My Player 2

Chapter 229: The Emperor's Ambition for Hegemony

What do players who don’t need to eat, drink, defecate or urinate need from the natives?
Weapons, equipment, and consumable items.

Then it's very simple, just conquer a safe territory, lure NPCs into the city, and stuff the materials and tools in.

A building that can produce continuously was born.

Is this really the case?

Players who know the authenticity of the game have made a lot of preparations to build their territories.

But they still underestimated the difficulty of managing a city.

Not to mention anything else, garbage disposal alone is enough to make several major guilds overwhelmed.

The territories of many large guilds are still piled with garbage.

Not to mention more detailed things like water, electricity, network, logistics, etc.

Even players who call themselves "war criminals" can't handle this mess.

The water used in a city alone is divided into reservoirs, water purification, pumping stations, water pipelines, sewage treatment plants, drainage systems, rainwater discharge...

These invisible public facilities require terrifying operating costs.

This is not a matter of money. It involves a lot of human contact, and the extremely high intelligence of NPCs makes various games very exhausting.

Even after playing the game for thousands of hours, you still won't be able to master these issues.

The higher-ups of the big guilds realized that NPCs needed to eat, drink, defecate and urinate, but they didn't expect the cost of eating, drinking, defecation and urinating was so high.

How to reduce the cost of logistics? Who will manage a large number of NPCs? How to solve the problem of corruption? How to formulate the laws of the territory?
Before they could solve one problem, another one arose.

It never ends and it's very draining.

They are here to play games, not to deal with these bad things.

Therefore, after hitting a wall several times, even the "Wenxiang Pavilion" among the "Four Major Guilds" gave up the idea of ​​developing its territory.

They are also willing to recruit NPCs and set up small workshops that produce extraordinary items.

But the vast cities that belong to them...

Just leave it empty there.

However, there are many outliers among the players.

Except for "Golden Wind", which took various factors into consideration from the beginning, allowed the indigenous people to participate to a large extent, and built the city from scratch.

Hu Tutu, who advocates "imperial ambition", was also extremely excited about this.

This is real power.

What he saw was not difficulties, but the embryonic form of an empire and the unfathomable prospects of this game.

He longed to conquer and loved to conquer.

When he was young, he started from scratch with only a few million dollars from his family and created a business empire from scratch.

If it weren't for the accident that caused high-level paraplegia, he would probably still be active in the business world.

The holographic simulation technology gave him the illusion of standing up again, and "Desperate Expedition OL" made him feel alive.

But now, this game "Honor Expedition OL" has completely ignited his dead heart.

He has taken care of the drainage of the jungle city, handled the food source and logistics, trained a group of capable subordinates, and is establishing his own bureaucratic system. He plans to open up his own empire step by step!

But before that, the first thing to consider is how to compete with "Golden Wind" for the very few NPCs who are willing to leave the alliance.

……

"Dutch Wisdom Tooth Extraction" called his cat-man to help watch the shop, while he took [Loki] back to the guild to receive it.

This is related to his bonus. The president, Lao Deng, is really giving away gold coins, so he must take it seriously.

There are many portals in the divine realm, but only players can use them, and there are also favorability restrictions. They cannot be used if the good and evil value is low.

『Wisdom Tooth Extraction in the Netherlands』 I originally planned to call a taxi. There are many taxi drivers from Sky Island to various places, and they are all NPCs who come to make a living.

However, Loki said that He could fly, so he had to take out his flying equipment as well.

It was a magic brooch that would grow a pair of golden wings when worn.

"Magic wings?" Loki looked at the wings growing on the back of Dutch Wisdom Tooth Extractor, and with just one hand, he plucked his wings off and examined them carefully. "The magic circuit is made up, and flying is secondary. For the golden stream of light, nearly half of the circuit is wasted." Loki found the problem in an instant.

Even though he didn't have much in mind at the moment, he still felt nauseous about this crudely made magic item.

These wings are not for flying, but for the golden and glittering special effects that look like falling powder.

So vulgar. Too vulgar.

He gently pinched the brooch and twisted the awkward design into a truly practical magical equipment.

After taking the brooch from the old man, 'Dutch Wisdom Tooth Extraction' was stunned for a long time.

His [Golden Sky Colorful Version] turned into [Perfect Magic Wings].

From blue to purple.

But the problem is that this set of wings is sold for 2000 per pair. It is a limited edition for masters in the league and a symbol of financial strength.

This makes it worthless.

These NPCs who don't know anything...

『Wisdom Tooth Extraction in the Netherlands』 His emotions were stable and he wasn't too angry.

The old man can re-enchant a magical item with just a few moves, which shows that he is an authority in the relevant field.

I found a treasure this time.

The credit is not small.

As the president is wealthy, he will reimburse the expenses while giving away his money.

Afraid of being discovered by the "Golden Wind" gang, "Dutch Wisdom Tooth Extraction" spread its wings and was about to fly to the territory with "Loki".

Before taking off, he suddenly stopped and said to the old man beside him:

"The president is calling for help nearby. They are having a fight with the people from Golden Wind. I have to go and help them. You... forget it. You go back to the store first. I'll find someone to take you there later."

[Loki] nodded meekly.

These puppets who claim to be from another world have a way of communicating that can conceal His perception.

Moreover, there is no unity among them.

After only a few minutes of contact, He obtained two important pieces of information.

If he wanted, he could use this as a base wine to mix a poisonous conspiracy at any time.

The Apostle of the Snatcher is not indestructible.

[Loki] looked up at the sky.

He knew that the Lord of the Divine Realm was looking at him.

He has too many secrets to tell and too much intelligence to gain.

In fact, as long as the gods do not kill themselves at the first opportunity, they will choose to cooperate with them. This is the experience of the elders.

He looked at the Lord of the Divine Realm, and the Lord of the Divine Realm was also looking at him. In the end, he couldn't help but said:
"You don't want to communicate with me?"

"Go back." A cold voice sounded from Loki's heart.

This naturally does not mean returning to heaven.

Loki could feel that the Lord of the Divine Realm had no intention of letting Him leave.

So going back means...

The old man, leaning on a cane, slowly returned to the "Huangtu Baiye" store.

The cat-man who was watching over the shop came to greet him, and after he explained his purpose, he made him a cup of tea.

If the Lord of the Divine Realm wants me to work for his minions and become a guest official of the "Imperial Ambition", then I will do it.

He was always kind and easy going.

Time is running out. There are still 30 days before the eclipse feast. One side will lose patience.

　I went to have the stitches removed today, and there was a bunch of rancid food debris in the wound. No wonder it hurt so much.
