Kant’s mind instantly rose to the top of the sky.
God’s view expanded.
The entire Oasis Lookout suddenly appeared in a bird’s-eye view.
In the distance, the lush date palm jungle, the wheat fields with sprouting seedlings, and the sparkling lake water brought the vitality of nature to the surrounding sandy dune.
Peasants were busy in the fields, holding farm tools to clean up the ridges they were responsible for.
The lake water in the canal was trickling.
The well-built canal could connect the date palm jungle with the wheat fields, and the flax fields, and pour water into the lake through the sewer at any time. The canal prevented the date palm jungle, which was ready to bloom and bear fruit, and the sprouting wheat fields to have any possibility of drying up from the astonishing amount of evaporation during the day.
The Swadians knew more about agriculture than any other country’s peasant and farmers, even the chickens as well.
Those free-range and desert-adapted grouses were not cooped up in their coops, instead they spread their wings and dived deep into date palm jungle or chee grass beach in search of flesh worms.
The grouses would not venture too deep into the desert. It was like there was a bottom line that they would not easily set foot in.
Every time the peasant women carried flax sacks and called out loudly, these sand grouse would flutter their wings and quickly rush over, enjoying the grains that were scattered on the sandy ground. This was their luxury food.
If the villagers in the Kingdom of Swadia saw them directly feed the sand grouse with grains, they would definitely wail in grief.
The chaotic continent of Caradia didn’t even have enough to eat after all.
[ Ding… system prompt ]
[“Drondheim” has completed its upgrade. Current level: Castle ]
The dialog box that popped up from the system brought Kant back to his senses.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64ce79d606107d003c23ea27", id: "pf-5140-1"})He lowered his head and looked down.
The originally tower-shaped council hall had been completely transformed into a tall building made of large stone strips. It occupied an area of nearly 1,000 square meters. The buildings on both sides were pushed out, and the width of the street was less than five meters.
This was the real main body of the castle, completely different from the previous towers.
The height of the six-story building was close to 15 meters.
In addition, there were additional arrow towers at the four corners of the castle-level council hall.
Even the outer walls were tightly built with a seven-meter-high city wall and a concave-shaped arrow-blocking wall that was one meter higher.
There were even semi-circular towers extending on both sides of the main gate of the council hall. On top of the tower, there was a thick and heavy gatehouse, which just opened up a gap of half a meter. On the platform next to it, there were a large number of stones the size of a human head. It was estimated that if an enemy attacked the front gate, these stones would be able to smash down fiercely and slow down the enemy’s attack.
The main body of the council hall had an extremely strict system, which was as well-defended as the main bodies of the castles in the game.
This building itself was the key to the castle!
It could be said that if the entire outer and inner parts of the castle had been lost, as long as this council hall was still intact and had resisted the enemy’s attack, then there was still a chance to recover the lost land!
Because the very purpose of the castle was this towering building!
But why would Kant let his ‘Drondheim’ fall?
It was absolutely impossible.
He swept his gaze across the council hall that had already changed. His gaze swept past the surrounding buildings and lined them up densely. It was already unable to accommodate any more new buildings.
But with a thought, the system actually popped up a dialog box on his retina.
[ Ding… system prompt ]
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})[ Detected that you have entered “Castle-level”, the rules are beginning to change. ]
[ Detected two new rules at the same time, beginning to load the system… ]
[1. Supernatural power rule loading… ]
[2. High level troop class rules loading… ]
[ New rules loading completed, the system has successfully fused the new rules. Remark: Due to lack of necessary information, the system’s rules are lacking. Please obtain more supernatural power for the system to analyze the rules of this world. ]
This was a notification from the system.
After a rough scan, Kant could not help but nod to himself.
This was the new rules he obtained after killing those two women. It was also the reason why he chose to kill those two women without leaving anyone alive.
Supernatural powers.
High level troop class.
These were all terms in fantasy fictions. Kant naturally understood it.
And he also understood that when these two rules were loaded, it had already surpassed the level of the original version’s history. The game had reached the level of the legendary fantasy world!
The real fantasy world.
Just like the real world Kant was currently in..
There were magic, foreign races, and divine artifacts!
This was the confidence of Kant for engaging in battles. There were troop classes that were even stronger than the original level 5 troop class. Those abject ancient survivors who had already been squeezed by the age of chaos and had lost most of their strength, what qualifications did they have to compare with him, after he gained such great strength?
