Necron: The Legend Of Rezar DeathWind

Chapter 69: Construction And Skills

[Your settlement has achieved a milestone! You have gathered one thousand units of each available resources. You have been awarded 100% settlement progression exp and 300 normal exp}

[Your settlement is now level 1]

It didn't take them too long to achieve that milestone, in fact it took them just six hours on the first day, but Rezar didn't let them stop. The moles needed to rest, but the ants were undead, they were tireless, and they would keep on going for as long as Rezar wanted them too. But he didn't want to draw too much attention to himself, so by the end of the day, he had the ants come back to defend the settlement and help the moles make tunnels that would serve as a shelter till Rezar was ready to start construction.

Everyone settled in to a routine over the next few days, it rained once, and the tides came in, but it never went past the beach, which Rezar was thankful for, and with the rain falling for an entire day straight, they were able to get a significant amount of freshwater stored, while it wasn't that much of an importance, it still helped them. in the three days, Gynaika has been avoiding Rezar, though he didn't know why as he half expected her to be on her knees thanking him and professing her undying love to him, but she has been... solemn.

But never the less Rezar had avoided doing anything within these three days because he wanted to accumulated enough resources to make sure he took care of all the construction requirements at once. They didn't have a storage unit of any sort, so everything was kept within the tunnels the moles had mined. But it was time to start putting the buildings in place.

Each of these buildings could be upgraded, but that mostly depended on the residents, however seeing as all those buildings would be coming out of his own pocket, upgrading them would still be up to him as the people living in it would have to pay rent. But that wasn't something he had to worry about for a very long time, at the moment they just need a place to stay.

[Begin construction on 10 units of basic log cabin? It would cost 800 units of wood, and 20 units of ore]

[Commencing construction! Time to completion: 3 hours]

QUEST COMPLETE:

[Gather 500 units of each resources within 1 week/ Reward: 300% exp progression]

[congratulations! Your settlement has reached level 4, speed of construction has increased a little, durability of buildings has increased a little, defense of settlement has increased a little]

Rezar wasn't so sure about all this 'a little increase' there was no obvious change, especially since the none of the buildings have been completed yet. But none the less he still had to carry on with the construction.

[Begin construction on one unit of leader's log cabin? It would cost 200 units of stone and 10 units of ore, and 5 units of magic]

[commencing construction! Time to completion: 1 hour]

[Begin construction on wooden stake wall? Please specify range of wall to calculate amount of resources required]

Once again Rezar had the holographic map that showed the entire scope of his territory. Frankly speaking he wanted to cover the entirety of his territory with the wooden stake wall, but it would cost a lot of wood, and when time came to place a better defensive measure, the stake wall had to be manually removed.

However, if he's able to cover his entire territory with it, then the walls itself would upgrade with the territory every time it upgraded itself. If not, he would have to pull it down and raise it up again, which means he would have to bite the bullet and empty out his reserves of wood, it might not even be enough, so the ants have to still keep on bringing more.

Once construction on the wall is completed, then it should not be all that hard to raise the scout tower and then shift his focus to the recruitment hall. But the recruitment hall mostly needed stone for it to be built, so there should be enough of that, but right now, he would just focus on the wall.

[To focus construction on the are you have specified; you need 26,053 units of wood. You currently have 3,058 units of wood. You need 22, 995 units of wood. Wait until resources are available, or begin construction?]

[Commencing construction! Time to completion: 1 week, 3 days, 14 hours, 33 minutes and 44 seconds. Please harvest more units of wood to complete construction,]

Well that was that for any sort of construction, for now at least. The ants would be working tirelessly to gather the wood, and since they only needed about six hours to gather roughly a thousand units of wood, if not a bit more, then it would take a few days but there should be a steady influx of wood to help complete the construction.

The settlement has leveled up quite a bit, but this was mainly due to the help of the quests, with higher levels, the percentage of exp gained from gathering resources wasn't so high anymore, and it would need larger amounts of resources to be able to get that 5% exp progression that would help propel the settlement forwards. But Rezar wasn't so worried, with time there'll be lots of people doing one thing or the other that would bring a steady influx of exp and help level this place up.

But there were also other things he had to address, and chief amongst that was the fact that the dungeon core was no longer active, or better yet it could be said to be dormant until the settlement levels up to a village. So he would be unable to have a steady stream of spawned giant fire ants to help out with the efforts here. Not to mention he had wanted giving his summon undead skill to the dungeon core so that it would utilize the skill to summon undead, at a steady and regular interval. But that too will have to wait until the settlement grows into a village.

[Your Undead has been attacked by a contingent of Goblin Wolf Riders! You have lost 17 units of undead]

QUEST ALERT!

[Your settlement is under attack from contingent of Goblin Wolf Riders. Repel or defeat their forces. / Time Limit: 40 minutes/ Reward: Random Scout tower skill tome with 5 uses, 100% exp progression]

Well then, it's time to go take care of some goblins. But before that, Rezar had one very important think to take care of, and that was to see just how extensive his skill list was now.

So many skill points, and sure it would be nice to raise the level of some of the skills, but Rezar knew it wasn't enough to make a dent in his major skills. Apparition alone needed 50 skill points to go up a level, and this was the reason a lot of people had dozens of classes at a time. Levels grew slowly, but if you have a lot of base classes, the bonus would help increase your stats, and the level ups of those classes would give you the skill points necessary to level up your skills if you were the type who couldn't train them the hard way.

Rezar shook his head as he placed his hand on his back, there was a feeling of warmth there as he smiled and said. "Varka wake up, we have a job to do."
