Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 1507 The Game Arena 57
Being able to only passively respond to attacks and not take the initiative is not Linlang's style.

But without a real enemy to be found, this is the only option for now.

No matter what, saving my life is the priority.

Linlang's temporary solution is to merge as many territories as possible. If they are too far apart to merge, residents of territories that have already been upgraded to a higher level will be sent to other territories that have not yet been upgraded to become official residents. The engineering battalion will be responsible for their safety on the way, and they will be paid for each trip. Once that territory is upgraded to a higher level, whether they return or stay in that territory is up to them to decide.

Linlang's method naturally exploited a bug where, after reaching a higher level, the number of official residents decreased but the territory level did not drop.

Although most people are afraid of taking risks, even with the protection of an engineer battalion, they still dare not take risks. However, with a generous reward, there will always be people willing to gather people from the surrounding territories of the territory that needs to be upgraded, and it is still possible to upgrade the territory that has not yet been upgraded.

However, this also has its limits. As the number of official residents needed for the upgrade increases, there may not be enough residents from the surrounding territories who are willing to go.

Therefore, we still need to think of a better solution.

Linlang searched tirelessly for relevant information on both the lord forum and the ordinary player forum, hoping that anyone could come up with a good solution. After all, two heads are better than one, and just because she couldn't think of a good solution didn't mean that everyone else couldn't.

Although I believe that someone will eventually come up with a good solution, with so many people on the forum and countless posts every day, it is extremely difficult to sift out useful information.

It would be a bit difficult for ordinary people, but fortunately Linlang had a quantum computer. She tried to see if she could use the quantum computer to connect to the system forum and have the quantum computer intelligently summarize and statistically analyze the methods discussed in the system forum for dealing with the game field or upgrading the territory level, to see if any of them would be useful to her.

Linlang initially thought she wouldn't be able to connect, since she hadn't found any trace of a higher-dimensional murderer in this world. She had considered that this world might be more technologically advanced than her own, or at least roughly the same level.

To Linlang's surprise, the computer was able to connect to the system forum network and perform data analysis and aggregation.

Immediately, let the quantum computer check where the root server of this network is. After all, if there is a network, there must be traces to follow.

As it turned out... she was disappointed. After the quantum computer investigated, it was discovered that the root server of this network was actually using the network of this planet, and the server was the original server of this world.

No wonder they were able to connect; it turns out the people behind the game site were using locally sourced materials.

It seems the person behind this is quite cunning—if there is one.

Although this world has been turned into a game arena, the other party has still preserved the network of this world, which surprised Linlang quite a bit. She just doesn't know how the other party preserved it. After all, there are territories all over the world now, so how is the network preserved?

Perhaps it should be placed in the ocean, since the ocean has no territory now; territory is only on land.

Although the person behind the scenes couldn't be found by following the internet connection, the search for the ingenious ideas of people all over the world yielded some results.

That makes sense. With so many people in the world, how could there not be a few with brilliant ideas? After summarizing and categorizing, the AI ​​recommended several methods to Linlang that, from the perspective of artificial intelligence, were useful.

Of course, this is the perspective of artificial intelligence; whether it is actually useful depends on Linlang's opinion.

The first rule is: When a territory becomes too crowded with surrounding territories, and the system asks everyone to move their territory, some people suggest moving the territory to any small island. If the island is too small to move, then move it to a place surrounded by water on three sides. There are no monsters on the water, only on the land. In this way, even if you can't level up for a while, only one side will be attacked. The territory can place all the arrow towers on that side and use the concentrated advantage to kill monsters. Even if the monsters' levels get higher and higher, as long as the monsters can still break through the defenses, the territory can be protected for a while thanks to the attack of a large number of arrow towers.

The AI ​​thought this method was good and recommended it to Linlang.

It's not bad, but you can only hide for a while, not forever. In the end, you can't level up, the monsters are getting higher and higher, the territory's attacks can't break through the defenses, but the monsters can still attack the territory, and the territory still can't escape death.

Secondly, some suggested that regardless of whether the territory could be upgraded or not, all efforts should be made to improve the combat power of the engineer battalion, and simply let the engineer battalion replace the territory's defense measures to directly fight the monsters.

Of course, the engineer battalion's level is limited by the territory's level. When the engineer battalion can no longer be upgraded, players can take over. As long as there are enough high-level players guarding the territory, monsters cannot get close to the walls or break through the territory's walls, and the territory will be fine.

This point makes sense, but forming an elite team, or a unit similar to an engineer battalion, is not a simple matter.

First of all, in this situation, if the lord doesn't step in and only issues quests in the quest hall, I'm afraid this team won't be able to be assembled.

However, if a lord were to take the lead in forming such a large, army-like force, it could easily lead to a loss of control if the lord was not a military strategist. In the end, the power of this large army would fall into the hands of the military within the territory. If the enemy were to conquer the territory, it would change hands. Therefore, most lords, unless they have the ability, would probably not dare to form such a large army. They would rather use 100% loyal engineer battalions.

Secondly, even if the lord has military talent and can control the huge army in his territory, does the lord have enough money to support this army? Just shouting slogans and saying that the territory will perish if the monster attack is not resisted may be able to rally people to help for a while, but it is impossible to keep people helping in the long run.

However, Linlang intends to take this into consideration, because if the territory really can't find any residents to continue upgrading, then players will indeed have to rely on themselves to keep upgrading and fighting monsters.

As long as everyone acts like the engineer battalion and keeps the monsters in front of the territory, preventing them from getting close, it's fine even if the territory doesn't upgrade.

Thirdly, some suggested building underground cities within the territory.

Currently, there are monsters that fly in the sky and run on the ground, but none that burrow underground. So, it would be better to build a dungeon. If the territory can't be upgraded and is destroyed, everyone can hide underground. This way, it's safe to sleep at night, and during the day, we can fight monsters as before. In this way, it doesn't matter if we don't have a territory, since everyone will have a safe place to live.

This option is also feasible.

But the fear is that if there really is someone behind this, it won't be so easy for everyone to hide in the dungeon. After all, it's just a matter of someone pulling a finger to make it happen. If there are underground monsters, wouldn't everyone be wiped out by them if they were hiding underground?

Therefore, Linlang will make preparations for this, but will not use it unless absolutely necessary.
