Chapter 49: Chapter 49: Character Panel
Looking at their expressions, Lynn’s heart grew heavy.
Just like the villages of Red and Kuisi.
These villagers also left their homes because of bandit attacks.
And this area belongs to Marquis Duca’s territory!
The Ducas Clan, known as the Greatsword and Shield, can actually stand by and do nothing?
Lynn felt that something was amiss!
The situation outside seemed to be becoming complex and chaotic...
Lynn looked back, where ten men and women stood like middle-aged men.
Their eyes were filled with fear of battle and death, even two of them were trembling slightly.
Lynn stood up and addressed them, "My name is Lynn, and I am the Lord of this land..."
After a passionate speech, hope for life flowed in the eyes of these displaced people.
Especially when Lynn said that as long as they were completely obedient, they wouldn’t have to worry about hunger!
After he had Lex prepare some barley bread and wild wolf meat for them,
their gaze at Lynn changed instantly.
Watching these eleven displaced people eat and drink their fill and squeeze into the newly built wooden hut, Lynn felt a bit emotional.
Luckily, he had just built a wooden hut, otherwise, these people would have had to spend the night outdoors!
...
The next morning.
The displaced people saw the barley bread and salted fish barley porridge again, and finally believed Master Lynn’s words.
Master Lynn could really feed them!
Master Lynn even personally led them to cut wood in the forest and helped them build wooden houses to live in!
They felt they had finally followed the right Lord!
At the edge of the forest, Lynn stood with the Iron Axe in his right hand.
His eyes looked ahead where the newly joined villagers were swinging axes with all their strength, full of hope for the future.
Their Loyalty level was rapidly increasing.
Lynn nodded in satisfaction.
Saying that a kind man can’t lead soldiers is certainly true.
However, now Lynn was called a Lord by title,
but to put it bluntly, he was just a village head with only a few villagers!
Could he use the pressure of a Lord on the newly joined eleven villagers?
No, he couldn’t!
He didn’t have many soldiers, and Lynn wasn’t in a strong position!
The eleven villagers consisted of four families, two children, plus two burly men.
Adding the eleven who were there before, the village now had a population of twenty-two.
With their addition, Lynn clearly felt the work efficiency had increased again.
The Needle Pine Wood at the forest’s edge was visibly decreasing.
Log after log was carried back to the village.
In their amazed eyes, Lynn led them to build five wooden houses and two Brewing workshop huts, completing them in just two days.
Lynn’s [Construction] finally leveled up.
[Your Construction has leveled up to Level 1, unlocking: Character Panel]
[Reward received: Memory Pearl ×1]
Looking at the text introduction in front of him, Lynn’s eyebrows raised.
A panel where you can see detailed information of everyone?
Lynn turned his gaze to Red beside him.
[Name]: Red Harper
[Age]: 25 years old
[Attributes]: Attack D, Defense E+, Speed D-, Constitution D-, Energy E
[Talent]: Focus - Calm down when using a bow, improving accuracy
[Skills]: None
...
Looking at Red’s character panel, Lynn instantly understood.
Red was not some game character.
The existence of the [Character Panel] merely showcased Red’s abilities in numerical form.
It allowed Lynn to more intuitively see everyone’s talents and abilities.
No wonder Red’s accuracy with the Horn Bow was so high; turns out he had the talent for using a bow and arrow.
Lynn then looked at the middle-aged man who had just joined in the front.
[Name]: Valentine Edwards
[Age]: 42 years old
[Attributes]: Attack E+, Defense E-, Speed E-, Constitution E+, Energy F-
[Talent]: None
[Skills]: None
...
No talents, just an ordinary person.
Lynn walked around the village, scanning everyone, and was not satisfied with anyone’s attributes.
Only Kuisi had a [Well-organized] talent.
Guy had [Beast Affinity], and Lex had [Temperature Perception] talent.
These talents all belonged to administrative talents!
Lynn sighed, Red’s strength was evident to all.
...
With more labor, Lynn could carry out more plans at the same time.
Lynn called over Kuisi.
He instructed her to arrange a fixed team to dig and transport humus from the forest, piling it at the edge of the farmland.
Then, using manure from dry toilets and straw, proceed with composting, waiting for the summer tillage.
The composting time would take at least two months to mature.
Further, although the planted three mu of wheat wasn’t much, it still required weeding and irrigation.
However, there’s no need to assign people to guard the wheat field all day. Just a few broken acres, Lynn’s experience wasn’t even enough.
Then, the Acadia River Fishing Cage couldn’t stop; if damaged, it should be repaired immediately.
Before livestock breeding started, river fish was the village’s most important and fastest meat source!
Finally, there was the farmland.
Now, with so much labor, more people could be arranged to clear weeds, branches, and stones embedded in the soil, waiting for oxen to cultivate.
There were still too few oxen, if there were more, more wasteland could be cultivated!
All these belong to agricultural production, and Kuisi, with her [Well-organized] talent,
Lynn could just make decisions and leave them to her to execute.
Kuisi responded and left Lynn’s wooden hut.
Seeing everything in well-organized progress, Lynn, carrying an axe, walked into the kitchen.
Pa!
Pa-pa!
Pa-pa-pa!
The sound of the axe landing on the wooden cutting board kept coming from the kitchen.
Half of a smoked wild boar was visibly cut into pieces.
No choice.
The fully smoked, dried wild boar was too tough to be cut without using the axe on the boar’s tough skin!
Some passing villagers had expressions full of incredulity.
Master Lynn, the Lord, was cutting wild boar meat?
Was it to prepare a meal?
[Cooking Experience +1]
[Cooking Experience +1]
Bit by bit, the experience kept quickly increasing.
Cooking knowledge appeared in Lynn’s mind and quickly integrated.
He poured over fifty pounds of wild boar meat into a large Pottery Pot, added over fifty pounds of barley, and then added a hundred pounds of river water.
Added a few thick logs, and began the simmering.
[Cooking Experience +1]
...
Until night fell.
All the villagers who went out returned, and a pot of enticingly fragrant wild boar meat barley porridge was placed on the open ground outside the wooden hut.
Watching the bubbling and steaming pot, its thickness almost like barley rice.
Their eyes were full of longing, and they unconsciously swallowed.
Lynn glanced over them and solemnly said.
"As long as you obey my orders and maintain a hundred percent effort in labor, after each day’s work, you will have such food to eat!"
"This is my promise to you as Lynn!"
