Chapter 288: Prologue to the Beginning of Chaos (2)
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The split of Hugodi's players into two factions is not a bad thing for some of the indigenous nobles, but it is a good thing. Because they don't have a lot of interest in the player group, they think that the arrival of the player takes away what belongs to them.
However, splitting factions is definitely not a good thing for players, especially when Hugodi's various player territories are under pressure from the Drows. Although Chen Kai tried his best to prevent players from joining the Drow Elf camp, he really couldn't come up with much equipment and gold to reward players. On the contrary, the Drow elves not only disposed of the equipment they did not need, but also gained more troops.
The Xianghu Brotherhood, known as an army of 100,000, has definitely become a nightmare for all players' territories at this stage, even the Thor Guild does not have so many combatants, let alone five towns as territories. Although the Thunder God Guild led by Lin Lei is good enough, it doesn't mean that he can show the town without restrictions. You must know that the construction of a town in the game requires not real paper money, but in-game gold coins.
Although Lin Lei's Thor Guild is one of the largest player guilds in Greater China in the game, and its daily income has almost reached the point of making money every day, the expenses are also very large. At present, the income and expenditure are barely balanced, and it is the result of letting several villages keep selling southern grain to Chen Kai. If it weren't for Chen Kai's large-scale purchase of grain from the south to the dwarves, it is estimated that it would be difficult for the Thunder God Guild to break even, at least in the situation that the pit of Yadog's dissatisfaction still exists, it is very difficult to make up the income and expenditure.
However, when Chen Kai lost the dwarf's weapon supply, the grain trade of the Thor Guild had to stagnate, and it was not until the Zrow Elves began to buy grain that Xianghu Town's income and expenditure were gradually balanced. So if Lin Lei really chooses to take sides, he may not stand behind Chen Kai, in fact, if from the perspective of a guild leader, the chaotic Hu Godi is more beneficial to the Thor Guild. Because the Thor Guild had almost monopolized all the channels for selling grain to the Drow Elves, with Chen Kai's tacit approval, the grain entered the wilderness of Hugodi. Later, they were robbed in the wilderness, and the looters dropped the gold coins and took the food, which became almost the most common way for players to trade across factions.
Even such a trade began to expand from grain to other things. And the aboriginal nobles who had just been brutally ravaged by Edmund were powerless to stop it. Chen Kai didn't want to stop it for some reason. For him, a large camp of drow players is a threat, but it is also a good target to attract other Native nobles. At the same time, it is precisely because of Chen Kai's acquiescence that even the Drow elves began to acquiesce to the storage of Burkner Town, although the two sides will still fight on the border. However, there are very few indigenous forces, and most of the life-and-death conflicts are just players fighting each other. For the Drow also knew that without the acquiescence of the lord of Birkner, it would not have been possible for the grain to flow from the south into the territory of the Drow.
But if they had the chance, they would still choose to kill Chen Kai and then take advantage of the situation to capture the town of Burkner. It is far better to completely control a trade route in your hands than to be choked by others. It's just that Chen Kai's combat effectiveness is too strong. If it's just the player who besieges him, he won't be killed at all. In a month's time, Chen Kai's level has recovered from level 50 to level 60, thanks to the increase in the number of players in the Drow Elf camp, Chen Kai's level has recovered faster and faster, and the highest-level Su Xinghe has rushed to level 67.
Of course, Chen Kai, who stepped into level sixty again, except that his health value was lower than at the beginning, his attributes had not changed much compared to the beginning, but his fighting spirit and magic value were nearly a thousand points more than those who had stepped into level sixty before. After all, Chen Kai's level was lowered at the beginning, but he did not lose much of his hard work, of course, this is also because Chen Kai's level was reduced for special reasons. If other players take the initiative to die and be demoted like him, it is estimated that even if the fighting spirit increases, it will not be possible to reach Cheng Dù like Chen Kai.
It's just that when Chen Kai stepped into the sixtieth level, his level of promotion was greatly reduced. Even if he kills a player of the same level, he will not be able to gain experience, and he will not be able to reach the previous level. Because most of the players who stepped into level 60 were one order higher than Chen Kai, but now they were all at the same level as Chen Kai, but in the system evaluation, even if their level was higher than Chen Kai's, their strength was worse than him. So it's already a very good thing to be able to get twice the experience of monsters of the same level. And if you want to upgrade Chen Kai, unless you kill the 100,000 players in the entire Xianghu Town three times, you can recover to the level before death. But this is obviously impossible, even if those players stand and let Chen Kai cut Chen Kai, they don't have that body, the most important thing is that once Chen Kai appears, the players in Xianghu Town will either run away or directly mobilize two thousand people to encircle and suppress.
So now, Chen Kai can only secretly curse himself with the shrinking technique, and make his body as short as ordinary people, so that he can blend in with other players and level up with players in the Drow Elf camp, otherwise, Chen Kai will face hundreds of Xianghu Town players besieged.
With such a terrifying number of players, even if Chen Kai used a berserk stance, he would not be beaten to death, because after the large-scale gathering of players, the mage became the most terrifying turret, and it was very unfortunate that in order to kill Chen Kai, those spellcasters usually did not care about their own people and directly used powerful destructive spells to attack.
