Sword and Magic and Clear Flow

Holly Village is inconspicuous among the tens of thousands of villages in the Peace Continent. Humans and orcs live together. The main livelihood is growing wheat, grinding flour, raising sheep, and selling wool.

The village chief's house has no bureaucratic features at all, thanks to the small number of villagers in the village, the first bear orc NPC I saw was the village chief himself.

Village head: "What a coincidence, I am the village head, and you guys discovered it at a glance!"

Sandy: "No...you are so big..."

The village head smiled shyly: "Welcome to the two adventurers who have come from afar. Is there anything I can do for you?"

Sean: "It's like this. Our two brothers are from the small town of Ajili. We wanted to invest in horse ranches and farms. We came to Holly Village after being introduced by the mayor of the town."

Village Chief: "Oh, Kumar, the mayor of Ajili, is my elder brother, and I am his younger brother Bell. Are you two brothers too? What a fate, we will all be friends from now on!" After looking at the two of them, they were very enthusiastic.

Sandy secretly thought, I never thought that I, a 1.9-meter-high man, would have a day when I was picked up and lifted off my toes...

The village chief took the two of them to visit Holly Village, and finally delineated a large piece of wasteland to plant thatch, alfalfa and other forages; he also bought an old farm for renovation, and planted corn, oats, peas and other crops in a few idle farmlands.

Sean just exchanged [-] gold coins at the bank service point in the small town of Ajili, met the conditions of the VIP customer of the Gnome Bank, and applied for the virtual gold card of the Peace Continent for free, and also sent money to his cousin's bank account to let him also play the game I made a picture here, which made Sandy stunned for a while. Is my cousin so good at playing games?Krypton gold as soon as he came up, not only krypton himself, but also support him...

The cloth money bag is a basic item for each player after logging in. It does not take up the capacity of the game backpack. The upper limit is [-] gold coins, which is equivalent to [-] silver coins or [-] copper coins. You can also spend [-] gold coins at the bank to upgrade it into a leather money bag. Expand to a thousand gold coins.

The money bag is enough for small transactions, and it feels great to grab a handful of shiny gold coins. The disadvantage is that after being killed by other players or humanoid monsters, not only will you lose a piece of random jewelry, but you will also lose it in the money bag. 5%~10% rate of money.

The Gnome Bank's gold card charges a processing fee of 5 gold, and the minimum stored value is [-], with no upper limit. It can be traded with NPCs or players who also have gold cards. A [-]% tax is charged, and the balance is less than [-] and cannot be traded, which is equivalent to the money being held by the Gnome Bank. Only when the gold card is canceled and no longer used, it will be converted into Huaguo Federation currency and returned to the player's real bank account.

The advantages are obvious. Although jewelry will still be picked up by corpses, the bound gold card can guarantee that one's money will not be lost.When the Heping Continent was first launched, the Gold Card holders were mainly presidents who needed to build guilds, studio owners who opened shops and started business, and complained that the transaction tax was too much of a scam. Several times, after all, no one's money comes from the wind.

Sean signed the land deed, the purchase of building materials and the employment contract of the villagers on the spot, and paid [-] gold coins by swiping his card.Can't help but sigh, the rural land in the early stage of the game is really too cheap... At this time, the system message box of both of them showed the prompt of "acquire the friendship of Bell, the village chief of Holly; obtain the friendship of Kumar, the mayor of Ajili".

Village Chief Beier rubbed his hands in embarrassment: "I still have some clansmen who are hunters in the mountains. Their lives are very difficult. If they can come to the village to beg for a living..."

Xiao En waved his hand: "Come on, please. In the future, you will need manpower to build houses, plant land, herd cattle and horses. If you have money, everyone can earn money together to build a beautiful Holly Village!"

The village chief's eyes were filled with tears, and he picked Xiao En up and turned around several times.After carefully collecting the contract, all the villagers were immediately summoned—magic broadcasting, magic sound transmission...there must be none—standing on the small slope and roaring, everyone came to the small courtyard of the village chief's house, Curiously watching the two unfamiliar faces.

The village chief loudly announced the good news that the big boss came to the village to open a new ranch and hire villagers.At this time, it was the slack season, and the villagers NPCs were all smiling, and they came over to hug wolves and normal humans to hug Sean and Sandy.

Afterwards, the enthusiastic villagers were busy baking bread, stewing vegetables, killing two sheep and having an open-air barbecue, and held a simple naming ceremony—from now on, "Shawn Farm" and "Sandy Ranch" are located in Holly Village Anjia has settled down, and it is consistent with the naming style of the entire continent, low-key enough to not attract the attention of other players.

Sandy is immersed in great happiness, overbearing cousin!Strong pampering!Spend huge sums of money to contract the land for the younger brother!

Horses are a man's romance, and mounts have the same status as warships and mechas in the peaceful continent. It saves time and energy and is also a sharp weapon for pretending to be handsome.Especially knights, if they don't have a good horse, they are embarrassed to use their professional skills in public.

The horse ranch can be said to be a steady profit, and it was even a lucrative business in the early days of the service.

Although Sandy is tall and looks mature and stable when he is not talking, he is actually a child with a soft heart.In his previous life, Sean joined him in the Battle Banner of Glory and allowed him to register as a paladin. He quickly exposed his shortcomings. He was not as daring as other knights. His output was low, and his positioning and agility also hindered him.

When farming elite monsters in the field and playing dungeons, other players in the guild often try to persuade him to dismiss him, and they will send him to lead the battle with sweet words when exploring new maps and opening up new dungeons. Anyway, no matter how he dies, he will have his "administrator" cousin Brush him back...

