Although after some time of fighting, most of the assassins were eliminated at the cost of Chen Kai himself acting as a terrorist, and because of Kai Pu? Lochemanster's death caused the remaining Assassins to flee. This made the whole town of Berkna finally settle down a little, of course, the so-called stability was only temporary, because the flesh of the Jewel Abyss was too fat.

Chen Kai's foundation in the game is too shallow, and their strength is inadequate to the players in the entire Hansting Empire, not to mention the most powerful aboriginal aristocratic forces in the game. After knowing that the person behind these assassins was the Grand Duke, Chen Kai and the others all knew that it would be difficult to completely settle down in the future.

Even if this time it almost uprooted the Grand Duke's power from the town of Burkner, but that was only part of what was exposed. Who knows how many hidden spies are among the nearly 40,000 aboriginal residents in Burkner Town, and even Chen Kai is worried that his guards have those spies sent by the big nobles.

It's a pity that even if Chen Kai is worried about him, there is nothing he can do, first of all, there are too few people he can trust. After all, Chen Kai didn't think that they would develop such a big industry when they entered the game, and at this time, everyone knew that the more people, the better, but Chen Kai had no way to establish a trade union. Because he didn't build the Knights at the beginning of the game, it's too late to do so. The large number of aboriginal cavalry had already filled up Chen Kai's knight order, and even Chen Kai had to change the name of the soldier to include him in the ranks of the squire.

There is no way to set up a knight order, so naturally it is impossible to recruit players as helpers, although Chen Kai can recruit players from Burkna Town as soldiers in the form of quests, and even recruit some players as patrols. However, he had no way to restrain these players elsewhere, because their relationship with Chen Kai was just a task and interest relationship in the game.

In the game, the strongest relationships between players are friends and family, followed by organized guilds, and finally loose zero-hour squads. The upper echelons of the entire Berkner Town are basically dominated by Chen Kai's adventure team. and then cooperated with some of Hu Lansi's classmates and Su Xinghe's old friends. The number of these people combined is not more than 100. Although Hulans had a large group of classmates who wanted to run to the town of Burkner. But Chen Kai didn't dare to take them. After all, no one knows how many of these people are eating and drinking, and the combat effectiveness of the student army is too difficult to measure.

The most important thing is that most of the positions in Burkner are occupied by the natives, and even if Hulans's classmates come, there is no place to arrange them. As for arranging them to be soldiers, well! As mentioned earlier. The combat effectiveness of the student army is very problematic. Eight out of ten use non-bloody mode to fight, and the average combat power can only be calculated low, if it weren't for this, Hurance and tens of thousands of them would not have been chased like dogs by Count Hugodi's five thousand iron horsemen in a single attack. There are also thousands of spellcasters in the tens of thousands of player troops, and the combined combat power of these casters can completely delay the onslaught of those cavalry. Bringing the troops back from the chaos. However, in that battle, the player in front couldn't even buy a spell time for the caster behind him, and the shield guardian in front collapsed first, and then the one-sided rout was directly covered up.

However, Chen Kai still plans to develop the strength of the players in Burkner Town, and use the power of players to contain the huge aboriginal group in Burkner Town. After all, compared to these aborigines, Chen Kai is an outsider like most players after all, even if they agree that Chen Kai is the owner of this territory, but loyalty is still an issue after all. There are only a few thousand people in the entire territory who are truly loyal to Chen Kai, and this is because of the reason why Drake led the troops, and what makes Chen Kai depressed is that most of the soldiers who are loyal to him are bandits and horse thieves, that is, the horse thieves who were recruited by him are even more loyal to Chen Kai than those veterans who followed Chen Kai to Burkner Town.

This is probably because these veterans are not like those horse thieves who have been recruited, and once they lose the lord Chen Kai, they will be wanted again. Therefore, the veterans' loyalty to Chen Kai is definitely not as high as those horse thieves.

The above is basically the internal worries of Burkner, and the commodity trade gradually rose in Burkner after the southern trade route was roughly opened. The standard of living in the whole town has improved a lot. At least Chen Kai doesn't have to nibble on bread and drink broth every day to get by, and the vegetables and fruits on the table are finally sufficient. However, the monsters that appeared on the southern trade routes from time to time were still the enemies that posed the greatest threat to the trade routes, and of course, the greater danger to Chen Kai and them was definitely not those ugly-looking monsters, but the former allies who peeked into the abyss of gems around them.

As a close neighbor of Burkner, Chen Kai's neighbors are not a good thing, at least in Chen Kai's opinion, those unfriendly neighbors had better be all destroyed. For these player alliances who are not enough to succeed and more than to lose, and will not only delay their feet at critical moments, but even want to stab you in the back, Chen Kai definitely doesn't even owe a smile.

If it were possible, Chen Kai would love to buy off the assassins of the Thieves' Guild and kill all the presidents of the Players' Guild. While Chen Kai was fighting in the underworld, the guild leaders and Chen Kai's enemies wanted to kill Chen Kai in one fell swoop. When Chen Kai killed Count Hugodi, these guys began to run out again to snatch the fruits of victory. If it weren't for Chen Kai not completely killing Count Hugodi, it is estimated that they would be disgusting to become Chen Kai's subordinates, but now Chen Kai feels that these guys are even more disgusting.

