Final Lord

Chapter 29 Military Strategists

Villagers...

Wang Bufu quickly opened his attribute panel.

[Name: Wang Bufu

Level: Ordinary 2nd level 9

……

First Occupation: Commander (to be advanced)

Second occupation: Villager (pending employment)
...]

Hmm! Wang Bufu's head exploded with a buzzing sound. Not only do I have two talents, but I also have two professions?!

Wang Bufu took a deep breath and asked Uncle Ming to start the dinner early. He then ran to a secluded place and studied it seriously.

[Would you like to become a second-class villager? This requires 10 gold coins. If you do, you'll need double experience for each level-up, and advancement will only be unlocked when both classes reach the same rank.]

"I understand." Wang Bufu's eyes lit up.

Commander is Kate's profession, and Villager is her own profession! It's really a dual profession!
The Wise King develops internal affairs to support his soldiers, and the Immortal Soldier leads these soldiers into battle. The Immortal Soldier then turns enemies into friends, capturing more people for the Wise King's development. The Wise King then develops internal affairs, creating a virtuous cycle that grows stronger. Compared to the cap increase from dual classes, the doubled experience penalty is practically non-existent.

What else is there to think about? Just get a job!
Occupation: Villager
Special Skill: Planting Mastery: Expertise in planting crops. 】

[The village reputation has reached the upper limit, and the conditions for upgrading to ordinary level 2 village management have been met.

It costs 15 gold coins to advance. Do you want to advance?】

"Advanced!"

【Occupation: Village Management
Special Skill: Leader: When leading villagers to work, the villagers' work efficiency increases by 50%]

[You have already possessed the fire of Shengyang Village and have been recognized by the villagers of Shengyang Village. The conditions for advancing to an ordinary 3rd-level village chief have been met.

Advancement requires 50 gold coins and is currently unavailable. Please wait for the Commander Path to meet the advancement requirements. Please find the Commander Path advancement formula as soon as possible.

"Wow, so this is what dual professions are like. I've learned something new." Wang Bufu smiled slightly.

"A commander's standard tier 3 advancement is Quartermaster, with special abilities in Arms Command, War Diplomacy, and Inspiration. Inspiration is a skill that boosts morale. With the Ultimate God of War here, my troops don't need this much morale.

At level 3, don’t take the normal advancement route, jump out of the car, become extraordinary, and then jump back.

The biggest advantage of the human career path is its versatility. You can jump back and forth between many career advancement levels. One level up, you might be a cook, and the next, you'll be learning military tactics. It's a shame not to take advantage of it.

I decided to jump out of the car, but what should I jump out of?

Wang Bufu touched his chin and thought for a while, then suddenly sat up.

"That's right! That's right! We can do this! How could I almost forget such an important thing?"

He took out a small notebook and wrote furiously.

Wang Bufu wrote a book of military strategy with more than 30,000 words in just three hours without any thought. The book mainly discussed how to use the special skills of soldiers to change the terrain, so as to make the battlefield favorable to oneself.

"To summarize, special military skills aren't limited to enemy soldiers. They can often be more effective when applied to battlefield terrain. A general who doesn't understand geography is a mediocre general."

When Wang Bufu put down the last stroke, a dazzling golden light appeared on the edge of the small notebook. The cover of the notebook seemed to be burned by fire, forming three gold-plated characters: "The Book of Military Land, Volume One, Using Land as Soldiers".

Congratulations on completing the military strategy "Book of Military Land, Volume 1: Using Land as Weapons." After evaluation, your strategy has been rated S-level. If you offer it to the gods, you will receive a generous reward.

Sacrifice? It's not the right time yet, just an S-rank.

[Independently create a military strategy book rated S-level or above, meeting the requirements for advancement to the strategist level.]

Wang Bufu came to the material warehouse, took out all the filtered ether silver and made up 3 units, then took out 150 gold coins and placed them in the palm of his hand, closing his eyes slightly.

Advancement begins!
The resources in his hands turned into flowing light and sank into his body. A white mist swirled around him, clearing the dust off his body.

A moment later, the fire in Wang Bufu's body and the book of military strategy in his hand flew into the air, hovering on his left and right shoulders respectively, and finally re-entered his body.

White mist surged, and Wang Bufu's clothes fluttered, making him look like a banished immortal!

Advancement successful! Ordinary level 3, level 1.

【Attributes:

"So that's how dual-class attributes are calculated—the maximum value of each attribute of the two classes becomes my attribute.

