Chapter 34 City Lord's Order

"It was a vast and unknown world."

"This only covers the areas that have been explored by various countries so far."

"It already exceeds the total size of the entire Eurasian continent in our present world."

"As for those unknown areas hidden deep in the mist, they are unimaginably vast."

Hearing this exaggerated description...

Even Mingyuexi, who was very dissatisfied with the woman with the beauty mark under her eye, couldn't help but pay attention to her.

"If it were just a vast, unexplored world."

"High-level officials in various countries will not attach such importance to this."

The woman with the beauty mark under her eye suddenly changed the subject.

"Because in the new world, there exist countless beasts with different levels."

"And various extremely dangerous special environments."

She tapped her palm with her folding fan, making a crisp sound.

"Especially those wild beasts."

"They are extremely sensitive to the smell of humans from Earth, and are filled with disgust for it."

"Once they smell human scent, they go berserk and launch a relentless attack."

The scene depicted by the woman with the beauty mark under her eye can be described as a forbidden zone for humans.

"Until players discovered that as long as they used the City Lord's Decree to establish their own city in the new world..."

"Those wild beasts will no longer attack players on their own initiative."

"Even members of the guilds of the city lord players are protected by this rule!"

"It's like gaining a new identity."

The woman with the beauty mark under her eye looked at Lü Shenxiao.

"since then."

"The new world became a battleground for producing high-quality medicinal herbs and minerals."

"Furthermore, the spectacular buildings constructed within the city can greatly enhance a player's strength."

The woman with the beauty mark under her eye closed her folding fan and gave her final conclusion.

"Things have come to this point."

"The number of cities a country possesses in the New World has become a standard for measuring national power."

"Our China has twenty-six cities, the most of any country."

"Among them, the Great Wei Guild possesses the most cities, with nine alone!"

The crucial intelligence was supplemented.

Lu Shenxiao finally understood why Mingyuexi's brother was in such a hurry.

I also know Xing Lei, and that's why I said he would definitely regret it —

"what?"

"Where is Xing Lei?"

Lu Shenxiao then realized that Xing Lei hadn't made a sound for a long time.

He glanced to the side and saw that the unfortunate man's eyes were tightly closed; he couldn't tell if he was unconscious or dead.

"Tsk, surely they're not summoning a god, are they?"

After shaking his head and chuckling, Lü Shenxiao continued to ponder.

The entire Chinese nation only had a total of twenty-six cities.

In the context of the Han Dynasty, the importance of each city was almost equivalent to half a province!

This shows just how precious a City Lord's Token is.

Moreover, Lü Shenxiao is a man destined to stand above the heavens.

If you join someone else's faction, over time, you're bound to develop some strange ideas!

For example, "A true man, living between heaven and earth, how can he remain subservient to others for long?"

Then, by accident, I managed to get the boss out of office and take control myself.

Therefore, if you don't want to repeat the mistakes of your past life that made you universally reviled.

Building your own city and becoming the ruler of a force is the most suitable choice!

Having figured these things out, Lü Shenxiao was no longer confused.

He smiled and thanked the woman with the beauty mark.

Then they turned their attention back to the Merit Shop.

Next, Lü Shenxiao will convert that massive amount of merit points into real items!

Without further hesitation, he immediately opened the "Cities" category in the store.

Fingers swipe rapidly across the light screen.

soon.

A black token exuding an ancient and chaotic aura appeared in his sight.

[City Lord's Order]

[Price: 800000 Merit Points]

[Players in the beginner dungeon can enjoy a 50% discount on this item!]

Without any hesitation, Lü Shenxiao clicked to redeem.

【Ding! 】

[400000 Merit Points deducted, City Lord's Token successfully redeemed!]

As soon as the system notification sounded, a black token appeared in Lü Shenxiao's backpack.

"The treatment for newbies is really good! Otherwise, even I would have to save up 800,000 merit points in a very long time!"

I saved 400,000 merit points, what a steal!

Then.

Lu Shenxiao then opened the "Official Rank" category in the Merit Shop.

His current official position is merely a temporary vanguard post appointed by Zhu Jun, and it has no real significance on the system panel.

To build a city in the new world and have sufficient development potential.

A high-ranking official position recognized by the system is an essential requirement.

Lü Shenxiao quickly selected a suitable buyer.

[Rank 4: Jianwu General]

[Price: 160000 Merit Points]

[Players in the beginner dungeon can enjoy a 50% discount on this item!]

Point your finger.

【Ding! 】

[80000 merit points deducted, official rank exchange successful!]

In Lü Shenxiao's system panel, an official rank column was also added!

Although it was just a general with a miscellaneous title, it was still a general recognized by the game of national destiny!

He certainly deserves the title "General Shenxiao" bestowed upon him by the woman with the beauty mark.

more importantly.

With the official title of General Jianwu, Lü Shenxiao can not only raise the development ceiling of cities to the level of county towns in the new world.

Furthermore, each month, they can receive a salary of 400,000 copper coins from the system.

The Purple Water Wave Blade that Xu Yi revealed is only worth about this amount.

Over time, it adds up to a considerable sum.

at this time.

Lu Shenxiao's original 570,000 merit points have been reduced to only 90,000.

He didn't stop.

My attention shifted to the "Materials" category, and I clicked to buy!

【Ding! 】

[Deduct 50000 merit points to exchange for a legendary gold-grade material: 1 ingot of Flowing Silver Iron (already smelted)!]

Lu Shenxiao's Chaotic Ancient Halberd was very useful and provided him with great assistance in battle.

But it was, after all, a damaged weapon.

With this Flowing Silver Iron, plus the "Gold Devouring" effect that the Chaotic Ancient Halberd comes with (absorbs fine ore and automatically repairs durability),

.

It shouldn't be long before it transforms back into its original gold grade!

At last.

Looking at the remaining 40,000 merit points, Lü Shenxiao opened the "Armor" category.

He was still wearing the fine blue armor that had been captured.

This level of equipment couldn't even stop Fu Qianqian's dagger; it wasn't even as strong as his own physical defense.

It's time to replace it!

【Ding! 】

[40000 merit points deducted to redeem the armor: Vermilion Bird Heaven-Burning Armor!]

[Armor: Suzaku Burning Sky Armor]

[Grade: Pseudo-Legendary (Purple Gold)]

[Effect 1: Combat Strength Index +700 points]

【Effect 2: Sacrifice (After being infused with true energy, the armor will ignite with Vermilion Bird Flames (pseudo) around its body, continuously burning hostile creatures within a 3-meter radius. Note: This flame will not harm friendly units.)】

【Effect 3: Rejuvenation (After disengaging from combat, the armor will rapidly restore the wearer's health. The restoration efficiency is 20% of maximum health per day)】

A set of exaggerated dark red armor with shoulder armor resembling the wings of a Vermilion Bird was instantly equipped on Lü Shenxiao!

The crimson flames of the Vermilion Bird and the black flames of Lü Shenxiao merged into one in an instant, transforming into a giant torch ten feet tall that shot into the sky!

Feeling his martial arts index surge by 700 points again within his body.

Lu Shenxiao nodded in satisfaction.

Chaotic Ancient Halberd!

Vermilion Bird Burning Heaven Armor!

A purple-red horse!

Until this moment.

Lu Shenxiao finally has a complete set of the core equipment that a player should have!
