Surviving in Another Dimension: I Can See Hints - Chapter 3
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wang Jue informed the three farmers that he was going to the forest and told them to guard the territory.
All three farmers looked worried and expressed their willingness to join Wang Jue to protect him.
“Don’t worry. I won’t go deep into the forest. I won’t encounter any danger.”
Then, Wang Jue said to Datou, “You shall be captain of the team. Do not walk out of the yard rashly. I will be back soon.”
As he had been hinted that there was no danger, Wang Jue didn’t plan on bringing the three farmers with him.
Their current mission was to build a guild first.
Besides, even if he really were to encounter danger, bringing three defenseless farmers probably would not be of much use.
After arriving outside the courtyard, Wang Jue oriented himself and set off without stopping.
Time was also an important resource!
Just as he was hinted, he did not encounter any danger on his journey.
The forest was filled with branches and barbs. Fortunately, Wang Jue was wearing leather equipment with a certain level of protection, so he was alright.
About an hour later.
Wang Jue came to a spot in the forest. In front of him were rows of towering trees.
Messy vegetation was scattered all over the ground. Some were even as tall as his waist.
Under one of the trees, whose trunk was two arm span thick, was the tree hole that Wang Jue was looking for!
It was a very concealed hiding place.
If not for the hint, most people would not have discovered it, even if they came here.
“I am the Overlord of the territory at the back. Is there anyone here?”
After Wang Jue spoke, he stood and waited.
After a while, the grass in front of him moved.
A figure emerged.
His hair was very messy, it looked very much like a bird’s nest. He had on a piece of outerwear girdled at the waist with slits on both sides and a pair of straw sandals on his feet. He looked even more pathetic than a beggar!
Perhaps because he had been hiding in the tree hole for a long time, he was still not used to the bright sunlight.
The tanned construction worker narrowed his eyes and carefully sized up Wang Jue.
After getting a clear look, he said excitedly,
“Honorable Overlord, I’m a construction worker. I hid in a tree hole because I got lost and was afraid of being attacked by wild beasts. Thank you for your call. It gave me the courage to walk out.”
[A diligent and reliable construction worker. If you give him food, he will give you the most precious resources.]
Wang Jue knew what to do after seeing the hint.
Instantly, with a thought, a packet of wheat bread fell into his hands.
Upon seeing the food, the construction worker’s eyes lit up. He looked like he wanted to eat but didn’t dare to go forward.
Wang Jue opened the oil paper, reached out, broke off half of the bread, and held it out.
He said, “It looks like you’ve been hungry for more than a day or two. Eat something.”
The construction worker strode forward and said tearfully,
“My lord, you are the most generous lord I have ever seen. You illuminate my life like a bright star in the night sky.”
He took the bread and bit off more than half of it in one bite. He mumbled, “Thank you, my lord. I have nothing to repay you with. I only hope that you can accept my loyalty. I will dedicate my knowledge and abilities to you.”
[You have subdued an advanced construction worker. Tap on details to check the worker’s basic attributes.]
The system notification lit up.
Wang Jue was overjoyed.
He hurriedly tapped on it.
[Name: Valentine]
[Class: Advanced Construction Worker]
[Loyalty: 80%]
[Strength: 1/7]
[Stamina: 1/8]
[Spirit: 2/8]
[Passive attribute: The construction efficiency of the base doubles.]
…
After reading through Valentine’s attributes, Wang Jue knew that he had picked up a treasure.
He was indeed an advanced construction worker.
Without saying much, Wang Jue led Valentine back to his territory.
He then quickly threw himself into construction work.
After half a day of experience, Wang Jue felt a little tired. He only realized then that he had yet to eat.
He opened the bread and swallowed it hastily.
There was no taste, it was like chewing on wax.
Gulp gulp…
He took a large gulp of water.
He still had about 600ml left.
During this time, Wang Jue noticed that Datou and the other farmer all appeared to be extremely hungry. It struck him that they were also actual existences in this current world.
People needed to eat.
As their Overlord, it was also one of his responsibilities to ensure that they had adequate food and clothing.
He immediately took out his 400g bread and 300ml of water for the four people.
The group was moved to tears again.
Wang Jue saw that Valentine’s loyalty had increased to 85%.
Around four in the afternoon.
System notification: Guild construction completed!
It is finally done!
Wang Jue recited the words on the interface.
[Guild construction completed. Please name the Guild]
Wang Jue pondered for a moment and said softly,
“Guild name: Earthly Paradise!”
Then, the image changed.
[Guild: Earthly Paradise]
[Level: Elementary]
[Function: A recruitment notice can be issued once a week, limited to five people.]
[Conditions: Each recruitment will cost 20 Silver Coins]
At the same time, small golden characters appeared below.
[An Elementary Guild can recruit 5 ordinary soldiers. Choose the category you want to recruit so that you can make maximum use of it.]
Wang Jue only noticed then that there was a panel on the lower right side of the interface.
[Gold Coins: 0]
[Silver Coins: 26]
“Is this what I have now? What a pitiful amount!”
After pondering for a moment, Wang Jue began to seriously consider his subsequent development.
“I was lucky today. I found a construction worker based on a hint, but I might not be so lucky in the future.
“If I want to obtain more resources, I will have to work outside. So, I have to have the ability to protect myself first!”
He realized that the territory was most lacking in armed forces.
He immediately took note of this and read the detailed interpretation of the recruitment notice.
Wang Jue willed.
“Issue the recruitment order and gather five soldiers.”
[Soldier Gathering Order released. Cost: 20 Silver Coins]
A yellow notice materialized out of thin air and flew toward the center of the guild.
It suddenly dispersed in the middle of the guild, turning into powder and falling to the ground.
Then, a six-pointed star lit up.
A spatial distortion began to appear from within and gradually grew in size, turning into a huge beam of light.
After the light took form, a stream of white smoke surged up ceaselessly before gradually dissipating.
“Tsk tsk tsk, this special effect. Indeed, the longer you live, the more things you will see!”
Wang Jue praised.
The white smoke completely dissipated.
Five figures that looked like soldiers appeared before Wang Jue’s eyes. All of them stood tall and straight.
The leader of the five soldiers walked to Wang Jue.
He knelt down on one knee!
“Guard Carl reporting to you!”
“Great Overlord, may you prosper!”
Wang Jue nodded unnaturally.
He surveyed the five soldiers.
They were dressed in light armor and carried sharp iron swords at their waists. They looked very well-trained.
Indeed, spending money makes things more reliable!
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something.
Wang Jue looked toward the forest again.
[It’s still early, and the wild beasts are less active. You can lead the soldiers to explore the forest. Perhaps there will be some unexpected gains.]
This time, the hint didn’t indicate any danger. Wang Jue made up his mind.
He decided to take this opportunity to lead the soldiers out in search of new materials.
Before that, he still needed to do one more thing.
That was to build a few more accommodations.
Now that the population had increased, he couldn’t let all of them squeeze into the wooden hunt with him.
“Valentine, Datou, collect the wood and hay around the area and build a straw shed for rest. Make sure it’s done before sunset.”
The two nodded in agreement.
After handling the task, Wang Jue set off with the five soldiers..