The village chief's attack is 10, the tactician's attack is 18, and my attack is 18. The village chief's speed is 10, the tactician's speed is 9, and my speed is 10.

Occupation: Village Chief
Special skill:

Gathering the hearts of the people: allows you to possess the special attribute - the hearts of the people.

Village Order: You can choose a village order every week. Currently available orders:
Development: Villager building construction speed +10%, villager work efficiency +10%.

War Preparation: Increase the experience gain speed of subjects by 5%

[Occupation: Military Strategist

Special skill:

1. Ingenious Command: You can command troops to fight and make them understand some complex tactics.

2. Military tactics: Use military value to release military tactics in battle.

Currently possesses the military strategy: "Book of Military Land, Volume 2, Using the Land as Weapons." This strategy consumes 30 military strategy points and has the effect of increasing the efficiency of our units' terrain transformation by 100% for minutes.

[Due to the change of profession, the following special skills are invalid:

Arms command, war diplomacy, and castling. 】

"Very good." Wang Bufu was delighted. "A tactician's [Military Strategy] is a very special lifelong skill. The essence of the skill lies in the military tactics mastered, not the skill itself. It doesn't become unusable just because of a class change. It's a bit like a [Spellcaster] in a mage class or a [Summoner] in a summoning class.

Going to Tier 3 Military Strategy means I'll permanently lose the chance to gain the [Inspire] perk. Trading Inspire for Military Strategy is like trading a used bicycle for a supercar—it's a steal.

In my previous life, I learned about this method too late and regretted it for years. I never thought I would have the opportunity to make amends in this life."

Today, having lost the encouragement, I can only find solace in the strategies of war.

Wang Bufu looked at the military manual that appeared and disappeared from his hand, smiling broadly. "In my previous life, those who could follow the path of the military strategists were those quick-witted bastards. They copied everything from the Thirty-Six Strategies, the Three-Three System, and the Grand Strategic Depth. In this life, all those tactics are mine."

Wang Bufu was filled with emotion and was about to write another military book. However, as he wrote, he felt a sharp pain in his head and his vision became a little blurry.

"Oh no, I'm mentally drained..." Wang Bufu paused, closing the half-written book on military strategy. For him, creation was easy, but containment was difficult. To integrate his own military strategy into his soul, to make it a complete part of him, required soul strength. His soul was still weak, unable to accommodate multiple military strategies in a short period of time, so he had to take it step by step.

Wang Bufu really envied the NPCs in Shen Gu's world. It took them several years or even decades to create a book of military strategy, and they would not encounter such troubles.

Wang Bufu closed his eyes and rested for a while, but he still felt very tired. He simply put away the book of military strategy and returned to the inauguration banquet to enjoy himself with the people.

By the time Wang Bufu returned, the banquet was over and it was time to chat and discuss. Butler Ming was sitting among the cavemen, gulping down a bowl of delicious mushroom soup.

After he had finished easing his mouth, he told the story of the glorious deeds of Wang Bufu's father, Lao Gru, in front of the expectant eyes of the cave people.

"Back then, our Buck Principality had over 300 pioneering knights. They all carried fire and built villages around the Chaos Land.

Among these more than 300 pioneer knights were scions of great noble families, renowned adventurers, and generals with distinguished military achievements. Master Gru, who came from a humble background, was the least impressive of the pioneer knights.

But who could have imagined that five years later, all the pioneering knights had run away or died, and only the master persisted.

……

When the master's spark was promoted from a village spark to a baronial spark, all of us old people who followed the master cried our hearts out.

It's not easy!
At that time, everyone said that Master Gru was a natural-born noble, a genius blessed by the gods. But who could have imagined that during the process of pioneering, Master Gru would suffer a hidden injury from fighting monsters, his strength stagnated, and he died young.

"Wow, wow, wow. If the master were still here, how could the young master be bullied by that ambitious Lincoln? The master would glare at Lincoln, and he would immediately kneel down, not daring to raise his head.

Fortunately, with the master's blessing, our young master is not a coward, and he took the fire of the village and took root in this desolate place.

"The master is a natural-born noble, and the young master is certainly a natural-born noble as well. You are all his subjects, and you will endure hardships with him. When the young master takes back the barony, we will all have a good life."

Wang Bufu, who had just completed his advancement, returned to the banquet hall and heard Butler Ming bragging about himself. He smiled and shook his head, shouting, "Uncle Ming."

