Chapter 394: National Name Ritian
Chapter 394: National Name Ritian
Xiao Jie opened the QQ group, and the guild group was filled with celebratory messages.
Yulong Zai Tian: Haha, now our Long Xiang finally has a territory.
Hou Sailei: Chairman, I want to be a village chief for fun. When will the official position be auctioned?
Zilong Wushuang: Let’s not worry about official positions for now. President, can we recruit soldiers now?
Crayfish: Yes, yes, yes. Recruit more troops and assign tasks to the brothers. Then you can lead the troops to level up in the future.
Dragon Phantom: You're overthinking it. As far as I know, soldiers don't get experience points for killing monsters.
Xiao Jie thought that it would be great if he could really lead his troops to kill monsters and level up, but then he thought that this game shouldn't have such an obvious backdoor.
But even if it doesn't give experience, it's good to lead soldiers to fight bosses and get equipment. Recruiting soldiers is nothing but spending money. If this game can spend money to buy combat power, consuming soldiers' lives is definitely more cost-effective than consuming players' lives.
Although the conquest of Black Wind Mountain was relatively smooth today, several people were killed.
It's okay to happen once in a while, but if it happens every day like this, players will become afraid of fighting sooner or later.
Suddenly someone in the group exclaimed.
Longteng Sihai: Damn, another guild has successfully established a country.
What! Xiao Jie was startled and quickly logged into the game, only to see a line of huge red words hanging high above the screen.
[World Announcement: The Aoao Niubi Empire, led by the player 'Supreme Emperor', successfully slayed the dragon and founded the country. The country is named Ritian, becoming the third country founded by a player. The current country level is - the country of common people...]
[World Announcement: Since there are already three countries established by players, the conditions are met, the Old Earth World is about to usher in a new game version - [Old Earth 1.2.0: Nine States Domination]. The specific update time and new version content can be checked on the official website. ]
Awesome Empire... Did they succeed in slaying the dragon? But the name of this country is really unique, Ritian Kingdom...
There is also this new version of the old land. I don’t know what new content will be updated. Looking at the name of the expansion pack, it seems to be related to the war between players.
Xiao Jie had a vague feeling in his heart that many people would probably die in this game.
Announcement to the whole server: Former allies congratulate the establishment of the Kingdom of Heaven, brothers are united and the world is at peace.
Server-wide announcement: The Dragon Knights congratulate the establishment of the Kingdom of Heaven.
Two server-wide announcements flashed up in succession, but there was no congratulations from the First Dynasty. This is not difficult to understand, as the First Dynasty is currently fighting a civil war with the Aoao Niubi Empire and will definitely not show any friendly attitude.
However, the Aoao Niubi Empire and its former allies were already evenly matched with the First Dynasty. Now that they have successfully established a country, they will probably gain an advantage.
Of course, this has nothing to do with him.
While Xiao Jie was thinking, a private message popped up.
Fenglinhuoshan: Brother Suifeng, do you still remember me?
Hey, isn’t this the guy who wanted to buy the five-colored stones from me?
Yin Yue Sui Feng: Of course I remember. Is there something you want to talk to me about?
Fenglinhuoshan: I have already got the dragon balls you want. When are we going to trade?
Sure enough, he is a high-ranking official of the Aoao Awesome Empire...
Xiao Jie immediately understood that the dragon ball in Fenglinhuoshan's hand was probably dropped by the dragon that the Aoao Niubi Empire slaughtered.
He suddenly had an idea. The other party had just killed the dragon and successfully established a country, and he came to him to trade immediately after the world announcement was made. Isn't this a bit too hasty?
Generally speaking, after a country is established, there must be various affairs to deal with. The fact that Fenglinhuoshan was able to obtain the Dragon Balls shows that he must be a high-ranking member of the guild. It is impossible for him to be idle and he must be involved in management.
Although the five-colored stone is indeed a divine item, there is no need to be so eager about it, right?
There must be some deeper meaning behind this. He thought about it for a moment, then suddenly smiled, having understood the truth.
He did not reply to the other party immediately, but instead sent a message to Long Xingtianxia.
Yin Yue Sui Feng: President, how is the civil war in Longhua Prefecture going recently?
Dragon Travels the World: Originally, they were evenly matched, but now that the Aoao Niubi Empire has been successfully established, they should have the upper hand.
