On the first day that the sand sculpture players disappeared, Li Wei still missed them a little.

Now that there is no player group in Shanhe City, it seems a little quiet.

From the end of the closed beta to the start of the open beta, it takes three days in real time, but according to the proportion of time in the game, it is about half a month.

In the past half a month, Li Wei has not been idle, he has refused the assistance of the Red Dragon Empire, but the huge mountain and river city always needs some NPCs to maintain normal operation.

First-order NPCs can be hired through the city lord function, but for more advanced second-order NPCs, Li Wei feels that this kind of talent should be given a certain amount of respect, how can it be measured by gold coins?

Looking at the second-order NPC in the hiring interface, the cost is 10,000 gold coins / month, Li Wei fell into deep thought.

This has nothing to do with money or not, he just feels that he can't use money to insult talents.

"I knew that I shouldn't have let Xu Tu's group leave..."

Li Wei let out a long sigh, the group of NPCs who were imprisoned at the beginning followed Xu Wei's Western Legion, and he knew that he should have let them stay.

I have saved their lives, and I should never talk to myself about things that hurt my feelings.

As for Elise, after she woke up for the second time, she did not make any drastic moves, but locked herself in her room, and seemed to have suffered a great blow.

Li Wei casually arranged for Han Qing to watch her to prevent her from making any drastic moves.

As for the casualty report on the defense of the city, Li Wei also submitted it directly, and of course the Bright Divine Court questioned why all the people died and wanted to send more people over, but Li Wei refused, saying that he didn't need it.

As Li Wei refused the request of the Bright Divine Court to be stationed, the Bright Divine Court did not publicly say anything, after all, Li Wei could be regarded as representing the royal family of the Red Dragon Empire.

But within a few days, Li Wei discovered that there were dozens or even hundreds of more garrison points near Shanhe City, and hundreds of thousands of legions of the Bright God Court were scattered, and then began to station, and there was a tendency to directly surround Shanhe City.

This is the predecessor of the so-called Novice Village...

"This group of dogs knows that they want to seize Lao Tzu's mountain and river city..."

Li Wei held his forehead, the Bright Divine Court was obviously going to embarrass himself,

With the appearance of this group of coalition forces of the Bright Divine Court, half of the Western Legion that originally remained here also began to retreat.

As for Xu Tu and the other group of NPCs who originally belonged to the Northern Legion, they were unwilling to leave with the Western Legion, because they had been in the North for more than ten years, and most of them were still locals, so they were naturally reluctant to leave their homeland.

So I found Li Wei.

asked to take the initiative to join Li Wei's mountain and river city,

This is a surprise for Li Wei.

These are all second-order NPCs, and their arrival can make a big difference.

Of course, this has nothing to do with money or not, others take the initiative to help, plus the previous friendship, won't it hurt to talk about money again?

Therefore, Li Wei naturally didn't care about those small actions of the Bright God Court.

Because he knows very well that the only eternal group that can dominate and change this world is the player.

As long as the open beta begins, whether it is the Red Dragon Empire or the Bright Divine Court, they will no longer be able to dominate the direction of this world after all, and they will eventually become history.

On the fourth day, Shanhe City welcomed a group of guests again.

is also a group of people belonging to the Bright God Court, the arrival of this group of people made Li Wei quite surprised, is the royal family of the Red Dragon Empire so wasteful?

Time and time again, let the factions of the Bright Court meddle in the affairs of the Border Army...

"This time, they are nominally building a magic circle that summons otherworldly creatures, but in fact, they still want to continue to infiltrate..."

Li Wei knocked on the table, Shanhe City is his territory, and his biggest concession is to accept some free aid NPCs from the Red Dragon Empire, as for letting the people of the Bright God Court come in?

Don't even think about it.

He didn't rush to meet this group of people, but came to Han Qing and Elise.

Han Qing was still eating chicken legs, and Elise was sitting by the window like a petrified sculpture, not knowing what she was thinking.

"The people of the Bright Divine Court are here."

Li Wei looked at Elise and spoke, but Elise was unmoved, as if she hadn't heard.

Li Wei: ......

At one point, he thought that maybe Elise was being played by herself.

If this continues, maybe Elise will take the initiative to embrace that the source of the darkness lies in herself?

Thinking of this, Li Wei couldn't help but take a cold breath, if this is the case, then it will be evil.

"Han Qing, look at her, don't let her make trouble."

Li Wei glanced at Han Qing, who was still gnawing on the chicken legs, and said, "If she runs out, you won't have chicken legs to eat in the future." ”

Han Qing was stunned for a moment, the chicken leg in his hand fell on the table, and he cried out again.

Li Wei: ......

"Okay, you Li Wei, you don't want to eat chicken legs for me a long time ago, do you?"

"Neuropathy."

