Lord of the Myriad Worlds

Chapter 159: Clearance Event Triggered (Bonus: for Alliance Chief lanruoruo)

The six horse-drawn carriages from Victor Town successively departed into the distance. The unloaded wheat was piled up on the tarpaulin.

A small wooden cabin was urgently being cleared out, to be used for temporarily accommodating this wheat.

"Clyde, Charles, Pang Wu, you three lead thirty farmers, pushing four Wooden Wheelbarrows, transporting five hundred catties of wheat, a portion of dried meat, and three catties of Table Salt, and immediately head to Cabin Station No. 1 fifty li away. For the next three days, you need to construct a second wooden cabin there. At the same time, set about exploring a road heading toward the Camp. The standard for the road is to allow normal passage for horse-drawn carriages."

"The specific exploration route will take the route I once marked out as the baseline; adjustments can be made."

"At the same time, Clyde, you need to return to the Camp overnight, and bring a portion of the road-opening tools and wooden cabin construction tools. Camp No. 1 needs to be further expanded; in the future, that place will become our forward outpost and post station."

"Understood, My Lord!"

"Liu Zhongyuan, Collas, you two remain at Cabin Station No. 2, responsible for handling and butchering all the wild wolf corpses. You are also permitted to use ten catties of Table Salt to salt and cure the wolf meat."

"Understood, My Lord!"

After Li Wei returned to the wooden cabin camp, he very quickly issued new orders. Today was already the eleventh day of this month. The Table Salt and grain tasks were already no problem, but opening up this trade route remained an extremely arduous task.

Although the specific distance needing to be explored was only thirty li.After finishing issuing orders, Li Wei could not bother to rest. Taking the remaining twenty farmers, starting from Cabin Station No. 2, they repaired the road towards the direction of Cabin Station No. 1.

This stretch of road totaled fifty li. Fundamentally, it all passed through a gentle valley. Many places didn't need repair and were naturally suitable for driving. But there were also places where only wheelbarrows could travel.

Another additional reason was that no cart ruts had been formed, making it easy to get lost.

This required making signboards on both sides of the road. In some places, they also needed to move away the large stones in the middle of the road.

Or piling up some stone walls on the roadside, and making warnings in some places where mountain floods might seasonally erupt.

Overall speaking, the difficulty was not great.

Li Wei leading 20 farmers working for a morning could advance five li of ground. Coming back at noon to eat, they could still nap for half an hour, and then continue advancing five li in the afternoon.

Ten li of ground a day; it could be done in roughly six days.

Of course, in reality, when the third day arrived, these farmers could go to Cabin Station No. 1 to rest.

And here at Cabin Station No. 2, Collas and Liu Zhongyuan only used one day's time to complete the butchering. That night, the two received orders and set off.

At four o'clock the next morning, they returned leading two farmers and pushing four wheelbarrows.

Next, Liu Zhongyuan stayed to cook. Collas took four farmers to load the wheelbarrows with wheat and push them back.

Like ants moving house, it was enough to get it done.

Just like this, when it reached the third day, after another small wooden cabin was finished being constructed beside Cabin Station No. 1, Li Wei also led the 20 farmers to arrive at Camp No. 1 that evening.

Only leaving Liu Zhongyuan to guard Camp No. 2.

During this period, Pang Wu, whose attributes were the worst, was responsible for transporting the wheat. Every day he led four farmers pushing Wooden Wheelbarrows while he was responsible for escort. Making one round trip a day, it was always ensured they set out from Camp No. 2 in the early morning, and set out from Camp No. 1 in the afternoon, allowing them to stay the night in Camp No. 2.

Avoiding rainy weather as much as possible.

When the grain, dried meat, and other materials in Camp No. 2 were all transported away, Liu Zhongyuan would also withdraw back.

Overall speaking, it was very smooth.

As for over here at Camp No. 1, after Clyde returned to the family Camp, he pushed a wheelbarrow over and also brought quite a few tools: shovels, steel drills, hammers, pickaxes, and so on.

