[Lord of Dragon Kingdom Su Yang is the first to unlock a Level 2 Main Base, unlocking the achievement: Civilization Emerges]
[Lord of Dragon Kingdom Su Yang is the first to unlock a Level 2 Main Base, unlocking the achievement: Civilization Emerges]
"WTF!!"
The US Lord stared at the notification before him, eyes wide with disbelief.
A country he had just sentenced to death had actually been the first to unlock a Level 2 Main Base.
How was this possible!!
If the first-kill achievement could be attributed to luck, then being the first to unlock the base was a complete symbol of strength.
For instance, the Lord of Spain was born in the Heart of the Hive; just building walls and summoning soldiers in the early stages would exhaust all his command points.
Let alone upgrading the Main Base, even upgrading other technological buildings was impossible!
Even if other lords weren't born in such a harsh environment as the Heart of the Hive, it was impossible to unlock a Level 2 Main Base in the early stages!
Unlocking the base meant the territory had extra command points and could resist the Xenomorphs tide.
But how could this be possible!!
That was just a damn Bronze civilization!
Even he, the strongest US Lord in the early stages, was honestly building walls.
How did he dare to be the first to upgrade to a Level 2 Main Base.
Could the initial units of the Qin Dynasty all be damn Great Masters!!
...
"Baka Yarou!!!"
The Lord of Japan knelt on the ground, slicing the screen beside him in half with a single iaido strike.
Veins bulged on his face, his muscles spasmed, and his breath was filled with Killing Intent.
Not only did he steal the first-kill achievement, but he also snatched the base unlocking achievement.
The Dragon Kingdom had snatched the two most important achievements of the early stages!
These were originally achievements that they, Japan, had planned to take!
He couldn't wait any longer.
Tojo Injin stood up slowly and swung his sword forward.
"For His Majesty the Emperor, break through the novice protection!"
...
This!
Elizabeth stared blankly at the global notification.
Before she could recover from the behavior of Su Yang, who spent command points like dirt, she was shocked by the global notification once again.
Dragon Kingdom, first, Level 2 building.
A territory that was just trading basic copper resources with her had actually been the first to unlock a Level 2 Main Base?
She had worried that the 500 command points would affect the Dragon Kingdom's development progress.
Now it seemed their development progress was already ahead of all territories!
This time, her gamble had paid off; she had chosen an ally with potential.
However, while happy for Su Yang, Elizabeth also keenly perceived the hidden dangers in the Dragon Kingdom's development.
They had already unlocked a Level 2 Main Base, yet they hadn't even found the most basic copper mine resources.
This proved that Su Yang's birth point was an area severely lacking in resources.
A lack of resources meant that Late Stage development would gradually become weak.
In the future, it would depend on how Su Yang solved this problem.
There weren't many resource-poor areas in the Forbidden Ground, and the most famous one was the Heart of the Hive.
However, the Dragon Kingdom definitely wouldn't be born in the Heart of the Hive like the Lord of Spain.
That place was not only resource-poor but also extremely dangerous with Xenomorphs.
The Bronze Age units of the Dragon Kingdom definitely couldn't handle those Xenomorphs.
So where would the Dragon Kingdom's birth point be?
...
The moment the notification sounded, the Lords Hall exploded.
[Anonymous: How is this possible! Is something wrong with my eyes!!]
[Anonymous: Sibal, why does the Dragon Kingdom get all the good stuff! I refuse to accept this!]
[Anonymous: Do they not have Xenomorphs at their birth point? Can they defend against them even with cold weapons!?]
[Lord of India: Brother Su Yang, you know our friendship; the copper mine in my territory is reserved for you.]
[Lord of Spain: God, I also want to go to the Dragon Kingdom's birth point. These damn bugs and plants are driving me crazy.]
...
The crowd in the Lords Hall was clamoring.
Su Yang had no time to pay attention to them; he was immersed in the joy of upgrading his new Main Base.
The lords residence had been upgraded, adding an extra floor.
It now looked even more magnificent and imposing than before.
But the appearance was secondary; the important part was the rewards brought by the upgrade.
First, it was definitely the achievement for unlocking a Level 2 Main Base.
The civilization achievement was even more exaggerated than the first-kill achievement, giving 2,000 command points directly!
This was a gain that greatly exceeded Su Yang's expectations.
He didn't even know there was an achievement to unlock when he upgraded the base.
The 2,000 command points received directly offset the cost of buying the copper mine, and there were 1,400 points left over.
After the command points reward, there were various new buildings and facilities brought by the base upgrade.
First, the upgrade brought two additional steam mining machines and one steam water pump.
This would further increase the resource acquisition speed of the territory.
Next was the new defensive building—ballista tower.
The ballista tower was equipped with a heavy ballista, which could not only scout but also perform long-range shooting.
A Level 2 Main Base could build up to 4 ballista towers.
Then there was technology; the upgrade brought a series of new technologies that could be unlocked.
Mining machine upgrade, wall upgrade, metal detector...
Finally, there were units; a Level 2 Main Base could upgrade the Imperial Armor Camp to Level 2.
The unit unlocked by the Level 2 Imperial Armor Camp was exactly the long-range unit the territory currently lacked the most—Great Qin Armored Crossbowmen!
This was the part that excited Su Yang the most; the unlocking of the Crossbowman directly made up for the team's biggest current flaw.
This was a huge improvement for both base defense and field combat.
It was worthy of a Main Base upgrade; it could bring so many new improvements at once!
Su Yang suppressed the excitement in his heart and carefully analyzed the current situation.
There were too many options that could be chosen for upgrading, and resources were limited in the short term.
Therefore, he had to make choices based on the current situation.
First was the external environment.
There were two Xenomorphs nests that needed to be resolved today, and further away, there was a Xenomorphs pasture and a ruin.
The two nests had to wait for the copper mine from England to arrive, and for the Imperial Armor to be repaired before setting out to conquer them.
Because they had already launched a large-scale attack on the territory last night, today's resistance shouldn't be too strong.
Therefore, Su Yang would choose to split his forces into two paths and take down both nests together.
In addition, the Xenomorphs pasture required at least 10 Level 2 Armored Elite Soldiers, so there was no rush now.
Su Yang didn't plan to touch the ruins in the near future either.
Then there was the copper mine; basically, all improvements required copper resources.
England could only solve the urgent need, and he would definitely have to invest a lot of energy to search for copper mines next.
In this regard, Su Yang discovered a new technology related to it—Metal Detector.
This would be the technology Su Yang would prioritize unlocking.
Finally, there was base defense.
The stone resources would meet the standard in the afternoon, and he could soon start building walls.
As for wall upgrades and defensive towers, there was no rush for now.
With the combat power of the Great Qin Elite Soldiers, the Elementary walls should be enough for a while.
After analyzing it logically, Su Yang opened the lord panel.
He checked the various attributes after the territory upgrade...