In the previous battle, when Chen Kai was revealed, those mage players who belonged to Xianghu Town actually directly used the powerful flame blaster wave and arcane chain lightning, if it wasn't for Chen Kai's reaction fast enough to directly release Donnie and reward the other party with a dragon's breath, it is estimated that Chen Kai would definitely be killed by these mage players in Xianghu Town.
Of course, where there are people, there will be battles, if all the 100,000 players are under the command of Li Xiangrong, not to mention Chen Kai, they can't eat or sleep at night, even their heads, and the Zhuoer elves can't eat or sleep. Because the number of players is so large that it threatens the drow elves themselves. Under such circumstances, Li Xiangrong's status is restricted, and the division of the entire Xianghu Brotherhood will become an inevitable outcome, and Li Xiangrong also understands this path very well and takes the initiative to propose this proposal.
Although the name of the divided Xianghu Brotherhood has not changed externally, it has completely changed internally, and the 100,000 players have been divided into nearly thirteen teams, of which less than half are commanded by the players. Of course, the most powerful of the thirteen teams is the main force of the Xianghu Brotherhood. And this unit is still firmly accused of being in the hands of Li Xiangrong. The Drow Elf also knew that if Li Xiangrong lost this force, then it would be of no use. So Ace? Lossing, though fearful, agreed. The thirteen teams are known among the players as the Thirteen Guardian Team. Although the name is very spoofed, it is very unfortunate that most players will admit it, and even start making team uniforms.
When the first batch of players wearing the uniforms of the Thirteenth Team of the Guardian Court appeared in front of the other players, even a very nervous person like Chen Kai was almost not shocked. For players who appear in front of them wearing black kimonos. The only feeling in Chen Kai's mind is whether these guys are brain-dead. In fact, there are not many people who have the same idea as Chen Kai, and even say that these players are brain-dead, but also that they are traitors. Of course, players in black kimonos are dressed like the real Gotei Juban, but they forget that it's a terrible thing to wear a cloth that doesn't have much defense in the game world.
So later, the so-called squad leader would hang a sign on his body to surface the identity of the team. The squadron leader will wear a white shoulder, and the captain will wear a white feather weaving, and there is no other resemblance except for the name of the thirteenth team of Xianghu Town. Of course, in Chen Kai's opinion, this is completely the embodiment of Sao Bao, at least Chen Kai will never appear on the battlefield in a white cloth suit, even if the cloth suit is said to be made of spider silk in the underground world, the defense power is no worse than some metal zuò chain mail.
Although Chen Kai didn't like this kind of white clothes very much, he had to admit that the spider silk produced in the underground world was a very good material for making zuò robes. These spider silk are magically transformed by special spells, mixed with mythril threads to weave into cloth robes, which have natural toxins, water elements and fire element resistance, this special magic spider silk mythril robe has become the standard configuration of the Burkner Town mage group, because after adding spells, this robe has a much better effect on mage protection and spell blessing than the previous robe demonized mythril robe.
In fact, Chen Kai most of the time reserved part of the channel for trading with Xianghu Town in the north in order to obtain these spider silks. Although it is a secret underground passage, every transaction is very secretive, but with the appearance of this robe, the spider silk in the ground has become a very straining thing. Because this spider silk itself is an important material for the drow elf mage to make zuò robes, if it is not for a relatively large production, it is estimated that it is impossible to buy it from the player in drow. But as more and more players show up their robes. The terrifying purchasing power of the caster began to be revealed, and the spider silk, which originally cost a roll of 100 gold coins at most, was fried to 1,000 gold coins a roll in less than a week. And it is also a market where the price continues to rise. On the one hand, it is because the effect of the drow on the player's mage is beginning to be sold, and on the other hand, there are also some reasons why some players are hoarding Juqi, at least Chen Kai is one of such speculators. In addition to supplying nearly 3,000 rolls of spider silk to the Berkner Town Mage Association, he also hoarded nearly 10,000 rolls of spider silk, with an original total price of more than one million gold coins, and the current price has directly increased tenfold.
If you look at the current price increase, the spider silk in Chen Kai's hand will skyrocket to 3,000 gold coins a roll in less than a month, and Chen Kai will get thirty times the huge profit. At the same time, the cost of a spider silk robe will also change from less than 1,000 gold coins to 30,000 gold coins. After all, it takes at least ten rolls of spider silk to make a magic robe, and if the cost of demonizing these spider silk is calculated, the cost of making a magic robe is originally only two thousand, but now it costs thirty-one thousand gold coins. The price of the materials needed to demonize spider silk has barely increased, but the price of spider silk has increased to the point that Chen Kai feels a little out of reality.
However, Chen Kai knew that no matter how the price of these spider silk changed, the spider silk in his hand would not depreciate, because no matter how low the price was, it would not fall below a hundred gold coins, and although the drow elves did not need gold coins, they would not give up such a large amount of wealth, because they also needed these gold coins now to ensure the interests of players loyal to them. In Chen Kai's opinion, if the price of these spider silks continues to rise, maybe he will have the money to recruit troops again.
