The six consecutive notifications appearing before Noan made it montarily difficult for him to "digest" all the information.
Before he could comprehend what was happening, two magical circles appeared in the middle of the yard.
Two dark figures slowly erged within the mystical circles, which were emitting that strange, mysterious light.
After the magic circles disappeared, Noan could see that one of them was a girl with greenish skin, long ears, and a solid build, like a bodybuilder.
She had a beautiful face, yet it exuded a sense of determination and strength.
What was especially striking was that she had so tattoos and scales on her body, resembling those of the Lizard tribe.
The other person... hm... Noan wasn't sure how to describe them, but they resembled plague doctors.
The person wore a black cloak that covered their body, and their face was concealed by a mask resembling a bird's beak, making them look mysterious and dangerous.
"Master!" Both knelt in front of him and spoke.
Noan has reread the system's notifications.
He realized that the two NPCs he summoned possessed two classes he needed.
No, not just him—any ruler would need NPCs like these.
With two supporting NPCs, the strength of the monsters under his command would surely be greatly enhanced.
It must be understood that the monsters under his command almost had no weapons. Everything they used was free, and when he summoned them, they had already acquired these weapons.
Although his monsters were very powerful, they could not fully unleash their strength without proper armant.
Moreover, the Alchemist Master played an extrely important role.
Noan thought montarily and decided to na the Alchemist Master "Khorvath" and the Blacksmith Master "Thalira."
Imdiately after, two information panels appeared in front of Noan.
…
Na: Khorvath
Class: Alchemist Master (D)
Level: 00
Description: Khorvath possesses a vast knowledge of herbs and can craft most low-level potions and a few high-level ones.
Note: The higher Khorvath's rank, the higher his chance of crafting perfect potions, and the higher the chance of creating high-rank potions.
…
Na: Thalira
Class: Blacksmith Master (D)
Level: 00
Description: Thalira can craft almost all types of equipnt. She also can identify tal ores or precious stones.
Note: The higher Thalira's rank, the higher her chances of crafting high-quality equipnt. Her ability to find tal ores and precious stones improves with her rank.
…
After reading the information panels about the two special NPCs, Noan felt increasingly pleased.
When he summoned these two NPCs, he initially thought the lack of materials would make them useless.
However, they could also gather materials independently, saving him a lot of ti and effort.
In fact, Noan just wanted to be lazy and let others handle everything.
If others did it well, he wouldn't need to worry too much about their expertise.
Noan opened the sidebar and saw two new projects still to be built, which were placed in the waiting area.
Those were the Forge and the Research Room.
However, he knew that even though these two buildings wouldn't take up too much space once constructed, their impact would not be small.
Just thinking about the potential consequences, if anything went wrong, or simply, if the research room exploded and chemicals were scattered around, the affected area would surely be imnse.
Nevertheless, he couldn't build these two structures outside the territory.
Therefore, he decided to upgrade the Territory. He used the materials he had to proceed for the first upgrade.
[Ding! You have successfully upgraded. Your territory has expanded to 20,000 square ters.
You now have an additional cultivation area (3,000 square ters).
The NPC housing area has been expanded to 10 houses.]
Noan continued to give the command: "Use the Territory Upgrade Card."
[Ding! The use of the 'Territory Upgrade Card' has been successful. Your territory has reached level 3.
Your territory has expanded to 40,000 square ters.
The cultivation area has expanded to 5,000 square ters (Increasing crop developnt speed and agricultural yield).
The NPC housing area has been expanded to 15 houses (When NPCs are in this area, their physical and ntal strength will recover better and faster).
You now have a new Livestock Area (5,000 square ters).]
Seeing the significantly larger territory, Noan nodded in satisfaction.
Although the cultivation and livestock areas took up 10,000 square ters, those two areas had special effects, and of course, they were extrely necessary.
After all, there was still plenty of space, and he could continue to upgrade the territory later.
Noan then continued to use the NPC upgrade cards, and soon, the bodies of the NPCs began to change.
Although the changes were minor, Noan could still notice them.
The NPCs beca stronger, and they also beca slightly more beautiful.
Only the two special NPCs, Khorvath and Thalira, did not change.
[Ding! You have successfully upgraded regular NPCs. Regular NPCs have gained combat abilities and can undertake more complex tasks.]
[Ding! You have successfully upgraded special NPCs. The success rate of special NPCs crafting high-quality items has slightly increased.]
Seeing this, Noan began to make adjustnts on the sidebar, shifting the positions of the buildings to better fit the new area.
It took him the entire morning to finish, and he was satisfied with the outco. Afterward, he had lunch with Vylyss.
Although he could use food potions for convenience, he preferred the sensation of his tongue touching real food.
Eating delicious food is also a form of enjoynt.
Instead of checking his phone while eating, Noan was now looking at the system information panel.
He looked at the unused items, thinking about how to optimize their effects to the highest level.
Finally, Noan decided to use the "Soldier Upgrade Card" to raise all of his soldiers to level 3.
After all, his soldiers couldn't level up by themselves, so using the "Soldier Upgrade Card" was necessary.
Noan's eyes focused on the "Lord Upgrade Card" and the "Hero Upgrade Card," and he sighed inwardly.
Although he had reached rank E and had over 12,000 Lord points, he couldn't continue to advance his Lord rank any further.
Why? Because this area couldn't support a Lord of rank D, so E was the maximum limit.
He knew his speculation might be a bit far-fetched, but he still believed the areas would likely rge.
Why?
Not for any reason, just his intuition telling him it might happen.
However, logically speaking, it resembled an online ga.
When too few players are on different servers, rging the servers becos unavoidable.
Noan believed that this world would also operate similarly.
Thus, Noan didn't rush to use the "Lord Upgrade Card" and decided to use the energy essence to level up.
[Ding! You cannot level up because you must complete the Class Selection Quest.]
[Ding! Would you like to perform the Class Selection Quest now?]
Noan imdiately rembered that Lords could have a Class when they reached level 4, but they would need to complete a special quest.
He didn't rush, slowly savoring his al with Vylyss before heading to the "Combat Simulation Room" to train.
By the afternoon, he had gathered all the remaining items he owned.
One Hero Upgrade Card, one Lord Upgrade Card, one ticket to a special event, one free building construction card, one storage space x99, one blueprint, one Dark Seed, and one Dark Essence.
Noan thought for a long while, not wanting to use any of the cards because using them today wouldn't maximize their benefits.
He decided to use the remaining materials to upgrade all his heroes.
After opening the chest and gathering many resources from the Lords he had defeated, he now had plenty of energy essence.
[Ding! You have successfully upgraded all of your heroes. All of your heroes have reached level 3.]
