"What did you say?"

Gu Xi was taken aback by Luna's words, and at that moment, Luna also conveyed the requirements to activate these three wharves.

[Wharf (Inactive): Activate by investing 30 units of wood and 15 units of stone. Once activated, it can be upgraded to a commercial wharf, allowing a temporary merchant caravan to appear at the wharf every week.]

[Note: If the wharf warehouse is present, the resources brought by the caravan double; if the wharf market is present, the number of caravans appearing simultaneously +1.]

[Note: The caravan may bring five different resources or equipment for trade.]

[Wharf (Inactive): Activate by investing 30 units of wood and 15 units of metal. Once activated, it can be upgraded to an armed wharf, where an armed warship (Level 5) can dock.]

[Note: If the wharf warehouse is present, the armed warship level +1; if the wharf market is present, the number of weapons the armed warship can equip +1.]

[Note: The armed warship can participate in one armed mission weekly, lasting between 1 to 3 days, with corresponding rewards upon its return.]

[Wharf (Inactive): Activate by investing 30 units of wood and 15 units of food. Once activated, it can be upgraded to an adventure wharf, where an adventure ship (Level 5) can dock.]

[Note: If the wharf warehouse is present, the adventure ship level +1; if the wharf market is present, the adventure ship's sailing time +50%.]

[Note: The adventure ship can participate in one adventure mission weekly, lasting between 1 to 3 days, with corresponding rewards upon its return.]

[Warning: The Pier District has been activated prematurely!]

[Warning: The Pier District has been destroyed, regional linkage has been triggered, eerie ships have appeared, activation methods for all wharves have changed, all wharves have mutated!]

[Warning…]

Seeing the instructions in front of him, Gu Xi understood the situation.

The previous explosion caused chaos among these three wharves, originally easily activated, now rendered uncertain.

Gu Xi continued looking down at the situation before him.

[Activation method for Pier District linkage: Subdue eerie ships.]

Subdue?

Gu Xi looked up at the Death Incarnation rushing toward the ship, his heart filled with surprise.

"Fall back..."

But it was already a step too late; the Death Incarnation crashed straight into the middle section of the eerie ship.

With that crash, the eerie ship was overturned on the spot, smashing heavily onto the water's surface.

"Forget it, take it down."

Seeing that this eerie ship was beyond saving, Gu Xi decided not to let the Death Incarnation remain in danger. After all, the wharf was right there, missing this activation didn't mean there wouldn't be another chance.

At worst, they would just reactivate it.

When Gu Xi changed his mind, the Death Incarnation hesitated briefly in the sky. However, he obeyed the order, transforming once again into a black mist, surging across the river surface.

With the black mist's momentum, the sailing ship that had overturned in the river was dragged to the other bank, smashing heavily against the dam.

With a loud crash, Gu Xi watched the dilapidated sailing ship break apart on the dam, beyond repair.

When the Death Incarnation returned to Gu Xi after destroying the eerie sailing ship, Gu Xi sighed.

"Luna, check if there are any new activation tasks. Luna, what's wrong with you?"

While arranging for Luna to check the wharf situation, Gu Xi noticed Luna's unusual expression.

Her face seemed caught between crying and laughing.

When Gu Xi asked, Luna looked up and said, "Master, the regional linkage activation task has been completed."

"Completed? That's impossible, wasn't it supposed to subdue the eerie ships?"

"Yes, it's showing as completed on my side." Luna nodded affirmatively.

Surprised by this situation, Gu Xi was at a loss, knowing that the task requirement was to subdue—breaking them also counted as subduing?

"Show me the situation."

Luna immediately shared the information she could access with Gu Xi.

[Destroyed eerie ship, Pier District joint mission completed, activation effect transforming…]

[Activation effect completed, three wharves activated, activation directions are Mysterious Pier, Haunted Pier, Evil Pier.]

[Pier District linkage effect produced, forming the Ghost Realm Pier District.]

Seeing the activation directions of these three wharves, Gu Xi was at a loss for words.

Could a normal person even come up with these activation directions?

Feeling a bit helpless, Gu Xi shook his head and checked the status of the three wharves.

Upon checking, Gu Xi's eyes widened.

[Building Name: Mysterious Pier

Level: Level 1 (Upgradeable)

Traits:

A mysterious ship (Level 5) will appear weekly at the pier.

After the mysterious ship appears, 5 to 30 mysterious beings, not exceeding Level 5, will emerge, attack, and occupy the pier, departing three days later. During occupation, 10% of resource output from Yalidu City will be looted daily.

By defeating all mysterious beings, besides reclaiming the looted resources, a large amount of experience and resources will be obtained, with a 10% chance to unlock a mysterious treasure chest for special equipment.

Note 1: Mysterious traits vary greatly, with combat power ranging from weak to strong. Please consider your own combat strength when attacking mysterious beings.

Note 2: As the wharf level increases, the level of the mysterious ship will also correspondingly increase. Please pay attention to controlling the ship level.]

[Building Name: Haunted Pier

Level: Level 1 (Upgradeable)

Traits:

A Ghost Ship (Level 5) will appear weekly at the pier.

Upon the appearance of a Ghost Ship, it will remain at the pier for three days, during which communication can occur with Ghost Sailors or the Ghost Captain. If you gain their approval within three days, they will return with some wealth after three days.

Note 1: Ghost Sailors are considered a kind of Undead, and as long as communication is handled well, it should go smoothly.

Note 2: The thinking of Ghost Sailors or the Ghost Captain may differ from normal people, and sometimes the things they bring back may result in losses.]

[Building Name: Evil Pier

Level: Level 1 (Upgradeable)

Traits:

An evil ship (Level 5, including but not limited to smuggling ships, slave ships, pirate ships) will appear weekly at the pier.

Upon the appearance of an evil ship, communication and trade can occur based on the ship's traits, or you can proactively attack the evil ship. However, each choice will influence the type of evil ship appearing the following week.

It may even affect the attitude of certain groups or forces toward you. If you do not intend to engage or conflict with them, please avoid interacting with evil ships.]

It was clear that the transformations of the three wharves in front of him were quite significant. They no longer had the fixed weekly income of the previous adventure wharf, commercial wharf, or armed wharf; everything had become bizarre and unpredictable.

Gu Xi was unsure whether this change was good or bad, but he was certain of one thing: that troops needed to be stationed near the wharf to keep watch.