"Boss! This time, we can start to equip with dragon scales, right? Fei Yun rubbed his hands and looked at Chen Kai, he naturally knew about Chen Kai's hype of spider silk, in fact, Chen Kai's spider silk business had other people's share. After all, it is unacceptable to eat alone, of course, Chen Kai will always be the majority, after all, who makes him have the most private money.
"If you want to be knocked out by that abyssal dragon who doesn't know where to hide, then go ahead and equip yourself with his dragon scales! Don't forget jì, even if you are suppressed in the temple. Those dragon scales are exuding an evil aura outward! If it weren't for Chen Yi's blessing of divine power all day long. Those scales have long since become a burden for the town of Burkner! Chen Kai rubbed his giant sword stained with the player's blood. In fact, if it weren't for the quick upgrade, Chen Kai wouldn't want to pk so many players. Although the rival faction players fighting each other will hardly make Chen Kai drop kindness points, on the contrary, because of the characteristics of Chen Kai's lord, the more players in the Drow Elf camp he kills, the more prestige he will gain, even if this prestige is at most a little, and many times it is an increase of a few tenths of a percent. However, in the process of Chen Kai's promotion to level sixtie, his lordship prestige and restoration to the state before his death even showed some of it.
"Boss! Don't be so alarmist, okay? The dragon has been gone for almost a month, and God knows if he's fallen asleep again! Speaking of which, what about the place in the abyss of the head jewel? And sent more than a dozen people to explore, but the result was that the original vein of the Gem Abyss was not found, and according to the current progress, it will not be possible to find the veins of the Gem Abyss in another month! The map records of the past are now of no use at all. God knows if those gem mines have fallen to the bottom of the abyss! If that's the case, it's not a hassle to mine a gem in the future! And will we be able to descend to the bottom of the abyss of gemstones? Fei Yun looked at the location of the gem abyss on the map, it was now a huge underground abyss, which did not mean anything to the town of Burkner, but no one would forget that two months ago, it was the most important economic pillar of the entire town of Burkner, and even affected the market for spell gems in the entire game world.
Now the price of gems in the entire game world has begun to grow wildly because of the complete closure of the gem abyss, almost directly back to the past price and continues to rise. At a time when no one knows when the Gem Abyss will be able to continue mining, there's nothing wrong with stocking up on more spell gems.
"If you really can't find it, forget it! We can't make a lifetime of money selling gemstones! Chen Kai rubbed his head, although he knew very well that if he really lost the Gem Abyss, he would definitely cut off a lot of money from Burkner Town, but at the same time, he also avoided a lot of trouble. Things sometimes have to look at two sides, the Jewel Abyss did bring a lot of wealth to Chen Kai and them, but it also brought huge troubles and hidden dangers. Chen Kai: They don't have the strength to keep their wealth. Maybe they can occupy the Gem Abyss for months or even years, but eventually they will all lose control of this place.
"That being said! But the loss of such a large source of money at once is really a blow to the Burkner Town finances! Our town is the main trade route between the north and the south. However, in the current situation, we can hardly receive much from the tax on the circulation of goods, and the finances will become very tight in the long run! Xu Fei shrunk in a chair and wrapped in a blanket, he was indeed majestic when he breathed against Edmonds, but the end was tragic. The more players he dies, the more serious the sequelae he will receive, and now he has been punished by the system attribute for almost a month, and he has not been able to make a good profit. The system may allow a player to instantly master many times the power of the current level, but the player will definitely have to pay a heavier price for it later.
"So what else can I do? If the Gem Abyss was really brought to the bottom of the abyss by that big reptile, we wouldn't have the power to mine it at all! Not to mention the almost impossible road to Guò, those creatures underground alone are not something we can deal with in the first stage! On that kind of terrain, let alone a dozen players, even hundreds or thousands are not enough for those underground monsters to kill! Chen Kai helplessly looked at the player report under the abyss in his hand, although there must be brave men under the heavy reward, but these brave men were not able to get the bounty alive. More than a dozen players who explored the underworld were all gameover.
"Keep exploring! If we really can't find it, then we have to give up! Announce to the outside world that the Jewel Abyss has been completely destroyed because of the battle! I think we'll be able to make some more money from those gems we keep in our hands! After Chen Kai finished speaking, he picked up the giant sword and walked out of the conference hall, and after he left, the others followed and walked out. Everyone knows that the abyss of gems represents a great fortune, but if you can't find it, it can only become a distant dream.
Chen Kai, who left the council hall, was soon cursed with the shrinkage technique with the help of He Liwen, and the others also changed their equipment or makeup. There is no way, the equipment and image of the group are too eye-catching, if they do not modify and appear directly in front of the players in Xianghu Town, it is estimated that it will not be long before two thousand people will run to encircle and suppress. After all, Chen Kai's head is too valuable, 500,000 gold coins! Fei Yundu discussed with Chen Kai the urge to exchange his head for money! Of course, his own head is also worth as much, and the reward of 100,000 gold coins will definitely be an amount of money that will make players in the same camp blush.
