451 Thou hast gone astray

The mercenary guild was very efficient, and it took half a day to put the news of the cornucopia chamber of commerce in front of Roland.

The core layer of this chamber is full of players, but on the periphery are a number of game NPCs responsible for some simple but heavy labor work.

For example, unloading goods, guarding low-end material warehouses, and so on.

High-end goods and supplies are all stored in the player's system backpack.

The number of players is about 230, and there are occasional increases and decreases, which may be due to new people joining the club from time to time, or old people withdrawing from the club.

As for the number of NPCs employed, it is a bit large, at least around 5,000 people, and the major commercial cities of Hollevon have their logistics warehouses.

Even the city of Delbon has a logistics warehouse of theirs.

It can be said that the commercial tentacles of the Cornucopia Chamber of Commerce have stretched out in the country of Hollevon.

They even have a vague ability to manipulate the direction of Kholaiven's economy.

The sudden explosion of magical materials is essentially their handiwork.

However, it is very interesting that the average level of all players in this chamber of commerce is only LV2, and now the average level of all players is LV4, so they are ready for LV5. They are holding back the average level of the player.

Roland looked at it for a while, threw the information aside, and lost interest.

The economy, business is indeed important, but in this world, what is more important is strength.

This group of players with an average level of just over LV2 cares too much about money.

In this world, strength is the most important thing.

No matter how strong the Cornucopia Chamber of Commerce is, can it be stronger than the United Progressive Organization?

The group of people in the United Progress Organization, more than 1,000 enthusiastic and dedicated players, with an average level of LV5, and a large number of NPC elite armored warriors under his command, the number is at least 100,000.

If they were a guild, there would have been no F6 for a long time, and there would have been a matter of the Phoenix Guild.

But a progressive organization as strong as this was wiped out in less than two days.

Cornucopia is a fart in comparison!

The girls in the Phoenix Guild, with only one-tenth of their manpower, can overturn them casually.

"The road is crooked."

Roland said lightly.

In a peaceful world, there is nothing wrong with focusing on business, and the capital of a peaceful world is so strong that it makes people almost desperate. But in this world, only after having a strong military guarantee, can we develop business, which is the right way.

Otherwise, it's just making wedding clothes for someone else.

If the cornucopia can't pull up a powerful mercenary army in a short time, then within half a year, something will definitely happen.

After reading the information, Roland made this judgment.

Then he ignored it and began to concentrate on magic.

Although there is no way to study causal magic, there is no new information. But other magic can still be practiced.

For example, the spell of greasy.

This spell Roland hardly needs to be used, because it doesn't mean much to him.

The greasy spell is a spell that low-mages love to use, plus the spider web technique and the small fireball technique, it is the 'three-plate axe' of the junior mage.

First, use the greasy technique to make the enemy slip or cut the foot unsteadily, then the spider web technique will trap the person, and finally the small fire technique will directly set the person on fire.

Both oil and cobwebs make the flames burn more violently, increasing spell damage in disguise.

It is a magic weapon for novice magicians to defeat the enemy.

Roland skipped this step directly, and he could smash half of the court with a small fireball.

But that doesn't mean that the magic of greasy magic is useless.

Because Roland discovered some time ago that the 'oil' summoned by the greasy technique is the 'worm oil' of the Void Star Boundary, which can not only be burned, but also 'edible', and the taste is quite fragrant.

Then Roland had an idea...... Since the oil is edible, I changed the spell model to focus on increasing the amount of 'oil' summoned, rather than focusing on the area used to make people slip like in the case of support magic.

If it succeeds, and then spread this spell model, then many spells that are relatively short of money at the beginning, or beginners in law from poor families, can rely on this spell and sell some worm oil every day, so that they can have enough money to live and pay some tuition? Don't you have to be so poor?

The oil price in this world is quite expensive, not to mention that the Astral Insect Oil is pure and transparent, and the taste is good, it is a high-grade oil at a glance, and the price should be quite high.

Roland thinks that after promoting this improved magic, will other magicians have similar brains from now on, make more spells that can make people eat, and add an additional 'producer' identity to themselves?

Just do it.

Roland began his retreat, focusing on revising the spell model of the Greasy Technique.

Under normal circumstances, the astral insect oil summoned by the greasy technique is about half a kilogram at a time, and it can spray an area of about ten square meters in front of the wine, creating an area without relative friction.

The amount of oil is too small, it has to be added, it has to be changed.

Roland's improvement plan was relatively smooth in the early stage.

The amount of oil summoned has risen steadily, but when the 'yield' reaches three kilograms, it falls into a bottleneck.

The output can't go up.

Roland was a little puzzled.

The model has been changed countless times, but nothing has a better effect.

He didn't know why.

This time, Roland was on the mathematical model again, looking at the recorded data.

It took more than ten days and many re-deductions before he found that there was a data in the mathematical model that was not marked.

It's also something he's been missing.

The 'size' of the oil outlet channel.

