A game where you have to pay to win? But I have a lifespan roulette wheel!

As everyone knows!

A city built using the heart of the city.

It is related to the user's personality, inner desires, and the civilization in which he lives.

Therefore, the three cities generated by the King of Gamblers are:

A city of games, a city of gambling, a city of repentance.

That fits the mindset of a gambler perfectly.

At first, I was just playing around; it's just a game, after all—as long as I'm having fun!

And then I got hooked and stepped into the world of gambling.

Finally, he began to repent.

Very reasonable.

After choosing a location, use the City Heart feature.

The Heart of the City will begin building the city based on the user's inner desires, and will not only plan the urban ecosystem.

It will also generate some distinctive buildings that reflect the characteristics of the city.

For example, the paradoxical court in the city of freedom, because the city of freedom is actually a yearning for fairness.

There's also the Impermanence Street in the City of a Hundred Ghosts, where the Ghost King wanted to find his brother, so there are these special buildings to facilitate the gathering of information.

Build a city!

This is one of the functions of the city center.

Function 2:

Create an environment suitable for players to survive, and collect taxes from players.

The environment created here isn't the kind of simple living environment, like a city for merfolk where they just create a body of water.

Do not!

These features are certainly available, but the most important one is resource points!

Why do players who are willing to spend a lot of time and energy stay in these games?

Naturally, it's all about extending one's lifespan.

Long ago, before anyone built cities, these were the players.

One second you're hunting a whale with 200 health points, the next second a bat-rat with 20000 health points might fall from the sky and wipe you and your prey out in one fell swoop.

Monsters are randomly assigned, and each hunting trip is like a lottery, with absolutely no pattern.

But things change after a city is established.

The atmosphere of a city makes even the lowest-level monsters feel more approachable and want to get closer.

That is to say.

In cities, the distribution of monsters follows a pattern: the closer a monster is to a city, the more harmless it is to humans and animals.

The farther away you are, the more dangerous it is.

Of course, this range is also limited.

However, players who can travel that far to hunt are mostly experienced players with a clear understanding of themselves, which is better than when they first started.

Encountering super elite monsters during the early stages of a newbie's journey is incredibly beneficial.

This also led to the issue of tax collection.

Let's discuss tax collection together with the third function of the City Center.

Function 3:

Job change.

Jiang Lin has traveled to so many cities, so you can see that...

His regular jobs may overlap in different cities, but he will start with a basic job after he begins to come into contact with extraordinary powers.

Each city has its own very strong personal characteristics.

The City of Freedom offers true freedom, while the City of Games features professions that only players can understand.

Not to mention the intermediate professions, which are even more closely tied to the city's distinctive architecture.

Whether it's fighting monsters, using job change scrolls, or using special buildings to change jobs, you can collect taxes in all of these ways.

Why is there such a concept as "freedom"?

Because the Beastmaster originally intended to take in homeless people, not to live off city taxes.

So she actually didn't pay any taxes.

This is why so many people responded immediately to the rebuilding of the City of Freedom.

What about the mechanical capital?

Haha, at every job change entrance, the people charging admission and organizing events are all using the same payment transfer method, aren't they?

It is for this reason.

Some xenophobic races may be very lenient with their own people in their cities, but impose exorbitant taxes on foreign races, making it nearly impossible for any foreign race to survive in their cities, and they eventually leave in disgrace.

Another type is the residence tax. To become a formal resident of a city and enjoy the city's blessings, one must pay a certain amount of lifespan as a personal tax.

The last feature.

This is the function that was presented to Lao Jiu.

City model.

A living map.

Not only can you observe the city's every move through this sand table, but you can also use it to observe the city's every move.

At the same time, everything done on this model will also be reflected in the city.

Simply put

Having the Heart of the City is like playing Minecraft in God Mode.

Oh, it's not that exaggerated; resources can't be unlimited.

Old Nine placed his hand on the heart of the city.

At this moment, as a descendant of the King of Gamblers, she naturally received certain privileges from him.

only.

The King of Gamblers is now dead, utterly and completely dead.

The heart of the city has become ownerless and needs to be recertified.

"Faster, faster, faster!"

Old Nine prayed in his heart.

If she can control the heart of the city before they discover it, she can become the lord of this game city.

She can control everything in this city.

She can use her authority as the city lord to drive those two intruders out!

"Little Demon, she doesn't actually think that becoming the city lord will allow her to kick us out, does she?"

As Lao Jiu was obtaining the City Heart certification, Jiang Lin's voice suddenly rang out behind him.

At the same time, the Magic King's voice also rang out from the side.

"Young Master, she can't be that stupid, can she? The King of Gamblers is the city lord. Even as the only professional player, he didn't use his city lord authority to expel you. Could she think the King of Gamblers has forgotten he has that authority?"

The two were talking at the same time.

They had already reached both sides of Lao Jiu.

He smiled as he looked at those who had truly experienced the verification of the City Heart.

The immense pain caused Lao Jiu's veins to bulge, leaving him no time to be distracted.

She could only frantically encourage herself in her heart.

Hurry up.

Hurry up!

Hurry up!

"Little Demon, it seems like we're being ignored?"

The Magic King gestured twice across his neck. "Young Master, do you need me?"

"Hey! Didn't you just say you wanted to make the most of everything? How come you've changed your mind now? You fickle man."

The Magic King smiled.

Now that he no longer has to fear being hunted down by the other unique professionals, he feels much more relaxed.

They can even joke around now.

"Young Master, I swore an oath to protect your safety, your property, and your very life! How can I tolerate this person trying to lay a finger on your city?!"

Jiang Lin nodded in satisfaction.

When it comes to speaking skills, the Magic King is the best.

"In that case, let's get rid of her."

The king of gamblers has been dealt with.

What's happening now is just a little bit of fun after the main course.

It's fine to play around with it.

Next, I'll be quite busy.

The first priority is to take over all three cities.

Secondly, even if you want to be a hands-off manager, you still need to arrange the staff properly, and you can just come to collect the rent at fixed times and locations.

Solve the problem of the ninth son.

It was just something that happened between the two of them in a casual conversation.

"Young master, come on. After passing the verification of the Heart of the City, you will be the master of this game city."

"That person was in so much pain during the verification process, is this thing really that scary?"

Jiang Lin tentatively reached out his hand.
