The benefits of the city and castellan system were obvious.
If it could be implemented smoothly, Eve could not only relieve the pressure on the City of Heaven's Chosen that was becoming more bloated, but she could also radiate the power of the Players and form a firmer control over their own region of faith.
At the same time, combining the city with the Players and making the Players the "master" of the city could also legitimately make the Players the coolies to maintain the operation of the city, further enhancing their cohesion.
In fact, even if Eve did not push for this matter, as the number of Players gradually increased, there would probably be people who would have such thoughts.
After all … who would not want to have a city of their own?
And now, Eve only intended to make it official and completely under her control.
In the previous life, she was a person who would do what she said.
After deciding to build a new city, Eve quickly immersed her consciousness into the game system and began to plan.
The city and castellan system was a system that Eve had already imagined when the Players finished building the City of Heaven's Chosen, and she had already built the general framework in her heart.
Now, what she had to do was to further perfect it and officially open it to the Players.
"A new city is not only to evacuate the population, but also to bear the function of a stronghold and a fortress. At the same time, it has to ensure that the construction can only operate normally, so … the city construction system should still be the core of the more cohesive Guilds."
"Now that the major Player Guilds have mature management systems, it is very suitable to directly connect with the city construction system."
"Moreover, maintaining the operation of a city requires a huge investment of manpower. Even if it is a small sparrow, it should have all the essentials, such as shrines, city walls, divine defense systems, teleportation portals, living quarters, mission areas, and so on … Therefore, to prevent the new city from being a lousy project, the corresponding opening conditions must be raised."
"The number of people must be strictly controlled. Considering the average number of Players online and their daily active time, combined with the current total number of Players in the entire World of Segers, and to prevent the new city from becoming a virtual 'village' or 'ghost city' … the base number of people who apply to build a city can be raised …"
"Considering all the data, 30,000 players is a good choice. With this number, even if the ratio of Lifestyle players is low, it will be enough to maintain the city's construction and operation. The city will also have a decent population capacity. Not only can it be used as a guild territory, but it also has the potential to become a residence for independent players and even Elves."
"Yes, we'll use 30000 people as the base. Only a group that has reached a scale of 30000 people can spend a huge amount of contribution points to exchange for the City Construction System and have the right to build a new city!"
"However, considering that there are only a few large guilds with 30000 members, we can change the model — guild alliance."
"Allow player guilds to form guild alliances, and the city construction function is linked to guild alliances."
"The minimum requirement for a Guild Alliance is to be a Guild. If that's the case … if a large Guild wants to monopolize a city, they can also form an Alliance and build their own city."
"As for small and medium-sized guilds that do not have enough players, they can also work together to increase their player count to the application standard and apply together …"
"Of course, the city that is jointly applied for will belong to all the guilds that applied for it."
"A Guild can only own one city at a time, at least for now. This also includes small and medium-sized guilds that jointly own a city."
"The new city will be named by the players themselves. After it is established, it will automatically appear on the official map. At the same time, the specific information of the city can be found in the game system."
"There are requirements for the location of the city. I can hint and guide this through the system. The suitable location for building a city will be marked green. Only suitable locations will be allowed to build a city. Moreover, the distance between the two cities cannot be too close."
"Also, in addition to the number of players and contribution points, there are also requirements for reputation …"
"In addition, perfect the City Lord System. If there is no specific designation, the City Lord will be the leader of the Guild Alliance. The leader of the Guild Alliance will be elected by the players themselves. Of course, the players can also choose the City Lord based on their actual needs."
"After the city is built, the City Lord will be the core of the city management system, the assessment system, and so on …"
Soon, with Eve's ideas and design, a perfect city construction function gradually took shape.
After designing the relevant functions, Eve decisively connected it to the game network.
All that was left was to activate it.
"Release a new update announcement, but … now that I'm a mid-level Divine Power, my control of the belief network and the game system has greatly improved. In the future updates, I don't need to let the players go offline."
"The official update time … Let's set it one day after Bluestar. It's not particularly urgent. It's just right to stir up the hype and give the guilds some time to prepare."
Thinking of this, Eve connected to the official website and released the new update announcement. At the same time, in the form of floating text, she also sent a brief message in the game …
…
The City of Heaven's Chosen, the base of the Nature's Heart Guild.
Li Mu was leisurely lying on a wooden chair, humming a little tune with a satisfied look on his face.
It had been almost half a month since the end of the Death Desert War.
Although he did not kill the enemy on the frontline, just the experience points brought by commanding the army allowed his level to soar. A week ago, he officially leveled up to level 50, reaching the current limit of the players in "Elven Nation".
Of course, he was not the only player who reached the maximum level of the lower Silver level in the Death Desert War.
In the first batch of Silver players, there were almost a hundred of them who had reached the maximum level.
And with the release of the Silver slots one after another, the number of Silver players in the entire server was no longer the same as before. There were close to a thousand players on the leaderboard.
Gradually, the strength of the players had expanded to a rather powerful level.
However, the players were not the only ones whose strength had increased.
Li Mu noticed that after the World Tree had further recovered, the magic of the entire world had correspondingly increased again.
In this process, all the magical beasts in the entire Elven Forest had leveled up again. Even the monsters in the underground world seemed to have become more powerful.
And among the elves of Fei Lengcui, professionals with Silver strength appeared one after another. Those who were already Silver professionals, such as Alice and Ayr, had also increased their strength and reached the upper Silver level.
"It feels a little like when I was reading the novels about the revival of spiritual energy."
Thinking of this, Li Mu complained to himself.
After that, he changed his posture and continued to lean on the chair. While shaking his head and listening to music, he looked at the sky in a "daze".