Li Wei rolled his eyes and turned around and left directly.

Seeing Li Wei leaving, Han Qing instantly changed his face, nibbled on the chicken leg beautifully, and said vaguely: "For the sake of my chicken leg, don't run around." ”

"I'm leaving, you can't stop me."

Elise's empty eyes focused slightly, and her gaze fell on Han Qing's body, I don't know why, Han Qing's existence was a very strange existence for her.

The most direct feeling was to instinctively reject Han Qing, because she knew that Han Qing contained a power that did not belong to this world, that kind of power...

Disgust yourself, but... She didn't know what to do to Han Qing.

At this time, Li Wei saw the people of the Bright Divine Court faction this time, and there were about twenty people in the group, all of whom were existences above the second order.

Led by a Chen Chen's Bright Priest, who looked quite young, when he saw Li Wei appear, Chen Chen smiled and said, "Your Excellency Li Wei, it's an honor to meet you." ”

Li Wei nodded, in terms of position, he is a city lord anyway, but there is no need to put a low posture in front of the Bright Priest.

"Your Excellency Li Wei, I have already let them start the work of summoning the Otherworldly Magic Array." Chen Chen said calmly: "After the improvement of the Bright God Court, this summoning magic has become even better, but due to the limitations of materials, the formation of Mountain and River City can only summon three thousand otherworldly creatures. ”

Li Wei raised his eyebrows, three thousand...

Strictly speaking, this number is already a lot, after all, the appearance of 3,000 players in a novice village is already the limit of the peak.

Li Wei always felt that he wanted to be the village chief of a novice village, but Elise was too polite and insisted on making herself the city lord.

But since it is already a main city-level existence, but giving three thousand places, isn't this disgusting to yourself?

Li Wei's face instantly turned cold,

With the scope of Shanhe City, let alone three thousand players, even one hundred thousand players can accommodate it, but the Bright Divine Court does not dare.

Yes, they didn't dare to let such a large number of undead creatures appear in Shanhe City...

They had seen the combat power of those undead creatures from the other world, and they knew very well that if this kind of existence grew up and became directly exploitable by a certain force or even a certain person, it would have a great impact on the empire and the divine court.

Especially for Li Wei, who can skillfully communicate with the undead...

Chen Chen and Li Wei looked at each other, Li Wei guessed correctly, this is the Bright God Court deliberately reduced the quota of Shanhe City, otherwise it would start at least 10,000 places.

"It seems that the Bright Divine Court also has a heart." Li Wei said with a smile: "Three thousand places, I can really afford to be a Li person." ”

The implication is already obvious.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Li Wei, there are too many places to apply this time, and we don't have the materials available for a while."

Chen Chen's face did not change and said: "However, if the materials are sufficient, the Divine Court will make up for His Excellency Li Wei as soon as possible." ”

"Recently, in the vicinity of Shanhe City, dozens or even hundreds of garrison points have appeared."

Li Wei said with a smile: "If I'm not mistaken, these are all people from your Bright Divine Court." ”

"Your Excellency Li Wei, this is the result of the consultation between the high-level of the empire and the high-level of the Divine Court, the northern border has a very important strategic significance, and now the Northern Legion no longer exists, but the matter of guarding the border cannot be delayed, and Shanhe City does not have enough strength to assume the responsibility of the Northern Legion now."

Chen Chen said without humility or arrogance: "Of course, if Shanhe City has the strength to stand shoulder to shoulder with the original Northern Army, our coalition forces will retreat. ”

This ability to say things so satisfactorily that people can't find fault with them, even Li Wei can't help but praise him.

"Then this time will be a source of trouble for you."

Li Wei seemed to be smiling, the group of guys in the Bright Divine Court had a good calculation,

In the name of guarding the northern border, in fact, it is directly taking over the military power of the entire northern border, but it is because of its own existence, it is impossible to make the Bright Divine Court get its wish...

Blatantly suppressing himself, the Bright Divine Court still wants to be faced, no matter how he says that he is also on the side of the imperial royal family, he has just been rewarded on the front foot, and he will get himself down on the back foot, this kind of thing The Bright Divine Court wants to do, I am afraid that the imperial royal family will not allow it.

This is why Xu Tu and others took the initiative to come to Shanhe City, which must also have the influence of the empire secretly intervening.

"Now that the magic array has been set up, and there are still many official affairs to be dealt with in Shanhe City, I won't send you away."

In this matter, Li Wei did not continue to care, and directly issued an expulsion order.

Because he is not afraid at all, they have no idea what kind of creatures the player is like this group,

He is not afraid that there will be no players in Shanhe City, but he is afraid that Shanhe City will not be able to fit so many players by then...

The Bright Divine Court's calculations were good, but they underestimated their influence among the players.

Want to limit your development on the side?

Oh, naïve.