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})The absolute power was to have core combat strength!
Kant would never give up.
On his vision, a new dialog box continued to pop up.
[ Ding… system prompt ]
[ You have entered “Castle Class”. Reputation and honor system unlocked. ]
[ You have entered “Castle Class”. Recruitment and employment system unlocked. ]
Kant scanned through the new dialog box.
The recruitment and hiring system was very simple in the literal sense. It allowed him to recruit higher-level troop class. He could also hire the original version of mercenaries in the tavern, for example, mercenary horsemen, mercenary crossbowmen, trade caravan guards, porter, profession warriors, and so on, these were the various troop class that had appeared in the past.
Although most of them were troop class with inferior equipment, their advantage was that they could respawn in the tavern every week. Occasionally, there would be a level 5 top-tier troop class appeared, which could improve the quantity and quality of his troop classes in a short period of time!
Kant frowned slightly as he looked at the reputation and honor system.
He was quite familiar with these two systems.
Because in the early stages, when he fought the Jackalan tribe head-on, it had already been activated after he obtained victory. Now that it was still unlocked, he was indeed a little puzzled.
If it was already unlocked, could it be unlocked again?
The system seemed to sense his doubt.
The system dialog box popped up.
[ Ding… system prompt ]
[ Because the initial reputation and honor system were unlocked as a reward for the mission, there are some functions that have not been unlocked. New rules are in place, all functions have been unlocked, please continue to use. ]
[ Remark: Consume 10 reputation points to speed up the construction time by one day, consume 100 reputation points to attract a small group of refugees. ]
[ Remark: Consume reputation points to draw high-level items and high-level troop class, consume 10/100 reputation points to level up the estate. ]
The system’s explanation was clear.
Kant nodded. In his heart, he understood that the new reputation and honor system had also changed.
Or it could be called the function unlock.
Now, using 10 reputation points could speed up the construction by one day, which was 10 times less than the original 100 reputation points. Moreover, it could attract a small group of refugees at the price of 100 reputation points, which was a new function.
It was very suitable for the rapid development of “Drondheim” Castle and “Aaron” Village.
Especially “Aaron” Village.
With these two new functions, the construction of the village could be completed in a short period of time, and a large number of people could appear in the village. It would perfect the employment needs of each post, and a large number of buildings could be built in a short period of time, this would allow the entire village to enter the level up stage.
Because of the honor function of the system, it allowed the automatic level up.
Level up the village to a military-type fortress or a civilian-type town by consuming 10 honor points.
Level up the fortress or town to a castle or a city by consuming 100 honor points.
As for the higher level up, the system did not provide it.
Perhaps it had already reached its peak.
After all, in the original version, castles and cities already represented the highest-level strongholds. As for the other large-scale castles or cities in the MOD, such as the capital of the five kingdoms and the Nords Castle in “Prohesy of Pendor”, they did not appear. As for the epic-level cities and castles in the “Custom Commander”, they did not appear at all.
Even if these castles and cities were available, the cost of honor points required would be astronomical.
Leveling up to a castle required 100 honor points.
If leveled up to ‘Drondheim of the Ancient Council’, it would require tens of thousands of honor points. It would tire Kant to death while he was doing endless side quest. It was estimated that he would never be able to gather enough honor points in his lifetime.
However, there was no need to think too much right now.
Kant muttered to himself.
The current castle level up had been completed.
Next, it was time to start the construction of the castle.
After all, after upgrading the castle, these originally fortress-level buildings had lost their former effects. They were all replaced by castle-level buildings, just like how fortress-level buildings replaced village-level buildings.
“Open the data interface.”
A dialog box popped up in Kant’s mind communication system.

[ Comment: In this barren desert oasis, the ‘Drondheim’ castle stands tall. It seems to be in good condition. The clear and abundant spring water flowed into the lake, connecting the canals to irrigate hundreds of acres of land. Although the city walls were short, they had been strengthened by the attic. However, the distribution of arrow towers and needed to be increased, and it did not reflect the castle’s excellent defense. However, there were many elite soldiers stationed there, which made up for the lack of city defense construction. In the end, this was a simple yet vibrant small castle, and it had a great future. However, it was worth noting that there were very few women in the fortress
