Chapter 157 The blood-stained cow(1/3)
Nearly a week has passed since the last time he helped Qi Chengzhou and his "Wangwu City" successfully survive the monster siege.
The rewards obtained from the previous five "aids" have finally been fully calculated.
Plague City received a total of 1.62 million union coins and 1.2 million game gold coins.
The total price is not even 3 million, and it seems that it is not as much as Liu Yifei made from Shadow Raid, but this amount of money is easier to earn.
Except for a few rare cases, in the five consecutive city defense battles, there were no large-scale dead units on the Plague City side. The only ones who suffered some losses were probably mercenary units such as ghosts. However, as long as you have money,
This can be easily replenished
Of course, it is impossible for all the money to fall into Liu Yifei's pocket, and in Liu Yifei's original plan, he actually had no intention of embezzling the money.
Liu Yifei used to make a good income from selling equipment or game currency through games. At least it was much more than what he made when he was working. The generosity from the one-armed wolf a while ago made him suddenly
Liu Yifei's bank account suddenly increased to seven figures. In a short time, Liu Yifei was no longer hungry for money.
Of course, except for huge sums of eight figures or more...
The main use of this money is actually to repay the players in the mercenary group and the local guard.
Liu Yifei knew very well that in the short term, the player army was unlikely to become the ace army in the hands of local lords. This had a lot to do with the players' discipline.
Regardless of the player's personal discipline, once the team becomes larger, various random events will always occur that will cause the player's troops to integrate, and there will be many problems when going out to fight, such as having to go offline due to something at home, and being unable to leave for too long at work.
class.
Moreover, it is okay to let the player's troops fight with the wind. Once the lord issues a task such as cutting off the queen and sending death to the players, it will be completely blind. I'm afraid there are not many players who can resolutely carry out the task.
After all, no one is stupid, right?
However, in the end, it is the players who can be called the "ace" on the world map.
Without him, the player's strength determines everything
Although mercenaries can be upgraded and evolved to continuously improve their strength. However, the number of high-level creatures is small after all, and it is not easy for mercenaries to evolve. It is impossible for players to gather them on a large scale, at least not in a short period of time.
At this time, the player's troops are stable in strength and can be consumed repeatedly, which determines their value.
Therefore, Liu Yifei and Tadun have discussed the issue of "how to organize and utilize player legions" countless times.
In fact, Tower Shield doesn’t have a good solution for this either.
In various virtual games in the past, there has never been such a large-scale frenzy of player lordship. In previous games, being able to organize a big PK with thousands of players and player-level players is already considered a great person.
But looking at the style of the game Heroes of Might and Magic OL, I'm afraid that fighting with 100,000 people won't be a big deal in the future, and these people must be well-organized, elite and efficient.
Otherwise, 100,000 people would rush forward in a chaotic manner. It doesn’t take more than 20,000 elites from the other side to kill them all.
After all, there is a huge difference between an elite army and a ragtag group of nomads. Even if the gap in absolute strength between the two sides is not that big.
Therefore, when it comes to the player legion, the two of them are only in the exploratory stage.
The meaning of Tower Shield is to add an attendance evaluation system to the mercenary group, that is, the player's strength is not everything, but also related to the usual enthusiasm and discipline of collective activities.
Every time you attend a group activity, you will get extra points on the evaluation. If you are absent without reason or even run away maliciously, you will be deducted directly.
If the official member's evaluation is too low, he will be directly classified into the reserve force or even be eliminated, while those who perform well in the reserve force can be promoted to the full member. The full member has advantages in attendance subsidies.
Liu Yifei thought this was a good idea, and asked Yu Huangquan to adopt similar evaluation measures for the local guards in the Plague City. In comparison, Liu Yifei's utilization rate of the local guards was relatively low, and because these people came from all over the world, they gathered almost all of them.
Players in the Kingdom of Solna, so the overall discipline is really not worth mentioning.
Of course, management must be strict, and the reward and punishment system must be equally strict.
Not only must you be ruthless when punishing, but you must also not be soft-hearted when rewarding.
The most important people attending the five city defense battles this time were the 4,000 people from the Star Wars mercenary group and the local guards. They can be said to be the core force.
As long as all team members pass the assessment, Liu Yifei will give a cash reward of 200 United Dollars. Among them, those who perform well and are named and encouraged by various administrators will have their bonuses doubled.
The reward of two hundred yuan in joint coins may not sound like much, but compared with the workload of ordinary members, it is quite easy to earn.
After all, a single city defense battle is not long, and the main thing the players have to do is kill monsters. In addition, there are military merits and experience. They have nothing to lose, and even the supplies are provided by local players.
They really made all their money in vain.
They made easy money, but Liu Yifei spent a million for it. (Liu Yifei, a group of managers from Star Wars, also paid 80,000 yuan in labor fees, and several of his subordinates also worked very hard and received a bonus of 50,000 yuan)
This alone won Liu Yifei high praise.
At the same time, it also made everyone realize that as long as you work seriously and conscientiously in Plague City, there seems to be quite a "money" career.
However, Liu Yifei also pointed out that the "free experience" distributed after the war was not all. He withheld part of it to use against mercenaries to increase the strength of the legion. Of course the players understood this.
As for other cash and game coins, they were all stored in the Lord's Castle in Plague City and used as public funds for future construction.
Of course, this is a benefit distributed to all ordinary players, and for Plague City itself, the benefits are even greater, such as the thirty mobile ballistas that are already in place. For example, the rare batch from the Qi Chengzhou team
Supplies, as well as a group of advanced life professional players who have recently transferred from the Treasure Group, are of great significance to Plague City
In addition, the "complete soul crystal" also gave Liu Yifei a big surprise.
