Newly arrived newbie Lords have very limited construction options.
The small houses Su Wu built for the rabbit tribe using energy points are basically the only things he can build.
The other item is wooden fences used for defense.
Besides these two, unlocking more buildings requires obtaining building blueprints.
After a quick glance at the options, Su Wu's attention focused on the watchtower blueprint.
Compared to raw resources, this is what he needs most at the moment.
"Open the Level-3 treasure chest."
[Congratulations, you have obtained the watchtower blueprint.]
[Congratulations, you have obtained 5,000 energy points.]
[Congratulations, you have obtained 3,000 units of wood.]
[Congratulations, you have obtained 3,000 units of stone.]
[Congratulations, you have obtained 10 Prestige Points.]
[Congratulations, you have unlocked the watchtower.]
[Watchtower]
[Effect: Once built, grants vision over a 1,000-meter diameter area centered on the watchtower.]
[Build requirements: 1,000 energy points, 500 units of wood.]
[Build time: 60 minutes.]
"Not bad."
Matching the attributes with his memory, Su Wu nodded with satisfaction.
Having watchtowers greatly speeds up exploration.
Not everyone has Cang Yue's massive perception range.
For the high-tier water elementals clearing monsters, most of their time is wasted searching.
With watchtowers, building one in a planned position means Su Wu can control about 80% of the area's details.
High-tier water elementals can then strike precisely, greatly speeding up monster clearing.
Once monsters are cleared, those areas with watchtowers will automatically be marked as Su Wu's territory—a double win.
...
"Build the watchtower."
[Order accepted, construction started.]
[Detected building construction, Paradise Creation triggered, accelerating building speed.]
[Watchtower construction successful, automatically deducting 1,000 energy points and 500 units of wood.]
After clearing the nest, Su Wu used spatial teleportation and circled his territory.
After several minutes' effort, he constructed eight watchtowers arranged as:
■■■
■□■
■■■
With watchtowers, Su Wu quickly grasped the approximate situation around his territory.
Besides the medium monster nest he cleared, the surrounding monsters are mostly normal or elite level.
Their strength is typical, with no abnormal "strange monsters" incidents.
After sending high-tier water elementals to clear monsters, Su Wu returned to the base with Cang Yue.
With more hands available, he did not plan to let Cang Yue join monster clearing.
Although Cang Yue could quickly clear monsters nearby or further, Su Wu believed sending her to other tasks would yield greater returns.

[Chat Channel]
Wang Qiang: "Awesome Alliance recruiting! No strength requirement to join, but members must sign contracts fully obeying the leader's orders!"
Wang Qiang: "Interested? PM 'Wang Jun' (Awesome Alliance Window 1), 'Lei Yangyun' (Window 2), ... 'Wu Yu' (Window 30). I'll record the list, the earlier you join, the better your future benefits!"
Slacker: "Big bro Wang Qiang, maybe add a strength threshold?"
Civilized Person: "Agree with the above. Even if the alliance has the top two newbie assessment winners, this demand is too arrogant."
Civilized Person: "Newbie Lord Assessment only reflects current strength and future potential."
Civilized Person: "History has examples of low assessment scorers who later surpassed others through luck."
Civilized Person: "But Wang Qiang's demand is too harsh. Signing means total obedience with no chance of rebellion despite future gains."
Fun Guy: "LOL, seriously? Anyone dumb enough to join this Awesome Alliance? They want to unify Dawn Forest in a week, haha."
Old Xu: "Conditions are too harsh, I can't accept."
...
"Pfft, so much fuss."
In the base, Wang Qiang noticed the criticisms in the chat channel but was unconcerned.
Some refuse to join due to the harsh terms, fearing loss of freedom;
others want to avoid death or losing lord status, seeking protection by joining a strong faction.
After reposting recruitment info in the chat, Wang Qiang started commanding his subordinates to be active there.
Early development?
Not needed at all!
After seven days when Su Wu unifies Dawn Forest, these contributors can lie down and reap more resources!
