After sending the other mbers away, the office is left with only Da Fei and Vice President Coltner.
Coltner laughs heartily: "Congratulations to the President for your triumphant return, and for completing another major commission for the Chamber of Comrce!"
Da Fei also laughs heartily: "It’s not just about completing the commission, there are also major gains involved! Where is the contractor, Old Laiyi? I have sothing important to discuss with him!" Saying that, he pats the big chest.
Coltner’s eyebrow twitches and he quickly understands: "President, please wait a mont, I’ll call him over right away!"
Hehe, finally ti to open the chest! What exactly could be in this chest? Co on, all sorts of dazzling Divine Artifacts, bring it on! Wahahaha!
And at this mont, on the guild channel on junxiang’s alt’s side, there is another uproar: "Da Fei is causing trouble again!"
Da Fei raises his eyebrow, are the beauties talking behind my back again? I love eavesdropping on others talking about , quick, let’s switch over!
"I heard this ti it’s about luring monsters to harm others, seems like he snatched a big chest from the Sea Monster. Because of this chest, his na even turned red in the city!"
"Red na? Then what?"
"What then? Psh! Of course, good people don’t live long, but the harm they cause lasts for a thousand years."
"That’s just typical, a dog can’t change its habit of eating poop, trash will always be trash!"
Da Fei sighs quietly, damn it, can’t you guys co up with sothing new every ti? Like, I have a devilishly charming charisma, I am handso and aweso, bad boys are loved by the beauties?
At this mont, a user nad Bloodrose Yueyue wonders: "Right, Da Fei is so aweso, does Star know about this?"
"What does Star have anything to do with it? They are not the justice warriors."
"My point is, with Da Fei causing such a scene on their territory, and even snatching the Sea Urchin King BOSS that was supposedly reserved by Star, and Star has been completely silent, I find that very strange. It doesn’t fit with their usual aggressive PK style at all."
The mostly quiet Second Sister Bloodrose Holy Spear finally couldn’t resist joining the conversation: "You guys really don’t understand Star. They themselves are too busy leveling up and gaining World reputation. Elf Clan produces fewer soldiers, and for the sa amount of respect in the Main City, while human players can recruit 100 soldiers in the human city, Elves can only recruit less than 40 in the Elf Main City. So the Elf players of Star are just busy running around in the Elf cities throughout the Elf Kingdom to boost their reputation and gather troops to compensate for their lack of manpower, all until National War starts, even if the sky falls down, Star Guild won’t care!"
Bloodrose Yueyue wonders: "So, you an as soon as Star completes their troop-building process, they will show their power?"
Bloodrose Holy Spear laughs coldly: "Absolutely, a master’s soldiers are like a capitalist’s money, they must constantly battle, constantly invest to create value. Don’t look at how quiet they are now, when they really start to move, Elorin being such an important comrcial port will no longer tolerate Da Fei, an outsider human player jumping around, I swear on it!"
The group then comfortably responds: "Really hope Star gives this trash a piece of their mind!"
Bloodrose Holy Spear sneers: "Also, because Star’s players are gaining reputation all around the country, their Kingdom’s total reputation is very high. They can obtain elite and even special soldiers that regular players can’t. You’ve all seen Da Fei’s Secret Archer and that Storm Druid right? That’s what I’m talking about! But Da Fei, being a human, even if he mixes in the Elf territories, his future is limited, he’s destined to just be a clown jumping around in the early stages. Anyway, we also have to work hard, the big guilds are all secretly making their moves!"
The group laughs heartily: "Got it!"
Hearing the ladies’ discussion, Da Fei’s heart tightens!
Star eh? Would they really make a move? Well, as long as the benefits are sufficient, they certainly would. Large guilds, small groups, individual businesses all have the sa nature. And brother is now so prominent, having just stirred up feelings of wrath and resentnt, no need to further explain the reasons to sabotage . Moreover, they made a valid point: I am human, I can’t normally recruit soldiers in the Elf City. I haven’t returned to develop on the human side, and have no stable source of troops, specifically, no source of high-level human troops.
In order to recruit level 4 or higher troops in the city, players need to undertake specific recruitnt missions, which require a high level and reputation. With my current human reputation, of course, I can’t recruit high-level soldiers in the human Main City; I might be able to recruit so low-level soldiers at a high price using my current World reputation. However, at this point in my developnt, there’s no ti to turn back and go develop in the human Main City. I can only rely on my status as City Lord to be self-sufficient and produce my own troops.
Right now, my advantage lies in having a Banshee Instructor and a Banshee Camp obtained early on, which are supplying level 4 soldiers to daily. However, that’s still just level 4, not enough, I urgently need to develop higher-level soldiers that can endure wear and tear. Death Bell Tower, Evil Branch Fortress, Lumang Fortress need to be developed urgently!
In any case, there’s a long road ahead! The more you hope for my downfall, the more I insist on not falling!
Just as Da Fei is deeply contemplating the future developnt plans, the door of the office opens, and Coltner leads in an elderly yet robust-looking Elf.
"President, Mr. Laiyi is here!"