As expected, that thing is used on the NPC heroes under the player. But instead of directly letting the NPC heroes advance, it can grant the fifth-level hero the task opportunity to advance to the spiritual level.
Moreover, the same complete soul crystal has different success rates on different bosses. The specific reason is unknown to Liu Yifei due to the lack of comparative data.
If you give this crystal to Milanknos, the chance of awakening to the advanced mission is only 22, but if you give it to Bol, the chance is as high as 75. Liu Yifei threw it directly at Bol.
The soul crystal quickly turned into a pure and rich blue light and merged into Bol's body, and the soul fire in Bol's head pulsed. Then Liu Yifei received a system prompt saying that Bol had successfully awakened.
level mission. Liu Yifei, as its "lord", can choose whether to enter the mission space immediately.
Liu Yifei prepared appropriately and entered the mission space.
The background of that mission was an extremely large spiritual tomb of the great corpse witch hero. During the mission, Boer was a new corpse witch hero who had successfully awakened the power of the spiritual order. He proposed to go deep into the tomb with Liu Yifei.
Deep down. To pay homage to the remains of the great corpse witch hero.
In fact, there is nothing special about this mission. The only characteristic is that the combat intensity is high, and it is very large.
At the end of the level, Liu Yifei and Boll had to face the attacks of three powerful corpse witch bosses who had lost their intelligence but had absolute spiritual level strength.
Players can either bravely rush into the final dormitory of the great corpse witch hero, or they can defeat these corpse witch heroes and enter the dormitory.
Not only is the boss battle at the end of the level intense, but even the harassment from various mobs along the way is enough to make ordinary players cry.
Fortunately, Liu Yifei was powerful, and the tomb here was high enough. Liu Yifei was able to make the summoned bone dragon lie down in the tomb, so in the end he defeated all his opponents without any danger.
The final result was also very good. Since he paid homage to the remains of the Great Corpse Witch in a very polite manner and did not damage anything in the Great Corpse Witch's dormitory, Boll's intelligence attributes and spiritual attributes collectively increased by 5 after he advanced.
, for a high-level spiritual boss, this is a big reward.
After this battle, when he exited the mission space, Bol's appearance had completely changed.
It turned out to be just an ordinary corpse witch boss. Even the equipment on his body was collected by Liu Yifei. The best thing was the prayer staff that Liu Yifei replaced in his hand.
However, after successfully advancing, the soul fire in Boll's eyes was stronger and brighter than ever before, and his whole body had a faint black luster, as if he was shrouded in a shadow.
He wears a high-collared corpse witch crown, inlaid with gold and silver, showing his dignity. The robe of death that beats like black flames makes Bol look like a born devil.
And taking a look at Bol's attributes...
Liu Yifei almost fainted from happiness at that time.
Death Gaze, Death's Shock, Undead's Restless Mind,
Oh my God
There are more expert-level spells than anything Liu Yifei has ever learned.
It is indeed a powerful existence that was once a legendary level. Even though its strength is still far from being restored, it is definitely beyond the ordinary spiritual level boss who has just advanced.
With the spiritual-level Bol, Plague City has another strong general.
Especially this kind of lion, the summoning type, will definitely shine more powerfully than the ordinary force boss in the next battle.
However, Liu Yifei was still wondering where he could get another "complete soul crystal", so he managed to get Milan Knox to advance together. As for Misha... Although that guy has always been
Liu Yifei relied on it, but his mentality was still unclear, so it was better to keep it refrigerated.
But when he thinks of war, Liu Yifei has to have a headache.
I don’t know if it’s because the old dwarf priest is getting older, so the accuracy of the “prophecy” is becoming less and less reliable.
He clearly said at that time, "It can take as short as half a month, or as long as half a month. The army from the dwarf tribe will arrive." However, almost a month has passed, and there is still no ghost shadow in the vast Sigh Mountains.
not see
At the beginning, Liu Yifei could wait with peace of mind, feeling that the other party was a day late. Instead, he was able to accumulate strength for one more day. However, as the days passed, Liu Yifei became a little unable to sit still.
Those short guys...could they be lost in the Sighing Mountains?
As a last resort, Liu Yifei had to send a "reconnaissance team" to explore the west and south of the Sighing Mountains.
Those who went to the west were naturally searching for traces of the dwarf army, while those who were going to the south were to see if they would encounter George and the others. After all, in the prophecy of the old dwarf priest, he said that he saw "the fire of hope coming from
Coming from the south." I think the speed from both sides should be about the same.
But what’s devastating is...
Three full weeks have passed since the prophecy
There was no movement at all on both sides.
Could it be...that the old dwarf priest is really confused?
Liu Yifei later visited the old dwarf priest twice, but the other party also claimed that he didn't understand, but the "sight" he saw before should be correct...
What makes Liu Yifei depressed is that the news from the dwarves has not arrived. Instead, the news from the Spider Girl clan has arrived.
It involves the one-armed wolf's one million "final payment", so this guy is obviously very concerned about it. Before Liu Yifei left, he had already finalized the entire retreat route of the Spider Woman clan in detail, and even sent people to support him along the way.
This is exactly what Liu Yifei expected, but he didn't say it directly. The one-armed wolf really takes people's money, relieves people's worries, and arranges everything properly.
According to the latest news from the One-Armed Wolf, the entire migratory force of the Spider Woman Clan is not far from the entrance to the underground world on the eastern plains that Liu Yifei and the others know. About four more days will be enough.
As long as you get there, you have basically entered Liu Yifei's realm of influence. He can send people there in advance to meet him, and then go to the outpost. Then go to the Plague City, the spider woman clan and the more than thirty seventh-level hidden creatures."
