Chapter 55: It must be a crooked way

“Holy cow!”

“Those of you in front, aren’t you eating your words? Raiders Groups might be late, but they are never absent.”

“Hahahahaha, now there’s something good to watch.”

“Quick, quick, where are the big shots of the Black Rose Raiders Group? Let’s go watch the battle!”

“Speaking of which… the Black Rose Raiders Group has come out, what about the big shots from the other Raiders Groups? If they don’t come out, won’t their spotlight be completely overshadowed? 【Crying with laughter】”

“Yes, this is the best chance for a comeback. If they can suppress Black Rose in this round, won’t the title of Tide Town’s number one Raiders Group be decided?”

“Wow, now that you mention it, I suddenly realize this Dungeon today is a bit different.”

“The Great World has always been the focus of competition among Raiders Groups, not to mention this is a Great World where the opposing factions are hostile to each other. Opportunities like this are rare!”

“Even in some city-level areas, such large-scale Great Worlds rarely appear. For our small Tide Town to have a Great World Dungeon of this scale is extremely rare.”

“It’s a pity that the number of Raiders Groups in our town is not large, and there isn’t a dedicated person to organize a championship.”

“At times like this, we need to @ the Adventurer’s Guild.”

In the 【Biochemical Crisis】 channel, everyone felt a slight regret.

Being able to watch a professional match between Raiders Groups was undoubtedly something Adventurers greatly anticipated.

To make this happen,

Adventurers tagged one after another below.

@ Adventurer’s Guild.

@ Chang Xu Strategy Group.

@ Fenghuo Strategy Group.

@ Yunxiao Strategy Group.

@ Jiu Xuan Raiders Group.

...

A series of tags flooded the channel.

The Adventurers’ enthusiasm was incredibly high.

Some even temporarily left to post messages on the forums of other Raiders Groups.

They hoped that members of various Raiders Groups would show off their skills and form teams to head to the 【Biochemical Crisis】 Great World.

To bring everyone an interesting duel.

Some had even asserted that the first Raiders Group to successfully escape Raccoon City would become the top Raiders Group recognized by all Adventurers in Tide Town.

Under such calls, the Adventurer’s Guild had no choice but to step in and start intervening.

...

Li Yunque was in a very bad mood.

As the President of the Tide Town Adventurer’s Guild, he had been under immense pressure recently.

On one hand, the failure to be selected as an Excellent Town.

This resulted in their town being forced into the Newbie Lord’s area in this regional allocation.

Can Dungeons made by these newbies be fun?

Certainly not!

Although the system has a mechanism for refreshing random Dungeons, however… refreshing Dungeons every day is very tiring, and if they only rely on refreshing Dungeons from other servers to survive, the entire town’s living standard would be suppressed below the subsistence level.

If their local town doesn’t have an excellent local Dungeon, it won’t be long before the entire town falls into poverty.

And who would ultimately be blamed for this?

Of course, it would be him, the President of the Adventurer’s Guild.

The Mayor of Tide Town and other administrators are responsible for matters of this world, such as the allocation of farmland in the countryside, relief methods for impoverished households, Elderly care issues and so on…

And all matters related to the Adventurer profession are his responsibility as the President of the Adventurer’s Guild.

The failure to be selected as an Excellent Town would only be blamed on him.

It was precisely because of this that developing the town’s Dungeon economy became an urgent priority.

In the days since transitioning from an Excellent Town to a “back to basics” town, Li Yunque had been pondering ways to break the deadlock.

For example, by supporting local Dungeons as much as possible.

Giving local Dungeons a certain amount of traffic guidance, accelerating their development, and so on…

However, when searching, Li Yunque would certainly look for those who had a certain reputation for IP acting, and Dungeon Lords with a certain background.

After all, Dungeon Lords like these have popular IPs in their hands and family support behind them, so supporting them would definitely be much easier than those new players with no background.

This is also why… Zhao Hailiang’s Punishment of the God of Destruction was already known to many Adventurers when he first entered this area.

Behind this,

Li Yunque had actually been pushing it.

After all, the Adventurer Forum is managed by the Adventurer’s Guild. As long as Li Yunque makes a proposal, the names of the designated support targets will appear on the homepage of the Adventurer Forum.

Of course, he is not a dictator; various decisions are certainly discussed internally.

But no matter what, he is the one who makes the final decision, and he is also the one responsible.

In this position, in order to retire peacefully, Li Yunque could only look for Dungeons that already had a reputation to support them, as this would make it easier to increase his own performance.

It’s just a pity that in the past two days, the recommendation effect of Punishment of the God of Destruction has been very poor. Despite giving him a very high exposure, the daily queue numbers have actually decreased.

Why is this?

Li Yunque couldn’t understand. He had been so focused on finding Dungeon Lords with acting IP that he hadn’t noticed a new Lord’s territory called Great Xia Nevernight City had appeared in Tide Town.

Until today…

“This brat, she’s really getting harder and harder to control lately.”

Li Yunque grumbled, “Not only did she solo the Punishment of the God of Destruction, which I personally supported, a few days ago, but she’s also been running off to that unknown territory to mess around these past few days. It’s really infuriating.”

“That’s clearly a Newbie Lord with no background. No matter how good his Dungeon is, can it compare to those established Dungeons?”

“A Newbie Dungeon with no reputation at all, and she’s still messing around there every day, bringing people to him.”

Li Yunque still thought that the current scale of Great Xia Nevernight City was entirely due to Li Ruoshu bringing in popularity.

After all, he heard the name Great Xia Nevernight City when Li Ruoshu performed an extreme maneuver in a certain Dungeon and then released it across the entire network.

But unfortunately… Li Yunque didn’t specifically look for that video.

Therefore, he stubbornly believed that this was entirely Li Ruoshu using the name of Black Rose to bring popularity to someone else.

“Children grow up, and you can’t control them anymore…”

“Especially that good-for-nothing brat, he actually encouraged his sister to become a Contract Adventurer for that Lord’s territory????”

“Doesn’t he know what a Contract Adventurer represents? That’s the most important turning point in an Adventurer’s life, even more important than marriage and having children.”

“It’s bad enough that he’s good-for-nothing himself, but he’s even trying to bewitch his sister?”

The more Li Yunque thought about it, the angrier he got, feeling as if a beautiful cabbage he had raised for many years was about to be trampled by a pig.

Upon hearing that these two unfilial children had gone to check on that Great Xia Nevernight City again early this morning, Li Yunque immediately bristled with anger.

He decided to go and see what kind of magic the Lord of this territory possessed to attract his beloved daughter in such a way.
