Chapter 67: Those who obey me will prosper and those who go against me will perish!

It’s Shen Zhui again! This is the second city gate mission! "In Yangzhai City, Xia Feng's face was ugly, and his bones and knuckles turned white.

"Zhenbei Pass is twice as big as Pingyang Pass and has a larger population than Pingyang Pass. The difficulty of the same task has also reached level 17. I didn't expect that he would complete it so quickly."

"Brother Xia, the situation is not good." Meng Cheng frowned on the side. "Zhenbeiguan and Pingyangguan are the bridgehead for expanding his power to the three surrounding cities of Shangqiu City. Once he completes the integration of the forces in Shangqiu City, he will inevitably promote his minions to the three surrounding cities in the next time. A palace city.”

"Shangqiu City is the first royal city and has the largest number of adventurers. Now, Shen Zhui is far ahead of us. If we don't curb his development, I am afraid that as we get further behind, we will become more and more competitive with him. "

"Stop it, how to stop it?" Luo Shubai on the side said bitterly. "Now he has the largest number of adventurers and controls the largest number of Zhenwen people. All adventurers who enter Shangqiu City must succumb to his power even if they are unwilling."

"God damn Shen Zhui! He replaced all the twelve gate guards in Shangqiu City with his own people. Now it's extremely difficult for us to even find out the information. The people sent there can't reach high positions at all. You know It’s all trivial things!”

Xia Feng's face was gloomy, indeed, this hand was too cruel.

At first, Shen Zhui was very gentle when recruiting adventurers, but later on, he gradually became more and more tough.

The position of city defense is something that must be handled by a young master. Shen Zhui, a great master, could be so ruthless, but they simply couldn't do it.

Why? Because there are not enough official titles! Xia Feng, who now has the highest official rank, is the thirteenth-level Grand Master.

The higher the official title, the more people you recruit, the stronger the control power, the easier it is to complete the task, the more generous the reward, and then the higher the official title... This is like a snowball!

But originally, Prince Liang’s Mansion was the largest among the many snowball forces in this secret realm! Now, he can't even be called third, because there are two fourteenth-level Zuo Dafu in Yangzhai City, competing with him for the city gate outside Yangzhai City.

"Then we can't just watch him continue to grow bigger." Xia Feng gritted his teeth. "Third uncle has gone to Luncheng to contact the people in Shuiling Palace and Tiance Mansion. Meng Cheng, you go to Zhenlu City and contact the four masters of the Academy Alliance one by one."

"We must persuade them to unite against the thief Shen Zhui."

"Brother Xia, as far as I know, Shen Zhui also sent people to Zhenxun City to lobby."

"Then destroy his plan! At the very least, don't let the people in the academy fall to Shen Zhui!"

"When you go, tell them that Shen Zhui's master is Lu Yuanwei." Xia Feng said coldly.

"Lu Yuanwei?" Meng Cheng was slightly stunned, wondering why Xia Feng suddenly mentioned an unfamiliar name.

"You don't need to worry about it. This is a past event. People in this generation don't know much about it."

"Yes." Meng Cheng nodded quickly and left the hall.

"Shu Bai." Xia Feng said coldly again. "When my third uncle comes back, you go to Pingyang Pass with him."

"Going to Pingyang Pass?" Luo Shubai was also stunned.

"Yes, you invited Shen Zhui to meet him out of the city and pretended to join him."

"He is so proud now that he might be fooled. When the time comes, you can take the best magic weapon I gave you and join forces with my third uncle to kill him."

"If it can be done, then this disaster will naturally disappear, and all problems will be solved. Without Shen Zhui, everyone will be back at the same starting point."

"It doesn't matter if it doesn't work out. Anyway... we can't let him develop so comfortably."

"yes."

…………

Luncheng.

A fifteenth-level young master builds a mansion.

There was a man in white clothes who was reading an ancient book in the young man's mansion. The man was very handsome, and the light in his eyes was as bright as time and space, exuding a frightening aura.

"It's interesting that so many people are actually one step ahead by Shen Zhui, a former soldier of the border army."

"Shenwei General Shen Zhui? No wonder..."

Just as the young man in white was muttering to himself, suddenly, a soldier hurried out of the door.

"I would like to report to you, Master Hai. I would like to see you."

"Oh?" The young man in white was slightly surprised. "Invite him in."

"Yes." The soldier quickly ran out again.

After a while, a strong man covered in armor walked into the main hall.

"Hai Qing, why did you come to my place if you didn't go to Wan Yao Ze?" the young man in white asked with a smile.

"I can't sit still anymore." Hai Qing grunted, seeming to be very familiar with the young man in white, and sat down on the chair.

"Long Qie, you heard it just now, right?"

"What did you hear?" Long Qie chuckled.

"Stop pretending!" Hai Qing said urgently. "This Shen has leveled Zhenbeiguan, and soon he will level the southern city and complete the third main city mission."

"When he is promoted to the rank of concubine, he will be only one step away from becoming the concubine in charge of national defense and military affairs."

