Chapter 85 Castle Auction
"Mo Lan, what is the limit of your stone wall technique?"
As they walked, Zou Peng suddenly asked, and Mo Lan was slightly stunned when he heard it.
"What limits are you asking about? Depth? Intensity?"
“Just now I came out of your underground maze, and an idea suddenly came to me.
Can we build a base underground as long as the underground space you create is large enough and the support is strong enough?
Then we can build a base underground, which is more exposed and vulnerable than a base above ground.
The underground base is very hidden and basically does not require any defensive force to ensure its safety.
As long as you set up a maze and then seal the entrances and exits, no one can enter or leave.
Whoever dares to be reckless will be shown the collapse. To use your words, he will not be able to get out even if he dies.
If you can keep the depth at forty or fifty meters.
Who can withstand the collapse of such a thick layer of soil?
Can the elite level withstand it?"
Mo Lan pondered for a moment and then shook his head.
"It probably won't hold up. If it does, then it's definitely not deep enough. At worst, we can just dig deeper."
"We shouldn't encounter a master-level enemy in the short term, right? Then this is more than enough.
But then your workload will become very large.”
"That doesn't matter. I just like building things. It would be so cool to turn the underground into a maze.
As soon as you mentioned the underground base, I felt excited and itchy. Ever since I developed this spell, I always wanted to build something, but there was nothing to build.
Now that you have it, aren’t you happy? And aren’t we going to train a team of mages for you?
Stonewall is the simplest first-level spell I know so far. I will use it to teach you. After you have taught them well, you will have a group of perfect magic workers, um, magician workers."
"By the way, have you finished all the levels?"
"It's all done. Level 5. The intelligence attribute points are all above 15. It's been such a long time. If it's not done yet, would I be embarrassed to come to you?"
"Okay, where's the confidentiality agreement? I was planning to make the mage team a big hit and then announce the mage job transfer method.
If you tell me this, my whole plan will be disrupted."
"It's okay. I've already said it in advance. It's a closed training session. We've signed a confidentiality agreement. Violators will be fined 3,000 yuan."
“So low?”
Mo Lan was a little surprised.
"It's not legal if it's too high. Don't worry, I specifically signed the contract when I signed it. The ownership of the game account belongs to the company. If Party B violates the contract, it will compensate Party A for 130% of the losses."
Zou Peng waved his hand.
"And don't worry, these people are now in the Internet cafe I rented. They are not allowed to go home. I'm watching them."
"Oh, it's really closed, won't they have any objections?"
"What's your opinion on getting an extra hundred a day?"
Zou Peng asked back.
“By the way, the screenshot function of their helmets is technically blocked, so even if someone really spreads it, it doesn’t matter if they say it on the forum.
There are so many people saying this, but without any evidence, who would believe it?"
“Okay, since you are ready, let’s take them out of the city for training. It’s really hard to train them in this city.
Besides, with so many people and eyes, it is impossible to keep secrets.”
"The supplies are ready and we can set off at any time."
"Then let's go."
More than half an hour later , a huge team walked out of the north gate and marched towards the mountains under the gaze of a group of players.
"Which guild are these from? There are so many people."
"I haven't seen it before. I guess it's some new guild."
"It's possible. Recently, more and more guilds have come to Red Maple City, and the North Gate has become more and more prosperous."
“Of course not. Now that Red Maple City has become famous, the players in this area have basically started to flow towards Red Maple City.
It is said that Red Maple City is known as one of the top 100 main cities for players!"
"Yes. Oh, by the way, have you heard that there seems to be a castle to be auctioned in the city? The big guilds are going crazy and want to buy it."
"A castle? Are you kidding me? Can they afford it? It would cost at least several hundred or even a thousand gold coins, right?"
“That’s a low estimate. I estimate it’s several thousand gold nas. After all, it’s a castle, and a castle represents an entire territory.
And I remember that this castle is outside of Red Maple City, and it is said that it has a village attached to it? I think tens of thousands of gold coins are not too much."
“No matter how expensive it is, this castle is the first castle in the game to be auctioned off.
As long as you buy it, it means you own the first territory in the entire game. If you use it as a guild headquarters, there are no actual benefits to be gained.
In terms of fame, the guild will become famous in the whole game, right? The appeal of players will be enhanced, right? The centripetal force of members will be enhanced, right? The guild's status will instantly be different from other guilds, right?
Not to mention the tangible benefits, these alone are enough to drive the big and top guilds crazy.
This is from the perspective of determination, and as for money, the price of copper nas has recently been around 0.89 yuan, about 90 cents.
One guina is 9,000 yuan, and 10,000 guina is 90 million yuan. Hmm, that seems a bit much, doesn't it? "
"Maybe it won't sell for 10,000 gold nas. Also, I feel like the price of copper nas is going to go up."
As soon as the words fell, the few people looked at each other with strange expressions, and immediately left.
Mo Lan had already led his men far away, but he vaguely heard that a castle was going to be auctioned. This immediately reminded him of the carriage he met on the road when he came to Hongfeng City before.
"It's them?"
"What is it?"
"I was wondering if I had seen the one who auctioned the castle before."
"Oh, that. I heard that all the major guilds have started to raise funds for the auction. Even the price of copper nath, which has been falling, has stopped for a while and is showing a slight upward trend."
"You saved some too?"
Zou Peng smiled when he heard this.
"The Chamber of Commerce will definitely need some working capital to operate, but there isn't much because I suspect the price of copper nas will plummet soon, so I prepared some funds to buy at the bottom and get a bargain."
"That's not right. Once the news of the fundraising came out, everyone was optimistic about copper Nas. It's ok if the price doesn't rise, but how can it fall?"
Mo Lan was surprised.
"It's because everyone is so enthusiastic. If the price goes up, won't the cost of exchange for those guilds increase greatly? Will they be willing?
Hey, they have a lot of capital behind them, and they are also familiar with the tricks used in the stock market.
There is no need for discussion, everyone will tacitly work together to suppress it.
Even if someone sees it clearly, they won’t make it public, but will quietly prepare money to enter the market to buy at the bottom and make a profit.”
Mo Lan rolled his eyes.
"It's almost like turning a game trading platform into a stock market. Sooner or later, the game authorities will have to take action on this platform and standardize its operations."
"That's a matter for the future. The rhythm of this time is probably already in the making."
"Did you find any clues?"
Upon hearing this, Zou Peng shook his head in a very stupid manner and tapped his temples with his fingers.
"No, I just go by feel."
The three were speechless.
"Be careful or you might be cut like a leek."
"It doesn't matter. Copper Nas has practical use value anyway. At worst, we can just treat it as working capital for the Chamber of Commerce. It's no loss anyway."
