Damn it, this boss really has no normal skills.

Chapter 188 Fish Diplomacy

Just as the players guessed, this is indeed an external outpost of the underground city, responsible for guarding, reconnaissance, and blocking when foreign enemies invade, so as to increase our strategic depth as much as possible.

And it has indeed proved its military value. Even if the Light Empire directly chose the "Great Holy See Airborne" after the attack was unfavorable, the external outpost still blocked the main force of the coalition forces for a long time, and it was not captured until the defense fortifications completely collapsed and the combat effectiveness was lost. Be tenacious.

Unfortunately, tens of thousands of years have passed. Because it was not isolated from the world and no one else repaired it, the solid earth and stone buildings have long been turned into piles of rubble. Only a few building foundations can show the grand scene of those years.

However, just like the major tribes in the underground plain, Ji Ming does not intend to repair this place, but to use it as an unlimited test to see what the players will do.

And what Gunblade does is...

"Give way, please don't block it, the convoy is coming!"

Under the escort of many players and dogs, several large carts were pushed out of the dungeon and parked in the market.

In the midst of a strong crowd of onlookers, the spearmen lifted up the cloth above, and the smell of water filled the air. It turned out that they were all fresh fish fished out of the Holy Tree Lake.

I can only say that one step is fast, and each step is fast.

While other guilds are still considering how to deal with market problems and how to regain the initiative and development rhythm, Fan Taozhu has already mobilized exchange points, purchased a large number of fishing goods from several Diao Lao guilds, and used dogs to The village's convoy arrived at the market.

Farming is slow and there is little forging. For players, this is the fastest acquisition and the only commodity that can be obtained in large quantities.

Thick straw was spread on the ground as a base, and several awnings were built on top.

Soon, boxes after boxes of catch piled up, forming the first batch of goods in the Pioneer Market.

Although the environment is still simple, it also feels a bit on the right track.

But you definitely can’t make money just by having the goods, you have to have someone willing to exchange them.

Coincidentally, the previous wave of chaos allowed players to discover a large number of tribes with which they could communicate, so Gunblade immediately sent out an envoy to visit with some catches.

With the development of production, people, land, money and food, a large amount of fresh fish is just the food, which is also one of the things that the chiefs of the underground plains are most concerned about.

Although the pioneers were reckless, they didn't even hit the smiling man with their hands, not to mention that they also brought important basic supplies?

Therefore, even tribes like the Cyclops, which don't like outsiders visiting very much, let human envoys in to entertain them.

"Haha, I'm still wondering why so many humans suddenly appeared. It turns out you guys are from deep in the plains."

"You want to be the manager of the market and accept supervision from all parties? Human beings, this is not an easy thing."

"If you can really provide a stable supply of food, we dwarves will never be stingy with the supply of iron!"

Maybe it’s because of fear, maybe it’s because there’s no need to invest, or maybe it’s because the food problem really needs to be solved.

All in all, it went very smoothly, with no objection raised by any tribe, and the vote was passed unanimously, recognizing the existence of the permanent market.

Moreover, we are all decent people. How can you accept a gift from someone else and not show any signs of it?

So I took an enchanted weapon here and a magic scroll there...

When the spearman and others got together and compared the calculations in the game mall and the forging workshop, they realized that this gift alone was almost worth the money.

And the point rewards you can get for several first kills...

I'm afraid that all of them can't even buy the cheapest enchanted weapon.

What’s even more amazing is that I don’t know whether it was because of a deliberate mentality or because someone inside had a bad mouth, but this matter spread like this.

[As expected of the number one guild, he worked secretly and already won the pot by the time he made his move]

[How did they know there was an abandoned market there? Is there any other hidden mission? 】

[I just said you should respect NPCs. It’s good that those idiots who go crazy when they see a tauren were not beaten to death with one punch! 】

Players and audiences were talking about it, and even some good people directly gave Gunblade a special term - Fish-Fish Diplomacy.

From the perspective of hindsight, in fact, they just took advantage of the information gap and played a little clever.

But the authorities are blind to the beholder, and can complete plans, decisions and executions in a short period of time, which is enough to prove the strength of Gunblade.

But now that they have proven that this path is feasible, other guilds will naturally try to imitate it.

But when they pushed the trolley to the edge of the Holy Tree Lake in a hurry, they were greeted with shaking heads one after another.

"Sorry, friend, today's inventory has been sold to the Gunblade Guild."

