Chapter 68: Savage Mine Mining Rights!
Under the disbelieving gaze of He Denlong, the City Lord NPC of Wu Shuang City, a piece of parchment was handed over.
Li Xiang took a look; it was filled with a bunch of symbols he couldn't understand at all.
"This is the contract document. Write your name on it, and you can obtain the mining rights for Savage Mine."
Li Xiang immediately wrote his game ID on it.
"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining 'Savage Mine Mining Rights'."
Besides this notification, there was nothing else.
Li Xiang looked at the City Lord in confusion. "Is... is that it?"
He Denlong looked at Li Xiang. "You're not satisfied with officially recognized mining rights?! If you want to mine now, you need to hire professional workers and bodyguards. The Monsters in Savage Mine are not easy to deal with.
You must ensure the safety of the workers. If workers hired from Wu Shuang City die in the mine, I will hold you responsible and may even revoke your mining rights..."
After that, the City Lord also mentioned many points to note about mining in the cave.
Li Xiang also understood.
This mine is not that easy to exploit.
Just the Monsters in Savage Mine require manpower to repeatedly clear them out.
If NPC bodyguards recruited from Wu Shuang City die, Wu Shuang City will come looking for trouble.
So, this manpower can only be drawn from players.
Currently, players are generally only around level ten, which is still a bit of a gap compared to the Monsters starting at level 30 in Savage Mine.
Li Xiang pondered for a moment.
"After the Guild finishes recruiting, formulate detailed mining measures and get this chunk of meat into our mouths!!"
After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Li Xiang looked at the sky, which had completely darkened, and directly left the city.
He had to get the Guild Residence sorted before tomorrow, otherwise, recruiting players without even a residence would be a joke.
Although it was dark, there were still many players fighting Monsters outside the city. Everything they talked about was related to Gods Guild and Li Xiang.
Gods Guild recruiting tomorrow would have an immense impact on the players of Wu Shuang City.
Everyone understands the principle of 'it's good to rest in the shade when leaning against a big tree'!!!
Being able to join such a Guild essentially means being able to walk sideways in the game, or at least walk sideways in Wu Shuang City, and having the confidence to brag to people in reality.
This is also the reason why players from other cities rushed to Wu Shuang City overnight via the relay station, directly creating a large amount of revenue for the relay station!
Meanwhile, local players in Wu Shuang City worked even harder to level up, hoping to get into Gods Guild's recruitment tomorrow.
While heading towards Tianhuang Mountains, Li Xiang opened his friends list.
After creating the Guild, the friends on his friends list were not idle for a moment, sending a large number of congratulations and well wishes.
In the 'Inventory' group, it was extremely lively now.
Xing Qiong Dadi: "Lord Qu Ming hasn't replied to me yet. He's probably too busy. I'll wait a bit longer."
Luan Shi Xiaoxiong: "You're not a beauty, why would Lord Qu Ming reply to you?"
Xing Qiong Dadi: "What? Did he reply to you?"
Luan Shi Xiaoxiong shut up.
After a while, Luan Shi Xiaoxiong sent another message: "@Kuangye Xiongqi, have you seen Title Giant?"
Kuangye Xiongqi: "I don't know where Lord Qu Ming is either, but I'll be able to see Lord Qu Ming tomorrow."
Luan Shi Xiaoxiong: "?"
Xing Qiong Dadi: "?"
Kuangye Xiongqi then revealed the news that Li Xiang had agreed to help his Guild clear the Bandit Plagued instance.
This caused the heads of the various forces in Wu Shuang City within the group to beat their chests and stamp their feet, regretting that they hadn't thought of it.
Luan Shi Xiaoxiong: "??? Bandit Plagued? That broken instance, you guys still haven't cleared it?"
Xing Qiong Dadi: "You guys are too weak. Can you put in some effort? You're lowering the standard of our group..."
The forces that hadn't cleared the Bandit Plagued instance immediately stopped talking, and the group instantly fell silent.
Slapped in the face...
It hurts too much...
Qu Ge Mingzi Hao Nan: "【Equipment screenshot】 【Equipment screenshot】 【Equipment screenshot】..."
A large number of equipment screenshots appeared in the group.
Xing Qiong Dadi: "Holy cow!!! Did Title Giant take down a level 35 gold-grade BOSS?! My Xingqiong Guild wants all these pieces of equipment!"
Luan Shi Xiaoxiong: "Lord Qu Ming is awesome! Even if they're not usable, just looking at these pieces of equipment in the Guild feels great! Dadi, make an offer!"
"......"
Several pieces of level 35 gold-grade equipment sold for a high price of 4 million.
At this stage, no player could wear them, but the emotional value these pieces of equipment provided far exceeded their actual value.
After chatting in the group for a while, Li Xiang opened Xing Qiong Dadi's private chat window.
Xing Qiong Dadi: "Lord Qu Ming, could you tell me how the Guild token dropped? My Xingqiong Guild is willing to offer 5 million for this information."
It wasn't just him; Luan Shi Xiaoxiong also sent a message, offering the same price of 5 million. The heads of several other Guild forces also sent messages, but their offers were lower, or they didn't make an offer at all, directly asking to get it for free.
Li Xiang thought for a moment. "Forget the money... The token was in Savage Mine in my city..."
After sending it to Xing Qiong Dadi, Li Xiang copied and pasted it, sending a copy to Luan Shi Xiaoxiong as well.
Immediately, he received two massive 'Thank You's!!!
These were two favors!
Favors from Xingqiong Guild and Luan Shi Guild.
These two Guilds were not small Guilds. Li Xiang was no longer a novice; he knew clearly that behind these two Guilds were major forces in reality!!!
Closing the friends list, Li Xiang looked ahead.
Moonlight scattered into the forest ahead. Many branches grew horizontally, and the tree shadows swayed and overlapped, creating an eerie feeling.
"Ding! You have entered 'Dark Forest'."
Li Xiang was startled.
"How did I get here..."
"Might as well take a walk around and see if I can complete the quest."
He glanced at his panel and added the 5 free attribute points he had forgotten to allocate after leveling up to Strength.
Under the cover of night, the passive skill 'star-moon Fountain' of the equipped star moon necklace was taking effect, restoring 100 mana per second, unaffected by any status.
Entering the forest, Li Xiang walked for several minutes but didn't see a single Monster, which made him feel puzzled.
"This map is so big, where do I find the quest target Altar..."
Leaning against a tree, Li Xiang prepared to rest for a while and, by the way, took out the god-tier ability roulette from his backpack.
"Another Divine-grade ability..."
"I wonder what ability it will be!!!"
Li Xiang took a deep breath and directly opened the roulette.
The roulette burst out with golden brilliance. Li Xiang extended his finger and flicked the pointer.
Immediately, the pointer began to spin.
The speed of rotation got faster and faster, and the golden light became more intense.
After lasting for more than ten seconds, the pointer slowed down.
Finally, it stopped on a square.
"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the Divine-grade ability 'Guidance of the god of Potions'."