Of course, that was not really a daze.
Instead, he was doing his homework.
That was the advantage of the university. Many of the homework assignments were submitted electronically online.
With accelerated thinking, "Elven Kingdom" was simply the best place to do homework.
Li Mu leisurely pieced together the course report through the theses he read on the web. After that, he closed the webpage and stretched his body.
It was already evening in the Segers World.
It was time for dinner.
Now that the City of Chosen was no longer the same as before, all kinds of delicious food were already a kind of enjoyment in itself.
And the body in the game also needed to eat.
Rubbing his slightly hungry stomach, Li Mu planned to call a few friends to go to the tavern for a meal and a few drinks while they were at it.
But at this moment, he suddenly saw a new system message floating above his vision.
"Update reminder:" Elven Kingdom "will be updated at 10: 00 (Bluestar time) the next day. New system functions will be released. Dear players, please be informed."
New system functions?
Li Mu raised his eyebrows.
He didn't know if it was because the game had become more and more complete after the open beta, but the update frequency of "Elven Kingdom" had been getting slower and slower.
The most recent update was just the opening of new player slots.
Now that he saw that there was a new function, Li Mu was a little curious.
However, after seeing the continuous server update, the curiosity in his heart dissipated a lot.
As everyone knew, when the server was constantly updated, the updated functions were definitely small and unimportant.
In other words, it was similar to a patch.
"Elven Kingdom" used to do the same.
But even with this idea, Li Mu still habitually connected to the internet and logged on to the official website.
Every time there was an update, specific information could be found on the official website.
As soon as Li Mu entered the official website, he saw the eye-catching title of the update log …
"What? City construction system? "
For a moment, Li Mu was a little confused.
"Are they going to refine the functions of the City of Chosen?"
He curiously muttered.
As a MMORPG, "Elven Kingdom" was already refined and free in too many ways.
In this regard, Li Mu was already very satisfied.
At this time, he really didn't think too much.
Until he clicked on the update log …
"Hiss … Building a new city? Players can finally build their own city? "
Seeing the detailed information in the log, Li Mu was slightly taken aback, and then he looked surprised.
Surprise.
It was really too surprising!
He thought it might be just an update patch, but he didn't expect it to be a bomb!
Big news, big news!
Li Mu was instantly energized:
"This … Could it be that players can build their own territory? MMORPG has become a territory management?! "
He looked excited and began to carefully browse the log …
"Opening the guild alliance system. The guild alliance can choose a suitable location on the map to build a new city. The new city will become a secondary main city …"
"Hiss … It's really building a city! And it's a city that belongs to the players! "
Li Mu's eyes lit up.
Having a territory and having a city of their own, this … was probably what many people yearned for?
Although when the City of Heaven's Chosen was just built, some players guessed that it was likely to be opened in the future, but when this really happened, Li Mu still felt extremely excited.
Although the City of Heaven's Chosen was good, it was still public.
How could there be a place for one's own!
Moreover, with the increase in the number of guild members, their current station was indeed not enough.
However, what attracted Li Mu the most, in addition to the conditions and content of the city's construction, was the explanation of the city management system.
That was the City Lord System …
"Establish a city management system with the City Lord as the core, which is a sense of officials, including the City Lord, Deputy City Lord, Temple Priest, City Guard Captain, and so on …"
"The City Lord and Deputy City Lord have a certain number of private management quotas, allowing them to customize the city's officials, such as setting up finance ministers, affairs officers, and so on."
"Different positions have corresponding authority and functions, and they can even issue certain tasks to other players like NPCs!"
"In addition to players, NPCs can also be invited to become city managers …"
"This is good! Civil servants in the alternate world version? "
"Eh? There's even a salary! "
"All city positions will be regularly assessed by the system according to the city's development and operation. Players who pass will receive additional contribution points as a reward every week. The better the city's development, the more the reward. The higher the title, the more the reward. The better the assessment results, the more the reward …"
"Wait, this reward limit is not bad."
"Of course, if you don't pass the assessment, there will be no reward …"
"The assessment results are related to the manager's activity level and the city's state."
"Oh, this is understandable."
"Eh? Guild alliances and city managers also have exclusive titles that can be hung below the ID. Among them, the Guild Alliance Leader and City Lord are gold in color, which is a gold legendary title. Deputy City Lord, Temple Priest, City Guard Captain are purple epic titles, and custom officials are blue rare … "
"Gold legendary titles! This … There aren't many in the entire server, right? The Guild Leader and Army Commander are only purple epic titles … "
The more Li Mu read, the more excited and happy he became.
As the Guild Leader of the largest guild in Elven Nation, the number of players under him was close to 50,000. All kinds of lifestyle players were flourishing, and their businesses were even opened in the underground world and the human world.
Under such circumstances, Li Mu felt that his guild still had the ability to build a main city.
He could almost see the golden title of City Lord on top of his head!
Even if he was not the City Lord, he would still be the Guild Leader.
If there was something that made him feel a little pressured …
It was probably … the condition for applying to build a city.
"The condition of having 30,000 people? Not bad, Nature's Heart is close to 50,000 people. It's more than enough to build a city! The guild's reputation rating is also enough. "
"Tsk … It's just that the required contribution points are a little too high. Establishing a Guild Alliance requires 10,000,000 contribution points, and obtaining the qualifications to build a city requires 50,000,000 contribution points …"
"Although contribution points are becoming less and less valuable, it still hurts. The guild doesn't seem to have so many contribution points saved … Looks like it's time to crowdsource."
"And … after obtaining the qualifications, building a city will consume a lot of resources …"
"The road ahead is long and arduous, ah! But … I'm looking forward to it! "
