I am surrounded by beauties in the Gods and Demons Game Center

After a night of lovemaking, the waiter brought a letter to Dana. After Dana opened it, she showed it to Zhang Wei without hiding anything.

"What do you think?" Dana asked Zhang Wei. The letter asked Dana to keep Zhang Wei in the Viscount's territory and wait for further orders.

"Let's wait and see." Zhang Wei didn't take this matter too seriously.

A few months later, after lunch, the same waiter gave Dana another letter, which asked Zhang Wei to go to the capital to meet the king and discuss the territory token in detail. The last part of the letter asked Dana to go back to the Grindol family.

It was obvious that someone wanted to separate Zhang Wei and Dana and prevent Dana from accompanying Zhang Wei to the royal capital.

"I won't leave." Dana didn't want to be separated from Zhang Wei. After spending such a long time together, Dana became even more fascinated by Zhang Wei.

"It's okay, go home, your family must miss you very much." Zhang Wei comforted Dana and asked her to do as the letter asked. Zhang Wei knew that the content of the letter was probably what the royal family wanted.

"The journey will definitely not be smooth. If I'm here, they will be more or less cautious." Dana expressed her thoughts. Although she was not strong, her status was there after all. Even if someone wanted to harm Zhang Wei, they would be hesitant if they were afraid of hurting her by mistake, thus giving Zhang Wei the right way.

"I understand, dear, but you also have to know that after all, you don't have a title. If they fail repeatedly, they might attack you in desperation. If you go home with peace of mind, I will feel more at ease." Zhang Wei gently stroked Dana's long hair and constantly took care of Dana's emotions.

"Okay." Dana knew that Zhang Wei was telling the truth. If the royal family was pushed too far, they might really kill her as well, or even expand the scope and kill her family as well. She couldn't sacrifice her entire family for her love.

On the day Zhang Wei left for the royal capital, only Dana and Viscount Rosales came to see him off.

According to Viscount Rosales, he will temporarily manage the territory for Zhang Wei. After Zhang Wei confirms with the royal family how to repay the 10 billion dinars, he will consider whether to sign a gambling agreement with Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei knew that Viscount Rosales had only said half of what he said. The other half was that if something happened to Zhang Wei or something unexpected happened, Viscount Rosales would still be the lord of the territory.

Considering that the reasons Viscount Rosales gave made some sense, Zhang Wei did not point it out, and agreed that during the period when he was in the royal capital, Viscount Rosales would exercise the ruling power of the territory on his behalf.

Not long after Zhang Wei left the city, he was caught up by a team of adventurers. The team leader was wearing an adventurer's C-level silver badge (level 4 combat power mark).

"Brother, my name is Mato Izumi. We are going to Chaudhry City. Do you want to join us?" The team leader Mato Izumi spoke to Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei glanced at the people in Izumi Mato's team and found that except for him, who was a silver-level adventurer, the others were all bronze-level adventurers.

"Your convoy is interesting. There are bound to be bandits and monsters along the way. Why are you taking a team of bronzes to Chaudhry City?" Zhang Wei was a little confused as to what Izumi Mato was trying to do.

Izumi Mato chuckled and said, "Brother, what you are doing is what we are doing. We are all adventurers, so there is no need to hide it. Everyone knows that the dungeon in Rosales Town has entered a dormant period and it will take some time to recover. We all rely on the dungeon for our livelihood. If it doesn't work here, we have to go somewhere else to make a living. And we have also obtained the consent of the guild to change our location."

"The city of Chaudhry is the territory of Count Rami Chaudhry, but it seems that he doesn't care much about the safety of the surrounding official roads. Even if this place enters a dormant period, you can go to other baron territories. You are a silver-level person, leading a team of bronzes. What will you do if you encounter the enemy on the road?" Zhang Wei raised the doubts in his mind. He felt that there must be other hidden reasons behind what Izumi Mato did.

Izumi Mato knew that what Zhang Wei said was right, so he chuckled and did not answer. He and Zhang Wei were not familiar with each other, so there was no need to tell Zhang Wei everything, right?

Instead, several bronze-level adventurers in the team began to urge them. They also knew how risky it was to leave the city with such a cheap convoy, and naturally did not want to waste time and thus increase their own risks. Especially after they saw that Zhang Wei was also a bronze-level adventurer, they subconsciously thought that it was just the head of the team who wanted to solicit business, so they became even more impatient.

"Brother, why don't we go together? We'll leave first." Under the urging of those bronze adventurers, Izumi Mato said goodbye to Zhang Wei. Of course, this was another way to attract customers. That is, I'm leaving, and if you don't agree, there will be no chance.

Zhang Wei was not fooled. He walked a few steps to the side, gave up the official road, and watched Izumi Mato's team continue to move towards Chaudhry City.

Actually, Zhang Wei was also going to Chaudhuri City, because in order to consolidate its ruling position, the kingdom had its own rules when dividing up territories. If Zhang Wei wanted to go to the royal capital, he had to pass through the earldom, marquisate, and dukedom before he could reach the royal capital. Whether the journey would be peaceful or not depended on whether the lords were willing to spend money to maintain the safety of the surrounding official roads.

Generally speaking, the lord would give money to the Adventurer's Guild on a regular basis, and the Guild would issue bounty missions of different levels based on the threat situation, and the adventurers would be the ones to complete them.

If the threat level is not high, the Adventurer's Guild will not even issue a mission. Anyway, the caravans and their guards have to take the official road, so they can just clean them up.

However, as the level of the dungeon increases, the territory to which the dungeon belongs will randomly spawn monsters or even monster nests under the secret settings of the gods and demons. As the level of these monsters or monster nests increases, the cost of generating them will also increase. Some lords who never leave the city may, for reasons of cost, leave them alone until these monsters or monster nests develop into a disaster level, and then the brave men supported by the royal family will take action.

And our Lord Count Rami Chaudhry is a very stingy person.

This also made it difficult for the three viscounts under him to develop economic trade. After all, the earl did not spend money to eliminate the monsters, and the three viscounts did not want to be taken advantage of.

The private chambers of commerce, which also did not want to be taken advantage of, simply stopped doing business here after making several unprofitable deals. Only the royal chamber of commerce was left, which had to trade regularly due to liability issues to maintain the minimum survival needs between territories.

However, this was limited to regular trade, and the royal family would never take the initiative to increase the size of the caravans or the frequency of travel.

As a result, the official road fell into a vicious circle and became less peaceful.

Is it possible not to take the official road? Of course you can, as long as you are not afraid of getting lost. There is no navigation or positioning in this world. Even Zhang Wei, an old hand, has to be honest and take the official road in unfamiliar places to avoid getting lost and causing trouble.

What Izumi Mato just said about the dormant period of the dungeon and Izumi Mato's behavior of taking adventurers to other territories reminded Zhang Wei that although trade had declined due to Count Chaudhry's laziness and inaction, each territory was basically closed and doing its own thing, but because of the dungeon, it did not affect the development and taxation of the territory.

However, the underground city of Rosales Town entered a dormant period because it was penetrated by Zhang Wei. This also resulted in the adventurers, the original main force of tax collection, having no source of income. It would then become the norm for them to form teams and go to other territories, which would also lead to a large loss of the main force of tax collection in Rosales Town. This was indeed a big problem.

Therefore, Zhang Wei decided that after arriving in Chaudhry City, he would go to the temple of the goddess of economy and trade in charge of the underground city to inquire about the dormancy status of the underground city in Rosales Town.