Yin Yue Sui Feng: Just now, a high-ranking official from the Aoao Niubi Empire contacted me and wanted to trade a piece of equipment with me.
Dragon Travels the World: Oh, what do you think?
Yin Yue Sui Feng: I think their ulterior motive is not to trade with us - they probably want to form an alliance with us, and trading equipment is just an excuse. I guess when the time comes to trade with them, they will definitely test me and find a way to reach some kind of agreement with our Longxiang Country.
Long Xing Tian Xia: Oh, why do you think so?
Yin Yue Sui Feng: Haha, isn't this obvious? The civil war in Longhua Province has now reached a critical moment. If no external forces intervene, the Aoao Niubi Empire will most likely defeat the First Dynasty and seize control of the largest state in the Nine Provinces.
Now the only force capable of intervening in the civil war in Longhua Province and changing the war situation is our Longxiang Nation. Even if other guilds intervene, they can at best maintain a balance, or they may even be defeated together. No one would be willing to get involved in such a messy battle.
Only Longxiang Kingdom has the ability to reverse the situation and help the First Dynasty win.
Therefore, the Aoao Niubi Empire must take this into consideration. Trading equipment is just an excuse. They should take this opportunity to find a way to form an alliance with us, or at least sign a non-aggression treaty. As long as we do not intervene in the civil war in Longhua Province, the Aoao Niubi Empire will be stable.
Long Xing Tianxia: Hahahaha, Brother Suifeng is indeed insightful. Yes, I think it is mostly true. Moreover, the president of the First Dynasty just contacted me. Although he didn’t say it explicitly, he is obviously trying to lure us into joining.
Yin Yue Sui Feng: Is the President ready to intervene in the civil war in Longhua Prefecture?
Long Xing Tian Xia: Of course not. We are still integrating the territories of Bei Ming and Feng Yin Zhou. Everyone is still in the development stage, so we are one step ahead. Of course, the right thing to do is to seize the time to develop our national strength.
Although there are only three countries in this game now, there are more than three guilds that have the goal of establishing a country, so this development time cannot be wasted.
Xiao Jie breathed a sigh of relief, as he was really afraid that Long Xingtianxia would be blinded by greed and do something reckless.
But it seems that Long Xingtianxia is still sensible.
If you want to dominate an online game, you can't just focus on one enemy. After all, there are many guilds in the game. Even if you suppress one, you can't suppress the second one. Suppressing the Aoao Niubi Empire will only make other guilds bigger and stronger.
The best move is to develop your own strength. As long as you become strong, you will be invincible.
Judging from the current situation, it is certain that Longxiang Kingdom will take over the territories of the two states. By then, even if the Aoao Niubi Empire takes over the entire Longhua Province, the two sides will be evenly matched.
Moreover, there is a high probability that Longxiang Kingdom will be able to unify the two states and establish a large army first, and then decide whether to send troops depending on the situation.
Sending troops now is definitely a bad idea.
Yin Yue Sui Feng: If the other party asks our Longxiang country to form an alliance, should I agree?
Long Xing Tian Xia: We can agree to this. We also need a period of stability. However, the Aoao Niubi Empire must be more anxious than us. After all, they are at war, but we are not, so we can make a killing from them. Yin Yue Sui Feng: How much is the offer?
Long Xing Tian Xia: It’s up to you, but let me make this clear first, no matter how much you get in the end, I can only give you 10%.
Hidden Moon Following the Wind: 30%.
Long Xing Tian Xia: Twenty percent, no more. Our guild is huge and has too many places to spend money.
Yin Yue Sui Feng: OK, 20% is it.
Xiao Jie closed the private message, feeling quite excited. Although it was only 20%, this amount was earned on behalf of the guild, so it would definitely not be a small amount.
Clicking on Fenglinhuoshan’s name, Xiao Jie sent a private message back.
Yin Yue Sui Feng: Oops, sorry. I just went to the bathroom. Where were we? Oh, right, trading dragon balls. Okay, let’s set a time and place. As for the price, we can talk about it when we meet.
Fenglinhuoshan: Okay, just tell me the time and place.
Yin Yue Sui Feng: How about three days later, at Zhenhun Pass?
Zhenhun Pass is relatively close to Longhua Prefecture, but it is still within the territory of Fengyin Prefecture, making it a relatively suitable trading location.
Fenglinhuoshan: Three days is too long, how about tomorrow at noon?