Sandy didn't want his cousin to be criticized in the guild, and he felt too much pressure and couldn't enjoy the game.Later, I quit the guild and concentrated on traveling and looking at the scenery in the holographic world of the Peaceful Continent. I accidentally discovered that players can also manage agriculture in the village, so I bought a small piece of land to farm and raise horses, and invited my "girlfriend" Liuli Qingyan He hoped that she would accompany him to experience the pastoral life——as a result, Liuli turned her head lightly and told Aoxue Jinbei.

After all, it was the president of the Great Guild, and the Aoxuezui Jinbei had a vicious vision. He immediately sent the core management to buy land and raise horses in Sandy's village, and bought Sandy's land half by emotional card and half by force.At the same time, a large number of players were sent all over the world to "investigate" the rural areas that they didn't care about at all, and finally found that the Snowman Kingdom in the north had four distinct seasons and vast grasslands, which was very suitable for raising horses.

Among them, Holly Village, which is close to the border of the East Empire, has abundant water and grass, and has a large area of ​​unowned land, is the most important. The Battle Banner of Glory will soon take this place into its pocket.Of course, there is no such thing as hiring NPCs. Random players from the guild can occupy the entire village and even the town. Players have game backpacks and teleportation scrolls. I don’t know how convenient it is to do business. Compared with honest and simple villager NPC have natural advantages.

When other big guilds complained that the price of horses is getting higher and higher and they are always out of stock, while guarding the horse market in the main city and restricting casual people (unnamed small guild players, free players without guilds) from buying horses to ensure the supply of their own guilds, the original The nameless Glory Battle Banner was born out of nowhere, with tough tactics, almost monopolizing the horse market of the entire East Empire, attracting countless players to join the guild, and becoming the largest guild in the Peaceful Continent.

Liuli Qingyan made the first contribution and hugged the president's thigh. As for Sandy, she completely made a wedding dress for someone else and failed to keep her "girlfriend".

Sean looked at his cousin who was dizzy and completely unaware that there was anything wrong with playing MMORPG into Happy Ranch, and an imperceptible tenderness and pity flashed in his eyes.In this life, no one can take away what belongs to Sandy.

The villagers will not cut corners and commit crimes at all. These AI-controlled NPCs are more reassuring than players. Sean handed over the farm to them for construction, and brought the letter of introduction from the village chief Bell and the best carriage in the village. , and go deep into the interior of the Snowman Kingdom with my cousin.

Many small towns and villages in the game do not have teleportation arrays, and can only communicate with the teleportation arrays that the player has personally logged in. If you don’t have a mount yourself, you can only rent a carriage provided by the NPC to run the map.Spending money is rewarding. The speed of the carriage setting is extremely fast, as if shrinking to an inch, but as a passenger, it is difficult to detect this.

Along the way, the sky is high and the clouds are light, the grass is in the sky, the mountains in the distance are covered by deep and shallow green forests, and the highest point is covered with a small piece of lovely snow like cream, and occasionally you can see the leisurely Cattle and horses, white sheep... just no people in sight.

The contents released during the public beta are not small. Players can also see the town preview and the holographic photo of the current consul on the system interface when selecting the birthplace. This has resulted in the rule of the orc king, and the territory is mainly mixed with orcs, humans, and dwarves. The Snowman Kingdom where they live has become the most unpopular choice, bar none.

It doesn't really affect the guild's occupation of the capital Grande and the main city, but other small towns and small towns are empty.

The overall style of the Snowman Kingdom is quaint—or crude.Although the building is solid and tall, there is almost no artistic beauty, as if it was randomly piled up by the designer with a slap on the head, and he is very careless.

Orcs are essentially human beings with the characteristics of beasts. They will not transform, only retaining ears and tails. The ethnic group is basically cats and canines. They are not cute cats and dogs, but large carnivores such as bears, wolves, ligers, etc. , strong women and strong men.The burly figure, knotted muscles, and sharp lines obviously do not meet the aesthetics of most Huaguo players, the kind that no cute elements can save.Although there are also foxes and leopards with beautiful images, their force and irritable personality are not inferior to other ethnic groups, and they never choose to sit down and have a drink if a fight can solve the problem.

Although the grassland of the Snowman Kingdom is considered one of the wilderness maps, there are no wild animals to be seen.In order to protect the animal husbandry, large wild animals have been driven into the deep mountains and old forests, and the beasts are the wildest beasts in this grassland...

As for the dwarves that are also common in the territory, they are all short and stocky, with thick hair as their beauty, and beards so thick that they can't even see their faces clearly. The dwarfs in beautiful little uniforms with exquisite and lovely faces formed a terrible contrast.

Orcs and dwarves have their own beliefs just like vampires and elves. As a result, the Temple of Light is not very popular here, and there are few large temples that allow players to register priests and paladins; moreover, orcs have shamans, which are not a system of magic, and dwarves are more It is a completely anti-magic physique. In addition to the daily operation of the teleportation array, the branch of the Magic Association here has not opened as rich business as other branches in other countries. The mages and warlocks registered in Snowman have to often learn skills across borders. It can be said that the living environment Very unfriendly at all.

On the contrary, Chongwu's combative social atmosphere and unique geographical environment have made the mercenary union and hunter union flourish, with dense branches.

Sean thinks that the combination of furry ears and tail and rough appearance is quite cute.The few encounters in his previous life also made him fall in love with the orc NPC's upright character and his loyalty to his friends.

He and Sandy enjoyed the grass-scented breeze on their faces comfortably, and the obvious jolt of the carriage did not detract from their elegance.After passing through the vast grassland and a large forest to Han Beiyin Town, when he stopped to register the teleportation array, he ran into a few sporadic players.