"There is really no other way. There are too many players. Holy Tree Lake announced a fishing limit after the closed beta. I have already filled up my quota today."

"If you really want it, I can provide fishing gear. You can figure out the rest by yourself."

Several small guilds looked at each other, an unknown fire rising in their hearts.

"Grandma's legs, it turns out the bastard from Gunblade is laying mine for us!"

"What a bastard, you want to stop me from making money?"

"Hey, I'm so angry!"

But what happened to those two groups before was so exciting, and now they are still hanging at the top of everyone's field of vision as a warning.

And although the Justice Guild does not participate in external competition, it has also become the protector of Buddhist players in the logistics center.

Do you want to cause trouble and interfere with everyone's peaceful play and happy farming?

The big hand of the lost.jpg

Therefore, even the most arrogant player only dares to curse a few words verbally, but does not even dare to lift his arms in action.

"Gan, why don't we just find a way to catch some fish? The lake is so big and there are so many fish. If we can't do it, we can do it ourselves!"

"That's it, brothers, follow me into the water!"

"rush!"

It's a pity that even if there is no sliver fishing in this world, there is a reason why fishermen don't go into the water and fish their nets.

"Boss, there is a big fish there!"

"I copied it, it's a tiger shark, brothers, run!"

"Ah, Dartha, don't bite there!"

After drowning alive or being attacked and killed by piranhas, they gave up this method of obtaining large quantities of fresh fish.

I had no choice but to calm down, sit on the shore with a fishing rod and start fishing.

But this fishing sounds simple, but in fact it is also a technical job. Even if there are fishermen willing to help, how difficult is it for players to fish by themselves?

"No, what about the novice protection period agreed upon? Why can't I live and die without getting anything!"

"Where is my water ghost brother? Release a fish for me quickly!"

"Oh, okay, I got it!"

"Damn thing, what did you hit?"

But wait until one of the players puts away the fishing line and lifts it hard, lifts the thing in the water and takes a closer look...

"I'll copy it, the dead fish is telling the truth!"

Even though this is in a game and there are so many people around, they are definitely not afraid of anything.

But the bad luck caused by the taboo and the smell of dead fish made me so sick that I almost vomited on the spot.

In the end, after a long time of hard work, I couldn't get a box of fish together. It was not too shabby to move to another tribe, so I had to give up.

<divclass="contentadv">However, small guilds are helpless. Is the same true for large guilds?

Although Justice has continued the friendship between himself and Gunblade during the closed beta period, and as a guild with relatively loose management, they have not been involved in various disputes.

But as a new force with constant big moves, as the richest man in the game, will Xingkong really not be able to deal with it at all?

Therefore, from inside the game to outside the game, everyone is discussing how they will break the game.

Unexpectedly, they did not send anyone to the Holy Tree Lake at all. Instead, they went to the forging workshop and customized a series of iron products.

Then the "Crazy Different Dimension" program team went to the Dog Village to find players who were chefs in reality.

The guests interacted with famous NPCs such as Chimis and participated personally, making a large table of different dishes, which was quite unique.

It's a pity that no one cared about it at all, but started quarreling in the barrage and comment area.

[No, why did it suddenly become a food show? Is it really bad? 】

[Tsk, you know that pretty girl is an embroidered pillow]

[Sour, you are just jealous of my 124th internet husband! 】

However, just as public opinion intensified and everyone was wondering what the hell they were doing, the live broadcast room announced the content of the next phase of the event.

Liu Zhen's greasy face was on the camera, and he asked the staff to control the camera and walk outside the village.

"I believe everyone already knows that there is a very powerful tauren tribe in the southwest corner of the underground plain."

"Next, our guests will go there together to visit Chief Argus, and at the same time bring you more news about the Iron Heel Tribe!"

More than ten cartloads of catch can be exchanged for the nods of the major tribes, and the few exquisite iron tools can naturally be exchanged for a banquet from Argus.

What's more, he didn't even have to pay for the meal, but was brought by the show crew themselves, so Lao Niu could just sit back and enjoy it.

"Respect Chief Argus, I am Hu Bian, the leader of the Crazy Group, and now we sincerely want to invite you to taste the delicacies that belong to us humans!"

"But before that, please be sure to put on this highest-quality clothing that we will dedicate to our friends."

I really don’t know how they worked so hard. The gift given to Argus by the Starry Sky Guild turned out to be a black robe decorated with countless metals.

