Chapter 242 242
Chapter 242. Farming Is More Suitable For Me.
The same event was held in every human town. Almost all of Char's friends list were the big bosses at the top of the forum, and most players had to look up to them.
However, in reality, most of them were looking up to Char.
For example, the time when the gold coins were stolen some time ago, and this time, a large number of Elves and Half-elves were secretly taken out of the city in various ways.
This was not just looking up to him, this was simply kneeling in front of him!
This operation was amazing, and they were all amazed that the game could be played this way.
At the same time, Char did not ask them to cut ties or make their stand clear, nor did she force them to join Elfheim.
He even went to the sect to ask if she had anything to do with this, which made the stinky seal feel wronged.
Ninja Blade had guessed correctly. Char did not plan to rely on the players.
This was not a player, this was playing with fire.
Unlike Blosoro's mercenaries, players were mercenaries.
This meant that as long as the chips were big enough, they would dare to betray.
As long as they did not lose any experience, they could kill the commander NPC with a brick and split the loot.
They could turn on us under any circumstances, and their actions were unpredictable.
Three months of in-game time was too short, it was not enough for many people to develop a sense of belonging. Therefore, in this stage of the war, there were no guardians or invaders. There was no standpoint, and the players only pursued benefits.
Thus, he wanted to drag this on until the United Holy Kingdom ran out of money and items to start a war.
Why did they get so many rewards?
To put it bluntly, it was the system's recognition.
The actions of the natives, the system's assessment of the scale of the action, the players-intervention to push things forward, commonly known as causing trouble, then the system will measure the benefits that the players should get.
Events were born from such a process, and having lived 177 rounds, Char was well aware of it.
Among them, only the experience was provided by the system. The other materials, such as materials and gold coins, were all paid out of the United Holy Kingdom's own pocket. The stingy system would not give you a single copper.
Even his experience was based on evidence and not something that appeared out of thin air.
Why would players gain a lot of experience after training?
He did not know how to do it, he learned it after experiencing it, so it became experience.
The so-called experience and training were mostly like this.
This was also the reason why Char could use the experience gained from sparring with the 500 Flame Guards to level up as a swordsman while giving a discount to the other classes. It was because this was not the same type of experience.
As such, sooner or later, the United Holy Kingdom would not even be able to provide any experience points, because they had run out of things to teach the players and had nothing else to do.
Their actions were undoubtedly to speed up the players' leveling, allowing them to enter the battlefield as soon as possible. Once this kind of snowball-like method started to work, it was bound to be like a rolling rock falling down the mountain, unstoppable.
However, if they were controlled or slightly obstructed, they would most likely choose a more comfortable game style.
Furthermore, if they could initiate an event, would Char not?
Three days after the maintenance.
In Elfheim, Grinland.
The recall operation has recalled a total of 187 people. 66 people are level 70 and above, and 32 people are master-level people with life skills above level 8. To a certain extent, I've taken back the power of two joint armies from under the eyes of the United Holy Kingdom. Damn it, Elfheim has not had a single person as talented as an army in the past two years."
Char mumbled to herself as he looked at the report. He then crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it into the bin, rubbing he face hard.
He never thought that one day, he would have to sit in the office and plan strategies.
He would rather go back to the 177th round and face Zin'rokh than do these brainless things.
Fortunately, things were almost done.
"You've worked hard."
At some point, Mitsuya had appeared by the window. The goddess was sitting on the wide windowsill. The lower hem of her plain-colored dress was open, revealing her long, slender legs that swayed back and forth.
Ever since she had dealt with the Holy Spirit of Order, she had been in this state, only disappearing from time to time.
According to her, this state was actually energy saving mode, so she did not plan to go back for a while.
This was very annoying.
Sometimes, Char had to be wary of such a big human lightbulb even if he wanted to be intimate with her, which made her wonder if he was done.
What was even more terrifying was that sometimes, when you opened your eyes in the middle of the night, you would see a pale woman sitting at the table in the dark room, supporting her head with her hands and looking at you.
"Bang"
The office door was knocked open, and the stinky seal barged in.
"Char! Our people are all here!"
"Close the door."
"Oh, oh!"
She closed the door, locked it from the inside, and came over with a smile. She gently flipped over the table and was about to burrow into his arms when Char hurriedly pushed her away.
"Be serious, I'm busy with work!"
"But there's only the two of us here!"
Char glanced at Mitsuya discreetly, and the latter looked back at him curiously without any intention of avoiding him.
You motherf*cker!
Forget it!
Char sighed and dragged Apple Pie out.
"Let's go. I'll take you to receive a mission, so you won't be anxious waiting."
"Ah? Oh..."
Apple Pie pouted, looking very unhappy.
Ferlin town was located in the Northwest of Grinland, and it was the closest place to the Red Earth Grassland.
Char was not someone who liked to start an invasion.
The education he had received since he was young and the three values he had shaped all told him one thing.
The reason why people could survive was because of the heavens, and the reason why people could not survive was because of the heavens.
The reason why humans had two pairs of hands was to create wealth and value, not to kill and plunder. The reason why violent explorers could oppress others in a grandiose manner was because they were busy forging their fists while others were creating wealth.
Therefore, he would not start military preparations in advance like the United Holy Kingdom. What Elfheim lacked the most was population, and even if he returned the 1.5 billion gold coins, they would not be able to support such a huge turmoil.
What he wanted to do was farm.
When things could not be solved, they could be used to farm.
All the problems turned to farming.
'Farming is more suitable for me.'
Char stood at the northernmost part of Ferlin town, which was a rare and desolate place. It did not even look like the territory of the Elves. The soil and weeds were dyed a faint red, but it didn't give people any warmth, more like blood.
The Apple Pie had revealed to him a number-the total number of players in "Fantasy World" had exceeded 100000. Because it was a high-end consumption, the game cabin was not yet common. Even so, this was a terrifying number. Among them, at least 40000 people had been recruited by the United Holy Kingdom as combat power.
A combat power that could not be killed by 40000 and would improve rapidly was simply unimaginable.
Behind him, there were more than 1000 players from Ghost and Flame Knot.
This did look very comical, not even like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
At this time, the spokesperson that Isian had sent, Duke Saxson, who was now the governor, cleared his throat and began an impassioned speech.
As soon as the Duke finished speaking, every player present received a quest.
[You have received a large-scale material collection mission, Northern Development.]
[Northern Development: The current resource pool is as follows...]
[Leather 0/100000, metal 0/100000, meat 0/100000, energy 0/10000.]
[Basic experience reward: 60,000,000. Increases by 100% for every target completed. Reputation points and equipment rewards can be exchanged based on personal contribution points.]
After the mission announcement, everyone's breathing became heavy.
