Hearing the dense, incessant notifications by his ear, Qin Feng quickly opened the chat interface to check the private ssages other Lord Players had sent him.
Most of them got straight to the point, directly asking Qin Feng how he had obtained a Heroic Unit.
Others were more subtle, opening with, "I want to be friends," though their true intentions were crystal clear.
To that,
Qin Feng chose to simply ignore them.
Only two private ssages earned a second glance.
mad madam: "Hello, Tingfeng. I’m ’mad madam,’ the Alliance Leader of the Hafke Alliance. I was wondering if you’ve joined any other Lord Alliances. If not, you might consider allying with us. We could help each other out and explore this Lord World together."
Don’t call MC: "????????"
Qin Feng’s finger hovered over the chat box, his eyes narrowing in thought. After a mont, he swiped mad madam’s chat window to the background and tapped on the dialogue box for "Don’t call MC," typing three words where the cursor was flashing.
"What’s up, boss?"
Don’t call MC instantly typed back:
"Bro, I’m not the boss, you’re the boss!"
"My god!"
"How did you do it?"
"Recruiting a Heroic Unit this quickly?"
Qin Feng typed back a little awkwardly:
"Uh..."
"Well..."
"Boss MC..."
"If I said I don’t know what happened either..."
"Would you believe ..."
To be perfectly honest,
Qin Feng wasn’t lying.
He really had no idea what had just happened, what the Little Owl had whispered to the Violent Bear Boss that made it suddenly change its mind, turning from a "fight to the death" King of the forest to a "desperate to survive" Riding and Cutting captive.
It had all happened so fast.
And it was just so bizarre.
Faced with Qin Feng’s sowhat "perfunctory" answer, Don’t call MC didn’t seem to mind. Instead, he said:
"I believe you."
"I can tell."
"Tingfeng, you seem like a straightforward guy."
"Besides, it’s actually pretty common for a new Lord to inexplicably win the favor and affection of certain heroic characters."
"I’ve seen many similar situations before."
"Yours is just a bit over the top, though."
"In such a short ti, too. You only logged back into the ga a couple of days ago, and now you’ve suddenly recruited a Hero..."
"Anyway,"
"Just take your ti and figure it out."
"The fact that you could attract the attention of one Heroic Unit so quickly ans you can attract more of the sa type."
"Try to find the key to it all, then leverage that personal advantage to its fullest. Recruit more Heroic Units, and your power will definitely skyrocket."
After a pause, Don’t call MC added:
"Oh."
"Right."
"One more thing."
"Rember to always observe the daily habits of your Heroic Units. Make sure you never cross their moral lines or do anything that annoys them."
"Otherwise, you’ll lose a ton of affection and Loyalty."
"It’ll affect your relationship with them."
"The main thing is, Heroic Units are completely different from the regular villagers we recruit. They have their own independent personalities and thoughts. Once they decide you’re not a good Lord, or if they get a bad impression of you, they’ll just up and leave, no hesitation..."
Hearing this, Qin Feng lowered his gaze in thought, a look of realization flashing in his eyes.
’So that’s how it is.’
’Normally recruited Heroic Creatures aren’t 100% loyal. It’s like finding a partner or a wife; the player has to carefully manage the relationship between them.’
’If you run into a hot-headed, fiery-tempered Violent Dragon, you have to go along with everything they want, be as obedient as a puppy, just to keep them by your side.’
’But if you et a gentle, sweet-natured girl, you have to show enough decisiveness to make her feel your resolve and sense of responsibility as a man. Only then can you establish a convincing image as a leader within that gentle aura.’
Thinking of this, Qin Feng couldn’t help but recall his own recruitnt experiences, realizing they perfectly matched the relationship theory MC had proposed.
For instance,
Diablo was a rational, nerdy rat-kin.
’Recruiting him didn’t require much thought. I just had to display my Powerful strength as a ’Divine Chosen Lord’ and my strange brainwashing ability as the ’Riding and Cutting Dominator.’ Under the threat of absolute power, combined with the impending crisis of his Poison Arrow tribe’s extinction, Diablo just had to weigh the pros and cons for a mont before naturally bowing his head to .’
’Then there’s the Little Owl, ’Shadow,’ who’s a natural-born coward.’
’He said it himself—"I fly around the forest every day, making friends with all sorts of forest animals, just to avoid being hunted by other creatures. I also set up my own forest spies so so dangerous, unfamiliar Demon Beast doesn’t suddenly show up and kick to death like a stray dog."’
’So, recruiting the Little Owl wasn’t hard either. All it took was a little shock from a Ranger, and the little guy was scared into submission at the speed of light.’
’Combined with the ’Riding and Cutting’ system’s brainwashing function,’
’Even though the Little Owl is still a coward and won’t actively charge into the front lines of every battle, if I personally order him to his death, he will dutifully fulfill his responsibility as a ’Riding and Cutting’ companion and fly unhesitatingly into the heart of the most dangerous battlefield, like a moth to a fla.’
’Finally, there’s the Violent Bear Boss, a proud and arrogant Overlord Level creature.’
’He’s like an ancient, supre Emperor. As an Emperor destined by heaven, how could he kneel to an enemy like a common vagrant in the wilderness and willingly beco a prisoner to be humiliated?’
So,
His initial decision was to "fight to the death, never surrender."
’Even if every last drop of blood drained from my veins, even if all the Life Force in my body faded away, don’t even think of making kneel at the feet of you, a human from an alien race!’
’That is the destiny of a King!’
’...Until the Little Owl swooped in out of nowhere and shattered his proud psychological defenses with its mysterious linguistic arts...’
"Okay."
"I get it now."
"Thanks, Boss MC, for teaching another lesson."
"But I still have a few questions I’d like to ask you, Boss MC. I don’t know if you have ti right now?"
Don’t call MC waved it off:
"Ah."
"Don’t ntion it."
"Just ask whatever’s on your mind."
"I’ll be in the Lord World all night, so I can take my ti teaching you."
Hearing this, Qin Feng thought for a mont, took a deep breath, and then threw out all the questions that were currently on his mind:
"Is it necessary for to join a Player Alliance?"
"If it is, what’s the deal with that ’Hafke Alliance’ that’s so active in the regional channel? What kind of organization are they?"
"Besides completing certain special achievents in the Lord System, are there any other ways to obtain a rare Talent Resource like Dragon Crystals?"
"For a Zero-star (Purple) difficulty Lost Secret Realm, what level of strength do I need to even be qualified to challenge it?"
