System: Congratulations to the lord who has reached 100 points in popularity, and he will be automatically promoted to a one-star lord.
...
The system prompt sounded three times in a row, and Shi Feng's level reached level 102, but the system prompt sound also made Shi Feng stunned.
"The first one to become a lord, will his popularity reach one star immediately?" Shi Feng looked at the system prompt and couldn't believe it.
For the current players, the word player lord alone is very unfamiliar, let alone the popularity of the lord. One hundred points of popularity is not worth mentioning for those major forces who are crazy about the popularity of the guild, because the guild wants to To be promoted, which one is not about tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of popularity.
However, lords are different, guild popularity is for a group, and lord popularity is for individual players.
It is not easy for players who are lords in God's Domain to recruit NPCs and form their own knights. After all, this recruitment is no different from players looking for their own direct guards. A knight has a total of five Thousands of places, to gather 5,000 knights who are not weak, the difficulty for a single player can be imagined.
The only quick and efficient way is to increase the popularity of the lord.
The higher the lord's popularity in God's Domain, the easier it will be to recruit NPCs, and the more attractive NPCs with high potential will be. It's just that it is very difficult to increase the lord's popularity. It does not mean that it can be done by doing some tasks, because only some special tasks will be able to do it. Reward the lord's popularity, and even if these tasks are completed, the popularity of the reward will only increase by a few points.
It takes a lot of time and energy to raise to 100 points of popularity.
Every 100-point increase in the popularity of the lord is a watershed. When the popularity reaches 100, it is a one-star lord. Players do not need to go to major NPC cities to find NPCs. They only need to recruit in the Adventurers Association. .
These recruited NPCs may be of mixed quality, but there are also some NPCs with good potential. If you are lucky, you can even recruit Mithril-level guards.
Of course, the level of the recruited knights will also increase according to the popularity of the lord.
Originally, Shi Feng was still thinking about how to increase the lord's popularity to 100 points in the future.
Otherwise, just recruiting members of the knights would be exhausting him, it would be impossible without a few months, but now it saves a lot of time.
"Deacon Loran, I want to recruit members of the Knights in the association." Shi Feng said while holding the lord token and looking at the beautiful elf deacon.
"Okay, but the summoning order is issued, and the charges vary according to the scope. Generally, a town charges ten gold coins a week, a city one hundred gold coins a week, a royal city a three hundred gold coins a week, an imperial city a thousand gold coins a week, I don't know that you need to issue a summons in those towns?" Deacon Lorraine explained.
"It's really not cheap." Shi Feng secretly stunned, "It's no wonder that the Adventurer's Association is known as the fourth most profitable force in God's Domain."
The lords of the previous life have no connection with the second- and third-rate guilds. They are completely taken over by the major superpowers and those powerful first-rate guilds, and there will be no slag left.
But now that he has become a lord, he did not expect that it would cost so much just to recruit the Knights.
You must know that the recruitment itself is a matter of luck. It does not mean that there will definitely be NPCs when the Adventurer Association announces the recruitment. Therefore, it takes time to recruit 5,000 potential Knights in dozens of cities. But a lot.
Generally speaking, it is only effective to recruit hundreds of cities. Just over 100 cities, that is, cities in a kingdom, will cost 10,000 or 20,000 gold a week. A small burden, if you speed up the recruitment to four or five kingdoms, it is enough to make a first-class guild vomit blood. It can be said that the lord is really not something that ordinary forces can afford.
"Then recruit in these cities."
Shi Feng thought about it, and quickly selected some prosperous cities in the major kingdoms and empires, including the king cities and imperial capitals of the major kingdoms and empires. There are more than 400 cities in total, and the cost of one time reached 44,500 gold, enough to The current first-class guilds are hurting their bones. After all, the masters of the major guilds are frantically attacking the 100th level. The guilds consume a lot of money, and they can't save much money.
That is to say, Zero Wing is easy. There are several large towns and Candlelight Business Firms who are crazy to make money from Zero Wing, and the income is not less than those of ordinary superpowers.
But because Zero Wing also supports the expenses of the headquarters and Tiandou training center, the entire guild is not so rich.
"It seems that we have to find a way to increase the guild's income. Otherwise, with the current income, it is impossible to support the Knights of 5,000 people." Shi Feng began to calculate in his heart after paying the gold coins.
The 5,000-strong guard knights are very expensive, but the cost is also very high, which is not comparable to those NPC guards recruited directly in the guild towns, only need to pay a small amount of gold coins.
The Knights are the lord's private combat power. Unlike the NPC guards in the city, which belong to the kingdom and the empire, there are no subsidies from the kingdom and the empire, and all rely on the player to pay for it. Therefore, the cost of raising a Knight of the Knights is very high. And the potential is different, the price is completely different.
Even if it is only a second-order knight at the bronze level, how can it cost fifty gold training fees and wages a week, and a thousand people on a Friday is two hundred and fifty thousand gold, and this does not include the problem of those weapons and equipment...
Thinking of this, Shi Feng couldn't help but admire those first-class guilds who owned territories in the previous life.
When Shi Feng got the lord token, he immediately left the Adventurer's Association and went directly to the Candlelight Trading Company, ready to start the manufacture of the Chilong airship.
After reaching the 100th level, the air is the foundation of development. Whoever has the air superiority is the boss. After all, the map environment and the distance after the 100th level are too far. The ability to move in the air and the ability to move in the air will only widen the gap. bigger.
For the big forces, there are more people, more resources, and more experts, and the chance of getting flying mounts is much easier than that of ordinary forces, so the gap between ordinary forces and those big forces will become larger and larger.
Even if he has a lot of experience, the flying mounts he can get are very limited. Maybe he can lead the major superpowers with experience in the early stage, but the superpowers occupy too many places. Not to mention the number of masters, it is only a matter of time before they catch up in the number of flying mounts, and it is not something he can turn around alone.
If you really want Zero Wing to last for a long time, then the airship is essential.