"According to the nature of this ghostly secret realm, once someone reaches the seventeenth level of the concubine, I am sure that the concubine Qin Shan will either retire and return to his hometown, or die suddenly for no reason, so as to make way for the adventurer."

"He has become the chief concubine, so other adventurers can only stare at him!"

"Even if he lies still after that, he will definitely get the top five rewards in the final calculation of the military merits of Liangjie Mountain."

"What's the rush?" Long Qie said slowly and calmly. "The battle between the two realms is just speculation, and the reward based on military merit and title is just a theory. No one knows whether it is true. Daxia Academy has not announced it yet."

"Can I not be in a hurry?" Hai Qing muttered. "My ancestor spent a lot of money to deduce this information. He gave the order to die. If I can't get the top five rewards, then I will be miserable."

"This Shen Zhui will definitely expand to Shenyun City next. I don't want to be his little brother. If I go back to Kyoto, I will be laughed to death."

"Then you want to be my little brother?" Long Qie said with a faint smile.

"I..." Hai Qing was speechless for a moment and said angrily: "We two brothers, there is no need to talk about younger brother and younger brother... Cooperate, cooperate!"

Long Qie smiled and said nothing.

"If you don't care about me, then I will go find the Ji and Wei families." Hai Qing said.

"Try it!" Long Qie glanced at him. "Your father will blow out your third leg and won't allow you to recover."

Seeing that Hai Qing was silent, Long Qie said calmly: "Go back and mobilize your five hundred forbidden troops. Tomorrow, all your subordinates will be mobilized hundreds of miles away from the east city of Zhenxun."

"Haha, as ordered!" Hai Qing immediately laughed and left.

…………

Zhenbeiguan, Guanfu.

"Sir, my subordinates have just finished counting. A total of 5,326 adventurers participated in the Zhenbeiguan mission."

"There are 3,200 people who have been promoted to official ranks, and 30% of them have skipped two levels. There are only 23 people who have jumped to the third level of official ranks. They were all appointed by adults, and there were no accidents."

"One hundred and twenty-nine people were injured and fifty-seven died."

"According to the contract, their relics and things will be kept by the adults and returned to the person they designate after leaving the secret realm."

After listening to Bi Ying's report, Shen Zhui nodded.

The seventeenth-level city mission is not particularly difficult, as evidenced by the hundreds of adventurer casualties.

But on this point, no one has anything to say. Where can you go on an adventure without dying? When I first decided to enter the secret realm, I was mentally prepared for this.

What Shen Zhui could do was promise those who signed the contract to help return their bodies to their hometowns.

"In other words, 40% of people have accidents while performing tasks?"

"There's nothing we can do about it, sir." Bi Ying sighed. "It is impossible for Daxia Academy to allow you to truly control the overall situation. You cannot completely avoid accidents or tests during missions."

Shen Zhui nodded.

More than 5,000 adventurers participated in the seventeenth-level Zhenbeiguan mission. However, only over 3,000 people benefited from this high-level mission and were promoted to official ranks.

He restructured the army system with adventurers as supplements and Zhenwen humans as the main ones.

They have deployed their own people at key nodes in order to eliminate "accidents" that occur during the mission.

There are ten scholar-officials who are adventurers in an army of 1,000 people, and there are 50 adventurers in an army of 1,000 people. The results after performing the mission are completely different.

Shen Zhui wanted to raise his status to exceed the number of high-ranking officials in the Zhenwen clan. The only shortcut was to share the Zhenbeiguan mission.

When he commands hundreds of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions of legions in the future, the middle and high-level decision-makers below him will all be rigid and uncertain Zhenwen people.

However, accidents still inevitably occur, for various reasons. Some are due to a sudden increase in the number of targets while exterminating monsters. Some are caused by the monster leader's strength greatly increasing, leading to a rout. There are also some that appear to have no accidents, but still appear. He accidentally fell to his death!

The fundamental reason is that the test that adventurers face when performing tasks cannot be completely eliminated by external forces. This is a consistent rule throughout the secret realm.

"But it's still effective." Shen Zhui said. "At least 40% should be far from the bottom line."

"My lord is wise." Bi Ying said with a smile.

"It is not advisable to use all adventurers or all Zhenwen humans to complete the meritorious mission."

"As long as we keep trying and adjust the proportion of power that adventurers hold during combat, it won't take long before we can find the most advantageous method."

"Leaving aside the mission for now, have the people sent to the other three royal cities and twelve palace cities come back?" Shen Zhui changed the subject.

"A dozen people came back one after another, but..." Bi Ying hesitated.

"If you have anything to say, just say it. I can't demote you now, so what are you afraid of?" Shen Zhui made a joke. Now that Biying is a mid-ranking member of the thirteenth level, he really has the right to kill his official title. This is the protection given by Daxia Academy to every adventurer.

"The effect is very small." Biying shook his head. "All the people who could be recruited in the early stage have been recruited, and the rest are just words of cooperation and alliance."

"Even, some people even scolded adults for being whimsical..."

