Therefore, as the game operation enters a stable period and the game progress continues to improve, various wealthy people have taken action one after another, trying to carve out their own world in the game.

Some of these people are group agents in real society, trying to make their group famous through this game. Others are rich men with huge amounts of money who are bored and want to experience the joy of being king in the game!

But now, no matter what the origins of these people are, they all encounter the same problem! That is, they have encountered a development bottleneck...

At this time, Liu Yifei already knew how difficult it was to develop a territory on the world map by relying on his own strength.

This simply cannot be accomplished overnight.

For example, as in other games, you can develop and grow as long as you have money, but this is simply impossible on the world map!

At least Liu Yifei has met "Migal" from the Elf tribe. To be fair, if he can spend hundreds of thousands on the construction of a territory in a short period of time, this guy can be regarded as an absolutely rich man.

But even though he later spent a lot of money to invite a large number of thugs to help him, he still couldn't withstand the monster's siege.

The rich man failed like this, let alone others.

It's just that there are some people who accept death and try twice if it doesn't work. If it doesn't work twice, try three times. Not to mention! Nowadays, there are really a few sporadic forces that have developed their own city-level strongholds.

However, after applying for city construction three times in succession, their large sums of money were thrown into the water, and they wanted to build a first-class city...

The cost required is more than ten times that of building a full-level town!

At this time, except for the gods who directly print money at home, they can only slowly accumulate strength and gradually develop.

Therefore, these sporadic city-level forces are now stuck in the quagmire and struggling. They only hope to build a first-level city as soon as possible. By then, life will be much easier.

However, there are definitely only a few people who dare to invest so wildly. Most wealthy people will still consider the ratio between input and output. If they have some spare money, it is better to continue to develop their power in the player group first, and then Xu Tu

Champa and become king.

There are also more fortunate organizations such as Tiger King Hall or Shadow Raid, which can successfully "buy" a ready-made territory through other methods. Generally, at this time, they will try their best to go crazy. After all, such a good thing has already happened.

It's like pie falling from the sky.

And this time, some of the "big forces" who came to discuss an "alliance" with Liu Yifei came up with another way to break through the development bottleneck...

"You mean...someone wants to pay to hire our troops to protect their own territory and upgrade it?"

"Yes, the rewards offered by these people are very attractive and can quickly subsidize our investment. In addition, we have now gathered a large number of middle and low-level troops, especially the number of low-level troops.

On the contrary, none of our troops can suppress the enemy's core weakness.

Compared with the large number of NPC heroes under the jurisdiction of Plague City, this development is somewhat deformed.

Although our people have been working hard to improve some of our elite soldiers, completing tasks is a boring and slow-effective method after all.

In my opinion, it is better to accept their employment, gain free experience through the war, and then directly attack a group of elite troops!"

What a great idea!

Huang Quan said nothing. Liu Yifei secretly praised him in his heart.

Whether it is a battle or a military strategy, many times, breakthroughs based on points can often achieve miraculous results!

In order to meet this situation, a powerful elite force is indispensable.

In fact, at this time, the development bottleneck of the entire player group can be regarded as a huge static surface. As long as a group of player forces can break this static and achieve breakthroughs, the entire player group will soon be able to make leaps and bounds of progress!

At this time, Plague City is undoubtedly the best representative of this kind of "leader"!

If you can develop your own core strength, it will be even better!

Moreover, Liu Yifei was once a "well-known figure" on the strategic map. He liked the strategy of elite soldiers very much. This also made his early development on the strategic map a leap forward!

It's just that Liu Yifei didn't expect that not long after Yu Huangquan took over this type of strategic decision-making, she could already think of such an idea. It seems that she really has a talent in this area.

"Yes! This idea is feasible! Your most recent focus should be on negotiating further troop subsidies and agreements with these people.

Be more courageous. As long as it is not excessive, you can raise your requirements as high as possible.

Although it’s a bit unkind, this is an excellent opportunity for us to gather capital. No one can do this alone except us, as long as we don’t scare them. You have to fight for the profits here.”

Liu Yifei nodded in affirmation.

"But these people's territories are far apart. If we really want to send troops, our troop transportation will be a problem. We must communicate with other NPC lords..."

"I will take care of this. You can make a list in the near future... In fact, you can tell the outside world that we will publicly sign 'allies'. Every week, we will help an ally expand territory, and as for the order...

The highest bidder wins!

In this way, they will raise the reward themselves without any effort on your part.

