drawing task no longer needs to be done, but Garin cannot leave the area now. He still needs to wait for the construction of the base to be on track and at least have the strength to protect himself before he can leave with peace of mind.
Three days later, in addition to continuing to train the farmers, Garin arranged for Cliff to take four farmers to the east to mine. When Garin saw that the wood in the resource column was finally enough to build a barracks, he deployed the barracks next to the town hall and also deployed a blacksmith shop.
At this time, there were already three farms in the base.
farm:
An average of six units of food are produced each day.
Farmers needed
The current farm crop defaults to Magic Wheat
Farm crops can be changed through farmers
This is also a small surprise. I don’t have to worry about the source of food in the future. Garin currently has no idea of changing crops. After all, at this stage, the main food in this world is still wheat.
Zooming in, the farm is a rectangular building with a dome. The interior is relatively simple and is divided into two parts. The front part is the living area with a fireplace, a simple kitchen next to it, a wooden table in the middle, and a resting area with six bunk beds further in. The back part is a warehouse with a small stone mill.
There is a farmland outside, with a simple wooden fence as a fence, and the magic wheat should be planted inside. The entire farm covers an area of about one acre square.
Farmers consume one unit of food every 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 speeding up 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, or raise livestock and poultry, and even to grow medicinal herbs, provided that new seeds are provided.
After listening to Cliff's introduction in the remote connection, a voice seemed to ring in Garlin's mind: Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the achievement "I have a farm halfway up the mountain". I wonder if such an awesome farm can grow nether minerals? Garlin complained in his heart.
At this time, there were twenty-eight farmers in the base. In order to speed up the construction of the barracks, Garin arranged five farmers to build the barracks together. In order not to block the population, the farm was also continuing to be built.
Finally, before dusk, the barracks were completed. It was a square building over 100 meters long and wide, made of huge trees and boulders, with white stone walls dotted with red flags, and four towering watchtowers at the four corners.
Garin concentrated his mental energy on the barracks and connected to the light ball inside the barracks.