Yin Yue Sui Feng: Okay, then tomorrow at noon.
Fenglinhuoshan: It’s settled then. See you tomorrow at 12 noon.
Xiao Jie thought to himself, why is the other party so anxious? It seems that he really has something to ask for.
Now I can make a big profit, hehehehe.
Xiao Jie couldn't help but feel excited.
But he soon calmed down. No matter how many benefits there are, they will be in the future, and things may not necessarily develop in the direction he imagined. It is better to distribute the cake on hand first.
Xiao Jie opened the group of relatives and friends and started to speak.
Yin Yue Sui Feng: Everyone, I’m going to start taking pictures. If you want to order any dishes, just tell me directly. I’ll order the ones that no one wants first.
Xia Yi Wu Shuang: Brother Sui Feng, I killed that BOSS and it dropped three pieces of equipment. Do you want to share them with me?
Yin Yue Sui Feng: No need to divide it. You and Hao Mie Ye Luo can discuss the distribution separately. However, you will not be given any credit for killing Lao Wu alone.
Xiayi Wushuang: Haha, thank you very much.
The fifth BOSS, Yun Zhongke, was killed solo by Xia Yi Wushuang, and although he also took advantage of the guild's power, it is actually reasonable whether his drops should be included in today's loot distribution.
In that case, it would be better to keep the good things for our own people.
As for other drops, although they are auctioned normally, as the host of the auction, the order of the auction is decided by Xiao Jie, and the amount of merit points is also determined by Xiao Jie. Although it is necessary to be as fair as possible so that no one has to complain, whether the merit is greater or less, or the points are more or less, it is just a matter of Xiao Jie's words. He is not afraid of gossip about such things.
In addition, the relatives and friends are the main force of the guild and their contributions are obvious. Basically, Xiao Jie and his group can get these drops as long as they want.
This is the benefit of the family and friends group.
Although it is a bit unethical to play it this way, when it comes to actual interests, we must definitely give priority to our own people.
Drunken Swordsman: I want the Secret Art of Yin and Yang.
An Ran: What do you want that thing for?
Drunken Swordsman: In case I fail to advance to Sword Saint, I can take a part-time job as a first-level magic profession at level 40. At least I can learn a few entry-level spells to play with.
"The Secret Art of Yin and Yang" is a professional item. If you successfully read and understand it, you can understand the basics of ghost curses or exorcisms.
This thing is actually most suitable for newcomers to use to brush up on their starting careers, but it is not too bad for high-level players to use it to open an entry-level spell specialization.
At least in reality it is much more useful than simple martial arts.
Yin Yue Sui Feng: The score for this thing is not low, are you ready to go all in?
Drunken Swordsman: Let’s go all in. I have saved up all my previous points, just waiting for this one.
Ye Luo: I want the Taixuan Bingfu Sutra. I plan to stack my comprehension and brush up on Rioyi.
Yin Yue Sui Feng: No problem, who else wants to order food?
Haomie: Don’t you need the Taiyi Heart Protection Mirror?
Yin Yue Sui Feng: Of course we need it, but brothers take priority.
I Want to Become an Immortal: Brother Feng, you are so kind, can you give it to me?
An Ran: Why do you need this thing when you are about to manifest the divine light?
I Want to Become an Immortal: What’s the use of manifesting divine light?
An Ran: You can unlock a bonus magical power - Dharmakaya Golden Body, which has built-in spell resistance and can be immune to control for a short period of time after activation. The effect is no worse than the Taiyi Heart Mirror.
I Want to Become an Immortal: Ah, then I don’t want it. I’ll keep it for my professional tasks.
An Ran: If you don’t want to become an immortal, then give it to me.
Yin Yue Sui Feng: OK, that’s settled.
The subsequent auction went very smoothly and developed exactly as Xiao Jie planned.
First, all the items that no one wanted were auctioned off, and basically all the bosses in the club were cleared out. The remaining few items naturally fell into the hands of Xiao Jie's friends.
The only thing that made Xiao Jie speechless was this spiritual pet - the Blood Spirit. No one wanted this thing.
But it's not surprising. This thing is too useless. It only restores a few points of blood, which is basically useless. It is somewhat useful in removing bleeding, but unfortunately it has no advantage over equipment.
In the end, Xiao Jie had to pay 30 points himself to buy it.
Anyway, Xiao Jie has more points than he can use up, so he can be considered as a backup for the team.
