141. Road management
Out of caution and not wanting to let go of the mentality of a suspected pseudo-person, Li Aozi chose to go to the target location of Huihe a day in advance.
He wore a plaid shirt and jeans, a hat, and a scarf wrapped around his neck, like a Red Arrow farm worker.
When he drove the tractor to his destination, there was a sea of people around him, which made Li Oz suddenly surprised.
"I didn't expect it to be here."
The white obelisk standing between heaven and earth is close in front of you, obviously it is the off-season for tourism, but it is full of tourists, and the farms and houses of local residents have been transformed into homestays and hotels.
Due to the large number of foreign populations, the city of Elga had to transfer its own police officers, so that tourists could visit and tour in an orderly manner under the transfer of police.
Li Oz parked the tractor and blended into the crowd, in addition to stepping on the spot, this time he was able to get close to the specific situation of the road building.
After half a year of construction, there are already some simple amusement facilities here, an observation deck has been set up on the high hillside, the original farmland has also been bulldozed, surrounded by a white obelisk, and a sunken square has been dug out, which can accommodate up to 3,000 people to watch, which is not small in scale.
The height of the obelisk is not low enough to be seen from afar, and in order to highlight its holy miraculous aura, the person in charge of the facility kept several cages of pigeons, which were released and retrieved at regular intervals.
The construction of water conservancy facilities is also very complete, the villagers bypass the river to decorate this side more beautifully, and also dig an artificial lake for tourists to rent boats to play and watch.
But Li Oz looked at it for a long time and found a problem.
He originally thought that the main tourist force who came here should be the majority of transcendents, at least mortals who have the desire to become transcendental, but after looking around, Li Aozi found that the most were families traveling with babies.
Li Oz found a photographer with a family and asked curiously: "Eh, man, what are you doing here?" ”
"Needless to say. Not all of them bring their children over and bathe in the grace of God. ”
The photographer said, occasionally raising the SLR camera in his hand to take pictures of his family.
"Do you mean to bring the child over to awaken Ao Neng?" Li Oz asked.
"Awakening Arcane? I haven't thought about it, but such an obvious miracle must have been deliberately arranged by God. ”
The photographer said, of course:
"The Occult is secondary, but people still want to believe that it is a blessing from the gods to the Red Arrows, symbolizing that we will overcome suffering, and that the merciful God of the Father blesses everyone, and this white obelisk is the best evidence of His apparition."
Li Oz was stunned.
[Abruptly, I forgot that Red Arrow is different from other countries, they are religious countries. 】
The main purpose of tourists coming to the white obelisk, in addition to admiring the magnificence of the white obelisk, is more out of the worship and belief of the Red Arrow people in the gods.
From the voices of these tourists, Li Oz probably guessed why the white obelisk attracted so many people. I'm afraid that even the Red Arrow official has tacitly acquiesced that this obelisk is a gift from the gods.
Attributing all this to the Red Arrow's religion can help improve national cohesion and self-confidence, and can also lead to the development of local tourism, so why not?
There are not a few people who are willing to burn incense and worship the Buddha for good luck and spend a lot of money, let alone living near the white obelisk, which will really increase the chance of becoming a [mutant].
Li Aozi was a little dissatisfied at first, and Red Arrow was equivalent to pulling the naming rights and ownership rights to his head without saying a word.
However, after thinking about it, Li Oz may not necessarily see that this is a bad thing.
If the official takes the lead, the [Dominator] arcane should have the opportunity to become a transcendent like the [Warrior], but in this way, the cost invested by Li Aozi in the early stage is equivalent to giving a part of the empire in the end.
[Can't you want to prostitute the fruits of my labor for nothing......]
Li Oz mentally calculated.
After looking around, Li Oz didn't find anything wrong, maybe those players should just be a random location to gather.
In the spirit of coming all, Li Oz personally walked up to the white obelisk, raised his hand, and touched it.
This thing is a permanent building, and the person in charge of the facility has no intention of blocking it, but everyone has limited time to contact, and there is still a queue behind it.
He felt it quietly, closed his eyes, took the opportunity to switch to the main body, and quickly operated it, giving himself the permission of a [Guardian of the Path], which allowed him to lease the arcane energy that the main body once had.
Although Li Oz crushed those arcane abilities, they are still stored in the path, and all the Azure Star people who embark on the path of [mutants] will eventually be influenced by Li Oz and awaken the arcane abilities that Li Oz possessed.
That's how the previous [True Eye] came about, but every time you have to switch back to the ontology operation path system, it's too troublesome, it's better to do it in one step.
As the leader of the Azure Star Path, although the main body cannot use those arcane abilities for the time being, the players under his command can use them very happily.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Oz got close to the road building, and he can also check the recent road business status, and now he has the permission, even if he doesn't switch back to the main body, he can also perform certain operations when he encounters the building.
The good news is that the rental fee of [True Eye] alone will bring at least 4 million experience revenue to Li Oz every month.
The rest are scattered, and the more simple and easy-to-understand ones like [Eternal Blood] and [Natural Anger] are easier to rent, and [Gravity] can basically only be rented out four or five a month, and the sales are extremely bleak.
However, this does not mean that there are so few [Gravity] holders among the players.
"You can prepare an official game for players in the early stage."
[Mutant] is too random, and the path building can exert some influence on the path of the [Domination] system.
