SSS-Class Ranker Return

Chapter 208

People of Macta (3)

No matter how good the cohesiveness of humans, the corps effect was worthwhile, but it didn’t make sense.

However, it wasn’t that many of the humans had mastered the level. Other races also know that humans, who have endless ‘possibilities’, can sometimes become very powerful once they reach the master level.

Maybe that’s why, I didn’t even know that some people ignored humans and crushed them.

‘okay. It must be confusing.’

However, among the visitors of all races, including humans, only one person, Lokan, achieved the master level.

The result that one person made was so great that I couldn’t even put it into words.

In such a situation, he must have been worried about whether this could be regarded as only because of the visitor or because of Lokan.

‘I think the time has come for the news to come… … .’

But they still have one more shocking thing to do.

[Taming Master has occupied Orfran Castle.][Snail has taken over Holdron Fortress.]

Those who received a special mission from Lokan and joined the dwarves, gnomes, and half-elves were successful in ‘skipping the last hit’.

Thanks to this, humans acquired two additional bases, and Timing Master and Snail, who ate the last hit as planned, handed over the authority of the territory to Lokan and escaped there as if fleeing.

[Taming Master has transferred all rights to Olfran Castle to Rokan-nim.][Snail has transferred all rights to Holdron Citadel to Rokhan.]

It’s called ‘Pants Run’!

They were unwilling to bear the pressure and anger directed at them. As if tossing, he manipulated the territory window to transfer all authority and escaped from there.

Of course there were criticisms, but they were not there.

“Okay.”

Lokan was also not there, but he was able to grasp the approximate situation through the estate management window.

The dwarves, gnomes, and half-elves that filled the castle were standing there blankly, not knowing what to do. It seemed that I still did not understand what the English language was.

The moment you felt relieved after successfully attacking, you were deprived of the right to occupy, so it was worth it.

Maybe we can just get frustrated and move on. You never know what will happen in war, and just because it becomes a base for humans doesn’t mean they can’t use it.

Of course, Lokan had no intention of asking them for a fee right away.

“Tax Rate Adjustment.”

Instead, the tax rate was slightly raised. From 10% to 25%.

It was raised by a whopping 15%, but it would be difficult to know when this started. Because the raid just ended.

The peace had been too long to use the shops and check the tax rate as soon as the hostile camp occupied the city.Unless users find out through the website, it is difficult to know what the tax rate for a specific base of the opposing camp is.

“Hey there, Lokan-sama”

Then, two of those who were put into operation returned. It was the Timing Master and Snail, the two people who passed the territorial authority to Lokan.

The rest of the users must be grinding their teeth to hit the last blow in the next battle.

“You did a good job. As promised, I will give you the title and territories.”

[Taming Master has been given the title of Baron.][Snail has been given the title of Baron.]

Lokan, who greeted them with satisfaction, kept his promise. Although he was a baron, he was given the title and part of his estate was given to them.

Of course, some of the taxes collected by being automatically incorporated into his faction will have to be paid back to Lokan, but you will still be able to get a decent amount of money.

If you can do a little bit of sage or build something more, you might be able to get more land like putting pieces together and make a whole territory.

Lokan emphasized that point and sent them back. It was also said that if you can do it, try as much as you want, and additional rewards will follow.

‘After all, business is a military business.’

Lokan, who sent them back, opened the estate management window again and smiled proudly as he watched the taxes accumulating in real time.

Dwarves, gnomes, and half-elves are pouring out huge amounts of money to repair equipment, purchase consumables, and buy food.

As regular users may not know, a huge supply is required to maintain an army of NPCs, and it is impossible to procure all of them from the main base, so a significant portion of them is procured from the shops of the occupied bases.

That was also Lokan’s target.

‘You are Nodajiro.’

On the other hand, it was an unconditional benefit to those who “eaten” the territory with the last hit, as he threw a part of the most miserable territory he had.

Therefore, Lokan immediately sent a letter to the three tribes of the Golden Lion camp.

“This will be enough”

1. It appears that the human ‘visitor’ has ‘unintentionally’ gained control of the castle.

2. I was too surprised to leave and I don’t know what to do, so I donated to the country.

3. Since it is a resource belonging to the state, it is difficult to return it, but there will be no additional cost of living. Feel free to use it freely.

The words were lengthy, but the point was these three. Because I didn’t want to charge them a base fee anyway.

It was not funny to say that he was also a visitor, but no one tackled it because he had already reached the status of a marquis and had the highest level of intimacy and reputation with the other three races.

“I don’t know how long I’ll see you.”

eating.

The only message that came back was an ordinary story of wanting to know the meaning of Rokhan.

They also see this as a kind of ‘accident’ and do not take any special measures or strongly claim ownership of the base.

But can it keep the same reaction over and over again?

Rokhan wondered how long they could survive without exploding.

After seeing the two successful people receiving a definite reward this time, the others will turn their eyes and aim for the last blow.