When he faced the threat of assassination, the two player guilds that were closer to his territory suddenly sent troops to approach the border of the two territories, occupying the territory that originally belonged to Chen Kai little by little. If it weren't for the cavalry troops led by Drake who often patrolled outside, perhaps he would have lost at least a hundred acres of land by the time Chen Kai was inadvertent.

For such behavior, Chen Kai directly asked Drake to fight back, and under the crazy crushing of the cavalry troops, those player troops who originally wanted to take advantage were chased and killed. Of course, Drake was still more restrained and did not rush to kill, although some players were killed by attacking Drake's cavalry, but most of them escaped the border and ran back to their territory.

If this kind of thing is only once, it will be forgotten, but it will happen one after another in the following time, which makes Chen Kai very angry. But he couldn't send troops across the border to kill the territory of the players' guilds, because according to the leaders of these players' guilds. Those who came to occupy the territory were not the armies of the territory, but the idle people. For such a statement. Chen Kai had no other way than to raise his middle finger and scold those guys for being shameless. For these idle people, Chen Kai didn't even use killing them. When the overwhelming slanderous posts appeared on the Internet, Chen Kai even had the urge to wave a weapon and cut people.

Chen Kai has no way to deal with the mouth cannon on the Internet, first, he will not take the initiative to defend himself, and secondly, Chen Kai has really not done anything about hiring a water army. Therefore, everyone, including Xu Fei, can only choose to ignore the posts on the Internet and concentrate on dealing with those so-called idle people in the game. Of course, if only relying on killing will bring a negative impact on Chen Kai, at least his reputation among players will not be very good. So in the end, Chen Kai came up with a solution that was not a solution, that is, to spend money to hire those idle people in the mouth of the player guild leader to run into their territory to occupy territory.

Although in terms of cost, the cost of those neighbors in the north to send out miscellaneous people is much lower than that of Chen Kai, but with Chen Kai's task of recruiting miscellaneous people, those neighbors in the north can't bear it. Because of his financial resources with Chen Kaibi. That's completely because the old birthday star eats arsenic and thinks it will be long. With the mining of gem abyss gradually on the right track, coupled with the stable price of spell gems in the market, Chen Kai's wealth is growing at a rapid rate of two or three million gold coins per month after paying off his debts. This is the pure gold coin income after excluding taxes, and when other players' territories are still losing money, Chen Kai has completely turned losses into profits. Of course, the previous investment has not been fully filled, but as long as Chen Kai is given a period of time, then it will no longer be a dream for him to accumulate tens of millions of gold coins in his pocket.

Even after Chen Kai and Chen Kai issued the task of recruiting idle people, the gold coins in his vault still increased instead of decreasing. Because the players recruited didn't need to cost Chen Kai much money at all, but those players in the north couldn't bear it, and they didn't have that much money in their pockets. Because the rewards for the tasks offered by Chen Kai are about to make the players of their own guild take the initiative to go to work for Chen Kai, and then grab the territory of their guild.

In such a situation. These player leaders have no other way to go than to run around in the dust and beg for mercy. Because according to their own words. These miscellaneous people were not sent by them on their own initiative, and Chen Kai was not stupid enough to recruit idle people in the game, but in reality, posting and recruiting was just in the game. In the face of Chen Kai's approach, the guild leaders of these players guilds couldn't get a handle in the game at all, because Chen Kai didn't leave any official credentials in the game. As for posting rumors outside the game that Chen Kai doesn't give money, it's almost impossible to slander Chen Kai, because everyone knows that the player lord thief in Burkner Town is rich and counts, and the most important thing is that Chen Kai is now a celebrity in reality. At least his in-game character Kaichen? Saint? Lapston? Baron Berkner is in the top 10 in the player power rankings, and this reputation is far more convincing than the denigrating posts.

"! A bunch of cheap bones! Looking at the player leader who had just left the Lord's Mansion, Chen Kai showed deep disdain, but he knew very well that the other party was only temporarily retreating, and the greed for the Gem Abyss would make them strike again. Chen Kai didn't have anything to do about it,

"That's it! Don't talk about it, boss! Who gave us a gem abyss? Fei Yun was sitting in the office of the Lord's Mansion, he had just returned from the Underworld this morning. Of course, it was not only the new batch of purple iron armor that was brought back, but also Chen Kai's new armor, but the appearance of the new armor was still the prototype of the original double-headed lion armor, but a pair of metal wings were added.

