What the Bald Witch Tribe said to the Cook Tribe was undoubtedly a declaration of war.

Either surrender directly, or be annexed after being defeated by them.

Lin Qianan said that the other party was asking for his own death.

Immediately manipulating Nian boarded the watchtower and spoke back.

[Read: The Cook tribe will not be afraid of all challenges. If you fight over, prepare for death. 】

Hearing the sound, Holo, the leader of the Bald Witch Tribe, said nothing, and immediately turned to leave.

After a period of time, thousands of warriors appeared in front of the Cook tribe.

They carried a variety of weapons, including even rudimentary siege vehicles with siege cones.

This is to break through the fence of the Cook tribe and then snatch it.

It's a pity that Lin Qian'an didn't plan to get close to them.

On the high platforms above the fence, the Cook tribe warriors armed with bows and arrows are ready, and several trebuchets have also been placed in various launching positions, ready to start at any time.

Then, Lin Qianan manipulated Nian to open the [Long Shot] bow, and the [Searching for Enemies] arrow directly aimed at the eyeballs of the leader of the Bald Witch Tribe, Horo.

Whoosh!

The arrow flew into the sky and disappeared.

Poof~!

The arrow went into Hollo's eyeball.

Then Hollo fell.

The warriors of the Bald Witch Tribe were obviously stunned, and then began to panic on a large scale.

The warriors of the Cook tribe took the opportunity to pull their bows to sneak attack, and at the same time, Lin Qianan asked the trebuchet to launch a boulder to see the effect.

Bang~!

The processed stone bomb with the [Explosive] skill exploded directly, and after it landed, dozens of people around were all killed.

Lin Qian'an hurriedly stopped the soldiers who were loading stone bombs, and it was enough to deter them. These are all population and labor, and killing too many is not a good thing.

At this time, the warriors of the Bald Witch Tribe outside were completely panicked and began to flee in all directions.

Taking this opportunity, Lin Qianan controlled Nian to ride a domesticated grunt, and led a group of warriors who had practiced foreign skills and wore armor to go straight to the outside world.

[Reading: Those who descend do not kill! ! 】

Hearing Nian's words, the people of the Bald Witch tribe quickly expressed their willingness to surrender.

Not long after, except for the hundred or ten Bald Witch tribe warriors who had fled to an unknown distance, all the rest were captured by the Cook tribe.

After a battle, the Cook tribe was unscathed, while the leader of the Bald Witch tribe was killed directly. Nearly a hundred people were killed and injured directly under the attack of bows, arrows and catapults, and all the rest were captured.

Lin Qianan felt that this was the modern army beating primitive people.

If it was the first encounter with the other party, he would still feel a little uncomfortable, and he would definitely have to pay a little price.

But now, what is there to say about the crushing bureau?

The Cook tribe seized a large amount of equipment from the warriors of the Bald Witch tribe. Of course, these were not used for birds.

The only thing worth mentioning is the axe in the hands of their leader Holo.

Except for the handle, this thing is completely black and looks extremely irregular, but when Lin Qianan manipulated his mind to hit it with an ordinary stone axe, he heard a dull sound when the metal was hit.

So this thing is metal?

They mastered the technology of smelting metal?

No, the technology of metal smelting can be so rubbish, how can it resist one or two.

Lin Qian'an knew that this must be something made of ore that naturally contains a lot of metals.

In other words, the Bald Witch Tribe knew of a metal vein.

Lin Qianan directly inquired the captives where the Bald Witch tribe was located, and then planned to lead his own people to occupy it.

In this era where animals have not been domesticated as leg strength, and no means of transportation have been developed, the most important condition for crusade against other tribes is that they cannot be too far away.

So unsurprisingly, the Cook tribe and the Bald Witch tribe are only one forest away.

Across the other end of the forest is where the Bald Witch tribe is located.

There are also simple triangular houses built here, and the life of the tribal residents is also very shabby, which is completely inferior to the Cook tribe.

