Alright, listen up you peasants. Let's talk about loot! (TL note: y-yes, milord!!)"Void Essence Stones" are like the VIP version of "Void Crystals" – super important for any aspiring overlord, but they play different roles.Think of "Void Crystals" as cold, hard cash. You can trade 'em, use 'em to summon heroes or troops, or patch up your buildings."Void Essence Stones," on the other hand? They're your personal, non-transferable experience points. Bound to your soul, baby. You need these bad boys to level up yourself, your territory, your heroes, your buildings... everything!For your average Joe Schmo overlord, both are equally precious. But for those silver-spoon-fed rich kids from big families? "Void Essence Stones" are their goddamn kryptonite. No amount of daddy's money can buy you levels. That's why in this era of Sovereigns, raw talent often trumps a fancy pedigree."Well, unless you're a cheater like me.. EHEHEH," Wu Chi chuckled to himself, smug as hell, and pulled up his [Territory] panel.[Territory]Owner: Wu ChiLevel: 1 (0/10)Area: 200 square metersBuildings:Hut (Lv.1)Fence (Lv.1)Steel-Armor Shed (Lv.1)Fireblast Tower (Lv.1)Fart Tower (Lv.1)Residents: 1Territory Trait: [Sovereign's Ascent]Wu Chi didn't hesitate and started feeding his Void Essence Stones into the panel.0/10 → 10/10!Level Up Successful!Area: 200 square meters → 500 square meters!The moment the panel updated, the territory silently expanded outward. The grey mist recoiled, revealing more barren land and a few ugly, lumpy boulders. Wu Chi glanced back and nodded in satisfaction. With more than double the space, plopping down three new buildings would be a breeze."Still got 37 Essence Stones left... I'll hang onto them for now," he mused."No rush."His eyes then fell on the fence. It now only enclosed the area around the hut, not the entire territory.Switching into "Overlord Vision," he grabbed the two defensive towers and plopped them down on two far corners outside the fence. The barracks got moved to another side. Instantly, the area inside the fence felt spacious again. This ability to rearrange buildings on the fly was one of the nifty perks granted by the Territory Core.Now, for the new toys. He pulled out the three building models, scanned the area, and made his placements:The [Toilet] went in a corner near the fence. [Priority number one, am I right?]The [Farmland] and [Well] were placed inside the fence, near the hut.The models grew to full size in an instant:A neatly plowed patch of fertile soil.An old-fashioned draw-well.And a surprisingly modern-looking outhouse.[...] [Farmland] (+)[...] [Toilet] (+)[...] [Well] (+)No surprise here – the [Mechanical Core]'s "Enhance" button was glowing again."Time to cheat again!" Wu Chi's face lit up, though he couldn't help a silent prayer."Please, for the love of all that's holy, don't give me another abomination like that godforsaken Fart Tower."Just then, Lin Daiyu walked over. Having been summoned, she had the inherent knowledge to understand the territory's expansion and wasn't shocked."Young Master, are you encountering difficulties?" she asked softly, eager to help."It's nothing," Wu Chi replied, his focus returning. He tapped the three plus signs without delay.Whoosh!A dazzling five-colored light enveloped the three buildings. Moments later, the light faded, revealing their dramatically transformed states:The fertile soil had turned snow-white, shimmering with a faint phosphorescent glow.The well had expanded several times over, now looking like a brimming pool rather than a simple draw-well.The toilet had gotten a serious upgrade, looking downright luxurious."Judging by the looks, these seem... promising?"Wu Chi's hope surged as he hurriedly checked their new stats.[Spirit Field]Type: FarmlandLevel: 1 (0/200)Function: PlantingTrait: Spirit Soil (Lv.1, Yield x1000%)Area: 100 square metersDescription: Premium spirit fields used by cultivators to grow spirit rice. Works even better paired with the ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) 'Spirit Rain Technique'."Hell yeah! A Spirit Field! With 10x yield?!" Wu Chi's eyes sparkled. He let out a sigh of relief."Thank goodness. My cheat code seems to be working properly today!"For overlords, magical farmland wasn't unheard of, but a Level 1 field with a 10x yield multiplier? That was top-tier stuff. Major win!Feeling better, he checked the second building.[Moonwell]Type: WellLevel: 1 (0/200)Function: Moonfrost Nectar (Condenses Moonfrost Nectar each night)Trait: Moon's Blessing (Lv.1, Instantly restores a portion of Stamina, Instantly restores a portion of Energy, Possesses a degree of healing capability.)Storage: 10/10 (Nightly Regeneration: 1/Night)Description: A secret treasure of the Silvermoon Elves, bestowed with the blessings of the Moon Goddess. Possesses incredible power."Excellent! Another fantastic item!" Wu Chi's smile widened. A common well turned into an elven secret treasure? That's what I call a serious upgrade. We're officially taking off!Brimming with anticipation, he turned to the third and final building's stats...
