Chapter 155: Chapter 092: Is her Hope Village So "Popular"?_3

He had a premonition that, upon his next visit, Hope Village would have undergone yet another earth-shattering change.

"Alright," Yun Juncai nodded.

Having resolved a matter weighing on his mind, Bei Wenkang gazed towards the bustling Commercial Street, his craving instantly triggered, and continued, "That’s all for today then. I’m going to grab something to eat."

With that, the two parted ways.

Bei Wenkang made a beeline for the Commercial Street, planning to treat his stomach well.

No sooner had he left than Yun Juncai prepared to go look for his own kid.

But before he began his search, he received a system message.

[Congratulations, Host, for significantly increasing the tax revenue for Hope Village, rewarded with 100 points of Contribution.]

Contribution?

Yun Juncai looked at the message and felt it was an unexpected fortune.

At that moment, not only he, but also the others in the territory who had sold goods to Bei Wenkang started receiving various amounts of Contribution for having entertained residents from other territories.

With each receipt of Contribution points, everyone’s spirits skyrocketed.

Now they could continue stockpiling their goods in peace!

Meanwhile, Zhou Bai also saw the detailed account of the system’s Contribution rewards.

That morning, upon hearing the news of the Lord from Yuxi Village arriving, she paid some attention to it but didn’t really take it seriously considering their numbers. After occasionally receiving notifications of tax revenue coming in and seeing the continuously rising balance on the Lord’s panel, she was completely reassured and spent her time outside hunting Demon Beasts.

Now, this matter of the system’s reward of Contribution also clarified something for her as the Lord.

The Doomsday Game system indeed seemed to favor them engaging in trade with other territories and might even hope for them to integrate into the Stan Continent sooner.

Given this, after this round of Territory War, she could consider forming a merchant team to visit other territories. Apart from the ones she had visited before, she could also explore around a bit more, including Bengala Town mentioned by Bayer as not far from Hope Village.

These past days, the organizational structure and the regulations within her territory had been running smoothly, and with the Crossbow Carriage as a powerful weapon at her disposal, even if she faced the stronger Professional teams from Bengala Town, there was nothing to fear.

Thinking this over brought another new question to Zhou Bai’s mind.

Since the territory was prepared.

Would they take the offensive or be on the defensive for this Territory War?

Going on the offensive could indeed put Overlord Village, their previous opponent, in their grasp, but what meaning would internal conflict hold? Surely by now, many native territories had their eyes on them!

Zhou Bai’s conviction gradually firmed up.

Better to defend!

Even if faced with a native territory, she believed her territory had the strength to fight. The most important thing was that by defending, they would be able to gauge the strength of the native territories, set a mental benchmark, and adapt more quickly to the rhythm of this world.

And just as Zhou Bai had anticipated, indeed numerous native territories had already set their sights on her, lying in wait for Hope Village’s period of immunity to end.

So the next day, at the crack of dawn.

Zhou Bai received the notification.

[Dear Host, the immunity period for your territory, Hope Village, has ended. Please prepare promptly for the second Territory War.]

[...]

[Dear Host, Castro Village has initiated a Territory War against Hope Village.]

[Dear Host, Klibi Village has initiated a Territory War against Hope Village.]

[Dear Host, Stanlo Village has initiated a Territory War against Hope Village.]

[...]

[Dear Host, considering that multiple territories have declared Territory Wars against you, you may choose to face one of these territories, Selection time: 1 hour.]

Zhou Bai stared at this series of messages, completely dumbfounded, then a bitter smile crept onto her lips.

Was her Hope Village really that "popular"?
