The Syndicate's Master had certainly given face by personally paying a visit at the first instance. Not only did he let his subordinates repair the damaged teleportation circle for free, but he also announced the map of the vast surrounding area. Of course, it included the route to the surface that Eternal Star yearned for day and night. But that was not the point!
The point was that the few mines around Magic Bone City were all occupied and taken over by the Syndicate's Master. He even required Jun Xiang to sign a subordinate town agreement and hand over 50% of his income as protection fee every month.
At that moment, the big shots were silent again. This once again proved the unwritten system rule: the Old World's mineral resources belonged to the NPC nations, and players could easily cause a mine disaster if they occupied it.
Finally, Zhou Qing, who came back to his senses, did not know whether to laugh or cry. "The situation is stronger than the person. Even if he became a Master, he's still destined to work for the NPC forces."
Eternal Star sighed. "It's fine, just get used to it. Since we're going to rebel, we'll talk about it after I take over the team. "
Therefore, Xiao Fang could only agree to a series of unequal treaties and happily became a subordinate city of Syndicate City. With that, the problem of safety was solved, and all that was left was to work hard and prepare for the rebellion.
After the guild mission came to an end, Xiao Fang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she switched her attention to her main account, Momentary Beauty.
Ever since Xiao Fang confirmed Dafei's identity, she used William Duke's connections to board an NPC merchant fleet of the National Geographic Exploration Guild, half-hiring and half-funding her. She transported a large number of her assets, resources, and troops in the Lionheart Empire to the barren frontier by sea, ready to respond to the Centaur King Dafei's nation-building plan and open up new territories and markets.
At that moment, the fleet had been dawdling at sea for several days in real time, but it was still a vast expanse of water, and the barren frontier was nowhere in sight. Xiao Fang began to regret it. If she had known that Brother Fei's "space warship" had the capacity to rob a city, she wouldn't have gone through so much trouble here. What was even more depressing was that if she had known earlier that Brother Fei would become her boyfriend … Alright, this matter wasn't depressing. It was just that she had taken a detour in the past!
And it was precisely this kind of detour that made people feel extremely uncomfortable. It was as if she had worked hard to buy the clothes she liked and was preparing to enrich her life, but her rich and handsome boyfriend easily threw ten pieces of clothes at her! It was as if he had exhausted his wits and spent several days and nights to finally clear the game, but his classmate had easily cleared it with a cheat code!
It's all very boring, alright?!
The most important thing in life was to be happy. Xiao Fang was not short of money. There was no difference between 100 million yuan and 10 million yuan. Xiao Fang pursued happiness and self-fulfillment. She did not need to become her boyfriend's appendage. She wanted to achieve what her boyfriend could not.
Meanwhile, in front of Brother Fei's advanced technology, his own trip to the Great Desolate Border was meaningless. Brother Fei could cross half the world at any time and quickly build a city in any region of the Great Desolate Border. So, Xiao Fang decided to change her plan.
So, Xiao Fang went to the captain's room and asked the NPC commander of the fleet, "Captain, I don't want to go to the Great Desolate Border anymore. It's not worth much. Are there more magical and valuable places nearby that I can explore?"
The so-called National Geographic Exploration Guild was an exploration organization. Every once in a while, they would send a fleet out to explore. If an ordinary player was lucky enough to find such a relatively secretive organization, the most they could do was take a public bus and travel on the ship. However, Xiao Fang was not only a great entrepreneur of the Empire, but also a person recommended by William and Duke. Moreover, she was an important sponsor and escort for this expedition. Basically, she was half a boss. As long as it was not too far from the original goal of the fleet, the fleet commander would take Xiao Fang's suggestions seriously.
As expected, the NPC was quite surprised by Xiao Fang's suggestion. He said, "Warrior, are you serious?"
Xiao Fang nodded. "Yes, I'm very serious. Now that the world has entered the era of airships, every day we waste at sea means that we are left behind by the times. I can't wait. I want to find the truly valuable, no, the most valuable, unsurpassable legend. Captain, do you have such a legend? "
The commander frowned and took a deep puff of his cigarette. He then flipped through the nautical diary and said in a deep voice, "There are too many legends circulating among the taverns and sailors. The legend of the Ghost Ship, the legend of the Siren's Song, the legend of the Giant Octopus Kerrigan, the legend of the Eye of the Storm, and the most incredible legend of all, the legend of the Moving Island. Each legend was exaggerated by the drunk sailors to the point where it was difficult to tell the truth from the lies. What kind of legend would Warrior be interested in?"
Xiao Fang's eyebrows twitched. "What is the most incredible legend of the Moving Island?"
The commander smiled and said, "Of course, it's a moving island. There was once a navigator who discovered such an island and recorded it in the sea map. After a period of time, when they passed by that place, the island did not exist anymore. For hundreds of years, such an island was repeatedly rumored by navigators. The most incredible speculation was that the island was actually the back of a giant tortoise. It was the giant tortoise that carried the island everywhere. Legend has it that there were magical plants on the island. Warrior, do you believe it? "
Xiao Fang's eyes widened in shock! Of course, she believed it. Any information that appeared in the game was true! An island with magical plants on the giant tortoise, what was that? There was a thick aura of China's Classic of Mountains and Seas: There was a celestial mountain overseas, Penglai Fangzhang Yingzhou, carried on the giant tortoise, hidden in the mist!
At this moment, Xiao Fang suddenly understood!
Found it. This was the China element in the game. As one of the seven founders of the game, the China team had to reflect the China element. The India team could make a big deal out of Naga in the game and promote Indian culture. Japan and Greece even had a dispute over the production of Greek mythology. There were even rumors that the United Kingdom team directly tampered with Noah's Ark to serve their own players. Then, as a responsible country, China team couldn't let others feel that it was unfair!
In her excitement, Xiao Fang immediately made up her mind. "It's the moving island! Let's find the moving island! "
The commander frowned. "Warrior, are you serious?"
Xiao Fang smiled and said, "Of course I'm serious. Is it hard to find?"
The commander said in a deep voice, "Of course it's hard!"
I wouldn't have looked if it wasn't hard! No matter how advanced her boyfriend was, he couldn't possibly search the world for such a strange thing, right? This was the time to show her value.
Xiao Fang said seriously, "I'm willing to give all the assets that the fleet is carrying to the team to support this exploration. Is that okay?"
The commander was shocked. "That's a huge sum of money, and this kind of operation has almost no chance of success. Warrior, have you thought about it?"
As long as she was willing to go! Xiao Fang smiled and said, "I don't care about the assets! Almost no chance of success doesn't mean absolutely no chance of success, right? "
The commander nodded. "That's right! Summing up the rumors of this moving island for hundreds of years, the only clue we have is that this moving island hasn't appeared in the vicinity of any big forces, and the sea near the desolate border matches this characteristic. In other words, this exploration doesn't conflict with our original goal. It's just that we have to slow down the speed of the exploration by ten times. "
Xiao Fang was overjoyed. "Then, does the commander agree?"
The commander smiled and said, "Of course! The Warrior's determination and great rewards have aroused the passion of explorers like us! "
Xiao Fang smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll leave it to you, commander!"
The commander smiled and said, "No problem. Even if we fail in the end, the Warrior won't be left empty-handed. The long voyage will train the Warrior into a qualified navigator. This is the most valuable asset of the Warrior!"
— System Notification: You have obtained information about the hidden profession "Navigator"!
Navigator! Xiao Fang's smile became even brighter! Very good. When Xiao Li and her boyfriend's brother return, she would give them a big surprise. She would let them know that there was a hidden profession like navigator in this world!
