I made the Dragon God in the game.

"Uh"

The indigenous mercenaries were killed.

Tang Wen found it quite funny as he listened, but it was also the truth.

Players will not die and are not afraid of death, which directly leads to a significant reduction in labor costs.

Many times, it takes time and materials to avoid casualties among indigenous mercenaries, and players are directly gambling with their lives.

If you win the bet, you save materials. If you lose, you gamble again and save materials when you win.

In any case, this unnecessary material can be saved.

Regardless of the player's strength, as long as the player risks his life to hunt the beast, the game is over.

Because the internal competition among a large number of players will lead to a gradual decrease in the selling price of World of Warcraft materials, it doesn't matter between players. Everyone is at the same starting line. Everyone will naturally figure out the most cost-saving way to play. After a short-term profit, they will lower the price and crush their competitors.

However, no player could kill anyone else, and the indigenous mercenaries disappeared one after another.

They either changed careers or disappeared quietly into the wilderness while forcibly lowering costs to keep up with the players, never to be seen again.

This is a cruel fact.

However, this is becoming more and more common in today's situation, and the advantage of players not dying is too great.

Even areas like mercenaries have been quickly swallowed up by player guilds.

Although the players are in chaos, some of the player guild presidents have a long-term vision. They establish their own credibility from the very beginning and take a piece of the mercenary pie.

Often, two groups of indigenous people would fight each other, hire players together, and then after a lot of hacking, the players would happily take the money away, but many people would die on both sides.

It’s not that the players are acting, the players are really working hard, and this is credibility.

The main thing is that players can’t die.

Therefore, inviting players together is the same as not inviting any players at all. This is a bet on whose invited players are more powerful.

We have to invite them. If we do, there might still be suspense, but if we don’t, there will be no suspense at all.

However, although players have taken away a large number of professional jobs, their presence has also forced the society to develop rapidly and technology to advance rapidly, thus providing a large number of jobs.

It's like farmers being forced off the land and into factories.

It is not a major security risk because players will produce a bunch of idle and restless street urchins.

Oh, the biggest street scoundrels and the biggest safety risks are players?
That's fine.

"Back to business."

The player continued to speak to Tang Wen.

“According to investigations, with the players’ rampant hunting, the density of monsters in the wilderness has been greatly reduced.

The sensitivity of monsters has increased exponentially, and the time required to find monsters and the difficulty of hunting monsters have also increased exponentially.

This directly leads to the fact that in addition to some mercenary groups that truly master the core technology, they can also go deep into the wilderness and mountains to find and hunt Warcraft.

It is difficult for most mercenary groups to hunt monsters, and the coincidences in exploring mineral veins and collecting elixirs are too high, making it difficult to maintain the normal operation of a mercenary group.

In addition, because they were so busy before, they were all frantically hunting monsters, although they did sell a lot of monsters.

But the profits were not high. Apart from completely lowering the prices of Warcraft materials and expanding the area of ​​human activities again, basically no money was saved.

All the money that should be used has been used up, so these mercenary groups have become impoverished, and Sirius is a very common one among them.

This is also the fundamental reason why Haoyu Group was able to use real money to acquire control of the Sirius Mercenary Group and initially acquire command capabilities.

Although it is difficult to purchase game currency with real money nowadays, real money can at least maintain real life and improve one’s status in the real world to a certain extent.

It won’t happen that the loss of income in the game will lead to the loss of income in real life.

After all, although there are many players now, when looking at the country's more than one billion people, players are still only a small part.

Real society is still functioning normally, and real money still has meaning.”

Tang Wen had also finished reading the brief report on the Sirius Mercenary Group, and his fingers tapped on the table again and again.

Da. Da. Da. Da.
A Tianlang mercenary group is nothing, with only dozens of players, some professional-level and a few elite-level ones. Not to mention sending Zhang Zhong and his men, even a random master-level Armor Warrior can easily wipe them out.

"Moo!"

An armored rhinoceros more than three meters tall swaggered past Tang Wen, with two female rhinoceroses more than two meters tall nestled on its left and right.

Oh, no need for anyone to go, this armored rhinoceros can just take his harem for a walk and flatten the area.

Without any struggle.

The strength of these people is indeed not worth mentioning, and this matter itself is not worth mentioning either.

