Ji Chen casually replied when he saw the question.

“For the residents to live in.”

“For the residents? I don’t even live that well. I’m so jealous, it’s making me feel sour.” “Seems like you have an abundance of resources to spare! Building such nice houses for the residents… Look at my territory, it’s just shabby thatched huts!”

“I’m envious to the point of separation!”

More and more players flooded into the thread, expressing their envy and astonishment after seeing the pictures.

In addition to admiring the beautiful scenery, they were also amazed by Ji Chen’s wealth.

They discovered that these were houses that required nearly a thousand units of resources to build.

…..

While it wouldn’t be surprising for someone to build such a residence for themselves, it was quite unusual to build ten of them for the residents.

For most players at this stage, they would construct simple dwellings for the residents, as they required fewer resources. They would allocate the majority of their resources towards recruiting troops and purchasing food.

To build so many exquisite houses, it naturally required a significant amount of resources.

Resources don’t just fall from the sky.

This could only mean one thing: the player known as “Lonely Islander” in their eyes had reached a level of resource abundance in their territory that was truly remarkable.

Many players were even more envious and jealous of this conjecture.

He had already started to build beautiful houses for his residents to live in, but they were still struggling to decide whether they should be eating meat for their next meal or to save some dry rations.

Why was there such a big difference between them?

Seeing the comments from the idiotic players, Ji Chen’s small sense of vanity was satisfied. Satisfied with the response, he closed the forum contentedly.

Appropriate flaunting and timely satisfaction of vanity can help ignite the motivation to strive for more.

The forum is an excellent place for this, as long as one didn’t get overshadowed by others.

After enjoying a moment of satisfaction, Ji Chen felt energized throughout his body. He immediately called upon his army and headed towards the giant forest where the native tribe resided.

Today’s plan was clear. Explore the three subsidiary islands in the northwest of the main island. There were currently six subsidiary islands remaining in the entire archipelago, as well as the mountain peak suspected to be a dragon’s nest that hadn’t been explored.

He intended to visit all of them in the next few days. Starting with the three subsidiary islands in the northwest.

After a two-hour trek, Ji Chen arrived at the location of the native tribe. The elderly leader of the tribe, with his white hair, welcomed him and respectfully performed a bow.

“My Lord, there has been progress in the search for suitable locations to cultivate sea rice, as you instructed,” the leader said solemnly.

“We have discovered a large area of lowland in the southwest direction of the main island, which has been invaded by seawater. It is highly suitable for cultivating sea rice.” Upon hearing this, Ji Chen’s eyebrows raised in delight.

The entire main island was inclined from northeast to southwest. The terrain in the southwest was the lowest, and it was also the easiest to be flooded by seawater.

“Then we should start to plant sea rice on a large scale as soon as possible. In the future, the population of the territory will increase, and we need more food from sea rice.”

“I will follow your will,” the elderly woman respectfully bowed and continued, “My Lord, is there something specific you came here for today?”

“I need a canoe. I want to explore the three subsidiary islands on the northwest side,” Ji Chen replied.

As a ruler, this request was naturally not a problem.

Soon, a canoe was brought over. Six native people sat in it, responsible for paddling for him.

Ji Chen got on board, while the rest of the troops either swam in the water or floated in the air.

With the wooden paddles stroking the water’s surface, the canoe sailed out of the giant forest and reached the open sea.

The color of the sea became slightly deeper, indicating an increase in depth.

Holding onto the slightly swaying canoe, Ji Chen looked into the distance.

The three islands formed a crescent shape, arranged in order.

Two of them were covered in trees, while the last one was bare, with only a protruding reef above the water’s surface. A large group of seagulls circled and landed there.

The reef was piled with a thick layer of white substance.

Ji Chen’s expression became somewhat peculiar.

That white substance… Was it bird droppings?

If he remembered correctly, bird droppings seemed to be a rather good fertilizer.

Perhaps sea rice would need this?

“With the use of Kimkara, the yield per mu is 1,800.”

After planting the sea rice, he could send the kobolds to collect some bird droppings here and use them as fertilizer.

Let’s see if the already high-yielding sea rice will increase its production?

The main island and the first sub-island on the northwest side were separated by a shallow sea of one or two kilometers. With the speed of the canoe, it would take a lot of time to reach it.

“Croak-”

He had barely traveled a few hundred meters.

The shallow-water Murlocs leading the way suddenly cried out as a warning.

On the map, hundreds of red dots surrounded him in a circle.

And the number was still increasing.

Ji Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at the distant sea.

Flying fish with thick arms, sharp teeth, and three pairs of wings on their backs jumped and glided on the water’s surface, splashing water.

[Razor Jaw Flying Fish]

[Level: 7]

[Tier: 1,8 stars]

[Skill: Sharp Fangs (Green skill, sharp teeth can bite prey until only bones are left)]

Group Battle (Green Skill, has good combat power in group battles)

Wings Flight (White Skill, Able to Glide on the Sea)

[Military characteristic: Bloodthirsty (When you smell blood, you will attack crazily)!

[I can fly]

Tier 1 8-star, Level 7.

There were so many of them that at first glance, the entire surface of the water was filled with their figures flying and gliding from the water.

It sent shivers down people’s spines.

“The Razor Jaw Flying Fish! They’ll devour us until only skeletons remain!”

The native people on the boat cried out in fear.

“No need to worry,” Ji Chen reassured calmly, waving his hand.

Leaving ten guards of the shallow sea Murlocs by their side, the rest charged forward.

Amidst the astonishment of the native people, a one-sided battle unfolded between the agile shallow sea Murlocs, fierce Naga warriors, and skilled Sea Pixies.

With their superior speed, the shallow sea Murlocs swiftly darted underwater, disrupting the flying fish swarm’s formation.

Keeping a safe distance, they swiftly eliminated the threat.

Their tridents, acting as precise fishing spears, impaled each flying fish with swift and clean strikes.

The Naga warriors, with their immense strength, brought a new level of ferocity to the battle.

Their massive bodies crashed into the fish swarm, intensifying the chaos that had already ensued.

Every part of their bodies became a lethal weapon, as they used their sheer force to collide and incapacitate their opponents, slicing through them with their sharp bone blades.

With a powerful whip of their serpentine tails, they launched several Razor Jaw Flying Fish into the air with a resounding crack.

Their own bodies, bearing the marks of relentless combat, endured the strain.

This primal display of violence, embodied by the savage aesthetics of their fighting style, left no doubt about their prowess.

Meanwhile, the Sea Pixies unleashed their explosive tactics, wreaking havoc among the fish.

Each water arrow detonated upon impact, creating a cascade of water mixed with the blood and fragments of countless Razor Jaw Flying Fish.

The once tranquil blue sea transformed into a crimson-stained battlefield..
