Chapter 199: Chapter 177: Triple Ecosystem, Prototype of the Three Realms

DING! Super Ecological Technology · Triple Ecosystem activated. Your territory can now form three independent ecosystems, possess three independent sub-ecological networks, and is permitted to have three Eco Trees!

DING! The Triple Ecosystems operate independently but can also support one another, forming a triple-helix structure for greater stability, jointly sustaining the territory’s ecosystem!

DING! Please designate the ecological domains for the Triple Ecosystem!

After Wang Yi used the Technology Scroll, the Territory Map automatically popped up before him. He could use this map to designate the ecological domains for the Triple Ecosystem.

’A Triple Ecosystem... they operate independently but can also support one another, a triple-helix structure... sounds pretty good! As for the ecological domains... aren’t they already naturally divided? One for the surface territory, one for the first underground level, and one for the second underground level. Perfect!’

Wang Yi quickly designated the ecological domains on the Territory Map. The territory panel then updated, and the Territory Ecosystem Panel automatically appeared before him.

Territory Ecosystem Panel

First Ecosystem: Huaguo Mountain Ecosystem

Eco-Dominator: Flower Fruit Tree (Not yet awakened)

Ecosystem Level: Small (Evolution Progress 46%)

Ecological Domain: A radius of one hundred li

Ecological Network: Small, currently connected to four people

Dominator Ability: [Flowers and Fruit Flourishing] - Within the territory, flowers are always in bloom and fresh fruit is perpetually available.

Second Ecosystem: Not yet activated, requires an Eco Tree.

Third Ecosystem: Not yet activated, requires an Eco Tree.

Note 1: After the ecosystem undergoes Evolution, the Eco Tree will transform and awaken an Eco Skill.

Note 2: After the ecosystem undergoes three Evolutions, the Eco-Dominator will awaken. It will become independent of the ecosystem, possess a Divine consciousness, and be eternally loyal to the lord of the territory.

Note 3: Each time the ecosystem undergoes Evolution, there is a small chance for an Earth Deity Beast to be naturally born, and a small chance for an Earth Deity Beast to evolve!

’So it needs more Eco Trees... It turns out an Eco-Dominator is formed from the transformation of an Eco Tree. Does that mean Jiya was originally an Eco Tree, and she only became independent after her ecosystem evolved? But now Jiya’s ecosystem has been rolled back. I wonder if a new Eco Tree will appear...’

Wang Yi’s brow furrowed slightly.

To activate the Second and Third Ecosystems, he would need two more Eco-Tree Species, and Eco-Tree Species were not easy to come by.

You could probably get one by killing an Earth Deity, but they were bound upon acquisition. They couldn’t be traded or bought; you had to get them yourself.

But Wang Yi could no longer get an Eco-Tree Species from killing Earth Deities in Jiya’s ecosystem. Did he have to go to other ecological worlds to kill Earth Deities for one?

’There must be other ways to get an Eco-Tree Species. Or maybe, if I use a Forged Identity to go back to the World of Suffering No. 356 and kill an Earth Deity, I could get one easily. It’s worth a try...’

Wang Yi pondered silently.

A moment later, Wang Yi found an empty plot of land east of Eggshell Square and built the Exile Court.

The Exile Court was enormous, like a divine tribunal. It was Dark Gold in color, emitted a faint glow, stood over a hundred meters tall, and occupied a full square kilometer of land.

However, the court was actually open-air. It was surrounded by high walls with spires, and in the center was the court plaza, or rather, the "Exile Plaza."

By entering the plaza, Wang Yi could activate the court’s functions.

After studying it for a moment, he shook his head. ’It’s a shame. You can only be exiled after being sentenced. Otherwise, this court could be used as a free Teleportation Array. The shortest sentence is still one day... Wait a minute, could I exile myself and then pardon myself?’

An idea struck Wang Yi. He brought up the Exile Court’s management panel, judged himself, and gave himself a one-day sentence.

The process went off without a hitch.

Wang Yi successfully received a one-day sentence.

Now that he had a sentence, he could be exiled.

Wang Yi certainly wasn’t going to force a class change on himself. He immediately initiated his self-exile, setting the destination as Huangni Village.

