Chapter 561: Chapter 561: Applying for Territory


    Hearing Li Yao’s words, the guild members were all quite excited. Li arranged them to take turns offline to rest, waiting for the time toe when they could start work.


    As for Li Yao, he directly used the Hearthstone, as he needed to save time. After all, voyaging by ship to the sandbar would waste quite a bit of time.


    Li Yao didn’t return to the guild’s base, but headed straight for the Royal Administrative district.


    This was a massive office area where affairs concerning the territory radiating from the Undead Capital would first be aggregated.


    Only major affairs or matters rted to war would be reported to the Royal District for the Queen to make her decision.


    As for minor issues, naturally, there is no need to trouble the Queen. Otherwise, she would be swamped with work all day without even having to do anything.


    And to the officials, the affairs of the guild were just that.


    In the eyes of the NPCs, the yers were considered children, and their guild organization was more like a game of house.


    A guild base can be set up within the main city, but the restrictions are too many, and it can at most serve as a small office site.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    For a guild to grow, it must have its own territory, so the question arises.<div>


    The bigwigs think it’s simple. New recruits want territory? Sure, no problem.


    In the Ancient God World, there are many territories either undeveloped or contested. You can all go there and have fun.


    If you want to establish a guild peacefully in controlled territory, that’s simply impossible. This is done with an attitude of giving it a try.


    If you can open up territory, it’s equivalent to having a Lord under your seal, and the main city will also have more tax revenue andnd. Naturally, everyone is willing to do such a good thing.


    On the other hand, the bigwigs of both sides hope to unionize disputes. This means that it is a period of alliance, and both camps are rtively weak.


    Having guildspete and probe each other is just perfect. After all, they’re all kids, and even if things get out of hand, the handbrake can still be pulled in time, right?


    Li Yao dashed all the way to the guild office and went straight to the office of Baron Muger.


    Nowadays, Li Yao is the Queen’s favorite. He can freely enter and exit the most secret Council Hall and manybs which are inessible to the Undead ministers. This is not a secret, so naturally, wherever he goes, the Undead Guardians would salute Li Yao and then pretend not to see him. They have no intention of stopping him.


    Baron Muger naturally recognizes Li Yao, and quickly greets him: “Aren’t you busy with the guild’s affairs? Howe you have free time to drop by?”


    Li Yao nodded, directly sat down at Muger’s invitation, and said: “I dare not disturb the Lord Baron in his office. Ie here for official business.”


    Baron Muger, not because he is now a Baron, but because he was a minor baron among the High Elves in his lifetime.


    It’s just a title. Due to the scanty poption of the High Elves, the baron doesn’t have any territory. Having arge manor signifies wealth.


    Despite not being strong, but he’s good at administrative affairs. The Queen deliberately ces such a smart person in this position, which is not an exile.


    In fact, the Queen, like the leaders of other factions, did not hold much hope for the so-called newbie guild.


    But after Li Yao’s analysis and exnation, the Queen started to take it seriously. Naturally, the main Undead City shifted its focus onto the guilds, and many guilds from the Dark Camp came here to root themselves.


    Compared with the deserted state in the previous life, the Undead Capital has now be thergest gathering ce for yers in the Dark Camp, with prosperity outstripping that of the main city of the Dark Camp.


    The more yers, the more tax revenue naturally increases. The Queen realized its advantages and understood that Li Yao was not scaremongering. Henceforth, she paid more attention to the guilds and sent her capable general to handle this matter.


    “Official business? Here? It’s just some petty issues from the new recruits all the time. Sigh.”, Muger seemed to remember that Li Yao was also one of the so-called new recruits and quickly exined: “I’m not referring to you. You have received the Queen’s legacy, and you will surely have a seat here in the near future. You’re naturally iparable with those people.”


    Li Yao waved his hand, indicating he didn’t mind. After all, what Muger said was true. yers are now of too low a rank and too weak, hardly noticeable in the NPC’s eyes.<div>


    “Lord Baron, do you think the Queen would y a useless chess piece?” Li Yao said indifferently.


    Muger was stunned. The Queen was famously domineering when she was alive, and she never exined anything she did. But on reflection, she had a reason for every move. With the Queen’s personality, if she didn’t like him, she would have exiled him directly. Why would she use this method?


    Then, the only possibility is that the Queen takes the guild very seriously. That’s why she put him in control of the overall situation.


    Muger stood up, bowed deeply to Li Yao, and said: “Your words have awakened me from my dream. Unfortunately, I’ve followed the Queen for many years but failed to see through this. It’s no wonder why the Queen values you so much. Today, I will repay the favor.”<div>


    Li Yao waved his hand and said: “Lord Baron, you’re too kind. Indeed, I dide by today intending to get some work done.”


    “Please speak.”, Muger’s mood suddenly cleared up, and all the gloom of the past few days was swept away.


    “I came to apply for territory.”, Li Yao responded.


    Muger was shocked and asked uncertainly: “Didn’t the supply ship just head there today? Applying for territory already, isn’t it a bit too early?”


    The so-called application for territory has two implications. On one hand, it’s a deration that this piece of territory henceforth belongs to the jurisdiction of the Undead Capital. On the other hand, the Undead Capital authorizes the said guild to manage this territory.


    The key thing is, after applying for a territory, the monsters around willunch a siege.


    This is what’s known as a monster siege. Monsters also have territorial consciousness.


    The distribution of monsters is not fixed, and fights among different monsters are quitemon.


    Reced by other races, they naturally won’t give up this territory. As soon as it bes a territory, monsters will swarm in andunch the fiercest attack.


    The quantity and level of monsters, as well as the scale, depend on the location.


    Naturally, choosing a base location has be an art. Setting up in a location with too low a level is pointless.


    But if the level is too high, it’s over. Even if a base is established, it’s likely to be leveled by the monsters.


    That’s why the current choices for base locations are in areas of higher level with no monsters around.<div>


    Of course, finding a good base location requires a lot of work.


    Now, some thieves even explore different maps, just to find a good terrain, and then sell it to a guild thatcks strong power but wants to set up a base.


    “Excuse my forwardness, but ording to my intelligence, you have been calcted against and lost the first right to allocate resources in the sandbar. There are many guilds around, why not wait for them to establish their guilds, apply for territory, and then there won’t be any nearby monsters for Starfire guild. Wouldn’t it be great if there were no monsters attacking the city?”, the Baron kindly reminded Li Yao…
