Chapter 381 Victoria's War Preparation Monthly Pass)
The documents on Nicholas' desk are documents from the Merchant Alliance.
The content is not complicated, just keep Winterfell neutral and not get involved in the dispute between Morgan and Sherlock.
But Nicholas himself was already prepared for this.
After thinking for a long time, he decided to side with Shylock. After all, the potential that the mysterious Shylock had shown in just a few months, and the unpredictable power behind it, made Nicholas feel incredible.
Even if someone told him now that Lucifer was Sherlock's father, he wouldn't be surprised at all.
However, the orders of the Merchant Alliance cannot be violated, especially when it comes to matters involving Winterfell. Although he is the city lord, his rights cannot directly transcend the Merchant Alliance.
After careful consideration, Nicholas decided to support Sherlock and the Eternal Realm Dungeon in any way he could.
He called his assistant, the Ooze Monster Butler.
————————
Shylock was reading Nicholas's letter in the city lord's hall. The content of the letter mentioned that Nicholas would help Shylock in a private capacity. He had decided to sell all his property to form an army of mercenaries and would be there.
Recently, I went to the Eternal Kingdom dungeon to help defend the city.
However, a simple estimate of the time showed that this was not realistic. The battle would officially begin in three days. Three months might have passed since Nicholas sold off his property, formed a mercenary army, and headed to the eternal kingdom dungeon.
But it didn't matter, Sherlock quickly wrote a reply, the content was very simple:
I don’t need the soldiers anymore, and I don’t really need the money. Just give me more equipment to support me.
Sherlock also made a list, which mainly included crossbows and arrows, as well as equipment for goblins, kobolds and beastmen. Among them, beastmen's equipment required the most. As for goblins, Sherlock didn't have any.
Yes, after all, Goblin equipment has very few consumables, and few Goblin players are willing to spend a lot of money to buy good equipment. They would rather wait until they become goblins or kobolds in the second round before upgrading their equipment.
After all, in the goblin state, it is difficult to even fight against underground spiders. As for goblins, as long as the weapon proficiency is up to standard and paired with a good set of equipment, players can already fight against underground spiders without any damage.
The beastmen are even more exaggerated. With a team composed entirely of beastmen, plus a large number of primary life potions, there are already many teams that can stably conquer the fifteen-man large dungeon [School of the Undead and Training Ground].
The emergence of the beastman race is definitely a qualitative leap in players' strength.
Of course, Nicholas would not refuse Shylock's suggestion. After all, Shylock's reasons were so good that he immediately replied to the letter and made arrangements immediately to deliver it tomorrow. Shylock also promised that as long as he was around, he would work hard.
Support Nicholas to become the city lord, support him to become the area manager in the future, and then support him to become the general manager, until he becomes the CEO of the Merchant Alliance, marries Bai Fumei, and reaches the pinnacle of life.
Forgetting Nicholas's grateful reply, Sherlock still had many important things to do.

The players in Victoria Free City are still busy as usual.
When you go online every day, the first thing you do is to complete the daily tasks, which are the same as the daily tasks in the Eternal Kingdom dungeon. Most of them are hard labor, cutting down trees, transporting, processing wood, making equipment, cleaning, building houses and walls, etc.
After completing these tasks, the next step is to go to the spider lair to get materials. The final option is to go to the Sighing Wilderness to get materials and play pvp at the same time.
As for the battlefield gameplay similar to the Eternal Kingdom dungeon, it is not yet open. As for the dungeon gameplay, although the Ogre Fortress has been developed, no Victoria player has reached the prestige level and cannot enter.
Generally speaking, players in Victoria have more options to choose from than players in Eternal Kingdom dungeons, but players have not complained about this.
After all, there are still a lot of things that can be done and must be done in this game. The Free City of Victoria has just been established. Just building the city and collecting materials have already taken up a lot of players' time, and if the equipment is upgraded, it will completely
You can use the game currency and reputation to exchange it at the Quartermaster Hamster. Although the equipment channels are simple, the quality is no worse than the equipment in the Eternal Kingdom dungeon.
In addition, bandits siege the city from time to time, which is quite exciting. The last time the bandits sieged the city, the players gained a lot. Not to mention the equipment, the hundreds of horses captured were enough for the players.
When I was excited, the various sounds produced by the horses were flourishing.
From reselling horses to building stables, making and selling feed, repairing horseshoes, and even horse massage and horse health, there are players doing business.
Players in Victoria will soon have a new mission.
The story begins after Lilo came back from the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon. When she returned to the Free City of Victoria, the first thing she did was to declare that Victoria was on a state of war readiness.
Order players to reserve war supplies and transport some basic combat equipment.
That's right, it's transportation.
The Free City of Victoria currently does not have the conditions to build war equipment, and things including crossbows, ballistas, etc. are all provided by the Eternal Kingdom dungeon.
Players in the dungeon carry these items to the crossroads, and then players in Victoria carry these items back to the crossroads. The cycle repeats very regularly.
As for the problem of bandits, since the last time the bandits attacked the city and were defeated by the players, and they killed Edward Scissorhands with a sword, there have been no bandits at all. Occasionally, you can see a few scattered ones.
Bandits are also bandits who really have no place to go and still stay in their strongholds after being dispersed.
Those who dared to run out and look for things were all killed by the players scattered in the forest.
In addition to these things, Victoria's players also have one more thing to do every day, which is to learn how to use crossbows and bows with the elf mentor.
Different from the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon, the Victoria Free City has the first NPC that can systematically teach long-range weapons.
Although Zhuo Genbao doesn't have much interest in long-range weapons, learning long-range weapons is listed as one of his daily tasks. Moreover, the price of crossbows or bows has also dropped rapidly recently, and even the cheap ones can be bought by everyone.
A handful.
Of course, the reason for the decline in the price of crossbows is not the self-regulation of the market, but Liluo's order after returning. In order to improve their strength as soon as possible and prepare for the upcoming war, the prices of all long-range weapons
All greatly reduced.
The result of the big price reduction is that long-range weapons have become cheap, and you can afford them as long as you have nothing to do and are doing tasks.
The probability of accidental injury among players in the Free City of Victoria began to increase greatly, and many people were shot to death by their own people inexplicably.
Of course, these are all necessary pains on the long-distance road. Isn’t that how the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon came to be?
However, Zhaogenbao still has a question:
"Who are we fighting with in our war preparations?"
"You still have to ask, of course it's with the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon!"
Ou Chi spear said while adjusting his crossbow:
"Think about it, the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon is about to start a battle with other dungeons. According to the background story, we and the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon are sworn enemies. How could we let go of such a good backstab opportunity?"
"Although I don't want to admit it, what you said makes sense, but it is impossible for this game to have such a wise plot. Although our Victoria and the Eternal Kingdom are mortal enemies, both camps are the player's camp. When one camp is fighting against evil
, the other party is adding insult to injury. Normal players will immediately become mentally disturbed, and the game planner will only appear if his head is watered..."
The leopard-headed Lingchong was stunned for a moment when he said this, and looked at each other with the other two friends:
"Damn it, the dog planner has always been out of his mind. We won't really go to the Eternal Kingdom dungeon, will we?!"
(Third update, please recommend monthly tickets! There is another update, it will be posted before 12 o'clock. If you have monthly tickets, please give me some.)
