Chapter 444: Vol 13: The Current Situation of The Supreme Village

Maya looked at him without any blame, as he did a great job there. she then said:

"Never mind, now tell me the latest reports of the village status."

"The village has been upgraded successfully to the intermediate stage village. although our king isn't here to confirm the new changes, I can guess some of them already. 

All the buildings here can be upgraded to a higher level, also the number of villagers we gain daily has been doubled. Now, the village has passed the mark of ten thousand, and all of them have double abilities. The basin state is stable, but the demons from outside are trying desperately to conquer here."

Maya thought for a moment before asking:

"This double ability you mentioned is the cultivation and classes?"

"Yes my lady, each villager has chosen one cultivation way, once cultivation technique, one class and one skill. most of our villagers took the lifestyle classes and skills," Rinobak said.

"Lifestyle classes? What are these?" Maya asked with interest.

"Lifestyle classes are like blacksmiths, rune masters, and alchemists. These three classes are considered the commonest classes here in the village," Rinobak explained.

Maya was from a cultivation world, but she had seen the game world as well. Although she didn't know about these types of classes, she felt how special they were, or else Ibro wouldn't let his people learn them like this.

"What's special about each of them?" She asked.

"Blacksmiths can make weapons and different kinds of equipment with different grades based on their level and proficiency. Rune masters can make runes, which are very important weapons of war that can kill a huge number of enemies in one go. 

Alchemists can make different types of potions based on their level and proficiency," Rinobak explained slowly to her. Maya's eyes lit up when she heard about rune master description, so she asked at once:

"Can you show me the effects of these runes?"

"Sure, I have already dispatched a team with a huge amount of runes to the front. You can go there now and witness the effects of these runes," Rinobak suggested.

"No, I can watch them from here."

May then concentrated on the front battle where a small team of villagers had reached there already. She didn't need to wait for long as the situation was dire, so the skeletons there didn't delay in using these runes. 

The devastation caused by these tiny rocks opened Maya's eyes to a new world. she looked excitedly towards Rinobak as she ordered:

"I want you to take special care of those rune masters. Give them all the supplies they need, and store as many runes they produce as possible at the village. 

I have an idea, why won't we collect all the villagers and let them enter my world? The gateway here is guarded by skeletons, and my world is a cultivation based world like here with some time difference, so they can train there for a long time and get stronger."

Rinobak didn't need to think for long before replying:

"I think we don't need this plan, as we need those villagers to upgrade the village. Also the village has a support feature to cultivation speed, so villagers can raise their cultivation bases easily here."

Maya looked strangely towards him as she asked:

"Why do you need villagers here? The village has already been upgraded."

"We need them to gather resources, build more buildings and defenses, expand the territory of my king and my lady, and upgrade the village to higher stages. This stage of the village is nothing compared to the huge cities we have witnessed back in that game world. We need to raise our village to such heights," Rinobak explained patiently.

"What are the needed resources for the village then?" Maya asked with interest. 

Although she built a mighty empire before, she was never interested in building cities until she visited that game world and saw the huge mighty intimidating cities there. If her empire had such strong cities, then her empire wouldn't have been destroyed.

"There are some essential ones like woods, food, and stones, but I believe we will need more resources like ores as our village gets upgraded."

"Hmmm, I can send some of my own cultivators to roam the world here and locate all the resources for you, what do you think of that?" Maya suggested after giving some thoughts to the matter.

"Really? That would be great, but can they locate the resources buried deep in the ground?" Rinobak said excitedly.

"Yes, my cultivators have something called divine sense, which they can use to scan a certain area and notice the slightest changes in it. any ore mine has some traces on the surface of the ground, so they will scout the world here and locate all the resources," Maya explained.

"That would be great, but they must be aware, we aren't alone in this world," Rinobak said.

I know, we have herds of demons everywhere," Maya said without interest, as she never put these demons in her eyes.

"No, that's not what I meant my lady, I mean there are other human strongholds here in this world," Rinobak hurried to say.

Maya looked seriously towards him as she asked:

"Are they allies or enemies? Are they players or cultivators?"

"They are cultivators, my lady, but they are neutral to us. I recall my king once mentioned his meeting with a group of them before, although they helped him, he felt the powers behind them weren't that nice," Rinobak said.

Maya felt some challenges by the presence of this variable. It would be nice if they decided to ally themselves with her, but she couldn't risk having a new enemy in addition to the demons here. she looked towards Rinobak as she asked:

"Do they have villages like us?"

"No, I believe my king has established the first village ever in this universe," Rinobak said.

"I thought so" Maya muttered to herself. She guessed the answer already, as she belonged to the classic cultivation world. confirming her guess didn't make her more relieved, instead, it made her worried. 

The presence of something new that couldn't be understood or copied was considered a threat in the cultivation world. That made her feel some danger coming from those cultivators, so she asked:

"Tell me all you know about these cultivators."

"I'm sorry my lady, I know no more about them. the only contact we had with them was done by my king before establishing the village here," Rinobak said with shame as he couldn't answer Maya's question. 

Maya didn't feel much surprise of that, as the whole world was full of demons, and the village didn't have the necessary power to investigate the whole world before, but now she could do that.

"Go back then and handle the matters of the village. leave the demons and cultivators outside to me," She ordered as she started to relay more orders to her cultivators up front. 

She ordered them to move and spread out searching for two things, resources and other cultivators. She then sat inside the lord mansion as she was trying to find more ways to strengthen the village and secure its territory.