"Hey! Young Master." Butler Ming immediately stood up and looked at Wang Bufu.

His eyes lit up. He saw Wang Bufu standing tall and proud, with a ruddy complexion and a look of great joy.

Butler Ming was immediately overjoyed and asked anxiously, "Master! Did you succeed in advancing?!"

"Yeah. It's a piece of cake." Wang Bufu bowed to Butler Ming.

Butler Ming clapped his hands suddenly, "Hey! So you are now an ordinary level 3! Level 3 is great. When you reach level 3, you are not far from the extraordinary level. When you reach the extraordinary level, our territory will have three extraordinary people. Reclaiming the Barony is just around the corner!"

"Haha, if we want to reclaim the Barony, it's not enough to rely on a few extraordinary people. We need everyone to work together to succeed." Wang Bufu smiled and looked at the cavemen and cat sand beasts. He found that the news of his successful advancement made the cavemen excited, but the cat sand beasts reacted calmly.

That's the difference in loyalty.

The cavemen who joined the territory first already have a sense of belonging and will cheer for their progress. The cat sand beasts who just joined the territory are not as good as before.

But it didn't matter. Wang Bufu believed that as long as he was given a little time, the cat sand beasts would soon truly integrate into the territory like the cave people and treat the territory as their home.

"Ahem." He feigned a cough, and when everyone's attention was focused, he spoke loudly, "My fellow lords, I, the Lord, have gone ahead and reached Level 3. You must follow as quickly as possible.

Don't let me reach the extraordinary level and you still stay at the first level, otherwise you will fall behind. Of course, we should combine work and rest, and rest when it is time to rest. Uncle Ming, put out another batch of food, and everyone can eat to their heart's content tonight."

"Woo-la!"

The cavemen loved this down-to-earth lord. They cheered and danced around him.

Obviously, Wang Bufu's advancement gave the cavemen a shot in the arm.

Very good, the army's morale is high. Wang Bufu smiled slightly upon seeing this, and silently activated [Village Order: Prepare for War]. [Prepare for War: +5% Experience Gain Speed ​​for Citizens]

Wang Bufu was well aware that the territory's basic production capacity had yet to be built up, and that killing monsters to obtain supplies was much more efficient than production. The combat effectiveness of the people in the territory was the key to defeating monsters.

Prepare for battle!

It’s fun to prepare for a while, and it’s fun to prepare all the time!

The banquet continued, and Butler Ming took the time to get close to Wang Bufu.

"Master, there is something."

"what happened?"

"That's right. Master, the mushrooms you provided are very delicious and have solved the food problem for the cavemen and us. But these new cat sand beasts are carnivorous.

I let them smell the mushrooms and wheat cakes, but they refused to eat them.

That won't do. There's no way we can feed them that much meat in our territory."

Seeing Butler Ming's embarrassed expression, Wang Bufu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Ming, it's easy. We don't keep idle cats in our territory. Now that they have become our subjects, they must learn to be self-reliant. I'll call Weiyi over."

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

Wang Bufu was just about to call Wei Yi when Wei Yi appeared at the entrance of the cave.

She had clearly just finished a strenuous workout. Sweat trickled down Weiyi's trembling eyelashes, drawing a shimmering arc in the firelight. Her thin shorts clung to her thighs, and traces of water snaked along her skin like mysterious rivers.

"Weiyi. What have you been doing? Why are you sweating all over?"

"Brother Kate!" Hearing Wang's unconvinced cry, Wei Yi walked over with a smile. "I had a one-on-one sparring session with Gilgamesh. Last time, I won unfairly, and Gilgamesh didn't seem very convinced."

Wang Bufu laughed: "Oh? So what was the result?"

"Hmph." Wei Yi smiled and raised her sword, creating a beautiful sword flower. "It and I are both at the Transcendent Level 1, but there are still differences between Transcendents."

"Well, you're worthy of being my genius sister." Wang Bufu was quite pleased. Even with Gilgamesh joining, Weiyi still maintained her position as the most powerful fighter in the territory.

"Hey, I didn't win, it was a draw."

Wang Bubu:...

"Then what are you pretending to be for me?"

"I used a tree branch to hit you. I haven't used the ring yet. If I use everything, I will definitely win!" Wei Yi patted her calm chest.

Sniff.

At this moment, Wei Yi approached Wang Bu Fu, his nose twitched, his eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Brother Kate, you have advanced!"
