In the secret meeting room of Irolyn's City Hall, Dafei was received by Mayor Osselman for a private banquet. Of course, a lackey like Da Wei could not enter at such an occasion and could only wait outside.
Osselman laughed. "Mr. Dafei is a hero recommended by Irolyn. You completed the impossible task of the Kingdom. You are the pride of the Light Alliance, the pride of the Kingdom of the Elves, and the pride of Irolyn! To celebrate your victory, cheers! "
It's good that you know! Your achievements must have increased greatly. Why are you thanking me? Dafei laughed. "Not at all, it's all thanks to the mayor's recommendation. Cheers! "
After exchanging pleasantries, Osiriman laughed and said, "Mr. Dafei, this time we are here to talk about the repayment of the debt!"
Oh, it was time to talk business. The debt was simple. Just throw a big ship to me. If not, I would have to hang myself if I couldn't pay it off. This was the last thing that creditors wanted.
Dafei sighed. "Yes, yes. Whenever I think about this debt, I feel uneasy. I really want to do business, but I don't have a big ship. Mayor, you have to help me think of a way."
Osselman clapped and laughed. "Mr. Dafei, don't panic. I'm here to help you!"
Dafei was overjoyed! The person who cared about you the most in this world was your creditor!
Osselman's expression turned serious. "I want to appoint you as the chairman of the Sea Trade Association. What do you think?"
Dafei was shocked. "Sea Trade Association!"
The Sea Trade Association, as the name suggested, was a guild that ran cargo on the sea. It was actually another name for guilds. Guilds in the game were not just a chat room for players. They were also organizations that could be upgraded and developed. The players' hero skills were divided into four main branches: Army, Lord, Adventure, and Scholar. Similarly, the functions of guilds were divided into several main branches.
For example, the guild that specialized in sea trade was the Sea Trade Association. The advantage of guilds was that players could earn extra experience and reputation points, as well as attack and defense bonuses at sea. Trade Chambers specialized in land transportation. The advantage of guilds was the players' logistics skills, which gave them bonus damage. Adventurer Guilds specialized in Adventurer Guilds. The advantages of Adventurer Guilds were the increased drop rate of monsters killed by Adventurer Guilds. Adventurer Guilds also had an easier time discovering buried treasures. The most mainstream was the War Guild, which could greatly increase the attributes of the players' troops.
In reality, as long as a Guild had enough money and enough people doing quests, it was entirely possible for them to advance together and develop in all aspects.
For example, from the open beta until the last day of the closed beta, the attributes of Star Guild were: Overall Level 152 (Level 72 War, Level 30 Sea Merchant, Level 30 Adventure, Level 20 Trade).
The effect of a Level 70 War Guild was a 7% increase to the various Attributes of Guild players. This 7% was not to be underestimated. It was equivalent to a battle of ten thousand people, and one side suddenly had 700 more soldiers.
Of course, Guilds weren't just used to buff players. More importantly, many quests with generous rewards could only be obtained by joining a Guild. This was especially true for large Guilds with high levels and Reputation. It was a big project, so of course, only big companies with a good reputation could accept it.
However, with so many benefits of a Guild, it wasn't that easy to create one. In short, they had to continuously do quests to accumulate Reputation, and so on and so forth. It was so annoying. Up until now, more than ten days after the start of the game, there wasn't a single Guild established in the China region, no, the entire world.
And such a complicated and troublesome Guild establishment process hadn't been carried out, and the position of Mayor was directly given to him, a Guild Master? This was completely against the system's' principles'!
Dafei said in disbelief, "Sir, my Reputation is enough to establish a Guild?"
Osselman shook his head and said seriously, "There's no need to establish one. There's already a Sea Merchant Group, the Dragon Cavalry Sea Merchant Group. This is a Sea Merchant Group with a long history. It's even older than my grandfather. It used to enjoy a great reputation in the kingdom and has always been the pride of Elloline. However, a hundred years ago, the Dragon Cavalry Sea Merchant Group deviated from its course due to a storm and mistakenly entered the Sea God's sacred place, the Sea God's Lip Tower. At that time, the captain of the ship was blinded by greed and stole the sacred place's treasures. This angered the Sea God, and in the next few years, all the ships that participated in the theft sank in a shipwreck. This was a devastating blow to the safety and reputation of the entire Sea Merchant Group!"
Dafei's heart skipped a beat! He understood now. There really wasn't a good thing if it was cheap!
Osselman continued, "Very soon, the Sea Merchant Group went bankrupt and was resold. Then, new ships were incorporated into the Sea Merchant Group, but it was useless. The Sea God's anger wasn't just directed at the ships, but at the entire Sea Merchant Group! Now, no one dares to take over the Sea Merchant Group, and it has become a shell Sea Merchant Group, quietly lying in the kingdom's Sea Merchant Group register. A hundred years have passed, and the Sea Merchant Group has been downgraded year by year. This is the last year. If it is downgraded again, this Dragon Cavalry Sea Merchant Group with a long history and limitless glory will be forcefully canceled and will no longer exist! Mr. Dafei, do you understand what I mean? "
Dafei was shocked. "Sir, you mean that I should take over this Sea Merchant Group?"
Osselman nodded. "That's right! You are a superhero who completed an impossible mission. You are also the youngest and most promising navigator. You have successfully survived two god-tier storms. You are the only person who can resist the Sea God's curse. The task of saving the Dragon Cavalry Sea Merchant Group can only be given to you! And I can guarantee that the Dragon Cavalry Sea Merchant Group is definitely worth saving. It has a long history and has developed many practical Sea Merchant Group features. These features are like the specialties of heroes, they can only be found by chance! "
— System Notification: Mayor Osselman of Iroline has issued you the Epic Quest 'The Revival of the Dragon Cavalry Sea Merchant Group'. Do you accept?
— Quest Notification: The Dragon Cavalry Sea Merchant Group has been cursed by the Sea God. So far, no ship has been spared from the sea disaster. You need to survive the Sea God's curse within a year to protect the Sea Merchant Group.
Ah pu! Dafei spurted out a mouthful of booger! The mayor was indeed the mayor. He was indeed high-end and elegant. His first move was an Epic Quest! It was just to save a Sea Merchant Group. Was there a need for an Epic Quest? What kind of heinous thing had this Sea Merchant Group done to incur the wrath of the gods? Just stealing treasures? Divine artifact level treasures? Or did they rape the beautiful priestess?
Epic Quests required caution! Dafei sighed. "Mr. Mayor, what if I fail?"
Osselman shook his head and smiled. "I believe that if Mr. Dafei is a person who does not move forward because he is afraid of failure, then Mr. Dafei's Kingdom Quest will never succeed. I have faith in you!"
Dafei sighed. "What about the big ship?"
Osselman sighed. "With Mr. Dafei's current reputation, you can't buy a big ship. Even as the mayor, I can't abuse my power. However, Mr. Dafei's current reputation allows you to use a medium-sized ship. I can personally sponsor you to buy a medium-sized ship. You can go to the captain to get it."
F * ck! How could a medium-sized ship survive?
