Although The Capital of Glory didn't take down the new Stronghold, their two Strongholds weren't in trouble either. They even got what they deserved. At most, they were angry at being played. Now, he needed to think about who he should take revenge on – Blood Red War Flag or Ruling Sword.
Blood Red War Flag said that they were also innocent. They lost 30,000 gold coins to protect the situation of their Stronghold.
Majin Temple said that they were even more innocent. They lost 30,000 gold coins to buy fake information, as well as the auction fees, potions and lost equipment.
Ruling Sword expressed that no one was innocent. Who did I provoke? Isn't it normal for me to bid for the Barrenlands? Why can Glory Capital bid for my land, but I can't bid for yours? What's wrong with me not fighting? Can't I bid for more money for fun? Majin Temple came to attack them, so it was reasonable for them to retaliate. Who told them to be so useless?
In the end, the winner was Ruling Sword.
First of all, they managed to protect Blood Red War Flag's Stronghold.
It wasn't that he and Jade Flower Lover had a good chat, but that Blood Red War Flag only had one Stronghold, while The Capital of Glory already had two. Once Blood Red War Flag lost their Stronghold, they would need to choose a new target next time. Ruling Sword's strength wasn't the best, but they had two Strongholds, so they could easily become a target.
Once The Capital of Glory took down their Stronghold, they would have three. Next time, they could take down a fourth.
The Capital of Glory had enough people to take down a fourth and fifth Stronghold, but Ruling Sword didn't. If there was a chance to stop The Capital of Glory, Lu Li wouldn't hesitate to do so. He wouldn't even hesitate to harm others, not to mention that there was still profit to be made from this transaction.
He just didn't think that Jade Flower Lover would be so shameless!
Too shameless!
Secondly, he made money. This Stronghold War was the most profitable for Ruling Sword. The Barrenlands Stronghold had a net income of 20,000 gold coins. The Black Sea Coast Stronghold was also a source of income. The equipment that was picked up was also a source of income. The Grey Valley Stronghold was also a source of income, and the equipment that was harvested was also a source of income.
All he had to pay was the cost of the potions used during the battle.
Just like that, the curtains fell on this palace struggle. Everyone knew who won and who lost. The next Stronghold War would definitely be more exciting.
Oh, that's not right. Lu Li had other gains.
Genhao San was the one who communicated with the mercenaries.
"On behalf of Ruling Sword, I would like to invite Ant Bro to join the club. In the future, we will be in the same boat and create glory together!"
"I'm willing to join Ruling Sword," Crippled Black Ant said without any pretense. His goal in taking this job was to get in touch with Ruling Sword and then find an opportunity to join Ruling Sword. He didn't expect it to go so smoothly.
Then, Genhao San went to find the minstrel Big Dog Li and extended an invitation according to the original words.
"Don't tell me you don't want to pay up!" Big Dog Li expressed his indignation.
"I … how could I?" Genhao San finally knew why Lu Li was hesitating. He really wanted to throw a gold coin at him and tell him to get lost.
"Just pay up. Join then join," the minstrel Big Dog Li said with a sigh of relief. "Ah, that's right. The Jiangnan Ancient Clan and I are a bit dirty. I don't know why, but they always want to kill me. Then, I casually kill quite a few of their people. Can Ruling Sword withstand this pressure?"
I also want to kill you, Genhao San thought to himself. He weakly replied, "I should be able to withstand it."
"Alright, as long as you can withstand it. If you guys can't withstand it anymore, just let me know. I, Big Dog Li, definitely won't drag you guys down," Big Dog Li promised as he patted his chest.
"We've fought the Gangnam Royals before, and we won," Genhao San said through gritted teeth.
This person was so cheap. With just a few words, he could provoke people's anger. He deeply suspected that he was doing this on purpose. He could already imagine how miserable the people in the guild who came into contact with this guy would be in the future.
In reality, Big Dog Li's days in Ruling Sword weren't miserable. There were so many people in Ruling Sword, and he easily found a few like-minded people. Together, they were called the Four Gentlemen of Ruling. However, everyone called them the Four Despicable Guests.
The other Berserker that Lu Li mentioned was called Purple Dandelion. The name seemed very artistic, but in reality, he was a slick old fox. Of course, he wouldn't refuse the opportunity to join a large club.
These three who joined were members of the elite group. In the future, if they performed well, they could enter the core elite group.
As for the remaining seven expert mercenaries, once they heard that they could only become ordinary members, four of them refused on the spot. They received their payment and left, while the other three agreed to be incorporated.
Lu Li couldn't give them too good of a treatment all of a sudden. Otherwise, it would be unfair to the older members of the guild.
In reality, these people were very strong. As long as they showed good character and loyalty to the club, they could easily be promoted to a higher position. The key was whether they had the patience.
The addition of six expert mercenaries proved that Lu Li's strategy was completely feasible.
As such, the mercenary hall could often see recruitment announcements from Ruling Sword. Sometimes they were looking for people to do quests, sometimes they were looking for people to do Instance Dungeons, and sometimes they were even looking for people to train with (after reaching level 70).
Soon, everyone found that Majin Temple, Azure Guard and other clubs were gradually opening up to this.
The mercenary hall was once again bustling with noise and excitement.
Soon, there was another version update. The new version brought new content, but there were three most important points.
First, players could freely choose the direction of their own class development. In other words, players could pay for the conversion of their Innate Talents. There were also some relatively special quests or NPCs that provided a small probability of returning Skill Points to zero and resetting them.
The second was the introduction of a new Instance Dungeon. The Zerg Instance Dungeon had begun to appear on the game stage.
The last one was about the revision of the Alterac Valley Battlefield. This battlefield was connected to the entire world, which meant that players from any server could meet here. Those who fought alongside you or fought to the death with you could all be foreign players.
There were also some minor adjustments to the professions.
The Mage profession had been strengthened — everyone usually skipped over this point.
The Thief profession had been strengthened, but overall, it was pretty much the same as before.
Lu Li didn't really like and wasn't very good at Mages, so he chose to be a Thief. As the System's godson, although he wasn't strengthened like the Mages, at least he didn't drop to rock bottom.
Paladins were still the same.
The Berserker profession's explosive power had been strengthened, but their endurance had been reduced. Even their defense had been reduced, which meant that after Whirlwind ended, it was best to close your eyes and imagine an angel spreading its wings.
