He withdrew his gaze, turned and walked towards the southeast corner of the inner city, where the lights on both sides of the bluestone road were still on.

He stopped in front of the stone gate of the Qin elite camp and placed his hand on the stone wall.

The moment my fingertip touched the stone gate, the interface silently unfolded before my eyes.

【Lord identity detected】

【The status of the Qin Elite Battalion is being updated...】

【Current Territory Level: City Level】

【Barracks has unlocked a new stage】

Lin Feng's gaze quickly swept across the interface. The familiar recruitment option was still there, but the numbers had changed.

【Currently trainable unit types】

【Unit Type 1: Weakened Qin Garrison Soldiers (Infantry) - Current Recruitable Quantity: 100/100】

【Unit Type 2: Qin Garrison Soldiers (Infantry) - Current Recruitable Quantity: 1000/7000】

【Unit Type 3: Qin Garrison Soldiers (Crossbowmen) - Current Recruitable Quantity: 300/1300】

【Unit Type 4: Weakened Qin Elite Warriors - Current Recruitable Quantity: 23000/27000】

His eyebrows rose slightly. The weakened Qin elite soldiers had been given an additional four thousand, and the garrison soldiers had increased by eight thousand. These numbers were all within expectations and not surprising.

But what truly made his heart race was the new content that appeared below.

【Troop Type 5: Qin Elite Warriors】

【Level: Lv19】

【Attributes: Strength 18.8, Constitution 15.7, Agility 15】

【Health Points: 357 (557 after applying Might bonus)】

【Attack Power: 144 (151 after adding Might)】

【Overall Defense: 205】

【Equipment: Full set of blue gear】

【Trait 1 - Precision Shot (Passive): Increases crossbow bolt accuracy by 20%, Agility by 30%】

【Trait 2 - Unfazed by Pain (Passive): Constitution +30%, Strength +20%】

【Qin Army Soul - Elite Warriors (Garrison Soldiers) (I):...When the quantity is ≥8900, the firing rate is increased by 50%, crossbow bolts have a 25% chance to ignore 25% of the target's defense, and attack power is increased by 30】

【Qin Dynasty Army Soul - Elite Warriors (Garrison Soldiers) (II):...When the number is ≥8900, all units gain +40 defense, +600 health, and a 25% chance to block when attacked.】

Training requirements: qualified refugees or awakened individuals (Agility ≥ 5, Strength ≥ 5, Stamina ≥ 5).

Materials: 3 units of copper, 3 units of tin;

Energy: 30 gray energy crystals (or 3 white energy crystals); Training time: 10 days

【Currently available recruitment quantity: 0/2000】

Lin Feng's eyes lit up. The real Qin elite soldiers, fully equipped in blue, and the effect of a ten-thousand-strong army formation had finally appeared.

The level 19 unit has significantly higher base stats than the weakened version.

He quickly did a mental calculation: the Qin warriors' health was originally only 357, but with the addition of the General's Might bonus, it became 557. Then, by triggering the effects of Military Soul 1 and Military Soul 2, their health could be stacked up to 1157.

With the addition of equipment and defense bonuses, the combat effectiveness of these soldiers far exceeds that of ordinary first-stage awakened individuals.

The number is too small, only two thousand. He recalled that he had used the extra ten thousand slots for the Terracotta Warriors on the weakened Qin elite soldiers.

At that time, the orcs were about to launch a massive attack, and the pressure on Hangu Pass was too great. He needed to quickly amass enough troops, and making that choice at the time was not wrong.

However, seeing the true attributes of the Qin elite soldiers now is somewhat regrettable.

He sighed, pulled himself out of his thoughts, and continued scrolling down. The military formation effect in the barracks characteristics had also been upgraded.

【Qin Army Formation - Immovable as a Mountain (Upgraded)】

【...When the quantity is ≥8900, the lord and his subordinate lords gain +20 Constitution and +3000 Health.】

Lin Feng nodded, his gaze lingering on the string of numbers for a moment. The number was very realistic, which made him feel much more at ease.