At present, the number of followers attracted by the white obelisk has reached 1567, which is quite a lot, and it has been upgraded a little, and now, the white obelisk can be the followers of the [Domination] of the Azure Star, and two additional acquired awakening abilities have been added.
That's a good ability. Not all players have ability pods in the early stage, and not all of them are as exaggerated as Li Oz, who can directly snatch other arcane abilities, and most players slowly take drugs, mutate, and do quests to reward awakening by themselves.
Now, if you join the [Mutant] under the command of Li Oz, as long as you upgrade to Lv.5 and Lv15, you can get two Arcanes respectively.
In addition, Li Oz slightly modified the attributes of the core arcane ability, and he had to pull up the overall number of the dominant system first.
For new players, the initial Arcana can choose one of two: [Gravity] or [True Eye], for early players, [Gravity] is definitely not as easy to use as [True Eye], most players' initial charm can only apply one or two times the gravity, and it is more general when a hard control.
But the True Eye can come in handy whether you're finding your way, exploring a labyrinth, investigating a case, or fighting someone, and most players will definitely choose this one.
It doesn't matter if the player doesn't choose [Gravity] at the beginning, Li Oz is very friendly to [Juggernaut] players here, and if you stay here for a while, you can awaken [Gravity] for free.
It is naturally impossible to prostitute in vain.
You have to have a place to live here, right? There is a B&B hotel opened by the Red Arrow farmer's uncle, which is affordable and has beautiful houses.
It's not enough to live, players also have to eat, and most of them are transcendental, and the amount of food is amazing, so you have to consume, right? There are local characteristics of the idyllic food, including you beautiful.
After eating and drinking for a while, you find that you don't have enough money and need to spend, so you have to have a job, right? There are already more than 1,500 resident NPCs here, and when Li Oz puts a copy in the future, the flow of players will definitely burst.
"Strange, how do you feel as if I'm not here to collect talents, but to help the poor?"
Li Oz muttered.
He hasn't made much at the moment, but the city of Elga has definitely won too much.
Subsequently, after thinking about it, Li Oz chose two acquired arcane abilities for the player.
[Superpower gene sequence has been modified]
[[Juggernaut] Followers of the Path will receive the following bonuses:]
A. When upgraded to Lv.5, Awaken the Arcane - [Flesh Enhancement: Capa]
B. When upgraded to Lv.15, Awaken the Arcane - [Natural Flame: Arcane Kolon]
"That's pretty much it."
The [Flesh Enhancement] of the Kappa rank is the most cost-effective, providing the benefits of [Strength] and HP, but there is no future for further development. It is just right for a transition.
And [Natural Anger] is the beginning of the player's qualitative change, this arcane energy is full of destructive power, which is very suitable for players to farm monsters and upgrade.
Li Oz glanced at the pool of funds, not bad, thanks to the simplicity and honesty of the villagers, as well as the respect for miracles, the current local corruption index is only 13 points, and the peak period is only 26 points.
That's 13 out of every 100,000 people that can be called corruption.
The enterprises and units are very down-to-earth and can be called fair and honest.
There are 2.1 million galens in the capital pool, and the combination of religion and supernatural power has led to considerable tourism benefits.
These funds were directly used by Li Oz to build a large farmhouse-style complex.
At the same time, a sub-building called the 'Altar' was expanded, which could continue to increase the appeal of immigrants for fifty years.
This is used to keep the alien population as much as possible.
The person in charge of the building was soon instructed by the white obelisk and immediately began to plan the action, and the ultra-low corruption index brought Li Oz a super high speed of action, and it only took 9 days in total to complete the construction.
It's just that the corruption index is too low and it's not perfect, Li Aozi noticed that in order to activate the state of [rapid development], the corruption index needs to be higher than 55 points for a year, which can provide a considerable development rate bonus, and Li Aozi is a little excited.
Considering that the corruption index reduces happiness and reduces the number of births, Li Oz still gave up.
The number of people is too important to him, and even if he loses money, he has to pull up the birth rate.
10 years of generation, if nothing else, a version generally lasts 20 to 40 years, that is to say, before the outbreak of version 2.5 Doom Crisis, Li Oz had at least 2 and a half generations of [Domination] reserve population.
And by that time, the first generation of dominating newborns will have become warriors of the appropriate age.
When the players are promoted to the gamma rank, Li Oz can consider adding advanced arcane abilities such as [Bloodline] and [Scourge].
The number of immigrants is increasing, but slowly, and the city of Elga, where the White Obelisk is located, will have a population of 4 million in 20 years, if it goes on properly.
At least 500,000 of them will live, or have lived in the White Obelisk's sphere of influence.
500,000, a warrior of the right age, a transcendent.
Among them, there are 30,000 to 40,000 people who will enter the alpha level, and there will be about 3,000 beta steps, and the gamma level is hard to say, there may or may not appear at all.
This number is already about the same as the transcendents possessed by the Frost Plating Federation.
At this point, Li Oz can feel how unshakable those narrative-level civilizations are.
Just an obelisk can have such a powerful impact.
Narrative-level civilizations, on average, have at least 6 paths in each narrative level, and the number of people affected is often calculated at the galaxy level.
But no matter what, Li Oz has finally stepped into the same field as them at this moment, and Azure Star will also have the potential to become a narrative.
"Give me 20 years, and I will give Azure Star a prosperous and powerful dominant system!"