These tools were somewhat more effective than the tools in the hands of the farmers.

However, what was even more effective was still Li Wei's group.

Li Wei himself aside, switching to the Bear Hunter Title, his Strength was still only 17 points, at most equivalent to three or four farmers. Mm, these farmers were chronically malnourished; their average Strength was only about 7 or 8 points, falling far short of the standard of a healthy ordinary person.

Someone like Clyde, his Strength should be around 25 points. Stones over two or three hundred catties, picking them up and walking like the wind caused no pressure at all.

Collas was not much worse either: 26 points of Strength, 240 points of Stamina. Just him and Clyde two, like humanoid road-opening machines, from sunrise to sunset, the two of them alone could equal ten farmers.

Arrogant and domineering, no explanation needed.

Charles was somewhat inferior, but also had 21 points of Strength and 200 points of Stamina.

When the materials of Camp No. 2 finished being transported and Liu Zhongyuan also joined in—good heavens, they directly became three humanoid road-opening machines.

No one dared to slack off, because Li Wei was leading by example.

He didn't go urge on those farmers. The potential of those fifty farmers was only that great; discussing individual labor fundamentally made them trash. It entirely relied on quantity.

If they could persist onwards, persisting until the end of the month would be victory.

After all, fifty farmers was equivalent to five Clydes, five Collases.

The true breakthrough point, those worthy of excavating potential, were these six of them.

Li Wei now didn't even care about health problems. He had to open up this trade route by the end of the month. Although this wasn't considered a life-or-death matter, if he wanted to keep the position of Head of Household, he had to put his life on the line.

Although Li Wei had occasionally flashed the thought in his heart "at worst I'll just settle and lie flat," when things truly came to a head, when he truly captured an opportunity that could turn the tables and crush the high-level players, he was also truly daring to risk everything.

Exactly right!

Clearly having no chance, having no odds of winning, yet still going to risk everything on a single throw—that is the true color of a gambling dog.

But having an opportunity, having odds of winning, yet not risking everything on a single throw—that's called being a stupid-c*nt!

Up to now everything was considered open cards. Clyde, Liu Zhongyuan, Collas and they also all clearly recognized it, regardless of whether their brains worked well or not.

They all understood that now crazily keeping up with Li Wei's footsteps was already not just as simple as preventing an NG. This was the merit of supporting the right leader; this was taking a stance; this was placing a bet.

As long as Li Wei could win, they would all eat very well next month.

Mm, especially the Mercenaries. This month if they don't fight desperately, don't perform, next month they can wholly be swapped out for another batch again!

Furthermore, to be perfectly honest, following Little Boss George this month, isn't what they earned sweet?

With Liu Zhongyuan's Chef Destiny Grid, Collas's Butcher Destiny Grid, now Pang Wu and Charles were permitted to go out hunting and fishing for two hours every day, to improve the meals.

And with the current progress of opening the road, before the end of the month, as long as there wasn't continuous torrential rain, it could be completed no matter what.

A road where horse-drawn carriages could travel, the requirements truly weren't high.

However, just on the evening of the twenty-first day of this month, Li Wei was currently leading the fifty farmers to return. Clyde, Collas, and the others were preparing to build another small wooden cabin at the fifteenth-li position. This could save the farmers' time and Stamina to a large degree, and was also beneficial for starting work at multiple points, advancing neck and neck in sections, and minimizing the time spent walking back and forth to the utmost extent.

Suddenly, several lines of somewhat special purple-gold information dashed past the eyes of the six of them.

[Family member Ron has forged another 200 One-Star Quality armor scales this month, scraping together enough for 800 One-Star armor scales. Subsequently, he used these armor scales together with other materials to forge a Four-Star Quality Royal Heavy Scale Armor. This is the top-tier equipment permitted to be forged in the current task world. Thus it has triggered a Clearance Event. The number of Clearance Events in the current task plot is 1/3.]

