In this case, whether to join the Cold Desolate Dragon City was something that the capitalists had to consider carefully.
However, the development of the Cold Desolate Dragon City was like the midday sun. It far exceeded the current game progress of the players. If they did not choose to join the other party now, they would miss the opportunity to set up the early stages.
This was because if the new guild territory wanted to build Cold Desolate Dragon City, they had to pay a huge price.
More importantly, no one had obtained the second City Creation Token yet.
This was what worried the capitalists the most.
After many discussions, they still decided to cooperate with the Cold Desolate Dragon City.
After all, this was the trend for players to develop businesses in the virtual world. If they missed this opportunity, they would fall behind other capitalists by an era.
At that time, it would be difficult to form a sizable force.
Thinking of this, the large corporations no longer hesitated. They all found Super Rich and chose to cooperate with the Cold Desolate Dragon City.
Of course, they definitely did not really want the Cold Desolate Dragon City to become stronger.
In the dark, these capitalists would definitely use many sinister methods to prepare to leave the Cold Desolate Dragon City in the future.
Regardless, Lorne did not care.
As long as their current efforts brought benefits to the Cold Desolate Dragon City, everything was enough.
It did not matter even if they left tomorrow.
After all, Cold Desolate Dragon City had benefited. Its growth would truly widen the gap between it and the players, and it would also truly grow to the point where it could compete with Iron Skull City.
As for ordinary players?
In fact, Lorne’s decision did not affect these ordinary merchants.
They had always been doing business in the Cold Desolate Dragon City, so they would not lose anything. They could not wait to rely on the Cold Desolate Dragon City. After all, they did not have enough resources and ability to build their own territory.
“The first one in the market really earns the most.”
Lorne checked the income of the Cold Desolate Dragon City. The records on the accounts exceeded his expectations, several times more than what he had guessed on the Internet.
But at this moment, he also noticed a problem. It was the profits!
Although the usable funds in the Cold Desolate Dragon City were large, the amount spent was greater. The Gnomes needed a large amount of funds to pave the way for their work. After all, there was almost none of the equipment they needed in the Cold Desolate Dragon City.
In addition, there were various materials that required immense funding. Half of the profits in the city were spent on these matters.
The other half was spent on building.
Although there were many basic resources in the warehouse of the Cold Desolate Dragon City, there were still some construction materials that needed to be bought.
The cost of these things nearly cost half of the profits of the Cold Desolate Dragon City.
It could not be helped. There were too many workers in the city.
“Although there’s no income, the construction has already begun. I reckon that in at most a month, the internal construction of the Cold Desolate Dragon City will be completed.”
Lorne was confident that as long as Cold Desolate Dragon City was completed, with its good geographical advantage, it would definitely have the strength to compete with Iron Skull City.
As for the players, because of the geographical location, Cold Desolate Dragon City was already in an advantageous position.
As for the NPCs, because of the complete collection of rare herbs, they had a considerable advantage. Now, it was up to Doge’s arrangements for the next Tyrant Award.
After the Cold Desolate Dragon City truly obtained a large number of excellent alchemists, they could make them refine a potion that belonged to the Cold Desolate Dragon City alone.
These potions would completely free Cold Desolate Dragon City from the restrictions of Iron Skull City!
Thinking of this, Lorne was in a good mood.
Then, he stopped staying up and quickly rested.
Tomorrow, he would leave the Cold Desolate Dragon City and head to the Elven Kingdom.
He had to focus.
After all, that was Aisha’s hometown.
He might even be troubled by the elves. If that was the case, the situation would be troublesome.
…
The next day, Lorne woke up very early.
Last night, the Divine Realm seemed to have undergone a short maintenance. There were some additional details, including attributes correction for the monsters, as well as some new dungeons and missions.
This was the most anticipated part of the Divine Realm.
Although it was only a game, it would automatically develop a game storyline according to the player’s progress, making it impossible for the entire game storyline to appear.
Moreover, there was a very special update in the contents of this update.
That was the intimate system that all players cared about.
Previously, there were rumors that as long as the affinity between the players and NPCs reached the level of ‘Close Friend’, they could break the rules and interact with the NPCs on a deeper level.
However, the system had revealed very little information previously. It did not explain how far this interaction could go.
This time, it was the most detailed information.
According to the information announced by the system, as long as the player could raise the affinity of the NPC to the level of ‘Close Friend’, they could interact with each other beyond the level of friendship.
There was no limit to this interaction. Other than instances of abuse, they could do almost anything they wanted.
There might even be the crystallization of love!
Yes, NPCs could have children.
However, because there were many races of NPCs, players and NPCs had to consider many problems when bearing offspring.
The heir might be a werewolf with fur or an ogre with lumps all over its body.
Therefore, the system specially reminded players that when docking with NPCs, they had to use protection. If they wanted to obtain the crystallization of love, they had to consider whether the other party’s race was compatible with the humans to create a good species.
In addition, players could also reach this level of relationship.
However, both sides had to have the affinity of ‘Close Friend’. Moreover, this matter could only be carried out with the consent of the female players. Once violated and there was a forced action, the player would not only be unable to remove his undergarment, but he would also be severely punished by the system. The most severe punishment would be eternal exile.
If one received such punishment, it meant that they would never be able to play in “Divine Realm”.
Such a result made many players wary, especially the ones with ill intentions.
At the same time, countless players were excited.
This was because they liked some NPCs in the Divine Realm too much, especially the elves.
As the most perfect species in the world, the players were even crazy about it.
Now that they saw that they could do something beyond friendship with the elves, the blood in their hearts was almost ignited. They all swore that they would have an elven girlfriend for the rest of their lives!!!
With such a dream, they rushed into the forest and began a crazy farming journey.
As for Lorne, he looked at the affinity between him and Aisha happily and went to the forging workshop.
