Chapter 175: New Version: Troubled Times
In the early hours of Monday morning, at five o'clock, the official website of Phantom World announced the details of this update patch.
System: Loaded with the latest expansion.
System: The evil god is coming, the troubled times are coming, the heroes are competing, and the curtain of the great era belonging to careerists is unveiled.
This version update is very dynamic, and many wild areas have undergone large-scale geographical changes, and natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions and earth fission have appeared frequently.
Because the frost of Yunlan City is the first evil god to be resurrected in the server, the changes here are not very big.
Instead, to the south of Fufeng City, the earth cracked, and a sinkhole suddenly appeared, and a green rancid wind overflowed from the cracks.
There, a group of corrupt shamans who believe in corrupt sects open a door to the underworld and transform it into a new copy.
And similar things, which happen frequently between cities, give players a sense of impending trouble.
After the update is completed, players will receive a notification from the system as soon as they go online: the empire is facing a huge challenge, and in order to suppress the rebels, the empire will give adventurers the power to recruit soldiers and expand their territories.
In fact, before this version update, the official website of Phantom World revealed a lot of relevant information, and many players in the big guild have basically prepared accordingly.
Among the updated contents, the most eye-catching is a new item - the Legion Flag.
The Legion Flag, a halo-type item, brings different team improvements depending on the quality and category.
The regimental flag is carried by the regimental commander, and a full regiment can hold up to 400 units, which just forms a 20x20 infantry phalanx.
All members of the legion, whether players or NPCs, can enjoy the attribute bonus of the banner, and the combat power will be increased in an all-round way.
There is another version update that matches the appearance of the Legion Flag - the system has opened a recruitment system, and now players can spend in-game currency and special resources to recruit NPC soldiers in the cities they live in!
This is what has been discussed on the official website forum, and recruiting NPC soldiers is a very exciting thing for players.
And after a little association, players began to guess that this was probably the system preparing for a large-scale national war for players in the later stage.
Just thinking about it makes people's blood boil, large-scale PK team battles, the scene is magnificent, what is more exciting than this!
In addition to the Corps Banner and the recruitment system, there is another update that has attracted the attention of high-end players, that is, the system has opened the lord mode.
Previously, players were basically only allowed to acquire real estate through purchase, but this was only for commercial gain.
And now, players are allowed to acquire unclaimed lands and become the lord of a territory recognized by the system!
The lords are currently divided into three major ranks, namely the lord of the village, the lord of the city, and the lord of the country.
The owner, as the name suggests, occupies a piece of land about the size of a novice village, and then establishes effective rule through the estate.
The lord of the city and the lord of the country are the players who own a city and the players who have established a legal country, respectively, and as soon as this setting comes out, the players are immediately upside down.
Build a city and build a country!
Ruling over tens of millions of people, above 10,000 people, being the king, even if it's just in the game, this is also refreshing!
The enthusiasm of the players was immediately mobilized.
And by the time Ning Yi waited until the night was launched, Yunlan City had already turned into a large barracks, and players came and went in a hurry, all of them were busy preparing for the war.
There are three cities: Yunlan, Lianhu and Fufeng, and the special classes are Shanlan Iron Guard, Qinglian Witch and Storm Shaman.
The production of special classes is fixed every week, and compared to the vast number of players, the number is extremely limited, and it is not enough points at all.
In the case of the Shanlan Iron Guard of Yunlan City, this kind of elite warrior wearing heavy armor and holding iron spears and tower shields has a standard weekly output of 200, and for each recruit, in addition to spending 200 taels of game currency, he must also pay for the unit's iron ingots and 100 merit points.
It can be said that the price is very high, but the combat power of the Shanlan Iron Guard is very amazing, basically equivalent to a level 30 knight wearing a full set of Huiyue quality armor, and the defense and blood volume are very powerful.
At this stage, for players who are extremely lacking in top-notch combat power, the Yamalan Iron Guard, a powerful infantry unit that can resist and fight, is a very good combat power supplement.
However, if you want to recruit special troops, money alone is not enough, players must also have the corresponding knighthood level.
For elite soldiers like the Yamalan Iron Guard, players must at least be nobles to be eligible to recruit.
The lowest-ranking lord can only recruit a maximum of 10, while a second-class baron like Ning Yi can recruit the famous mountain Lan Iron Guard.
So Ning Yi was not afraid of being taken first, as soon as he went online, he ran to the barracks in the west of the city and found the general of the city guard, an NPC general named Shen Hua.
"The last general, Shen Hua, has seen His Excellency the Baron."
Although Shen Hua is an imperial general, he does not have a title, so even if he has a 9-rank official body, he is still a second-class baron like Ning Yi, and he has to salute first.
"I'm going to recruit the Yamalan Iron Guard, and with my title, I should be able to recruit people."
originally thought it was a sure thing, but Shen Hua's answer made Ning Yi frown.