When Lin Qianan manipulated Nian to come here under the leadership of the Leading Party, they still couldn't react.

The warriors of the Cook tribe showed a little bit of force, and the people of the Bald Witch tribe gave up their resistance.

The technological level and combat effectiveness of the two sides are not at the same level at all, and there is absolutely no capital to compete.

Lin Qianan decided to digest all these populations and classify them into the Cook tribe.

At the same time, under the leadership of the Leading Party, he came to the place where Horo found the natural metal ore.

This is a river with many stones in it, some of which have been washed away for a long time, revealing a black appearance.

Lin Qianan manipulated Nian to strike with a stone axe, and found that the nature of this thing is extremely stable, extremely hard, and won't break easily, at least it takes two or three hits to break.

Going up the riverbed, Lin Qianan found more stones with black metal.

Of course, there is no stone that can be directly made into a stone axe, only Holo has one in his hand.

There is no doubt that there is a metal vein in this area.

If it can be refined, it will be able to point to a new technology tree.

Immediately, Lin Qian'an presided over the annexation matters, so that all the people of the Bald Witch tribe were relocated to the place where the Cook tribe was, and at the same time, he also began to prepare for smelting the black metal ore here.

He collected a batch of black metal ore, loaded it into the warehouse, and brought it back to the Cook tribe.

Immediately, the newly built earth blast furnace and charcoal began to try to smelt metal ore.

With the blower blowing, the charcoal soon burned.

Because of the skills given by the skill grant book, Lin Qian'an's smelting process has also become extremely easy.

The metal ore is directly dissolved at high temperature, and then put into an earthen mold to solidify and form. After a little cooling, it is placed under a large stone hammer driven by a waterwheel by the river for repeated firing and then beating to quench impurities.

Although the process was simple, Lin Qianan quickly obtained the first piece of black metal that was not so square.

This thing is harder than stone and wood, and it will not be damaged easily.

Untitled item [white]

Quality: excellent

Durability: 186/186

[Note: It should be very useful to smash people. 】

Lin Qian'an named it "Black Iron", and after recording the drawings, it can be built directly from the raw materials of black iron ore.

Black iron is directly at the level of white, so it shouldn't be bad if you want to build items.

Lin Qianan directly chose the stone axe blueprint to try.

Not long after, a pitch-black black iron axe appeared in front of him.

Black Iron Axe [White]

Quality: ordinary

Durability: 428/428

[Explanation: Suddenly want to cut something? 】

This durability far exceeds that of a stone axe, even if it is the best.

Lin Qianan chopped down the tree with the black iron axe, and then came to a conclusion.

Although it is not as good as the stone axe with skills, the effect is not bad. If the quality is a little higher, and the skills are added, this material must be stronger.

Lin Qian'an has lit up new material technology, and the Cook tribe has absorbed the 5,000 people of the Bald Witch tribe.

In an instant, the Cook tribe became a large tribe with more than 6,000 people.

The annexation of such a large clan created more internal problems.

It's no longer as simple as the original management.

Lin Qianan decided to establish a country and revise the code to maintain the operation of the tribe.

As for the name of the country, Lin Qianan gave it directly to several elders in the village.

So they decided to call the country Nianguo.

Then Lin Qianan raised the issue of the national flag. This thing must have, and it has great symbolic meaning.

At present, the Cook tribe has initially mastered the skills of weaving, and can barely make some patterned clothing and rough cloth utensils.

After some deliberation, everyone in the tribe wanted to use the image of Nian as the national flag.

But Lin Qianan felt that this was too ridiculous and inappropriate.

And they may not be able to create such complex characters.

In the end, Lin Qianan finalized the pattern of the national flag as a simple cross pattern of a stone axe and a wooden sickle.

Cough~!

And then there's the code thing.

The draft code doesn't need to be too complicated, it just stipulates what can and cannot be done.

After the compilation of the first volume of the code was completed, Lin Qianan even got another achievement.

