5: Japan is making trouble, Mo Yan’s revenge list!

"This is just the beginning," he muttered, a blazing Battle Intent burning in his eyes.

To gain a foothold in this cruel world, he must become stronger!

Opening the building list, Mo Yan ordered, "Build 5 simple wooden cabins."

Simple wooden cabins (5 total): wood x 150, Ore x 100.

Provides basic shelter, can recruit 5 villagers. Prosperity + 10

As the command was given, a portion of the resources in the territory's Warehouse instantly disappeared.

On the open ground around the Ice Crystal Cabin, five soft white lights lit up one after another.

As the light dissipated, five wooden cabins were erected on the ice plain. Their simple design added Life Qi to this silent land.

The territory's Prosperity also increased to 29 points.

At the same time, he did not hesitate to consume wood and Ore to rearrange the four damaged wooden spike traps that had been triggered.

He also built six more traps, further expanding the defensive range.

After doing this, Mo Yan tried to focus his attention on the Ice Crystal Cabin, attempting to find an upgrade option.

Tip: Building upgrade function requires territory Rank to reach Rank 2 to unlock.

As expected, there were restrictions.

He then turned his gaze to the Barracks.

Tip: Building upgrade function requires territory Rank to reach Rank 2 to unlock.

It seemed that he needed to raise the territory's Rank to upgrade other buildings.

He immediately opened the territory interface to check the upgrade conditions.

Territory Upgrade Lv1 -> Lv2 Requirement: Prosperity reaches 50.

Prosperity is currently only 29, still 21 points short.

"It seems I can't upgrade it yet."

Mo Yan frowned, but he wasn't too disappointed.

You eat one bite at a time, and you walk one step at a time.

"However, I can't just sit idle either." He stroked his chin, recalling the information about the Icefield Wolf corpses he had seen earlier with his Value Insight talent.

"Maybe I can find something from these wolf corpses."

Suddenly feeling an empty stomach, he estimated that the previous battle had consumed a lot of physical strength.

Mo Yan then took out a piece of ordinary jerky from his talent space and began to chew on it.

The jerky was tough and had a faint salty taste. It wasn't delicious, but it could replenish his physical strength.

Just as he took his first bite of jerky, a System prompt sounded.

Tip: Eating ordinary jerky increases physical strength by 5% for 20 minutes.

Tip: Detected residents and Soldiers in the territory (11 people in total), daily food consumption has been activated.

Today's required food: 110, automatically deducted from inventory.

Mo Yan paused his actions: "Jerky can even add a BUFF, not bad. I can arrange for the Soldiers to have some before future battles, I just wonder if the taste can be better."

Having solved the problem of food and clothing, Mo Yan turned his attention to the world channel.

The channel was still incredibly noisy, with various messages frantically scrolling.

"Help! I'm trapped in the Poison Mist Forest, surrounded by venomous insects, and I can't even find clean water!"

"Is there any big shot who can provide some wood? There isn't even a single tree near my starting resource point, only Ore!"

"Wuwuwu, my wooden cabin was destroyed by a few wild boars, what should I do?"

"Who can tell me how to trade? I have extra Ore here and want to exchange it for some food, I'm starving to death!"

"The one upstairs, don't even think about it, there's no trading System at all! This broken Lord World!"

"No trading System? Then how do we communicate? Do we fight individually?"

Mo Yan quickly browsed these messages, his eyes calm.

Most Lords were clearly still struggling, mostly complaining about the harsh environment and scarce resources.

However, the information about the lack of a trading System caught his attention.

This was indeed a big problem, clearly limiting cooperation and development between Lords.

What was the purpose of this Lord World?

Just then, several messages with different languages and nationality tags popped into his view:

Eagle Country - George: I have awakened an S-Rank talent. Join my territory and I guarantee you'll return to Blue Star alive.

Dragon Country - Wind Rises Clouds Soar: Just defended against the first wave, almost wiped out. Brothers, hold on!

Yamamoto Kameda of Wa Country: @Eagle Country - George, ignore those Dragon Country people who only whine, they are naturally weak.

Our Great Wa Empire advocates martial prowess, why don't we join forces?

Let's take this opportunity to eliminate these Dragon Country good-for-nothings first, and then split the resources equally, how about it?

Dragon Country - Dragon Fighting in the Wild: Yamamoto Kameda, you little scum who's having a good life!

Watch your mouth! If you dare, give me your coordinates, I'll bring people to send you to your grave!

Yamamoto Kameda of Wa Country: Heh heh, the sick man of East Asia is going crazy.

Just you wait, when my troops are formed, the first ones I'll target are your Dragon Country Lords!

Let you know who the true master of Asia is!

Looking at the extremely arrogant remarks of the Wa Country Lord Yamamoto Kameda, especially the glaring words "sick man of East Asia" and "Dragon Country good-for-nothings."

Mo Yan's eyes instantly turned cold.

A surge of anger uncontrollably rose from the bottom of his heart.

"Little devil, you're courting death!" He cursed inwardly, his originally calm heart instantly stirring up monstrous waves.

Although he chose to develop discreetly and hide in the shadows.

This by no means implied that he had no bottom line or sense of national honor.

And it was even less possible for him to tolerate such in-your-face humiliation and provocation!

"Yamamoto Kameda..."

Mo Yan repeated the name softly, his knuckles cracking as he clenched his fists tightly.

He did not impulsively retort on the world channel; that would only expose his existence and drag him into a meaningless war of words.

Slowly exhaling a cold white mist, he forcibly suppressed the surging anger and closed the noisy world channel.

He switched to the regional channel to check for any important information.

Compared to the chaotic world channel, the information on the Ice Plain regional channel was relatively more concentrated.

There were also many Lords complaining and asking for help here, but some useful information could also be seen.

"Brothers, I heard there's a place called Sky Island, which is a neutral trading zone, but it seems you have to find a way to get there yourself, and the road is very dangerous."

"Sky Island? Really or fake? Where is it?"

"I don't know, I also heard it from others, the specific situation is unclear."

Sky Island...

Mo Yan silently noted down this name.

Although the information was vague, it provided a possibility for solving the trading problem.

He scanned several group messages that were recruiting members, and finally locked onto a relatively active group.

Xue Lang Fort.

The group's introduction was simple: "Ice plain survival, information sharing, voluntary mutual assistance, no internal strife, only accepts Dragon Country people."

Mo Yan didn't hesitate and chose to apply to join.

A few seconds later, a System message popped up.

Tip: You have successfully joined the regional group Xue Lang Fort.

The group administrator has set up automatic approval for applications. Welcome to join! Please abide by the group rules and communicate friendly.

A new chat interface popped up, with more than a dozen people already exchanging information inside.

(Regarding the trading platform issue, I'll add some more here. Thank you all for your patience in reading this far.

1. The lack of a trading platform is preparation for returning to Blue Star.

2. There is a mall where Lords can purchase goods.

3. The areas where territories are located are sometimes close, sometimes far from other territories, and some are even randomly placed next to each other, allowing them to trade face-to-face.)
