Chapter 206: Chapter 3 of the Covenant
The target location was the City of Friendship, but Drew managed to gain some power during his journey.
Drew's negotiation with his players was certainly not very "friendly". Drew made the most of his privilege of having the right to introduce himself to fight for the first one, and then his teammates were agreed to by Drew's ingenious language art and inertial thinking, and even a shrewd Gillentina was blindfolded by Drew's language trap and agreed to all of Drew's requests.
First, he is in charge of the gold coins of the team members.
Before entering the City of Friendship, they entered the Goblin Bank in one of the towns on their way. Each team member must deposit every penny of the gold in their pockets into the Goblin Bank, and hand over the bank card and adventurer dog tags with the ability to withdraw money to Drew to manage.
The maximum amount of spending per person per day from the day of entering the city is 1 gold, and the amount of Hakvar as a mage is 3 gold. The gold coins are distributed by Drew out of his own pocket in the early morning of each day, and then repaid after the tour. If necessary, you must first apply to Drew, and if the application is approved, you will be able to take more gold from Drew.
Of course, if they can earn some extra income when they play in the City of Friendship, then this part of the income does not go to Drew.
Second, after entering the city, all the dinners were invited by Drew as a landlord.
It's true that the food in the City of Friendship is cheaper than elsewhere, but that's not to say there aren't grades. Even if there are 4 levels for ordinary civilians, for ordinary businessmen and small nobles, for big nobles, and for big bosses, if you calculate carefully, it is not at all what Drew, the hand-shaking shopkeeper, can know, and Drew swears that the business acumen of the goblin clan will not be able to catch up even if he is a traverser with a lot of business knowledge in his previous life.
In order for his teammates to fully enjoy the food of the City of Friendship, and for the sake of their meagre gold stock compared to Drew, Drew took over the most money in the name of shopping and gambling.
Third, you can't go to the gambling area at will, and if you go without permission, you don't treat Drew as a teammate!
When you want to go to the gambling area, you must get Drew's permission, and let Drew take everyone to experience it. Drew remembered that unless he was a heinous villain, a Gold-level professional could receive the equivalent of 20 gold coins for free in the gambling area. These special chips cannot be exchanged for coins, but can be used to gamble in all gambling areas and enjoy some services. This is, of course, the strategy of the goblin profiteers after hearing Drew's fishing theory, and how to get the guests to leave more gold......
Not to mention these ideas used to trick people, Drew's team currently has Drew and Marr 2 Gold Tier, and the free chips that can be obtained are 40 gold. COUPLED WITH THE SPECIAL CHIPS OF NEARLY 200 GOLD COINS THAT DREW HAD BEEN IN HIS HANDS IN THE EARLY YEARS IN THE NAME OF TESTING THE EFFECT BUT DIDN'T USE MUCH, UNLESS SOMEONE ON THE TEAM HAD TO MAKE A BIG GAMBLE IN THE AREA WHERE THE HIGHEST AMOUNT OF DEATH WAS GOING TO DIE, HE COULD REALLY HOLD THE SCENE.
Of course, because of these unequal treaties, Drew heard a lot of complaints from his teammates on the road.
"You damn miser, were you born of the wrong race? I guess you should have been born from the greenskins and not from the flowers! If I want to drink some wine, I have to apply to this world with you! ”
This is a dwarven heavy warrior who has an infinite reverie for wine, so he has a grudge.
"Wow, isn't this our great golden-colored iron rooster, Archpriest Lexa Falcon? Why don't you leave our mercenary card alone and read a book here? Is the diet of our team limited to 1 gold coin today? ”
This is the captain, who is angry that his plans for a shopping frenzy have been thwarted, and the way he stares at Drew does not seem to be any different from the way he stares at his father's killer.
"You've ruined my life in pink and peachy township, and you've ruined my idea of going to the casino to make a little money! Money and women are the bulk of a man's life, and you snatched it away from me! How do you compensate me Lexa? ”
Needless to say, it's because you can't find a woman and the gray professional who is in a hurry, but you really think that your point of a thousand means will work in the City of Friendship?
"Lexa, how about 3 gold coins a day? I can't even buy the most basic enchantment tools for 2 gold coins, let alone the gold-tier equipment, books, magic scrolls, and other materials I want. I've heard that Maple City has a lot of merchandise, and you can't cut off the path of a future archmage for your evil greenskin-like thoughts! ”
This is Mr. Mage, who will never have enough gold. Isn't this guy going to the City of Life? Why did you become a crowd of people who want to go shopping again? You're a male mage with status, not a guy who can have fun shopping with the ladies, right?