The greasy technique is essentially summoning magic, and when summoning insect oil, you need a space pipeline,

The size of the pipeline determines the amount of oil produced at the same time.

Now that you understand this, things are much easier.

Either lengthen the time of oil production, or out of the caliber of large pipes.

It is unlikely that the oil production time will be extended, the limit of the first-level magic is here, and if the oil production time is increased, then it will have to be pushed to the second-level magic.

This doesn't count as a qualified initial 'production' of magic.

As for increasing the diameter of the pipe.

That involves the application of space magic.

Other words...... If it is further strengthened, this magic will become a resurrection magic, a dual-attribute of summoning and space. It's troublesome and extremely difficult to cast.

It is also inconsistent with Roland's philosophy.

So, summoning three kilograms of oil at a time is the limit.

Okay...... Fortunately, it can also reduce the mental power consumption of spells, so it's a big deal to summon them a few more times.

Roland drew the model of the spell on a piece of parchment, and he planned to dedicate the spell to the goddess of magic first.

He didn't plan to upload it directly to the forum anymore, after all, many of the improved magic before had been taken to other countries by unscrupulous players for their own benefit, and what made Roland even more unhappy was that even the creator's name was changed to himself.

There is no bottom line.

Roland put the parchment paper into the system backpack as the lab door opened and Andonara came in with a large clay pot.

"There's no gas at home, get some quickly."

Roland flicked his fingers, and the liquid as clean and transparent as pure water slowly poured down from the small black space in mid-air and fell into the clay pot.

It won't be long before it's full.

The air is filled with a very nice smell.

Andonara took a deep breath and left with the clay pot in her arms.

Ever since she tried to make food with this oil, Andonara didn't like other animal oils, or vegetable oils.

This thing Roland has tested it with mice before, and it is not addictive, but it simply tastes great.

As soon as Andonara left, Vivien entered the industry again, her nose moved, and after smelling the residual oil fragrance, her expression was also happy, and then she said: "Roland, Your Excellency Douglis wants to see you below, and he said that he has something very important to tell you. ”

Roland nodded: "Please ask him to come up." ”

Two minutes later, the two faced each other, and Vivien poured each of them a glass of fruit wine before leaving the room.

Roland took a sip of fruit wine and asked, "Is there something important, your expression is obviously smiling, it doesn't look like there is something important." ”

Dougles's smile deepened: "Important things can also be good things." Hehe, something happened to Charles' cornucopia chamber of commerce. ”

"What's wrong?"

Roland was a little surprised.

"A group of NPCs, together with many masked players, raided the headquarters of the Cornucopia Guild and stole a lot of low-level and large amounts of magic materials." Douglis smiled: "This matter has not been posted on the forum yet, but it is estimated that it will be soon." ”

Roland looked at Douglis's expression and was a little strange: "Aren't you friends with Charles?" Something happened to him, why are you gloating so much? ”

"Not friends, just acquaintances." Douglis waved his hand: "There is no real friendship between us people, and the relationship is good on the surface, but we just look at each other's property or power, and social means." ”

Roland shrugged, the other party was so sincere, he didn't know how to answer.

Douglis continued: "It's easy to do if it's just robbed by someone, the real big problem is that the royal family of Hollevin and the Magic Association jointly spoke out, saying that the Cornucopia Guild maliciously monopolized magic materials and disrupted the market, ordering them to put a large number of high-grade magic materials out at a low price after twenty days to stabilize the market, otherwise they would be wanted nationwide." ”

"It's not surprising...... Roland nodded, he had expected this, but he suddenly noticed something wrong: "Did the royal family directly say that they were such a modern term as 'monopolizing magic materials and disrupting the economic market'?" ”

Douglis gave a thumbs up: "You're really smart, and you react so fast." That's right, according to the information I have found, the royal family has recently recruited a small group of elite players, and it is estimated that there are financial talents among them. Anyway, now the cornucopia chamber of commerce is in trouble now. If they really spit out magic materials to stabilize the market, they will definitely lose their pants and have to go out, after all, in the process of acquisition, the price of magic materials is slowly rising, and when they finally buy, it is estimated that they are stockpiling at a premium of three or four times the original price. ”

Roland's fingers subconsciously tapped on the table, and after a while, he said: "The royal family's division plan has been successful, and those players who robbed the Cornucopia Chamber of Commerce are probably going to do so after receiving a task from the royal family." ”

"But aren't they afraid of becoming red or something?"

"As long as there is a mission, killing players will not increase the red name value," Roland smiled, and somehow, he suddenly remembered Antis: "I guess it's some kind of marine privateer certificate, land privateer certificate or something." ”

Douglis sighed: "Amazing, this operation is a ploy, I think it should be a ploy by players recruited by the royal family." ”

Roland smiled bitterly in his heart...... Actually, he came out, and when he went to the royal city two weeks ago to deliver money to the Bards, he and Antis talked for a while, and talked about the concept of privateer certificates, and at that time he was just chatting casually, looking for some topics to talk about.

I didn't expect that Antis would really use it.
