System prompts: The legendary mission of Kaos is officially launched!
System prompts: The first ring mission is started!
Mission requirements: Clear out the monsters entrenched in the ruins of the castle.
Mission reward: 1,000,000 experience points, +50 reputation in the plane of destiny, +2,000 territory construction funds!
When Zhao Xi put the Lord's Seal on his body, two system prompts popped up in his field of vision, which turned out to be the start of a new side mission!
Only then did Zhao Xi realize that he had thought of things too simply. He did not immediately have a rich territory after obtaining the Lord's Seal. Whether he could truly control it would depend on completing different tasks.
System prompt: Due to the existence of uncertain risk factors, no more than 10 mercenaries/adventurers are allowed to be recruited to participate in the elimination team. Exceeding the limit will increase the difficulty of the task!
Uncertain risk factors?
The third system prompt that just appeared made Zhao Xi fall into thinking.
The system prompts were not very clear, but based on reasoning from the task itself, he guessed that the so-called "uncertain risk factors" should refer to players from the opposing camp.
Just like the task of retaking the giant rock castle, in addition to demons and monsters, there are also players from the empire camp guarding the castle. So now he has to clean up his territory, and it is normal for him to encounter hostile players.
This is a confrontation mission!
It is precisely because of this that the system has a third prompt, allowing him to recruit mercenaries or adventurers. Otherwise, relying on his own strength plus 300 elite warriors to clear the ruins of monsters will not be a problem.
Should we bring back Team Yangmei?
Zhao Xi's first thought was to bring back Team Yangmei, who had recently returned to the main plane, and hire other NPCs or players, since his own team members would not be reliable.
However, this idea was immediately rejected by him as soon as it came up. Now that the Yangmei Team is overwhelming the business of many companies, this side task obviously cannot be completed in a day or two, so it is not appropriate to call them back.
As for the other teams in Rhinoceros Xinyu, there is no need to think about it. Even if they are level enough to come to the Destiny Plane, they have to start from level zero without previous accumulation, and they don’t know where they will be randomly assigned.
So after much deliberation, I still have to recruit mercenary adventurers.
Once it was determined, Zhao Xi's style of doing things had always been vigorous and resolute. He immediately bid farewell to Gloria, did not take away the 300 soldiers, and returned to Locke Fortress.
Recruiting NPC mercenaries or player adventurers, Locke Fortress, which has a large number of high-level professionals, is the only option. And Zhao Xi knows exactly where to recruit the people he needs.
Twilight Tavern!
Zhao Xi has been to this tavern once before. He was attending a member meeting of the Professional Players Alliance in Locke Fortress. Knowing that it is one of the strongholds of the Professional Players Alliance, there are usually a large number of professional players entering and exiting it.
Zhao Xi is not planning to find NPC mercenaries, because no matter how good the AI is, there is still a huge gap between it and real player characters. He may face a group of players from hostile camps, and the performance level of his teammates will be greatly affected.
It determines the success or failure of the first ring mission.
When Zhao Xi returned to Locke Fortress and came to the Twilight Tavern again, it was already dark.
Night is when pub business is at its best.
Even if you are a professional player, your game life cannot be endless battles and tasks. Your body will not be tired and your mind will be bored. Then you need to sit down and have a glass of wine to relax and have useful exchanges with your peers.
So even if the Twilight Tavern is located in an alley in a remote corner, the business at night is still very good.
When Zhao Xi arrived, there were already thirty or forty players inside.
He was not in a hurry and found a seat in front of the bar, ordered a glass of ale and tasted it slowly.
As time goes by, more and more professional players appear in the tavern. They are all members of the professional alliance. They can enjoy different discounts when spending money at this professional alliance's contact point.
Best of all, there's no better place to trade intelligence resources than here.
Seeing that most of the wine tables were occupied by players, Zhao Xi stood up, threw a dozen gold coins on the bar, then reached out and knocked on the copper bell placed next to him, and said loudly: "Next round of wine.
, I invite you!”
This is a tradition in the tavern. Anyone who is willing to treat guests only needs to ring the copper bell, which means that everyone present has to be treated to a drink. Although it is usually cheap ale, it is not a small gesture.
Of course it's a good thing to have someone treat you. It's rare to have a round of drinks, and it also means good luck. So most of the players raised their glasses and greeted Zhao Xi with a smile.
Zhao Xi took the opportunity to say: "I have a mission that requires three guardian knights, three elemental mages, two exploration thieves and two holy light priests. The employment period for the mission is one day, and the treatment is favorable. Welcome to sign up!"
At this time, the benefits of spending money are highlighted. Without the foreshadowing of a drink, not many people would pay attention to Zhao Xi, but now he has at least proved his financial strength.
The gold coins in the destiny plane are much more valuable than those in the main plane. Even though there are many professional players present, there are not many who can casually take out more than ten gold coins in their pockets!
Immediately someone asked loudly: "What is the task and how is the reward calculated?"
Zhao Xi replied: "90% of the first part of the side mission may be a confrontation mission. The remuneration will be discussed in detail!"
The people here are all professional players, and they can basically understand it without Zhao Xi explaining it in detail.
"Fighting the Imperial Dog? Count me in, a level 34 guardian knight, a full set of excellent equipment, and three secret skills!"
The inquiring player said without hesitation: "I have two brothers, let's join together!"
The mage sitting next to him was stunned and said: "Tiger, don't be so anxious, I didn't even ask clearly!"
The knight named Tiger suddenly laughed: "Who is this boss? You didn't recognize him? The glorious number one Zhao Daniu! Are you afraid of suffering a loss when doing missions with him?"
As the saying goes, a person is reflected by the shadow of a famous tree. Zhao Xi did not need to introduce himself, and the tiger knight recognized him.
When he shouted, everyone suddenly woke up and their attitudes were completely different.
So what happened next was very simple. When the players present confirmed that it was Zhao Daniu who was recruiting team members, they were speechless. They rushed up to sign up one after another, and the entire bar was surrounded by water.
Zhao Xi did not expect them to be so enthusiastic, so he had to recruit on-site and select the highest-level players. Ten team members were quickly recruited.