In this way, Chen Kai's armor looks like a two-headed lion with wings when it is not assembled, and this pair of metal wings is not just an ornament, if Chen Kai's fighting spirit is strong enough, then it can drive the pair of wings to fight. It's a pity that all he can do now is to urge the Dou Qi to make the pair of wings open and close, or block it in front of him as a shield or something, and the Dou Qi consumed each time is three or four hundred points high. This kind of consumption made Chen Kai feel unbearable, and the only good news was estimated to be that these wings that used purple iron to adhere to the obsidian lapis fragments had extremely high defense. At the same time, it looks like the color is also very gorgeous, the black-gold obsidian lapidis shards and the purple-gold purple iron create a very gorgeous effect, and with the extremely exquisite forging process of the black dwarf, almost every piece of metal feather seems to grow. So when Chen Kai put on this armor. Everyone felt that Chen Kai had become even more sassy.

The only thing that dissatisfied Chen Kai was that the amplification attribute of the armor was almost no different from the original. Only 2 points have been added to Strength. Increased agility by 5. The current strength stat is 40, stamina is still increased by 49, agility is 36, and spirit is +23. The attribute of the additional attribute that reduces the consumption of Dou Qi by 20% has not changed, but because of the loss of the Dou Qi Bead, the original 3000 points of Dou Qi defense effect is no longer there. Of course, because of the extra lapid wings, the overall defense of the entire set of armor is at least several times that of the past.

In the past, the armor of the two-headed Lion Kai only had 400 defense, but now it has reached 2000 points. That is, even if Chen Kai does not use Dou Qi to defend. He can also easily rely on his armor to block attacks with damage of less than 2000 points, and even absorb the impact of the attack. What's even more terrifying is that when Chen Kai blocked the pair of purple gold ink-black wings in front of him, he could even block Su Wanlong's spear piercing without injury. You must know that Su Wan's dragon spear has a sharpness value of more than 7, but in the face of the purple gold wings with this obsidian lapis fragment attached, there is no way to wear the defense of this pair of wings. Therefore, Chen Kai with the protection of the new armor can be said to be very safe, but before he is invincible, Chen Kai has to pay for the black dwarf's armor forging in addition to being familiar with this pair of wings. That's nearly five hundred tons of pure white flour, and the price per ton is more than two thousand gold coins, and five hundred tons plus the forging fee is one million gold coins.

This is a very large amount of money, and it is not a trivial matter to get together 500 tons of flour, even if the grain production capacity of the southern region is very strong. However, it would take a long time to transport more than 500 tons of pure white flour at once. Therefore, Chen Kai's debt has been repaid, and the black dwarf will not accept the gold coins on the ground. They even took the initiative to give Chen Kai money, hoping that Chen Kai could help them buy on their behalf. It's a pity that even if the dwarf gives more gold, Chen Kai will not be willing to make this transaction, because the dwarf gives gold bricks instead of gold coins. Gold Bricks were worthless in the Hansting Empire, and only gold coins with the Empire's exclusive minting patterns and fiat gold coins issued by other countries had real purchasing power.

As for using weapons and armor as equivalents to buy, Chen Kai had no way to accept it, he exchanged it for food himself, it was nothing, but let Chen Kai be a weapons merchant to buy and sell weapons and equipment, and it was estimated that Prime Minister Capello would first find Chen Kai. Although there are also black dwarves' weapons and equipment for sale in Burkner Town, it is small-scale, and once weapons and equipment are exchanged for food on a large scale, Chen Kai will definitely not be able to eat and walk around. So even if Chen Kai knew that it was very profitable to be a middleman for black dwarves, he didn't dare to do that, so he could only sell it little by little, and it was still in small batches.

After obtaining the new armor, Chen Kai still didn't run out to take risks, because he didn't have time to go out at all, and the only thing he could do was stay in the Lord's Mansion to deal with more and more things. Because of the connection between the north and the south trade routes, the town of Burkner, as a traffic hub, gradually became important. In less than two months after the trade route to the southern region was opened, Chen Kai collected more than 300,000 tolls in the southern fort. The toll fee of ten silver coins per person is definitely not high, and in these two months, the players and aboriginal caravans have combined to more than three million people.

No matter which way you look at it, the great development of Burkner Town is close at hand, as long as Chen Kai is given a period of time, then he will become very rich. Because he could earn a lot of money just by collecting tolls, but unfortunately this didn't last long. When the players are comfortable, the system will immediately release some tasks to keep the players busy, because once the players are comfortable for too long, they will get bored and reduce the lifespan of the game. This is the reason why most games are constantly being updated, because they need to keep players fresh and retained. Of course, for the game Etiya, players will always feel that the world is too big and there are many things that have not been discovered, and for Chen Kai, things are even more so. The days when they counted the money until they were soft were the happiest days, but they didn't last long.

In fact, Chen Kai has always known that the Hugodi territory has never been calm, first of all, the biggest hidden danger is the huge hole connected to the underground world in the old city of Hugodi, and most of the players who stay in Burkner Town level up in the old town of Hugodi. At the same time, Chen Kai did not relax his surveillance of this area, even if he had to pass through the territory of several player lords to reach the old city of Hugodi.

However, when something really happened in this place, Chen Kai was still the last of all the player lords to know, because he was too far away from the old city of Hugodi. (To be continued.) )
