Chapter 112 The dark cave
"In the past half month, in order to build a village, we have recruited NPC guards and skilled teachers and paid wages to the deputy players in the village. We have spent a total of 5.535,000 gold coins. The total amount of money for buying a house, consumption and entertainment is 1.612,000 gold coins, and the loss is 1.923,000 gold coins. As a village-level guild, our gang can recruit now has reached a maximum of 50,000 people, and we can no longer recruit people." Sitting in front of Chongtian Sword in the Longteng Tianxia Gang Assembly Hall, a lean and leaner with a little bald hair, and his eyes reveal a shrewd middle-aged player was reporting to Chongtian Sword one by one with an account book.
"Young Master, the most urgent task now is to find a way to improve the resident level and become a town-level resident as soon as possible. If you can also hire NPC guards and skilled teachers, it is best to save a few, which is not expensive than the expense." The middle-aged player continued.
"Haha, Uncle Qian, I know what you said. Guards and skill masters are not missing now. Without them protecting the village and making it easier for players to learn skills, they will definitely not be able to attract more people to come to the village to consume. I have also considered the issue of improving the resident. However, although we are the largest gang in the world, whether we can withstand the monster attack when upgrading the town-level resident. In addition, my current reputation cannot meet the needs of upgrading the resident, so now I will hurry up and let the brothers advance and improve their strength. Although there are so many people in the gang, more people who can work wholeheartedly for the gang will not work hard for the gang. The others are just trying to take advantage of the gang and borrow some momentum. Therefore, in the next step, we must rectify the gang and find that there is a reputation in the gang. Those who do not contribute to the gang must start to eliminate the gang in a planned manner, absorb more capable and loyal players in."
Chongtian Jian paused and said, "Actually, we can get such a high return now far beyond my imagination. I am ready to start building a gang that has suffered losses for several months. The construction of the gang station is based on high standards and strict requirements. Of course, it will cost more money. Otherwise, it would not be so easy to defend against the last time when we resisted monsters to attack the village. So if we throw this money down, it will be rewarding. As long as we continue to develop according to this trend, the days when we get benefits from the 'world' will not be long."
The middle-aged man named Uncle Qian nodded with his head as he heard the words of Chongtian Sword, and said, "It's still the eldest young master who thinks it thoroughly, and thinks it thoroughly."
** "Boss, recently, there are always players coming to the vicious pk near our gang's resident. Moreover, players who come to the village to consume are often dissatisfied with food, and make big fuss about the poor service, which has affected a lot of business. This month, I have lost more than 2 million, m, I guess which club deliberately made people come to find fault." An orc player with a wide waist and a wide body and a fleshy face said roaring to the blood-stained territory.
After listening to his subordinates' report, the blood-stained territory's face darkened, and he grinded his teeth and said fiercely: "It doesn't matter if you lose some money. If someone dares to come, you must solve it. Otherwise, how can we gain a foothold in the 'world' in the future and how can other players dare to come? Mad wolf, please take someone to check it out to see which gang is the one who is the one who is doing it. I must find out that I must be good-looking."
After hearing the blood-stained territory, the crazy wolf lifted the guy in his hand and replied, "Boss, don't worry. I'll take it out to check it out now. Don't be touched by these guys who dare to come and cause trouble. When I meet, I will definitely let them come up vertically and go out horizontally."
Fuck* "Lingyun, the situation in the village is basically on the right track now. Although they are still losing money, they are all developing in a better way. It seems that you made such a decisive decision at the beginning. "A player with a happy face and a slightly red face stood behind the arrogant Lingyun and said with a smile.
"Yu Yun, it's not too early to say this now. Brothers trust me so much. We have finally raised so much money as the start-up capital of the gang. We must not be careless. We must improve the basic facilities of the village and cultivate more brothers who learn skills such as construction, institutions, blacksmiths, tailors, etc., so that we can save a lot of money to hire NPC skill masters. After the world's No. 1 martial arts competition, my reputation has reached the requirement of improving the resident level. We must let the brothers quickly reach the level. In addition, we can ask the help of the two gangs "Long Teng Tianxia" and "Ten Thousand Beasts Without Borders". We strive to upgrade the Lingyun Pavilion's first resident into a town-level resident as soon as possible, which will inevitably bring a broad market." Lingyun looked at the prosperous resident and said with confidence.
Fucking "Brother, I heard you have not joined the guild yet. Are you interested in joining our gang? We will definitely not treat you badly." The guy who spoke in a rough voice was Madman Slayer, and the one opposite him was a player who participated in the world's No. 1 martial arts competition and entered the semi-finals.
"What are the benefits?" Hearing that there are benefits to the Gang, the player became interested and asked at the Madman Slayer.
"As long as you make appropriate contributions to the gang, we can pay you a generous bonus." Madman Zhan said with the most direct temptation.
"What kind of contribution?" the player asked.