The next moment, Wang Yi’s figure vanished in a flash of white light. He left the Exile Court and arrived in Huangni Village in an instant, looking up to see Gegeda building an Eggshell House. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

’It actually works!’

Delighted, Wang Yi once again pulled up the Exile Court’s management panel and pardoned himself. His sentence immediately vanished.

’It really is a free teleport. Not bad at all!’

Delighted, Wang Yi thought to himself that the Exile Court’s exile function was just a cover; its true purpose was teleportation. He could teleport his subordinates or himself. It just required a few panel operations, which didn’t take much effort at all.

"Gegeda!"

Wang Yi had come here specifically to find Gegeda.

He took out the [Earth Deity Beast Rebirth Scroll] and called out, "I’ve got something good for you!"

Gegeda was a diligent Territory Guardian Beast. Aside from its massive appetite, it had no real flaws.

It ate two tons of small yellow croakers every day, but it was an incredibly hard worker. It had built all the Eggshell Houses in Eggshell Village, making it the village’s number one laborer, not far behind the road-building maniac, the Road Repair Snail.

If there were an election for the "Top Ten Model Workers of Eggshell Village," Wang Yi would definitely cast a vote for it.

In fact, Wang Yi had tried feeding Gegeda a Fasting Pill.

It was claimed that a single Fasting Pill would allow a person to go without food or water for a month, but that only applied to normal adults. When Gegeda ate one, it couldn’t even last an hour before it got hungry again.

A moment later, after Wang Yi used the Earth Deity Beast Rebirth Scroll on it, Gegeda turned into a large egg.

The eggshell was green, at first as tender as a young leaf. It quickly changed, becoming like tree bark. After about ten more minutes, the eggshell shattered.

Gegeda completed its rebirth. It burst out of the shell, now standing eight meters tall. Its wings and talons gleamed with a metallic luster. The two small, short arms on its chest had grown longer and sturdier, resembling the forelimbs of a Monster. Its legs and talons were even more exaggeratedly thick, and when it stood on the ground, they looked like two ancient trees with gnarled roots.

Wang Yi hurriedly checked its information panel.

====

Name: Gegeda

Race: Eco-Geist Beast (Combat Chicken +8, Variant)

Ecological Tier: Metamorphosis

Description: The Territory Guardian Beast Gegeda has a unique Physique. Upon its rebirth as an Earth Deity Beast, it mutated, becoming a variant Eco-Geist Beast. It possesses the traits of a Territory Guardian Beast, an Eco-Geist Beast, and an Eco-Warrior.

Guardian Beast Trait: Gegeda possesses an extremely strong sense of territory and will spontaneously patrol its domain, drive out enemies, and perform similar actions.

Earth Deity Beast Trait: Gegeda can link to the territory’s ecosystem to obtain a continuous supply of the Power of Nature. Within the ecological cycle, it exhibits physical Undying properties or intermittent resurrection.

Natural Warrior Trait: Gegeda has autonomously activated the Professional Traits of a Natural Warrior. It can perfectly utilize Martial Arts such as the ground-laying saber and the Eighteen Nao. Its Physique will slowly undergo adaptive Evolution to better use its Martial Arts techniques.

Retained Skill 1: [Ancestral Bloodline] +4

Retained Skill 2: [Nesting] +4

Eco Skill: [Ecological House]. Gegeda can create Ecological Houses that are stronger than ordinary Eggshell Houses. Ecological Houses have plant-like growth characteristics, rooting themselves in the earth to become Solid and sturdy. They are warm in the winter and cool in the summer, can make ecological adjustments based on their occupants to be more suitable for living, and are excellent animal nests.

Note 1: The Ecological Tier of an Eco-Geist Beast represents its degree of deep integration with the ecosystem, not its combat power level. Generally, a Metamorphosis Body will have one Eco Skill, a Spirit Transformation Body will have two Eco Skills, and a King body will have three skills.

Note 2: Having transformed from a Territory Guardian Beast into a unique Eco-Geist Beast, Gegeda has linked with the Huaguo Mountain ecosystem. Its Physique has undergone a massive change. From now on, it will sustain itself through photosynthesis and no longer requires food or drink. It cannot leave the ecological domain.

