Chapter 2 Wealth is produced
"Young Master, what kind of servants do you plan to hire?"
"30 goblins, 50 slimes."
Roy had already prepared and placed an order directly.
There is an upper limit for the demon king to sign a minion, which is related to the soul strength of both parties. The stronger the Demon King, the more minions there are, the stronger they are.
Demon King City has a unique set of population calculation methods, such as goblins, one counts as 1 population, and slimes' 3 only counts as one population.
Roy can now sign a population of 3000 units.
Slimes are cheap, self-proliferating, self-healing, have a certain combat power, and have low demand. The disadvantage is that the IQ is basically 0, and it is impossible to wear equipment.
Goblins have a bit of brains, can also use equipment, and can do hard work. But the price is a little more expensive, and most of their limited IQ is used to make trouble, which can lead to a lot of messy things, such as fighting, stealing, destroying public facilities, etc.
placed an order, said a few words to the customer service succubus lady, and was urged to hang up by Luo Lina.
Teleportation takes time, and the other end also needs to be prepared, and it takes at least 6 hours for the goblins to be in place, after which the slime will teleport.
The servants are all in need of food and drink.
The Demon King's Bedroom provides the infrastructure, but that's for Roy and the two Cat Girls themselves. He didn't want those stinking goblins to enter the dormitory.
A living quarters need to be created for minions.
Being a demon king is the same as being a father, and you have to solve all kinds of problems for your servants.
Exit the talent trading market.
Back to the dormitory.
There is a free magic link terminal here, which can link to the magic net of the magic capital.
On trading platforms such as Modong or Mobao, you can place orders to buy various items. Delivery couriers arrive on the same day. It is also possible to link up with construction companies to build or upgrade buildings.
The building can be built by yourself, but the material talent design drawings have to be prepared by yourself, which is not too troublesome compared to professionals. Placing an order directly with a construction company is the fastest and cheapest option.
Plan a living area.
Roy placed a few points.
A magic meadow, a magic well, a cesspool, a dormitory shed.
The Enchanted Meadow is a green belt that absorbs the magic of the mana pool and grows grass quickly. This thing is a high-end decoration, but it was developed by the Blackheart Demon King and became a canteen for low-level cannon fodder. Goblins and slimes can feed by eating grass.
The Enchanted Well is a device that absorbs magic and produces water.
A collective dormitory wooden shed that can accommodate more than 100 goblins, and slimes don't need a place to sleep.
Eat, drink, and get it.
The next step is to build the infrastructure.
Blacksmiths, hospitals, prisons, research institutes, training grounds, warehouses.
The area of the basic facilities can be demarcated by itself, and the construction company can automatically modify the design drawings according to the requirements. These buildings also have levels, and higher levels require some special materials and the Demon King City level.
Roy can now only build at lv1.
Six infrastructure orders were issued.
Roy only has 2,000 Elementals left in his pocket.
Lolina reminded:
"Young master, you have to leave money to build a labyrinth."
"Well, I know, don't worry."
Roy touched Lolina's little head with his hand and pinched her soft cat ears. The latter blushed and lowered his head to grasp the corner of his skirt.
As a Demon King City, a labyrinth is a must.
This is the crystallization of wisdom produced after countless demon kings and brave warriors have fought wits and bravery. It is the first and only barrier to protect the Demon King City. The level design in the novel game is bullshit, and the maze is a hooligan if it is not for the purpose of killing the brave!
At the beginning of the development of Demon King City, it mostly relied on labyrinths. Fight off or capture the brave in exchange for ransom and increase your power.
The status of the labyrinth is very important, and it is related to the development and future of the demon king.
But Chloe doesn't think so.
He felt that the labyrinth was dispensable.
The development of Demon King City, to put it bluntly, is the accumulation of wealth and strength. In the textbooks of the Demon King Academy, there are only two ways for the Demon King to accumulate his wealth.
The first is to open the Gathering Energy Hourglass and plunder the elements of heaven and earth, which is the largest income.