After basically establishing the list, I will communicate with the NPC lords in various places. At most, it will only cost them a little money. Our territory's gold production capacity is now good, and we should be able to afford it. In the future, everyone's 'salary' will be in joint currency.

Just pay”

The final problem is the difficulties encountered in the development of the territory itself.

Although player traffic is increasing day by day, the demand for various service-oriented NPCs in the territory has greatly increased!

The blacksmiths, tailors and other NPCs needed to repair equipment were only given a batch of the most basic ordinary NPCs when Liu Yifei built the city, which gradually became unable to meet the needs of local players.

For example, it is very troublesome to repair excellent-level equipment in Plague City. Only large items such as shields and plate armor are easier to repair. The more delicate the other items, the more difficult they are to repair. For example, jewelry and the like can only be repaired elsewhere.

City repair.

And ordinary NPCs such as king-level equipment cannot repair them.

This situation is becoming more and more serious, and the level of local NPCs in Plague City has not yet improved. There are no local residents who can be called "masters" among Liu Yifei's "employees". For example, there are only a few in the dwarf village.

Several blacksmith masters are working all day and night to make the armament orders they need for the City of Misery. Where can they find the time to serve the players?

The reason why such a problem occurs is also related to the triple jump development of Plague City a while ago.

The city upgrades too fast, there is no accumulation process, and the improvement of NPC strength can't keep up.

Liu Yifei was unable to help with such a problem, so he could only promise to go to the City of Suffering to ask Emoni for advice later, and see if he could find two masters to come and rescue him.

As for the functional buildings in the territory such as the Lord Mage Tower and the Lord Craft Hall, they are in a state of semi-paralysis because there are no powerful NPCs to take charge of them. These are not things that Liu Yifei can take care of...

The matter was almost settled, but Huang Huangquan obviously had no intention of leaving and glanced at the other party. Liu Yifei's heart subconsciously thumped, secretly thinking that trouble was coming.

"I heard that you can even summon the Bone Dragon now? Isn't it a big gain from this trip?"

Huangquan said angrily.

"Uh... haha, it's okay. It's a bit rewarding. But the hard work during this period is definitely not small! Didn't he tell you about the dagger? We almost lost our lives many times, so we can only barely protect ourselves."

Liu Yifei felt sweat on his forehead and said with a guilty conscience.

"Oh? Really?

But why did I hear that you had a glorious trip to the Deep Dark Realm, a glorious trip to the Earth Elemental Realm, and a glorious tour of the Tower Battlefield several times?

Oh! That’s right!

I also watched a video of someone slaying a dragon last night

By the way, how was that man slaughtered? Why did I hear... that it was done with bare hands?

When will the wizards of the ghost tribe be able to kill dragons with their bare hands with just a little improvement? If they were so powerful, then the ghost tribe would have gone against the will of heaven long ago."

Although Yu Huangquan pretends to be a man most of the time, everyone has already known that she is an out-and-out woman, and she can also be considered a beauty!

Although she is not as cool and cool as Xuelan, she is definitely a sunny beauty!

However, at this moment, looking at Huang Quan who was dressed in men's clothing and speaking in the tone of a woman, he even rolled his eyes with resentment on his face. Even Liu Yifei, who had gone through several life and death trials, was still shouting that he couldn't bear it!

"Hey, hey, stop it, stop it! Huang Quan, can we talk it over carefully?

this time...

What we did this time was unethical..."

"Isn't it just unethical?"

"Well! It's our fault!

However, this action is indeed too dangerous!

Before we set off, we had no idea that there would be so many complications, and the following things were not in our plan at all.

And even so, we still narrowly escaped death, and many times we were just running for our lives! You followed...

In fact, there is really not much difference!

I did it because there was a bit of a strange encounter in the middle. Neither I nor Dagger said anything about these things. In fact, it’s hard to tell.

Otherwise, wouldn't you have discovered that the little assassin's strength has not improved much?

Otherwise, why do you think Xue Lan chose to stay there and not come back?

It’s not that we really earned anything. It’s just that I discovered a new problem.”

Regarding the meeting with the "Lord of Darkness", Liu Yifei dared not say anything about it.

This boss is one of the well-deserved giants in the game. A real god!

Regardless of whether the person Liu Yifei saw before was the other party's true body, a clone, or someone brave enough to impersonate the Lord of Darkness.

In short, this thing is definitely the biggest secret in the game so far!

Strictly speaking, the meeting between Liu Yifei and "it" was even more shocking than Sandro's real body being resurrected in full state!
