"Life here would be perfect if not for the greedy goblins".
'Ah, the goblin attack scene is coming'. He excitedly said inside his mind.
"But we have lost contact with the world for a long time and goblins haven't attacked for quite while. So, the village is truly in peace and good for living". Rookie guide lady continued, "That is our townhall, Goldmine, and Army camp". She pointed at several structure as she walked towards the thatched building behind the townhall. "And this is the builder's hut". She walked inside hut and Olivier followed behind her.
Olivier had believed that it would be stuffy inside the hut with three people but to his surprise, he walked inside a spacious area with a hall and three rooms. Various kinds of tools were displayed at one part of hall. A large couch was place in the corridor of the hall and person was laying on the couch looking at some papers. Olivier's eyes widened a little when he saw the person. A Dwarf.
Rookie Guide lady smiled at the dwarf and waved her hand. The dwarf adopted a decent sitting position and smile back pointing at the sofa.
"This is Bryan, our builder. He is master craftsman and builds thing really fast". She then pointed Olivier and said, "Bryan, this is our village chief".
'So the fabled craftsman of CoC was a dwarf. No wonder he looked a little shorter than other troops.' He thought inside his head.
As if electrocuted, Bryan leaped off the sofa and in one fluid motion pounded his right hand on his chest and got on his one knees and said in a loud voice, "Greetings chief. I am Bryan, 20th generation builder of our village. I will be at your command".
Olivier smiled awkwardly and helped Bryan on his feet. "My name is Olivier. It's a pleasure to meet you Bryan.You don't need to be so formal. You can treat me like you treat.... like you treat...". He was stuck awkwardly as he looked the rookie guide lady waiting for her to say her name but she just smiled innocently at him like it was normal. Olivier's started to heat up due to the embarrassment.
Noticing this, Bryan coughed and said with a helpless smiled, "Her name is Saya. Forgive her chief, she is a little playful. Let me guide you through the village"
Walking outside the village Bryan pointed to the goldmine and said, "That is our Goldmine, chief. It mines the gold from underground automatically. The gold is miraculous, it contains mysterious ability of creation which applies to all non-living things. They can be used to create buildings and upgrade it to the next level. Each upgrade will increase the stability and productibility of the structure. Chief, we need to build a Gold storage to stockpile resources".
As soon as Bryan said that, Olivier felt shocked causing him to pause his step resulting in Saya colliding with him from behind. Soo Soft....
But Olivier paid no heed to it as his mind was filled with a stockpile of information. Such as how to build the gold storage and other buildings. He realized that he had 1000 gold, 1000 elixir and 500 gems.
'Build the gold storage'. He said in his mind.
By some weird sorcery, he felt the 300 gold decrease and Bryan started to construct infront of him taking some materials and tools out of nowhere.
'10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1'. Olivier counted in his mind and by time he stopped counting, a new structure was infront of him. It looked like large container filled with gold only it was greater and about his neck-high.
As if nothing happened, Bryan returned to his side. "Now that we have a gold storage, we can store more gold. We need elixirs now. Elixirs are another form of resources that can be mined from underground. They contain some mysterious power that can give life and power to living beings. Chief, lets build a elixir collector. It can pump elixir from underground".
Olivier nodded and directed inwardly. 'Build elixir collector.'
The same thing happened again. Olivier knew that 150 elixir was deduced from 1000 elixir.
Bryan was set in motion again and in ten seconds, another structure was ready. A tall structure that looked a motor. Every now and then a purple substance would rise inside its transparent container that covered the motor like cup.
Before Bryan could say anything he said, "Build elixir storage."
In a few second, a round transparent dome was built which contained the same purple substance which he knew was elixir.
Bryan returned again but this time he looked a short of breath. With embarrassment, he said, "I am sorry, chief. Our chief haven't had a new chief in nearly thousands years and we lost contact with other village for a long time. With no chief to command and no war to defend the village, i got a little complacent and ...lazy. But now you are back chief, i will be back in shape in a few days. Untill then, chief you should hire a new builder for our village. Our village is built on leyline, we builder have the ability to change gold into materials and build structure using those materials. Having another builder will be a great help and keep going things simultaneously".
Olivier nodded and he instructed inside his mind. He felt 250 gems deducted and a new builder's hut appeared beside the old one. From inside the new hut, another dwarf walked out. He looked a lot more energetic and had well defined body and muscles. Olivier could notice Bryan face heating up.
As if by instinct he arrived before Olivier and performed the same motion as Bryan swiftly and on one knee, said in a boisterous voice. "I am Erwin. I am the 21st generation builder of our village. I am at your command chief."
Olivier helped him up. "Call me Olivier. I am the new chief."
"Chief Olivier". He excitedly called out and looked at Bryan as if taunting him. 'Chief Olivier favors me just by my handsome looks and allowed me to call him by name. wait untill these bad boys starts working'. He flexed his biceps a little.
He then looked around the village. And looked again as if searching for something. He then asked, "Chief Olivier, where is the canon? What if those greedy goblin attack and loot our village?"
Bryan also promptly added. "Chief although we haven't been attacked by the goblins in a thousand years. We should keep our village battle ready just incase we suddenly get in contact with other villages now that we have a new chief. We should build a canon just in case".
Olivier felt that it was a waste of gold but he built one just in case. Another 250 gold gone just like that.
Another 10 seconds and a canon was ready. The canon was built by Erwin this time.
Erwin returned and looked at the newly built canon and was satisfied especially looking at the arm flexing biceps drawn at the canon stand. This was likely Erwin's personal logo.
'This suits him.'
"Chief we need a army barrack to train new soldiers. We have an Army camp but we do not have an army".
Olivier gave a mental command and 10 seconds later a new army barrack was ready. A one floored building with two crossed swords on the roof.
As if by instinct, he knew once again how to train the soldiers, the elixir it cost and time it took.
To train a barbarian, it will cost 15 elixir and it took 200 seconds each to train a new barbarian. He was surprised. The time it took to train a new soldier was ten times longer than in the game.
'Whatever. The barracks will have to create new life and turn it into soldier. So, I think it's okay'.
About an hour later, the camp was filled with barbarians. Unlike in the game, they were not running around the camp half-naked, they were sitting around the campfire in a silent manner. Nineteen barbarians were sitting around on the ground in an U-shaped and one barbarian that looked bigger and stronger than the rest was standing in front of the group like a leader. Four tents were build around the bonfire, probably the sleeping quarters for the army. One tent for a group a five.
Olivier smiled slightly. 'Such a well trained army'.
At this Saya arrived before him and smilingly said, "Chief, we now have a resource, defense and an army of strong troops. We are ready to head into battle. Our each battle will be glorious enough to be recorded in history. Chief how shall we be known in the history?"
My goal in this life is to leave behind my name and a legacy of my own. I don't know if i can accomplish it in the outside world with my poor talent but my legacy will be here, this village will be my legacy, the legacy of Olivier Martin, the chief.
"The Legacy". He smiled