"I'm very sorry, Your Excellency, the Shanlan Iron Guard has been transferred by the City Lord, and he has also closed the recruitment function of the barracks on the grounds of the safety of Yunlan City."
Now don't say it's the Shanlan Iron Guard, Ning Yi is afraid that he can't even recruit an ordinary infantry here.
In addition to the Shanlan Iron Guard, the barracks of Yunlan City can also recruit ordinary classes such as militiamen, swordsmen, sword and shield soldiers, pikemen and archers, except for the militia, which is the most rubbish, the combat effectiveness of other infantry units is probably only equivalent to that of ordinary players at about level 20.
"It's stupid."
Ning Yi knew with his heels that this was a good thing that the king had done, and he used the power of the city lord to spare the recruitment system and temporarily gather troops in his own hands.
What seems to be a poisonous ploy to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle is actually to weaken the war potential of the other guilds in Yunlan City, and at the same time, it also puts itself on the opposite side of all players.
"Forget it, if you love to die, die."
The so-called public anger is difficult to offend, offending all players, and the position of the king king in this city lord will definitely not last long.
There were no soldiers recruited at the barracks, but Ning Yi had another plan, and he thought of Scareye.
In the slums of Yunlan City, there are still many thieves and assassins to recruit, and although these miscellaneous soldiers are slightly lacking in frontal combat ability, they are better than nothing.
When you think of it, you can do it, and now is a critical moment when every second counts.
Yunlan City, a slum area, in a bar that has been renamed a sharp axe, Ning Yi, who has changed into a cold cloak, suddenly appeared here.
The owner of the bar is a big guy with a lot of chest hair called Fat Bo.
When the wind chimes at the door were knocked to a clang, the first time he raised his head, he recognized Ning Yi.
Scareye is his boss, and Ning Yi is the boss's boss, so Fat Bo's expression was fierce just now, but at this time, he smiled as brightly as a chrysanthemum, and stepped forward to greet him with a flattering face: "Lord Absolute Sword." ”
"Where's Scareye?"
Ning Yi had a cold face, he didn't have a good face for these scumbags here.
"Here, I'll take you there."
Fatbo enthusiastically leads the way in front and walks up the stairs to the second floor of the bar, which is now the headquarters office of the Rat Gang, where Scareye keeps the entire Rat Gang running.
With a bang, the door to the study was pushed open.
Someone entered without asking, Scareye just wanted to get angry, and when he saw Ning Yi's cold eyes, he suddenly felt a spirit, and immediately stepped forward and saluted respectfully: "Lord Absolute Sword." ”
"You should have seen the orders of the Empire, I need an army now."
Ning Yi ordered categorically.
In Fantasy, ordinary players can recruit up to 20 NPCs as followers at level 20.
In the future, you can recruit 2 more NPCs for every 1 level, and in addition, you can also increase the number of NPCs by doing tasks.
Or Ning Yi, who obtains the imperial knighthood, and the second-class baron can increase the recruitment limit by up to 700 according to the system regulations.
Ning Yi is now a rank, and a total of 726 soldiers can be recruited, and the members of the Immortal Trace can be used as sharp knives, and the soldiers recruited from the system can be used as cannon fodder.
Scareye was the most well-informed snake in Yunlan City, and he knew where to find the talent Ning Yi needed.
In the slums, there is a lack of scum villains who lick blood with knives and heads.
Retired veterans, frustrated mercenaries, thieves and bandits who see money, these armed thugs who have been on the verge of death all year round, in terms of individual combat strength, I am afraid that they will not lose to the city guards of Yunlan City.
It's just that because they have not received formal training, their equipment is backward, and they are unfamiliar with the cooperation, when a large-scale battle breaks out, it is just a rabble after all.
However, it is not without good goods, Scareye happened to know a piece of news, and hurriedly stepped forward to report: "Lord Absolute Sword, a group of mountain barbarians have recently come to the city, the number is 120, they are all first-class warriors, tall and strong, and their arms are thicker than ordinary people's thighs." ”
Shanban is an uncivilized savage, because of the harsh living environment, their population is not large, but they can grow into adulthood in the desolate mountains, all of them are brave and aggressive warriors.
"Where are they?"
This was an unexpected joy, and Ning Yi's eyes lit up after listening to it, and he was very interested.
"Right at the sewage wharf, they drove away the Black Toad Gang that was originally entrenched there, but if they want to subdue them, they can't just have money......"
The mountain barbarians worship the strong, and they never mind being someone else's subordinate, provided that you can defeat the strongest of them.
The leader of this group of mountain barbarians, called Luo Ying, was a strong man with a height of more than 2.6 meters, covered in heavy body hair, standing up like a bear, and his weapon was a pair of plate axes.
