“Grief will always pass. Now that our village has been upgraded to an advanced settlement, conditions will improve steadily, and everyone’s life will get better and better!”
“Today, we shall reward those who distinguished themselves in the recent Defense of the Homeland! Rewards and punishments ensure order and inspire morale!”
“Now, I will announce the meritorious warriors: first and foremost, the one who earned the greatest honor is our village’s military officer, Lord Feng Zhongfeng Fengtian!”
“He trained the troops with discipline, commanded with precision, and valiantly fought the beast known as the Howling Moon Silver Wolf King. Ultimately, he slew the beast, securing our fate with a single decisive strike. He is our village’s great hero! Our territory hereby grants him a reward of 100,000 coins, a cask of Hundred Flower Wine, and a suit of Invincible Battle Armor!” Lin Mu announced with heartfelt excitement.
“Wow, such generous rewards! 100,000 coins is a fortune, and a cask of Hundred Flower Wine—the signature brew from the Hundred Flower Pavilion—is a rare delicacy indeed!”
“Yes, I heard that the lord spent a hefty sum at the market to acquire this precious wine. It’s truly a treasure!”
“Indeed, I’ve heard that this wine tastes as if a hundred blossoms are blooming in your mouth, incredibly fragrant, like savoring a bouquet of flowers. It even bestows special attributes!”
“Yes, yes, I so want to taste the Hundred Flower Wine!”
“Haha, once everyone contributes to the territory’s glory, I’m sure the lord won’t be stingy. Perhaps he’ll even reward you with something better than Hundred Flower Wine!”
“Mm-hmm, from now on, I will charge into battle bravely and achieve great feats!”
“……”
“Too bad we’re in production roles and can’t fight on the front lines. I wonder how we can earn merit?”
“You’re clueless! Even production roles have their chance to earn merits. I heard the Changyin Village officials have issued a list of merit tasks specifically for producers. If we work diligently and manufacture excellent products for the territory, we can build our legacy too!”
“Really? Haha, then I’ll work harder, focus on developing better products to earn merits. Not only contributing to the territory but also receiving the lord’s rewards—two gains at once, haha!”
“……”
The villagers below buzzed with conversation. Some were sturdy soldiers, dreaming of future glory, while others in production roles steeled their resolve. In this moment, all were united, bound together like a tightly twisted rope—strong and steadfast!
“……”

Lin Mu bestowed rewards upon all who had performed valiantly in the last battle—both money and treasures. These rewards stirred everyone’s spirits and enthusiasm, convincing them to work even harder for the territory.
After the rewards, Lin Mu spoke again: “But we must not grow complacent. The world beyond is still perilous. We must continuously strengthen ourselves to protect our homeland.”
“Our village faces a formidable enemy: the Azure Dragon Stronghold. This fortress commands over 100,000 elite soldiers who relentlessly exploit and plunder the peaceful citizens of Qingfeng Village nearby. If they discover us, they may come to pillage and oppress us too. This is a grave threat we absolutely must prevent!”
“Therefore, upon learning of the Azure Dragon Stronghold, we immediately began rigorous training for our soldiers, preparing for battle. Our warriors are now capable and courageous. Against their 100,000 troops, we are confident in our strength. I hereby declare that our soldiers are ready. Our next strategy is to launch an assault to conquer them, eliminate this threat, and safeguard our home!”
“This will be our territory’s first expedition since its founding. Are the troops confident?” Lin Mu shouted loudly.
“Yes! We will conquer and destroy them, defending our homeland!” the soldiers roared back.
“Excellent, excellent! Haha… with such brave warriors among us, our future is assured!”
“Alright, everything is arranged. Now let us feast and fill our bellies! Once we’ve eaten and drunk well, we will take up our weapons and vanquish those evil forces to defend our home!” Lin Mu concluded, then slowly turned and walked away.
Following Lin Mu’s rousing speech and generous rewards, laughter soon filled the air as everyone savored the sumptuous food.
The territory was peaceful and harmonious.
At Lin Mu’s table sat the highest-ranking leaders of the territory, enjoying a carefully prepared banquet.
Lin Mu examined the dishes and found them to be a beginner-level exquisite feast:

So the feast was made from the Howling Moon Silver Wolf King’s meat. Indeed, the presence of expert-level chefs allows for attribute-enhancing dishes. If prepared by grandmasters or masters, the food would be even more delicious and grant greater bonuses! Still, this was a meticulously crafted delicacy, exceedingly precious. The alluring aroma made Lin Mu eager to begin!
“This feast is exquisitely prepared and beautifully presented, the fragrance pervasive. Our chef has worked hard—let us raise a toast in his honor!” With that, everyone lifted their glasses.
“Our territory’s achievements today are thanks to everyone’s efforts, especially Yuan Jian and Fengtian. Come, let us toast them as well!” Another hearty gulp of rough wine followed.
Then Lin Mu praised each person present, drank heartily, and finally, as lord of the territory, he began to savor the tempting feast.
Thin slices of delicate meat, translucent and fragrant, steamed with heat and greatly whetted the appetite. Lin Mu gently picked a piece with his chopsticks and tasted it. It melted instantly in his mouth, releasing an indescribable fragrance that lingered in his throat, while warmth rose through his belly and spread throughout his body—a sensation utterly unknown in the mundane world. The mythical realm was truly mysterious beyond measure.
“Ding!”
“—System notification: Player Lin Mu, you have consumed the beginner feast ‘Flaming Spirit Wolf King Banquet.’ Spirit cleansing complete. Base Strength +1, Politics +1!”
He had gained one point in both strength and politics—quite a fine boost, a steady accumulation!
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step; neglect leads to ruin.
Small accumulations are the foundation for future greatness.
Seeing Lin Mu start eating, everyone eagerly grasped their chopsticks to sample the exquisite wolf meat.
Upon tasting it, satisfied expressions spread across their faces as fatigue vanished like a breeze. Haha, this wolf meat was truly extraordinary! In no time, chopsticks moved rapidly as everyone feasted heartily. This banquet was indeed captivating.
Glasses clinked and laughter rang out joyfully!