Note 3: As the Huaguo Mountain Eco-Geist Beast, Gegeda is linked to the ecological network and is subject to the Eco-Dominator’s control.

Note 4: Gegeda has introduced some ancient bloodline genes to the Huaguo Mountain ecosystem. These genes will be gradually analyzed by the ecosystem and eventually enter the ecological cycle, enriching its biodiversity.

’Looks like Gegeda has gotten quite a bit stronger. At the very least, it’s connected to the ecosystem and has become immortal. And the Ecological House is very interesting...’

Wang Yi nodded, thinking to himself that this was quite good.

Gegeda was currently crying out, "GEGEDA!" It looked at its own wings and feet, seeming rather excited, and soon bowed low to Wang Yi in a salute.

After its two small, short arms grew longer, it could now perform a bowing gesture similar to a human’s.

"No need for formalities. Get back to work!"

Wang Yi waved his hand. He was more or less done with the territory’s ecosystem. Next up was building the Hundred Skills Academy.

In Wang Yi’s eyes, the Hundred Skills Academy was a large-scale technical school that could train a great number of skilled personnel for the territory’s basic infrastructure.

Coincidentally, Huangni Village also needed a school, so building the Hundred Skills Academy here was fitting.

A moment later, the building complex of the Hundred Skills Academy rose from the ground east of Huangni Village. Buildings appeared one after another along the terrain—pavilions, towers, courtyards, grand halls, and more. The architecture was ornate and classical, with an ancient charm. Stone-paved paths automatically appeared, flowers and trees sprouted between the buildings, and ponds and streams dotted the landscape. The entire complex resembled a large, traditional garden.

DING! Congratulations on constructing the large-scale building, the Hundred Skills Academy. You have automatically been appointed its dean. You can delegate the deanship to someone else in the Hundred Skills Academy’s information panel to facilitate territory management.

DING! You have been gifted one professional instructor for each of 100 life professions, including farmer, carter, blacksmith, carpenter, Stonemason, Tiler, tailor, chef, painter, and musician. All professional instructors are in position. The Hundred Skills Academy’s functions are fully unlocked.

DING! Notice: The professional instructors of the Hundred Skills Academy possess complete personality settings, independent thought, and free Will. They can teach residents of the territory life skills such as sericulture, tea farming, blacksmithing, casting, fishing, and weaving. Students who master a complete set of Professional Skills can undergo a professional class change!

DING! Notice: All residents of the territory may learn one life skill for free at the Hundred Skills Academy. Learning additional skills requires payment of a fee. This fee will be recorded as academy income and automatically distributed to the professional instructors as salary...

Along with the system notifications, figures swiftly appeared within the Hundred Skills Academy. These were, of course, the professional instructors.

Wang Yi checked the Hundred Skills Academy’s management panel and discovered that all the instructors had names. For example, the blacksmith instructor was named King’s Hammer, the carpenter instructor was named Lv Jue, the tailor instructor was named Ye Jian, the Stonemason instructor was named Stone Chisel, and the butcher instructor was named butcher’s knife, and so on.

Their professions were also incredibly diverse, even including instructors for bath-scrubbing, hairdressing, cleaning, and caregiving...

’Amazing! These one hundred professional instructors have instantly filled 100 vacant industries!’

Wang Yi was very satisfied. Strictly speaking, his territory currently had no one with a life profession. People like Guangkun could farm and were good at it, but they were merely skilled amateurs. Their technical level was definitely a far cry from a professional’s.

Continuing to study the Hundred Skills Academy’s information panel, Wang Yi discovered that after being built, the academy could also recruit instructors!

People with life skills could be recruited into the Hundred Skills Academy to become professional instructors, allowing them to teach their skills to others. This was equivalent to having the ability to create Skill Books.

Wang Yi nodded. ’This is great,’ he thought. ’The Hundred Skills Academy truly lives up to its name as a high-level building. I need to discuss this with Jelena and the others to make use of it as soon as possible and get the ambitious residents enrolled quickly...’