He was collected here because Haoyu Group was on Tiangong Pavilion's attention list, so news about them would naturally have more weight.

That's why this trivial matter was reported to Tang Wen.

It’s a small matter, but considering the background of the times, it may not be a small matter.

Tang Wen pondered for a moment.

"There are currently some player mercenaries in a relatively poor state. In the area where the Sirius Mercenary Group is located, how many of these people are there?"

This player had obviously investigated these data, and when he saw Tang Wen asking the question, he spoke directly.

"If we expand the scope and gather together, we will definitely be able to gather tens of thousands of professional players.

And they are all mercenary players with good combat capabilities."

Tang Wen's face turned slightly serious.

From this perspective, this matter may be quite serious.

If we could really gather tens of thousands of professional players, their blood would rush and the clouds would surge.

Then this is definitely a considerable force.

It can even be said that if the command is good, it will not be difficult to capture an indigenous city without players.

Although whether they can hold on and fight well in the subsequent security battle is another matter, this is enough to demonstrate their strength.

If such an army were to attack Tiangong Pavilion
Then there is a chance that we can cause some damage to Tiangong Pavilion.

If Tiangong Pavilion does not respond in time.

Of course, strength is secondary, but this power that is enough to hunt down ordinary legends can definitely make people excited, making people feel that they can do anything and that no one can stop him.

This expansion of power often leads to a lower IQ.

However, in order to achieve this effect, a crucial step must be completed, which is a necessary condition and the most important condition.

"Please check for me which forces have applied to exchange for the Extraordinary Military Manual in the past month.

Furthermore, from this point on, every application must be addressed to me in addition.”

"Yes."

Soon after he finished speaking, a long list was placed on Tang Wen's desk.

Looking at this densely packed list, I took a quick glance and saw that the serial number at the end of the list was application number 781.

All of these have passed the preliminary review and are indeed sincere applicants and are preparing for it.

Tang Wen figured out the reason at a glance.

"It's all because of Hao Wei. If Hao Wei hadn't killed two legends, he would have captured another city.

This elementary infantry drill manual won’t become popular again.”

Tang Wen muttered, looking at the list.

“Are these all on a mission?”

Precious infantry drill manuals can be exchanged, but the price and threshold will naturally not be low.

If you want to exchange it, you can.

Tiangong Pavilion would issue tasks every day. Some of these tasks involved drawing maps, some involved terrain transformation, some involved collecting elemental data from various places, some involved collecting certain materials, some involved exchanging newly discovered materials, as well as the long-standing task of collecting elemental metals and high-level elixirs without a cap.

These tasks can accumulate Tiangong Pavilion's "reputation" while earning Tiangong Pavilion points of corresponding value. Points can be exchanged for Infantry Drill Manual, but the prerequisite is that the reputation level meets the requirements.

In other words, Tiangong Pavilion can only redeem it if it has good power.

Otherwise, malicious behavior will cause you to lose reputation.

After all, as a major force, how could it be possible that reputation would never change or never decrease?

If you dare to do something big, your reputation value will be directly deducted to the bottom, or even negative.

So if you want to redeem it, you will definitely have to complete tasks for Tiangong Pavilion.

On the other hand, those who can complete tasks for Tiangong Pavilion are basically those who sincerely intend to exchange.

"Yes, these are all on mission."

Tang Wen nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Now he knows that this infantry drill manual is the key among the keys.

Let’s not consider the issue of the purchased manuals being leaked and sold to outsiders.

At this point in time, those who have purchased the manual are all big forces.

These big forces are large in scale, well managed, and have close ties with Tiangong Pavilion. Some of them are completing tasks for Tiangong Pavilion, accumulating points and waiting to exchange them for new technologies.

If these people leak the technology, they will be blacklisted, their points will be scrapped, and they will face retaliation from Tiangong Pavilion.

Haoyu Group probably doesn’t have that much power, so let’s not consider it for now.

The main thing is to keep an eye on these new applications.

"Did Haoyu Group take any action?

If they did, which force would it be?"

Tang Wen turned his gaze to the catalog again.

“All those with large scale and good operating conditions are excluded.”

"The mercenary group is paying close attention."

Once the screening criteria were announced, most of the people on the list were directly eliminated.

Although many forces want to turn things around by investing all costs to exchange for the manual when they are left with no other options.