With the metal crown on his head and the golden sheath sword on his waist, the tall chief looked like both a king and a general. In short, he was very intimidating.

This group of tauren living in the underground plain had never seen anything good. The table full of treasures and exquisite clothes immediately made their greedy eyes shine.

Even Argus, who was relatively steady, was shocked and even felt a little reserved when sitting on the main seat.

Argus (flattered version).jpg

And since he can work in the entertainment industry, I don't know if he has any other skills, but the skill of flattering and saying good things must be passed the test.

One person praised him for being powerful and strong, and the other person held up a sour and sweet fruit wine that was so strong and sour, and the atmosphere of the meal was quickly stirred up.

hot?

Then it’s time to get down to business!

Su Banglai pretended to be drunk and gave Argus another drink.

"Chief Argus, I heard that friends from another guild have established a permanent market. Have you heard about it?"

"Well..."

It's hard to expect an honest cow to hide things in his heart, let alone one whose face is already red from drinking.

So as long as the guests asked, even if it was just a slight detour, he would be able to say whatever they wanted and answer their questions.

[So it was Argus who told the Gunblade Guild people that there was a market there? 】

[Oh my god, Argus’s level is actually thirty-eight. Can the players catch up with this progress in a month? 】

[My brother is so handsome when he drinks. Give me more shots and I will shoot ten rockets! 】

And because it was broadcast simultaneously around the world, foreigners were also watching this scene.

[Hou Li Crab, is this a Japanese costume? Why haven’t I seen it in the game? 】

[The Minotaur is wearing Chinese-style clothes. How could I have such a dream? Could it be that Old Mo next door is flying leaves again? 】

[Great, this is the traditional costume of our Silla people, which shows our international influence]

[The Silla thief is stealing Siris' things again. Don't think that you have won after meeting the old king once. The Prime Minister is ours]

[Damn Tianzhu people don’t deserve to talk on the Internet. Are you sleeping in cow dung? 】

However, no matter what kind of cyber hegemony is going on on the Internet, by the time the meal is finished, both the host and the guest are enjoying themselves.

Argus was drowsy and took a huge battle ax from the hands of his tribe.

"You are friends of the tauren, this represents our friendship."

Although it is still a gift, there are still differences.

At least the second-ring magic scroll received by Gunblade is definitely not as "valuable" as the battle ax engraved with the Ironhoof tribe's totem!

Howard sat in the living room of the castle and watched all this, and the last bit of worry on his face relaxed.

You build trade routes by following the map we created, and of course we can take advantage of your reputation to go further!

Fan Taozhu, who pretended to be happily chatting with various players, frowned slightly and gradually tightened his fingers.

It seems that even with the early layout, we still cannot underestimate the heroes of all walks of life. There are great talents among these more than a thousand players...

Compared with the travel and exploration on the first day, the PPVVE masters' battle on the second day is definitely more exciting.

Therefore, even though the dinner party was over, people from all walks of life on the Internet were still discussing the pros and cons, and gradually came to their senses and began to publish their own opinions.

[So who wins this one, Gunblade or Starry Sky? 】

[I think it’s Gunblade. It’s too bad to rely on your own player influence and strength to monopolize gold mines.]

[I think it’s Xingkong. Not to mention the domestic hot search for this dinner, even the top of the big black cross has reached a high level]

Finally, a blogger who usually pays attention to international current affairs published an article and put forward a new point of view.

[I think actually they all won, or rather they all lost]

[Gunblade wins in the game and occupies the greatest initiative in the game; while Starry Sky wins outside the game and earns the greatest popularity and traffic outside the game. Therefore, correspondingly, they cannot get the places they want. , and gave it to the other party]

[In the future, no matter how many developable forces Gun Blade communicates with, they will be promoted by Star Sky as their allies; and no matter how wide the circle of friends cultivated by Star Sky is, Gun Blade will turn them into their own business routes]

Are they all so powerful?

Sitting in a bar inside the high tower castle, Ji Ming finished reading the out-of-game summary of the players' moves.

Although his expected goal is to train several high-level professionals from players to dominate the underground plains.

But according to the current development speed and trend, I am afraid that people will be able to kill people on the ground in less than half a month and wreak havoc on the world.

...It’s difficult, it’s very stressful.

After taking a look at his experience gain table, he had no choice but to teleport to the morgue.

Looking at the corpses of several wild monsters in front of him, he waved to Sylvia.

"Resurrection them, it's time to gain experience."