Without lingering, he casually opened the Wonders interface.

The option to upgrade the Great Wall to a high-level wonder was now available, with only one special effect, but he stared at the screen for a long time.

【Effect Seven: Internal Circulation Ecosystem】

The area enclosed by the Great Wall will form an independent internal ecological system, unaffected by external climate, environment, and abnormal weather phenomena.

Neither desert sandstorms, icy plains, plague fog, nor corrosive miasma could penetrate the land covered by the Great Wall.

The soil, air, and temperature within the territory will be automatically maintained in a balanced state most suitable for human survival and development.

Ensure that agriculture, animal husbandry, production, and training within the territory are unaffected by the external environment and operate stably at all times.

Lin Feng finished reading and remained silent for a while.

That's amazing! With this special effect, the area enclosed by the Great Wall becomes a completely pristine land, even turning a desolate place like Canglang Plain into a paradise.

Agriculture, animal husbandry, and production can be self-sufficient. Not to mention besieging a city, we can even wear down the enemy in a protracted war.

More importantly, the Black Tide, a force capable of corroding the ecosystem, would likely run into a brick wall when it encounters this special effect; this effect is practically its natural counter.

But when his gaze fell on the upgrade conditions below, the smile on his lips froze slightly.

There is only one condition for the Great Wall to be upgraded to a high-level wonder: the heart of its ancient builders.

It is the heart of the ancient builders. The flying barracks need it, the Great Wall needs it, and he suspects that the upgrade of the Terracotta Army will also require it.

He had just made up his mind to give up the flying barracks, but seeing the special effects of the Great Wall made him hesitate again.

The images in Dragunov's memory are still vivid: wherever the Black Tide passed, the vegetation withered, the rivers turned black, and the earth cracked—it was an ecological destruction.

The advanced effects of the Great Wall can directly resist this erosion, turning the territory into an isolated island unaffected by external influences.

He stood there for a moment and then made a decision: the air force could wait, but the Great Wall had to be upgraded.

He reached out and opened the advanced wonders interface of the Terracotta Army, feeling somewhat conflicted.

I'm looking forward to its special effects, but I'm also afraid that those seven words will pop up again in the upgrade conditions, and then I can only stare blankly.

【Terracotta Army (Advanced)】

【Effect 1: Unwavering Morale】

The morale of the troops within the territory never collapses, and they are immune to fear and confusion effects.

【Effect Two: The Heroes Return to Tao】

The souls of the fallen soldiers will be enshrined in the Terracotta Army.

【Effect 3: Military Expansion Edict】

You can specify a unit type and increase its maximum troop strength by 10,000.

【Effect 4: Forged in Fire】 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

All weakened troop types were upgraded to normal form, and the Qin garrison troops were comprehensively strengthened.

【Effect 5: An Army of Ten Thousand Chariots】

The maximum number of Qin garrison soldiers has been increased to 400,000, and the maximum number of Qin elite soldiers has been increased to 100,000.

This number has reached the limit of the Qin elite troops and cannot be increased by any means.

【Effect Six: The Soul Returns to the Three Paths】

The Qin soldiers, transformed from the original inhabitants, can be resurrected three times immediately as long as their souls remain in the Terracotta Army. After the three times, they need to be retrained.

Awakened individuals who transform into Qin soldiers can only be resurrected once, and their level cap is locked at level ten after resurrection.

【Effect Seven: Imperial Decree to Return the Soul】

The souls of Qin soldiers who die in this plane automatically return to the Terracotta Army. If they die outside this plane, they need to be guided back to camp with a "Soul Guiding Token".

The Soul-Guiding Token is deeply bound to the souls of Qin soldiers, and its priority surpasses that of a low-tier artifact. Current number of Soul-Guiding Tokens: 2/2.

【Effect 8: Awakening of Destiny】

Lords can assist themselves and their subordinate lords in awakening their destiny at the core of their territory.

Note: If the territory already possesses a high-level wonder, this effect will change as unknown.
