Chapter 82: It was possible to do this

"Questions?"

Mayor Bucktooth shook his head: "There is no problem with the problem, [Gathering the Power of the People] is an absolutely safe force. ”

Zhang Li touched his chin and thought carefully: "Tell me everything about [Gathering the Power of the Crowd]." ”

Mayor Bucktooth hurriedly spoke.

The so-called gathering of the power of the people is the power of gathering the power of the people to bless the ruler of the territory.

The more people you rule, the more power you can gain.

This is a rule unique to this world, a means of world consciousness, in order to let some strong people protect the people under their rule.

Azmoyagrat, the world consciousness of this desperate world, in order to make the number of creatures in his world more numerous, thus giving this world unique rules.

Because when the number of living beings decreases, it will also cause great trouble to the world consciousness, and even reduce the world itself.

In this desperate world, few people are willing to help the weak for no reason, so that they can continue to survive, or even kill for their own appetite.

Therefore, when the weak gather in a pile, the power of the crowd begins to be born, and when countless weak people gather, it can also give birth to an extremely strong person.

In order to maintain his strength, this strong man needs to deal with the threats of countless weak people, so as not to reduce his number and thus weaken his own strength.

This is a blessing for the weak in this world, but for this strong man, there are traces of shackles.

It is a kind of exchange, where the weak surrender their strength and the strong give protection.

"Becoming the lord of a region and gaining the power of the people under his rule has certainly improved his strength, but he also needs to maintain his territory and ensure its survival, otherwise if the territory is destroyed when he becomes a lord, the lord will naturally suffer a great backlash."

The mayor of Bucktooth lowered his head and looked at Zhang Li: "Excuse me, are you willing to become the mayor of our Tooth Seal Town?" ”

With cautious words, Mayor Bucktooth asked softly.

"Will there be any trouble in becoming a lord? An ordinary person who becomes a lord can directly become a person like you? ”

Zhang Li did not immediately agree, but continued to ask.

"Nope." Mayor Bucktooth hurriedly shook his head, "Obtaining the power of the crowd is not a never-ending growth, generally speaking, only the person who ignites the strength of the flame can withstand the power of the crowd of a small town, and can rely on this power to reach the level of igniting the second flame." ”

There is a limit to the power of the crowd, and this limit depends on the strength of the lord himself.

Generally speaking, the power blessed by the power of the crowd is generally about three to five times the strength of the lord, if an ordinary person suddenly becomes the lord of a territory, then he can only get the blessing of several times his own strength, and more of the power of the crowd will only collapse and cannot be obtained by others.

Zhang Li suddenly remembered that when she first met Maria, she had said that there would be battles between towns, plundering other people's resources and reducing their own population, perhaps because the mayor who provoked the battle thought that there were too many people in his territory and that he would not get more benefits, so he simply dealt with it.

Of course, there may also be a lack of food resources, which is also the disadvantage of pooling power - if you want to have more power, you have to feed more people, so you have to have more food!

In this desperate world, food is precisely an extremely critical condition, restricting countless people from going further!

In addition, the power of the crowd can not only be obtained by the lord alone, in the territory, there will also be a fixed number of positions, and you can also get a certain amount of the power of the crowd, but these positions can only be given by the lord.

At the same time, the territory can also bless its own army, so that they can also gain a certain increase in strength.

The stronger the territory, the more blessings it can bring to the army and officials, and at the same time make the territory stronger.

"However, the gathering power given by the territory can only cover the area around the territory, and the farther away from the territory, the less blessings you will receive."

"That's why a town like ours survives, otherwise it would have been annexed by a much more powerful region." ”

The town of Bucktooth Mayor Tooth is very weak, and it can even be said that it is the weakest town here.

Don't look at the team of hundreds of people around him now, but there are not many who have the strength, and even if there are those who light the first flame, they are the weakest among them.

To put it simply, the people who lit the flames here all relied on some non-mainstream methods, although they temporarily obtained the strength bonus brought by lighting the flames, but basically the future has been blocked.

But such a small town can also have a certain defensive ability in the face of some powerful enemies, which is the effect brought by relying on the power of the crowd.

However, it is true that the town itself is weak, and even if it can withstand the attacks of others, it does not mean that the town will always be safe and sound.

If you want to get more resources, you always have to go out, and after leaving the town, of course, their strength will also weaken, and when they fight other towns, they will naturally be at a disadvantage.

And in order to obtain a certain amount of resources to survive, the people of Yayin Town have long been accustomed to groveling, and even do a lot of all kinds of cannon fodder things, if it weren't for the fact that there are many weak people who have been driven out by other towns to supplement, Yayin Town would have been unable to support it, and finally perished in this desert.

Zhang Li thought it was strange when he heard it, because he did hear some negative effects about the power of the crowd, but there was one thing that the mayor of Bucktooth had not explained to himself so far.

"Why did you hesitate to invite me? What are the downsides for me? ”

"This ......," said Mayor Bucktooth, realizing that it was really inevitable, and lowered his head, "we are not in a good position here. ”

Everyone has expectations for the future.

To be able to become the head of a town, his own strength is already ahead of countless people, at least the people who lit the flames, such a character is absolutely unwilling to be bound to a mere Yayin Town.

Because once you become the lord of a certain region, the future has to be tied to this territory.

And wanting to let someone else take over the power of his lord is basically a fatal blow to the previous lord.

Either die, or lose most of your power, and never have any potential or future again.

Zhang Li frowned, didn't care about the others, but looked at the mayor of Bucktooth.

Letting someone else take the place of his mayor has such a big negative effect, according to his own words, once Zhang Li becomes the mayor of Yayin Town, then this mayor of Bucktooth will immediately fall directly from his current strength to the point where he is no different from being disabled.

He was willing to do such a thing?