"Haha, this is normal." Shen Zhui laughed. "They all came in with money, and unlike Shangqiu City, they are not within the scope of Daliang Zaoguanjue's intimidation."

"How can they easily surrender before my butcher's knife reaches their heads?"

"I'm afraid there are still many people who treat this place as an adventure game and dismiss it. But they have forgotten that the chip in the game is their own life."

"There is no need to rush in lobbying for union, but we cannot relax either. Adventurers will pour in in large numbers in the coming period."

"Now that the second level has been open for more than half a year, the early stage is already in the past. A large number of elites have already established a firm foothold in the four royal cities and the twelve palace cities."

"But we were lucky enough to get ahead of everyone."

"However, we still have a long way to go to maintain this advantage until the end."

“The foundation has been laid in the early stage, and then comes the battle for territory in the mid-term.”

"Before the final battle, whoever has the stronger strength, the greater the number of people, and the larger the territory will have the last laugh."

"Bi Ying, go tell Lucio, the right officer, and ask him to raise the threshold for recruiting adventurers."

"Any adventurer who comes in after a year must have a certain skill to gain convenience and opportunities from me."

"Next, I will acquire all three cities around Shangqiu City, and strive to take over Zhenlu City in a year and a half."

"After one and a half years, I will no longer accept low-level adventurers. Because if I focus on the Zhenwen people, the rewards will be even greater!"

“It doesn’t matter if those people don’t cooperate now, just coax them first.

After a year and a half, if there are still those who are dissatisfied, I will let them know what it means to follow me and prosper, and those who go against me will perish! "

Bi Ying's heart trembled, and she straightened up subconsciously.

Unconsciously, he discovered that the young man in front of him already had the power to decide the life and death of the other adventurers.

If there are still people who regard Shen Zhui's official title and secret realm as a joke, then they really don't know what to say.

…………

After telling his subordinates about his strategy, Shen Zhui returned to the study.

Now that the second level has been opened, Shen Zhui has decided to slowly shift his focus to the Zhenwen human race and the Zhenwen demon clan.

Compared to the billions of true literary humans and tens of billions of true literary demons, one hundred thousand adventurers are just a drop in the ocean.

The final situation must be that a small number of adventurers lead the Zhenwen people to fight against the Zhenwen monsters.

Now that he has attracted nearly 10,000 adventurers in Shangqiu City, his main purpose now is no longer to continue blind expansion.

But if you take advantage of the fact that adventurers can quickly upgrade, you can promote trustworthy people to various important positions.

With adventurers as tentacles, a large network is formed in the four royal cities and the twelve palace cities, and he is the center of this large network.

"Shui Ling Palace, Tiance Mansion, Prince Liang's Mansion, Academy Alliance, foreign forces..." Shen Zhui's mind was filled with the collected information one by one, and he was sorting through it slowly.

"After completing the Zhenbeiguan mission, my rank has not been improved, but I only need to conquer the third level, and I will not be far from becoming the seventeenth-level chariot commander."

"From Shao Shang to Daliang Zao, we have to complete city missions. No one can keep up with me yet. After I finish the third level, I should develop my power in the direction of Zhenxun City." Shen Zhui thought to himself. .

After completing the missions of Pingyang Pass and Zhenbei Pass, Shen Zhui appeared in the third city mission, which was the 'Nanshang Pass' mission.

After completing this task, he can be promoted to the commander of the Si Chai, and he can legitimately take charge of the three cities around Shangqiu City. At that time, the adventurers in the palace could only hear his orders, and then they could use the three major palaces as springboards to control the second royal city.

For adventurers, this kind of 'control' right is equivalent to Shen Zhui putting a knife above their heads, which can be dropped at any time.

…………

On the 197th day after the secret realm was opened, Xia Feng's clan uncles Xia Yang and Luo Shubai designed to lure Shen Zhui out of the city, but to no avail.

On the 200th day, the great concubine Qin Shan announced to the world that an accident occurred in the Two Realm Mountains, the barrier blocking the demon world, and would be completely shattered in two years. The military and civilians of Daxia entered a state of war readiness. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoｓhuyuａ． com

At the same time, due to the vibration of the boundary wall, the cities outside the Twelve Palaces and the Four Royal Cities are threatened, and random boundary passages will appear. Anyone who can pacify a place and connect the country with the country as a city can be built for Daliang!

At this point, the main city missions are completely open, and all officials and nobles above level 12 can take them. As long as you have the ability, you can reach the sky in one step!

Rumors of rewards for meritorious deeds spread in the dust, and all adventurers began to leave the city one after another and entered into fierce competition! Massive casualties began to appear.

Another month passed. Shen Zhui issued corvee orders and tax orders in the two major pass cities, trained Zhenwen soldiers, and integrated adventurers. Finally, on the 221st day, he began to mobilize the army to Nanshan Pass and start the third battle. Main city mission.

From this day on, the voice of the third rule finally sounded in this secret realm.

"Young Master Zao Longqie and Hai Qing have completed the task of pacifying the 'Luyang Pass' and have been promoted to level 16 Daliang Zao!"
