Chapter 520: Chapter 376: Arriving at the New Territory
The next day, Bright City’s Feis Street,
Mora busied herself back and forth, as today was the day the Transmission Array activated, the day they would head to Lis’s territory, Danerluo Port.
Under Mora’s meticulous arrangements, countless clerks and guards from the White Dove Chamber of Commerce drove carriage after carriage packed full and covered with tarpaulins, transporting goods acquired by the White Dove Chamber of Commerce, preparing to send them all through the Transmission Array to the outskirts of Danerluo Port.
Waiting outside the Kane Mansion, besides the staff of the White Dove Chamber of Commerce, there were hordes of players.
Not wanting to miss the chance to experience the Space Transmission Array, they had set their alarms and had been waiting here early in the morning.
At this moment, Lis stood beside the Space Transmission Array, looking at the dark mass of people outside with satisfaction.
...
His gaze was gentle, as if he was looking at his ever-expanding field of crops.
“Where did you find so many people, and they’re all Extraordinary Professionals?”
Uncle Joyce looked at the players outside the courtyard with some astonishment and asked Lis.
Weren’t there just too many people?
With Joyce’s keen eyes, he naturally noticed that the majority of these people were Extraordinary Professionals. Although their strength was only at the Bronze Level, it was still a very commendable force.
Such a scale, beyond the Royal Family of the Feis Kingdom and the Mercenary Association that could organize large-scale transcendent armies, Lis was somehow also able to muster so many people.
Especially at this critical moment when Lis was about to head to the Luou Peninsula, it was very useful.
Lis said with a smile,
“Uncle Joyce, don’t worry, they are all newly recruited staff, and there’s no problem.”
Lis certainly had this confidence. Following the Lord hiring mission he issued to the players yesterday, it nearly exploded on the Player Forum of the Fanor continent.
Especially since the update to version 2.0, these large-scale series of mission tasks in Duke Kane Territory are something that had never appeared in previous game plots.
Whether it was the innovative and numerous quests for play or the new modes for forming player teams, they attracted a lot of players’ attention.
Especially those players who were previously uninterested in recruitment by the White Dove Chamber of Commerce, they couldn’t resist being moved this time.
Of course, the most attractive was the reward that team contribution could be exchanged with Duke Lis Kain for a Knight title and a small piece of territory.
This has so far been the only opportunity presented to players to gain exclusive territory.
Now, not only the ordinary lone players but also the large player guilds and professional gaming clubs couldn’t help but be tempted to enter the fray.
This also led to the Duke Kane Territory related posts on the game forum remaining extremely popular, continuously occupying the top spot on the hot search list.
Even the “Divine Revelation Weekly”, the official news section with the highest number of followers on the player forum, devoted two consecutive issues to Lis Kain and the Luou Peninsula as the main topic, inviting professional players and strategy masters for game analysis and sharing related intelligence.
Lis was certainly pleased with this development and even secretly gave it a nudge, continuously releasing information about the territory through the White Dove Chamber of Commerce.
The more people paid attention, the more fertile his field of crops would be!
The actual situation was progressing just as he had hoped. More and more related posts were appearing on the player forum, many from players in the Human Kingdom near Boditch Kingdom and Feis Kingdom, bringing friends along and preparing to head to the Luou Peninsula.
As for players from even more distant regions, they could only watch the abundant mission rewards with envy and jealousy; no help for it.
They were simply too far away, and with their strength, there was no way they could make it to the Luou Peninsula in a short time.
For these players, Lis was naturally welcoming.
As for worries that too many players might obtain the Knight title from Lis and divide up his territory?
Lis expressed no concern whatsoever, even welcoming this scenario.
Firstly, to amass enough merits to exchange for a Knight title from Lis, one would have to complete an incredibly large number of Lord missions.
Moreover, for Lis as the Lord, players obtaining territory was beneficial to him.
You see, although Extraordinary Power existed in the Gaia Main World, the social production forces were underdeveloped, and the world’s continental territories far exceeded those of Lis’s past life on Blue Star.
This meant that even within the territories of the Human Kingdom, most areas controlled by the Kingdom and the Noble Lords were cities and their surrounding regions. The vast lands between cities were mostly wastelands, occupied by wild animals, Magic Beasts, and Extraordinary Races.
This was why the Kingdom and Nobles regularly organized forces to clear out these no-man’s lands of Magic Beasts and Alien Race forces.
At the same time, the King and Nobles sought to develop these uncontrolled regions by continuously enfeoffing low-level Nobles.
Lis was doing the same.
If natives of the Gaia World were assigned uninhabited territories, they would generally refuse to take charge.
But not the players!
They would be more enthusiastic about developing the territories assigned to them, fully displaying the Huaxia Nation’s gardening and hands-on abilities.
Lis’s territory, the Luou Peninsula, was simply too large, so much that Lis did not have the energy or ability to fully control it.
Instead of leaving it unattended, it was better to let the players develop it.