The second is to plunder directly, go to the world of the brave to grab all kinds of loot. Gold, diamonds, artwork, spellbooks, female creatures, rare materials, and more.
The labyrinth is just a city wall, the role is to prevent the harassment of the brave, and the ultimate goal is to achieve the accumulation of wealth in the Demon King City.
Most demon kings start by relying on mazes to survive and develop. There are also demon kings who will buy all the minions to support the war.
Roy scoffs at textbook stuff.
Demon kings are stupid.
The teleportation room is the strongest bug in the Demon King City!
This thing can quickly increase the population, as long as you have the money and throw it in, you can summon minions from the Otherworld.
Population represents labor, labor represents productivity, and productivity represents wealth.
Wealth is produced.
If you find the right way, you can form a positive cycle and accumulate your own wealth. There is no need to plunder at all, and there is no need to worry about the crusade of the brave.
At that time, the city walls were naturally dispensable.
Those demon kings in the demon capital don't think about this at all. Population or something, in their opinion, is just combat effectiveness, and their only idea is to plunder.
"So, the Demon Kings are all fools......"
Roy muttered quietly, and then said to the air:
"Miss Yuumiya."
[Good afternoon, No. 484250 Trainee Demon King, it is a pleasure to serve you. 】
A crisp and lovely female voice came, and a series of transparent levitating frames appeared in front of Roy.
This voice is from the service terminal of the Demon King system, a magical creation similar to artificial intelligence, and everyone calls her Yumia. She is responsible for the service of the Demon King system and is responsible for the connection between all Demon Kings and the Demon Capital.
Yumia has a lot to offer.
For example, transmission, communication, identification, watching videos on the magic network, etc., is comparable to a computer.
The floating frames in front of Roy were the projections of Yumia in his sea of consciousness. Through these floating frames, he can intuitively see the information of the Demon King City and the information of his body.
Same as the games you played before you crossed over.
Yes.
Roy is a time-traveler.
Ten years ago, the soul penetrated to the Demon Capital, a magical void city, and spent ten years in it to become a demon king.
What the? Why did he become the Demon King? Don't want to go back to the original world? When you become a demon king, you can do whatever you want, so why want to go back to such an unrealistic question?
Look at the panel in front of you.
[The 101st-484250 Demon King]
[Name: Roy]
[Race: High Demon Race-El Clan (Purebred Bloodline)]
【Demon King Level: Apprenticeship】
[Combat Effectiveness Assessment: 356]
[Existing building coordinators: Demon King's Bedroom, Gathering Hourglass Lv1, Summoning Room Lv1, Magic Pool Lv1.] 】
[Demon King City's total asset assessment: 8500 element coins. 】
[Demon King into upgrade requirements: Demon King's combat power is more than 300; The total assets are assessed at 100,000 element coins; Population of 1k or more; 30 miniature hearts of the brave; Level 1 and above, 1 Elemental Core of each of the 6 Elemental Cores. 】
This information is vague and general, and can only give an approximate value.
"You're 250, you're 250......"
[I don't know what you're talking about, but you seem to be spitting fragrant fragrance.] 】
"Ahem, how could it be? Don't get me wrong. Miss Yuumiya, what is this? I've never seen anything like this. ”
Roy snapped his finger and pointed to the bottom of the message.
A strange button appeared there, which had not been available before.
[And without the weird button you said, are you teasing me?] 】
"No, no, no, maybe I'm dazzled."
Roy immediately changed his tune.
Don't mess with anyone.
Although it's just artificial intelligence, Yumia is notoriously black-bellied. The guy who was flirting with Yumia last time, when he sent some messages to his girlfriend, he sent them to the other party's father for some reason.
As a result, he was beaten so much that he didn't even know his mother, and he didn't know his mother.
Roy stared at the button for a long time.
It did exist, and he wasn't mistaken. Yumia has a dark belly, but she can't lie, she can't see it.
Roy reached out and lightly touched the button.
A somewhat familiar interface popped up.
"Huh? Cutaneous system? ”
