Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1725 The First Class (Bonus Chapter for 500 Monthly Tickets)

After finalizing the production details of the steam tank, Zhou Xu returned to his daily life in the following days.

I handle government affairs in the morning and study job titles in the afternoon.

Inside the palace, Zhou Xu was completely focused, constantly combining and connecting one mantra after another.

Compared to the beginning, his operation was much smoother, and he looked like a veteran. This was all thanks to the experience gained from repeated failures.

Finally...

The creation of the class system was in its final stages, but Zhou Xu, who was highly focused, showed little sign of tension.

The process of creating the job class itself didn't put Zhou Xu under much pressure or burden, since he was only creating a low-level, or even entry-level, job class.

This process is similar to programming; the key is how to make the 'program' work as you envision it, which is a brain-intensive task.

"It's done!"

Zhou Xu slowly exhaled a long breath, looking at the class floating in his palm. At this moment, he felt a little nervous.

This wasn't the first time he'd created this class, but it had failed in practice each time.

Therefore, he knew very well that the real test was yet to come.

Just as Zhou Xu was thinking this, a system notification suddenly sounded...

System notification: An unnamed unknown class has been detected. Do you wish to absorb it?
This prompt clearly startled Zhou Xu.

Because when he created it before, the system hadn't been improved at all.

Wait a minute! Could it be...?

At that moment, Zhou Xu, who clearly realized something, quickly replaced the expression on his face with undisguised joy.

[Because the previous attempts to create class classes failed, the system didn't react at all. But this time the system reacted, which means I succeeded!!]

Zhou Xu was overjoyed to discover the system's hidden function and quickly agreed.

As soon as Zhou Xu confirmed his identity, the system notification sounded again.

System notification: Congratulations to 'Zhou Xu' for obtaining an unknown class.

System message: The corresponding module is loading, please wait...

System notification: The corresponding module has been loaded.

Amidst a series of system prompts, Zhou Xu eagerly entered the job rank interface to confirm.

As expected, an "unnamed" class has appeared next to the "Dragon Lord".

Click on it quickly.

Compared to the well-made, complete, and even massive Dragon Lord, his was far too simple, making him feel a little embarrassed.

However, his rank was originally designed for use by the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The core content lies in the various basic enhancement effects.

Zhou Xu summarized all the enhancements, such as 'speed enhancement', 'attack enhancement', 'weapon enhancement', and 'control enhancement', into this class.

The control enhancement was originally designed for use with skeleton soldiers, but it was later discovered that it could also significantly increase the flexibility of ordinary soldiers' wrist joints.

Whether using weapons or operating machinery, one can gain a certain degree of advantage.

Following this line of thought, Zhou Xu created both passive and active effects. This was something he learned from the 'wisdom of inheritance'.

The passive effect is easy to understand; after upgrading, it directly improves the holder's basic attributes.

However, because these mantras are all too basic, their potential for improvement is not high; even at the maximum level, the improvement is only minimal.

After all, the target group is the soldiers of their Great Zhou. If the level of the True Word is too high, the enhancement items created will probably be impossible for ordinary soldiers to unlock and upgrade, which would be putting the cart before the horse.

In comparison, actively casting incantations can provide a more significant boost, but it also consumes more resources.

The way to unlock and upgrade is the same as all other job classes: you can inject either mana or true energy; essentially, it's about injecting energy.

Given Zhou Xu's current strength, he could easily unlock and upgrade all the projects with a flick of his finger.

"Smooth operation, no problems!"

Since the essence of these mantras is already within Zhou Xu's body, unlocking these items cannot provide him with any blessing.

Because the mantra within his body had already provided him with a blessing, this effect cannot be stacked.

But it doesn't matter. What he wants to do now is confirm whether this job class can function smoothly.

Now it seems there are no problems.

"Oh right, we also need to come up with a name for this rank. Let's be direct and call it 'Great Zhou Soldier'."

As Zhou Xu's name was confirmed, the 'Unnamed' display on the panel changed to show the words 'Great Zhou Soldier'.

Zhou Xu nodded in satisfaction.

"The next step is to figure out how to assign this rank to every soldier of the Great Zhou."

Undoubtedly, this class has the characteristic of being 'replicable'.

After all, Zhou Xu's initial plan was for each of their Great Zhou soldiers to have one.

Although the improvement is limited, as long as the soldiers can unlock and upgrade all of them, their overall strength will definitely increase by one level.

"At present, the best solution is to assign them to the recruit camp or the military administration department, to provide them upon enlistment and to take them back upon discharge."

Of course, considering practical issues, it's unrealistic to expect to achieve full coverage across the entire military all at once.

Therefore, we should start by arranging for the generals and elite troops, and then proceed to the elite units, arranging them layer by layer.

Although the rank is called 'Great Zhou Soldier', officers can use it too, since Great Zhou doesn't have any other ranks to offer right now.

Once he creates a new class, he can replace it for them.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xu didn't rest. He directly ordered his personal guards to summon the Minister of Military Affairs to the palace. While letting the minister try it out, he assigned the task of granting him a rank.

After doing all this, Zhou Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Ultimately, our capabilities are limited. If only we could make it like the Trial Hall for the female warrior race, where facilities corresponding to the appropriate class are automatically distributed upon meeting certain conditions. Right now, we have to distribute them manually.

However, he was just thinking about it casually. He had confirmed the trial hall of the female warrior race back then, and the complexity of that thing was clearly beyond his current capabilities.

Let alone now, even if he breaks through another major realm and reaches the Transformation Realm, he might not be able to handle conducting research.

Not to mention that his current strength is stuck at the Gold Three-Star level of the Nascent Soul realm, and he can't advance any further in the short term.

Or perhaps it's because his strength improved too quickly before, and now it's time for him to settle down and accumulate experience slowly.