[Hint: You have unlocked the achievement [National Law], obtained the reward, and judged the scale [Grey]*1. ]

[State-owned State Law: Codification of a Code. (Note: There are family rules in the family, and there are state laws in the state!)]

[Judgment Libra [Grey]: It can be placed in a judgment building to judge whether the other party has violated the law. The cooling time is one day. [Currently available: 1/1] (Note: The scale of judgment will increase with the level of the placed building.)]

This thing is a rather ordinary looking scale, the size of only one person tall.

He randomly built a wooden house as a courthouse.

Then put the [Judgment Libra] in.

Immediately, the scale of judgment was naturally embedded in the place where it was placed.

However, the scale was tilted to the right at this time. According to the prompt, Lin Qianan placed a code on the left, and the scale slowly balanced.

Lin Qianan studied it for a while, and then understood how to use it according to the prompts.

The method of using this thing is very simple. After starting the scale, aim at a certain person to judge. If the other party violates the law, the scale will tilt to the right, indicating that the other party is greater than the law in the code, and the dictionary entry that it violates will also be appear in the void.

What I want to mention here is that [Judgment Libra] is the same as [Skill Granting Book], except for reciting, only its designated judicial judges and librarians can use it.

With the law, the national flag, and the population, the Nianguo can be established.

Lin Qianan found a better day, raised the national flag directly, and let people read the code of law, established Nianguo, and let Nian ascend the throne of the monarch.

[Hint: You have unlocked the achievement [The Beginning of Civilization] and obtained the reward, the basic city blueprint [Green]. ]

[The Beginning of Civilization: Build a country with a population of more than 5,000. (Note: This is the embryonic form of a great civilization.)]

[Basic City Blueprint [Green]: Processing wood*300000, processing stone*500000. (Construction consumes 800000 stamina)]

The materials required for this drawing are simple, just processing wood and processing stone.

Although the number has reached a relatively exaggerated level, it is not impossible.

The problem is the construction.

Temporarily, the warehouse can't hold so many materials, and there is another problem that the required stamina cannot be provided! !

Lin Qianan clicked on the drawing, and his expression became extremely tangled.

There happened to be processed wood and processed stone in the warehouse. He also put a little bit of it. Looking at the huge gap, his expression became very subtle.

At this moment, Lin Qian'an's expression suddenly changed.

Because he found that the word "construction" lit up.

If you look at the materials required for the entire drawing, Lin Qian'an's current investment is only a drop in the bucket.

And for this material, why does the [Build] option light up?

Lin Qianan clicked tentatively, and immediately, the viewing angle was increased, and a huge 3D construction model appeared in front of him, and with the mouse, he could move around Nian at will, and all of them were green buildable options.

In other words, Lin Qianan can build it directly wherever he places it?

Is there not enough material? Physical strength is not enough!

With doubts, Lin Qianan clicked on the location of the tribe.

[Hint: There are other buildings in the currently constructed drawing position, please select [Auto Plan], [Adjust] or [Destroy]. ]

Lin Qianan looked at the detailed meaning of the three options. [Automatic planning] is to treat the buildings where the drawings are constructed as the buildings in this drawing. During the construction process, these buildings will be automatically planned to reasonable locations, and a certain amount of money will be consumed. The materials allow them to also match the building on the drawings.

And "adjustment" means that Lin Qian'an manually adjusts the drawings so that the buildings on the drawings will not conflict with the original buildings.

As for [Destruction], it is to directly destroy the original building by consuming physical strength to construct new blueprints.

Of course, Lin Qian'an will not destroy the original building, and he finds it a little troublesome to manually adjust it, so his choice is [automatic planning].

As Lin Qianan clicked, the location of the building on the drawing changed, and the original buildings were also affected and began to change their location.

Nian's stamina was quickly consumed in the process, and after a while, it directly decreased to the level of triggering the [Never Ending] skill.

And it's still falling.

If this drops directly to zero, wouldn't it be a G?

Lin Qianan was so frightened that he clicked on the phantom of the blueprint under construction, and the construction of the blueprint was immediately terminated.

