Chapter 2: How to Break the Starting Point of the Island, Territory Panel

“Oh my god, what the deity said was true, a true lord of glory has appeared!”

“Lord, please lead us to survive here!”

“Our Lord, with your arrival, good times are coming!”

These words entered his ears one by one.

Ji Chen’s eyes showed realization.

As if he had been struck by lightning, he suddenly understood the language. It should be a newcomer’s privilege to help them quickly grasp the common language of this world.

And these villagers should also be the same kind of new player privilege.

Looking at these ragged, skinny villagers, their faces were filled with lingering worries and anxieties, and their speech was full of excitement and awe.

In the face of Ji Chen’s arrival, they looked both happy and a little afraid.

Faced with more than forty pairs of hopeful eyes, Ji Chen felt slightly moved.

“Be Quiet,” he said calmly.

As soon as he finished speaking.

The villagers immediately closed their mouths and looked at him eagerly.

“I ask, you answer, understand?”

“Yes, respected Lord of Glory!”

The villagers nodded in unison like school children answering a teacher’s question.

Satisfied with their response, Ji Chen continued, “My first question is, what do you mean by the term ‘Lord of Glory’?”

The villagers looked at each other in confusion, then a slightly bolder young man gathered the courage to speak up.

“In half a month ago, the gods told us that today a Glory Lord will come, they possess some incredible power.”

Ji Chen nodded lightly.

This answer wasn’t really a problem, as the game’s promotion clearly stated that players would play as a lord in the game.

And the Glory Lord is the given identity, allowing players to legitimately take over the territory.

Very well, now the second question, what is this place? What’s worth noticing around here?

With the first question as a preface, the villagers were less afraid and restrained.

They also seemed to feel that Ji Chen was actually easy to get along with, so they quickly answered the second question.

“We don’t know exactly where this is. A month ago, our ship was caught in a storm and was stranded here after the ship was damaged. We only know that this is an island.”

Upon hearing their answer, Ji Chen’s brow furrowed.

This place was actually an island?

He initially thought that this place was just close to the seaside, but it turned out to be on an island surrounded by the sea!

This could be difficult.

Starting on an island was difficult, the middle stage was difficult, and the later stage was also difficult!

Not to mention the deadly issues of food and fresh water.

External transportation, tsunami disasters, land resources, and so on.

In his impression, islands were often associated with death.

But fortunately, the villagers’ following words made him feel a little relieved.

“However, when we went out to search for food earlier, we found that this island is quite large. We walked for a long time and didn’t reach the other end. There are also many wild beasts in the jungle.”

“In the north of the territory, there is a stream where we get our freshwater.”

“Before you arrived, there seemed to be a mysterious force in this open space that kept the beasts and monsters away…”

Ji Chen’s spirits were lifted.

Elemental Perception!

Beasts, streams, mysterious powers.

According to what they said, the size of this island should not be small, at least enough to form an ecosystem that can accommodate wild beasts.

Moreover, looking around, the surrounding forests are very dense, and there are plenty of resources such as wood.

Wild beasts don’t approach this open space, which is probably also a condition given to newbies to prevent players from being attacked as soon as they land and die immediately.

At this point, Jichen also remembered the stranded ship he saw on the beach earlier, which should be the ship mentioned by these villagers.

It seems…the situation isn’t so bad?

He pondered for a moment and continued to ask, “Tell me your names and skills.”

If they wanted to survive on the island, it was necessary to make use of everyone’s strengths and abilities.

So, asking about their specialties was still necessary.

Through two rounds of questioning, the villagers had already formed a vague understanding.

—— That is, Ji Chen was easy to get along with.

Upon hearing his words, someone quickly took the lead and spoke up.

“Alan, I’m a beginner blacksmith…”

“Rui Si, I’m a beginner tailor…”

“Sake, I have no specialty or skill…”

” Wilus, I have some experience in managing internal affairs…”

One by one, the villagers spoke out their names and skills.

There were blacksmiths, tailors, and also some who didn’t have any skills at all.

When Ji Chen heard that someone had experience in domestic management, his eyes lit up.

He asked out loud.

“Where is Wilus?”

” Honorable Lord of Glory, your humble Wilus is here. ”

A middle-aged man with a proper appearance took a step forward and bowed respectfully.

Ji Chen’s interest was piqued.

Not only did he look decent, but he also knew how to bow. He looked a little different from the other villagers.

“You said you have some experience in internal affairs management?”

“Yes, my lord.”

The middle-aged man nodded respectfully and replied, “I used to be the butler of a nobleman, assisting in managing the affairs of the noble’s territory.”

“But after the nobleman died in battle, I left and ended up here after surviving a shipwreck while seeking a livelihood.”

Ji Chen nodded with admiration in his eyes.

Upon hearing such a well-organized answer, he knew that Wilus was not an ordinary person. So he had an idea and tried to check his attribute panel.

[Wilus]

[Race: Human]

[Level: 4]

[Skill: Internal Affairs Management (green skill, has a certain level of internal affairs management ability, more than enough for an undeveloped territory)]

Frugality (White skill, good at food management, can reduce food consumption speed by 10%)

[Remark: Wilus was once a butler of a nobleman. He has a certain level of internal management skills.]

It looked pretty good. There was a green skill and a white skill.

Among such a group of villagers in distress, he could be considered a talent.

When it came to talents, it was natural to make use of them.

Ji Chen nodded in understanding and said without much hesitation.

“Wilus, I now appoint you as the internal affairs officer of the territory. You will assist me in managing the affairs of the territory.”

“The rest will listen to your orders and maintain the normal operation of the territory.”

Wilus was stunned. Surprise appeared in his eyes, and his expression became slightly excited.

He then bowed again, with an even more respectful expression on his face.

“I will assist you with all my heart, my lord,” he said.

Nodding slightly, Ji Chen said, “Now, you will take over the task of counting the number of villagers and their skills.”

“Yes, my lord,” said Villus, who had just taken over as the new manager.

He quickly completed the count and reported back to Ji Chen. There were a total of 42 villagers.

Among them were three novice blacksmiths and two novice tailors.

There were also six villagers with novice fishermen and novice shipbuilder skills, who knew how to make small fishing boats and catch fish, which was one of the compensations given at the beginning of the game for starting on a difficult island.

The others did not have any skills.

However, among the 42 players, almost a quarter of them had skills, which could be considered a ‘talent pool’.

According to further inquiries, it was discovered that these villagers, after experiencing a shipwreck and being stranded on this island, found this natural clearing in the forest and built a few simple stilted wooden houses to live in. The slightly larger stilted wooden house in the middle was built as the lord’s mansion after they received news a few days ago that a “glory lord” was coming. However, judging by their disheveled and hungry appearance, they probably haven’t been doing well here.

After gaining a preliminary understanding of the villagers, the territory panel in the menu bar also lit up and can now be accessed.

Ji Chen pondered and opened the territory panel.
