nAs the blinding light dissipated, Jerry slowly opened his eyes.

n

n

n“Eh? This is…?”

n

n

n

n

nWhat entered his eyes was a very ancient room. At the same time, waves of memories appeared in Jerry’s mind.

n

n

nFirst was his identity, the young city lord of Sky City, also the current city lord.

n

n

nIn his memories, the old city lord had passed away some time ago and passed the position of city lord to him who had been the young city lord.

n

n

nEveryone began their time in the Empire Era in this way, causing many people to ridicule it, saying it was probably the template of a modern novel in which the main character transmigrated into another time and place after the Dad-in-name died!

n

n

n

n

nAlthough it was called Sky City, a powerful and awesome name, in fact, Sky City was just a small city around here. It was thus named because Jerry’s father, the old city lord, liked the sky.

n

n

nAs for the region, Jerry only knew that this place was called Qingzhou.

n

n

nQingzhou was very big! There were many small cities in Qinzhou! Of course, there were also powerful people who had created their own kingdoms.

n

n

nThey must occupy more than ten cities to be qualified to establish their own kingdoms.

n

n

n

n

nIf someone conquered the entire Qingzhou, he or she would be able to establish a great empire!

n

n

nHowever, just the size of Qingzhou alone was perhaps even bigger than the entire United States! Jerry knew this fact from the information stored in his memory.

n

n

nIt was enough to see how big the entire Empire Era was! Many people all over the world had entered this place, but few of them had met each other.

n

n

nOf course, this was also because people could not stay in the Empire Era for long.

n

n

nAfter all, if a city was destroyed, the city lord would exit the Empire Era permanently!

n

n

nAnd this world was far crueler than anyone had imagined. Although most of the people entered it as if it was just a game, they must fight for territory and develop their own forces, therefore, war was a daily occurrence.

n

n

n

n

nMost of the new comers would had their cities swallowed by other cities in a few year.

n

n

n“Interface!”

n

n

nJerry waved his hand and a game interface appeared in front of him.

n

n

nThere was his own information and Sky City’s information on it.

n

n

nThis was what he learned from his memory.

n

n

nHe skipped over his own information and looked at Sky City’s information.

n

n

n Faction : Sky City

n

n

n Level : small city

n

n

n

n

n Population : about 100,000

n

n

n Army : 2,000 infantrymen, 500 archers, 500 cavalrymen, total: 3,000

n

n

n Gold and silver : 1,200 units of gold.

n

n

nThis was the general information about his city. Looking at the interface, Jerry nodded to himself.

n

n

n“Not a bad start!”

n

n

nBecause compared to the information that others posted on the Internet, his city was top-notch.

n

n

nA small city with a population of 100,000 was not bad!

n

n

nThe population of a small city usually ranged from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands.

n

n

nAs for a middle city, it usually had a population of more than 300,000! There were even large cities with a population over a million!

n

n

nSuch cities were rarely seen. It was said that only the capital of some kingdoms would have such a population.

n

n

nThree thousand troops, five hundred archers, and five hundred cavalrymen. This was a pleasant surprise.

n

n

nMost people would be lucky if they had a few thousand infantrymen.

n

n

nAs for the precious cavalrymen and archers, they were extremely rare.

n

n

n

n

nIt was a good start, but Jerry needed to think about how he should develop the city.

n

n

nThis world had its rules and restrictions. Some people had tried to develop high-tech weapons in this world but failed.

n

n

nAt most, they could make black gunpowder, but when used to attack cities, its power was not satisfactory

n

n

nOther than that, he could develop technologies to improve the citizens’ daily life.

n

n

nBut such things had long been spread throughout this world.

n

n

nOne had to know that it had been a hundred years since Earth people first landed the place. The predecessors had long made things that could be made.

n

n

nIt was said that few people from Earth had met each other in this world; even if they had, they wouldn’t even know if they were a native or an earthling.

n

n

nHowever, in the past hundred years, 99.9% of the people wouldn’t be able to hold on for more than a few years. After a few years of gaming experience, they would be forced to retreat from the world.

n

n

nHowever, the things that they brought into this world had stayed and been spread all over this world. At least, that was the case in most places.

n

n

nTherefore, it was impossible to rely on the advanced technologies and advanced thinking of modern people to obtain some sort of cheat-like lead.

n

n

n“Well, what should I do?”

n

n

nJerry was helpless. He was just an ordinary person. Was it only a City Lord game for him?

n

n

nIn the end, he would be destroyed by other cities, and then he would exit from the Empire Era.

n

n

nHowever, as a transmigrator, Jerry felt that this game was not so simple. How could it be so simple? After all, it was something like the creation of a god!

n

n

nIf he were to withdraw just like that, it would be his loss.

n

n

n“Is there no other way?”

n

n

nJerry sat on the ground, deep in thought.

n

n

n“Is it so hard to cut corners?”

n

n

n“Will I spend a few years here just like others?”

n

n

n“After a few years, my city be exterminated, and then I’ll leave this world.”

n

n

n“Go back to that boring world?”

n

n

nJerry frowned.

n

n

nHe wanted to smoke a cigarette.

n

n

nUnfortunately, there was no such thing as cigarettes here.

n

n

nPerhaps there would be some elsewhere.

n

n

nBut at least there weren’t any now.

n

n

nJerry was extremely vexed.

n

n

nHe really didn’t want to go back.

n

n

nHe wanted to do something big here!

n

n

nHe might not be able to build a super-large invincible empire, but at the very least, he wanted to build a small kingdom with more than a dozen cities on its territory.

n

n

nBut, how could he achieve that by himself?

n

n

nJerry’s head was about to explode from thinking, but he couldn’t think of a plan.

n

n

n“Will I go on just like this?”

n

n

n“As a transmigrator, don’t I have any privileges?”

n

n

nJerry smiled bitterly.

n

n

nHe wanted to curse this world.

n

n

nIf I can’t be as invincible as other transmigrators, why would you let me transmigrate to this world?

n

n

nWhere’s my cheat?

n

n

nFuck!

n

n

nAt this moment, a strange fluctuation suddenly appeared in Jerry’s mind.

n

n

nJerry was shocked because a weird-looking book appeared in front of him!

n

n

nThe virtual book was like a panel, but Jerry could touch it!

n

n

nAnd on it, there were a few big words.

n

n

nThe Eternal Roster!

n

n

nThe name of the book was called the Eternal Roster!