Finally! Da Fei chuckles: "Welco! Mr. Laiyi, hello!"
The old elf took off his hat and bowed slightly, saying, "Just call Old Laiyi!"
And at that mont, he saw the box placed in the room and couldn’t help but tremble: "This is—"
Hahaha! It really is an insurance box, it’s not going anywhere! Da Fei smiled and said, "This is what I salvaged from the area where the Jade Dragon sank!"
Old Laiyi’s eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at Da Fei, then imdiately ran to the box and touched it everywhere, excitedly saying, "It’s this! This is the Magic Energy Insurance Box from the Jade Dragon, which was transporting a Divine Artifact lightning rod that we purchased from Titan City Unos to celebrate the completion of the Storm Tower on the summit of the World Tree in Farolan. It’s a legendary artifact that supposedly has a storm-shielding effect, yet ironically, our ship sank during the voyage to bring back the artifact..."
Da Fei’s brow twitched; there really was a Divine Artifact! He then pulled out a key: "This is the key the Captain’s soul, whom I encountered in the sunken ship, gave to . He entrusted with finding the insurance box!"
Old Laiyi nodded: "Yes, that’s the key, and you, President, can now open it directly! The password is 1818168!"
Damn! There really was a password! This old Laiyi really is a key figure! Speaking of which, how do you know the password? Could it be that you were a VIP on the ship?
Anyway, setting that aside for now, Da Fei excitedly inserted the key into the lock, and then a faint demon light began to shine. Following the system prompt, Da Fei entered the password one by one, then clank, a sound echoed, and golden light flashed—the insurance box opened!
—System Prompt: You have opened the insurance box, discovering the damaged Divine Artifact "Storm Tower", S-grade strategic equipnt Thunder God’s Helt, and an expired ownership certificate of the "Jade Dragon".
—Storm Tower: Lightning rod, damaged Divine Artifact, architectural equipnt. Equipped on the roofs of buildings or ships’ masts can resist storms in a wide range and absorb the power of lightning to grant the recruitnt ability of elental soldiers "Thunder Elents."
—Thunder God’s Helt: S-grade strategic equipnt, Magic Power 20, Knowledge 20, increases the power of Thunder Magic spells by 20%. A component of the Combined Divine Artifact Thunder God Set.
—"Jade Dragon" Ship Ownership Certificate: Ownership certificate for a giant, four-deck, five-mast Galen ard passenger and cargo ship, which has expired.
...
"That’s right! These are the artifacts our Chamber of Comrce was transporting," Old Laiyi said excitedly, "this Thunder God’s Helt was a bonus gift from the seller when purchasing the artifact! If the President returns the artifact and Thunder God’s Helt to the Storm Tower Guild in Farolan, it will greatly restore the reputation of the guild. Of course, after so many years, the Dragon Cavalry Chamber of Comrce has collapsed, and the original contract has expired, so it’s up to the President to decide how to handle it. As for this ship’s certificate—" at this point, Old Laiyi sighed, "the ship has sunk, and expired things are no longer worth ntioning."
Da Fei’s eyebrows shot up! Divine Artifacts! Reputation can be slowly earned, but Divine Artifacts are once in a lifeti! Even the components of this combined artifact are rarely encountered. Give it back? Don’t even think about it!
Da Fei snapped back to reality and imdiately asked, "By the way, why is the Storm Tower damaged? Was it like this when it was purchased?"
Old Laiyi was taken aback, "No, that’s not right! This is indeed a problem! Could it be damaged when it sank into the water? Impossible! Even a paper certificate is perfectly preserved—right, did the President encounter any situations while salvaging it?"
Da Fei’s brow twitched, "There was a giant Electric Eel guarding it!"
Old Laiyi made a sound of realization, "It must be that the Electric Eel absorbed the power of the artifact!"
No wonder that Electric Eel was so formidable! And no wonder the sea monster guarding the artifact was an Electric Eel! Da Fei hurriedly asked, "Then how can we repair this artifact?"
Old Laiyi bitterly laughed, "I’m just a sailor, how would I know such things? Well, President, you have accomplished such an incredible feat, and I am now without regrets. I am full of confidence in the future of the Dragon Cavalry Chamber of Comrce, keep up the good work! Farewell!"
—System Prompt: You have completed the quest "Magic Energy Insurance Box of the Jade Dragon", Experience 1.5 million, Chamber of Comrce Reputation 100,000.
Uh, this is the quest reward? For Da Fei, who has beco accustod to a flood of system ssages following the completion of big tasks, this is hard to adapt to, although these equipnts are also a kind of reward.
Watching Old Laiyi walk out the door, Da Fei’s eyebrows twitched, Not enough rewards!
Da Fei quickly shouted, "Old sir, please wait!"
Old Laiyi turned back in surprise, "President, do you have any further advice?"
Da Fei sincerely said, "I would like to formally invite you to return to the Chamber of Comrce as the President of the Dragon Cavalry Chamber of Comrce. Would you still be willing to serve the Chamber?"
Coltner also snapped back to reality, "Yes, yes, as the Vice President, I also earnestly invite you to return!"