But the fact is that even if they exchanged all their property for the elemental metals that Tiangong Pavilion collected in unlimited quantities, it would still be far from enough for the exchange.

They can only spend time honestly taking on tasks and accumulate points for redemption by completing tasks for a long time.

This step directly eliminates all forces that are not performing well and are small in scale.

Those who can apply and are doing the task must be of good scale and management.

so.
Tang Wen directly targeted a small guild with only a hundred people.

Royal Guard Guild.

This is a guild composed entirely of spearmen. Judging from the information, they have not been doing well and have been on a downward spiral in whatever industry they are in.

The last career change was to prepare to hunt and capture monsters on a large scale to make money, but this industry did not go well and the guild was pushed to the brink of bankruptcy.

From this perspective, the guild's president has performed very stably.

It has been performing stably until now and has reached a stable cooperation with Haoyu Group.

It must be this guild.

“How is this guild doing with its quests?
What are the main tasks? What is the scope of the tasks?

The player in front of him didn't say anything and went straight to retrieve the mission data.

It contained a series of data including the task location, time of accepting the task, time of handing in the task, voucher for handing over the task, corresponding points flow track, material warehousing track, etc. Tang Wen opened it and took a look.

"Oh, I do all kinds of tasks, normal labor tasks, and also donation tasks that are just about collecting materials.

Where does a guild on the verge of bankruptcy get the money to buy materials and complete tasks?
So hard.

And the scope of this mission is so huge, covering all over the country.

Either they have manpower spread across these areas, or they spend money to buy people to do the tasks.

but."

"Where do you get so many people from your small guild that is on the verge of bankruptcy? Where do you get so much money to hire people?"

Tang Wen knew without much hesitation that the four big words "Haoyu Group" were written on the forehead of this Royal Guard Guild.

"It's 100 percent this guild."

Tang Wen couldn't help but laugh, and the player in front of him asked immediately after hearing this.

"Then I'll find a way to kick this guild out."

"Hey, wait, why are you kicking someone?"

Tang Wen immediately called out to the player.

"You can't kick it. You can't kick it. Not only can you not kick it, you have to take good care of it."

"Ah, then let them do the tasks? I've seen that they complete the tasks very quickly. If they maintain this speed, combined with some tasks like donating money, they might be able to collect enough points in three or four months. Their reputation may be a little slower, but not by much.

Then will you really let them buy it then?"

"Well, sell it, sell it, what's wrong with that?"

Tang Wen shrugged cheerfully.

“Why should we be afraid if others want to buy it? We can also prevent everyone from buying it.

You have to think of it this way: people who are hostile to us have to play by our rules.

Then what are we afraid of?

Besides, don’t you think it’s rude that Haoyu Group’s money is still in Haoyu Group’s hands? "

Tang Wen laughed.

“We can’t not even give them a chance to spend money, right?
Just listen to me, just treat it as normal and don't do anything.

Instead of spending this time on this, it would be better to take a look at what materials we are in greatest shortage of recently.

If there is a big gap in materials, just send a task to the Royal Guards Guild, and send more resource-based tasks.

I think Haoyu Group is also anxious, so we should at least help them.

Of course, the price can be a little higher.”

“Oh, by the way, another point is that it may not be easy for Haoyu Group to buy materials.

In this way, you can operate it, package yourself as a businessman, transfer a batch of materials from the cabinet and trade with Haoyu Group.

Before the transaction, we will issue a task for this type of material, and the task price will be a bit higher.

When trading, we sell at a higher price and settle in real currency.

After all, we also need to save some real currency, so that the operation will not lead to the loss of our extraordinary materials. In addition, if the money of Haoyu Group cannot be spent, it will remain in our hands.

How sad that is.”

Upon hearing this, the player in front of him slightly widened his eyes and revealed an admiring look.

Tang Wen smiled when he saw this.

If Haoyu Group had been sensible and stopped after buying the Cao Dian, then this would have been considered a big gamble. Although Tiangong Pavilion made a little more money, it was also a favor to him.

But if they really insist on taking crooked paths to rob Tiangong Pavilion...
Tang Wen shook his head slightly and started to deal with other things.

Tiangongge is not a bad person and often does good things.

But as for being soft-hearted, that has never happened. (End of this chapter)
