Chapter 561: Chapter 561
Du You reviewed the newly collected information with great interest. This kind of information is not something he can currently acquire, as it is only available on the three-tier Magic Network.
Because of his own plans, Du You had currently paused advancing his rank, remaining at level 19. If he advanced to level 20, he would start the promotion quest. Therefore, information that only three-tier colonists would know, he couldn’t acquire for now.
"So that’s how it is. The development of a territory has so many crucial aspects of information. I didn’t realise that I don’t have any of the three major functional buildings for a territory, which are indeed the real foundation."
The information displayed that a true territory required three major functional buildings: the Lord’s Mansion, Mage Tower, and Skill Hall. Although these were generic terms and some had other names, their functions were similar.
The Lord’s Mansion is not a random building, but a true functional building.
Wild cities were able to establish themselves because they had territories with Lord’s Mansions supporting them from behind. One of the most substantial functions of the Lord’s Mansion is to create a stable space-time passage connecting Earth and the Other World. This passage could replace the role of the World Boat and allow people here to cross to the other side freely.
Conversely, some people from the Other World could also freely enter Earth. However, those from the Other World were bound by the Law of Earth when entering, for instance, they could only move about within the boundaries of the territory.
Even so, they could use the troops made in the Other World to protect their own cities. The development of many large cities on Earth actually relies on the strong territories behind them.
Of course, large cities like the capital are not supported by only one or two territories. It’s a pity that the space-time passages connected by the City Lord’s Mansion are all located in the central area, said to be within the fifth ring. Du You had no access due to his current status.
In other words, once you have a territory and a Lord’s Mansion, you would then have the opportunity to build your own city.
If, instead of building a city, you wish to establish a powerful corporate group, these conditions are necessary. "No wonder they consider setting up their own companies when they acquire a territory development slot. Now I understand the main reason."
Du You finally understood why the upper-classmen were so excited. If not for the sake of territorial development, which led them to discuss various pieces of information everywhere, Du You wouldn’t have had the chance to obtain anything in this respect. After some time, this kind of information would gradually disappear as the incident cools down and be buried by other information.
Every day a large amount of information is produced. To find what is required from previously covered information is genuinely not easy, even with the abilities of the wristwatch elf.
Besides the Lord’s Mansion, the second most significant functional building is the Mage Tower. In reality, the Mage Tower is a collective term, and there are other similar principal buildings with more or less the same function.
The most significant function of the Mage Tower is not training mages but enhancing the defense capacity of the territory. An essential component of a territory’s sustained and stable development is its strength, which is not simply military power.
The Mage Tower possesses immense defensive power and is the complete defensive system for the whole territory.
Most importantly, the Mage Tower is an integral part of the territory’s resistance to the Heaven and Earth Laws. Du You finally understood that the citizens he created actually had a problem.
Although theoretically, the citizens should have a much higher and more balanced talent than the natives, if they actually cultivate, their progress will be slowed down due to the suppression of the current world’s power. Although theoretically, the citizens’ cultivation can break through the limit of the territory’s rank, it is very difficult in practice.
After being suppressed by the world law, it is impossible for them to reach the territory’s rank limit. Furthermore, the citizens’ minds are not very flexible, which is also due to the suppression of the world law.
However, it would be different if a Mage Tower is established. The Mage Tower built in the territory can resist world law.
Within the territory’s boundaries, the citizens summoned by Du You could fully utilize their talents, allowing for better cultivation. Thus, some real experts could emerge in the territory.
These individuals could break through the territory’s rank limit, further assisting the development of the territory.
Similarly, some people with special talents, such as command and administrative abilities, are the cornerstones of the territory’s advancement. Only by possessing a Mage Tower can a territory ensure the most stable development. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝙣𝙚𝙩
The third major functional building is the Skill Hall, which is perhaps the most important building for professionals.
The Skill Hall is specifically designed to evolve skills. For different branches of the armed forces in a territory, their skills are somewhat lacking, but the Skill Hall can gradually evolve them, providing more and better skills that can be used immediately once trained.
Similarly, the Skill Hall can also evolve the branches of the armed forces into new ones, or combine previous branches to form stronger ones. This means you do not need to gather special professionals from outside areas to unlock new branches of the armed forces, as you can develop them yourself.
For professionals, the Skill Hall has two primary functions. One of them is for job transition.
The place where Du You previously switched to Spellcaster can be considered a Skill Hall. However, that one evolved from the Derived World and is not a private territory’s Skill Hall. A private territory’s Skill Hall can also allow people to transition into special careers, providing that the territory already possesses this particular profession.
Not only can people from Earth undergo job transitions, but the citizens of the territory and the natives of the original world can also do so. Although their transition has limitations because they are not professionals after all.
After the natives and citizens make the transition, they can only improve through their own cultivation and cannot directly use Crystal Coins to advance like professionals. However, once they make the transition, they would become geniuses among geniuses within their own profession, with particularly fast cultivation rates.
Some natives with good talents who have transitioned can even be more formidable than professionals at the same level. It is rumored that at the late stage, a territory’s truly elite soldiers are all produced through transitions in the Skill Hall.
The other most significant function of the Skill Hall is to evolve one’s own skills. Rumour has it that to improve one’s own skills or learn suitable skills at a higher level, the Skill Hall’s assistance is needed. Alas, Du You’s collected information on this specific topic is insufficient, so he could only speculate.