Seeing that the player was also a profit-seeking person, Madman Sword took a few steps forward and muttered to the player's ears. The player's face turned red and white. When Madman Sword finally finished speaking, his face tightened, and with a wave of his big hand, a group of fierce thugs immediately appeared behind him to surround the player tightly. Madman Sword said, "Friend, since you have followed our rules, you have to add it, and you have to add it if you don't add it. Think about it carefully."
The player didn't think much about it, and changed his smile and said, "Brother Mad, with such benefits, how can I not add it? I hope you will take care of it in the future."
Seeing that the player was able to recognize his ugly face, Madman Zhan relaxed, and he patted his shoulder and said, "Haha, we will be our own people in the future. What should we do if we take care of it? If we have money, we will make money, and if we have wealth, we will enjoy the money." But there is another saying that Madman Zhan kept it in his heart and didn't say it out, that is, "If you have difficulties, you should take responsibility."
Damn it, it only takes a token to build a gang, but it costs millions of gold coins to build a gang resident. How much does it cost to build a town-level or city-level resident? These gangs that have built resident are not mediocre people. They are willing to invest and have visionary figures, all of whom have the Eight Immortals cross the sea, showing their magical powers, and want to share the huge online consumer market with Huaxia Group.
Fuck*What is this hunter Lao Feng trying to do? Will it be another hidden task? With the help of several tasks that did not suffer losses, I was inexplicably excited when I heard these NPCs say such sensitive words. I quickly appeared excitedly and walked up and asked, "Uncle, what do you want to find, can I help?"
My sudden mouth suddenly appeared, which shocked Lao Feng. He looked at me with a little surprise and asked, "Who are you and where did you come from?"
Isn't this nonsense? Where can I come from? Of course I came from the city. I quickly said, "I'm a player who just came from the Underworld. I heard you want to make that one and that one, and I want to help you."
"You, can you really help me?" Hunter Lao Feng looked at me a little unbelievably and asked.
"Yes, why can't I? I'm a level 33 master at least, and a Dark Panther King pet." As I said, I took out a bronze medal and summoned Xiao Hei. With the magic light flashing on the ground, Xiao Hei's agile figure gradually became clearer and appeared between me and Lao Feng.
"It's really the Dark Panther King. This is a level 40 monster. You can actually tame it as a pet. It has certain ability, but what I need is not as simple as you think to get it." Hunter Lao Feng looked at Xiao Hei and said in marvel.
If you look down on me like this, this task must be quite difficult. I guess the reward is also generous. I thought it beautifully from subjective assumptions. No matter how difficult it is, as long as you open it, you will always have a solution. If it is really difficult, I can do it at most. What's the big deal?
So I said to the hunter Lao Feng confidently: "Tell me and see if I can help you."
"I need to collect fifty blue-shaped ant eggs from the nest of the blue-shaped ant. Can you do it?" Hunter Lao Feng said word by word.
Oh, it's indeed quite difficult. The occasional group of people outside makes me scare my soul. If I ask me to go to the ant nest, it's not like sending sheep into the ant's mouth. If I go, I don't seem to be able to pick it up. I weighed my own weight and thought. However, looking at the hunter Lao Feng, I don't look like a high-level cow master. Why do he dare to be here alone without fear of blue-patterned ants and want to get ant eggs alone? Isn't he afraid of catching them? Or, does he have any secret weapons?
My eyes wandered on Lao Feng for a while and asked tentatively: "If I promise to collect ant eggs for you, can you provide me with any help?"
Lao Feng smiled and said, "If you are really willing to accept this task and collect ant eggs instead of me, I can give you a few bottles of blue ant liquid and apply it to the blue ant liquid that will prevent the blue ant from becoming hostile to you for a certain period of time. After all, those guys do not distinguish enemies by their eyes, but by their smell. However, once you get the ant eggs, those blue ants will attack you immediately, except throwing the ant eggs, which is why I have never been able to succeed. How about it, the hidden person, are you willing to accept this task? By the way, I would like to remind you that if it cannot be completed, you should reduce your reputation."
Blue ant liquid, this potion is good, it can prevent ants from attacking me, and at least ensure my personal safety. Since failure only reduces reputation, what is that little loss? I still have more reputation. When I tamed Xiao Hei last time, I increased my reputation by 400, which is enough for me to squander. I nodded and said to the hunter Lao Feng, "Okay, then I will take on your mission."
"The hidden player, you have accepted the Brave Medal task. The task time is two days, and the player's reputation is reduced by 200 points if it fails." (Although this task is a hidden task, it needs to be triggered, that is, the player's reputation value must exceed 200, otherwise what will be deducted if it fails)
"Young man, since you have accepted this task, let me go into the house first. I will tell you in detail about the situation of the ant nest." Since someone is willing to help him do it, the hunter Lao Feng was of course happy to be idle. He gave me a few bottles of blue ant liquid and welcomed me into the house. The two of them sat down at a small wooden table.