[Friendly reminder: A Clearance Event is a signature event in a rookie mission, possessing irreplicability. Once the number of Clearance Events reaches three, it will trigger a mandatory Task Settlement. Regardless of whether it's new or veteran players, all will be unconditionally settled.]

[Friendly reminder: A Clearance Event is not mandatory to occur; it is merely a special honor similar to a world achievement.]

[Friendly reminder: If no Clearance Event is triggered during the entire task plot period, the task plot will automatically perform Task Settlement after running for three years. If not a single ending-boss kill is completed during the period, the evaluation will be the lowest.]

[The overall rewards for a Clearance Event are — 15% extra Clearance Evaluation, 600 points of Family Contribution.]

[Because the triggering of this Clearance Event was triggered under the leadership of the Head of Household, George, and George explicitly participated in and guided the occurrence of this matter, his leadership uncovers recognition. He will separately obtain 5% extra Clearance Evaluation, as well as 150 points of Family Contribution.]

[Because the triggering of this Clearance Event has an important connection with the One-Star Smelting Furnace forged by family member Clyde, he will obtain 50 points of Family Contribution.]

[Because the triggering of this Clearance Event has a certain connection with the discovery of the Three-Star Iron Ore, the previous version's family member Penny will be presented with 20 points of Family Contribution.]

[Family member Ron obtains 10% extra Clearance Evaluation, 380 points of Family Contribution. He will simultaneously obtain the Title 'Armor Forging Master'.]

——

Good heavens!

There's also this kind of hidden setting?

What kind of heaven-defying attributes must a Royal Heavy Scale Armor have to be able to trigger this ah! At this moment Li Wei wished he could immediately return to take a look.

Sure enough, as long as one is slightly careless and fails to suppress this bunch of high-level players, they immediately defy heaven to show you.

"For the remaining less than ten days of time, I'll have to see what heaven-defying maneuvers Hathaway has. However, I won't necessarily lose!"

For a time, Li Wei's heroic spirit was boundless instead. Because he had truly accomplished it; if a Four-Star Scale Armor with traits could trigger a Clearance Event, he didn't believe that him opening up a trade route wouldn't trigger it.

Inevitably.

Because logically, the importance of this trade route even surpassed the Four-Star Scale Armor.

So then, up to this point this month, he had already cumulatively harvested one Title, cumulatively harvested 10 Gold Coins, and cumulatively harvested 400 points of Contribution. Not to mention Hunting Experience, above 4000+. Scouting Experience upgraded to 200 points. Even opening roads had Construction Experience.

Worth mentioning is that within these 400 points of Contribution, 50 points were provided by Collas. Butchering and tanning the Two-Star Wolf King, butchering and tanning the One-Star Elk, and such and such. He harvested Destiny Grid Experience, and the Contribution obtained all belonged to Li Wei.

And after going home, the wolf skin and deer skins could also be donated again to the family; there would be an additional 50 points of Contribution income.

Besides this, those four Two-Star Mercenaries lent to Leon, the 240 points of Contribution from the basic main quest this month also belonged to Li Wei.

This equated to his total Contribution already being pre-booked at 690 points.

But there was also the Table Salt task. Fifty kilograms of Table Salt, even if opening the road consumed ten kilograms, the remaining forty kilograms—completing the basic portion could obtain 200 points. Of course, this included the shares of Liu Zhongyuan, Collas, Charles, and Pang Wu, the four of them.

However, the remaining twenty-five kilograms—every extra kilogram could obtain 10 points of Contribution and a compensation of one Gold Coin. This was equivalent to 250 points of Contribution. The surplus wheat couldn't be tallied temporarily, but it shouldn't be less than 200 points either.

Thus, merely these alone, Li Wei's total Contribution this month had already reached about 1100+, plus the Contribution of opening up a trade route.

Hehe, if even like this he was instantly killed by that bitch Hathaway, then Li Wei would be willing to immediately admit defeat, settle and be done with it!
