Our neighborhood has been transported again.

Chapter 226 Anchor Connection (Fourth Update)
Remove the new function card.

[Insight Card] Anchor Connection.

[Activation Function: Level 2 Anchorage]

[Privileges elevated, current privileges: Level 3 (6/8)]

[Level 2 Anchor Link: After locking onto a target community, a permanent anchor point can be established within that community. Users can then travel to that community from within their homestead. Current anchorable quantity: 2]

Can this anchor point lock onto the community?

What's the point of locking down the community? Isn't the community center located within the community?

Wait a minute, Qin Ziwen suddenly thought of a possibility.

It seems that the community being anchored doesn't have to be one's own community.

In other words, can it be anchored to other communities?

Conversely, if residents in other communities also unlock the anchoring function, can they also anchor to their own community?
If each neighborhood is an isolated island traversing different worlds...

With this anchoring function, it's like being able to build a bridge between isolated islands!
Of course, this is in consideration of the fact that the Homestead already had the Challenge and Safe House features.

Therefore, Qin Ziwen can reasonably speculate that in addition to anchoring, it may also have the function of "anti-anchoring".

Ultimately, it will most likely come down to a competition of privileges.

However, Qin Ziwen was still confident in his ability to compete in terms of authority.

Unless you encounter a predecessor from another community who time-traveled earlier than you.

Otherwise, at the same time, there shouldn't be many people with higher privileges than yourself.

After upgrading his permissions, Qin Ziwen was about to get up.

Then they saw Tao Fu rushing over.

"Sir, the keel ship is now in its basic form. Would you like to take a look?"

It concerned an important mode of transportation for the next map, so Qin Ziwen went along.

We arrived at the dock.

On the open ground, there was a wooden boat frame, about seven or eight meters long, with the entire boat upside down on the dry dock.

The wooden boat's outer edge and ribs were filled with many planks, and its general outline could already be seen.

"Approximately how long will it take to complete?"

"It should be completed within seven days," Tao Fu gave an approximate figure.

"Hmm." Qin Ziwen knew that this speed was actually not slow, thanks to the amplification effect of the dock building and the assistance of the Armory Administration.

[Tier 1 Shipyard: Tier 1 Shipbuilding Efficiency Increase, Tier 1 Worker Efficiency Increase]

But he was still not satisfied.

Including the time spent beforehand, it would take about eight or nine days to build a boat, which would be a small boat only seven or eight meters long.

These types of ships are generally unable to go out to sea in marine environments and can only operate in waters not far from the shore.

Even if we take all the time in the next map, forty-five days, we can only build a maximum of five small boats.

For the average person, this might be enough; such a small boat can barely make a living by fishing in coastal waters.

What are the difficulties that limit the speed of shipbuilding?

Tao Fu said, "As for manpower and the size of the dock, Mr. Jia has transferred a few helpers from the Ordnance Bureau, so we don't need manpower for the time being. But if we expand the scale, we will still need manpower for the new ships. It would be best to bring in some skilled shipbuilding workers. These helpers are all novices in shipbuilding, so I will have to train them myself."

"Understood." Qin Ziwen nodded, examined his cards, flipping them over and over, and finally found that the only card he had left that could help the dock was a regular building enhancement card.

The effect of a normal building enhancement card is to unconditionally upgrade normal buildings below level five by one level.

It would be a waste to classify a building as a first-class building.

It's important to know that upgrading a building from level 4 to level 5 requires a total of 8 level 1 building cards of the same name.

"Let me think of something else." After leaving the dock, Qin Ziwen pondered for a moment, and a thought flashed through his mind: Could it be that without the corresponding card building, it was impossible to make the corresponding tool?
That doesn't make sense.

At most, the speed will be a bit slower.

He found Jia Liangcai and asked, "Last time you inquired about whether there were any shipbuilding talents in the community." "Reporting to my lord, we haven't found any yet. The community wasn't a coastal city before, so there aren't many talents in this field. Most of those involved in the shipbuilding industry are in purchasing and marketing, not front-line workers."

After hearing Jia Liangcai use the words "procurement" and "marketing," Qin Ziwen could confirm that he had done professional research.

“If we don’t have shipbuilding skills, we can find skilled workers in other woodworking techniques.” After a moment of contemplation, Qin Ziwen continued, “We can also increase our search efforts by looking into taverns and soup kitchens.”

"Yes."

Watching Jia Liangcai's retreating figure, Qin Ziwen called out to him, "Liangcai, if there are too many things to do, you can also find two assistants to help you. Don't overwork yourself."

He then summoned Du Yu, Qin Ziwu, Cao Biansheng, and others.

Gather the core hunting team members.

He noticed a somewhat restless atmosphere, though he didn't know when it had started.

Perhaps it started with Du Yu's breakthrough, the birth of the extraordinary in the Qin Alliance, or the breakthrough of the horned eagle, or perhaps it began after they successfully hunted the giant rock dragon.

"It seems everyone's been quite confident lately. Well then, I'll show you something great."

Qin Ziwen smiled and said, "I won't participate. I'll just watch how you do it from the sidelines."

Qin Ziwu frowned, realizing that things were not so simple.

Based on his understanding of his older brother, if his brother showed that kind of smile, it was probably not a good thing.

Led by Qin Ziwen, the group arrived outside the Blood Sand Arena.

Looking at the blood-stained building before me, which exuded a strong and chilling aura.

Qin Ziwu's heart sank.

Cao Biansheng asked curiously, "President, what's in here?"

"This contains courage."

"courage?"

"That's right. This building is called the Blood Sand Arena. It's a good place for you to understand yourselves and hone your courage. Don't worry, you won't really die here, just like the arena in the Martial Arts Training Ground."

Upon hearing that he wouldn't actually die, Cao Biansheng's eyes lit up.

But the name is Colosseum, so what are they going to fight? Are they going to make them fight harpy eagles?

Filled with many doubts.

Du Yu led Cao Biansheng and the others into the Blood Sand Arena.

"Oh!"

The gate behind them slammed shut.

Inside the empty arena, there were no spectator stands, only tall stone walls and hard earth beneath one's feet.

Qin Ziwen took out the Giant Rock Dragon Summoning Card and then embedded it in the Blood Sand Arena.

As the light faded.

A giant rock dragon, four meters tall and ten meters long, appeared opposite them.

The summoned giant rock dragon stood silently in place, like a mountain.

Qin Ziwen noticed a key point: the summoned giant rock dragon did not have those prismatic crystal pillars on its back, but only a layer of grayish-brown mud armor that resembled rock armor.

The giant rock dragon let out a low roar.

"Moo~"

In an instant, the soil within a ten-meter radius of the crowd gathered in front suddenly collapsed, and most of them were caught off guard and their knees sank directly into the mud!

Only a few people realized what was happening and managed to escape.

Du Yu's expression hardened after the exchange just now.

He keenly noticed that the giant rock dragon in front of him was different from the giant rock dragon he had hunted yesterday. Its ability was faster to cast and the range of its ability seemed to be larger!

　Yesterday's is done, time to get back to today's. So sleepy...