More sophisticated, more subtle.

Lokan had no doubts that he would take over an additional base by showing off his “Korean gamer” side.

“Should I try harder this way?”

And at the same time, he did not forget his own role as his commander-in-chief.

As soon as he purposely seized it, he made sure that the trolls did not work at the stronghold he had made out of cans and abandoned, and moved his troops back to further attack other strongholds.

After sufficient rest and supply, he added bases one by one.

* * *

‘Because they have the same purpose.’

The aspect of the war pushed by the Golden Lion Legion lasted surprisingly long.

First, the dwarves and gnomes worked together as one body, creating synergy, boasting a very high win rate, and devouring the bases of orcs and goblins.

‘Half-elves, these are almost stupid.’

And the half-elf was almost like a stalker, and tenaciously aimed only at the bases of the undead.

It was in a state of confrontation with the undead stronghold in the first place, but even so, he was only tormenting them to the point of being too much.

No one knew why, but Rokhan seemed to know roughly.

Wasn’t he revenge for the lumber that could have been the world tree?

‘Humans are… … I’m surprised too.’

And finally, humans boasted the highest win rate.

Lokan took the lead and led the battle, and because the High Masters and Masters, the national power, were concentrated in only one battle, the win rate was high and the damage was low.

It was all thanks to giving up defense.

[You have set the operation method of Ikoland Castle to be commercial-oriented.]

Wasn’t he a human with significantly lower power compared to other races in the first place?

For this reason, Lokan minimized the defense forces of each base and instead opened the acquired base completely.

It was made into a place where everyone in the Golden Lion camp could come and go at will, not just a base for humans.

The operation method was also set to be commercial-oriented, so that the distribution could be sufficiently achieved.

Instead, he activated one quest.

Territory protection quest.

This is to allow users to voluntarily receive the mission of the boundary of the territory through quests.

‘It’s not just humans who feel sorry for flying here.’

As it was the area of ​​the Black Dragonflight, it had a different taste from other hunting grounds that were slowly approaching saturation, and supplies were easy to supply, so this is a place they want to protect. Moreover, the quests were also colorful and generous.

Therefore, Lokan only thought of attack.

‘Stop taking as much as you take away.’

Even if the trolls or undead’s surprise recapture battle started, he made those who received the territory protection quest take time, and Lokan led the main force and rather aimed at the enemy’s base.In fact, the base was taken back several times while doing so, but in the end, it was regained.

In the case of NPCs, even if they take the base, they don’t choose to sell the facilities after subtracting the land holdings like the Lokan.

There is not much invested, and after all, even after the trolls and undead retake it, it is not going to be supplied.

Then the tax will accrue anyway.

“Ugh, still, the backlash is less than I thought”

In such a situation, if you can forget it, the ‘last blow’ of human users was demonstrated once.

At first, it was secretly instructed, but now, among human users, rumors that were close to the correct answer were circulating without needing to disclose it.

If you take over the territory and transfer ownership, you will be given a ‘title’ and ‘territory’.

Even though they couldn’t reveal the condition of ‘Makta’, it was the only way for them to beat the Master and High Master NPCs and gain ownership of the territory anyway.

Thanks to this, there were some people who took the ownership of the base with a makta and made a deal with Lokan first.

“Once you suck the sweet water… … It’s my advantage.”

Of course, there’s nothing wrong with being a Lokan.

As this happened more frequently, the races that should have taken the original control of the base had protested, but whenever that happened, Lokan went on like a mongrel, emphasizing the “victory dimension” of the war against the Black Dragonflight.

When the number of episodes piled up and became difficult to see, he even turned to ‘post-discussion’.

After all, it might be possible to maintain this base until the war is completely over, so we will renegotiate the territory after the war is over.

“Of course, it’s not free.”

Of course, even then, you would have to pay a considerable amount to receive the base rights.

For that day, there was no reason why the current lip service could not be done.

There were already close to ten of the bases that humans had stolen.

An alarmingly fast pace.

Although his powerful abilities were the basis, Lokan was not at ease with his helpless appearance, as if there was a division within the Black Dragonflight.

The true power of the Black Dragonflight he knew was not just this.

“uh… … wait ”

Lokan, who was examining his map of the battlefield, suddenly remembered something. No, it would be more accurate to say that he found it.

The location of the base they broke through and the location of the base they ignored and passed were very ingenious.

There was a distance, and I thought I was pushing like a wedge to make a quick breakthrough, but maybe that’s what they intended?

It was also strange that no more than a master level appeared in recent battles.

“Marquis, something has happened!”

“… … ”

And then, as if waiting, a knight rushed in to deliver the news and delivered the desperate news to him.

“It is said that the strongholds in the rear are being invaded quickly. Also, the bases in a straight line… … . At this rate, we will end up in a state of siege. It’s on the verge of isolation.”

A massive counterattack of the Black Dragonflight has begun.