Lao Feng took out a stone pen from his body, and while drawing it on the table, he explained to me: "Then, the Blue Ant Nest is located in the westmost corner of the swamp. It is a huge and deep hole, with hundreds of blue-shaped ants living in it, and the ant eggs can be found in the blue-shaped queen in the middle of the hole. After you go in, you go directly, then turn left, then turn right, turn right, um, it's probably in this direction."
After taking a breath, Lao Feng continued: "Those blue-shaped ants go out to hunt on a large scale every day, just like you saw just now, they are divided into groups to hunt swamp animals everywhere. At this time, it is the weakest defense in the blue ants nest. Therefore, the greater the chance of successfully escaping after collecting ant eggs. I hope you can seize the opportunity in these two days and bring me blue-shaped ants eggs smoothly."
After hearing what Lao Feng said, I stood up and said goodbye to Lao Feng. I quickly took Xiao Hei like a gust of wind and ran out. It wasn't just when the blue-print ants were out, so we had to go quickly, otherwise we didn't know when they would go out to hunt next time. After leaving the wooden house, I stepped on Xiao Hei and rushed straight to the west corner of the swamp.
"Oh, why are this guy so anxious? There are still many small leaders in the blue ant nest. They are not easy to mess with. There is also the black hole inside, but I must not enter. Even I don't know what powerful monsters are inside. I hope the Buddha will bless you." The hunter Lao Feng said helplessly, looking at my back.
Hehe, it turns out that because the large army was hunting, I didn't see a few ants along the way, and we had no time to take care of the three-eyed lizards. They didn't want to catch up with me at all. After more than ten minutes of arduous trek (if it wasn't for bypassing the swamps that appear from time to time and hiding a few swamps that bask in the sun, my Xiaohei would have been faster), a barren and barren brown land fell in front of me, which seemed a little out of place with the swamp environment.
"You discovered dark caves and gained 500 experiences."
After hearing the system's reminder, I knew that the blue ant nest we were looking for was here. The huge black hole entrance lurked quietly in the middle of the open space, as if I was expecting me to explore. This old wind was really stingy. He only gave me three bottles of blue ant liquid, and I don't know how long it will last. If this protective liquid is gone at a critical moment, I wouldn't be miserable. On the one hand, in order to save blue ant liquid, and on the other hand, from the perspective of safety first, my Xiao Hei would not take it anymore. As the saying goes, if a person dies, he will be downgraded, and if the pet dies, he will be gone.
After carefully applying the light blue liquid with a faint fishy smell on my body, I strolled towards the dark cave. Drinking, the three-meter square hole outside was already exaggerated. When I walked in, I realized that the space inside was larger. I was alone in this empty and gloomy cave. The dull air made me feel a little depressed. Perhaps because of psychological effects, I always felt that something was wrong. There seemed to be something indescribable danger lurking in front of me. However, relying on my full trust in the blue ant liquid, I rushed in without hesitation and looked for the blue ant queen.
After watching a few blue-patterned soldier ants pass by me with no reaction, I was sure of the effect of Lao Feng's blue ant liquid, and it was indeed not bullying me. The dark cloud in my heart was blown away without a trace. While paying attention to the distribution and movement trend of the remaining ants in the cave, I touched the center of the cave.
A series of chewing sounds sounded from the front. I estimated my current location, which should be near the center of the cave. The chewing sound should be made by the blue-patterned queen. After turning a corner, a trembling hill suddenly appeared in front. No, to be precise, it was the queen who looked like a hill.
Its head is about the same size as that of ordinary blue-shaped ants, and its color is a little darker. From the oval neck cover, it is a huge and almost transparent belly. The belly that expands like a rushing air is spread with ripples and wrinkles, trembling as the mouth eats. The white and crystal white round objects piled behind it should be an ant egg.
I touched the wall of the cave. The 36th-level blue-shaped queen seemed to be not very flexible. It can be seen from the fact that it had already transformed into the ant feet. If I would let them attack me as soon as I got the ant eggs, it would be better for me to start and unconsciously turn the blue-shaped queen into a coma. I had noticed just now that there were no groups of ants in the cave, and the most group was only four. There were cracked arrows soaked in the paralyzing poison. I was absolutely confident that I could escape (last time, it was because I didn’t attach the paralyzing poison to the arrow branches in advance that I was so tragic that I was chased by those damn ants so badly).
I swayed to the Queen of Blue-Sealed Ant. The greedy guy was still biting the swamp lizard in front of me. He didn't care about my existence at all. He sneaked and waved the Curse Blade to make a sneak attack. As I wished, Queen of Blue-Sealed Ant fell into a coma. I immediately ran to the back and looked desperately at the backpack stuffing ant eggs.
One, one, one, fifteen... fifty, well, take a few more, so as not to count the wrong number, and then I won’t give Lao Feng enough. I took dozens of them and threw them into my backpack, and then looked back and summoned Xiao Hei, rode on and ran out of the cave. Without the ants in the large army, I can use our Xiao Hei to escape with confidence.
Chapter completed!