Lin Qianan was stunned for a moment, then clicked again.

The construction continued, and the stamina was quickly consumed again.

Lin Qianan clicked the mouse again, and it stopped again.

And Lin Qianan found that he seemed to be able to continue to put materials into it.

Click the left button, and the general information of the drawing will appear, and you can continue to input materials from the warehouse.

At this moment, Lin Qianan seemed to understand something.

It turns out that the construction drawings do not need to be completed at one time, you can take your time.

You can choose to terminate in the middle, and materials can also be slowly put in in batches.

This very user-friendly design made Lin Qian'an's heart instantly relieved.

Lin Qian'an immediately set a new goal in Nianguo. In the following days, he would work hard to dig stones and wood to build the city.

A country of more than 6,000 people is fully functioning, which is still very scary.

All kinds of materials began to be sent to Nian in an endless stream, and what Lin Qianan did was to manipulate Nian while eating food to recover his physical strength, while processing the materials, and then putting them all into the blueprints to start building this basic city.

The materials used for processing and construction have both advantages and disadvantages, but in the face of such a huge building, Lin Qianan did not dare to ask for too much, and all quality materials had to be used.

Along with Nian's stamina dropping crazily, various houses and buildings in Nian's country are also rapidly being generated, and at the same time, some changes have occurred in the original buildings.

The original wooden fence outside is now beginning to be shrouded in stone walls, and the wood from which the fence was built is now the material for other new buildings.

Watching a huge city gradually rise from the ground, the shock is unparalleled.

The new members of the Bald Witch Tribe were originally in awe of Nian's existence, but now they have more respect and worship.

Three months passed quickly in the game, 300,000 pieces of processed wood and 500,000 pieces of processed stone had already been collected, the nearby forests had been cut down, and most of the lofty mountains had been cut down.

And under the consumption of physical strength day and night, the entire city is almost completed.

Finally, when a little snow drifted in the sky, the construction of the city was completed.

The thick city wall is about 20 meters high, the huge city gate is 15 meters high, there are various buildings that can accommodate tens of thousands of people, and the streets are wide enough for four horses to walk together.

Everything here shocked the people of Nianguo.

Unnamed base city [green]

Quality: excellent

Durability: 238251/238251

Skills: Slow repair, strong city wall, clean and tidy, primary mental enhancement, primary physical enhancement, primary strength enhancement

[Explanation: This is a city full of happiness. 】

[Slow repair: After the city building is damaged, it can be repaired automatically, and the durability will be automatically restored to 10 per minute. ]

[Fortified city walls: The city walls are stronger. ]

[Clean and tidy: The buildings in the city will automatically remove the attached dirt. ]

[Primary Spiritual Enhancement: The spirit of formal residents living in the city +10. ]

[Primary physique enhancement: The physique of the official residents living in the city +10. ]

[Primary strength enhancement: +10 strength for regular residents living in the city. ]

Although the quality is only excellent, after seeing its detailed information, Lin Qian'an's expression is quite satisfied.

After all, for such a big building, it is definitely impossible for him to really gamble on the quality of the best. That would be too difficult.

He also tried to save the file to improve the quality when the construction was about to be completed, but in fact, the quality of the file he read dozens of times was the same.

This proves one thing, the quality of the item is actually almost determined during the construction process. If you want to bet on the quality, you must rebuild it from scratch, or add more advanced materials during the construction process.

And this building also overturned a judgment of Lin Qianan.

That is, only the best constructions have skills.

Now it seems that not only the best creations have skills, but maybe other quality creations can also have skills. It was not available before, but the materials and drawings for the construction are not high enough.

After some research, Lin Qian'an roughly figured out the function of the city.

Lin Qianan named the city Niancheng, and at the same time circled all Nianguo people living in the city with the mouse, giving them the status of official residents.

In an instant, the blessings from the three basic strengthening skills turned them into superhumans.

As long as you are in the city of chanting, there are ten points of spiritual, physical, and strength blessings.