"I want to taste some delicious desserts, I want to buy some beautiful clothes, I want to buy some rare cosmetics, I want to buy elven jewelry...... Ah, one gold coin is not enough for me! Do I still have to work there? No, Lexa, give my coins back! ”
"Do you want to pay it back?"
“……”
This is an archer who goes crazy once a day. The way she looked at Drew was no different from when she was begging for food. Of course, if she had the beauty of the country, maybe Drew would have been able to be knocked down by this cute ray, but unfortunately she was a very, very ordinary human girl.
The biggest reason why Drew risked being harassed by his teammates every day was that he wanted to leave some gold for these very good-natured teammates in exchange for several crises this year. As the initiator of the city's construction, he knows too well the city's ability to absorb gold, and after several years of operation, the goblins have already raised this ability to attract gold by several grades.
"When you enter the City of Friendship, the gold in your pocket no longer belongs to you, the gold in your bank card does not belong to you, and even the magic equipment or potion scrolls on your body probably do not belong to you."
This is a quote that Capapachi Gold Coin said to Drew last year to describe the City of Friendship, and to be honest, some nobles of the Shenghui Empire have secretly said that this City of Friendship has become more terrifying than the Goblin Clan's Fite World Commercial Center Gold Coin City, and has become a city where money is willing to be left behind.
If it weren't for a hidden boss like him in the team, the adventure group that was fluttering because of the support of the priest would have been wiped out when it first encountered the black adventurers, and there would not have been anything embarrassing and abnormal by a Mithril-level green shadow python.
Of course, this also has a lot to do with the sudden appearance of him, a golden-level priest, there. If it weren't for the appearance of a daddy like him, Gillentina and the others would not have bred the idea of improving their own strength and ended themselves in a dangerous place. They will linger on the periphery of the Green Shadow until something changes to the team.
It's a pity that Drew's thoughts don't seem to be understood by his teammates yet. Even if some people may have noticed something abnormal, they will definitely use self-hypnotherapy in this case - and have fun besieging Drew with everyone. Anyway, it's boring on the road, so why not have some fun?
The teammates' enjoyment of Drew's taunts was even more pronounced when Drew was cooking the food, and a bunch of inhuman guys were watching Drew, one in clothes, one in wine, one cake in another, and a woman in the other, so that Drew almost went crazy - mixing a bottle of laxative and putting it in the soup to shut up the over-energetic guys. If it weren't for Gillentina, who realized that the situation was wrong, and the others quickly disappeared around Drew in time to repair the carriage, they would have been able to enjoy the power of the laxative specially made by the Holy Apothecary one day.
In order to reduce the harassment from these over-energetic teammates, Drew took out his special move - pulled out a special set of poker and a piece of paper with a lot of rules written on it and threw it at them. Since they are all called the father of gambling, they don't have a bit of a townsman on them, then I'm sorry for the title, aren't they?
In fact, this kind of poker was made by Drew at the request of Jamilia and his sisters when he was still a teacher at Brilliant City Academy, and in addition to being entertaining, it can also be used to practice fighting spirit and magic control skills. After that, Drew thought that this kind of thing was really good, so he made a few more sets and distributed them to some of the big guys.
The principle is very simple, this kind of poker can have a gravity magic array, and it will become very heavy if you don't input a certain amount of fighting energy or magic power. When you play cards, you have to pick up the cards and look at them, so you always have to keep a certain amount of vindictiveness or magic on the cards you are holding. This little invention not only quickly won the strong support of Gemilia, a cultivator lazy, but also quickly spread among the elite children of their own power after those bigwigs discovered its potential.
Of course, this kind of poker is not without its drawbacks. Because of the depiction of the gravity change magic array, there is no means to prevent mental power detection or vindictive energy detection on this kind of poker, so it is really simple to play superpower poker. The year before last, there was a phenomenon in Drew's house where the dragon elder, the next dragon patriarch, the Titan elder, and the young Sword Emperor played superpower poker together. Fighting spirit, magic power, spiritual power, and detecting anything are trivial, and everyone can use corresponding means to defend them. Observing each other with the unique and powerful insight of the Holy Order, which is used to probe the rules, is the point, and this is really difficult to guard. Of course, prophecy magic and magic occasionally appear, and the friendly act of playing poker has completely turned into a competition of strength.
Of course, there will not be such a strong phenomenon among Drew's teammates, there will only be a situation where mayflies are deliberately caught by everyone and cause countless laughs.