This is even more powerful than the current attribute of Nian.

With the blessing of these attributes, people living in it will also be easier in their daily life.

Under the admiration of the residents of Nianguo, Lin Qianan ordered a newly appointed historian to find someone to compile a history book and record everything from the establishment of Nianguo to the present.

He happily accepted the order, and then left with a salute.

Immediately, this huge city began to function.

At present, less than one-fifth of the city is populated by people, and the rest of the place seems empty. If it weren't for the city's built-in [clean and tidy] and [slow repair] skills, I am afraid that maintenance alone would be difficult.

However, the matter of population cannot be solved in a short time. It has been explored all over a hundred miles, and now there is no extra population to absorb for them.

Lin Qian'an was not in a hurry. While arranging people to mine black iron ore, he installed another batch of earth blast furnaces by the river.

In fact, after obtaining the black iron blueprint, Lin Qianan can manipulate the mind to directly build the black iron, but the problem is that this is a fixed ratio.

If the metal is mixed with other elements in different ratios, the resulting metal materials will also have different properties.

So the same black iron, the smelting formula is different, the results will be different.

He needs to let the craftsmen research various ratios and get the best drawing.

At the same time, the historian appointed by Lin Qian'an also completed his work and compiled the first edition of the history book.

By the way, now Nianguo already has something like paper, and the papermaking technique has been researched by artisans entrusted by Lin Qianan. Although the material of the paper below the fine quality is slightly rough, there is no problem in normal use. .

What's more, Lin Qian'an usually builds directly from blank books, and it is very easy to bet on a superb blank book.

After the history book was handed over to Nian, Lin Qianan manipulated Nian to read it. Although the bragging about Nian's achievements and abilities was a bit exaggerated, it was generally true.

So Lin Qian'an directly affirmed the content inside, and determined that this history book was the national history of Nianguo.

[Hint: You have unlocked the achievement [Scars of Time], obtained rewards, and the quality improvement pool [Green] blueprint*1. ]

[Scarred by the Years: Writing a History Book. (Note: Recording makes time meaningful.)]

[Quality Improvement Pool [Green]: Any solid material*500, any top-quality liquid material*100. (Construction requires 1000 stamina)]

Unlocking the achievement is in Lin Qian'an's vision, otherwise he would not urge the other party to compile a history book.

To Lin Qian'an's surprise, he actually obtained new architectural drawings.

And the name made him feel that this thing seemed a little special.

Immediately, Lin Qianan was ready to start building this new blueprint.

Any solid material in front of *500 is easy to say, but the best liquid material *100 is not easy to come.

All Lin Qianan could think of was boiling water.

That's right, Lin Qianan also has boiling water drawings.

[Boiled Water Drawing [Ash]: Water*1, Processed Charcoal*1. (Construction consumes stamina value 2)]

With this drawing, you can bet the best "boiling water" out.

By the way, after the water temperature is cool, the quality of the water will also change, from excellent to excellent, and the longer it is left, the faster the quality will drop.

Therefore, Lin Qian'an always felt that this drawing was very tasteless, and it could only be used to assist in cooking dishes or something.

But now, it doesn't seem to be so useless.

So Lin Qianan started to build this new building directly with the processed stones and the best boiling water.

It is worth mentioning that the material water can be used repeatedly. Even if he does not build the best boiling water, Lin Qianan can wait for it to cool down and turn into ordinary water before building it again.

As a result, 100 copies of the best boiling water were quickly gathered, and Lin Qianan immediately began to build a quality improvement pool.

As Nian's physical strength decreased, a large pool surrounded by stones appeared in front of Lin Qian'an's eyes.

The pool is round, about ten meters in diameter, and is filled with boiling water.

Quality improvement pool [white]

Quality: superb

Skill: Quality Improvement

Durability: 156/156

[Description: Put everything in it and cook it! 】

[Quality improvement: Items soaked in the quality improvement pool will improve their quality over time. (Note: The current quality improvement pool can only improve the quality of gray and white items.)]
